NEW YORK HERALD. "New York, Thursday, August 10, 1843. (> Aliletters on business with this office, and communications intended for insertion, must be addressed as heretoiore to James Gonnon Bennett, <ditorand proprietor of the New York Herald. Reform of the City Government. All the friends of good order, the laws, and the weifare of our city, will rejoice in the prospect, a; Inst afforded, of a judicious reform of the city go- vernment. We published en Tuesday morning the plan on which his Honor the Mayor, proposes to conduct the municipal government. Its great prin- ciple consists in leaving the management of the local affairs of each ward exclusively in the hands of the Alderman, Assistant Alderman, Justice, and Awsessor. The adoption of this obvieusly just and reasonable system, would obviate many of the evils and abuses, connected with the present inefficient, and comparatively irresponsible administration of the city government. The Mayor described in his communication to the Board of Aldermen, with great truthand force, the evils of the present system, and pointed out the mannerin which it can be so readily perverted to the baser purposes of party or individual aggran- dizement. Weare happy to find him discovering such fidelity and determination in thedischarge of his responsible duties; and we trust that the exam- ple will be followed by the members of the corpora- tion. They have now «very encouraging opportu- nity to display the sincerity of their devotion to the interests of their constituents, and to secure to themselves the lasting esteem of the public. ‘The remarks we offered yesterday on the subject of a contemplated reduction of the city expenditures, render it unnecessary for us to recur to that matier now. This evening, however, the Reportof the Committee on Finance will be acted upon by the Board of Aldermen, and we shail thus be furnished with an opportunity of resuming the subject. We believe that the public attention has been now fairly aroused to the importance, and indeed absolute ne- cessity of the adoption of some such measures as those recommended by the Mayor. Let something decisive be done before the excitement ot the fall campaign, swallows up as usual every thing really connected with the public interest. Quvaranrine Law it we wanted any proof of the selfishness of the political hacks, and the dis- honesty and disregard of the public interests inani- fested by their “organs,” we have it in the course pursued by them in relation to the present absurd, oppressive, useless system of quarantine regulations. Medical science, reason, experience, the evlighten- ed judgmert of all disinterested men who have properly studied the matter, cendemne the quaran- tine laws as altogether unnecessary. But because theic continued enforcement supplies many good fat offices for political friends, the ‘‘organs” of “the party,” and the “party” itself, stand up resolutely in favor of asystem, expensive to the public, oppressive to all persons travelling on the ocean, and seriously prejudicial to the interests of trade and commerce. But the movement to get rid of this evil hes been commenced, and we trust that it will be urged ra- pidly forward to aguccessful termination. Why do no the merchants of this city, and all opposed to the present quarantine regulations, meet together, | and resolye on some united. vigorous course of ac- tion? Let the work be at once begun in earnest. We are ready to give all our aid to the movement. Common Counc. —The Board of Aldermen mee; | this afternoon at 6 o’clock, when the ordinance to form new executive departments, and the retrench- | casion on which [lett my dwell ment and reform bill, mking a clear Yankee saving of about $2000 in the salaries of some dozen hard laboring clerks and under officers, will be taken up for debate and enactment. A reform, tobe effectu- al, should be commenced among those officers whose salaries range among the thousands, and not | with those whe do all the labor and are classified amongthe hundreds. Try it on the big fish first, and if they like it, then give it to the little ones. Tue Cass or THE Scorch Murperees.—B y pri- vate advices from Washington, we learn that eome unexpeeted difficulties have arisen in this case, which may delay a decision therein longer than was expected. “ Be nor Rieutgous over Mucu.”—It would be well if our rigid, starched, Pharisaical professors of Christianity, would regulate their conduct more in accordance with this precept of the founder of their faith. A great fuss has recently been made about the New York and Erie Railroad Company allowing a train to berun on Sundays for the benefit of the milkmen, or rather that of those whom they supply with the indispensable products of the dairy. | The Company are perfectly justified, and violate not in the least the sanctity of the day of rest, which mone can more desire to maintain sacred than we do. They surely do not tranegress more fla~ grantly than the minister of a congregation up town, who is in the habit, with several of the most pious of his flock, of riding in the Harlem cars to his church on Sundays. But they who thus call out about alleged violations ot the Sabbath, are amongst those whostrain at a gnat and swallow a camel. Tux Newsraren Assassin has been tolerably busy since hisre-appearance on earth. He has just put to death, we learn, the “‘ unpretending weekly,” on which he fastened himself after he bid Win- chester good morning, and decently buried the “* Messenger.” Joun Jones 1n Trovsux.