We are indebted to Mr. Gladding of the Massachusetts, Adams & Co., Harnden & Co., and to the officers of the Cleopatra, for the despatch with which they forwarded the news to us. It is seen by the extracts below, that Rhode Island and the Providence Plantations are the scene of much rade commotion. \ eno chance now tor an escape for either party from violence and bloodshed. There must soon be a march to the grave, and the only hope is that as few as possible will join in the procession to eternity. All who have had it in their power have left the State to avoid the horrors of a civil war. Business has been suspended—banks closed—school houses, colleges and churches, turned into barrack reoms—all sorts of people made soldiers, sleeping on their arms every night, and indeed the whole State, containing eleven hundred square miles, is one great military camp, and the one hundred thousand inhabi- tants thereof form one big bivouac as the sun sinks into the western horizon every evening. With the foregoing we give the extracts. Read them, and prepare for an Extra Herald this morn- ing, containing highly important and bloody news from the seat of war.

A strong patrol was out. chusetts brought up 150 mon from Newport and Middle day morning. The Providence arrived in the ith 260 men from Newport and Bristol coun- ties, and some rived from the same counties by rnor, Captain tate of Rhode Patrols had set around Market Square and Coli street, which had been exceedingly crowded during the day. A number of suspicious looking men, strangers seen prowling through the streets, and some arrest: made, At three o'clock, the whole force in the city were order- euto muster, ‘fhe whole number on the Hill was about 1600, an from 200 to 300 were on duty in the city, or not ordered out. This was before the arrival of the Third and Fourth Brigades. Major General McNeill expressed him ghly sratified with the number and condition, and ally the character ofthe men. arrests of disorderly and suspected persons wers mate towards evening. ‘The cars arrived at about 9 o'clock, with the Third Bri. gale, Gea. Stedman. The Brigade was not formed pre vious to its arrival, the regiments having been taken inte ibe cars at different poivts. We are unable, therefore to give tho numberof men, but it was from 300 to 400. n accordance with the request of the Mayor, the citi- zeus have entered their names for the number of men whom they can accommodate with food and lodgings, or with lodgings only. Strong videttes” were posted upon the roads leading to the city and the approaches were well guarded. Several men, on their way to Chepachet, were arrested anu brought in, and one who had just arrived from ther also Drought in. Two wagous, | inten led for the insurgent camp, were taken.

The hill is about eighty feet high the position commands the Providence turnpike, for the whole range of the cannon. It is sepa- rated from a lower hill on the east by a sandy, roeky ra- vine, and from il higher hill on the west by a table land, which rises gradually from Acot ’s Hill to about the same height: We believe there is no water on the hill unless «well has beea dug; but there isa fine stream within two hyndred yards. Independent of any rein forcements received, or any desertions male yesterday imate the insurgent force at about 700 men, not all We are of opinion, however, that there are plea y of muskets it the men are willing to use them. Provi- sions are pleaty, the neighboring farms furnishing abun dance of live stock for the maurauding parties. u ition must also be plenty, as large quantitics sa stolen, They have from ten to twenty piece of artillery, some of good constructioa, but principally sh ion, indifferently mountel. genorally six but they may have one or two nines, perhaps a twelve-pounder. They have four large marquees, and they use a barn to quarter some a ia. ‘Dorr arrived Saturday morn- light. He made a furious speech to his mea, and avowed his determination upon victory or death. The lat st secounts from the insurgent camp, represent Dorr asperfectly te and reckless; about one hun. dred of his men will stand by him to the last, The others do not seem to be so infuriated. *Six boxes of Colt's repeatin, Fed by the cars yesterda know; six chambered rifles, arri heir destination not being they were taken possession of. It was ascertaine: that they were intended to equip a company for cost of the rifles is lefrayed by pri vate sabscription, and is another instance of the spirit ane liberality of our citizens. Ade bment, led by William P. Blodget, was sgnt out m toarrest eight of the insurgents who ha: threatened violence to the peaceable inhabitants, and had provide! themselves with arms, with the intention of marching to Chepachet. Seven of them were secured, and brought tothe city. One ofthem levelled his rifle at Col. Blodget, but it was wrested from his hands before hv had an opportunity to discharge it. A number of éther arrests were made during the day. An attempt was made by the insurgents to take some arms from a house in Foster. We have not the full par- tieulars, but we learn they fired upon the men in the house without injuring anyone. ‘The fire was returned, anc one of the insurgents wounded, it isthought fatally. The rest instantly fled. The whole number of troops inthe city yesterday war about 3000. This does not include a portion of the Fourth Brigade, from Kent county, which is ordered direct to Foster. A ye, force, conpeiaings the Third and Fourth Bri- gade, has been ordered to the north part of Foster, where tly will take up @ position between Chepachet and Con- necticut, in the rear of the insurgent army. Another bo- ing of the troops from Bristol, Warren, and B: rington, has been ordered to Greenville; they went as fa: as Fruit Hill last night.

