Criminal Cocrt —Trial of John Foley for the Murder of Michael Murphy —After our report closed yesterday— Private McGlone was sworn, and testified that Foley was exceedingly abusive in the guardroom prior to the homicide. Witness tried all he could to pacify him, without any effect. Witness never saw bim so bad when under the influence of liquor before as on that occasion. He was restless, Violent, struck the wall with his fist, all without ny apparent cause. He wanted to fight witness, Witness believed Lim to be under a fit of insanity at the time. Cross-examined —W !tnees never saw a drunken man act in the way Foley did. Witness thought proper to keep an eye on Foley all the time he was in there with bim Privates McFarland and Kean testified to the anme state of facts, after which the evidence for the defence closed. Mr Ould called, to rebut— Pet-r Eagan. (Sergeant) sworn —Testified that he saw Foley before he was confined that day; talked to bim on the back apa about ten min- utes before be was put in the guard-room. Ad- vised him to go up stairs to bed. F. was anxious to see Ma; askins. Witness finally induced him to vo up stairs, but he came almost immediately down again; 28 witness thought to yetsome milk for bissupper Witness saw bim in the back quard-room shortly efter. He was not very violent thes—appered to be perfectly sane. Next time witness saw bim was after Mur- phy waashot. Foley was always very noisy and ienereienmne when drunk, and always bad to be confined. : By one of the Jory —It was not at all necessary to make any noise in Joading a gun Major Haskins recalled —Saw nothing in Fo- ley’s appearacce to indicate i d what nken men might n Ly exhibit Corp Nolan recailed.—Saw Foley wken he he firsteame to the quarters that afternoon. He had not the appearance of an insane man. Wit- news never told any one that he meant to put the accented through at bis trial Private Langdon recalied. —Testified that he also saw Foley, and be looked intoxicated Sergeant McCourt —Had seen Foley at 4 o'clock p.m He was very merry, but there was nothing unusual about bis eyes ‘The evidence closed here, and Mr. Norris, for defense, submitted a prayer for instructions to the jury, as follows: 1 The Court tnstruct the jury that, toconstitute the crime of murder, the killing must be with malice aforethougbt, eitber express or implied by jaw, and that although they sbould believe that *he death of the deeeased (Michael Murphy) was € ned by the discharge of the load from the musket In the bands of the prisoner, without any provocation, yet, if they further believe that the szid musket wentoff accidentally, or that the prisoner was no! ‘are that ft was loaded, he can be guilty of manslaughter only; and if they have any doubt as to either of these questions, the Prisoner is entitled to the benefit of the doubt. 2. If the jury believe that the prisoner was in- texicated from the use of ardent Spirits at the time of the commission of the offense charged in the indictment, whilst drunkenness, of iwelf, does vet relieve bim from weet responsibility, yet it is afietto be considered by them in connection with atl the evidence in thecase, as to the question of Intent 3. If the jury believe from the evidence that the pr'soner, at the time of committing the homicide in the indictment mentioned, was in a deranged state of mind, from whatever canse, so as to have been incapeb!e of understanding the legal conse- quences of his act, or of bis social and moral re- lations to others, or of distinguishing sight from wrong in relation to the particular ‘acl of which he stands charged. he ought to be acquitted. 4. If the jury believe from the evidence afore- said, at the time that be committed the homicide charged in the indictment, he was laboring under some mental delusion, which for the time being entirely centrolied bis will, be is not accountable in law on the said charge, and ought to be ac- quitted 5. If the jury have any doubt as to the case, either fo the bomicide or the question of sanity, he defendant should be ‘acquitted. 6. The lew does not require that the insanity which sbsolves from crime should exist for any definiteperiod, but only tbat {t exist atthe moment when the act occurred with which the accused stands charyed ‘The District Attorney objected to the phraseolog: of several of the instructions, and to the third an fifth ones entire length. but without 1 Dey were srgued at some cencluding when the court adjourned. To-day—Mr_ Norris addressed the Court in reply to the argument of the District Attorney, in op- position to the prayers by the defence yesterday. y n of Mr. Norria’s argunegnt, Ould ‘off-red the following prayers on the part of the prosecution : 1. Ifthe jury believe from the evidence that the Prisoner, without provocation, and by means of deadly weapon, intentionally killed the de- seated, when the said prisoner was voluntarily jutoxicated, and while he was laboring under a teriporary suspension of reason, directly and it mediately caused by such voluntary intoxication, then be {s guilty of murder. 2. If the jary believe from the evidence that the Prisoner, without provocation, and by means of @ deadly weapon, tptenticnally killed the de- ceased. and that such kililng was the immediate result of intoxication on the part of the prisoner, and occurred while sucb intoxication lasted, then the prisoner is guilty of murder. 3. If the Sury believe, from the evidence afore- said, thatthe lsoser Without provocation and by means of 2 deadly weapon killed the deceased, ther from antecedent malice or from malice springing up atthe time of the use of the said deadly weapon, then he ts guilty of murder. 4. In order to acquit the prisoner on the ground of insanity, it must be ved to the satisfaction of the jury that at the time of the killing of the the prisoner was insane, and it is not sufficient to sustain the defense of insanity that the jury from the evidence aforesaid are in deubt whetber the prisoner at the time of such killing ‘was jnsane or not S. In order to acquit the prisoner on the ground of insanity, it must be clearly to the satis- a of the jury that at the time of the killing the prisoner was laboring under such a defect of reason, from disease of the mind, as not to know the nature and quality of the act be wns doing; or if he did know it, that he did not know be was doing what was wrong. Mr. Ould argued the above {ustructions for the prosecution. After which Mr. Norris, for de- fense, offered the following : It ts for mot ort to determine under all the cir- cumstances of the case, whether the prisoner —- not guilty of murder, or guilty of man- slaughter Mr. Norris then proceeded to reply to the in- structions presented on the part of the prosecution P.& The case was given to the jury at 12.20 P- m., amd they retired to their room. After an absence of an bour and a quarter, they returned with a verdict of guilty as indicted. pris- oner, who bad ‘tained a bold demeanor up to this time, turned deathly pale, and seemed quite unmanned by the beg ts, the j At the instance it.

