tended sale OF the fixtures and furniture OF the
Improvement and Indemnity Company OF the city
OF New York 10 Mr.. D'orvllle Is void. far as it
concerns the assignee, the sale having been
effected when the company was insoivent. The
Judge directs the Master 10 ascertain and report

William Hastings, claiming to have formerly
practised in the federal courts OF California,
charges certain judges and other officials OF those
courts with illegal. corr upt anu highly criminal
practices" He memoriaized Congress on the

committee with suppresslng the evidence, and
therefore Instituted suit against the committee,
individually and sereraliy, Tor $4,000 damages.
BENJAMIN I. Butler, one OF the committee,
retained John Z. Deviin as counsel, and the
latter moved IN the United States District Court,
before Judge woodruff, for an order directing

tomorrow to take into consideration the esti-
mates of 1875. as subcommittee, by the Board .or
Apportonment. No provision Is made in the
budget for the salaries or the Aldermen as Super
visors, Comptroller Green claiming that they are
not entitled to such emolument.
1t Is rumored around the City Hall that Mr.. John
Kelly is about to discontinue the libel suit against
Mayor HavemeYer and Nelson J. Waterbury. The
friends OF Mr.. Kelly say that the people nave, by
their verdict In the recent elections, thoroughly
vindicated his character IN his past official career
and tnat the charges Lrumped up against nim
ought to be consigned to the waste basket as an
exploded electi0neerng document Those gentle
men say that Mr.. Kelly ought now to show his
magnanlnlty Dy abandoning those suits, and let
the venerable Mayor depart ia peace 10 his home
on the lst Of January.
The New Court House was yesterday thronged
with hundreds OF laDOrers waiting their turn to

THE TAYLOR WILL CASE.

several days ago application was made to Judge
0onohue, holding Special Term OF the Supreme
Court, Tor writ Of prohibition restraining the
Surrogate from recognizing Mr.. Tracy as executor
and Mrs. Taylor as executr1x oil the Will OF James
b. Taylor and such executor and executrlx from
discharglng their duties as such. The application
was based the late decision OF the Court OF
Appeals, reversing the decision OF the Surrogate
admitting the Will to prooate. Judge
Donohue yesterday granted tine appica-
ri0n, giving his reasons for doing SO in
the following opinion written In his usual
terse and anti-clrcumlocutionary style:-"rne
object OF toe prohibition asked s 10 stay the sur
rogates proceedings IN paying debts and making
other orders concerning the disposition or money
now In the hands of Mrs. Taylor and Mr. Tracy, as
executrIx ana executor OF James 3, Taylor, de-
ceased; all the power which those parties ever
had assumes the right OF the Surrogate to appoint
them twnicn do not), and that has been revoked
by the reversal OF his judgment. 1t seems to me
that, where the case is in court, as 1t IS, Ii Is
proper for the Court 10 stay the disposition OF the
estate until the questions OF VINO are the proper
persons TO disrrlDate and who the persons IN
teresseo III 1t are determined. Motion granted"

4 SUIT ABOUT LACE.

In the U2ited states Circuit Court. before Judge
Nathaniel Shipman and jury, the case u Messrs.
E. F. Jarray 81 Co., OF this city, against Thomas
Murphy, ex-Collector OF the port, was yesterday
brought Tor trial for the third time. On the two
previous occasions the jury failed 10 agree The
plaintiffs imported quantity OF lace, and on this
the Collector demanded an ad valOrem duty Of
sixty per cent. This demand was based on the
claim OF the Collector that the lace IL question
was silk lace, ana came within Jhe meaning OF the
tarln act Of June 20. 1864. The pantlns, Messrs.
Jafray Co., under protest. palo the amount OF
duty demanded OF them by the Collector. and then
Instituted the present suit TO recover $1,000 the
excess OF duty paid on the goous. The claim OF
the plaintiffs ls that the lace imported oy them,
and which rne subject OF the present action, Is
not silk lace but only thread lace, and that under
the tarin acts OF March, 1861, and July. 1862, 1t is
only liable to duty OF 80 per cent ad vaiorem.
The question 20 De determined IN this legal con-
troversy Is whether the lace Is known IN the
market and TO persons in the trade as silk lace or
as thread lace. The tr1al Will occupy two three

The Court Of Appeals to-day decided the case OF
the People OF the State, respondents, against
Thomas G. Fields appellant, in favor OF the appel
liant, reversing the decisions OF the lower courts
The action on which the appeal was based was
brought to recover the moneys for which judgment
was recovered upon the allegation that they were
unlawfuily and fraudulentlyp by the Comptroller
OF the City Of New York to Fields as the assignee
OF several parties who claimed pay as members OF

act of the Legislature 1869. Vsrious allegations
