Call, see end buy. Caution to the Public, Within the last few di some persons have issued from an office somewhere in Nassau street,a small penny paper, under the title of Evenino Heaato, and occasionally Ex. rea Wemaxps, resembling that of the heading generally of the New Youx Heaacp published by the subscriber. We have received many complaints from persons who have been deceived by the resemblance, supposing these sheets and extras to have come from the office of this jour- nal. This is to give notice, therefore,to Postmasters,Post Offi- ces, and to the public generally, that, in order to prevent mistakes, deception and freud, it is necessary to recollect the exact title of our journal, which is “Tar New You Henan,” published by James Goxpon Bennett, at the North West corner of Nassau and Fulton street. We issue a morning andan evening edition, and occasionally extras—but these are altogether distinct and different from the cent sheet or extras assuming the same name, and pur- porting to come from another part ef the same street.— Forewarned is forearmed. JAMES GORDON BENNETT, Paoraixton or tHe New Yorx Henacv, North West corner of Nassau and Fulton streets. New Yorx, 24th Feb., 1843. Tue Apmimtstration or Justice—axp THE Re- PORTS oF THE Newsraren Press.—A_ very interest- ing scene took place yesterday in the Court of Ses- sions, in relation to the reports of the proceedings of that Court, which appear in the daily newspaper prees. It will be found in another column. Here is another instance of the accuracy and care with which all the reports of the Herald are prepared, as contrasted with the error, carelessness, inefficiency, and blunders of our cotemporaries The superior reputation of the Herald, in this re- spect, has arisen from the comprehensive and liberal system we were the first to introduce into the news- paper press ofthis country. In this system we have brought anto action the principle of a “ division of labor” ona large and expensive scale. The errors, blunders, and meagreness of other journals arise from penury and incapacity. One reporter is en. gaged to furnish, for a few dollars a week, a report for several journals, and to attend to several courts or public meetings. It is utterly impossible that any public proceedings can be theroughly reported by such ajobbing, loafer system—hence the high repu- tation of the Herald, which employs one, two, and sometimes three or four competent reporters to at- tend any important trial,or public assembly of much interest, Yet, in syite of the vast industry, superiority, and care with which every department of this journal is prepared and written, so great is the jealousy and hate of eur rivals,that all sorts of intrigues have been for years set on foot to embarrass and injure our business, our motives, and our character. In the notorious Haggerty case, we were unjustly fined $500, merely for publishing a “John” for a “‘James” —an error which was corrected next day. Inthe equally famous Noah libel, which was a mere jeu desprit, we were indicted at the instigation of that miserable political tool, and fined $350, besides the infliction of a homily from Judge Kent, which had nothing to do with our case, but much to do with the man inthe moon. In the Dey libel also, we were indicted for publishing a correct abstract of a bank- rupt case, and for calling the bankrupt himself a ‘“‘man of respectability and a christian,” and still, strange to relate, six of the jurors were for convict- ing us, because, as their leader said, ‘‘ the Herald is against the credit system.” And yet, when we are assailed with all sorts of falsehood— and the innocent branches of our family, down to the very babe, are libelled in such a gross and atrocious manner that the whole community stand aghast in horror and astonishment, courts, jurors, judges, and the whole honorable and digni- fied administration of justice, stand idly by and look on with perfect repose of face and conscience. Is this proteeting and preserving the liberty and dig- nity of the press? Neither in London, nor in Paris, the capitals ot two monarchies, where the press ought to be less free than in a republic, would such malicious things be tolerated by an honest public opinion. We shall give startling instances of this by and by. SELF-ConvicTED MISREPRESENTATION.—The “Tri- bane” sometimes perpetrates very sublime pieces of impudence. But yesterday it ‘* out-Heroded He- rod.” Witness the following paragraph :— “The Herald habitually distorts the testimony taken be- fore the Court Martial, in order evitertly to prejudice the case of Capt. McKenzie. That which appears to bear against him is set forth in italics and small capitals, inci. dental remarks, justifying or discrediting witnesses are thrown in, anda false coloring is given to the whole in- vestigation, by the partial manner in which it is reported. This is basely unjust, and should be stopped. ” The allegatio. that we have “ distorted the testi- mony” in the case is “ basely” false. We have ta- ken especial pains to have the proceedings of the Court Martial fully, accurately an mpartially re- ported, and all! who have attendeded as auditors, the Judge Advocate and the members of the Court, must admit that we have succeeded in doing so.— In no instance has our reporter been guilty of mis- representation. He has given with perfect and lite- ralaccuracy the questions put to the witnesses, and their answers. The consistency,and rectitude,and impartiality of the “ Tribune,” will, however, be best elucidated by a specimen of the style in which its reports of the proceedings of the Court Martial are given. Let us then take the following extract from the report of the testimony of the boy English, as given in the “ Tribune” of yesterday : “His testimony now was the ‘same’ as he gaveon that oc- casion (the Court of rey but he could not on this oc casion recognise either of the papers as being the one he lad seen in Mr. Spencer’s hand,or at the Court of Enquiry in the cabin of the North Carolina. The paper, he said, ‘on those occasions, was much yellower than either of those shown him now “Note —This difference in the color isprobably only acci- and owing t the Chapel in whieh the Conrt wow sits Il lighted apartmen', with the walls white- cabin of the North Carolina in which th Court of Enq indifferently lighted, and the boll heads sorroundi the farnicure in it, are ail of dark vegany, which throws a gloom throush the apariment, would naturally make the paper appear darker than i Was in reality This is really cool But this is the age of brass We add not a word of comment on the contrast between the character of our reports and those of ‘he consistent stickler for impartiality and justice. Tue Lisrenanp Witt. Case.