Hor words aro with the rising or falling inflection, eccording Lo the sengo. For instnuce, she will say, * What does Polly want?" She will thon answer, * Polly want anple; Polly want cracker; Poliy want ~water;” otc., and if no ons ays any attontion to Ler, sho will chango s emphssis with tho kil of an orator, When sho praises borsolf by saying, * Prot! ‘f Polly,” she suva it in & soft, loving tone.

A. GAGE. His Oaso Is Postponod Till Friday. Counsel for Dofonso Aro Kot Qfiito Pre- pared o Arguo the Molion to Quash tho Indictments. They Intend to Do It Thoroughly and Exhaustively. The Criminal Court-room was crowded yostor- day morning, it being understood that s motion would be mndo by counsel to quash tho Indict- monta ngainst David A. Gnge. Judge Rogers occupiod tho boueh, A fow minutes after 10 o’clock the Court said: ‘What have you this morning, Mr. Recd? Mr. Recd—T'ho flist thing was tho Gago caso, but nono of the sttornoys aro here yot. I will wait a fow minutes, your Honor, for them to como {n, and, if thoy do not come, I will send for thom. Iwant to know what thoy iutend dolng. The Court—I thought it was laid ovor until to-marrow. Mr. Reed—Wo did not mako the agroement, T gaw Mr, Bwett, and ho said this morning—that it wonld not tako him any time—that e would simply como in and make a motion asking for further time, B . In o fow momonts Mr, Swett camo in and took o soat nenr the Biate’s Attorney, with whom ho entored fnto o whisporad convorsation, Whon the talking closod, Mr. Reod said: It tho Court pleaso, M. Swett is horo now, and I would ltko to hava something dono in this Gago matter, Mr. Swett—1I oxpectod to havo scon Mr, Dox- tor this morning, but he understands this case g coming up to-morrow morn- ing, and bad not como to bhis oflice whon I eame from thero s moment ago, I under- stand wo are to entor a motion to quash, but wo oro not ready to arguo it this morning, The cnso, na it sooms to mo, involves o prosccution under entftely new statutes, It is easy for nn{- Dody to ot up hero and make a sposch about it but that will not onlighten the Court. Wo_wish to get all thewe slnlutos togothor, aud tho authorities bearing upon thesa new questions, and prosont thom in snch form au an fuvestiga. tion of tho quostion shall ghow. I have beon devotin: tho Iast two days to or Wedoesday it, and by Tuosdny mnoxt vill have comploted my iuvestigations, and I thinl I could present the quostiou in u moro in- telligent mannor than I could by talking about it gonerally without making an investigation, I would like to sce Mr. Doxter bofore setting the dny.l I suppose he will bo hore in a few mo- monts,’ Mr. Recd—Do you want to wait until he comes n Ar. Bwott—Yas, A Inrcony caso way then talon up, and Mr. Swott lofu the Court-room. Whils n witness was cxumining bo rolumad, and, whon tho vit. ness had been told to * wait 4 minute," ho eaid to the Court ¢ M. Swott—As to this Gu§o ‘mattor, your Hon- or, a §misunderstanding has occurred betwann Mr. Doxtor and myself, and in this way. Tho 080 was sot, as your Honor remembers, for this murulnq. Aftorwards Mr. Rood met me, and suid ho hiad somo somo trinls for to-day, and it would porhiaps be moro convenient to have the matter called on Saturdaymorning. I said I had 1o objections, and I told Mr, Doxter of it. In talxing with Mr. Reed, the question about tho argumont eame up, and I told him I wanted to mako & motlon to quash, but did not want to moke tho argument on Saturday, Ho thon suggosted, if that wora so, I might as well come in under the old sgroc- mont, nod make & Teldny_ morimg, and I neglected to go back to Mr. Doster and 0 tell him about it ‘i‘lzlu morning he is not in iy offico, and cannot boe found, Tha Court—Lot it go over, then, Mr. 8wott—I want to stato furthor, then, I might as woll bavo a time fixed for the arcu- ment now. This caso j8 one in which—und I boliovo tho prosecutor agracs with us, on this motion to quasn which wo intend to make, all tho faots which appear on record or are cortain to appear—all written documonts should como in, 8o that the Court may reaj- 1{ pasa upon _this question. For, if it is cloar that no Indictments can attach, it might oy well be declded at one time as another, In ordor to get tho quostion fully bofors tho Court, I have talton tho pains to go to tha city records, and ob- tain all tho orders, and motions, and resolutions since 1869, in reforenco to the loaniug of the city's funds ; and also am ondoavoring ta collect oil'of tho statutes, 80 ns to got thom in small oompass, and hand thom to your Honor nt tho time of tha nrgmment, that, without going through -a multiplicity of books, oy, miy all o before you. I cannot complote tho work bo- foro next’ Tuesdsy. I bave got it Lalf dono now; oud I boliovo it will sliorton this came, or, ntlenat, fucilitato its fuir and full prosontu~ tion to the Court to simply allow me timo to finishiit. That i all T wish. It is not my de- siro to postpona this caso at all; but to bring it to immediate trinl,—just as soon as all the facts pertaining o it can bo invostigated and presont- ed. It is my desire also that tho caso shonld be presented to your Monor at this term of tho Court, so far ag it can be dona by this motion, sud for it not to go over, Therefore, as far a wo ara concorned, we would bo ready by Wednog- day morning certainly to make the arguments, Mr, Recd—It the Court ploese : The calendar for noxt week coutaing some very important casos, and 1 shsll bave to be away Monday and Tuesday, ss I oxpect to go to Bpringflold ~ Sundsy night, and ° shall not be back until Tuesday night or \Vudunudn.