Livexroon Corton Manxer.— Thursday Sept. 22.—To- day’s demand for Cotton has been moderate, and amount to only 2900 bags, which consists of various de- scriptions, and have been taken entirely by the trade. Pri- ces are barely supported. Farvar, Se; 3.—The business done in the Cotton mar- ket this week has been to a very limited extent, the sales per cwt lower today, This isa culators have been very supine, their purchasers only amounting to 200 bales of American, and to exporters there have only been sold 640 American and 200 Surat. The prrheun of the trade are considerably below the week consumption, owing chiefly to their having been a ra- ther discouraging market for Yarn and Goods last ‘Tues- day, at Manchester, both as regards demand and price. Holders of Cotton have offered pretty freely, but prices are much the same as on Friday last, witn the exception of the better qualities of American, which have in some instan- ces been sold at a decline of fd per Ib. About 1600 bags of Sea Island and Stained, and 150 West Tadia, have been declared for public sale next Friday, ‘The import of the week amounts to 15,457 bags. To-day sales of Cotton amount to only about 2000 bags, thedemand having been limited, owing to the confusion occasioned by the fire. It is understood that at least 45,- 000 bales of Cotton have been destroyed. bs e duty on and Flour having again further advanced, is now at the highest point preseribed by the existing Corn Act, viz., 58 per quarter and 38 per barrel, respect- the Lord Lieutenant having summarily interdicted the performance of a new play, at the Abbey street theatre, entitled ‘‘ Lord Edward,” after a very cur- sory perusal. It appears that Mr. George Grey, late of the Liverpool theatre, was the author, and that the piece had been prepared for his benefit. He waited upon the secretary requesting that his drama might be read by an officer of the governm the confidence that it would be tound perfectly harmless, and in the hope that the severe sentence against it might be modified. Not being suc in obtaining An examination of his work, he a tor leave to read it publicly, assuring Lord that the drama was entirel e from any danger- ous or exciting political allusions, the tendency throughout pertectly loyal, and, to the best of his humble abilities, he had endeavored to point out the misery arising in all cases from disobedience and resistance to the laws. Thegoverament, how- ever, declined to give its sanction to the proposal. Mr. Gray appears to have been very harshly treated. At the New Strand theatre, on Monday night, an original and amusing trifle by Mark Lemon, author of “the Ladt dub,” &c., was,produced, entitled “The Silver Thimble; or, Light and Shade,” and met with complete success. An “ original comedy,” or, in more correct. par- lance, a new farce, in three acts, entitled “ Alma Mater; or, a Cure tor Coquettea,” by the author of “London Assurance,” was, on Monday night, pro- duced at the Haymarket Theatre, and with suc- cess. As little us possible of serious plan was ven- tured upon in this novelty; its action is, from first to last, a piece of rolicking extravagance, sustained by a dialogue seldom trespassing upon the finer qua- lity of wit, but disporting unremittingly in common- places of fun. A novelty of slight but agreeable interest, called “*The Pledge of Love; or, a Sister’s Sacrifice,” was produced at the Surrey Theatre on Monday. Drury Lane opens with an efficient company on Saturday se’nnight, the Ist of October, with “* As You Like it.” A _new vaudeville comeay, in which it is understood Mudame Vestris and Mr. Charles Matthews will appear, to be entitled “ Follies of a a Night,” is in rehearsal, and will be produced the week after next. The Adelphi Theatre opens on the 29th inst. Mrs. Yates will re-appear shortly after the commence- ment of the season. Rossini’s opera of “Semiramide” is in daily re- hearsal at Covent Garden, the part ef the heroine by Miss A. Kemble, and adapted to the stage by M. Benedict, will be the next novelty brought forward. Miss Kemble sang at a concert at Bopha on Monday evening, and returned to town on Tuesday, to play Norma the same evening at Covent Garden. France. The Paris journals of Sunday are filled to the ex- clusion of all other articles of comment with re- marks on the treaty of the right of search between Great Britax and the United States. Most of them find in that part of the document relating to the suppression of the slave trade additional mo- ively : upon foreign wheat also, it is raised to 185, on oats to 88 per quarter, and on flour to 10s 10d per barrel, being a virtual prohibition of their release for home consump: tior ‘The general imports of the past three days are extreme- ly light ; notwithstanding, we have continued to experi ence a heavy sale for all articles of the trase in the inter- val from Tuesday last, though at no perceptible differ- ence from the currency of that day.

