NEW New York, Friday YORK HERALD. December 2, 1843, nisiration—Its Po- Captain Tyler—His Ad sition and Past Movements—Suanshine in the Fog. There is a great deal of speculation, guessing, conjeoture, wonder, doubt, fear, and fiddle-faddle, about the movements and present position of Captain T his relations to the two great par- e rise and fall of cliques of professing friends— e movements respecting cabinets, collectors, nd postmasters, each as long asthe road “from ties to Beersheba.” Let us lift the veil—let us shed 1 beam of sunshine on the fog. The collectorship of the port of New York has caused some very amusing intrigues. Mr. Curtis, cur present very efficient Collector, is now very firmly seated in his saddle for a ride of two years or During the last summer, down to last month, na very precarious position, and felt every sif he would have te walk out of office he question of his removal was in a constant state of agitation. Young Captain Bob Tyler came on to this city—sawvarious persons amd cligues—and things looked squally for the Collector. Mr. Curtis had been appointed by General Harrison, through the inflaence of Mr. Webster; but Mr. Webster felt his in the cabinet so precarious, that he little assistance to the Collector in the Both felt like Robinson Crusoe in a storm levilish funny about the neck and shoulders. Inthe meantime, two candidates of the real Ty- ler stock,sprung up, each witha host of friends back- ing them up—a id both looking towards the Custom Heuse. The Hon. Daniel D. Tallmadge was one can- didate, a worthy man, too, backed by Senator Tall- madge and half of Postmaster Graham from the waist down, This was one clique. Thencame Wm. P, Hal- 80 he wai weel own positior could give storm let, Hsq., another candidate, backed by the other half of Postmaster Graham, the whole of Redwood Fisher, Noah, ineluding his fat, and the old clo’ party that meet at Military Hall. This was the se- cond clique; and they had by all odds the largest stock of old clothes and old tricks—old democracy and old roguery. During the two visits of the “young Captain” to ew York, these two cliques kept him in hot water and sugar—eating, dining, talking, and cutting out breeches of all sizes. Poor Ned Curtis and his clique could hardly catch the “young Captain” to give him a single dinner. Things went on in this way—looking worse and worse every day.— The Tallmadge men had made out their list of removals and appointments—surveyor, na- val officer and all—and then lay on their oars, licking their lips, and only waiting for orders frem i Captain at Washington to fall in. The old we had made the same propositions, Noah § surveyor of course—spending their days in sharpening knives, and giving point to their forks, when the fat steaks of the Custom House fell to the the « sings stood in this way, betwixt and between, like the coffin of Mahomet, ‘anging between hea- ven and earth, for half the summer. The elections were fapproaching. Webster, Spencer, and the northern men in the administration, felt that they justo, unless something could be done to check “guard.” They resolved to trya move. Mr. r first stept out with the following letter to a member of the whig convention of Massachu- setts :— Wasnixoror, August 24, 1842. Dean Sim :—My advice to the Whigs of Massachuset (which | fear they are not likely to have r Wwoull be, by no means to committhe State, at this mo- ment, to any body. Events of magnitude are constantly a ng. Next yearatthis time will be quite in season, snd nothing appears to me to be necessary now but make rally for the State Government. Such is Mr. Clay’s present position, that no one can to see the awkwardness of pushing him at the pr Such a proceeding can do him no good, and I fear would be sure to give the State to the Locofocos. It 18 notto be zuisel, that these premature nominations have not ithe Whig cause. in States in which elections have \d, such as North Carolina, Indiana, Illinois, &e. My own opinion is, that equally bad would follow the same policy, if adopted in Massach: I write tais t moment. n confidence, but yon may show itto one or two of the committee. [never had a stronger opinion upon any po- litical question, I pray you preserve this letter, as I keep no copy. Yours, truly, DANIEL WEBSTER. Jon P. Heany, Ese. He followed this movement up with the great speech in Faneuil Hall, which was reported in the Herald, andof which we circulated 100,000 copies. John C. Spencer played' the same game in New York, and helped to skin his coon. The elections demolished the whigs—these gentlemen claimed all the credit, and Captain Tyler,out of gratitude, could not think of changing his cabinet till next spring at farthest In the mean time the intrigues to remove Mr: Curtis continued in New York. In order to coun- teract these movements, Mr. Curtis, who of course could do nothing with the whigs, went into consul- tation with Jesse Hoyt, Barnabas Bates, and a few other choice spirits,who had passed through the Red Sea, knew all the rocks and sand banks—and brought to Horeb as many of the silver vessels of the Lgyptians as they could find. They advi- sed him to get the locofocos to indorse him, and all would be well with Captain Tyler.