James Walker has been commissioned to paint a cabinet picture which will contain, en groupe, the portraits of the different representatives of the Press now inthis city. We may leok for a work of excellence from the pencil of so fine an artist. President Lincoln sat for bis portrait at Brady’s eries, in this city, yesterday. Brady will soon ublish a fe picture of the P: and Cab!- net, which will be the finest work of the kind ever Issued.

Messrs P. & 8. will soon, we hear, bave on ex- hibition some fine paintings, which are to be sent to them from New York. ‘The copy of Barbee’s “ Pisber Girl”’ ts a source of much delight to the art-loving residents of this city. It will be at Philp & jomons for some time. An odd mo- Se can be spent most satisfactorily at this cosy resort. Drory is quite industrious of late, and bas nearly * _ ed a excellent composition of ‘Children ishing. Hutchings is engayed in reproducing some pt, little studies from nature, made last summer during his excursions in the country. He hes made rapid strides towards excellence of late. Bierdstat’s picture of Laramie Peak, was sent yesterday to Philadelphia, to be piaced in the exhibition at that city, which opens to-day. Elis has been engaged to model a medallion ot the President for the Indian Bureau. He will use Brady's photograph for that purpose. Barbee will return to St. Louls soon, to fill some orders that he has for portrait busts of citi- zens of thatcity. He will probably be accom- —— by Stanley, who will make a tour West for the purpose of study. Mr Story, one of the artists at Brady’s, is Just now hard at work upon some portraits of the Cabinet Ministers, which are soon to be exhib- ited et this gallery Kensett will leave next month for Europe, and will be gone all summer. Celeman and Hall are both in Spain, which country they write, is one of the best fields for the artist's study. Among a collection of pictures in the Possession of Mr Titcomb, at the Capitol,we find an original sedind (or & most excellent copy) of the Earl of trafford, by Van Dyke There [ uite an inter- esting little story connected with this picture, as to its history and the manner of its changing own- ers,&c. Two portraits in this collection, which are accredited to Peter Lilly, are subjects for care- ful study—one of the Duchess of Marlborough is a work of excellence. He hns also here the copy of the pointing of Jupiter lo which was formerly in the collection of Burton the actor These, with other pictures and some oid engravings, dupl!- cates of which are rot elsewhere to be found, make the collection one of mucb Interest. Mr. Titcomb, too, is willing to oblige those who have an interest in works of art, by showing to them every courtesy.

Resolved, That we do not recommend Mr. Bee- ers to the confidence or assistance of the commu- nity “Quantico.” the Washington correspondent of the Alexandria Sentinel, says: “The space be- tween the free-stone cornice of the Rotundo and the iron work of the new Dome fs being plastered and will be painted in fresco.

Center Manet —The supply of provisions offered by dealers in the Center Market this morn- ing was plentiful and of superior quality. The stands fn the abeds were nearly all occupied, and the attendance in the area and at the street stands waslarge.

Bunch fish, rock, perch, &c.,were selling for 20 cents per bunch. The vegetable dealers were doing a fair share of the business this morning, and though the gangways were not crowded with purchasers, thete was apparently an active demand during a part of the sale hours. Tbey bay market presented an average supply, with a moderate demand. THeateRr —The Naiad Queen was performed again last night to a full house. and seemed to bave lost none of its interest. The magnificence of the scenery called forth repeated rounds of applause, and the intensely ludicrous sayings and doings of “Jefferson” convulsed the audience with laughter. This afternoon the little folks have an exhibition for their ial enjoyment, and doubtless Glenn will be overrun with ‘Youn: America.”’ To-night the play will be re; ted when those who bave been unzble to secure seats during the week, by applying éarly may have an opportmaty of seeing this grand play before it el.sesy We UNpeRsTanp that a petition, numerously signed, ts in circulation among the citizens of Waab nm prving the City Council to repeal that ion of the police law which provides for the tion prorata of our present municipal night police force; and also to reduce the present day police force, so as to allow of but two police- men fn attendance at each of the magistrate offices, Removat or Guns. —Yesterday, orders were recelved at the Ordnance Department to prepare for shipment by railroad a number of heavy guns, many of which went out in the afternoon by the 3.20 train.