Gibbs McNeil has been appointed Cominander in Chief of the forces of Rhode Island. Dr. Wayland has dismissed the studentsof Brown Uni- versity.

The steamboat Belle arrived here this morning from New York. The mail brought dispatches tor Col. Bank- head, commander of the United States forces in Newport It was very naturally surmised that these dispatches re- lated to the affairs of our State, and contained orders for Col. Bankhead to bring out the United Statestroops. We ‘understand that this rumor is not correct. ‘The latest intelligence from the insurgent camp, repre- sent the force at about 750 men armed, and perhaps 200 unarmed. Their artillery has probably been over esti- mated, bot in the number andthe calibre of their pleves Many of the men were in anything but a state of so! y Stephen 8.

Dear Sin:— r The enclosed letter was written on Saturday, but the person who was to take it did not wait. Since then things have altered considerable. We spent a dreadful night on Saturday, the report was that 1500 or 2000 troops were marching upon us from Proyi- dence, the effect of which was to leave us with about one hundred men on the hill. It rained in- cessantly all night, and Iwas on a scouting party with what boys we have here, six or nine miles tc- The day at length dawned, and wards Providence. all Sunday was full of reports and counter reports. I now tell you the plain truth—a truth which I dare not tell any one here. The Algerines are blocking up every road, anene martial law, and making preparations to bombard us from the surrounding ills. Their plan seems to be to hem us in with an immense force, and then contract the circle, and cut us off to aman. They, that is the whole of them, are the set of cowards lever met with, on which account we have to keep them in dark- ness in regard to their real situation. There are only a few New York boys here, and only three out of that few worth a ——. There are a few brave men here. They see how things stand, and have joined my company, and when the worst comes, which can’t be long, we are determined, as there is to be no mercy for me or for them, to show the cowardly craven wretches of Rhode Island what they might do, if they would. Iam just going with a part of my company to open a road which is blockaded by a party of Algerines, amongst whom there are said to be several United States troops The United States troops are now openly ougaged in the conflict. Yours, . Curracuer, Saturday afternoon. Dear Sir :— i i We have been to work incessantly since yester- day morning, in throwing up breastworks and dig- @ trenches around the hill on which we are en. amped. They are now pretty well completed, anc we have six pieces of artiliery anxiously gazing through the embrazures in quest of the ‘Al erines, who, we hear, every hour, are on the march to at tack us, and whose approach we wait with a great deal of impatience. We are out on scouting partie: continually looking forthem, and in case they don’t come pretty soon, we shall save them the trouble by going to meet them. We brought Governor Dori in this morning from Connecticut before daylight. We escorted him up in triumph to the camp, amid the sound of music and the roar of artillery. 1: was a glorious sight to me, to see a man who hac been driven from his native State, from his friends family and home, and outlawed by having a price set upon his head, for his devotion to the cause o! equal rights, proudly marching with his head erect, backed by hundreds of the very class he had made such sacrifices to elevate, and seeming to mutter as he marched, ** Now Mr. King come and take me.” De Wolf has come in, a devout penitent (at least ir po essions) this morning, saying his letter in the Providence Journal, wasall a “stall.” He earnest- ly requested the privilege of proving his sincerity by being permitted to fight for the cause he had re vonnced; a consultation of the officers was held ir the officers tent, the Governor presiding, for the pur- pose of deciding on his application. Several were for placing contidence in his statements and reinsta ting him, others for not having any thing to do wit! him. I propossd (after going in to the merits of th whole case) to take him in as drill seargeant, anc keep a sharp watch on him, which was unanimous- ly agreed to. Thave been ae to them in squads, in fact ali the time, and they begin to feel their degradation in its true light, and if we can judge from appearan- ces, they are determined to wade through seas o| blood, or shake off the yoke. ‘The position which Itake—which I have advocated, and which yo ean now look upon as the position of the Suffragr pe of R. L, isthat we don’t recognize any such ody as the defunct Charter Legislature ; that the auestion is whether the laws of R. I. uuder Gov Dorr and the people’s Constitution can be enforcer or not 1—whether it is the American soil, or the American people that are to vote and govern.

