TRANSPORTATION or PRISONERS.
Major Richards denies that he has any in
terest whatever in the transporting OF the pris-
6Defs either iiTori tue stati9n-h?usss to the
Police Court, or from the later PLACE
TO the almshouse; but says that h.
was acting for Thomas Robinson, the
contractor for carrying these prisoners. The
horses used for this purpose in the black-maria
are the property of Robinson and not of Major
Richards, He also states that when the Pre- Ieu {
system was introduced he did convey the pris-
oners 10 the court for about eighteen mouths,
but gave Up when the CONTRACT was made by
the police commits 1oners with Robinson, some
three years ago, since which time he has had
nothing more to do with il. The last change that
made yesterday by which prisoners are carried
TO the wOrkhouse in the black maria by Robin
son, was made by the District Commissioners
on the score OF economy, and the correspon
denee in relation to the details was carried on
with Major Richards, who is the only man
known in the arrangement to the District Com
miSsi0ners.

PRIEST CONDEMNED TO PRIsON.-A scand-
alous incident has recently taken place in Ger
many. a French priest, the Able Louis, of the
department OF the Meurthe-et- Moselle, travel
ling in steamer between CoblenZ and Mayepce
uttered an impTudent word in conversation with
one Puchler, q journalist of Berlin. Passing be-
fore the Chateau of Biberich, formerly the sum-
mer residence Of the Duke of Nassau, and since
1865 Incorporated in the domain of the King of
Prussia, the Able, after asking the mama of the
property, said, in speaking of the new proprie.
tor of the building. she Is a robber of thatlike
everything else" Puchler, at the moment of
landing, denounced the priest to a gendarme,
who Immediately arrested him. The couss-
quence was trial for lese maieste before the
correctional police of Mayence. Praise is due
to the advocate Grossman. who defended the
accused. "Puchler," said he, "belongs abso-
lutely to that class Of informers, already 50
much despised By the Romans; he has in this
way eomUromised all Germany, and we ought
TO be ASHAMED Of him. The learned counsel
added that he had often travelled in France and
had heard the most violent abuse of Louis
Philippe and Napoleon, but had never learned
that the authors of such language were de-
nounced. The Procureur du ROi replied blam-
Ing the advocate for pleading with such warmth
for FTenchman. GrOssman i'm his turn repeat-
ed that nobody in France would ever report to
the authorities a private conversation; he re-
gTetted "that such a thing had happened in
Germany, in the interest of the honor and dig
nifty of that great nation"
In spite of this defence the Able, who had
already undergone two months of preventive
imprisonment, was condemned to a further de-
tention of the same leugth.

cted on him as being interested In the max
imum fertilizer. He denied the tTuthfulness of

corroborating the opinions OF other Official ex-
perts upon the subject. Mr.. Marbury stated
that there was but fifteen tons of the material

ing said fertilizer as a nuisance and directing
its abatement, was read and adopted; Mr.. Mar
