THE DENTAL WORLD EXCITED. A very curious ease was tried yesterday before Judge Kelly, ol tho Sixth District Court, and a Jury. Dr. i'rank Abbott, Dean of the Dental College, sued Ceueral Patrick H. Jones, Register of tho county of Now York, lor professional services, in attending to the masticators ol little Tommy Jones, tho minor sob of the tieueral. Tho amouut claimed was $156, on which. It was admitted, that $75 had been paid. Ex Judge Curtis, who appeared lor tieueral Jones, stated to tho Jury that his client dofonded the action as a matter ul principle, believing that the plaiuttff had beeu lullv paid, aud that this suit was an attempt at extortion, aud that the work doue would b.tve to be done over aud holdiug little Tommy in Uls arms, he said, -'We will put Tommy with you aud all )u evidence uud mark him exhibit No. 1. " The plaiu llil" contended that the work was done in a superior manner and was lullv worth the amount charged. To support his view of the caso he called Dr. Allon and Dr. Williamson, who testified that tho work was worth the amount charged. Dr. Stephen Main and Dr. Jar vis gave evidence tor the defendant. The expert tvatl luouy was very conlllctiug and veriUea the bid adage that doctors disagree. As an lustance ol tbe charges the plulntill claimed $&4 lor two uours' work done ou the 2Uih ol June, 1870, as serting that It was not the tlnio consumed, but the beucllt to the child lhat was to be considered. Little Tommy gave his evideuco with great nonchalance and coolness, stating that lie dldu't pay particular atten tion to the time consumed, us he was anxious to gel out ol the deutist'g chair.

Sinco the murderous attempt some light has been tnrown upon the Suhwiorslers and thoir iamny rela tion", and thoro is reason to believe that the wile's accusation ol improper lutorcourso between lamer and daughter is uulouuued.

I Spurs to (peculation this morning wero tbo reverse ol formidable, and scarcely excited a movement be. yond the Jog-trot fluctuations ol a one per oent mar kel These, such as they were, wero derived lrom the various statements put lorth as lo tho position ol the "fast train" question and the probabilities ol a strike by the employes or the Pennsylvania Railroad. To keep things lively, reports both pro and con lollowod each oilier in quick succession?last trains woro to be taken off, and ibey were not to be taken off; there wts to bo a strike, and there was not to be a strtko? so between this slate of utllrmation and denial tb? market was driven up and down as though It were s ball and the brokers ao many speculative polo players. Plausible stories to tho efloct that tho reduction ol 10 per cent of wages by tho Pennsylvania ooni. pany would be reslaiod by ihe persons In ihoir employ* drove down the price of the slook in the Philadelphia market to 28tf, while Lake Shore and Central and Hudson were advanced In our owu market to the oxtent ol noarly ono per cent under the Impression that a auspeusion ol truffle over Mr. Scott's line would correspondingly benefit the Vender. bllt roads. It would even do more; lor, lu caae ol In* terrupilon, a quietus would probably be given, lor ihi time being, to that exasperating "last train" which u trying the souls ol railroad managers. All these cslcu laiious, howsver, caino to naugbi later ly the day, when It was understood thst the Brotherhood ol En gineers, soliened, perhaps, by those lraternal princi ples which distinguish the City ol Brotherly Love, would undoubtedly accept the reduced pay and ihe situation. Hopes of a row being thus rendered ?llm, and ihere nelng nothing In particular to bull them on. Central and Hudson and Lake Shore fell back severally lrom 90X to 90 aud from 49 to 48X and olosed at the latter figures. Illinois Central was again exceptionally weak, dropping off lrom 64 to 5^X, thus correcting ths anomaly presented last night of the stock being-quoted nearly a point higher' in London than in Now York, Speculation being diverted to the railroads, Western Union aud PaciDo Mall were greatly neglected, and consequently prossnted but loeble fluctuations. Th? coal snares were more active, working within fluctua tious ol a single point and bare of any outside Interest. A raiher apocryphal story comoa to the elleot that Mr. Goweu has entirely succeeded In the nnsncial matters which took him abroad. This Is supposed to point to entire Ireedom ol action on the part of ths Koadlng company, an opposition to all combinations and a marketing ol coal lor roady money to the oxtent oi tho production ol the mines. The outlook is Dot a very oheerlul one to the olher coal carriers under any circumstances, and is likely to be rendered still mo? gloomy II this story of a practical opposition on Vb? part of the Reading company should prove to be a fact THM BALKS TO-DAT.