— When Major Joe Hopkins, Moon Hoax Locke, Mike Walsh, and the Pewter Mug boys, were getting up meetings and passing resolutions, in favor of the removal of Mr. Curtis, Mr. Curtis, him- self, goesidirectly into Tammany Hall, procured the indorsement of Ely Moore,{Elijah F. Purdy, and six other strong members of the Tammany General Committee. The letter is carried to Washington as the only exponent of the democratic party of New York—the Tallmadge cligque—the old clo’ cligue—the Pewver Mug clique, andall were tumbled overboard, and Captain Tyler,looking wise,»t once gives in his idhesion to the indorsement—puts at rest the hope fremoval—and John Jones, of the Madisonian, is direeted to announce that no change will be made in the New York Custom House for the present. Thus and so did Mr. Curtis out-general all the liques organised against him. A great deal of se- cret discontent is generating among the Tyler men who want office—but who cares? Several new ap- pointments have been made in the Custem House, all out-and-out locofocos and Van Buren men. Ma- ny more are to be made—but the recent declara- tion of hostilities by the Globe and Tom Benton, has made Captain Tyler and his curiosity ship, with all the present crew, luff up and prepare for ano- ther tack, either to the south, to the west, or to the north. The first tack, under the “old guard,” was to the south—the second tack was to the north—a small tack was made towards Pennsylvania—a big tack towards New York and Van Burefit~but we Suppose the next tack may be to Salt River, to ar- rive there all well on the 4th of March, 1844. Captain Tyler isa very excellent, honest, worthy man, but it is melancholy to see how he has been deceived by cliques of office-beggars, an? gangs of knaves of all kinds. One of the worst errors he ever cominitted was the foolish attempt to establish special newspaper organs in New York and Phila- delphia, on the avails of the public printing. The “Philadelphia Express” and the “New York Umon” are not only utter abortions, but they have, by their folly and rascality, drawn off fromthe sup- port of the administration many of the old establish- ed and widely circulating journals. At present, every thing is in a fog. Ivreciigence From Evrorg.~—The Celumbia, the fast boat of the Royal Mail Line, is out thirteen days this morning. We shall prebably receive her news, which will be fifteen dayslater, some time to- morrow morning. Although she is a fast boat, we can hardly expect her, at this season of the year, to make as quick a passage as the Acadia did on her last trip. News from Europe is now looked for with increased interest Sixavtan Acctoent.—One of the Croton Water pipes in Canal street burst on Wednesday and tore up the gtound and pavement for thirty feet, and acarly filled three cellars fall of water. ‘The The noise was’as loud as the explosion of a cannon. More Trovnie amone THe Fancy—WEsB AND Marsnaut, Ixorergo in Detaware.—We received intelligence vesterday morming of the indictment of the Hon. Thomas F. Marshall, and also that of James Watson Webb, by Grang Jury in the State of Delaware, on account of that duel fought there last summer. There willbe no ordinary: mode of getting out of thisindictment that we can see, by petition or other- wise. The Governor of Delaware will demand the delivery of both the gentlemen—one from the Go- vernor of Kentucky, the other from the Governor of New York. What will Governor Seward say in reply to such a demand? This will be a curious point—but not all. The Hon. T. F. Marshall is a member of the present Congress, and will be soon in Washington, ‘The course for the Governor of De- laware to pursue, is, to demand the person of Mar. shall of the Presideat of the United States. The pri- vilege of parliament do not cover criminal arrests— only civil. What, then, will Captain Tylerdo? Will he deliver up Marshall ? and will both Webb and he be tried in little Delaware, in the same box ? ‘This case begins to present very curious features. The great trial between the laws and the usages of bad society, will be brought up once again: We doubt whether we can do much for Webb in this business. By a great effort we knocked down seven of the ten pins that procured his last pardon, but we can have little influence with a Governor of a State, the whole breadth of which you can walk over before breakfast, and whose salary is about $300 per an- num, and a fatsheep for Christmas. Besides, Webb refused very savagely our present of wine and se- gars, besides treating very unhandsomely the fa mous segar keeper, Henriques, 51 William street, and insulting a box of 100 of the very best segars, by threatening to kick them into the street instead of smoking them. Yet, even our bowels of compassion are melting for the poor Colonel. if Webb will apologise like a reinstated gentleman, for that con- duct, andsmoke one of these segars, as the Indian does the calumet,asan emblem of peace, we'll go to Delaware and settle his business quietly, or throw a wet blanket over the length and breadth of that State that will burry it in a thick fog till the day of judgment come on the 28d of April 1843, according to Prophet Miller. We must also help Tom Mar- shall. Conrrapicrep.