—Poor John utters a | °° very melaacholy whine in the last “* Madisonian.” | John wantsmoney. The custom house people wont pay up. Noah had better go, and let John“ die an easy death.” New Yorx Voca.Socrrty.—This admirably or- | ganised society is at present in recess, but resumeg on the firat Wednesday in September. It is deci- dedly the best musical society organised in New York. Amonget ics officers are Messrs. Fan- ning C ‘Tue er, Henry C. Timm, George Loder, U. C. Hill and F. St. Rosier, all of whom have attained a highly respectable reputa- tion. This society will go handin hand with tie celebrated Philhgrmonic Society of this city, Amongst the performing members we noticed, on occasion of our visit, Mrs. Horn, Mrs. Hardwicks Mre. Loder, the Misses Cummings, Austin Phillips, Davis, Maynard, Massett and others. The “‘associ- ate members” have the privilege of practising with those favorite professors. The first concert will take place early in October The music selected by the directors is of the highest order, consis‘ing of the compositions of the Madrigalians of the 14th and 15th centuries, together with the finest efforts of Jerman, English and Italian schools. With one of the Madrigala we were much delighted, notonly on account of the magnificence of the mu- fic, but also the quaintness of the words, which w: cannot resist giving. fin 1400 :— Down in a flowing , all on & summer's morning, Pail.te I spied, all nature's self adorning ; Swiftly on wings o! lovel flew to meet ner— Godly she welcomed me when | did greet her. } bled thus my ditty : hepherdess have pity, Aad hear a faithiul lover His passion thus discover.

We havea fiw equally wise in our own day. Tur Pevrereran Maton at Cuetsea.--The Bos- ton Transcript of Monday says that Elworth and Fogg were that morning summoned to the city as witnesses before the grand jury. To keep up the time, of walking 1000 miles in 1000 hours, they walked once or twice round the common. Alter they had given their testimony, they returned to Chelsea, and resumed their work in the Park as be- fore. The purport of their being summoned has) not yet transpired It was composed by “ Festa” | | crawling in the dust of political mendicante; in the | of the heart—an homage to the man, to his since- Pior ann Counrerrtot—Mipniaut Consrmacy —Jeremun G. Haron ann Seta Dricas— Great Exrcosion anp Excrrament.—Conspiracies, plots, and counterplots, are opening upon us with | multiplied force, and unless some rectifier is sud- denly produced, Wal! street will, like Sodom and Gomorrah, be selected as the spot for direful ven- geance. Bergen still remainsin the City Prison; Hamilton is at large, and having beeome suddenly ! so extensively notorious, he has been selected as | the victim or participater in a counterplot, the ef- | fect of which must have been experienced to be | fully felt. Hamilton, recently arrested with Ber- gen ona charge of corspiracy against the Atlantic | Insurance Company to obtain money, appeared at the watch house on Tuesday evening, and entered complaint to the following etfect:—That in the | morning he. had received an anonymous letter re- | questing an interview at the ead of Pier No. 1 North | River, at nine o’clock that evening, on business of | much importance to his own interests, and suggest. | Ing, by way of inuendo, that the writer had been a | man of some wealth, which had been lost by specu- lation, and he was now ready to restore his fortune by almost any means that could be resorted to. That | a speculation of great value could be entered into | immediately by the writer in company with Hamil- | ton, which required but little funds, but needed the | Fresence of one of the parties in South America at short notice, &e. | Hamilton supposing that it might be something of service at this particular crisis, concluded by the advice of some friends to meet the anonymous party, and accordingly accompanied by two ec- quaintances, who kept at a short distance, he re- | paired to Pier No. 1 at nine o’clock in the evening, | and there found an athletic man very genteelly dressed, whom he accosted, supposing him to be the author of the note. The gentleman perceiving | the friends of Hamilton in the distance, refused to | enter into any explanation and circumstances. This | inducing Hamilton to suppose thatthere was some | plot against his person, he insisted that the gentle- |man in