Maxcnusten, Sept. 26.—There is nothing new in the aspect of affairs in this town or neighborhood, the power loom weavers being still gradually returning to work, un- able longer to stand out, and the turn-out may be said to be atan end. In Bolton, however, matters are still un- settled, and at least 1,400 hands are out. Stare or Taape.—Recnpate, Monday.—We have had a very brisk demand for flannels to-day, and pieces have deen eagerly bought up; but the manufacturers have not yet becn able to obtain a decided advance in price. ‘Ti wool market continu been for some Mondays pi ling to sell atformerprices, and the manufacturers buy very sparingly. Hutu.—A few weeks ago we gave an account of the state of trade in this town, and we regret to say that our subsequent investigations do not present any more pro- mising result. ‘The grocers and tea dealers complam of a falling off of full halfof their usual business, to say noth- ing ot the diminished profits on every article, in conse- quence ofthe great competijion prevailing. The drapers, Both woollen nd linen, complain of a dination in thelr weekly returns of £50, some ofthem of £200. We know instances of working men with families, who have been compelled to do without scarcely any food for weeks to- gether; and some of the best hands among the shoemakers are thankful to take mending, or what is called cobbling, a sort of work which they would have scorntully rejected under other circumstances. The tailors are not have em. ployed, and many of them are glad to go out by the day to private houses. ‘Three out of four of the ship.carpen- ters, sail-makers, &c., may be said to be out of empley. In addition to ail this, we know instances of gentlemen of property reducing their expenditure to meet the income tax, by ‘discharging their servants, selling their horses, dogs, &c., alarmed at the aspect of aflairs. The shipping interest is well known to be greatly depressed, our docks being filled with vessels laid up in ordinary. Pants, Sept. 22.—The market has been very flat, and business very limited. For the Account the Three per Cents opened at $0’, 20c, declined to 80f. 10c., and closed at 80f. 15c. The Five per Cents trom 119f.95 ., fell to 1131 loc., and closed at 11Sf. 90¢., both stocks are thus 10c. lower. For Money, the Three per Cents are unaltered ; and the Five per Cents 5c lower. Bank of France Shares have declined 7f50c. Luffitte Bank shares unaltered. Antwerp, Sept. 20.—Cotton—We cannot quote a single transaction of note, and pricesare the same. About 1,600 bales American, and 10# bales St. Domingo, have arrived this week, Rice is still in demand, both for home consumption and tives for resistance on the part of France to any treaty on the same subject. The Paris papers of Monday continue to com- ment on the treaty concluded between England and the United States. ° Spain. Our accounts from Madrid are of the 1th Sept. They contain, however, no intelligence of interest. There was notrath in the reported retreat of M. Calatrava, the Minister of Finance who continued ro enjoy the confidence of the Regent. M.

At one time his Majesty was reported to have contracted a morganatie marriage. This report was then contradicted, and King Ernest was said to have shown decided symptoms of insanity. Then, again, these reportssubsided into the statement that his Majesty was confined to his bed in Dusseldorf, by acommon attack of illness. x zi Business here is still in an unsatisfactory position. There is no employment for ships, and their owners must be suffering serious losses. The importations of sugar and coffee are understood to be leaving no pro- fit, and in some cases to be still occasioning losses, though the low prices for these articles are forcing a rather improving demand. The German export trade is wretched in the extreme; and itis almost impossible to name an article upon which a loss is not occasioned by its shipment from hence. Doubt- export; 1,400 tierces Carolina have been sold at 12}f to 124f ; 400 bags Bengal, 8}f to 9}f; and 600 bags Batavia, Sif to Lf, at County Court, Judge Ulshoeffer, first Sudge, in the Chair. Gcr. 18.