—The Philadelphia United States Gazette of yesterday, has the following :— The Grand Jury of Delaware county yesterday presented the Hon Thomas F. Marshall, for fight- ing aduel. Colonel Webb escaped the like notice, by reason of his having occupied a positionon the otherside of the line of the State, during the fight. Examination into THE Cask oF Brisinc Hart WiTH THE $1000.—As the public feel deeply inter ested in this matter we are requested to say, by authority, that the committee on police, watch and prisons, to whom the investigation of the whole sub- ject has beenreferred, are prosecuting the examina- tion with great vigilance and rigor. Vultee has been examined at length, and we are assured that it is perfectly astonishing to see with what intense eager- ness and pertinacity the prisoner Colt endeavored to work upon his feelings, and induce him to accept $500 which he tendered him in cash, merely to al- low him to leave his own cell and enter the adjoin- ing one, from which he had made arrangements which would enable him to effect his escape. Eight or ten other witnesses have been examined, and among them Messrs. Emmet and Selden, but not Samuel Colt, asyet. No discovery nor clue has yet been made of the person who conveyed the knife to the suicide. And there can be but little doubt that should the very individual himself who gave Colt the knite be bronght before the committee for exam- ination, that he would perjure himself to avoid de- tection, especially as the law requiresno man to criminate himself. The High Sheriff, Mr. Hart,fhas been summoned to appear before the committee,but he has left the city for the west, and will be absent for some days. It is said that ne left on the day after his communication enclosing the $1000 was handed in to the Board of Aldermen, that is, last Tuesday. He was not present at the Board himeelf on Monday evening, butsent in bisletter by Mr. Westervelt. We presume he is not absent at this particular crisis to avoid the investigations now in progress. If Mr. Hart would save his credit, he should take the ear- liest opportunity to make a full and unreserved dis- closure of all he knows on the subject. He should tell the public who gave him that letter—where the beginning of it is—where the envelope is—why he did not immediately disclose the fact that he had reeeived the $1000, and then take whatever time he chose, if it were six months, to make his disposi- tion of it. We are informed that he did mention the fact—when we do not know—to Judge Tog! and to one of his deputies, Westervelt, probably: On one point the public may rest assured, that John C. Colt is dead, and that he died a suicide, as we have already reported. The commitiee are pursu- ing the investigations with the best of legal assis- tance, and we are assured it will be thorough, and A Pustic Dinner Decurep.—The Hon. Levi ‘Woodbury has declined to accept a public dinner recently offered him by several distingués of the party in thiscity. We are sorry if the Senator had no appetite—but the dinner ought not cool off General Cass will soon be here, on his return from France. Let this distinguished man have the knife and fork. LECTURES AND Lecturers —Ofall the unmitigated trash that ever was inflicted upon a community, as a Just punishment for its manifold transgressions, are the various lectures now giving to the unfortunate audiences every day in the week in the devoted city of New York. Not one of the lectures deliver- ed this season has been worth a notice, excepting the introductory ones of Dr. Augustine Smith, on Geology, and Dr. Neilson, on Physiology. Dr. Smith’s lecture was attempted to be reported in the “Tribune,” but so badly that its blunders produced a discussion among Dr. Smith, Professor Lewis and others, that well nigh produced bad blood, and caused the devil to laugh. These lectures are trash—trash—trash—trash— irredeemable trash. Errects or tue Gate.—The gale on Wednesday night was very severe. No mails arrived till late yesterday, and the steamer which left here on Wed- nesday afternoon for Boston, with letters for the Acadia, did not probably reach her destination yes- terday afternoon. But according to arrangements made exclusively by Harnden & Co. with the Royal Mail Steamship Company, their steamers are to wait twenty hours for the mail sent by that establishment. No serious damage was done in the city. Although the vessels on the east side of the city were exposed to the violence of the gale—none of them were materially injured. Several small craft lying near Grand street ferry were slightly chaffed. Sloop Mechanie, of Fort Montgomery, with a deck load of futtocks, lying at the head of Cherry street, had her cabin windows broken in, and received other slight damage, A sloop at the pier foot of Broome street lost her bowsprit, had her boat crush- ed, &c. Nothing else worth recording. The sloop Superior was capsized in the lower bay. No lives lost. A topsail schooner, name not known, was driven ashore on the Jersey shore, about five miles'south of the Highlands. Our streets are in a shocking condition. Sleighing lasted for two hours only. Mr. Cuay.