The jnosA important decision rendered by the Supreme Court of the 1'nited fc'tates to-day was tint in tlie live ascs e nuuonly known as the civil rights cas?, which were submitted to the Court on printed arguments about a year ago. Tbe titles of these rases and the States from which tl.ey can.e are as follows: No. 1, tbe United Mates against Murray Stanley, from tho I'uited States Circuit Court for the District o.' Kansas; No. 2, the I'll ited States against 31iehael Ryan, from the l'nited states Circuit 'onrt for the District of 'ali torn ia; No. .', the 1'nited States against Samuel Nicholas, from the United States Circuit Court for the Western District o: Missouri; No. 20, tbe United Slates against Samuel 1). Singleton, from the tinted Slates Circuit Court for tbe Southern J)trict of New York, and No. 28, llicbard Robinson a nl w ife against the Memphis and Charleston Kailroad Company, from tbe United Hates 'Circuit Court for the District of Ttnne-M?e. These rases were all based on the 1st and 2d Sections of the Civil Ilichti Act of ih!5, and were respectively prosecutions under tliatact for not admitting certain colored persons to equal accommodation and privileges in inns or hotel", in railroad cars and in Tlwaters. The defence set up in every rase was the alleged uncoiistiuitioualiiy of the law. The lift and second sections of the act which were the parts direct! y. i n controversy.are as a follow: Section 1 That all person within tbe jurisdiction of the United. States shall be entitled to full and equal enjoyment of accommodations, ad vantages-facilities and privileges of inns, public conveyances on land and water. Theaters and other places of pu!liC amusement, subject only to conditions and limitation established bylaw and applicable alike to citizens of every race ami color, regardless of any previous condition of wrvitudc. The second -section provides that any pro?i who violates the lirst section siia!l fe liable, to forfeit &"00 for each offense, to be recovered in civil action ;;and also to a penalty from &o0 to ?J.,0u0 tine or imprisonment of thirty days to a year, to be enforced in criminal prosecution Exclusive jurisdiction is yiven to' the District and Circuit Courts of lle United States iu case arising under tbe law. Tlie rights and privileges claimed by and knie) to colored persons in these cases were full and e.jual accommodations in hotels, iu ladies' cars on railway trains, and in dre- cirdesin Theaters. The Court, in a Ion-; ami carefully preare4 opinion by Justice Brady, Ivolds: (1) That the Congress had no Const!tntional authority to pass the secti jns in jiwt;on under tlie thirteenth or fourteenth amendment f the Constitution; (2) that tbe fourteenth aiueudmtint i.s prohibitory uj-on tbe States only, and that. the legislation authorized to be ad on ted by Congress for enforcing that amendment is direct legislation on matter respecting wltieli States are prohibited from making or enforcing certain laws ordaining certain aet. butji corrective legislation net-'sary or premier for counterading atut redressing tle effects of such Ja.w or a-!". that in forbidding tlltes, fir example, to ilur'we. any erson J life, liberty or property without due pro-, ef law. and giving Congress tlje power to fos e prohibition, it was not intended to ste-Cmgress the power to provide due pro ess of law or the protection of life, liberty rd property (which would emtra e almost ali subjects of legislation), but Ut provide irxdes of redress for co'iDteractiiig the oieration aiMl effect of State laws, obnoxious to lTohibitioa; (3) that the thirteenth amendment pwes no pfwer to Congresj to pes the sections referred to because that amendment relates only Ut slavery and involuntary servitode, which it abolishes and gives Congrcvs the power to pJ laws for t$ enforcement;, that this power only extends to the subject matter cf the amendment itself, namely, alaury Aod iflvoluot&ry mitude &qJ nec

