A—No, air, not for some days; I heard no talk about Mr Spencer's fighting with Mr. Thompson; did not hear any talk of rescuing the prisoners. Jonas Humper, examined by the accused.—I was on Doard tl mers on her last cruize. Saw Spencer once ask Cromwell if he would like to have something to drink; he replied he would; on which Spencer went aft an beckoned to Cromwell, looking round at the same time, to see if the officer ofthe deck was looking. He taen ga Cromwell a cup, who drank its contents, and went for- ward. Cromwell was asked by Mr. Spencer if it was good. Cromwell said, yes. Another time I saw them sitting on the forehatch—when Mr. Spencer asked Cromwell what kind ofa Paice vessel he thought the brig would make. Cromweil said he thought she’d make a very good one, as she wasa fast sailer; but thet if he had any thing to do with hi e’d throw the launch overboard. 1 heard them on another occasion; when Mr, Rogers was ofticerof the deck, and gave orders to haul the lee braces, and square the alter yards, neither Cromwell nor Mr. Spencer seemed to take any notice of it. The order was repeated, and then they got up and attende! to it. Alter they had set down, he, Cromwell, eaid, “ he wished the yards and braces were allin hell” Mr. Spencer told him not to say that, for he'd have some fun in the brig yet ; then Spencer ssked for achew oftobacco, which he got, and went aft tater you ever heard Spencer speak ill of the cap. a A—Yes; I heard him say G—— d—— the commander. i—Have you heard any conversaation with Spencer and McKee’ A—Yes ; he askel McKee if he could cut out clothes. {The remainder of the conversation was fully reported in the Herald, at the time of the Court of Enquiry.) Q—Subsequent to the arrest of Spencer, did you see my noe peculiar about Willson, the sail maker’s mate ? —No, sir. Commander McKenzie here stated that as the mutineers of the Somers had been taken away and made martyrs of, and these boys were in consequence afraid to testify, they ought to be pr mised the protection of the Court. Jupar Apvocatr—Boy, are you afraid to testify 7 Boy, (bluntly )—No, 6i Junge Apvocate—Well, do you know the meaning of the word subsequently? Bor—Yes: before. It was then explained to him, and he said he had seen Willson with a dirk, and that he told witness not (o meddle with it, because it would cut his throat easy enough, and he should liketo put it into the hands of Spencer. At another time he had heard him curse the Commander for flogging him. Q. What was he flogged for? A. Striking a bay. Q. 1s Willson little or big ? A.

Before Recorder Tallmadge, Judge Lynch, and Alder. men Crolius and Jones, Fes. 24.—Trial of John Underhill—Third Day.—Tho trial of this young man for a rape committed on the per: son of the girl Ann Murphy, at the Broadway Cottage, on Saturday, December 34, was continued. District At- torney Waitina and Jonas B. Puiiirs, Esq. for prose- cution, and Davin Granam and James T. Baapy, Eeqrs., for defence. The order of the Court during this trial, under the sp cial superintendence of ‘ Old Hays,” has been unequal- ut the Tombs. At the commencement of proceedin, Esq, stated that the first witness the defenc Ue 3 upon the stand was Ann Murphy, whom they desired to ask afew questions. The District Arrtoaner objected, as the matter of identity of this girl was as important as that of the ac- cused, and bringing her into court at this point would place her before the witnesses for defencein snch a man- ner that they would be able to review her before being called upon to recognize her en the witness stand. Mr. Gaanam denied that any such intention existed on the part ofcounsel for defen:e—thoir object was alone to obtain answers to questions that had escaped the atten- tion ofhis associate during her cross-examination. The Distaict Atronney replied at length, denyin| that he had made any imputation against the motives o| the gentlemen, bnt contended that the admission of the testimony of the girl at this point of the trial, was impro- per, unless the defence would state on what particular point. they intended to examine her. Judge Lyxcu delivered the opinionof the Court. He said that ordinarily it was proper that witnesses should be recalled by either party in the case, but as the coun. sel for defence had in his opening entered into a full re. view of the testimony of the girl'Ann Murphy, the Court thought the ends of justice required that the coun sel for defence should state the general object of the questions which they intended to put to witness, when the Court would consider the point in question. The defence took exceptions to this opinion and deni- ed the right of the Court to insist as to the particular point to which they intended to question witness, The District Attorney sustained the Court, when Mr. Brapy rose and atated that under this decision the unsel for defence had better walk out of court and andontheir client, but they now asked, and desired time, to prepare a writ of habeas corpus to bring Ann Murphy into court. Mr. Warr! was about to reply, when the motion of Mr. Brady was withdrawn. Mr Granamthen off-red to call Ann Murphy for ination for the purpose of enquiring on points on which she had net been previously examined. Jadge Lyxcu delivered the