—At the last accounts, Mr. Clay was at Louisville, on his way to New Orleans, where he intends to spend the winter among the Creoles. Mr. Broptx has published his fourth letter. Very good, but cold. Cost ora Journey to New Onurans.—By Augua, ta and Mobile, the cost of travelling to New Orleans from Philadelphia, is $94 75. The same journey by Wheeling and Cincinnati is $52. So it is said, but we don’t believe it Tue Teta or ALEXANDER FoR THE MurpEr oF Lovers in Paravetrma.—We give the evidence taken on the first day in this very extraordinary case, It appears to be very evident, even now, that there is to be a great, and doubtless successful, eflort to get him clear. But we can tell the people of Philade!phia that if this is done it will be a terrible stain on their city,and a shocking mockery of justice Before commencing the evidence, where the first two or three witnesses appeared to have been tam pered with, till they either could not or would not recognize the prisoner,we will give an abstract of the speech of the opening counsel for the prosecution, because it sets the case ina clear and connected light, and shows, to our thinking, conclusively,that poor Lougee was murdered for money. Wepvespay, Nov. 30. Mr. Porter commenced by saying to the jury :— We shall be able te show you by the prisoner's acts and words that this was prompted by love of filthy lucre. Against the pris vill say nothing. We will trace the prisoner fro part of the morning of the ath of July until the commission of the act for » hich he stands Charged. We first find him at the klin House in Chestnut street, kept by Mi where he registe! name not as Alexander, but as Smith. We next tind him at the broker’s office of Storm & Mor- gan, in South Third street, and next at the scene of the murder itself, We shall show you that this office was just opened, and that Lougee had just gone in when the prisoner followed him—that Lougee opened hi window shutters,took out his money drawer,and then this murder was committed. We shall show you the prisoner’s motiveto commit this crime. Another fact that will be given in evidence is that money was found scattered about over the floor, evidently showing that ggle had tak- enplace. We shall show that blood was found on the money—finger marks on it, showing that a strugzle had taken place. We next find the prisoner runni ig iowa the street, having failed in his object. He supposed that the blow had not proved fatal, and he ran. He endeavored to elude pursuit by calling out as he was running, and ‘We shall show plunged the dagger in abed of mortar. Fou the seabbart of the da ter the murder was commit actly. We shall show you tl Second, down Second to Norri Front street, along Front to the store of Messrs. We think if we pro will be sufficient to warrant a conviction. We shail al in addition to this, lay belore youthe best of all evidex a full confession of the crime by the prisoner himself — When the crime was first mentioned to him, could not help it now—that it was a love scrape the matter—that an altercation had ensued betw and he plunged it into him. We shall show you that h confessed that ie made a thrust at him. To another wi ness he said that the word “liar” was given, und then he piunged it into him. ‘To another witness he confessed the crime more fally, and said it was money,and mon¢ that he wanted. ‘Money he wanted, and’ must ha cost life—that he must have money, if he paid the price of blood for it, He still called himself Smith, and con- cealed his right name. ‘To another witness he explained himself morgfully—he said there was no way to get his girl but by money, and money he must have by any means—that his father had given him a considerable ‘sum, Which he had spent—that a difference then occurred be: tween him and his friends, and then he left his home and friends in anger—that it was money he wanted and must have, and that was the reason he plunged it into hima. — After the murdered man was struck, we shall show that he walked on to the pavement, uttered a piteous cry, stag- gered back into his office, and fell dead. We shail prove tojyou that the dagger entered the left breast of Mr. Lou- gee, just above the nipple, penetrated between the third and fourth ribs, and entered the left ventricle of the heart. These are the facts that will be given in evidence If after acalm survey of all these facts—if ater we have proved these facts to you—the time when, the place where and the motive that led to the committal ‘of tlie murder— then we shall ask @ verdict of guilty at your hands, against the prisoner at the bar, Milton J. Alexander. The first witness called on’ the part of the Common- wealth was a colored man named Kandolph Campbell, who, being affirmed, deposed:—Recollects the day when a murder was committed in my neighborhood; while I was sweeping the floor a gentleman came in and asked if the gantlemen were in; T answered no; this was between 7 and 8 o'clock; I think, after I answered him, he turned round quickly and said, damn it, Twant to change some western money; he spoke in aquick and fierce manner: I saw the same man afterward