The conrccrator was HHiop Coxe, assisted by Bishop Henedict, of North Carolina, and Pishop Uobertson, of Missouri. Tbe altar was handsomely de oralcd with flowers, and williin t!ic chancel rails were trrowin plants. The consecration of Hisliop Knickcrhackcr had s.DOcial interest to the people here, not alone because of the esteem in which he himself is held but owing, also, to the presence of so many Right Ileveiend liishops of tlie Church and such a :reat number of the reverend clergy wbo are attending the Kpiseopal Convention. As tbe choir emerged from the vestry they begun the processional, "O, Day of Rest and tlladness." Following the choir were Risliops Lyman, Robertson, Seymour, Scarl'Oi!gh and Niles and their attendant chalains, many of the reverend clergy ami Archbishops and Medley, Metropolitan of Canada. In the nave wcreHishop-elect Knickerbacker and attending presbyters; Rev. John 15. AVaketicld, of Indiana; Rev- W. W. Raymond. Indiana, and Rev. K. S. Thomas, of Minnesota. There were within the chancel rails Revs. Abraham Reeves. Walter Scott and John Far.de, of Indiana, Rev. Thomas Rickey, Professor of the (Jeneral Theological Seminary, ami others. Bishop Coxe took a scatupon the Kpiseopal throne. Bishops Coxe, Lyman and Robertson read the service. Bishop Whipple, of Minnesota, preached the sermon. His text was Mathew xxviii, verses IS, If), The Bishop's closing words, addressed f to Dr. Knickerbacker, were: "My brother beloved, my heart is over full as I bid you (.lod-s-pced to-day. Tor almost a juarter of a century you have lieen iny own sou in lio'-pcl. All these years 1 have watched you w ith a father's are Your w hole ministry has been given to the flock of which you were tlie lirst ami only pastor. Always foremost in missionary labor, always glad to minister to the binful, the sorrowful, the sick and tbe living, few men have been permitted to so endear themselves to a flock committed to their care. We shall miss your strong arms and stout heart Tlie po ir, the homeless, the suffering will iniss the one whose willing feet were always at their door in hours of sorrow and death. The poor red men, wbo knew you as the brother and companion, will miss their earliest friend, wbo, all these years, have shared in yours and your people's love. They will miss you every wlesre, save from my heart. I would not keep j'ou if 1 could. The Master calls you and you shall go laden with the love of all our hearts. You go in the full maturity of a rounded manhood; strong to endure the hardships; a good soldier of Jesus Christ. In this, the most solemn hour of your life, forget these Bishops, forget this gathered congregation; think only of our blesed Lord, aud think of jxurself as receiving from Iiis pierced hand this apostleship. That so, by the consecration of your w hole self, body, soul and spirit, through tlie power of the Holy Chost, which you receive this day for this aiost lesiiin, you may so fullill your orlice as to receive from Him the crown of lite." Bishop Seymour presented the Bishopelect, and the Metropolitan, of Canada, read the prayer of consecration. Rev. II. Syle and Rev. A. W. Mann, two deaf mutes, were ordained Priets in the Protestant Kpiseopal Church to day. Rev. Dr. (iallandet, of New York, preached a sermon to a large congregation, including many deaf mutes.

The October com report of the Department of Agriculture fully sustains the telegraphic summary of the 10th of September relative to the injuries by frost on the 8th, !th and 10th. There were light fronts later, the most noticeable being on tlie ICth in the northwest. The State average of the condition shows the extent of injury, whish was the greatest in Michigan, Wisxnsin. Ohio and New York. There was also a severe loss in Minnesota and Dakota, and some damage in the elevated portions of Pennsylvania and West Virginia and in tbe northern Counties of Indiana and Illinois in the least advanced fields of com, but scarcely any in Nebraska and none in Kansas is reported except in a few places in Northern Kentucky and Missouri. There is no mention of frosts in any State south of Pennsylvania. The reduction of tbe State averages i: Michigan, from j) to 45; Wisconsin, from 7 to Ohio, from to'il; New York, from 77 to 57. The reduction is seven points in Illinois and live in Indiana. The high September figures have been materially reduced by the frosts. The lost condition from drouth has become more apparent, causing slight reductions in September estimates. In many Southern States the general average condition for field is 78.Ü points less than on the 1st of September, four from frosts in the North and two from drouth. On the Atlan lie Sealoard and sooth of the Irnst areas it is five points below tbe Octoer avrrsge c.f U2, while there is a 4 tr cent, increase in the area. It is tvtenty-eue pciiits lower than tbe Ovtouer