{ morning. Thero are sonie important cases sol for Wedneaday. ‘I'hero ia n manslanghter caso— ono man killed anothor ont_in the country— specinlly set, and tho witnessés havo boon no- titied to be hore, and that I canuot defor, be- causo it would discommode tho wituesses, I wonld suggest that it e Gngo casc] go over until next Saturday, if it goes ovor to wext week at all, I prefor to argue it to-morrow, and told Mr. Swatt o, but o says ho canuol be ready, Of courso it is williin® your Ilonor's diseretion to say whether thoy ought to have farthor timo. Bug if it goos over to & weel from Saturday, which is the Inat day of the term, you would have no timo to exnminoe it, unless you took the tima and camo into cowrt at the noxt tern and let tho_ othor Judgo cntor what- aver order yon wonld direct him to eutor, which I am perfectly well satisfled yon could do, Mr. Swott —T would agreo to that, and would profer that it bo decided b onco, The only ob- Ject in usking o dalay is that we can got nli tue Btatntos and records which, Mr. Recd consents, wo cou prosont in connoction “with this motion, that it cun be fully aud fairly presonted, "Tho Court—I have no objeotion to giving you any day noxt waok, becauso it is apparent _from tho dcaket being full that it will take all of next weok to try tho casos, and that, whatever may bo tho result of the motion to quash, no trial could oceur next weelt, Mr, Swolt—Yos. I presumo that is sottled. “The Court~1t would huve to go over to tha noxt form of the Court for trial, if tho Court should rofuse to quesh tho indichnenty after argument. I liave, therofore, no objection to giving you any day noxt week, or in ‘any weel sfter you may appoeint, . Tho week after, Judge Moore will bo hete sud will listen to the nrgu- mont and give you & tull heaving. I would pre- for that, if it i to go over ko long, Locauso tho quostions involved in this mattor will doubtless Lo mostly based upon the construction of statutes and declsions upon thom, and I would vot want to hastily dispose of them, I would, probubly, after hearing tho arguments and tho roforences to all the stotutes aud lnw bearing upon tha caso, want timo to considor. =T shonld, thorefore, profer tyself, that you let it go over entirely toJudgo Moore, until next mouth, But it it is desirnble, and you can fix a time within this torm, I will, of conrso, disposs of it, I wontd meko thisSuggostion: I do not so hiow T can dispoan of nuy quostion of fact, It is rather & singular proceeding to prosent tho facts togather with tho law of tho cuso. An indict- mont stands for itkolf, nnd, upon a motion to quinsh, T must prosumo that tho faots allogedin the indictment aro tyue—that they can be suatainod. Ido not feel disposed to tako up a case upon o motion to quash upon the law, and deside au the samo time any of tho faots of the oase— Mr. Bwett—Nu, sir. he Court—\Without I could hear the wholo ens0, Mr, Bwott—Yonr Ifanor misundorstood me in the offcot of what I snld. Tor instance, tho in- diotmont for porjury ts baged upon an_ afidavit, and nobody will disputo but what that Iu tho aii- duvit made, sud tho enly aflidavit, Therefore wo wora Intonding to bring in tho afldavit and soa whether any indictment for porjucy could llo un- dor it, Mr, Roed—T havo agreed to do that, The Court—Bo far us that is concornod, that would be proper, ir, Roed—Tho indictment rofora to tho afl- dayit and soya it i on file, Ar, Bwott—We do not propose to introduce any quostions of fact, and ask your Ionor to posn wpon thom ns quontions of fact, Only whera there is evidenen of fucts, which s agreed wpon, bearing upon thess indioiments, wo might sk yonr Ilonor to pnes upoi it. Mr. Rtoed—Of couso, nn tha nfidavit is re- forred to in tho indictment, that would he ronor, ¥ Tho Court—TI think the afiidavit should ho eonsldored, boeauso that fi tho foundation of tho chargo. Mr. Reed—Cortainly, Tho Court—Tho fndictmont must contain ko much as Wil show what tho man sworo to, and whut he was swonring about it. If it is nog full ouongh, tho afidavit itsolf, being tn writing, might be prononted in conngation with it. Ido not moenn to axoludd that, I menn simply to sny that Ido not propose, upon amotion that in- volven o question of Inw upon the face of the in- dictmont, to hava tostimony on eithot sido pro- nontad, and declde faots of that sort. Mr. ann—Nn, sir; wo will not msk your Honor, The Court—Unloss tho?y aro all prosonted., aud the wholo caso subwmitted to me, which would be vety extinordinary should it bo done.

Mr. Reed—I will agroo Lo tako it up next wock 'riday, Mr. 8wott—T will agreo to that.