that morning turning the corner of Third and Chesnut streets, running down Ches- nut street; as he turned the corner he threw somethin from him, which Ithought wasa stick; dontthink T should know the man if I saw him again ‘The witness was here directed to look around the court- room and point out the gentleman, After doing 60, he said he couldnet pick out the person. Examined by Mr. Patuirs—He appeared to be in a hur- ry; ‘id not see any money in his hands; did not seem to be in a passion, but in a bustle; when he went from the door he passed up Chesnut street; when I saw him run down Chesnut street I thonghtit was the same man that had been in our office; don’t recollect his lorge Panama hat,— Prisoner herestood up and the witness was usked if he thought he was the man;would not dare to say he is, dress alters the appearance of a wan. Jacon Francis, colored, sworn. I am a porter stand at the corner of Third and Chesnut, south east corner; I was standing therein July. On the morning early, I do notrecollect the day, I was looking up Chesnut street, and up Third street;’ saw a gentleman at an office in ‘Third street, four or five doors above Chesnut; don’t know who the gentleman was; saw the gentleman who kept the shop come out and fasten back the window shutter, and then return into the office; after he had eone bach Into the office, I won't say what time, I heard adispute be- tween him and some other man; afew minutes ufter this, Tsaw a gentleman come out of the'dodr with pretty much haste, and pass into the midway of the street; he made a small'stop, and leaned his head dowdward, with his armé upon his breast; atter a short pause he lifted up his arms, and run down ‘Third street, crying wurder, murder?— turned down Chesnut street, and when afew yards be- yond where I was stopping, he ‘made astop, took his hat off his head, trom which he took adagger, which hethrew into a bed of mortar; saw the lying there; it was about five inches long. He then run down Chesnut st.; cant say whether, after this, he made any speech 1 saw him as he ran until he got near Second street; two or three ‘men ran after him on the pavement; after he ran down! ran tothe office; saw blood on the) floor near the door; looked over the counter and saw the man,lyi there, and blood running from him; there was money ly- ing scattered about the floor on the inside of the counter; some ofthe notes, Tthought,- had blood on them; dont know how long the ee had been in the office be- fore this occurred; I knew the prisoner when he came back to the place where the dagger was; don’t think I would know him now; believe he had light clothes on. ‘The man who was brought back was the same man who threw the dirk away; he was making a confession of his crime as they were bringing him up. Examined by Mr. Dautas—The window shutters were open belore the gentleman came out to fasten them back ; can’t say that previous to the fastening back of the shut: ters Isaw the other gentleman go. in ; nor did 1 see any one go in when he was fastening back the shutters. It was but a few moments after that the gentleman came out who cried murder; he had his hat on his head at the time. [ heard him cry murder three or four different times as he went down the street; he ran with his hands down, he ran in the street all the way; when he threw the dirk away it struck the street pavement, and bounded is:to the ed of mortar. When I returned to the office, there was another gentleman, who appeared to be gathering up the notes; I did not know him. The blood was tracked from the door around the counter to where the man lay; the only way to get behind the counter was by going clear around the end of it; I was in the office but about twenty seconds; I think the man qvas then stil iving, y Mr. Porten—The of very narrow, both ini and outside ofthe counter. - uf 'y Mr. Porr—The man lying behind the counter did not speak. ie ar By Mr. Reep—From the time that I saw the mancome out of the office until 1 went in, was not more than a minute. Davrp Brows, (colored) sworn—I saw part of this oc- currence; I was standing opposite the office in Thir4 st, half way between the office and Chesnut; it was about nineteen or twenty minutes after 6 o'clock; don’t know the day of the month or week; when the man came he turned short,and ran down the pavement toward Ches- nut street, and into the middleot Chesnut street, turning down the street; just after he turned, I saw him throw his arm downward, saw the dirk, or whatever it was, glance from him; I saw it glitter; he ran straight down Chesnut the stop thief,” he ran and turned down Second street; I saw the man then in the alley Front street, about to turn; I ran into Wall the man turn the corner up Walnut street, aud enter a -1 stood there until eeveral persons came up to they brought the fit; heheld both lea the first; he held both is breast, and cried “stop him ;” It was not more than two minutes after the firs’ man came out; he speared justioftthe door sill; I think he cried stop him” three or four times; he appeared to be in a weak state, and cried weak; he stood with his face toward the street had his hands up until { started a ha stood to me.