—The Court met, pursuant to adjournment, in relation tothe charges preferred against certain special Justices, (Messrs. Matsell, Stevens and Parker.) for dis. charging convicts at Blackwell’s Island, and causing them to be brought into the city to vote at the Charter election. Messrs. Matthew L. Patterson and Chas. O’Con- ner appeared as counsel for the prosecution, and Messrs. Lord, Price and Brady, for the defence. Mr. Patrenson stated that a request had been made by the counsel on the other side for a particular set of charges, including corrupt intention, and of conspiring with others unlawfully to operate upon elections, &c., which had been furnished. He had notstated which individual should be placed on trial first, he leaving that to the de- cision of the Court. Mr. Lorn, on behalf of the accused, demurred to the charges, they being, he stated, entirely new. He desired ‘him to examine into them. “He also ob- jected to their being received, unless upon affidavit. The charges now amount to fifteen instead of three, and im- plicate four of the Aldermen. He had only received them yesterday. Judge Ussnorvren remarked that the order had been for four days notice to be given the accused, and if they insist upon it, further time must be allowed. Mr. O’Consen stated that he mentioned to his coll e that the notice as to details would be received as it been. The gentlemen, it is true, could demand further time if they wished, but notive of the main charges had been given as directed by the Court. Mr. Lor rep! He contended that the Court should less the excitement which existed during the past few years in the corn trade has contributed in a great degree to the present dullness. The heavy failures which have occurred have suspendid credit: and numbers of houses throughout Germany, who have contrived for years to prop themselves up b eredits, finding those props withdrawn, have sank Ehlers’ and Feuerhaerd of this city, who sus- pended payment in March last, have been this day declared bankrupts, and an official list of their cre- ditors is in circulation. The amount of their liabi- lities is about £70,000, and the assets are stated to be £600, barely sufficient to pay the costs of the commission. This house, at the period of their sus- pension, addressed a circular to their correspon- dents in Great(Britain, announcing the suspension as temporary—that they had sufficient to pay every body in full, besides retaining a handsome surplus for themselves. As usual, John Bull will be the chief sufferer, and it 1s but meet that he should pay for the credulity and weakness with which he lends his hard funds to any person, es- pecially if a foreigner, who has the effrontery to make bold assertions and tojtalk big. The number and magnitude of the failures which have occurred in Hamburg fand! Altona, during the past twelve months, aud the miserable amount of dividend to be expected in each ease (for up to the present mo ment not one of the estates referred to has paid one shilling) is a subject of great concern to the prudent and respectable merchants of this city The export of cattle from hence to Great Britain is still goiag on upon a small scale, and although it 1s said not to be attended with profit at present, lu tle deubt exists that it is a branch of trade which will increase, and which: must eventually effer ad- vantages to the parties who embark in it Markets, Lowpow Mowe Manxer, “Sept. 24—There has been some demand for money to-day on the Stock Exchange, as much as 3 percent, having been given for short loans.

The pernicious effect of the fluctuating scale of duties on Begs eee thet the Engl sh farmer will be clearly understood from the subjoined table of the quantities en tered for home consumption in the month of September, daring each of the years 1988 to 1842, inclusive. In those years 12,071,980 quarters have been so entered, and 7,609,- 623 qrs. thereof were entered in the month of September, as follows, (taken from the official returns) : Ang.26, 1542, 12,071,980 No English farmer of common sense can fail to see how 7,600,628 strongly the above table establishes the injurious opera- tion o: the “sliding scale” on his pocket, and that his great object should, therefore, be to assist with his utmost strength in getting Parliament to agree to « fixed duty. The farmers must ethatthey have beon swamped every year, as we wently observed before, at the very nick of harvest, oy the entry of large quantities of foreign growth, atthe time when they find it necessary to tispose of their crop.