average of the census crop. The prod net of the year will be close to l,C00,uoo0O bushels with more soft corn than last year, mostly in the regions that consume their entire crop. The return of the yields of wheat per acre indicate a production of abont two and onefourth bushels per acre less than the crop of last year. It is but nine and one-half bushels per acre in Obio; ten iu Illinois, and but a fraction above ten in Indiana. It is above twelve in Michigan.- and thirteen in Minnesota. Iowa and California. The Missouri average is twelve bushels. Dakota ami Nebraska exceed sixteen, and the Kansas aver ye is about seventeen. These averages are in several States based on systematical counts. I It is certain the ireneral average yield will not differ niticb from 11. .1 buheN ieracre. The aggregate w ill exceed 4H),si.0" bushels ami may reach Il'O.OO'.O". The quality ii not up to the average yield. The yield of oats is" the full average of a series of years, or about twenty teiht bushels for the whole country. The rane of State averages in the West is from thirty from Missouri to forty-one in Kansas, thirty-six in Northwest. Nebraska and Kansas have tbe largest yield. The crops wili ajrgregate about öOO.lHJO.isjO busheN. The quality is high, averaging eighty-live, and 100 is tfi standard. The barley crop will average between one and two bushels per acre more than last year, approximating .VO.OH000 bushels. California. New York, Minnesota and Wisconsin contribute three fourths of the whole crop. The total crop is in better condition than any year since lfS.. The average is !)'?, while O?tobcr averages in 1SSJ and 1S?S were each PO. The t.rospcct is favorable for a crop above medium. The tobacco crop will l lielow the average in yield.

After lo:t Yr-Mrm f Pnry liuuo- t'oi-iit-ll Kinds Himself the Solei Heir to :tn letale of Millions of Dollars. Ki.mika, N. Y , Oct 11. Iaa: Cornell is a man 103 years of age, who lives on Sullivan street, in this city, with his daughter. Mrs J. W. Kvans, a lady also far advanced in years. Mary Mosiicr, his mother, came to this country in 1770, from Kngland, landing at Horseneck, near Boston. Her father, William Mosher, owned several vessels that plied in the coasting trade Jietween Liverpool, l-on-don and Southampton, lie died inJ'jo. leaving xno.UOo sterling in the Bank of England. Mary Mosher, his only child, formed at school an attachment with which her father was very much displeased, and his oposition to her marriage resulted in her running away from home when she was only fourteen. In 1772 she married .ledediah Cornell, and in 177! went with her husband to live at Schenectady, where Isaac Cornell was loni in 17SiO. Hhe died in tbe early part of thi-j century. After her father's death the executors of his will made every el'ort to lind her whereabouts, but failed', and it was not until after her death that her children found out that their mother had been entitled to the large fortune of her father. Nearly seventy years ago they began a suit lor tbe property. Recently the suit lias been decided in their favor. Only Isaac of all the children of Mary Mosher is still living. The proierty now amounts to millions of dollars. One day last week a messenger appeared in this city ami carried the good news to Mr. Cornell. The old gentleman expects to get his large fortune soon. He is a carpenter by trade, and his life has been a constant struggle with poverty. He is very active and lively for his age. He appreciates thoroughly the good fortune that has befallen him, but occasionally expresses regret that it did not come to him earlier in life.