Wititam M. Broome, rc-called.—Thedlood that I spoke of on the railing was on the side of the railing next the counter; it looked as if it had dropped on; Mr. Lougee, in passing round from the door, tottered along as it he was weak; I was within a yard of him; the blood on the rail ing could have dropped from him as he walked round; I did not seeif his person touched the railing ashe walked through; it isnot likely that I should have observed it; { took hold of his hand immediately after he fell; Idid not see much dlood scattered gn the floor when he first fell; the wound in his breast did not bleed very rapidly at the time] tore off his clothes; I saw blood on the counter be. hind the screen; it was onthe edge of the counter; the roll of notes on the play bill was within an inch or two of the edge of the counter; some person said take care of the money; | had sbserved the money before some persons said take care of the money; he walked right up to the place where the money lay; he fell first forward and then right back; I don’t think he was to turn round; I did not see any blood where I first saw Mr. Lougee standing; he was stanuing outside of the door; I did not see any blood between that and the railing; it was not more than halfa minute before some other persons came in; I can’t tell who came in first; the screen stands about three feet above the counter; it 18 a front and a side screen both; T helped to tear the shirt off; (the bloody shirt of the deceased was shown to the witness,) that is apart of the shirt I tore off Mr. Lougee. Cross-examined by Mr. Dattas.—This occurrence was about 15 to 20 minutes past 6; the first thing that struck my eye when I heard the scream andran out, wassome persons running round the corner; I could not see what they were pursuing; 1 heard an outcry, not any words,but a noise; it was immediately after this that | saw Lougee; I think he was there when I first looked out ; I should not think he was as much as two or three feet out of his door; Idid not hear him say any thing 'while he was standing outside of his door, it was the screaming that induced me to go to him aud the position in which he was standing; he did not answer me, but turned and went right back in- to his house; I was right behind him when I crossed the sill of his door within a foot or twe of him; I did not look at the floorat all; I did not at any time cxamine the floor between the counter and the door; he faultered ashe walked back, he did not walk firmly. He stretched out his hand towards the wall after he got inside behind the counter;I could not see how he.used his hand as he pass between the counter and the railing; there were stains of blood on his hands when I came up and took hold of them; he struck that part of the counter where the notes were ith his breast before he fellon the floor; Ido not think I noticed any aj rance of blood; after he fell I noticed the appeerance'pttleed on the floor where he hed fallen; efter I raised the body then I saw the blood; there were a num- ber of separate packages of notes upon the counter behind the screen; all these packages were bound up with a piece of paper inthe usual way, except one; there were two files or pack: and one file was higher than the other; they were not lying across each other ; with the exception of the package that had been unbound, theother packages remained undis- turbed ; Ithink there was no other person there when I went in except Mr. Lougee ; I was undoubtedly fhe first person there after Mr. Lougee went in. The material of the screen was red baize ; it was so high endo thick that no person 'think could see through it; I could not say how many notes made up a package ; I can’t form any idea ; I did not examine any of the loose notes of the pack- age that had been undone; I gathered the notes up and put them all together in one bundle ; I did not look of what description they were ; I also took the notes off the counter outside of the screen ; there was about half a do- zen there ; Icannot recollect the description of any one of those dotes ; I can’t recollect if there were any Indiapa fives ; I put them in the same bundle with the others ; I did not take off Mr. Lougee’s clothing myself ; I was not there when his clothing was taken off; I think Isaw a slate there ; Ithink it was behind the screen lying on the counter ; Idid not examine it particularly ; it was a mid- dling sized slate ; I did not observe whether it had been broken or not ; I'think the window shutters of that office fasten by a key from the inside ; no protection from the owside ; I don’tthink I could identify any of those notes if | saw them ; I think the slate bad a frame to it. By Mr. Rexp—I didnot see Longee’s face until he fell ; I was in there about five minutes ; our shop had been open one hour ; we generally open about five or half-past five, ‘ By Mr. Dat.as—I meant by the notes being disturbed that one ofthe packages was unbound ; the notes dd not present any appearance of being grasped or injured. By Mr. Reep—I last saw the play billin Mr. Rhyno’s shop. By Mr. Pors—The screen was a about three fect high from the counter, Dy Mi. Reep—There was a long shelf ran ight along the Wall.