—The interest ex- cited by the proceedings in this case is extraordina- ry. The Court room was crowded to excess during the whole of yesterday. Mr. O'Connor's speech Tae Somers Cass—Baccinc on Paincirue —Honor or tux Ammrican Fiac.—This case is beginning to acquire a fresh interest— partly from the fresh facts coming out—and partly from the opinions of the English press, which ere now about coming back, to mix with public opinion here. Yesterday, in the report of the Court Mar- tial, it will be seen that Commander McKenzie justifies his tying up the apprentices in stout canvas bags, on the ground of keeping them warm and comfortable. This is pretty nearly correct in all such cases. When a sportsman goes out to shoot mutinous canvas back ducks on the Potomac, he generally bags his game for alike reason. So also on Long Island, when men go out shooting insubor- { dinate partridges, or unruly snipe, stout bags are used for a similar purpose. All perfectly right, and precedent for it too. Among other new points, is one recently set up by Commander McKenzie, in reference to the honor of the American flag. A word.on this point. The Journal of Commerce and the American quote young Perry’s answer to the question respect- ing the ability of the Commander of the Somers to take her into St. Thomas, with approbation, as if it furmished an excuse for his conduct. Perry says that the honor of the flag forbade seeking protection elsewhere than from the ship herself. Now, in the first place, the question has nothing to do with pro- tection. It the vessel could have been brought into St. Thomas or any other island, the prisoners could have been landed there, or placed in the charge of the U. S. Consul, or sent home in a merchant vessel. The same disposition could have been made of the suspected part of the crew, and the prisoners retained in irons, if the ‘honor of the flag” re- quired it. But, is a regard to the “honor of the flag” to justify the hanging of three human beings, unarmed, in irons, without trial and without the authority of law ? Tribunals are created in this country, to take care of the honor of the country and of the flag, and at the same time to preserve tke rights of its citizens. No authority has been given to any Com- mander to hang men at his will and pleasure, for the “honor of the flag” of his country. The idea is & most pernicious one. It is the essence of Lynch law—the very personification of ‘insolence in of- fice” —and if itbe not repudiated,condemned,and ut- terly extirpated by the Court Martial now in session, the glorious discipline of the Navy will be condem- ned by the American people as an intolerable tyran ny. We suppose, after this mode of justification, that Captain McKenzie will say that the honor of the American flag also required that several young American citizens should be tied up in sacks by the neck, in order to prevent a mutiny. We wonder thet an additional order was not given to sing a psalm to heaven, and give cheers to the banner of the Cross, for the protection of the armed Com- mander and officers, from those terrible boys tied up in the awful sacks. Verily, verily, the tragedy of the Somers discloses a tissue of barbarity, injustice, homicide, effrontery, insolence, cowardice, farce and folly, that seems unparalleled in the history of human nature. Bririsn Consut in New Yorx.—We learn that Anthony Barclay, Esq., has received his commis- sien, by the last steamer from England, of his ap- peintment as British Consul of this port. This removes at once the doubt entertained that the abo- litionists of England?had prevailed on his govern- ment to revoke his appointment. The intelligence will give great satisfaction to his friends, and the whole commercial community of New York, both American and foreign. City Intelligence: Inrergstine Arrest or Enxciisn Burotars.— Those energetic officers Bird, Tompkins and Brown, of the Upper Police, have succeeded in arresting two burglars whose dexterity and daring in their business have rarely, if ever beenequalled. One is a young English burglar, aged only 18 years,but who in thet short space of time has been known to the police of this city and London, by the numerous names of Liverpool Bill, alias Roff, alias James and William Murphy, alias Ting, &c. &c. The other, his partner, also arrested, 1s known as Caleb Nichols, alias Conk, brother of Gus Nichols, the burglar. On the 2d instant, between the early hours of 6 and7 o’clock in the evening, these desperadoes stole two bolts from a butcher's cart in Washington street, and with them forced eff the lock from the cellar door of the extensive flour store of James D. Board, 210 Washington street. They then made an entrance into the counting house above,and with an oyster knife broke open a desk, and carried off $400 in gold and silver coin, and $40 in bank notes. ‘In Saturday following they went to Williamsburgh, (which has become a great resort for thieves an burglars who prey upen the property of our citizens,) and there divided the proceeds. In sharing the money abag marked No. 10, that was in the desk, and a French crown and pistareen, among other coin, fell to the lot ef Nichols, who buried a portion of itin this bag in an open lot near the Wallabout. Imme. diately after the burglary, they hired two rooms in Laurens street, between Grand and Canal, and com- menced a show in the way of extravagance, with their ill