Enss.er at THE Park To-niGut.—Mr Simpson takes his benefit to-night at the Park, and we do hope that it will be a bumper—for well he de- servesit, and most probably needs it. Mr. Simpsor has been an unfortunate man, and his only consola- tion in the dreary difficulties that beset him is tha he has preserved his honor, always fulfilling his en- gagements, whenever he could by any possibility re- alise the means to do #0. His taking a benefit at this moment is the best evidence in his favor, for Mme Elssler, of her own accord, made a proffer of her services as a last mark of her esteem, and in proof of the honorable performance of all his obliga- tions, We repeat our hope that Mr. Simpson’s friends, comprising many of our most respectable citizens, vill rally enthusiastically about him to-night, anc give him solid tokens of their favor and sympa- thy.

THE GREAT CLOTH CASE. Tuip Day. United States Circuit Court, Before Judge Betts. packages of cloth.—Mr. Bureck: ‘Taylor's goods were ally consigned to order. The usage in the dis charge of a packet ship was from five to twenty days; i! goods were not permitted from a ship they would be sent tothe public store under a general order; that was the case usually with woollen goods; they would sometimes lay there a year, Jong enough to sendto England and get new invoices. Wool Abpea for the spring market usu- ally arrived late in the fall, sometimes early in the spring; those for the winter market would arrived during the summer. Hoy asked witness what ledto the discovery of Mr. Campbell’s fraud. _ Judge Berrs again stopped him, and told him the ques. tion was improper, Jesse was again in a quandary; he then asked witness whether Mr. Campbell was detected in defrauding the re- venue. The Junce again stop him, told him he must not put his question so, but ask what acts were done. Buercxea—We detected that false invoices had passed between Dayton & Campbell. Also, there wasa similar fraud in the case of Bottomly, fifteen packages by the Ros- coe; one package was entered at the e proper value; those cotries | examinadiyesterday of Mr. Taylor's; some were of acharacter to Dayton’s and some were not. Cross ezamined.- 1 examined Bottomly’s goods; claimed part of the profits of those . I never got any thing. I commenced a suit against Mr. Hoyt for my claim. He said Mr. Coe and Mr. Craig objected to it; the money was paid intocourt by advice of counsel. I addressed a note to Mr. Hoyt, requesting my share of the forfeiture, and the next day he dismissed me from office. I’ then withdrew the suit, rather than lose my situation, and Mr. Hoyt, on ' that considera reinstated | me. On goods purchased in the North of England, it was al- the practice to allow a discount for mea. all the time I have been in the Custom House— more than 17 years—until the proclamation of the late Collector to the contrary; can’t say When that rule was changed. On some few goods from some part of England, a discount wasnot allowed. Although Mr. Hoyt was in- demnified, and had the Jetters of Mr. Craig, and Mr. Cov, he dismissed me from office when | made theclaim. ‘To Hovt—I was not reinstated until I sent you a letter withdrawing my elaim, The letters which passed between us you know were destroyed, and then I was reinstated. Jxssx Horr then offered to introduce some entries of Abel Shaw’s, made in 1835. Mr Loap submitted to his Honor, Judge Betts, that Mr. Hoyt’s course in the present case was a ‘murder- ous waste of time—he might with the same propriety go back for 50 years. The Jenae finally admitted the entries. Mr. Lonv—He must prove the entries. Jupar Berts—Certainly. JIrsse, Hovr—Some were sworn to before Mr. Campbell —and some of the parties are dead they were sworn to be- fore. So I shall have to send out for a witness, since they object. Jesse Hovt then offered to introduce 26 invoices from Abel Shaw, to John Taylor, Jr., dated in 1883 and 1899. Mr. Miter insisted on Mr. Hoyt’s proving their au- thenticity. Mr. Hovt—Mr. Davis ? No answer. Another tedious pause. : Mr. Hovt—It’s quite difficult to keep witnesses in Court, sir. Mr. Davis was found. Gronar Dav mined.