The Jury haying been called, Mr. Brodtcy said be desired to, call th tention of thé Codrt to an incident which oc- curred yesterday where the witness mide &n witack on oe of the counsel, xnd he re specttuliy requested that the reporter read the same, as the Court wae much engaged at the time and no doubt did not he-r what was said. Iie thonght there was nu provocation to bringJorth such an attack aud be thought the Qourt upon looking into the same apd hearirig the notes read would sée there was no provocation which led to the attack and thére should be some observation: takenof It-by the Court. 1t was dae to members of the hur thut the Conrt shonld notice such things and couo- s+] shouid be protected. ‘The proceedings were ‘then read by Mr. Clephane, the offtcial reporter. x Judge Fisher said he did not hear the tan- guage of the witness In rezurd to gun-bouts, He was at the time reading a note, but sup- pored when the witness mate the remxrk to Mr. Merrick that he bad been worried by couneel on the cross-examinguon. Now, he did pot see anything said by Mr. Merrick to provoke the reply made by the witness, al- thongh on one occasion Mr. Merrick did say romething about the penitentiary. I was nut the place of the witness to take exception to ny remarks made by the counsel m the ¢ » room. He cautinned this witness and ali other ‘witnetses that they must make no remarks in- stlting to counedl. Judge Fisher sald though it was proper for him to say that hehad never aeen a case where there was 0 much trouble About the exammation of witnesses, nnd so much bitterness of feeling, he had never seen Witntsses cross-etamined so, and he would say thatit was no wonder that witnesses be. come worrfed, and such remarks a3 witnese being in the penit-ntiary should not be made, especially when there were some of the most Tespectadle people witnesses in the case, among whom Were Gen. Grant, Assistant Secretary Seward: and he could not see how it could be helped that witnesses shouid come here prepared tu avenge themselves. He de- plored it, and would stop it. It was alto- gether wrong in the witness to attack the counsel, and it must not be repeated. If the witness felt aggrieved, it was lis place to call upon the conneel out of court, or if he wns treated with any disrespect he conid cali upon the Court. Mr. Merrick said he deemed It to be dua to himeeif to say that the Court had mieappre- hended him. ‘The remark made by him #3 to witnesses being in the penitentiary was not intended to apply to General (rant aud Assistant Seczeiary Seward. Hw did notiatena to embrace all Lie witnesses. He had the highest respect for Generai Grant and Mr. Seward, and he tbonght i was perfectly well understood among the wit: ses as to whom that referred and to whom it did not refer. No sane person would for a moment suppose that whe intended to include General Grant, Assist. ant Secretary Seward, or any respectable wit- ness. Judge Fisher said he entered into the trial of this cae without knowing anything of the testimony; but this he did know that there ‘were certain rules laid down in the tex: books to discredit witnesses, which must be followed by the counsel. ‘Mr. Merrick said that the attention of the Court had been exiled to it by Mr. Bradley, who did it at his own instance. So far ashe 'r. M.) Was concerned he did not care, us the could not insult bim: but ne did think NgRity of the Court had been insulted. Judge Fisherdirected the counsel to proceed with the examination, and Deh. J. A. McMillan was then recalled, and theexAmingtion resnmed by Mr. Pierrepoint. | Witness rememberg that Surratt said at the he- ginning of the weekan which the assasination tock place he was in Montreal, and had ar+ x:véd there witbin a few days with despatches trom Richmond. He #1id they were imper- ‘tant despatches. He said he was there at the beginning of the week. He said he received a letter from John Wilkes Booth, dated New York, ordering him immediately to Washirg- ton that 1t had been found necessary to change Weir plans, 6nd to act promptly. He said he started iminediately, and at Elmira he tel- egraphed to Boeth in New York. Ananswer cnme back that Booth had already started tor Washington. He said that he arrived on his way back to Uauada at St. Albans one morn- lug atew days alter the assassination. The train was delaved there some time, and b4 took advantage of itto go into the village to ake bis breakfast. While sitting ut the table with several others, he saw there was much excitementamong thoseat the table. He asked hisneighdcr what was all the excitement about. His neigntor said don'tyou know Mr. Linco bas been kssassinated. The prisoner suid he replied “Why the story {s too good to be tru The man then handed him a newspxper con- taining gn account, and upox lovkiug in the paper be saw his own name among the assus- sins, that so unnerved him he aie no more breakfast. When going cut he heard a crowd of persons say Suzratt must be in St. Albane, as bis handkerchief bad been found on the street bearing his name. He put bis hand on bis pocket and found bis handkercbiet gone, and be then made bis way to Canaca as fast as possible. In Montreai he said he stopped at the house of Mr. Porterfield, the Coutederate fgent, Dut it was soon enspecied by dutecttves that he was there, and he had to lexve: he satd that one evening two carriages drove to Mr, Yortertield’s door, and be(Surratt) with an- otner dressed Hike him got in, one in each ¢ar- Fiage, and the two carriagés drove im opposite directions.