gotten funds, that attracted the attention of the above named officers. A few days since, Ni- chols, in company with a person residing in Brook- lyn, visited the spot where the money was buried, and the former romoved the coin and left the bag in the ground. This information was communi- cated to the officers,and they*obtained'posseesion of the bag. A wach was then kept on the two larks, and several peculiar pieces of the money stolen were recovered at places where they had passed them. The result was that they were arrested and the furniture in the room they had rented, (which they have confessed was purchased with the stolen money) was forwarded to the police offiee for the benefit of Mr. Board, if the rogues are convicted. They have partially confessed the burglary,and stand fully committed for trial. The officers de- serve much credit for this arrest, as they have thus relieved the community from the depredations of two resolute and determined midnight robbers. Anorurr Extensive Mipnicut Roppery.—An old convict, named Edward Hales, who has been twice in State prison, and Augustus Nichols, brother of Caleb, the burglar, have been fully committed at the Upper Police Office, on a charge of commitung an extensive burglary of a daring character. On the night of the 18th of last month, the extensive clothing store of John Major, 232 Canal street, cor- ner of Renwick, was entered by burglars, and clothes and clothing, valued at $234, stolen from the premises. The above named burglars being suspect ed, they were watched, and a quantity of the stolen clothing was found in the house of Luke Layden, in Cross street, to whom they had sold it. A vest stolen from the store was found in the trunk of Hales when he was arrested, and a pawn ticket from Abra- ham’s office, on which had been pawned a Coat, was also taken from the premises. It appears that the effected the robbery by first breaking off a padloc from a coal box in front of a grocery near the cloth- ing store. Inte this box the articles were placed as they were brought from the store in arm fulls, and removed when they had succeeded in carrying off all thatthey considered necessary for their purposes. was a very powerful effort. His narrative of the ca- reer of the “ jocose gentleman,” as Mr. Alexander L. Stewart was styled by the counsel for the de- fence, was peculiarly happy. Humor, sarcasm and paths, were mingled in it with the greatest effect, and it wae with difficulty that the feelings of the au- ditory were restrained within the bouods of that de- corum which the dignity of the Court demanded Mr. O'Conner will finish his speech this forenoon, and we will isswe a full report of it in to-morrow’s paper It willcontain a great amount of curious and interesting matter. Tw Bowsry Riowe Scnoon.—A correspondent takes us to task for neglecting to mention the name of Disbrow, in connection with the Bowery Riding School. No error whatever. Mr. Davie is the per son who manages the establishment, and manages it with skilland tact. Mr. Disbrow may be inte- rested in the profits, but we believe he is better ac- quainted with the make, worth, and manufacture of coffins, than with the witchery of horsemanship, or the qualities of horse flesh. Both are highly re- spectable in their several lines be ind Disbrow among coffins ; Davie among os They are both fully committed. Tue Somers Boys.—Additional testimony was heard before the Recorder yesterday on the writ of habeas corpus, compelling the United States autho- Tities to show cause why they hold these apprenti- ces inconfinement, The argument of counsel will be heard before the Recorder, at his office, this morning, and a decision will probably be given to- morrow. Nimto’s Seconn Concert D' Hiver.—Don’t for: get that the second concert comes off to-night at Niblo’ loon—c»mprising Mrs Sutton, De Begnis, Martini, and the whole German Band. We hear much said of Martini’s rich and beautiful voice, A little more practice, confidence, and esprit, would make him quite a favorite with the public. Wexcn’s Oymric Cmevs.—Mr. Gossin had a splendid benefit last evening. The house was full to overflowing, and Gossin himself was never be- fore so rich in jokes, repartee, wit, and originality. The audience appeared highly delighted, and doubt- lee many a side ached with laughter curing the evening. The usual array of attractions is offered to-night, and we anticipate another crowded house. Before Judge Oakley. Tue Gaeat Lurenany Wiis Case. Fen. 23.—Fi jay of rgument,and 10th of the case. This being the day set! apart for commencing the argu: ments inthis case, the curiosity and interest which have been excited, brought togetber a dente erowd of gentle- men (with even a few ladies) around the door to the court coom for some time be'ore it was opened. And no sooner was it thrown open, than it was filled to excess and over flowing. Among the audience, which wasof an'unusually eleva ted and intellectual character, there were some 50 or 60 ladies present, to add the fascinations of their Charms, and the grace of their personsto the imposing scene. Many distinguished mbers of the Bar were also present, together with a e number of other gentlemen, whom curivsity or interest had brought together. Before Mr. Hall began peech, Gen. SANrorb stated that he should now readthe paper which had been intro duced to the jury by the other side, but which had not yet been read. No objections being made, he read the paper. It pene to contain Robert Stewart’s view of the case in litigation, so far as the division and di ition of the Lispenard property was concerned—together with some remarks upoa the character and position of Alice Lispe- nard. This paper having been read tothe jury, Judge Oakl inquired if the Counsel were ready to proceed with their arguments, Axcuments or Counsry. The Hon. Wits Hatt then rose, and in substance ad- dressed thejary follows :— J owe an apology to the Court and to the Jury, for en- tering into a case of such magnitude end importance in the midst of it, (Mr. Hall was not present at the com- mencementof the