By Mr. Jouwson—Can't say how many persons were there, the bill of exchange I cannot recollect ; | have a° memorandum of it and of all the notes ; it wasa draft on Cincinnati for $295 29 ; I counted the money found there in compauy with Captain Bulkley, of the City Police ; $3028 21 was tlietotal amount ; the notes were in pack: ages with slips of paper around them ; all except one, it had been broken ; no blood upon any except the one bro. ken open, and there was blood upon the strip which had been round that ; the blood was fresh.

By Mr. Dattas—As theman ran past, I saw his full face ; I thought I had seen him before, and think so now. Ww. Deat, sworn—I livein Kensington; am 16 years of agey I recollect the morning of the occurrence; I was op- posite Mr. Lougee’s office; between five and six, I heard some one halloo very loud; like some one groaning; the sound came from the opposite side; I turned and looked over;I saw aman run out of the door; he run down Third towards Chesnut; I run down too; I saw no more of him; he ran down Chesnut street; he had in his hand a knife; white handled; saw no blood on it;1 don’t know what he done with the knife, I saw the man that groaned come to the door; he stood with his hands on his breast leaning forward; he turned round and went in. By Judge Conrav—I heard him groan from the corner of Chesnut street. Here the Court adjourned till Thursday.

If such were the law in this flourishing State, a dozen State prisons would not contain the convicts for one year. Navat.—Commander Tattnall has been ordered to hold himself in readiness for the command of the sloop Saratoga. James G. Bennert, Es Tsee that there is much said about the one thousand dollars that was sent as a bribe not to hang Colt,— Now the question is, who can tell whether the She- riff intended to let the fime pass by or not, in bea his duty by hanging Colt? No one can tell. It is certain that there was very great indifference in the matter, and it does appear that there was uncalled for postponement to the latest period, for some pur- ee unknown to the public.

I then went to Lougee’s office; saw Lougee lying on the fioor—saw his shirt and clothes—they were bloody. Saw blood in the office, on railing near bottom; s1w tome blood on a paper behind the counter that he kept his account on; they were behind screen, I went to Mr. Lougee’s house. I didn’ see him die; saw him after death. I don’t know how long after the dirk was thrown that it was picked up. (Mr Porter here asked what family Mr. Lougee had. Mr. Reed objected, and the question was overruled.) It was. or 6 yards from where q was standing to where the dirk was picked up. Idon’t know what was done with dirk when picked up. bow hear the man who ran down Chesnut’street say any thing. Cross Examined.—He was right opposite our Chesnut street door, the mortar was opposite Mr. Taylor's window; ‘Tay lor’s is next door to Musgrave’s; I didn’t remark the floor in Mr. Lougee’s office. 5 By Juror.—1 ’t know what he threw till it struck the pavement; thenotes were not scattered.

