NEW YORK NOTES. SDeatt of atnall Myden--A Fugitive from the Kearneytles-The PFrposed menu. meat to Major Andre -- Polee Mat toren. Nzw Yono. Jan. 2.--Sarah Hayden. whom Felix Liveile shot on Centre street, Ohristmas Day, died yesterday. Although only fifteen years of saei, she as married the 6th of Oato. d bher last. Lavelle Is in prison. He claimed the hr shooting was accidental. She said he intended . to do It. The bullet entered the left breast and y passed In an oblique direction entirely through the body. it William Tensfield, who smye he Is pursued Sby ,Kearneyltes ifrm san rancisco, and who is supposed to bave relatives in Brooolyn. went - to police bead quarters for protection yester da. and was given a room for the night. The 2Iibune says the harsh historieal fact Is not only that Andre died justly. but that in his zealous servloe to the British cause he was hardly true at all times to the highest ideal of a gen'leman and soldier. Many a brave man n has played the part of a spy upon his dbuntry's n enemies and proudly dled a shameful death. ,. but Andre did more than risk himself in die Snise within the enemy's lines. He applied himself tote task of making a orrupt bargain I t with a traitor conducted a long correspondence I with Arnold Inas a eie of open 3ypher. and prostituted (we use Wasrington Irving's words) i a I ag of trace to this unholy negotiatilon. e It is dlffl3ult to escape the reflection that there are memories far more worthy of pres ervation than Andre's. which are falling away into oblivion, without so much as an effort be Sing made to save them. If. however, the design I is as stated by some, simply to place a per manen. t mark upon a spot of reat historical Sintetest, the proposed memorial will be a pub lie benefit. There were over 200 arrests for drunkennessoi in the city up to midnight yesterday. In one statio,.house, at midnight. five women were so r grossly Intoxicated that they were unable to give their names. They were lying side by aide in a drunken sleep. A well-dressed young man, very much intoxicated, was taken to the fourth precinct at midnight, having been pinked ip from the pavrement, where he had fallen. He was robbed of a gold watch and chain a diamond ring and diamond studs and 52f. Wben Patrick Sweney got home at night he found his daughter Maria in a drunken con dition. A quarrel ensued, and the result was both ore locked up, the daughter for intoxica tiop,ngd the father for assault and battery.