trial} especially when I see arrayed against v5 Filch a weight power ot legal talent, as are ow present to oppose us. Nor should I be able to pro- ceed in the case, were it not for the profound conacious- ness which I feel of the right and justice of our case ‘The whole point of the great question before y ou, is, as to the mental capacity of Alice Lispenard to mete awill, I shall pass by the deed of 1808, and wall your attention par- ticularly, while I have the honor to address you, to the subject of the will. Here Mr. Hall proceeded to give some portions of the history of the case in its passage from the Surrogate up to the Court of Errors, and also read from the Cae of Senator Verplanck, as recorded in 26 Wendall He then remarked that the whole question may bethus stated :—First, Did Alice Lispenard compre- hend and consent to the act of the will? Was it a reasonable and proper act? How should she have dis- of her property 7 What will would a sane person ave made under her circumstances ? (Here Chief Justice Jones with infinite difficulty made his way throagh the door and to the Judge’s bench. Ano- ther branch of the Court was to be held in the con- tines room, if ajury could be repeal of another (4 were calledover, but only one juror an- swered. The Judge, however, retired to the adjacent room, to do the best he could towards raising a jary, to brie bry disappciniment of all present, because they de- sired the folding dours to be opened and the two roomsto bethrown intoone. Thus at the very opening of the Court, were both ingress and egress rendered almost to- tally Ereeoenble: After some delay, the argument was re- sumed. Mr. Haut took the ground that this was a just and righteous will, and proceeded to read to the jury a large number of opinions from various writers, pertinent to the case; from all which, be came to, the conclusion, that the act of the will stood in the defendant's favor. The second great point is as to the exe- cution of the will. The only question is as to her capacity at the very moment of executing the will— not what her capacity was at an early period of her life, or indeed any other period of her life, save at the moment of making the will. To establish her testamentary capa- city at this point of her life, Mr. Hall read the testimony of Drs, Nelson and Hunter, and commented thereon.— Was such evidence as is given by these gentlemen to be overborne by the testimony of a mo} of witnesses, whose evidence is of very doubtful character, who give mere ru- mor and report, and who at best are but mere outside testi- mony? Here Mr. H. went into the subject as laid down in the books, and made some comments upon the evidence bearing on this second great point of thecase. Butif, in the next place, they resort to collateral evidence to d prove her testamentary capacity, then they must prove either a total absence of sense, or great mental weakness led with fraud or imposition. Mr. Hall here adduced re books, relative to this point. ny strong, point found in hei will, which speaks of the fact that “it Aad pleased God to give his daughter Alice sueh mental imbecility as to render her incapable of managing or taking care of proper- ty,” and he therefore gave her no portion of his estate, but an annuity of $500 per annum Mr. Hall admitted that this wasa very strong point. But he argued that there ‘was no congenital or connate imbecility of mind. In early youth her mind was active and lively as other chil- dren of her age. The@ubsequent weakness of mind was accidental. And then again, was there no family pride on the part ef the father in making this dispos of his property? Was shenot awkw: a gtinly inher appearance? And was she such a person as a proud father would wish to have placed in a situa'ion which might cast a stain upon his family escutcheon? But he did grant her $500 per annum, and the money was to begiven to her, for her alone to disposeof it. Doesthis look as if her father thought her incapable of managin; roperty? But admittmg all this to true as set fort! in the father’: will, we shall still maintain that this clause injAnthony Lispenard’s will does not invalidate the will of his daughter Alice. We shall claim that it does not require the same degree of capacity to make a will, as it does to manage property; and that Alice did sufficient capacity—small though we it it to ave been—to make a will. On this point, M i} duced authorities from the books. The authorities do not require quantity of mind, but quality. Ifthe quality be good and sound, the law allows a mere modicum of mind to be capable of making a will. Mr. Hall here proposed, though reluctantly, to enter into this mass of testimony — collate and examine it. But he said he should first lay down a new plain rules of law by which the evidence must be examined. First,then, the law presumed sanity, the capacity to be good ; and, therefore, the burden of proof lies on the other side. And if there be a doubt as to the matter of testimentary capacity, then the lew requires ubt to be given in favorof sanity. And the rule of law is that the opinion of witnesses, uniess they be medi- cal men, areof no weight. Anether rule is, that hearsay, mere rumor. are of the'slightest possible weight. Another is that one affirmative tact outweighs any number of nega- tive facte. wo witnesses in favor of sanit: inst it. The wise man is ise ; but the fool is never wise An idiot is utterly incapable of a single act of wisdom ; and if you ingle witness, one single act ot wisdom, you it a host of acts of cas: Another rule is that if you can find any other mode, in insanity of ac- —— for alleged acts of idiocy, the law requires you to do so, Mr. Hall here proceeded to classify the witnesses for the plaintiffs, and to comment at ength and individually upon the nature of their evidence.’ As we have given the testi- mony ofall the witnesses so fully, we deem it unnecessary to repeat it again- {In the courae of this examination,the folding doors were opened, and the two court rooms thrown tozether, to the very great relief and accommodation of the dense jam ot people, who were anxious to catch the sound of Mr. Hall’s voice. In concluding this branch‘of the argument, Mr. Hall slleged that every thing thatfhad been proved by the plaintiff 'y accounted for in Alic early education—her intem r ungainly manners. And if the Jury could in this way a count for her acts, then the law required them to do so ; and they were not at liberty to assign idiocy inexplanation of hereonduct. The law me, Before examining the evidence for the defence, Mr. Hall asked if we were to rest here, have the plaintiffs made out their case? And here he adduced several legal authori ties. Hethen cn to examine minutely individually, and at great length, the testimony for the defence, trom which he deduced the opinion that Alice had mind—hed intellect —had memory—had reasoning pow short, had testamentary capacity. AFTERNOON Session. Mr. Hat resumed his argument with some Sheeant remarks upon some of the weak features aud tender points of Alice’s character, On the whole, he claimed that Alice had sufficient mind to make a will. The next question was, whether any unduc influence had been exercised upon the mind of Alive. He came to the conclusion that the only influence exerted upon her was that of kindness and commisseration for the misfor- tune which God had placed upon her. He then made an appeal to the Jury if it would be right for them to cnt off the last resource of the weak minded and unfortunate ik Thenames e plaintiffs had slept upon their rights for thirty years, and allowed the parties upon the other side to goon d.sposing of the pro- rty, and granting titles, all of which will be unsettled if their verdict should be against the will. At about six o’clock in the evening, Mr. Hall concluded his speech, which occupied altogether about Cuances O'Conner, ae then rose and Jury for the plaintiff. He spoke from near 6 o'clock, until the adjournment of the Court, at a quarter to ten clock, and will finish his speech this forenoon. We shal give the whole of it in to morrow’s paper. The Court room was crowded to excess ;a very great number of ladies, whose attention was unrelaxed during the whole day, were present. Deatu or Jupok Tuacter.—Died, in Boston, on the 2st instant, Peter Oxenbridge Thacher, Judge of the Municipal Vourt of the Countv of Suffolk, aged 66 years. He was in Court on Saturday last, discharging his duties; although in the opinion of his family physician, Dr. Randall, the state of his health from;rheumatic affection of the limbs, was such as to have required an entire cessation from public duties. The immediate cause of his death, howev- er, was more a general decay of the vital powers, than any particular disease, A Sap Acctpent occurred on the Portsmouth and Roanake Railroad, near Wilmington, N. C., last Sunday, by which B. W. Hall, Eeq., of Baltimore, was killed, and nine seriously wounded. One of them, a lady, had her leg broken in two pla- ces, and is not expected to survive. Mr. Trimble, of the Baltimore and Philadelphia Railroad, was one of the wounded. Weare not informed of the names of the others. Cuatuam Treatre.—Mr. Blaike, a great favorite with the New York public, takes a benefit this eve- ning, and a combination of rare novelties is pre- sented for the occasion. “ Billy Barlow,” a genigs ot fun and oddity, makes his first appearance for a number of years, and will deliver, in his own pecu, liar way, an account of his adventures in the various courts of Earope—the Chinese War—Congrese, in which Arnold’s famous bill, “648,” performs con- sprenous part, de. &e.

The testimony of Mrs, Miller, that was taken down at the examination on Sunday, was read, and after some slight amendments had been made, was signed by her.

Mr. J. he deemed it important, to show the out- rageous offence of this piece of brutality on an innocent y @ person bearing the title of said Mr. J., commits any offence the circumstances connected with the He therefore thought that the peculiar iRgravation of the offence ought to be shown, so that if Miller was allowed to give bail, the bail shou!d be regu- lated according to the greviousness of the offence. He then stated what he expected to preve by a further examination. After some further remarks, the examinasion was resumed, and was as follows :— Mrs. Mincen—I was leew | in the front parlor of Mrs Sealy ’s house on the day of the abijuction, where I was sayings Mrs. Sealy, the lundiady, was with me; Brown entered, followed by C. F. Miller; I instantly jumped up and screamed; Mrs. Sealy ran to me, and took me in her arms; Miller told her to go sey or he would knock her (Sealy) down; Miller then put his arms round my waist, and commenced dragging me towards the door; Mrs. Senly pasted him, and reached the stairs before us; she screamed for assistance; she was then knocked down by Miller, I then implored the aid of two men who belonged to he house, butt! ey gaye me none; | wasthen carried across the roed to the {igs es screaming all the way ; this was between 11 and 12 inthe morning; I was held ou one side of the carriage by Miller, to that! could not stir without the most violent struggles; when he ordered the carriage to stopto have the top raised, I attempted to throw myself‘out, but was pulled back with great violence by Miller. Miller and the driver then attempted to put the cloak and hood upon me; I told the driver to touch me at his peril, and he stopped; Miller then attempted to do it alone; I succeeded in throwing it out of the carriage; it was then got, but no attempt wasmade'o putiton. After riding some distance (4 or 5 miles trom Stamford) Mr. Weed got in. 1 implored him to have pity on me andtake me back It had no effect. I then screamed, and attempted to push him out of the car- raige. He then ordered the driver to stop, and got out.