The McLEAR ESTATE.
THE CREDITORS IN COURT-No DIVE
DEND UNTIL SEPTEMBER.

DEND UNTIL SEPTEMBER.
In the United States District Court. Thursd.v
morning, William Candy, EsQ., assignee of John
McLear " Son, bankrupts, presented a petition
setting forth that he has now In his hands nearly
too,ooo, OF which the greater portion is derived
from the individual estate of John p McLear
that the amount so far in hand from the partner
ship estate strictly is not sufficient to warrant the
expense OF aimeeting Of creditors, aud dividend
thai the debts 80 far proved against the individual
estate, amount only to 10000, (of which amount
one ciam amounting 10 over 5000, the assignee
believes TO be illegal and void and has taken pro-
ceedings to have it set aside) and that after nav
ing the individual debts In full under the Law the
balance would 70 into the partnership funds to be-
divided; The petition further represented that
the character OF much of the property of the 6-In
is such that 1t cannot be rapidly converted NTH
out the most disastrous sacrifice that he In yerv
anxious to declare dividend, aud that the onlv
source OF present dividend would be from the
surplus OF the individual estate as above stated
On this state OF facts the instruction of the Cont
was asked rs to the time at which the surplus Of
the Individual estate may be turned into the mart
| nership funds to be divided.
The counsel for the assignee, Messrs Bates and
Bradford, argued In favor OF q dividend as aeon
as the law would allow. o
fhe Court, however, decided that the finds
derived from the individual estate must remain
| subject to the individual debts and could moi
be divided among the partnership creditors until
the FINAL settlement Of the estate, and il wa.
| directed that no creditors meeting should be
called until further ordered. In order that there
might be no loss 10 the creditors the Court
upon the suggestion of the assignee, dlrectec
the investment Of the fund in hand, subject Il
the approval of the Court
petition was also filed some days ago settin,
| forth that about $4,000 was charged to Jobf
f. McLear, on the firm books, in excess of th
amount charged t. John McLear aud askin,
that there shall be appropriated pro rata sh ar
the individual assets to the benefit of the firn
creditors.
This matter came up in the Court yesterday
and Hon. I. F. Bayard appeared for some o
the individual creditors, who applied for a con
tnuance.
MIR. Bradford opposed continuance and urge
an early hearing, US demanded by the interes st
of the creditors.
The Court, however, in view ofthe importanc c
OF the question, ordered that il be laid over uu
III the regular September term of the Distric

HUGH SWEENEY'S CASE
ROBBERY OF A:HOUSE.
Examinations of Teachers.
Hugh Sweeney.
HIS CASE NOW BEING CONSIDERED BY THE NEW
JERSEY COURT oE PARpoNs.

JERSEY COURT OF PARDoNs.
Yesterday, in referring to the efforts being
made towards securing pardon for Hugh Swee-
ney, we stated that the committee was from
the Fame Hose Company. In this we were In
error.
Some time ago, when this subject was agitated,
Governor Ponder recommended to Coy. Park er
/ OF New jersey II. b. McInlire, John V. Chrsty,
VIM H. Quinn and George H. Bowers, Esqrs.,
as suitable and competent parsons to conduct the
measures Tor Sweeneys pardon. On the 10th
instant these gentlemen visited Trenton and
held an interview with Judges Clements, Wales
and Green, and Chancellor Runyon, members of
| the New jersey Court of Pardons. On Thursday,
they had another interview with Vice Chancellor
Dodd, Judges Latbrop and Liley and Governor
| Parker As we before stated, the committee felt
greatly encouraged at the result of the of these in
terviews.
| Theu pardon, it is supposed will hing upon the
acceptance or rejection OF the testimony of Henry
Buxbaum, Of this city. AT the trial of Sweeney,
Buxbaum swore directly that it was not Sweeney
but another man who struck the fatal blow but
the jury did not take this evidence into consider
ton, as the prosecution represented the witness
as unreliable and not to be credited. The COM
mttee, however, bore with them letters from
lGovernor Ponder, Hon. VIM. q. Whiteley, Mayor
Simms and others, testifying to Mr.. Duxbaum's
character and standing In the community, and
his reliability as a witness. These letters and
Mr. Buxbaums affidavit of his knowledge of the
murder have been presented to the Ceurt of Par
dons which Is now in session In about q
week the decision of the Court will probably he
known.

TIE REPUBLICAN STATE CONVENTION The
Chronicle Republican organ OF this morning
says it has been determined to hold the Republi.
eau State Convention at Georgetown. Sussex
county, on Saturday, July 18Th. This announce
ment, presume,is authoritative, and the contests
at the delegate election will soon commence.
Firs Ia Jump Hurrah for Thompson
Since the above was in type we learn that the
announcement was premature, and that In max
ing it the Chronicle overstepped the bounds OF
political propriety. Mr.. Pickels says that the
time for holding the Convention has not yet beer
fxed, but soon will be. The time, however, will
be considerably later than the day stated by the
Chronicle

RoBBERY.-l.ast night, the house of Mr.. James
Oliver, No. All W. Fifth street. was entered by
thieves by means of forcing an entrance at the
of the building and robbed of articles to the
amount of which has not yet been ascertained
Mr.. Oliver and his family were absent on q visit
and had left the key of the house in the care Of
neighbor, who, upon entering The dwelling this
morning, found the furniture disarrsnged and
everything in a ransacked condition. Feeling
natural delicacy to ascertain the extent of the
robbery in the absence of the family, they deslst-
ed from any further investigation into the mat
ter until the arrival of Mr.. Oliver. No clue TO
the perpetrators has been obtained.

The description given by our correspondent on
