—Recently a hitherto respected citizen of Troy, a member of the church, and a man es­teemed to be every way honorable, engaged in a long debauch and was finally found in one of the haunts of vice on Sixth street.

" Stopping at the Grand Central he went off on a drank. In the morxing he fonnd that hia gold watch, worth $140, presented to him by the First Baptist Sundaj school of Troy, N. Y., of which he waa Superintendent, waa gone. The watch was found in the possession of Joe Lee. an inmate of the county jail, having been handed to him by hia wife, who keeps a saloon on Clark Btreet In this place the Superintendent eot his liquor and lost his watch, a ring, and a set of sleeve buttons. The bar-tender waa arrested, aa also was William JJcDonald, who waa present on the night of the robbery, and is said to know something about the transaction. The case will be examined at the Police Court to-morrow."

—The Prm» is extremely senaative on the cir­culation question. It raves like a madman, pitching into its friends and supporters in a fearful manner. It says: "And as for the Dem­ocratic party, ail it has thus far done for us has been to cut our bills down below any possibility of profit; therefore we owe nothing to the party.'' This la deliciously grateful on the part of the Press publishers. Permit us to inquire who they do owe for the $9,000 recently subscribed t o keep the paper afloat ? Are there any other 1>>fT> Democratic names on the chattle mort­gage given to secure Its payment ? And was there no profit in the $5,000 or $6,000 allowed the Prmt by our Democratic city authorities for printing Colby's worthless compilation .of the city laws? Gentlemen of the Press, less blow­ing and more gratitude!

—A few y e a n since a certain journal was published in Troy. For a while It had a seem­ingly prosperous career; then Its business de­clined, and to bring it up the price of the paper was reduced below first-cost. It is needless to eay the Journal died, and the subscribers were left to. arrears. Now we have another Illustra­tion of equally desperate expedients In journal-Inn. A peper that to advertised to.be sold upon a chattel mortgage has reduced Its price below the coat of the material before It It printed. CXiui tl Ijniinifrrf f~ attrnnrr Will some first-class mathematician tell us how long a paper can aviviie when every subscriber it receives drives a nan in Ha eoamm, and how much the proprietors will packet when the end comes by

i reckless system of reducing the price ro­of cost)

Monday, at a meeting of the directors ©f the Trow City Beak, George F. Sims, cashier Of that Institution, tendered his resignation of the position held by him, and this forenoon the directors met and appointed G. A. Stone, Cashier of the Mutual National Bank, to the vacant position. Mr. Sims has been connected With the Troy City Bank for many years, and proved himself a most accommodating at well s i able officer. Few men in the state are more thoroughly competent, or have made more friends in a position of so much annoyance and Taxation aa that of cashier of a bank. His successor, Mr. Stone, is a gentleman of the highest capacity and most undoubted Integrity. The directors of the Troy City In choosing him t e flB Mr. Stone's place have chosen wisely and wel l ; they could not hare done better. But we do not l e a n that Mr. Stone has as yet ac­cepted the position,—the Mutual Bank direct­ors holding on to htm wtth a tenacity that wfll not he denied. W e understand that Mr. Sims will remain connected wtth the Troy City for a brief period at least, If not longer, in a posi­tion of responsibility and importance.

a large m went down to Albany to appear before the

committee hi relation to the "Troy District Court bffl." The committee constats of Assemblymen Prince, Tobey, Ted­der, Cc^rgehaU, VanCoti, Herring, MeGuire and Cary. The friends of the bill present were Judge Robertson, Hon. James Forsyth, Hon. Thomas Coleman, J. M. London, N. Davenport, Charles Eddy, and others. The opponents were L. W. Rhodes, Francis Rising, Justices Donohue and Conway, John Kennedy, and others.

