'Tho prosccution made onc point which they scemed to think n gront doal of. That was, that I told the hackman to drive to tho Grand Central Hotel, aud that I know Fisk was a froquent visilor there. Mra, Moore, hor- solf, tostilics that ho novor was thoro but six timos to visit lior, and two orthroopeopla foldmo thnt ho was sick * during that wook, As for toll- ing tho driver tq go to tho Urand Central, I can only oxplain it in thié way: Ihavo slways told o hack-driver to go to a hotel when I wanted to go to o, particular stroet, if o hotel was located noar it Tor inatanco, if T wauted to go to Bar- clay or Vesoy street, Iwould toll the driver to tako mo to tho Antor House, andif I wauted to 0 to Princo or Houston stroels, I would tell tho ivor to stop at tho Motropolitan, But now oll I havo to'say is this : If I woro looking for and l{lng in wait for Fisk that day, snd.if I know his whereabouts as well as the prosecution say I did, I could fimt a8 woll have fonnd him at tho Grand Opera lousa or in its neighborhood.

He had oxpected an entiro "acquitial. Ho declared that he was the victim of oxcited public sonti- ment ; that the jury had their minds made np to convict him before tho testimony was givun 3 that at their selection tho jurors state that they lind opinions. Ho was confldont, however, that his conneel would obtain stay of procacd- ings, nnd then ingure him another trial. From the New York Herald, Jan, 5, . During the long hours wnlting for tho verdiot the courtroom was not more than half orowd- ed. Tho ladies rolated to Stokes' family, all drossed in deop mourning, woro grouped to- othor sitting on chairs, and above them the chandelior burned brightly with its many lampa. Bomae few persons had gone to aleop on the up- %or bonchos, and hero and there an officor of the ‘ourt strolled around and gazed vacsutly at the colling, The m{‘orlers soribbled without pur- pose on tho fly-sheots, and converaod with ench other ebout tho incidents of tho trial, Tho Judga'sscat wasvacant, as ho had gono to dinner at either Delmonico's or the Astor Houso, and it was rumored that the counsel for Btokes, and Beech, Fullorton, and Follows wero dining with him, In the Bupreme Court Chambers the pria- oner, Edward 8.

Bo sanguine was he that half an hour before the L\u’y came in with their voodict Ionry Btokes, is consin, had o bail bond mado out,s0 a8 to give bail immodiately on tho possiblo disngreo-' mout of the jury. Allttle beforo 10 o'clock a uumgtuauu Lanquet was prepared for tho jury in the Bupreme Court Cambers, A long table was sot, covered by a whito cloth, on which was spread game, fowl, aud sll the delicacies of tho soason.

Ho seomed olated with the full con- seiousness that the deliborations of the jury would eithor set Lim freo, or elso give him an opportunity to give bail on account of thoir dis- agroemont. . Blokes took a light suppor at nquarter to ton. A dozen oystors on the half shell woro brought to him. Ho ate four or fivo ; the rest wero loft lrlnn on their sholls, Noithor the mother nor fathor of 8tokes, fortunatoly, aa tho soquol will show, was present at the doliy- ory of tho vordict, While waiting for tho vordict, the Indies con- nected with 8loko's family, all of whom appear- ad to boloug to tho nighest ranl of soclety, seem- ad to be iu doep trouble and anxiety, and sver and anon yould lool at the clock dnd again at tho door through which the jury wore to pass to their soata, Blokes kopt on smoking, and his younger brothor, Ioraco, who has been so faithful and steadfast to him throngh the varied viclssitudes of Loth trials, s8aemed far moro anxious than the privoner himeelf.

Bince my Inst report, Tam glad to bo abla to say, tho old debt of tho canal has been fully paid, and the canal and its revouues, under {ho {urmu of tho contract by which thoy were held in truat, rovorted to the Btate. Thore is, howover, & lion on tho cnunl snd its Tovonuos in favor of tho City of Chicago, for work dono in deoponing the Bummit Division of the canal. Tho Twonty-sovonth Genoral Assombly ad- Juated the lion of the Oity of Chieago by fting the prineipal of debt due ‘that city at 33,055,340, with interest theroon until paid. To meet this sgreoment, tho Cloneral Assembly autherized tho issuc of $260,000 rovenue doficit bonds (which havo accordingly been issucd), and that the Cen- tenl Railroad fund then in tho Treasary and tobo recelved, and the revenues from tho canal thon in tho Treasury and to bo received, until the dobt ehall bo paid, anda tax ontho entire proporty of the Btato of ono and one-half mills on tho dollar on the nssessmont_of properfy for the yoars 1871 and 1872, should bo devoted to tho pn{munt of the principal and intercat of said debt.