opinion of the Court by defence might call the girl Ann Murphy as , but could not be permitted to produce her ination without first stating the points on nded to examine her. ted that the defeence would etate pri- vately to the Court, in presence of the District Attor ney the points to which they intended to examine the girl. Judge Lyxcu—Let the Counsel put it in writing. Mr. Brapy then asked that the girl might be brought in‘o Court. The District Arronney denied the right of defence to brin; er into Court at this point, end resisted the application with such force and feeling that concluding, a portion of the audience broke forth with applause by stamping of feet and clapping of hands. Mr.Granam rose under considerable excitement, and asked the Court to protect their own dignity and the rights of his client from such expressions of feeling — That such exhibitions were properly adapted to the rep- resentation of a drame, but in tho sanctuary of justice it jal and a contempt of the Court; ted could not preserve order un- der the direction Bench, it would be better to dis- band the Court atonce and abandon the mockery of its forms, if such indignities were to be repeated. The Recornen replied, that the Court had hereto fore expressed an opinion as to this interruption of proceedings by the sudience, and he hoped that the assemblage itself would see the necessity of a strict rence to to the injunctions of the Court on this point. That as American citizens they were bound themselves to protectthe dignity of the Court—that the Court wae the mere administrator of justice, and pub- lic opinion was necessary for its support—he therefore appealed tothe audience te protect the dignity of the Court Wa preservation of good order and thus prevent any violation of the regular course of proceedings Mr. Granam—Befere further proceeding, I ask the Court to direct that any ay who has been seen to commit the offenee complained of should bebrought be; fore the Bench and punished for contempt. The Count asked the question, but no person was ar- rested by the officers, andthe defence then called Tuomas B. Aviwann, who was sworn—I reside in Fifth street, but have no business now—I1 was in an in- telligence office in the Bowery, in December last be- tween Broome und Grand; I left it about a fortnight ago; the principal of the office was Daniel B. Cameron. Q.—De you see any woman in Court who applied to you fora situation? A.—No sit; [have been here during the trial, and saw a woman on the witness stand, but being behind the pillar Icoald not tell whether she wasthe woman or not; my impression is that she was the woman that applied to me fora place; I do not know her by the name of Ann Morphy. ‘The defence here asked that the girl Ann Murphy be brought into Court. The District Attorney objected. and after a conversa tionnl debate, the Court ordered the girl Ann Murphy Jo be brought in. Aww Mureny here came into court. Wrrsess continued—This gitl (pointing to Ann Mur- phy) applied to me for a place on the 24th of October in company with another woman. They gave their names ‘as Catharine Seabold and Mary Heany. They gave their ren ¢ at 115 Pitt street. ‘ [The book of the intelligence office, as kept by wit- neas, was here presented to the jury, and the names found registered es stated.} ‘Witness continued—I sent Mary Heany to Mrs. Hood, 382 Broome street, as an American girl,on the 16th me of Ann O’Neil was entered Oc- from Reade street. The gt ferred her right to Ann O'Neil. I have no doubt this was the woman that came there on the 24th of October. Icannot say which name of the two city I haveno recollection of the person ef Ann Cross-examined by prosecution—I cannot say that this girl called herself Catharine Seabold. 1 cannot say whether she spoke to me or not—my only guide is the book, |cannot say that she called herself Mary Heaney —the impression on my mind was that they were sisters. I did not get.a place for Catharine Seabold—abeut three weeks after I sent tne girl Mary Heany to Mrs, Hoods ; she came to tf office and said Thad sent a pretty girl, a she had robbed me of jewellry. [The District Attorney stopped witness.) The girl Catharine Seabold came herself, and transferred her right to the place.— Th irl Ann O'Neil came with her. I can- that this girl Ann Murphy was the girl that then called herself Ann O'Neil; my attention was first called to the facts relative to Cicer Seabold by Mrs. Hood. My attention was called to this girl by her fal appearance and voice, while she was on the stan witnesson Wednesday. This girl resembles Catherine Seabold in every particular.

Mr. Bravy here offered the record the 9th ward Court, iu a euit commenced by the girl Ann Murphy, for wages due by Patrick O’Neil, in which she gave the name of Ann O'Neil; which was admitted by the prosecution. He also offered the manifest of the list of pessengers of the brig Echo, containing the name of Ann, who came a passenger. This vessel arrived here on the 4th of April, 1342, from Liverpool, and the report was made by Capt. Sill on the 7th of April, before the Mayor; which was admitted by prosecution. Mr. Bray stated that neither the names of Ann Mur- phy or Aun O’Neil appeared upon the manifest with the name of Aun Who, which was there.

