The consummation of The Contested Child Case. Severn! weeks ago Mr. F. A. Aiken filed 3 petition in the Orphans’ Court for the guardian~ ship of the child Cora Anna Garish, otherwise Aiken, (the little girl who, it will be recol- 1 cted, was before Judge Fisher several weeks habeas and was piaced of Rev. ‘alter,) and the Jourt testimony to be taken. Accord. terday. Mr. R. Rose CG mowhes of the child (who is now at the Bouse of the Good Shepherd, in ) and Rev. J. A. Walter, and Mr. Aiken in bis own be- halt, Mr, Brent, bis counsel, being otherwise ens Cir Aiken was sworn amd testified that he is a resident of the city and Mistrict. In 1363, he became acquainted with Ellen McCall, who says that sheis the mother of the child concern- ing whom there is this controversy. The child was then about eighteen months old. By per. mission of Ellen McCall (at that time, Feb- ruary, 1865, or within a short time after wards) he carried the child home; kept her during the A short time afier wok her home again; he was very much pleased with the child and made a proposition to legal- ly adopt her, to provide for her sustenance and support and educate her. The second time she was carried to her mother—it being a cold day—some five or seven yards of the finest white flannel was wrapped about the child and presented to her to be made into use- ful articles of clothing. The child for two or three weeks was frequently carried from the — of — to bape rere unti er permission be Kept her altogeth- er with the single exception of occasionally taking her to see the said McCall. It continued until about Christmas, '66, at which time Ellen McCall was living on 11th street, No. 35. One day, about that time, in witness’ absence, Ellen McCall came to his house, where he was then living, (Taylor's, corner of 3d and C sts.,) ina » ACCOM by & woman named haw, and took the child away, and placed it im the care ef acolored woman living on 7th st., between and P, where the ciid remained four or perbaps five weeks. As soon as he as- eertained where the child was, he constantly visited her, carrying such things in the way of food and clothes as he thought she might need. Previous to finding her, nearly all the child's clothes had been sent to Ellen McCall's. He Was anxious to agam get possession of the deeply attached to it, and took ‘great to find out where she (the child) was; finally, after a visit to Ellen Mc. Call, at her honse on 1th street, she consented that he should again have the child. After this she came to witness’ office, in the Intelli- gencer Building, and there, ina more formal and distinct manner, gave him the child, pro- mrt on her word of honor, that she would never again take it away: witness urged her at that time and repeatedly afterwards ee Mage to the court and ave it legally adopted; to this she objected but always assured him that she would never repent or give canse for the trouble that he had had when child was taken a: first, and always said that in case she should die was Do one to claim the child except witness. When he took the child the second time he promised Ellen Meall that he would oce sionally take the child to see her, and from that time up to the 26th of July, 156°, he did so take the child to see heron an rage of one in three wecks, with the exception of the time in- tervening between the last and mext to the iast visit. Durmg all this time, from the first taking of the child to July 26th, 1#s, Elien Mc- Call, never by word or look, or any manner in the slightest degree, conveyed to bim or any one else so far as his knowlege that she either had the reason or dis position to find any fault with his cai attention, support and general interest in the cbild. On contrary, she very frequently, and in the warmest terms of approbation, ex- pirssed to witness her thazks and her gratiinde for the kindness and affection constantly dis- charged in his care of the child. During all this time, witness bore all of the expenses inci- deat to rearing the child—such as board, nearly all Ber clothmg, washing, physician's bills, &c., omitting hardly a day during all this time to purchase for the child some luxury or com- fort—amounting in the to fully twelve but more probably fourteen hundred and fitty dollars. luring all this time the said Me@ail sent to the child asa present $3) (for im @ note addressed to Mrs. o— m asked to withdraw these words, objected}—it my information is correct. Ina subsequent conversation with her in relation to the present of the 850 to the child. she (McCall) stated that it was for the use of tbe child. Om two occasions witness had bor- oney from her—at one time $5 and another $i0—this G is the tots! amount ot money ever passed into his possession trom ter, She has’ atso from tine