TH» otsotmtio* was opened by Judge Robertson, who stated that In the last section of the bill relative to the transferral of records, e t c , from the present Court to the new Court, there were some im­perfections. An amendment was offered pro­viding for a traasf erral of the records to the County Clerk's office within ten days after the election of the Justices of the District Court, and the Clerk of Rensselaer county was given power to Issue transcripts of judgments made by the District Court, end to receive the fees

'thereof. Judge Robertson stated that he did not wish to discuss the bill at length, but would merely make some statements at to what the present Court was composed of, v ia: Three Justices and one clerk. He continued:

The original Justices' Court of Troy was estab­lished in 1884, since which time no modifications have been made, nor have the powers of the Court to ac­commodate the people been increased since that time. In 1849 a bffl called the "Police Court bill" waa pawed, authorizing the Common Council of the city of Troy to designate one of the three Justices to act as police magistrate of the city, and giving this Justice -power to appoint an associate Justice. Since that time one Justice has been engaged in trying criminal cases, while one of the remaining Justice's has been in the civil Court The running expenaes of the Court at the present time are estimated at $10,000— $4,000 each for the Justices and Clerk, and two thousand dollars for incidental expenaes. We propose by this bill to give each Justice $1,000 and allow him to take the fees of the office. As it is at present organized, but one civil Justice can act at a tune, and there is more business than one Justice can attend to. I know of some Instances where it was necessary for the persona to take therr cases to Lanafngbnrgh in order to have them speedily tried. We propose to give double the present accommoda­tions with leas expense. Instead of $8,000 for sala­ries, it will be but $3,000 for the ctviTjustlcea and $3,500 for the criminal Justices, making in all about 15.500. The Court will havegdouble the capacity for doing business, and the Justices will not be com­pelled to work any more hours than they do at pres­ent

THK DTJKB OV BEO-SWICX. Horace Herrington next took the floor, and

in a violent harangue said that he appeared for neither side, but opposed that clause In the bill making it neeessary for a man to he a lawyer to become a Justice, thus disfranchising President Grant himself. Chairman Prince frequently in­formed Mr. Herrington that the committee un­derstood his views, but he would not be hushed up until he had his say. Mr. Herrington also opposed the clause in the bill relative to salaries.

THE OPFOMVNTS OF THB B O X .

Francis Rising, in behalf of the opponents of the bill, was the next speaker. After some pre­liminary talk about Herrington's speech, Mr. R. stated that he had come to Albany, not for the purpose of representing any party, but that b« had come in the Interests of* the people. He bad practiced to the present court for the last six or seven years, and had tried as many cases there as any other lawyer in that time, and he was perfectly satisfied with the court. I t the court was divided up into districts it would be a source of great inconvenience to lawyers who might have cases in both courts on the same day, when it would be impossible for them to be in two places at the same time.

Assemblyman MeGuire, Dem.—Are* the Jus­tices Justices of the Peace ! If so, we can't legislate them out of office.

Rising—No sir, and that is just the point I would like to discuss, but as I have just taken up this matter, and have not had a chance to examine it, I appear tills afternoon more for the purpose of asking for an adjournment for a few days, in order to prepare myself, than for the purpose of making any argument. We are in the midst of a circuit at Troy, and the gentle­man who was to have appeared for the oppo­nents of this bill this afternoon is engaged in Troy, trying a case. (The gentleman referred to is Edgar L. Fursman.)

Assemblyman MeGuire moved that the ad­journment for a few days be granted.

Judge Robertson and J. R. Stevens opposed the adjournment on the ground that it was a trick to stave off the passage of the bill until after election.

Assemblyman Cleary, who was present, stated that there had been no hearing before the Sen­ate committee.