Mr. Gaanam interposed his objections to the course of orogs examination by the District Attorney. ; The Distuct Avrousey replied, and during his re- marks, a round of applanse proceeded from the gallery. Mr. Gramam rose again, and usked the Court to protect its own dignity. He followed with severe remarks in condemnation of this continued interruption. Mr, Wutine replied to the remarks of Mr. Gratiam with great force and energy. Mr. Granam followed, and concluding, Mr. Whiting naid, “Well, we shall fight it out rey omer /” ‘Wirwess continued—Mr. Kelly showed me the way to the Court; he read out of the paper, that I hed brought liquor in the house to Ann; this was during the last trial; it was in his back parlor; his wife, and his two sisters-in-law were present. The defence took exceptions to the evidence of con- versations between O'Kelly ard witness. Witness cohtinued.—He read that Ann had said thet I had been in the house only two days, when I had been there a month ; also that I had brought liquor in the house to Ann. By Derence.—1 never brought liquor into the house, but Ann did twice. By Juron.—Did you and Ann ever quarrel ? Wirtxess.—No, not that I recollect ; | have noill will towards her ; she spoke tome ina saucy manner in the jury room the other day ; Ltold her that she had nooc- casion to speak badto me ; I offered to shake hands with her, and she said she did not wish to keep company with such common people, and then she went in the back room.

By Gaanam—No, we do not ; but we wish toshow by the report aa contained in the Herald, that Ann Marphy has contradicted herself in several material points on the present trial. The Distaict Atrornev—Still objecting, unless all the paper was received. e defence, for the purpose of ending farther argu. ment, agreed to take the notes of Mr, Phillips, one of the counsel for prosecution on the previous trial, which the District Attorney assented to, and portions were then read to show that the girl had sworn onthe previous trial that John, the accused, 8 the first that violated her, and Dingier the second, also that she had never taken liquor into the house of O’Kelly, but that a girl named ay Goodman, who had lived in the house with her, hi [On the trial she testified that Dingler was the first that violate her, and Underhill, the accused, the second The girl Mary Goodman also gave her testimony in the fore- noon, and swore that Ann brought the liquor into the house herself, and that she did not.) ‘The defence then called Mrs. Rutn Grovenon, who was sworn, and deposed as follows :—1 now reside at 63 Fulton street; | had a servant by the name of Ann O'Neil; she accosted me in the street, and asked me if 1 knew of any person who wanted a servant; this w: 11th of August last; sh the end ofthe six weel by the lady who owned ; the name of that lady was Mrs. Shepherd; she is not related to me; I was not resent when the girl was discharged; | then lived in eade street, at 149; 1 was not conscious of ill-treating thie girlin any way.

Crossrezamined by prosecution—I do not know Hatfield or Underhill. Roome was of dark complexion, his hair was black, his eyes were dark, I think me were not light blue—he looked somewhat like Underhill. I should not mistake Underhill for Roome, as I knew Roome.

City Intelligence. _ ‘Tue Haneas Revivep.—A few days since, a wo- man named Ann McGarry, was arrested and com- mitted to the city prison for examination, on a charge of receiving stolen goods, knowing them to be such, and a quantity of said property stolen bv Tom Moran, who was convicted in the Special Sessions yesterday, found in her premises at No. 51 Thompson street. On Thursday she was charged with petty larceny and fully committed, the stolen goods haying been found upon her, and also retained for examination on the previous charge of receiving stolen goods. After the pelice office was closed on the same evening, she was taken before Judge Lynch on a writ of habeas corpus, and a man named cDonald, who, we understand, is one of the depu- ty keepers of the city prison, was received as her bail, and she was allowed to go at large with the other charge resting over her. Yesterday morning, Barnabas Osborn, Esq., one of the clerksof the police, observing Anon McGarry in the vicinity of the Tombs, directed officer Sweet to bring her in. She was then examined before Justice Parker, and iy committed, the evidence being conclusive, in default of bail, in the sum of $500. About dusk, she was again taken_before udge Lynch, who lef« the bench in the Court of Sessions for that purpose, and a person nimed Henry Schmidt, a German, ot 48 Laurens street, ta- ken as bondsman for her appearance He justified that his stock in trade was worth $100, and that he also had $200 in cash in his pessession over and above all his debts. This interference with the business of the police office by Judge Lynch, 1s, to say the least of it, ra- ther jndecorous to the magistrates of the office. A Crry Warcuman 1x THE Tomns.