— I then endeavored to persuade the driver to have pity on me, and he spoke very insultingly tome. M. told him if he did not ‘drive onhe’d puta bulletthrough him. M. had two pistols in his pockets and two large pistols in the front of the carriage. Brown then rede up to the carriage, and I endeavored to persuade him to take me to a place of satety, telling him 1 would pay him any price ifhe would do so. Brown replied thet he was’ bought by my money, and that he should Mi ler. I then threaten: ed him, and teld him it was against the law. Miller told him to fear nothing, that he would see him safe through every thing, and told me that [ was in his power ; that the whole road was bribed, and that every one was on his side. Ithen asked him why he wished to take me, after at- Sethe ay characte! 3 had; that I should think he would be ashame! to take a woman after making the ac- cusations hehad. Hethen said that what he had said was nothing to what he should say. That there wasa Mr. Bowton in New York who was a great coward, at whom he had presented a pistol, and said that he had intimidated i that he would swear to any thing, and that my er would be blackened in ry way—that he would prove that I had been with him (Mr. Bowton) fer wholedays. He also threatened that he would accuse me of being familiar with two other gentlemen of the names of Valentine and Dwight ; but that if I would live with him (Miller) I should escape ail persecution: ca I told him I would not if I could get re, I thought I should, until we had Hor Jem bridge; he then told me that he hed the and my family should game in his own hands, and that suffer; all this time the coachman braced back al me in order to screen me from sight. Mr. Miller did not seem to be alarmed, except on passing Westchester, when he told the driver to drive fast through that d—d infected re- gion. I screamed and struggted almost all the way to Harlem bridge ; I could not have screamed longer, had there been any hope, as I was entirely exhausted. By my struggles, my dress and lacings were burst, as well as my shoes, all the combs and pins of my hair were lost, and my hair wavalldown.t! knew of a person hy the name of Low, when I was at Mrs. Weller’s. Miss Weller came up one day andtold Mr. Miller, that Mr. Low said, that he would fight for witness to the last drop of his blood. When at Mrs, Weller’s, I heard that thefconductorsof the rail- road had been bribed, and that he would stop at any place required; this intelligence was communicated to M., by his brother J. A. Miller, who said it had been done by Mr. Coles, and himself; M. said he had bribed the officers; the officer whose name was given. wes Smith. Mr. A. M C. Smutn,Police Officer ,hhere came into Court, The witness saidshe never saw him till yesterday, but had been told by M. thatthe person bri was the same onethat had been employed by her family to search for her. Mr. A.M. C. Smith then departed about his busi- nest, yey much astonished at the idea of his having been bribed without his knowledge. Mrs. M. continued her testimony—Aftere arriving at Norfolk I was told by Miller that if I would go withhim tothe West Indies, ] should return immediately to my friends—I then told him I would go, a8 I saw no other way ot returning to my family. 1 heard there that M. had be- ted with Lieut. Porter, and had told him the story of the abductio: nd thet P. tendered to him the use of the U. 8. frigate Pennsylvania for his protec- tion. I was induced to believe this assertion. M. told me he would draw up astatement of the facts, give themto ihe officers boarding in the bouse, and that if they decived | in my favor, I might return home; but if they decided in his, then I’ must go with him. { refused, because I be- lieved them to be all his friends. Shortly after Mr Coles told Mr. M. that he has told my story to the gentlemen of the house, and that they and the magistrates would pro- | tect me, and that { should not goto the West Indies | against = will. Coles told me that if 1 went, M. would | take me into the interior of the Island of Martinique, where I should be left without money,or friend: and probably never be able to return to my family. I then told M. 1 wonld mot go with him; that I was to remain at Norfolk or go to New York. under the protection of the officers. Such was the situs- tion of affairs when Mr. Miller arrived. When I told Mil- | lerthat 1 would not go, he said that I should ; that he had | those that would assist him ; he then consented to come back to New York affidavit was drawn up and I was told if Idid_not sign it | should never goto New York While at Norfolk Miller told me that hehad 12 ruffians armed to the teeth, and that there would be blood shed if 1 did net goto the West Indies. Mr. Coles said that he had asmuch ashecoald do to prevert Miller and his {father from rushing inand taking meofft by force. Before! con- sented to go with Miller’s father, a statement was drawn up and sizned by him in the presence of the officers, to the effect that he would see me eate to New York. I was induced to in consequence of a letter received from J. ‘A. Miller, (C. F's, brother,) to the effect that either my vrother or uncle would be at New York when I arrived. { then went on board the brig. Agentleman told J. A. Miller that if I died even anatu ral death, his son would be tried for murder, end he as an accessory. I was told that the clearance papers bad been stopped, and that the captain of the tow boat had been di- rected not to tow off the brig; the navul officers set up and watched all that night to prevent my being taken off by stealth. Miller had his pistols out, and set up all night. Before we started, a bond of $10,000 was given to Captain Green aa surety for my safe arrival at New York, and my immediate return to my friends. ‘At a quarter past 9 P.M. the Court adjourned till 4P.M. | to-morrow. As soon as the Court adjourned, Mrs. Miller, who had conducted herself with the greatest fortitude, fell {aintin, tothe floor. After such restoratives as were at hand hi been applied, injthe course of a few minutes, the lady re- vived, and was taken home in acarriage. The husband viewed tho proceedings with the most perfect indifference. The police were ordered to see that Mrs. M. got to her home in safety. Bankrupt List, SOUTHEHN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK.