—These invoices were pre- sented tome. Ican’ttellby whom unless I saw the en- tries. (Others shown to him.) All the invoices were presented to me at the time of the entry. Some for part of the goods, some for the entire. (Other invoices shown.) Movt—Are all those inyoices in writing 7 Mitex asked if they could prove hand writing by @ comparison ? f Mr, Davis said that he did not know any thing about the hand writiag. Mr. Hovr said something that was unintelligible. Judge Betts said that would be assuming a great deal. He thought it admissible to let the witness say ifthe hand writing of all the invoices was similar. Mr. Davis thought all these inveices were presented to him by John Taylor, with the exception of some pre- sented to me by Mr. Bradbury. Can't say how many of them. Can only give a mere opinion as to the similarity of the hand writing. They all look alike—no ! here’s one hatisn’talike. Ofcourse! can’t speak with any certain- Only as to my impression, (Twa more’ invoices were shown.) Ishould think these were the same. Judge Berts—You'd better wait, Mr. Hoyt, and prove them, before you ask any questions about them. Davis—Should think these were presented by John Taylor ; only judge by seeing the name on the back. They were presented atthe time of the entry—can’t say by whom. ‘There are no such strong characteristics in these to make me think them the same hand-writing. Hovt—What is your belief? Davis—Why I've no belief about it‘ sir, except a very vague and indefinite one. The hand ing does not re- emble; the figures are somewhat similar. 1 believe, put- ting all the circumstances together, that they did emanate trom different sources. Hoyt—Who do they purport to come from? Objected to. Judge Betts—We had better not waste so much time in vague evidence like this. Hoyr—For want of better proof, we give the best we can. Judge Betrs.—Yes, sir, but ‘this is no evidence at all. The witness says he cannot decide positively an g about the handwriting. There has been a great deal ot sime expended, and we had better go at once into the pro- per details of the case. Mr. Ocpew examined—Was in the Custom House from 1831 to 1838 ; can’t say positively if the invoices of the Yorkshire importers were retained or not. Cross-examined.—Don’t think there was any difference in retaining the invoice of one importer more than others. Hovt.—Yes ; but who did those importers generally make their entries before, sir? Oovex.—That’s a question I can't answer, sir. There were several in the office before whom it was done. Hovt.—Yes, but who in particular? Oapex.—I do not know of any one. Hovt—That’s all, si Micer—That's all, Another long pause. Judge Brrts—Come, gentlemen, do get on with the case. Hovt—Another witness has “ just etepped out.” Mr. Piume called—Went into the Custom House in May Last ai gi the amount of part of the invoices of John ‘aylor. Mr. Hoyt then offered a quantity of irrevelent evidence, and consumed the time of the court and jury with much talking. Judge Betts said, he must rule out such evidence—it was not admissable according to law. Hovr then made several other statements of a tedious character. Judge Betts very drily remarked, “I supposed by vour opening, sir, that you intended in some way to con- rect Mr. Blackburn with Mr. Taylor's importations.—I'm it done.” the same hand . Gray, examined. Jesse Hovt asked him the same questions that he had asked of Mr. Plu . ‘In what way does that differ from the t all. missed without giving any testimony. MEAD examined—Is a tailor in this city.— Seen in the habit of importing cloths and cassimeres for everal times. These papers are an account of goods I pee The marks are Diamond B. F., and Diamond . [presume the prices here marked are what we made, Cross-examined—Cannot that this account of prices isthe same that we made at that time; did not look atthe paper made at that time to see if the prices put down ‘here were the same that we gave; don’t know in whose handwriting the paper is; cannot say that these orices; have no knowledge of the prices at whic! praised those goods. Mr. Horrmaw here came to the ance of Mr. Hoyt ina very ingenious manner, in order to get the appraise- ment prices introduced in evidence; and witness then swore that these prices were put down on that paper at e he made the valuation; he had no doubt of it. Cannot you let Mr. Hoyt manage his own case Horrmax—Havn't I let him manage it long enough to satisfy you? (Here there s considerable laughter, even among the jury, and the Judge was forced to smile. Cross-eramined by Miturn.