He wished to read the charges to the Court. Judge Unsnorrren said it was unnecessary todo s0 Ww. Mr. Loan said he believed ifthe Court allowed them to be read they would not permit them to be received. Judge Inckauam remarked that it waa necessary serve a copy upon each of the members, so that they cou proceed understandingly. Considerable conversation then occurred between Mr. Lord and Judge I., and the latter moved to adjourn to next week. The Mavon remarked that charges should not been- tertained by this Court against any person, until they had been properly verified. {t was no excuse that such had been done once before. The legal course is that the charge must be in proper form before a party can be toanswer it. ‘The affair has assumed 9 new ap, acharge having been made against two of the members of this Court (Messrs. Purdy and Hatfield, and also Messrs. Innis and Timpson, ex-Aldermen,) and it should be fally verified before this Court receives it. If itis such a charge as wecan receive, it would be improper that the gentle- men implicated should sit as judges. It is therefore pro- per that this Court should require the charges to be pro- perly verified. If there is sufficient prima facie evidence to put the Justices upon their trial, our learned associates should not be allowed to sit as judges. After the charges are verified we can proceed to make the order. Judge Ivoranam suggested that new matter ha! been allowed in former charges, by way of amendment. It was necessary, however, that the Court and accused be seasonably furnished with eopies. Mr. Loro replied that tho additional matter did_not ap- pear to be amendments, but new charges. He had not tothe bottom of the document yet, but he should not be surprised, before he got through, to find the First Judge himself connected with theconspiracy. It ivan attempt, by driving off the members, to pack a Court, the same as acorrupt sheriff would pack a jury. It seems worth: only of men pantin for office und prowling for suc! round this hall. He did not believe the Court would allow these charges to pollute their records without their being properly verified. Mr. Patrenson replied that it had turned out just as he expected it would when he consented to present the de- tails of his case. He is charged with haviog packed a Court. Yet the gentlemen on the other side may say as they please. I havea higher anda better duty to perform, and J mean to do so without fear or favor. The entieman has made an allusion as to the members of this Court. So help me God, I would as soon try this cause before your Honor (Judge U!shoeffer) or any other entleman inthis Court, as before the whole. Ihave no- thing but my duty to do, and | shall do it fearlosaly, let the result fall where it ‘We shall be ready to enter upon these charges when allowed to do so, and { fully be- lieve shall be able to prove them. ‘A motion having been made to that effect,the first Judge asked if it was the pleasure of the court to adjourn to Tuesday next at 40’clock. ‘i Judge Ivcranam said that every time the County Court met an expense of $50 to $100 was incurred. I sugy the propriety of meeting at 10 or 11 o’clock and setting through the day till the case is finished—it will be badly tried in any other way. a O'Connor nit tere boca | eo eR aittamne charges, but what con in the of the Grand Jury. ntlemen have had ample no- tic.

Ifthese justices are to be removed even without the forms of law, the case had better be disposed of at once, but if you mean to allow them an opportunity for defi nce, they should be allowed sufficient time.

Tue Great Tammany Meerine.—We give to-day afull report of the very interesting proceedings at Tammany Hall last night. A most tremendous interest is felt about the nomi- nation of members of Assembly. The cause of this interest springs from the fact that the new (io- vernor, whom the democrats hope to elect, has tie appointment of nearly 100 State officers for this city, with salaries and perquisites equal to $150,000 —and stealings and pickings equal to $100,000, or more, The members of Assembly to be elected will have a principal finger in these appointments. Hence the motive forgetting a nomination If the democrats succeed, every man now in office, ap- pointed by the Governor and Senate, will be turned out, and locofocos appointed in their places. From these facts, a blind man can see the motive which causes patriotism in Tammany to overflow, and bubble up to Heaven, as high as the magnificent fountain of the Park NINE DAYS LATER FROM EUROPE. ARRIVAL OF THE BRITANNIA. ‘This morning, athalf past two o’clock, a special messenger, despatched by the enterprising Harnden & Co., reached this office with news from Europe It was brought to Boston by the steam ship Britannia, Captain Hewitt, in fourteen days Money in the London Moncy Market is 2j a 2! percent. Prices in the produce markets have gene- rally declined, owing to large arrivals. The Liverpool Cotton Market was still without animation. A decided improvement had taken place in the manufacturing districts. Most of the hands had re- turned to work. Several, however, still held out, and threatened terribly, The prices