—Robert Ed- mondson, the keeper of a junk shop, at 217 Canal street, anda member of Captain Good’s Company of second district watchmen, was arrested on Mon- day night,while on his post, by Officers Stokely and Baker, on a warrant for receiving stolen foods, knowing them tobe such. On examination before the police yesterday, it was shown that he had been in the habit for the past several months of purchas: ing iron flasks, prepared for castings, ¢ T pipe, brass fassets, &c., which had been brought to his place at night by a number of small bovs, forming a gang of thieves, whose ages range from seven to ten years. This honest watchman, whose business it has recently been to learn these boys to steal, was fully committed, and we advise the police and watch committees to keep a sharp look out on some other appointments that have been made under the new regime. Ne.exo Buretars.—Ben Vantassel and Charlee Conover, two black burglars, were arrested yester- day, by Officer Freem and Drinker, on the charge of having, “nthe night of the 10th of January, enter. ed the grocery store of Evan Jones, corner of Or chard and Walker streets, by breaking open a win- dow shutter, and stealing a kegof butter, and about $7 in money. Conover confessed the deed, and they were both committed. Tur Boxs or THe Somers.—Owing to the absence of Mr. Watson, Acting U. 8. District Attorney, the argument of counsel was not heard before the Re- corder under the writ of habeas corpus yesterday, but will be this morning, at his office, at 9 o’clock. Senrexcry,—Michael Shey, who was convicted last_ week tor stealing the trank of Henry Farnum, of Philadelphia, from the steamboat Mohegan, after her arrival at this port from Stonington, was senten- ced to the State Prison for twoyears. This is the genius that made a true Hibernian speech in his de- fence on the trial, alleging that the trunk was given to him by a person to carry, who went off and left im. * The senten in bail cases witl be imposed on ‘Tuesday next.

Tremendous Excitement in Ohio— Grand Collision in the House of Representatives—Great 200,000,000 Meeting in a Row—Thrilling Excitement in the Newark Institute, §c. Since my last letter to you, Mr. Editor, some very exciting trangactions have transpired in several of the most distinguished deliberative bodies of which the noble State of Ohio can boast. In our legislative halls, an attempt has been made to censure the Speaker of the House of Representatives, and an- other member, probably the most able of that body, actually has been censured by resolution ; the great $200,000,000 stock meeting of the citizens of Lick- ing county, ended _in a row, and the secession of the democratic portion of it; and Jast, but greatest, the quiet of the Newark Institute, has been disturb- ed by one of the most intensely exeiting contests be- tween two of its members, that ever occurred in any age or clime—a contest compared with which the collision of Mr. Byington and the Speaker in the Annals was nothing. But to descend to partic- ulars. In the afternoon of February 11, a bill was under consideration in the House, to prevent the firing of cannon in public streetsand highways. After the previous question had been moved, and was second- ed by the House, Mr. Bringing made several mo- tions, as to reconsider, a call of the House, and an adjournment; all of which the Speaker decided to be out of order, from which Mr. B appealed, but which appeals the Speaker decided to be out of or- der likewise. “Immediately after the passage of the bill, Mr. Byington, exasperated by what he consid- ered as injustice and tyranny on the part of the Speaker, moved a suspension of the rules, to enable him to offer a resolution that the Speaker had ** for- teited all confidence as an impartial presiding offi- cer, either from stupid ignorance ae aautoantary law, or froma wilful mal-administration of it.” Mr. B. was permitted to introduce his resolution, but af- ter an animated and exciting discussion, it was re- jected—yeas 2, nays 60. Mr. Gordon then intro- duced a resolution, ‘* That Le Grand Byington, the member trom Bake, be censured by this House for his unprovoked insult to the Speaker.” This resolu- tion gave rise to an equally exciting debate, but the House having adjourned without taking the ques- tion, it did not come up again until che 13th, when it was agreed to—yeas 35, nays 21; a vote produced by the combination of afew democrats with the whigs. So Mr. B. received the censure of the House. This affair has engendered the moet angry feelings on the part of several members, which will find vent, undoubtedly, whenever an opportunity pre- sents itself. In my letter of the 8th Feb. I made’mention of a great meeting in Newark on the subject of the as- sumption of the State Debts, which meeting ad- journed to the 11th Feb. On the last mentioned day very eloquent and able speeches were made by J). Duncan, Esq. in opposition to, and by S. White, Jr. Esq. in favor of Cost Johnson's projet; but the meet- ing again adjourned to meet on the 18th inst., when the speech of L. Case, Esq., against the projet was frequently interrupted by its friends. After- wards, the