—Don't think the prices were carried out at that time; dou’t know positively that his is the same paper. Did not look at it after the ap- vraisement was over, to see if the prices corresponded. The Jones thought the rope might be referred to in or- ter that witness might say what were the prices put upon he goods at the time they were appraised. Miuuer objected, and read the opinion of Judge Story on this subject in the case of Wood, and demanded that Mr. Hoyt should now show that there had been a public ap- praiser to value these goods. Mr. Horrmax made a very ingenious argument in favor of admitting the testimony. Mr. Lonp seplied in a very able manner, basing his arguments upon the strict law of the subject ; referred to the statute regulating the appraisement and forfeiture of goods falsely invoiced. He said that the Collector was bound to have the goods appraised by a regularly appoint iser. Under the acts at present in ot be forfeited. We should live , if a Collector, prowling about with the could seize any thing and every thing in might choose to say was entitled to for- eiture, and to throw on one side the regular Government appraiser and his opinion on the subject." But more than is, the Co Hector here ee, had made the forfeiting al- legation here that they had been regularly appraised by a government appraiser, according to the acts of Congress, so made and provided, and found to be falsely imvoiced He — prove that allegation, or his case must fall to the ground. Mr. HorrMax replied, and referred to the 3d section of the act of 1930—the act sypeinteng the appraisers, and prescribing their duties. He contended that the goods heing seized, no matter how irregularly, and being in Court, the claim of the United States could not ve affected ¥ any informality of the Collector. He read the clause of the act of 1799, relative to the appraisement of goods by two merchants, which would "juatlty Mr. Hoytin his pre- sent case, unless it was repealed. Mr. Lop replied that the two allegations in the infor. mation under which the goods were songht to be confisea- ted, were laid under the acts of 1832 and 1830, and under the act of 1799, on the ground ¢! tion were found to be falsely invoic pond with the entry, The information, it should be observed, was not drawn by Mr. Hoffman, who disclaims all connection with the case, except to assiat Jesse Hoyt in the legal points of the nas the Information was drawn hy the. Rev. Benj. F Butler, who now are ashamed to defend the cause. A zee Court decided to admit the valuation by Wood- nead. Mr. Lonb excepted to it on two grounds: first, that the statute requires it, and, secondly the ings. Mr. Woopnean cross-eramined— ¢ valuation of pack: 143, diamond B. F., was £196 10s. 64., without the jes ; package 144 was £187 168., with the c! yes, One and'a half per cent was the rate of the charges. Mr. Hoyt and Mr, Miller here had a regular flare up, and Judge Betts had to compel them to stop. Somethin; a challenge passed afterwards from Hoyt to Miller, Mr. Woopnzap then went on to read the following prices of the packages which be valued — Diamonp, B. F. Package, No. 145 £192 10 146 186 93 a7 m4 99 140 173 19 149 166 19 160 165 17 6 Diamonn T.

Mr. Konusanr examined.—Been clerk in the appraiser's store 6 years ; I extended the prices in the valuation of these goods here shown, and the additions. Cross-ezaminod.—I copied this valuation from a memo- randum made in pencil marks at the time ; can’t say who made the pencil marks; was not present at the examina- tion of the goods ; did not copy this paper at the time the valuation was made ; but afterwards, Mr. Mituwr then moved that the testimony of Mr. Woodhvad as it rested on that paper as a refresher of his memory, should bestricken out. Witness examined by Hovt.—Don’t know where the original paper is that I made this copy from ; don’t know in Whose hand writing it was. By the Jonce.—That paper which I copied was not signed. Judge Betts to Horr.—This will go far to take away the foundation on which Mr. Woodhead,s testimony rest- ed. He swore that this was the original paper on which the prices were put down at the time of the valuation, and that he then signed it.

