The Cnsgrone Hearing.

Before Judge York yesterday, there was 8 further hearing regarding the insolvent mat ters of John c. Cosgrove. Mir. Cosgrove continued his testimony regarding his affairs at the time his goods and chattels were at tached by creditors. Regarding the Chapel street store he stated that he began business there in the latter part of May last. There were between five and six thousand dollars worth of goods in the store, including fix lures worth $1 200 The goods came from the store on Church street. He continued with the store until June z, when he sold out. There are no entries in his books showing what goods were put into the Chapel street store, or from whom they came. No goods were billed to the Chapel street store. During the continuance of his busi- ness he frequently shipped goods out of town to various parties, all of which were recorded on his books except such were returned to the manufacturers. After June he sold various bills of goods to the American Shoe Company, all of which sales were recorded on his books, and part of which were paid for. After the attach ment no goods were shipped from Church to Chapel street After the attachment he re- ceived sixty pairs of ladies' kid button shoes, three cases of shoes and three sets of crock cry and chinaware, which were stored at No. 20 Orange street, at his brother's E. H. Cos grove's house. These were removed at the order of the witness, who had been instruct ed to have them removed to the store of the American Shoe Company by his brother D. w. Cosgrove. The goods belonged to the company and were delivered at his brother's house by the New York and Boston Dispatch Express ComDany

Judge H. B. Wilcox is still on the invalid list. Rheumatism, neuralgia and other troubles beset him. We hope that soon he will find relief, and consequently be enabled to enjoy life, as before disease and trouble came. We learn that his youngest son, Dwight, who has been in large hardware store in Springfield, Mass, for several years started on Saturday morning last for Cedar Rapids, Iowa, where he has engaged with another large firm in the same line of busi- ness.
 Rev. E. Edwin Hall has preached for two Sabbaths in succession in the Congregational church, Mir. Gallup being away on his vaca- ton. Mir. Hall expected to have delivered g lecture on Sunday evening last, but the thun- der storm prevented.

 Farmers are gathering their potatoes the crop of which is very slim. Many pieces of them are scarcely worth digging. The corn crop, however, IS 8 success and large yield is anticipated. Within two weeks the cut ting up of corn will commence, and indeed many lots which we have seen are ready for the sickle now. Other crops, onions and car rots, which once prevailed so extensively here, have been given up to large extent because it was found that the cost of raising them was so great and the price received for them so small that the profits were minus There are still few lots of onions and car rots here; also more turnips than usual and some cabbages. The rye crop has proved to be the best paying crop this year, as it yield ed largely, and there are two sources of in- come from it. The grain is valuable in it. self, but the straw is more valuable E. w.

Board of Seleetmen.

Recommendations for the Abatement of Taxes-Licenses Recommended and Bills ApProyed-COmpInInts Against Enroll ing Officers.
 The regular weekly meeting of the Board of Selectmen was held last evening; present, Selectmen Andrew Cpresiding), Reynolds, Feldman, Crawford and Hart.
 Licenses were recommended to John c. Keith, 97 Broadway; John Kirby, 49 Nicoll street; and William H. Burns, 223 Commerce street.
 The committee on abatement of taxes to whom was referred several petitions for abatement of taxes, reported as follows: That the tax against E. 0. North on horse and carriage taxed on the grand list of 1877, amounting to $1O92 be abated, it appearing to the committee that the team had been sold before the tax was laid. The tax against Edward B. Bradley on the list of 1874 to 1878 inclusive, amounting to $3O62, they recommended be abated the tax assessed against him properly belonged to others. No action on the petition of Charles Stanley for abatement of tax amounting to $31.91 as it appeared that the mortgagee would soon foreclose the mortgage and the property would be held for taxes. The tax of Freder- ick Herbecker was abated to the extent of $1 ,0OO on the lists of 1876 to 1879 inclusive, he being pensioned soldier.
 Selectmen AndruSS, Feldman and Reynolds