Effect of Sic Robert Pe fice Bill—Death of the French Spoliation BAU for the Session—Mr, Adams’s tig Abo~ Ution Petition—Gen. Jackson’s Fine— Bantrupt Bill—Expunging Resolutions — Assumption of State Debts, &c, In the House to-day, almost as soon asthe journal was read, Mr. Apams again tried to introduce his big Latimer petition, brought in on Monday, pray- ing to absolve Massachusetts from assisting to catch runaway slaves, and of course it produced much ex- citement. " Mr. Apams (rising and coming out from behind petition, which completely hides him from the view of the membersin front of him)—I ask leave, Sir, to present a variety of petitions to this House. Mr. Wise—Mr Speaker— SrveraL Memuers (rising with warmth and ea- gerness)—Mr. Speaker, Mr. Speaker, Mr. Speak- er— 7 Mr. Matrory—Sir, I object to the reception of these petitions. ‘ i Mr. Apams—Sir, I move a suspension of the rules.

Mr. Matiory.—I call for the ayes and noes. They were not ordered. : Mr. Srantey.—Let the vote be postponed till we get the reports from Committees. SeveraL Vorces.—Agreed The reports were then called for. Mr. Brices reported the Bill relative to the ap- pointment of Assistant Postmasters by the Senate and President, and recommended that it should not Ls ae move, sir, to set apart next Monday to ioe pane other Bills reported upon from the Post ice Committee. Ayprews, (of K )—Will that include the Bill re- lating to private expresses onjmail routes? Brieas —It will. . H Anprews.—I am opposed to that bill, and I object to the resolution. £ Srverat Voices.—Good, Andrews; that’s right ; it’s an infamous Bill. ‘ z The resolution was then rejected. So in all pro- bability the Bill will not be taken up this Session. Mr. Lin offered a resolution calling on the Heads of Departments to give the House copies of all the contracts made for printing, binding, stationery, &c. and whose bids were accepted, in compliance with the law of 1842. Adopted. Mr. Penpieton called on the Secre of War to tell the House if Gen. Gaines’s salary had been reduced, and by whose order. Adopted. ‘ Mr. Stoxgxy reported a resolution that the Presi- sident cause a sword to be given to Gen. Clinch, worth $1000, for his services in Florida. Read twice and referred. i Mr. Apams moved to take up the French Spolia- tion Bill, and to close the debate on it at 2 0’clock too-morrow. Bi Saunpers—I move to lay ithe resolution on the table. Carried 89 to 80. So that bill 1s dead fer the ses ion. 4 The House then went into Committee of the hole. Mr. Apams—I now, sir, ask leave of the House to present several petitions. \ Loud cries of ‘No, no, no,” and great excite- ment. Several members _here rose up at the same time, and all cried out, “Mr. Speaker, Mr. Speaker, Mr. Speaker,” simultaneously. _ : louse did not go into Committee of the Whole immediately, in order to give members time to present reports. | F 5 Mr. C.

Several Orners—Mr. Speaker, I— is Speaxer—The House will come to order.

Creek (reads). “Resolved, That the President of the United States be requested to communicate to this House, if not in his opinion improper, whatever correspondence or communi- cation may have been received irom the British Govern- ment, repecting the President’s construction of the late British treaty concluded at Washington, as it concerns the right to visit American vessels.” ‘Cries of ‘‘ No—I object,” and ‘Go on, Inger- soll,” and great uproar and excitement, one member calling out in an under tone, ‘‘G—d d—n the Brit- ish, we'll whip ’em yet.”) ae Incersout—(waiving the newspaper in his hand, and cryingéout above the noise,)—Sir, I have Sir Robert Peel’s speech in my hand, and I wish the Clerk to read it. (Cries of “Read, read; no, no; go on; Order; let’s have the ch. Silence !’”’) Ixcersor...—In that speech he says, ‘* We have not waived one of the principles tor which Lord Ab- berdeen contended in 1841, whose despatch has remained unanswered for 14 months.” He says farther, that he is surprised at the claim now set up by the President of the United States. He also says, it 1s my duty, in the face of the House of Commons, to declare that the claim to the right of visitation has never beer relinquished ; on this sub- Ject, we haye made no concession whatever, and to those principles we adhere at this moment. In sign- ing the late treaty with the United States, we have abandoned no right of visitation. We did not un- derstand from the United States that they entered into that treaty with a mgagement from us to abandon the right of visitation. We did not ac- cept the detachment of a naval force to the Coast of Africa as an equivalent for any right which we claimed. We have not abandoned our claims to that right of vig.tation in the slightest degree, nor did it ever make part of our intention todoso. We have not contented ourselves with leaving the fact to become known by a declaration in this House ; but since the appearance of the President’s mes- sage. we have taken an opportunity of intimating to the United States the construction we place on the treaty.” This is Sir Robert Peel’s language in the House of Commons, and it was saluted with cheers from both sides of the House. And he particularly says that he wishes France to take notice that they have given up no right. Here there was great excitement and uproar, and the members began abusing the British pretty se- verely ; and some said, ‘“‘D—n them, let em_con- strue the Treaty one ral and we'll construe it an- other; and then we shal have to fight about it after all.” In the midst of this uproar, Mr. Ingersoll threw the English newspaper on the Clerk's desk, walked up the aisle, with many members of beth parties around him. Mr. Yorxe—] move that the House meet at 10 o’clock hereafter. Cries of “* No no, out of order.” Mr. Apams—I now ask leave, sir, to present seve- ral petitions® : Cries of “No, no~oh! let him get rid of the d—d old smut machine.” (Great excitement’ Sreaxer—The gentleman asks leave of the House pe a several petitions which he holds in his and.