Here Mr. Dallas asked if Commonwealth had further for if they had not, the defendant was evidence as to willing it should go to the jury, but’ if there was other evidence on this point, it ought all to be given before the dirk is given in evidence. The Attorney General said there was other evidence. It was therefore withdrawn for the present.] j After I spoke to Lougee he turned round and went in without speaking. I asked him what was the matter; he made no reply; he was standing by a stone step in front of door. Tuomas Teese called, but did not answer. At the last account the Court was still in session. Philadelphia. [Correspondence of the Herald.] Purvapevpnia, Dec. 1, 1842. Gen. James Gorpon Bennett— Dear Sin— This morning’s papers contain another letter of Mr. Biddle, which I do not like as much as the pre- ceding ones, and which, in fact, I almost consider a tailure. He proposes a system of retrenchment equal to $520 299 98 per annum, by which the ex- penditures will be reduced to $292,095 95, instead of $817,395 93; leaving from its present income, which is $620,487 89, a balance equal to $328,341 94. Now, all this looks well on paper, and appears to be proved quod erat demonstrandum, with figures ; but the science of government, as one of the best writers on government observed, is not ‘a problem et arithmetic.” In politics, men have, in addition to the constant principles of statesmanship, which will do very well in the abstract, to deal with those variable quantities called men ; so that if Mr. Bid- dle do not succeed in proposing to the people of -Pennsylvania, and their chosen legislators, some more palatable remedy than that contained in his Letter No. 4, I am afraid he will have wasted both time and labor—and what is infinitely worse, fur- nished, at least indirectly, an argument, however feeble, for repudiation. ; If the opinion should gain ground that Pennsyl- vania cannot pay even the interest of her debt, without reducing the pay and mileage of the mem- bers of the legislature, ubolishing the gratuities granted for the relief of officers and soldiers of the revolutionary war, destraying our asylums for or- phans and the blind, abolishing our system of com- mon schools, and sink the State again into igno! and darkness, stop all grants to seminaries, acade- mies, and colleges, putdown the house of refuge, and refuse to pay damages for loss of Property oc. casioned by the public works, then I am truly afraid Mr. B.’s proposition to come back to honesty and economy, will be considered as utopian. If any of these charges are to be effected for better or worse, as the case may be, they are to be made by the Le- islature; but as well might you,on the eve of a bat- tle, acquaint your soldiers that you mean to reduce their pay to one-third, by way of inspiring them with courage, as to commence reform with dimi- nishing the pay af members. What was Mr. B thinking of when he penned No. 4 trom Andalusia? He must have thought of the ancient Common- wealth, and of the virtus militaris of the Romans; but that won’t do in our times, and he has been dabbling in finance too long to plead ignorance in tas the sesion of O ress approaches, the poli s the ion of ony i- ticians begin to bestir themselves. "The irien f Mr. Clay are evidently ¢: ed in maturing some plan for placing the gallant old war horse fairly on the turf. They are as zealous and enthusiastic as ever, and the late reverses seem in no wise to have dampened their ardor or clouded their prospects. Really these gentlemen, I mean the honest and dis- interested friends of the glorious old Kentuckian, merit success. They are worthy of Clay, and he worthy of such adherents. All that money and la- bor can do will be accomplished. Whether they will avail, can be better told after the democrais settle down on their candidate, if ever ae do, which is certainly just now somewhat doubtful. _ The Custom house here, like that of your city, appears to be a never-ending topic of comment. ‘here has been quite a flare up here, ’tis said, in consequence of the neglect of duty on the part of Colonel Sherburne, a measurer. As far as I can glean the facts, they are these:—He is ce an intimate friend and associate of Colonel Watmough, and havi been in the army, seems to have thought that excise offices werd mere sinecures. At least it is alleged he is inva- riably called off, at an hour’s notice, to New York or Washington, when his turn comes to take ofa vessel. Atthis his associates have grown res- tive, and have refused any longer to his duties, and have reported him to the ¢ This ch not to pe eee at. cons a, ers will remem! the Colonel as person * on a certain occasion, “played such fantastic tricks® at ie New aoe Navy Yard. on en the Genter as his reasons for accepting .

The interesting drama of the ‘‘Mariner’s Dream,” and the favorite farce of “A Match in the Dark,” in which Mrs. Hoskins also makes her first appearance, are likewise offered, together with a variety of other entertainments, which must secure a full house. Cicus.—The beautiful equestrianism, and classic Olympic games, as they are exhibited in the Amphithea- treof the Republic, Bowery, deserve richly the extrava- gant patronage lavished upon this favorite resort. As theatricals decline, the elegant and exhilarating exhibi- tions givenin the arena, rise in proportion. Perhaps at no period of our national history, has the performances of the Amphitheatre stood in so elevated a position as at the present time. While the best comedians at the principal theatres are reduced to the wretched stipend of only $10 or $12 a week, equestrians are receiving ® regular salary of $20, $30, and from that to $50 per week.
