TAMNANY HALL NEWS.

New YORK, June 22.-John Morrissey, who
had been directed to appear before the Tam
many Hall Committee on Discipline, to
answer the charge Of treason and conspiracy
against the peace and welfare of the party,
attended last night and answered series Of
questions concerning his political course
during the winter. The committee refused
to accede to Mr.. Morrissey's request for ad-
mission of members of the press. The inves-
tigation was conducted in secret, but the
proceedings are published in full this morn
Mr. Morrissey defended himself against i'm
peachment, and claimed that his course in
opposing the Costigan bill and the Civil
Justices bill was more in the interest of Tam
many Hall than the opposite conduct OF its
managers. In conclusion, he told the COM
mittee they might as well make up report
for his expulsion, as he was not going to re-
sign until he was ready.
Morrissey then retired, and Augustus Schell
and all the members of the Eleventh Assem-
bly District General Committee, except three,
were severally examined. Mr.. Schell and the
rest stated, in answer to questions asked, that
there was no disaffection in the District Com
mittee.
The Herald says the dissatisfaction which
has of late been manifesting itself against
Tammany Hall is gradually assuming shape

upper parlors of Dslmonico's large number

Committee shall be a provisional one, but
that it shall be permanent On Monday next

five representatives from each ward will be

| NEW York, June % Gov. Tilden has no
signed the Police Justices bill, and it fails t.
become law. This is one of the bills which
has created dissension in Tammany Hall, thu

a strong influence opposing it, finally will

and Newton. conducted BY q number of
deputy sherifs, was led back to the dock.
The courtroom was cleared, but the crowd
fingered on the banquette.
At about 2 o'clock q cab drove up to the
gate on Royal street, and around this cab the
crowd gathered, fully expecting that Newton
would be conveyed to the Parish Psison in
it; bat, while the crowd waited, Newton was
put out of the back windows of the court
room, assisted over the back fence. and left
quietly, in charge of one deputy sheriff, by
way of the restaurant on Customhouse street.
He was conducted to Chartres street, where
he was met by several other deputies, placed
in a cab and driven to the Parish Prison.
All these proceedings, as precautionary
measures, were good, but they were entirely
unnecessary, as the crowd that surrounded
the cab Oh Royal street was actuated by but
one motive, and that was curiosity.
Newton's counsel, during the progress OF
the trial, took two exceptions, one against
the charge of the Court and one against the
competency of q juror who had subscribed to
the fund for the relief of the family Of Bour-
donnay, but who stated that he did not know
the deceased or his family, and that his dona-
ton was made solely for cbaritys sake.
On these exceptions the case will be carried
to the Supreme Court, and it is understood
that it will be further urged as cause for a
new trial that the jury was intimidated.
If the new trial is obtained, vigorous efforts
will be made to revive the change of venue
bill, which was before the Legislature, and
the passage of which has been questioned.
Approaching the interest felt by the public
in all that appertains to the case, our reporter
last evening visited
The Governor,
for the purpose of obtaining his statement as
to his connection $50 much talked OF with
Newton.
The Governor stated that there was no re-
lationship whatever, between them that would
prevent him from doing his duty, as he might
consider, for the best interest of the State and
tho manila

THE MAINE DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION.

AUGUSTA, Me-, June 22.-At the Democratic
639 delegates were present. Sami.
J. Anderson was made permanent President.
The usual committees were appointed.
AUGUSTA, Me-, June 22.-In the afternoon
session of the Democratic State Convention
were adopted embodying the fol-
lowing declarations:
The Constitution is the peoples only safe
guard.
The rights of the people and States must
be sacredly preserved from the touch Of mill
tary or Congressional usurpation.
Civil supremacy in times Of peace; equality
of the rights of all men under the law;
sound currency, coin or its equivalent; q tariff
for revenue only; an honest preservation OF
the public faith to public creditors; return to
economy in the administration OF government,
national State and municipal; the abolition Of
unnecessary offices and the reduction of sala-
ries; one term for the president, with salary
of S25, 900.
The resolutions arraign the Republican
party for abandonment of principles, profit
paoy and corruption, condemn the Admins
tration in strong terms for the responsibility
of the Louisiana usurpation, and attempt to
suspend the writ of habeas corpus by the
last Congress, and pronouncing it no longer
safe to trust the reigns Of government IN
such hands,
The administration is pronounced RESPONSE
bic for the present depressed condition Of the
country and commerce in all sections; for
crippling the ship building trade, and for the
driving of American mercantile marine from
the ocean.
The people of Maine suffering under the
burden of oppressive taxations, demand re-
form and appeal to all men without regard II
party names or past differences, to unite VIII
them to secure this triumph.
An effort made to incorporate the fnancia
resolution of the Ohio Democratic Conven
ton, failed.
Gen. Chas. W. Roberts, of Bangor, wa
Unanimously nominated for Governor.
The committee then adjourned.

A CLEVELAND TRICK.
An Artful DOdger Working
Through the Mails.

From the exposures made of the many and
ingenious means adopted by sharpers all over
the country. it would almost seem that a
limit of human contrivance had been reached,
but new and shrewd dodge has just been
exposed.
Some weeks since lady Of this city lost a
valuable gold locket containing miniature
photograph of her deceased husband, and
advertised for its return in our city papers,
After the advertisement had been published
for some weeks, the following postal card was
received at this office:
CLEVELAND, Ohio, J une IA, 1875.
Mrs.
Madame-In answer to your advertisement
in one of the New Orleans papers concerning
a lost locket.. Being in New Orleans on May
25th, 1875, found locket on one of the
streets like the one described in the adver-
tisement, having photograph inside. II you
will remit any amount sufficient to pay for
sending il through mail, registered, I will re-
turn it. From yours, etc.,
GEO. w. CURTIS,
Cleveland P. O., Ohio.
The note itself was we'll calculated to de-
ceive The possibility of stranger here find
ing the lost souvenir and leaving for home
was very natural, and his modest demand for
"any amount sufficient to pay for sending it
through mail" was good bait, but in this
instance there was no bite.
Yesterday afternoon, one of the BULLETIN
corps was engaged in conversation with
lady, about leaving for her home in Kentucky,
when the subject of advertisements came up
and the lady mentioned the fact that few
weeks before she had lost an earring and
had advertised for it. and few days after
wards it was returned. Judge of her surprise,
however, when, some time subsequent to its
recovery, she received postal card from this
same Geo. W. Curtis, of Cleveland, stating
that he had lately visited New Orleans and
found an earring On one of the principal
streets, answering the description given in
the New Orleans papers. He requested a
dollar to pay expenses and he would return
the lost piece of jewelry.
The fact that she had already recovered il
led her to suspect the honesty of the postal
card writer, and when she heard OF the
second instance of this trickster, she was
satisfied he was swindler.
We venture to say there is no George w.
Curtis in Cleveland, and that some swindlel
has a post-ofice box under that name, and
seeing advertisements all over the country
for lost articles, uses it as means OF cheat
ing innocent persons out of paltry sums