Assemblyman Coggshall moved as an amend­ment to Mr. McGuire's motion, that those de­siring to speak should be heard, after which the committee would consider the request for an adjournment. . ,

SFMCH or JOHM M. LAHDOV. J. M. Landon said that he had been a Justice of the

Justices Court of the city of Troy for five years, and claimed to know something about its powers and authority. In 1884 the Legislature passed an act es­tablishing a Justices Court of the city of Troy and providing for the appointment by the Governor by and with the advice and consent of the Senate of three persona, to be known aa Justices of the Jus­tices Court in and for the city of Troy, and for the appointment of a person to be known as the Clerk of the Justices Court to and for the city of Troy. The Justices were to hold their offices for four year*, and it waa declared in the n m e act that they should be also Justices of the peace of the county of Rens­selaer. The Constitution of 1846 provided tnat ail judicial officers in cities should be elected, and that justices of the peace in towns should be elected far four years. In 1848 the Legislature passed an act providing for the election of the justices of the justices court of the city of Troy and the clerk thereof. That act was so framed that it pro­vided that there should be a justice of such court elected every year for a term of three years, it also provided that the Justices of the Justices' Court of the city of Troy should be severally a justice of the

Eeace of the county of Rensselaer. In 1849, the Le^is-iture passed what is generally known as the

ne the Common Count te one of the Justices of the

Pol ice

Fo-ncil the powor t o

Jus t i ces ' Court Magistrate o f the ci ty Magi that a providing thai when fc

lice Act," giving the deel of the city of Troy for one year, and , were too great for him to perform, he might call to his assistance one of the other Justices of the Jus­tices' Court, who while acting as Police Magistrate should have the same powers aud authority. It also provided that the Police Magistrate should have ex­clusive jurisdiction to try and determine all charges against all persons brought before him for any of­fense specified in the act relating to Courts of Spe­cial Sessions. It also provided that all warrants is­sued by any magistrate of the city for offenses triable before the Police Magistrate should be made returna­ble before such Police Magistrate.

Now, it is claimed by Mr. Rising that as there is a portion of the term of each of the Justices unex­pired, the Legislature has no power to pass an act depriving them of any portion of their term of office, and I understand it to be on the ground that they are declared to be Justices of the Peace of the county of Rensselaer in the act of 1848. There can be no doubt that the Legislature has no power to abridge or ex­tend the term of office of the incumbent so long as the office exists; but when the office Is itself abolished then, as a matter of course, the incumbent ceases to be an officer no matter whether he has served out his full term or not. Aad it is equally certain that if the Legislature had the power to create the Justices' Court of the city of Troy and the office of Justice of the Justices' Court fat and for the city of Troy, it had the power to abolish the Coort and the office of Jus­tice of such Court The office of Justices of the Justices' Court of the city of Troy Is not an office specified in the Constitution of 1846, and there la nothing la that Constitution prohibiting the Legislature from creating such an office so long as it provided for hia election, aa all judicial officers in cities under that constitu­tion must be elected. A Justice of the Justices' Court, as such, has not the same power as a Justice of the Peace, for he cannot laaae civil or criminal pro­cess. Such process can only be issued by the Jus­tices' Court of the city of Troy, and such process has to be signed by the Clerk of the Court and sealed, so that the office of Justice of the Justices' Court la not identical with that of the office of Justice of the Peace. Beside, his power to criminal matters, when not acting aaPoheeMagiatrate.U cooatderabiy leas than that of a Justice of the Peace. It la claimed, however, that he la a Justice of the Peace of the county of Rensselaer, and that as the constitution of 184S provides for the election of Justices of the Peace, who shall hold their oatee for the term of four years, that, theraf ore, the legislature cannot abolish the office.

The constitution of 1846 did not provide for the catntkm of Justices of the Peace in cities. It ts an derstood to bathe principal point ef the gentleman's argument that the clause contained hi the act of 1848, " They shall be severally Juaticea of the Peace of the County of Itmnaalanr, reallymakes them so. This is undoubtedly a mistake. The act of 184* provided for the election of Justices of the Justices' Court of the city of Troy, not for the election of a Justice of the Peace of the County of Rensselaer, and the sim­ple declaration of the Legislature could not make a Justice of the Pesos of the County of Rensselaer. When the eonatitatiea in the plainest terms speci­fies that he shall he elected, and that hia tern of office shall be foar years, in other words the Legisla­ture had no power to appoint a Justice of the Peace in the act of 1948, which, if the gentleman's reasoning is correct, it attempted to do. And the clause above referred to being to the original act of 1884, when the constitution of 18*1 provided for such appointments, waa inadvertently left in the act of 1848. After the constitution of 184f waa adopted, which provided, as wa have seen, for the election only of such officers, and then for a term of four years instead of three.

