From New York Cor. Boston Transcript
If the times are hard in New York, there APP
pears TO be plenty Of money in the hands of
some people, at least, and they know well how
to spend it. On Thanksgiving Day the sum Of
forty-seven thousand dollars was spent in
amusements alone. or this great sum, Barnum's
Hippodrome got nearly ten Thousand dollars
and Wallack's Theatre some four thousand.
The twenty places of amuseRents were all full.
Walking on Broadway, or going in Stewards
great store, it seems as IL the wealthy classes
never dressed 80 extravagantly before as they
do now. The most costly furs, as sealakin, sa-
BILE, mink, otter, and silver fox, are worn as
never before. few days since Mrs. Benjamin
Wood, wife OF the editor OF the tina Daily Netos,
paid thirteen hundred dollars for sable muff
and boa. A fur store on Broadway has an order
from the wife of Fifth avenue millionaire for
crown Russian sable cloak, which will cost
four thousand dollars. For an ostrich skin
robe the modest sum of one thousand dollars ia
asked Fur trimming for ladies' dresses, made
Of silver fox sells for twelve dollars yard, and
ia very fashionable. The strip OF skin to which
the fur is attached, is less than an inch wide
While there is a general cutting down Of the
prices Of labor all over the city, and discharge
OF employees, the prices Of the necessaries OF
life remain at war figures, and luxury and ex-
travagance run riot. 1t remains to be seen how
long this state Of things will continue in New
York, or in any part Of the country. II we es-
cape bread riots, bank suspensions, violence,

Litigation Extraordinary.

John H. Gonzales, while getting Off at Mount
Vernon from an up passenger train on the New
York and Harlem Railroad on the 25th of Nov,
1864, was killed by down express train. His
widow sued the company and obtained
verdict for $4,000. The Court of Appeals
reversed the Judgment on the ground that Con
zaes was guilty Of costributory negligence in
getting off on the west side where there was no
platform. Then the was tried over, and at
the close of the plaintiffs case motion to dis
miss the complaint on the ground Of contribu-
tory negligence by Gonzales was granted. The
Court OF Appeals held the nonsuit improper, and
again granted new trial The railroad COM
pany was characterized as guilty Of gross negli-
gence in so arranging the time table az to have
an express train laundering by station within
one minute Of the stoppage Of an accommodate
ton train, and the company was held bound to
have platform on both sides Of the road. On
the third trial Mrs Gonzales again secured a
verdict, which on appeal, the General term set
aside on the ground that the Judge who tried it
should have granted the motion for nonsuit.
The case went for the third time to the. Court OF
Appeals and there the appeal was dismissed.
The fourth trial, which was begun some days
ago before Judge Freeman, was concluded
Tuesday the Court directing verdict in favor OF
the railroad company, on the ground that Con
tales, by the reasonable and ordinary use of his
organs Of hearing could have been warned OF
the approach of the express train. The case will
again go to the Court of Appeals. While the
highest recovery possible under the laws Of New
York is only 30 600, the accrued costs amount to
many times that sum.

Those who are expecting but little from the
Legislature soon to assemble at Dover will very
probably not be disappointed. For several days
past COMMERCIAL reporter has been gathering
information from the party managers at this end
Of the State with reference to probable subjects
of Legislation. The results Of his labors printed
elsewhere. Very little OF satisfaction could be
CLEANED, but it does seem that all measures of
reform will be tabooed by the lower counties.
The necessity for reform is everywhere admit
ted, but it is likely to fall before the spirit Of
conservatism which is abroad in the State.

spirit Of the day is the same everywhere. Little
enough truly do our city children know OF the

hearth. Santa Claus hereabouts has to be hailed
through the medium of an air-tight stove, or a
" register" but the imagination Of that blessed
period of existence ia 30 fertile and exhuberant,
that this seemingly insuperable obstacle does not
bar the way. We have heard, indeed, Of a more
than ordinarily shrewd investigator detecting
the facts in the case, and turning upon
his abashed parents with the remark
oh, what stories you have been
telling me all this time but such instances
Of worldly knowledge are happily rare. Despite

We set little value on the ssvindication'' of
man by his reelection to Office. In this
case, however, Mr.. Blaine is not only re-elect-
ed, but he has evidently drawn votes from
the ranks OF the party which concocted the
ISLANDERS against him; and while this does
not prove his innocence (Which has been am
ply proved in other ways), it does show that
his neighbors, even among the Democrats, do
not believe them to be true. When unfit
men are set up for office, they should be de-
feated; but when false charges are trumped
up to defeat man who is worthy, they ought
to have quite the opposite effect from that
they are intended to produce.-Boston Ad-

vote is anything like former years, will give