of cotton are without alteration. At Airdrie and Newbattle, outrages have been committed by the colliers, but they are not so seri- ous as heretofore. The news from the Cape of Good Hope is very welcome, after the gloomy rumors that had previ- ously reached us. Capt. Smith, of the 27th regi- ment, with his detachment, were relieved en the 26th of June, by a force under Lieut. Col. Cloete, from the difficult situation in which they had been placed by the success of the insurgent boors at Port Natal. The Caladonia arrived out on the 2d instant. TheAshburton treaty has been the theme of much discussion—the papers affirming that this country has the worst of the bargain. Several of the chartist leaders, including Feargus O’Connor, have been arrested on a charge of con spiring to promote sedition. There had been a turn out among the Glasgow spinners. There had been more failures among the corn factors. France is to come into the Treaty adopting a mu- tual right of search. Lately frequent conferences between Lord Cowley and Mr. Guigot had been held on the subject. Itissaid that a very important aHeration is about to take place in the conduct of the East India Com- pany as regards the selection of persons for perform- ing the civil service in the east. The vexed question of the Stadt duties has been settled. There is to be a general impost of ¢ per cent onall kinds of merchandise. A system of extensive frauds has just been disco- vered at Rotterdam. No further particulars relative to the great fire in Liverpool. The number of lives lost by this catas- trophe is not yet ascertained. Our Minister, Edward Everett, Esq., had made another speech before the Waltham Agricultural So- ciety. The French army and navy are to be reduced. The Spanish Government had succeeded in ne- gotiating a loan of 12,000,000 rials. Queen Victoria intends visiting Ireland hext sum- mer. A protracted drought in Germany; the grass and clover are turnt up; the peasantry eagerly sell their live stock ; and the greatest fears are entertained of short provisions for the winter. The contraband business in Spain is carried on to an incredible extent. Tne value of cotton alone in- troduced by this means is estimated at about£3,000,- 000 sterling per annum. The Paris journals refer to the deplorable ravages occasioned thronghout France by the late rains, which produced in various districts inundations un- equalled in extent since the year 1812. In several of the wine districts, those of the Rhone particularly, the vintage had been nearly destroyed Several vessels have arrived at London from Montreal, and Boston, U. S., partly laden with American flour We learn from Constantinople, that there had been a collision between the Maronites and Druces, in which lives were lost on both sides. The ‘new American Tariff creates discontent nong the mercantile classes of England. ‘The news from Circassia and Daghestan continu- ed to be unfavorable to the Russian arms. In the former, the insurgeuts had gained fresh advantages over the invaders. and possess themselves of se- veral forts situate along the coast of the Black Sea ; and in Daghestan, different tribes of the country had entered into an offensivo and defensive league, and defeated the Russians in various encounters. Death or rHk Marquis Weuiesiy.—The death of this nobleman took place at his late residence, Kingston House, Brompton, between three and four o'clock, on Sunday morning. From the alarm- ing symptoms of the previous few days it was not un- expected. A change of ministry has taken place in Portugal, and auew cabinet has been formed, at the head of which isthe Duke sf Terceira. France. The Paris Commerce of the 28th ult. asserts, on the authority of a Washington correspondent, that immediately after the conclusion of the late treaty with Great Britain, the American cabinet had a dressed to the French minister a note, declaring that, although the Union was willing to co-operate with all the powers to enforce upon American ‘citi- zens the strict observance of its laws against the slave-trade, “at no period and on no account would iever permit a foreign nation to exercise a right sovereignty on hoard American vessels.”” ‘The Conrier de la Gironde publishes a letter from « Bordeaux merchant, complaining that by the new American tariff the duties on French brandies are raised to 250 percent, and on French wines to 100 percent, which amounts to an actual prohibition, and will deprive the two departments of the Gi- ronde and the Charente Inferieure, of the sale of 400,000 hectolitres of wine annually, whiist the high- «stduty imposed by the same tariff on British man- fretures, 1s but 40 por cent Markets Loxpow Monty Manxet, Oot 3.~ There haw been a fall- 11g market, speaking generally, for the national securities tbe week, not, however, that any very large amount of stock has been sale. penis of the transfer book le, asthe losses by fireat L’ to not far short of half a milliou sterling, wust being insuranee offices int market as sellers of the ft as well as the unf Money, too, has ce: ly been more in request, but still prices of stock have only vacillatel } cent, taking the extreme value ed this week.