One of the members has also written the following lines upon it:— A New Parxnan Gun, A new contrivance, made to kill, Fvincing much of wit and skill, Set up with awful port and glare ‘To blow this Congress all to air.

Wisg.—Sir, I withdraw my objection. The resolution was then adopted ! The House then went into Committee of the Whole. Mr. Cusuine moved to take up effect the late treaty! This was _The Committee then considered the following bills, and they were finally reported to the House, read a third time and passed :— The fortification appropriation bill; @ The billto fulfil the treaties with the Indians ; pgsivte carry into an ‘The Navy Pension Appropriation Bill. Phe Harbor Bill was discussed Mr. Barnarp opposed it, because so much money had already been expended on the West, whilst New York State could scarce get a dollar ior improving the Hudson River, or any other of her waters, ‘The Bill was not eat? i. The House then refused to agree with the amend- ment of the Senate, on the Army Bill, appointing 10 extra Cadets, besides one from each State and Be dd so a committee of conference was ap- pointed. _ The Bill {rom the Senate to refund Gen. Jack- son’s fine was read twice, and referred to the Com- mittee of the Whole. A message was then received from the President saying that Com, Jones, in taking Monterey had acted without orders, and had been recalled in con- sequence. You know that when I first stated this fact the other papers denied it, and so did Mr Wise in the House. But I was right. The House then Sdiourned, It has still to pass the Harbor Bill, General Appropriation Bill, Treaty Bill, Gen. Jackson’s fine &e, &c., and only 7 days todoall in. {n the Senate Mr. Walker’s resolutions first came upinorder They read thus :— Resolved, That the assumption of the debts of the States contracted by them separately and for local purposes, would be a palpable violation of the Constitution of the United States, a consolidation of all power in the Federal Government, and a final and total overthrow of the safety of the States. Resolved, That Congress, having no power to assume such debts, any act attempting such assumption would be utterly nul \d void ; that it would not be obligatory up- on the States, nor could the peopleof the States be law- fully required by Congress pay the debts so assumed ; nor could any taxes imposed by them for such purposes be collected ; and it would be the duty of a succeeding Congress to restore the supremacy of theConstitution by the entire repeal of the act of assumption. Mr. Bayar proposed to modify them, saying that Congress has no right to assume the State Debts, and that it would be highly injuriousto do so. _ Mr. Watxer—I wi.] not accept the modification. T wish to show that any kind of assumption of these debts is unconstitutional, and that foreign bond- holders have nothing to hope from this or any sub- rane Congress. | tr. TaLLManGE said that time was ‘valuable, and he moved to lay them on the table. Mr. Warxer—I shall consider that as a test vote. They were laid on the table by the following vote: Yeas—Messrs. Archer, Barrow, Bates, Bayard, Berrien, Choate, Clayton, Conrad, Crafts, Crittenden, Dayton, Evans, Graham, Henderson, Huntington, Kerr, Mangum, Merrick, Miller, Morehead, Phelps, Smith, of In; a, Sprazue, Tallmadge, Woodbridge—35. Nays—Messrs. Allen, Bagby, Benton, Buchanan, Cal- houn, Cuthbert, Fulton, King, Linn, McRoberts, Smith, of Connecticut, Sturgeon, Tappan, Walker, Williams, Wood- bury, Wright, Young—18. So you may see from all these movements, the great importance attuched te this matter, which is undoubtedly to form an element in the next Presi- dential contest. i The Billto Sprain a Minister to China, and the one to re-iesue Treasury Notes were read twice and referred. 2 Mr. Youna tried to get up the Bankrupt Repeat Bill. But that was made the special order for to- morrow. rade 8 ‘ The Navy Appropriation Bill was slightly amended, read a third time and paesed. ‘The rest part of the day was then taken up with with Bayara’s motion to expunge the Expunging Resolutions. He was willing to take the vote now. Mk. Benton.—I am willing to take it up after the Bankrupt Bill is disposed of. _ Mr. Bucnanan said he wished to speak on the subject. They had not time to discuss it this ‘8eBsI \* Mr. Agcuer—If the Whigs now expunge the Ex- penging resolutions, the other party will have the glory of reinstating them next session. (Laughter.) r. Buctanan—This Congress will soon expire, and it will be long before another Senate will meet here who will vote in favor of such resolutions as those {rom Delaware. The Senate then adjourned. ?