to time made the child presents, including new dresses and material for new oues; also some second-hand articles, to be worked up forthe child. Wit- ness has been to the expense of all of the child's el e. uch as shoes, stockings, under cloth- pi gage cowl oness — one ex- ception, number of dresses, gloves, dc. McCall bas also given her during the time ready made and maternal for some tive or six dresses. ‘The child has been most abundantly supplied with everything for her personal comfort and her physical welfare. In latter part of February or first of March last ior special reasons personal to Ellea M. and to what was considered by EWen McC ull and witness for the best interests of the child, it was agreed between them that he should not take the child again te see her so long as she was living as she then did. It was farther agreed, however, that arrangements should he made by which she might occasionally see her it she desired to outside of the house in which sbewas then living. Very soon atter this the child was taxen sick with the whooping cong: which lasted her up to June. Dr. Verdi a! tended her up toJune. Witness occasionally called during the time on Miss McCall to teil witness went to New York city, a day or two sooner than had anticipated going, or an intention would fulfilled to let Cora see Miss McCall be- fore going, On bis return trom New York about July 16th, he waited until the following Wednesday and addressed Miss McCall a note stating that if it was fair he would be at the Capitol grounds with the child where she could see her if she desived. To this he received a note in reply, stating in substance that circum. stances were such that she could not go out,but begged him to take the child to see her that evening or any evening dur! the week On Sunday evening, July 26th, the was taken to see Miss McCall and while ‘there was surrep- Uutously taken from his sight and was not seen by him after that until produced in Court, compelled by writ of habeas corpus. This is the ee oe of his testimony, reserving to bimself the right hereatter to make any adq ditions or alterations proper to be made. Mr. Perry objected to the whole of the above testimony, om the ground that the greater part of it was made from a written statement, not a memorandum of dates. He objected aiso to those parts of the aforesaid testimony in which the contents of written instruments are given in evidence, said instruments not being pro- duced or satisfactorily accounted tor. Also to SBY Feser vation ou the part of the Witaess of Tight to comtinue this testimony or to testify anew in this case, ‘Mr. Aiken asked to add that no portion of the above testimony, either in dates or words, 1s | contained im any written memorandum he has with bim. | Crows-examined by Mr. Perry:—Witness ex- amined a number of Ivtiers (same as were pro- duced before Judge Fiber) sed acknowledged them to be his: also, one he thought was bis | wife's.

Witness, without any disposition to evade the question, refused to answer whether Be had carnal connection with Elia M. First learned ot the child at Mrs. Somerville’, on his first visit from McUall, asked her for ti fe eeeny Stone it; she never consented to bis ly adopting it on!y so faras, in the pres- ence of witnesses, giving the child to him vol- untarily, with the solemn promise uever to take it Away except by mutual consent. This romise was made in his office in the ntelligencer in the presence pitt, Esq. and others. At the time the child was returned trom the colored —— aby, Elle she ex, undest regret at havin, taken the child away, was sorry and believ she, was acting under bad influences at the tume, and said she would never take the child away again without matual consent. He may bave said the house was an unsuitable one in which to bring up the child, and knew that he ‘old McCall that he would do all for the chitd’s legal hild with. Centre Market To-day.

Joseph Wil- liams, J. W. Grain, and Parker Nadal were appointed a committee to prepare transparen- cies and banners for the occasion. Addresses were then made by Messrs. L. G. Hine, F. A. Boswell, and Abraham Dyson and Jas. Bowen, colored—the latter of whom urged the colored men toaid those who were endeavoring to se- cure to them their rights. Some ms, he said, charged the whole race with a desire to amalgamate with the white people, but this was not the case; tor what would be the result! The white men and women ‘took of all na- tions—the Malay, Turk, Indian, &c, and, necessarily, if amalgamation was practiced, they would get democratic blood in them, which would course through their veins, and soon some of them would have democratic children, and he would not tolerate such proceedings as that in the colored race, by any means.