Oct. 3.—Tuesday’s demand for cotton has been mode- e, and the sales amount to only 3000 bags, which con- sist of various descriptions. 11 on the whole pretty steady, although the demand is dull. Sept. 30.—The amount of business done in the cotton market this week 1s to a moderate extent, the demand ha- eing been extremely limited during the latter part of it ; net withstanding the loss by fire of 44,947 begs, consisting of 422 Sea Island, 33,181 erican, 262 Pernambuco, 71 Maranham, 60 Bahia, 158 Egyptian, 7500 Surat, and 300 Madras, the market has been pretty well supplied, and in the early part ofthe week a very partial advance of }d per pound was obtained on the common and middling qualitiesof American descriptions, but it has since been entirely lost, and prices of all kinds are new the same as on Friday last. The trade have purchased very sparingly, owing to jhe market for yarn and goods last Tuesday at Manchester une been anything but satis- factory. The sales of the week amount to 16,820 bags, of which speculators have taken only 1200 bags of American, and exporters 300 American and 150 Surat. There have today been oflered by public sale about 1700 bage of Sea Island and Stained, but ort bags of the former, and 70 of the latter have been sold- The import of the week amounts to 5,410 bags. To-day’s demand for cotton has been moderate, andthe sales amount to only 2,500 bags. Prices are without alter- ation. Liverroo. Coan Manxet.—Friday Sept. 30.—There is no alteration in any of the duties on foreign produce this week, and the only change in colonial is on Rye, advanced to 2s 6d per quarter. The operations in the corn trade here from the close of Tuesday, and previous to this date, were generally of a very limited character; at our Corn Exchange this morn- i ther slender attendance of be bal no acti- vit business was apparent; of good fresh foreign Wheat, hows sales were effected to a moderate extent, on terms in some instances equal to, and in other at asligth abatement from our last currency ; while Irish new, in the tempo! absence of arrivals, commanded rather higher prices. States and Canadian Flour continuing in request, waa 6d per bbl, dhesper but English and Irish, being scrace, would have sold freely at our last quota: tions. Liverroot Provision Manxet, Oct. 3.—American Pro- visions—The imports are so very trifling, as not to be worth notice. In consequence of the low duty coming into operation on the 10th instant, the transactions have not been exten- sive, asthe bolders are very firm in their demands ; the dealers are waiting the result of the new duty, on which day considerable quantities will be taken out of bond, and consequently will become more generally known in the interior of the country. Canad.an Beef and Pork sells freely at 37s 6d per barrel, allother articles the same as last quoted, and prices quite nominal until after the 10th nt. Havar Maxxets.—A letter from Hayre, dated Septem- ber 24, says, our Cotton imports this week amounted to 8000 bales, ata reduction of 1 to 2 from ordinary qnalities; stock 168,000 bales.

Webb. ‘The Court of Sessions presented yesterday rather jingular scene. It was the occasion of the sentence of Colonel Webb, of the “Regular Army,” for leav- ing this State to fight a duel, for which he was in- dicted, and to which indictment he pleaded guilty. Col. Webb did not take his seat in the prisoner’s box, but sat in the centre of the room, in exactly the same position that the reporters occupied at the Ashburton Dinner. He was surrounded by a smull legion of lawyers, who were laughing, talking, g18- gling, quizzing at him, and at each other for a full halfhour. Major Noah came bustling into the Court Room, about eleven o’clock, and after much puffing and blowing, and adjusting his wig, he made his way up to the side of Webb, and shook his hand ; soon after this, Theron Rudd came in and sat down by Webb’s side, and entered into all his reminiscences about duelling in the olden time, under King Ste- phen’s dynasty. There were only about a dozen females present, and they were not the best looking in the city, by any means. There was an immense number of lawyers present, who came to see the ground broke fora new development in law, morals, and crime. The negro gallery wascrammed. So was the other gallery, and the excitement was considerable. Webb looked pale, but in good spirits. Noah looked red, but not in such good spirits, and Rudd was full of fun. The Bench was composed ot whigs entirely— the Recorder, Tallmadge, Judge Lynch, Alder- men Stewart and Crolius. The District Attorney was not present. Marshall J. Bacon appeared in his chair. The Recorder entered at 3 past 11 and took his seat. Then there was a general commo- tion; and then an awful pause ; Webb looked nght full at the bench, and” the Recorder and Judge Lynch hemmed slightly. Alderman Stewart and Alderman Crolius sat still und made no sign. The Recorder and Judge Lynch whispered together for a few minutes; then there was another pause, and a great deal of under-talking round the C urt.