Witness did not tell the postmaster about the matter, nor any one about the 0: Memtioned the maiter first last Satu night to his wife; had been reading in papers the testimony of Mr. Lverist about putting letters in a letter-box, aud recoil ted he had given Joyce just such jetter, ruminated over the matter awhile; then told his wife. The nextday (Sunday) a. going off duty, went to the Lindell Hotel; saw Babcock; told him the circumstaaces, and Babcock sent him to Judge Porter, to wiom be repeated his story. He gave full details of the matter to no one but Storrs and Porter outside of bis own family. No one had been to seo him about it before he went to the Lindell Hotel. He consulted with no one but his wife. He repeated the addresses of the letters given to Joyce as Gen. 0. E. Babcock aad Col. W. 0. Avery. He would bot admit that be had twiked about the matter anybody except some letter carriers at the post office to-day. Col. Dyer pressed him very hard, bat fe Would not acknowledge tual he haa any intercourse Or conversation with any other than mentioned above. Witness then went into @ long account of his various occupa- tions since he had lived in the city, bat gave nothing more bearing on the case.| it is understood the prosecution will offer natal in rebuttal of this evidence to- day. Mr. Storrs then asked for THE DEPOSITION OF THE PRSSIDENT, Which was produced by the clerk, aad it was read by Judge Porter. As several objections bad been made lo questions and auswers, Judge Dillon, during Lhe noon recess, looked itover and marked the objections overruled aud s\ ed, leaving the deposition, how- ever, it is said, very nearly in Lhe same form it was originally. The deposition of the President gives tes- timony as to how long be had known Gea. Babcock; in what capacity the latter had served with him; bis general duties at the White House, and the efficiency aud faith- fulness with which he discharged his daties; his hitherto good reputation aad general ex- cellent character. The following are some of the more impor- tant interrogations lo which the Presileat deposed. First, the question asto the suo- cessor of Coliector Ford, of 8t. Louis, was under inquiry.