It is a •tegular assumption to make that the Legia-Iding tor the election of a particular judi­

cial officer with particular powers and duties really provided for the ejection of another and a differeat judicial officer with different powers and duties.

The conchuuons that we arrive at are: le t The Lagnuarare can abolish the Justices'

Court of the city of Troy and the office of Justice of the Juatieee' Court of the city of Troy, aa there is no constitutional objection.

ML That the Justices of the Justices' Court are not Juaticea of the Peace of the county of Rensselaer, aa the constitution provides that such officer must be

latere

that they shall hold their offices for four years.

Ckmetderable discussion relative to the pro­posed adjournment followed Mr. .Landon's speech, which was participated In by L. W. Bbedee, Judge Robertson and others, after which the committee decided to allow the oppo­nents of the mil time te submit written state­ments relative to the constitutionality of the bill, on or before Thursday noon.

Two well known and honored citisens of Troy—Charles C. Clark, one of the editors of the Troy Daily Pre**, and Barney Mee, late Su­perintendent of the Bessemer steel works—are no more. Both were prominent in their respec­tive walks in life; both were members of Apollo Commandery of Knights Templar, and both bear with them to the grave the tender re­collections and the warm attachment of devoted friends.

Mr. Clark died in Hudson this morning at about 4X o'clock. He was born In that city on the 8d of March, 1841, and was therefore near­ly thirty-two years of age—an age at which most men are making for themselves, If at all, a position in the world, and gaining by their talents something of the respect of the commu­nity in which they reside. These Mr. Clark had won In a large degree, and his untimely death robe the profession of journalism of one of its most prominent members, society of one of its ornaments, and his friends and associates of a true-hearted brother and a most genial and generous companion. His early education was obtained in hia native city. Graduating from the Hudson Academy with high honors, he entered Williams College at the early age of seventeen years, and continued his studies there two years, when he was compelled by illness to sever his connection with the institution. HA then cuterea tne employ or his father, who waa at that time an extensive steamboat owner and forwarder at Hudson, and remained with him until I860, when he received a clerkship in , the state arsenal at New York. Mr. Clark was present at bis post of duty during the riots In that city, when the arsenal was the point of attack by the mob, and rendered conspicuous and gallant Service. Subsequently he returned to Hudson, and purchasing an Inteu*t to Wte Daily Segister of that city entered upon bis jour­nalistic career, for which profession he had a natural aptitude and was especially well fitted by ready talents and a generous education. He continued this connection until May, 1869, when he sold out his Interest to bis partner, Mr. Wil­liams, and came to Troy and purchased one-half of the Daily Press. Since then Mr. Clark has been wholly a Trojan. Here he made many friends and gained many admirers. Though f reqUtntly called upon to cross swords with bun, sometimes in the pleasantries of fictitious news­paper wrangles, sometimes in the sterner en­counters of earnest discussion, we have only the kindest and most tender recollections of him. His geniality in social Intercourse, his open-hearted and Ingenuous disposition, his ready wit, warmly attached him to all with whom he came in contact. Mr. Clark's disease is of long standing, and for two years bis Inti­mate friends have known that he was gradually declining. He was afflicted with chronic bron­chitis, catarrh and gastritis. On the 30th of December he was first confined to his house, coming out only twice since then. On the 37th of January he was taken to his native city to die, and there at 4:30 o'clock this morning he calmly, peacefully breathed his test. Peace to his ashes! The funeral is appointed for Friday afternoon at 3 o'clock. The Commandery wttl attend in a body, meeting to-night at 8 o'clock to make the necessary arrangements.