— But no one spoke out loud. Old Hays looked very sternat Webb, and indeed at almost every body in the Court, but he kept capital order. There was a pause of many minutes, antil several asked, “‘ What are the Court waiting for 7” Some one said, ‘* The pardon hasn’teome.” At last, after another pause, the Recorder told Mr. Bacon that they were ready to proceed. Mr. Bacon said, that inthe case of James Watson Webb, who had pleaded guilty to an indictment for leaving this State with intent to receive a chal- lenge, he moved the Court to pass sentence upon him. Recorper.—Arraign him ! . Henry Vanpgvoort.—What have you now to say lod judgmsat should not be pronounced against you Wess.—Nothing whatever. New York against James Watson ebb, the accused hav- ing pleated guilty to the indictment, the District Attorney has now moved the Court for sentence to be passed upon him. (Great sensation, and & deathlike pause throughout the room.) Since the plea of guilty was received, the Court has examined the indictment, ana the law apper- taining to the offences with which the prisoner is charged. The first count of the indictment charges, “ That James W. Webb, on the 20th dey of June, 1842, then being an in- habitant of this State, did Jeave the same for the purpose ofeluding the operation of the provisions of the statute entitled “Of Duelling end Challenges to Fight,’ with the intent of giving a challenge without this State, as therein rohibited.” "he second count charges, that being such inhabitant of this State, he did, on the day aforesaid, leave this State with the intent of receiving a challenge without this State, against the form of the stitute, &c. The third Count cherges that he left the State for the purpose of elading the Statute, &c. aud with the intent of receiving a challenge without the State, &c. And the fourth Count charges, that the said J.W. Webb, in pursuance of such intent, did leave this State and go to the State of Delaware, with the intent of receiving a challenge from Thomas L. Marshall, to fight a duel without this State, st the form of the jute, Sc. It will be perceived that the chi are the same in the several counts in this indictment, so far forth as in- volving the question now to be disposed of by the Court. The statute (2 Rev. Stat. p. 672) entitled “of duelling and challenges to fight,” inthe 6th section, that the purpose of elbding. the operstion ef the “provisogs| e of el eo) 1e “provisis herela contain ting duelling or challengos to fight, with the intent of giving or receiving any chal-) lenge, and shall give or receive any such without, this State, he shall be deemed as guilty, and shail t, to the like punishment as if the offence had been com 4 within thie State.” ‘This section of the statute does not appear to have been intended to create 2 new offence, but to ish any ‘inhabitant of this State who shall leave it for the ph of elu the ope- ration of the provisions of this act.” In ot! ‘words, it is intended to punish, where an act is commit- ted in another State, by an inhabitant of this: State: provi- ded, Ist, That it be such an act as would be an offence if committed within this State; and, 2d, That he left this ‘State with the intent of eluding the provisions of the act. The question then arises, is he charged in the: indict- ment with such an act as would, if committed within this State, be within the provisions of thie act. The se- cond’ section of the act provides that “ person who shall challenge another to fight ‘a duel, or who shall send or deliver any written or verbal legen or who shall aceept any such challenge, or who shall knowingly eth or deliver any sch challenge or message,” shall, on conviction, be punished by imprisonment, What act, then, is charged in this indictment, which, if committed within this State, would be indictable or pun- ishable under this act? No count in the indict: ment cl any other act than that he left this ha 8 with Mot intent ; giving or receivers a el Ke, omitting to cl that any cl was either ren or roodved the veal Do the laws of this State inflict punishment where mere intent exists, unaccompanied by any overt acts? Su such intent existed w! in our own Bate, bat no challenge passed—would the entertaining that intent subject party to punishment? The of an intent, or determination to do a wrong to another, will authorize & magistrate to bind the party to keepthe peace—that ia preventive in its fest. ‘and ie. not intended ss @ punishment for an offence committed. But the rer phraseology of the section of the Statute, which constitutes the offence hay pei to have deen ictment intended to be Rept Sd in the it mm: phy sustains the v: ~! @ that I have present " ‘section of the Statute provides, that “ If any inhabitant of this State shall leave the same for the pur- pose of eludin, beg xis of the provisions of this act, with the intent of giving or receiviog any chul- lenge,” &e., and shall give or receive any such challenge, ke. without this State, he shall be deemed guilty, &c. By its very provisions, therefore, I do not discover how the offence can be considered to have been committed un- til the intent, as charged in the indictment, is consum- mated by the act of giving or receiving a challenge. The Indictment does not charge the giving or receiving a challenge by the accused, and by Ph ing guilty to the indictment the accused has not that he has vio- lated any law, for which violation this court can inflict any punishment. The party