Reckless Arrests fn new York.

Two arrests have lately occurred in New
York well calculated 10 make respectable
people in that city cry "Save us from the
police" One was the arrest OF Mrs. Eos.
ter. the wife OF journalist, highly-ac-
complshed lady, who was taken into GUS
tody by q drunken policeman FAMED Cuff,
Us she was alighting from stage, and
forced to 90 TO the staiion-hOuse on de-
grading and wholly-unfounded charge,
and there confined in cell with number
Of wretched creatures OF her own sex.
The policeman was so drunk that he could
larely stand erect, and rough and brutal in
his behavior. When be had slept off the
elects OF his liquor be laid down his star
and resigned. Mrs. Foster, however, has
been accorded no redress for the outrage
put upon her beyond the general public in
dignatiOn which her mental suffering has
feclingly aroused. The other case was the
arrest OF Rev. James Mccarthy, Young
priest, who was arrested or charge
OF disOrderly conduct, and sentenced 10
Blackwell's Island IN default OF S4O0 for
good behavior. He was discharged before
reaching the island. The magistrate said
that when the prisoner was before him in
court he did not believe he was priest.
but thought be had assumed that character
to secure the indulgence Of the court. MI.
Mccarthy said that his Incarceration was
an outrage. lie was not under the intlu-
ence Of liquor, but was naturally excited at
the degrading charge which had been made
against him, and in his excitement he may
lave used Incorporate language. for which
he was extremely sorry. He said that he
had been ordained priest a few years ago,
and his character was above reproach.
His Incarceration in the prison had com.
plctely unnerved him, and he had not slept
or tasted food while locked up. He said
that 10 friends had been TO see him during
bis sojourn in prison, and he did not know
TO whose intercession he owed his release
on leaving the prison.

Testing "A Tester.


The Senate and House committee on or
diuances visited the WatertOwn arsenal yes
terday afternoon to inspect the testing ma
chine. This machine is the one which can
determine to fraction the exact tensile,
bending, breaking, or crushing strength OF
any material, be it wood. metal, or stone, or
any other substance, with possibly the eX-
ception Of restaurant butter. The tester
has q capacity OF SOC, 900 pounds, yet II can
be adjusted TO such q nicely that 1t VIII re-
cord the force required to crush an egg

coo, is likely to prevest its coming into
general use. IL is pondrous affair,
operated by hydraulic power, and occu-
pies a building by itself. On the noor
near il yesterday were exhibited trophies
of its strength. One Of these is a bar OF
hammered wrought iron, FIVE inches in
diameter, which was pulled apart under a
pressure OF 722.S0O pounds, and with a
noise as loud as field-piece. Immediately
after this horse-hair was put in and pulled
apaIt, two tests showing conclusiyely the
immense scope of the machine. Some
links Of two-inch ships cable, sent by
Commander Schey. Of the Greedy relief
squadron, were broken under strain OF
2T9, 500 pounds. A stick OF hard pine tim
her, twelve inches on each face, was
crushed under longitudinal pressure oi

mont, etc, are also tested in the same way

course in Ncwburg may be taken as n fair
sample Of Ter operations elsewhere. She
arrived in that city nearly three week, n 20
and obtained board at the residence of tho
Rev. MIR. Palmer. on Lande street, Her
winning and accomplished ways won the
bert of the old Methodist clergyman ana
his good wife at the outset. Moreover. she
was exceedingly well connected, and money
was no object. She has half a dozen or
more aliases. ranging from Miss Maud

learned that she obtained dress goods and