Serious Charge Against il Professor of Ilm w tag. New Yokk, Oct 12. An announcement today by the Eagle, of Brooklyn, that a "Professor of drawing" connected with "one of the leading educational institutions of the city' had ruined a number of female pupils under bis charge threw tbe managers of the aforesaid institutions into a lively state of indignation. The disclosure which created such a stir among the Professors and female students of Brooklyn states that a certain young lady was enticed from home by a young artist ; that the K'rl's mother induced her to return home, but that she ran away again, and sent word back that she bad been married to the artist. And then the following astonishing statement was made: "The young lady referred to was a student attending the drawing classes in one of the leading educational institutions of Brooklyn. These classes are presided over by a Professor, a foreigner well advanced in life. He is married and has a family. It is alleged by the mother that her daughter fell a victim to the wiiesof the Professor. When tbe disgrace which had befallen her was apparent, she was removed to Baltimore, and there a child was bom. After a time she returned to this city and remained with her family until she was induced to eloie, as already described. The mother consulted a lawyer, and made a most dreadful disclosure to him. She said that her daughter was not the only victim of the Professor's, but tbat several of his pupils Lad been ruined by him. Tt was his custom she says, to keep the pupils late in the afternoon, and to select as bis victims the most confiding and innocent, whom he as sidiously led into sin. The lawyer intends to addre'ss a letter to-day to the President of the institution referred to. laying before him all the statements made by the mother uf the young lady." A Mystery. r.ALtiMor.F..

The Republican Committee says the first amendment is adopted and as nearly as can be estimated the second amendment will get about''UO,(.M votes and probably be defeated, all the way from lo.ono to :0,.lo. Some advocates for the second amendment claim that it has carried but have no figures to show. The Hamilton and Cuyahoga delegates are divided in proportion which has been rerorted. An estimate has been made in w hich bothChaiimen of the Commit tie substantially agree that the Senate will stand Democrats and 11 Republicans; House being til Democrats and 44 Republicans, a majority ot -S on joint ballot.

ON TKIAI. lOU HIS I.IKK. Tbe Bvidence in the Cae of Charles Kntledge. Indicted fr.M mil er. Special to the Sentinel : CKAWior.DsMi.i.r. Oct. 14. The case of the State of Indiana vs. Charles Rutlelge, indicted for murder in the first degree, is on trial in the Circuit Court. The case comes on change of venue from Parke County. The facts elicited by the evidence are about as follows: Charles Rut ledge, the defendant, had a photograph gallery next door to the rrstaurantof George Volncr, the deceased, in Rockville. Mr. Rutledge carried a proof picture of himself into the restaurant of Mr. Yoluer on Saturday, the 13th of last April, and showed it to him. Yolaer's wife came in, took the picture and said that siie would keep it. This excited the jealousy of Yolner, but his anger was not exhibited to Rutied-'e until the billowing Monday morning. When Rutledge came to bis place of business lie was invited by Yolner to come to his kitchen. He wanted to see him. When he reached the kitchen be was forced up stairs by Volncr and into a rear room and the door locked, and then was accosted: "Well, yon d d little son of a b h, what did you give your picture to my wife for?" and without wafting for an answer accompanied the interrogation with blows thick and fast vpon the body, bead and face of Rutledge. Annie Yolner, the daughter of the deceased, testifies that she saw her pa take llatiedgs up stairs, and went to the door and called one Sam Goode, to go up stairs juick. Sain Goode testities that while on the stairs lie heard Rutledge asked to be let go, but before be reached tbe top of the stairs he beard the pistol shots and RutlcJge swept by him, bleeding from several places on the face and nose. The lirst words of Rutledge were, "why did you let that man beat me so? I will go and pive myself 'up. Coode, upon reaching the room, found that Yolner had been shot twice, once through the face and once through the neck, and died shortly alter noon, without speaking. Tbe room was a small one, and there were evidences of a struggle, yolner's wife and daughter are believed to know a great deal more about the deceased's jealousy and anger at Rutledge than they are willing to tell. They are non-committal and uncommunicative, but under the skillful cross-examination of Duncan S Pnett, counsel for the defendant, enough was elicited to show tbat Yolner was very angry at Rutledge, and when Rutledge was forced up stairs they ran for assistance, and if it bad been procured immediately the tragedy would have been avoided. The case will go to the Jury tomorrow noon. t Brutal Outrage in Kentucky. Fra.kiort, Ky., Oct 11.