Juxe 28.—Manpamus.—This being the day designated for the argument in relation tothe Sixth Ward election, and the election of Clerksto the two Boards, an immense number of persons assembled at an early hour to witness the pro lings. Messrs. Charles O’Conner, A. L, Jordan, and P. A. Cowdrey, appeared as counsel on behalf of the Mayor, while the opposite side was represented by its for- mer advocates, Messrs. Fuote, Wood, and Graham. There are three causes—that of Messrs. Heath and Roome, asses- sors ; with those of Joseph R. Taylor and Edward Wil- liams, clerks. They are all to be blended in one argu- ment, and the same decision given the whole. The man- damus, we need not gay, has been issued requiring the Mayor to show cause Why he does not administer the oath to those gentlemen as officers duly elected. But two coun: sel are to be heard on aside. Messrs. O'Conner and Jor- dan will address the Court on the part of the Mayor, and Messrs. Foote and Wood tor the relators. After some lit- tle preliminary matter, the case was opened on the part of plaintiff in error. Mr. O’Connon made a statement of the circumstance: attending the mandamusthus far. The official order fo: the late election, the aftidavits relating to the attack by 5. mob on the Sixth Ward Hotel, where the first district pol was held, whilst the canvassers were counting the tickets, their flight from the room and subsequent return in abou half an hour, when they found (as a majority of the in- spectors testified) some of the tickets lying on the floor and some on the table, the refusal of the Mayor’to swea’ inthe whig officers of the Sixth Ward claiming to bi elected, on the ground of no return having been made tc him—the counter declaration that the tickets had not been disturbed during the absence of the inspectors, but that the whole were taken by them to the Mayor’s office anc counted—also that the whig officers had elected by the other districts of the ward, the result of which coul: not have been changed by the vote of the first distri were read by Mr, O’Connor—also thy proceedings relati to the election of Mr. Taylor as clerk, by the whi; bersof the Board of Aldermen, Mr. Crolius havihg as- sumed the chair rendered vacant by the death of Alder. man O'Neil, which assumption, Mr. O'Connor said, w countenanced by the other eight members then present. In the other Board, relative to another {of the complain ants, however, said Mr. O'Connor, the case was different Mr. Shaler held possession of his seat. Mr. Atwill claim- ed it, but the Mayor would not sweer him in, althoug) he was sworn by the Recorder, both before and after th meeting of the Board. Mr. Crolius was not sworn, ever by the Recorder, after the meeting of the Board. Mr O'Conner said the members of the Supreme Cour had hastily. rendered judgment, without having had tim: to review the points of law in the case, the Sabbath onl; intervening between the argument and their decision Mr. O'Conner then read the opinion delivered by the Su preme Court on giving Judgment, and proceeded jn his re marks. He contended that the Mayor had noright to loo! behind the return of the inspectors, nor did he think that the Supreme Court had any more ett adjudicate upor the subject than Mr. Morris had. e law requires the: the inspectors shall make a return as to the persons hav- ing the Pepe number of votes. In this case the ball boxes had been disturbed, and the officers alone authoriz- ed by law to do so, had officially stated that from cog causes they were ‘unable to make such return. Was i for the ministerial ,officer (the Mayor) to interfere, anc himself make out a return contradicting their declaration The mandamus might have been issued against thi inspectors, requiring them to show cause, but in- stead of that a third party was brought up, totally unacquainted with the circumstances, and calle: upon to become the principal, the real parties in the case having nothing to say in relation to it ‘The mandamus is a sacred instrument, which should b rarely touched, and jnever when redress could be had by any other mode pointed out by law. In relation to the assessors, the Common Council is authorised to act; and as to the Alderman and Assistant, each Board in itself ha: wer to examine into the correctness of the return. This power, too, —, vested in them, and, therefore. the Supreme Court had no right to interfere. Had th: Common Council refused to decide upon the subject, ther the action of the Supreme Court might have been in voked, but with the mode of proceeding, and the result the Supreme Court would have had nothing todo. Th: members ofthe Common Council act asc sort of jury, a: the members of this Court do, and to them the decision in such cases hasbeen confided. As to Alderman Crolius the returns did not show him to be elected, and he had ne right to intrude himself without the legal certificate being first obtained. If he thought himself wronged, redress was open to him in a proper way. Is it right, said Mr. O’C., that men who have no return should seek to oust the members legally in possession, or intrude so as to prevent a new election ? If men can thus come in withou' the form of law, it will be a premium for themselves o1 friends to break the ballot boxes, and there may be no end to the number who will claim, by threats and violence. the disputed seats. In regard to the clerk, (Mr. Taylor, Mr. Crolius, and the eight Aldermen who acted with him did not constitute the Borrd of Aldermen, and, therefore, had no right to elect him, nor had the Recorder any au- thority to administer the oath of office. The Mayor, on whom the authority devolves, was present, and no othe: person had aright to act. In respect to Mr. Williams the other relator, Mr. Atwell, and the eight member: acting with him, did not form the Board of Assistants, and therefore his election was also illegal. Mr. Shale continued Alderman de jure until a successor was duly sworn and admitted in his place; and Mr. Atwell coul? not be the Assistant Alderman de facto, whilst Mr. Sha- ler remained in office. These are merely the leading points in the case. They were urged by Mr. O'Conner with great force and ability, and evidently made censiderable impression upon the minds of the court and autlitory. Mr. Foote will address the court this morning on the other side. His principal poi: re, that none of the votes being lost, the Mayor had sufficient prima facie evidence to enable him to administer the oath, &c.