greatest noise and confusion prevailed in an attempt to prevent Mr. Taylor from speaking, and the gag-law was finally so well applied, that the democrats retired from the meeting and allowed the whigs to vote what encouragement it pleased them to the Hon. W. Cost Johnson. A meeting in Perry pari which is adjacent to Licking, has also spoken loudly in favorof Mr. Tohnson’s plan of saddling the debts of the profligate, extravagant and foolish, on the prudent, frugal and wise. On the evening of Feb. 18, at a meeting of the Newark Institute, a most stormy and intensely ex- citing debate arose on the passage of a resolution condemuing the land-bill of Senator Parker, now pending in the General Assembly. Previous ques- tions and ether motions, to hasten or delay the pas- sage of the resolution, were made in every con- ceivable way; and after its passage, a debate full of personality arose on a resolution to have the pro- ceedings sent to Senator Parker and the Repregen- tatives from Licking. Dr.——and Mr. C. applied to each other epithets of opprobrium in the most skilful manner, which entertaining exhibition they continwed even after the adjournment of that most learned and influential Society, of which they are members. s _ We have had a week of remarkably fine sleigh- ing, which we have enjoyed to our hearts’ content. L’Occiwente. Albany. (Correspondence of the Herald. } Ausany, Feb. 22, 1843. To-day being the anniversary of the birth of the Father of his Country, the Legislature were not in session, the members having resolved upon a holi- day. Those of them who do not belong to the church, and were not otherwise engaged, attended the grand ball of the Burgesses Corps. This fete bids fair to be a most brilliant one indeed. Among the distinguished guests who are expected to be pre- sent,are Ex-President Van Buren, Governor Bouck and military family, Ex-Governor Seward, the Ad- jutant General, and others. Oh, oh! what a bles- sing each and every one of them will get from El- aw ge and the rest of the revival preachers, or it. There was another great land slide at Troy this afternoon, surpassing in extent the previtus one, though resulting in no loss of life. The fact is, the whole hill must eventually come down ere safety can be warrauted to thoee residing in the neighbor- hood. Another portion was expected to come down momentanily. A number of appointments for the counties of Putnam, Erie, Munroe and Richmond, and _ that of Aaron Vanderpool to be Judge of the Superior Court, were made public to-day. Those for the county of Richmond are as follows: Benaja B. Phelps, Master in Chancery, Henry C. Hedley, do, Thorne S. Kingsland, do, and Benajah B. Phelps, to be Supreme Court Commissioner. It is said that se- veral more New York officers have been nominated, though this is not certain. Although a great deal of time has been idly con- sumed thus far in the Legislature, still I am inclined to think the Governor’s recommendation of a short session will be carried out ; at all events, it will not be unnecessarily prolonged. About the first of April will, I think, be the time fixed upon for ad- journment. Jt would be done much sooner were a strict attention paid to the legitimate business of le- gislation. The papers are filled with the results of the town elections. Thus far they appear to be of a character most favorable to the sae Haydn’s Oratorio of the Creation is to be produ- ced in grand style at one of ourchurches to-morrow evening. Say what you will, Albany is decidedly the most musical city in the Union. Sion. Tne Revorytion i St. Dominco.—Capt. Hig- ins, of the brig Joveph Atkins, at Holmes Hole, rom Aux Cayes, 2%h ult., reports that he was obliged to put to sea in consequence of a revolution which broke out three days previous to his leaving, the particulars of which are as follows :— Oe the 26th ul-., in the evening, there came a report into the town, that a large body of men, srid to be 6 or 8,000 strong, were quartered in the pla’ The General in command at Aux Cayes, immedi ately ordered out all his forces, (about 2,000 men,) which remained under arms during the night. e next day the inhabitants were all armed and para- ded in the publicequare. Under this state of ehnive, the merchants and wealjhy men were moving their specie and more valuable goods on board the ship- ping, and every vessel in port got on for sea, ex- cept the schooner James, of Marblehead, which oe not leave, in consequence of not having bal- ast. The bs ee merchants were loading the British brig Jane Erskine. At the time the Joseph Atkins sailed, there was a report that the insurgents had advanced to within two miles of the town, and had sent ina communi- cation, stating that ail they wished was a change of administration, doing away with military despo- tism, and to establish a form of government similar to that of the United States, It this was promised them, they would lay down their arms, if not they would march upon the town. Capt. Higgins states that great excitement prevailed at the time he left.— Boston Atlas.