is charged merely with leaving this State, with the intent to receive or give a challenge. But the statute most certainly is intended to mean that the person to cffend shall also give or receive a haem, acta court we pa cannot sustain any indict- ment w el only an intent. I can find no act in a thotities h would ‘arrant uf in so do- under the 26th , there the party was liable to punishment for the mere intent. ‘This is the only case I can find in any ot the authorities. There the Court cannot sustain the present indictment. However, we shall be very happy to ear the District Attorney on the subject. Mr. Bacon rose and said, that the District Attorney was trying a case in the Oyer and Terminer, and he was aware of the course which the Court meant to pursue this matter. He considered it was too late to object to the: indictment after the plea of ym ad been recorded. The only advant: that coul coy bow of a defect in an in- dictment was by ademurrer,or a motion in arrest of. ment. And if the indictment was set aside, it woa! leave the accused open to be indicted avother grand ury. I consider,however,that t ‘waives all bec rene | bw rae Andlal left and meaning of the statu’: te ns who fg r ¢ was to punish perso: 4 ink thet the state for the mere intent to receive a challen, they did receive a challenge or no, 1 do the statute contemplated punishwent for the act of giving or receiving a challenge in another State. It is only competent for our courts to punish acts done in this State ; they cannot punish for an act done in another State. Sup- pose a person was with: 8 ape in the course of the evidence it was to come out that the rape was committed in New Jersey, the indictment would fallthrough. And if we hed put fa a clause in this Indict- ment, charging that an act was done in another state— that he gave or received a challenge there—then it would be contended that the court had no jurisdiction over acts done |, and that the prisoner must be dis- charged, end, aps, correctly. However, as J am taken somew! surprise in this matter, not being pre- viously aware of the opinion of thecourt, and only ap. ‘as the mere locum fenens of the District Attorney, ‘am not prepared to say what course he will think pro- per to pursue. Jyvor Lyven.—I concur fully with the Recorder, as to the law of the case he has laid down. However, ifthe Die trict Attorney requires time to prepare an argument! in the case, the Court willhearhim. But itisneeessary that one count musi contain the charge that he left the State both with the intent to receive or give a challenge, and that he did give or receive a challenge. Reconpen--In answer te a remark of the Acting Dis- Wict Attorney, that by pleading guilty the prisoner has waived all ions to the indictment, let us ask.—He has pleaded guilty to what? He has pleaded guilty to go- ug out of the State with the intent only of giving or re- ceiving achall ; and (hav’s not an offence which this Court deems punishable under any of our laws. How- ever, the District Attorney may apply to the Supreme Court for a mandamus to this Court to "7 pone te the prisoner , but there is now no & for any punish: ment by the Court! What isthe next cause ready ier isin ‘fi ] sir On this announcement, there wae a great deal of smiling and sneering inside the Court Room, and he guffawing and derisive roars of laughter outside were toud and one loafer had the im, ice toery out, “ ag—d lawyer’s quib- ble!” Webb went out of the ‘court in great appa- rentgood humor—and passed down Nassau street to his office.

A Straw Beil Man tried for Perjury.—Although this crime has been committed by some dozen sharks that prey about the Tombs, and who should have been indicted and sent to the State prison long since,yet it is rare that an indictment is ever presented to the court, and, therefore, the present trial may be considered rather ary. The prisoner whose name is Isaac Walter, a mason, and who has resided at 67 Mulberry street, made application to Judge Inglis, on the 26th of June, 1842, to be received as security tie appearance of Otis: Alien, the counter: feiter, and upon j tion, made oath that he owned the houses and lots 103, 105 and 107 Mercer street, the house e Butchers’ and nk, je owned the premises 172 Mott street.

Dear Benyerr :— Our city, yesterday, presented the appearance v a regular holiday, and “all work and no pay,” did not seem a very populaf apathegm with the mass; the very antipodes of the proposition was in general favour. Between our military guests, and the parade of firemen throughout the day, in honor of the re- turn of the Baltsmore Committee of Temperance Firemen from your city, the streets were piled up with loafers of every description, and ladies of every shade and colour of character, from the high toned magnifico to the denizen of the stew—all shared an evanescent equality—all basked in God’s universal sun, and were as happy as heaven and their own conscience could make them. Temperance is do- ing its work among our firemen, and God knows, it did’nt come too seon, for, although, I am tree tocon- fess there are gentlemen in the department, there are likewise as great a banditti associated there- with, as ever swang from a gallows, or peeped through the interstices of a penitentiary.
