Court N ofeS,

In the Court of Common Pleas yesterday yesterday afternoon Colonel A. Heaton Rob ertson brought to the attention of the court 8 peculiar case, in substance as follows: Pat rick McGovern sued Maria T. Stoddard, of Washington, D. O., for $1O0 for the laying of street walk and obtained judgment. A lien was placed on unincumbered-so far as the colonel had investigated-property worth $3, 900 to S3, 800, and foreclosure brought. Her lawyers had deserted her because she had written insulting letters to them; the colonel said it Eeemed as though she were crazy. He could get nothing from her as to a defense in the suit, and his client, MT. Nc Govern, wanted his money. So he felt obliged to ask for a decree, although he WAS almost sure she would not redeem, but let the $2, 800 or $3, 400 equity go by the board decree was passed, the time for redemption being fixed as the first Monday of April, 1883. ''This vii give her time enough to redeem, 7" the judge said. During the remarks Colonel Robertson said the defendant had written a letter to her tenant, in which she said he and other lawyers had conspired to rob her of the property June 21.

The Tariff Commfssion-The Vacancies Filled and the Chairma nship Arranged A Brief Sketch of the New Members. WASHINGTON, June 16.-The regular meet ing of the Cabinet was held to day. All the members were present. except Secretary Chandler. The session was short. The list of tariff commissioners was completed by the selection of William H. McMahon, of New York, and Alexander R. Boteler, of West Vir- ginia, to fill the vacancies in the list caused by the declination of Messrs. Wheeler, of New York, and Phelps of Missouri. The commission was also reorganized by the se- lection of John l.. Hayes, of Massachusetts, as chairman. The President had great diff culty in completing the list of commission CTS, as will be seen from the following state- ment: When Mir. Wheeler declined his po- sition was rendered Mir. A. A. Low, who also declined. Hugh Mccullough was next of- fered the place, and he too declined. The name of Erastus Corning was also considered in connection with the vacancy, but was passed on the ground that the steel and iron interests were already represented on the commission by Mir. Oliver, of Pennsylvania. Legrand B. Cannon and John T. Agney, both of New York, each successively declined to serve on the commission. Mir. McMahon, who accepts, is now employed in the apprais- CTS office of the New York custom house, and was selected because of his knowledge of the present tariff laws.
 Alexander R. Boteler was born in Shep- herdstown, Va, in 1915. He received his collegiate education at Princeton College, where he was graduated in 1885. Since that time he has chiefly devoted his attention to literary and political affairs. He was on the electoral tickets of the Whig and American parties in 1852 and 1856. He was elected a Representative from Virginia to the Thirty sixth Congress, where he served on the Com- mittee of Military Affairs. He was 8 repre- sentative in the Confederate Congress. In 1875 he was appointed a commissioner to the Centennial Exhibition.
 William H. McMahon was an officer of New York regiment in the war, and was very severely wounded In 1863 he was appoint ed an entry clerk in the custom house, and about 1868 was made chief clerk of the Fifth division. About 1879 he was appointed dep uty collector at large, and last year Collector Robertson appointed him to fill the new po- sition of adjuster of duties. His acquaint- ance with the practical workings of the tariff laws and of Treasury decisions during the last fifteen years is very extensive. Politi- cally he is Stalwart

 HALIFAX, N. s., June 16.-Last night the Allan steamship Canadian, from Glasgow and Liverpool, went ashore on Trump Gap Shoals. The government steamer and several tugs went to her assistance. She had struck at 6:3O when the tide was high and we'll up on shore. The captain on being questioned said he took his pilot on board at 4:30 in the afternoon, off Sambro head. The fog then was very thick, and the ship kept going very slowly. At 6:30, when running to the eastward, they thought well clear of Trump Cap, she struck the rocks and rebounded. The engines were quickly reversed, but few minutes after she went on again, came of and then struck a third time and remained fast, lying with her head to the east. There were few passengers on deck at the time but when the ship struck sudden rush was made from below, and for few minutes ey erything was excitement and confusion. The fears of the people were soon calmed by the ships officers, and as soon as possible some fishermen from the shore were dispatched to the city in rowboats with the news The steamer had on board PIT passengers. The Canadian is an iron ship of 1890 tons and was built for the Allan company in 1872.
 s After Tightening about five hundred tons of the cargo the stranded steamer came of the shoals at 6:3O p. m., not having sustained any apparent injury, making no water and she steamed into her dock about 1Op. m.
