This afternoon, while the Criminal Uourt Was in session, Mesers. Bradley, sr, and R T. Merrick appeared in court fer the Purpose of baving s day set for the trial of their clien', Jobn H. Surratt, indicted for the murder of Abrabam Lincotn, late President, &., and filed the following motion: To the Honorable the Judge of the Criminal Conrt cf the District of Columbia: Jonn H:Sar- ratt, by bis counsel, respectfally showeth That in the moath of October last he was ar- rested in ried and placed on beard an armed vessel of the United States, and from that time forth was kept in close confinement, heavily ironed, allowed only for a brief timke ocea- sionally to breathe the fresh air; wholly ex- eluded from all intercourse with any hu- man being bat those who were employed to administer to his absolute needs, without change of external raiment obliged to wear the very dress in which Be was arrested, and thus kept Im prison until the month of Febru- ary, when be was transferred to the jail in the city of Washington, in which jail he has been ever since and still is confined. He bas no compiaint to make of the severity ofthis confimemeat on board ship, where he Was treated witb 45 mucb lenity as the officer in command deemed consistent with hi« duty, apd where be was not subjected to any indig- bity or personal injary. And since his trans- fer to his present prison he has been allowed such indulgence as could properiy be deemed permissable towards one charged with an of- jence so beinous in its character, as that alleged against bim Shortly after his imprisonment in the jail, be was. at bisown demand. at the Decemper term of this court, brought into court and then Srraigned om the indictment which bad been found against him before he reached the Unitee States It is obvious to this honorable court that the offense with which he stands charged, consti- tutimg As it does part of the history of this country, bas undergone the most searching investigation that tne power of this Govern. ment, quickened by the unusual feeling of indignation and horror of its people couid make, that all the facts and circum- stances of that momentous event, in ali their ramifications, and as to all the persons con- pected therewith, were with the atmost dili- gence sumulated by the strongestof human motives—ambition, hate and love of money sought out recently after the occurrence and placed im the possession of the Government; that the :prisoner bimselfhas been tracked from eountry to country, from nation to na- tion, through three continents to secure his arrest. and the Executive Departments of the Government bas brought trom the Papal do- minions and from Eagiand all the witnesses beyond the jurisdiction of the United States whose testimony would be needed by the pros- ecation atthe trial, and placed them under the contro! of the District Attorne In this con- nection we again refer your Honor to the re- portof the Judiciary Committee adverted to an tue argumentof this motion some days since and which contains the tull correspon. dence of the Secretary of State with foreign governments on this subject. It thus appears, and the fact is placed be- yond doubt by official records, that the prose- cation bas bad the fullest notice, and the amplest means to prepare for the trial of this cause at this second term of the Uourtafter the prisoner's arraignment, and can have no Feasonable ground upon which to ask its fur- ther postponement. Immediately after his are raignment the became began to prepare for tense, and from time te time his connsel bave notified the District Attorney and his aesistant of the progress of that Preparation, and that the uncertainty of bei; able to get bereoue partucular witness alone prevented their fixing a day for the trial. More than two wreks ago they informed them that they had discovered where that witness was, and tbat they would be ready tor trial im two weeks time. Nearly a week ago they moved in this honorable court to have a day set down for the trial of the cause, and it was resisted, and @ motion thereupon made by ibe prosecuting attorney tha: the cause be continued. The means of the prisoner have been utterly exhausted in seeking the evidence to establish beyond all doubt his perfeet innocence of the charges preferred against him: to show to all the world that be is free from any stain of guilt er complicity in or comntvance at, or «vem 8 suspicion of the terrible tragedy with which the proseention seeks to convict nim. He is now ready. He chauenges the enquiry, and in the name of justice, hamanity, and the due administration of justice to all, wh: er their condition in life, by the law of the land and under the bill of rights, the charter of our liberties, be demands a speedy trial—a (rial at this term of the cour’, and that he shall not, if innocent. be held longer in close confinement, rejected and abborred by men as thougo guilty, and day by day deprived of the means by which he will vindicate his name and establish bis right to walk abroad as a tree man. The counsel for the prisoner, therefore, comes imto court and prays your honor w overrule tbe motion of the District Attorney for the further continuance of the cause, and asks that you will designate some dayat the presert term of the court fur the trial thereof, Jos. H. Bravie R. T. Mugzick, Jes. H. Brapiey, Jr, Counsel tor John H. Sarratt Mr. Carrington spoke of the kind treatment Surratt had received, and said it was not mece-sary to submit to the motion of counsel, &s requested. At the proper time he should be able to proceed with the case. and was willing that he should have a speedy trial: Which would be as soon asthe interests of accu-ed and the Government could be proper- ly consulted. He expected at the trial to be able to satisfy the jury, the court, and all the world that Surratt was guilty as indicted. Judge Fisher did not think that the prisoner Bad cause to complain, and there was no rea- son why he should be very impatient, for tera: were frequently six months in jail fore trial; but still he desired to have the trial this term, and signified that it would be agreeable to proceed tothe trialon or about the 27h of May Mr. Bradiey,sr.. snid :-—We will be ready, then, on the 20th of May; and if the District Attorney is not ready on that day, we will continue to postpone the case until the 27th of Me The District Attorney did not feel disposed to acquiesce im the proposition, and still said 16th of June. mee the motion for the con- Upusnce Of the case has been overruled, I hope the District Atterney will state some day when ‘ll be ready co try the case. District Attorney.—1 cannot answer the gentleman at present. I shall first have to consult wiih my Sssistant, and in the mean lume will conciude as to the time for proceed - ing with the case. The particular day I can- pot now fix. but they shall hear from me in due time 1 think it Unreasonable, in the midst of the regular court business, to ask me to fix upon the exact time when I shall be ready Mr. Merrick.—1 think it is searcely right for Bim to decline to say when he will be ready Mr. Carrington —1 do not feel und. any ob- Higation to teli him when I shall be ready. Mr. Merrick —May it please the Court, I do net see then that there is anyth. left tor us but announce in open Court, it shail de Sgreeabie to your houor, that we shail be ready Lo proceed th the trial of John H.