This valuable citizen died lost night at about 5 o'clock. He had been sick for about ten months. During the small pox epidemic In 1871 Mr. Mee contracted the disease, and never re­covered from Its effects. Mr. Mee came to Troy twelve years ago from Keeseville, Essex county, and after a connection of some years with the Albany Iron Works took the superintendency of Mr. Oriswold's steel.works. He was both a practical and scientific iron worker, and also an inventor of several valuable articles, notably a patent fire nozzle, for which he received the sum of $5000. He represented the Sixth ward in the Eoard of Education for two years. He was universally popular, and recently the work­men in the steel works testified their respect for him by presenting him i * * - «"««n™cent gold watch an* >rff** He was a member of Apollo Commandery No. 15, which will attend his fu­neral. His age was forty-six years. He had an Insurance of 110,000 on his life. The funeral will take place from the Woodside Presbyteri­an church on Sunday next at 1 r. M. It will be attended by Apollo Commandery and other Ma­sonic bodies.

Two large barns belonging to Lyman Sheldon, residing to the town of Schaghtlcoke, about four miles above Lanslngburgh, were destroyed by fire on Saturday morning. Mr. S. was aroused about 9 o'clock to the morning by some noise, and Immediately discovered that his buildings were on fire. The two barns were standing ad­joining each other, end although a prompt alarm was immediately given then? destruction was at once apparent, and no efforts were put forth to save them. Other adjoining buildings, by untiring efforts, were saved. The bams were filled with bay, over $1,000 worth having just been pressed and the press removed during the dsy. A horse belonging to Mr. Sheldon waa tied to the hay mow and was supposed to have been suffocated to the barn, but after the fire, it was discovered a short distance off burned to a most pitiable manner. It is supposed the horse was confined till the flames parted the rope with which It was tied ; then breaking the door It escaped and made the noise which awoke the owner. The fire was undoubtedly of incen­diary origin, and strong suspicions are had In regard to the person. The loss will amount to full $2,500, on which there Is no insurance. This i s the fourth fire that has occurred in the vicinity within a year, and it Is hoped the incen­diary may be brought to justice.

TBDI SITUATION A"* « A I > « B » . LONOOK. ***| **» 10 A. v.—Since 6 o'clock this

morning dispatches have been received from Madrid, giving sn account of the situation there, which is more favorable than was hoped here last night. No disturbance of any kind is reported, and there seems to be a disposition on all hands to maintain order and support the measures of the Provisional authorities. The Cortes yesterday was the central point of inter­est, and bulletins of its proceedings ware anxioaaly awaited by crowds of persons in all the public places of the city. The two Houses assembled at a late hour In the day. The formal message of the abdica­tion of King Amadens was read In p»«h chamber sep­arately. It opens with tne statement that the King has maturely considered the question of what course be ought to pursue with reference to the Spanish throne, and has firmly resolved upon that coarse. When he accepted the crown he did so under the be­lief that the W«i»y or tne people who had called hint would compensate for the inexperience which he brought to his task. He had fonnd that herein he was deceived. If the enemies who had beset his path had been foreigners be would not hare taken the course now determined upon, bnt they are Spaniards. By them Spain had been kept in perpetual disquiet. All his efforts to quiet her or put an end to the in­trigues, which were the source of her agitation, had proved unavailing. It was not enough that he had a partisan support; he had no wish to remain on the throne as King Of a party. He therefore announced hi. .MIMHOK r>«« K»v.if oS lUmseif and his heirs. Upon the completion of the reading the Senate aad Congress met together in the chamber of the latter and constituted themselves the sovereign cortes of Spain. Senor Blvero, president of the Congress, was called I to the chair, and in a brief speech declared himself ready to answer for the preservation of order and the execution of the decrees of the sovereign p o w e r . A VOIB WHO t h e n takoxi o n t k o ) n < M « t o . a t « o

cepting without discussion the abdication of Amad­ens, and It waa accepted unanimously, A commis­sion from the members of the Senate and Congress was then appointed to draft a .reply to the message and another commission to accompany the King to the frontier. Senor Pio then proposed a resolution establishing a Republic and vesting in the Assembly the supreme power. The resolution was adogted by a vote of 256 ayes against 32 nays. The Assembly was still in session when the foregoing was telegraph­ed from Madrid.