black who had made the appointment | should either explain, or be escorted to the watch house. Refusing to comply with the first request, the latter was enforced, and the mysterious stranger landed at the watch house, where, instead of being | agenius of darkness ascended from below to aid | Hamilton in his present insurance difficulties, it was found to be the somewhat notorious Seth Driggs now an applicant to John Tyler for a consulship to some South American port, and who, we believe. | formerly represented this country in that capacity He was locked up in the watch house for the night, | and in the morning confronted with Hamilton, be- | fore Justice Merritt, when he acknowledged that | he was the aythor of the anonymous letter, but gave no explanation as to the cause for suchsingular cen- duct. There being no legal ground to keep him in | custody he was discharged, and thus endeth this } plot and counter plot against Jeremiah G. Ham- ilton. Ex-Presipent Apams.—Throvghout the recent | tour of this venerable and interesting man—inter- esting, for he connects the period of the Revolution with the present, and has mingled in the events which have marked the progress of this land to its present elevation—he has been everywhere receiv ed with the most emphatic demonstrations of affec- tionate attachment. At Albany, a few days ago, when addressing the multitude congregated to give him welcome, he gave a hurried review of his tour, which possesses sufficient interest to warrant its re- publication in our columns. It was as follows:— Feiow-Citizexs—It is one month this day, since I left my native village and my humbls residence init, with a view to visit a corner of the State of New York. My friend The Lavinia Pirates. We yesterday gave such a report of the examination before Mr. Commissioner Rapeljea as the importance of the case required. It is now highly probable that we shall soon be in possession of further details respecting the arrest and committal of Webster, the third man, who was not in custody when Matthews and Babe were com. mitted. It appears that the story from Albany which we published respecting the arrest of a man calling himself Coffve, is not borne out by evidence so as to connect him with the piracy and murder, but from the following letter it would appear that Webster has been arrested at Buf falo :— Burraro, August 7, 1843 To the United States Marshal for the Southern District of New York :— e ‘Sin—I have arrested a man here, and have now got him in ail; and from his own account of himself, he is a sailor from New York; and wes he has bee. on board of the Sarah Lavi ad on rr the account of the arrest of the two pirates from the Sarah Lavinia, and the de. scription of Webster, I have taken the liberty to commit him to jail, till I could hay full description of him. The man I have in jail is about 6 feet 7 inches high, stout build, full face, rather sandy hair, I think auburn, and I should think about 20 years of age. He is in great trouble about something, and says that he wishes his right was cut off, so that he should not commit any more deeds, I spoke to him and called him Webster, and be immediately asked me what I knew about it, and then denied to answer any thing further, an¢ seemed to bemuch dejected, and at times acts as though he was out of his mind. Please answer as soon as you receive this, as I may not be able to hold him long. Yours, in haste, C. A. WALDRON, Police Officer, Buffalo. P 8. I wrote the Mayor, but fearing he might be out of town, have taken the liberty to write you. Mr. C.8. Knight, who pursued the pirates from Now- edie Rhode Island, has been despatched to Buffalo to jdontify the man in custody there, and if it be Webster he will doubtless recognize him. ‘There appears te be some controversy respecting the person who did in reality arrest the prisoners here, and for this service there are as many claimants as there were towns to claim the honor ot being the birth place of Ho- mer. The claim of Mr. Knight we find hasbeen sustain- ed by several affidavits. Due oredit and reward should be given tothe real Simon Pure whoever he may be, and to all who aided in rendering such signal service to the community. Exorements.—A few days since, in alluding to the frequency of elopements of late, and to the commission of other crimes against society, and in alluding to several recent cases, we mentioned an affair of a bad complexion in Ohio. Since these remarks were made, we fiod the following state- ment has been published 1n the Cleveland Herald of the 5th inst. :— UnmitigateD Scounpre.ism.—For some days at my side (turning to Mr. Barnard) has alluded to the oc: . was in part in pursuit cf the health of a near and dear relative, and not | without someidea of benefitting my own, having heen | myself much indisposed during the last few months, I | came with the intention of passing not morethan four or | five days, and mainly with the view of enjoying the ben- | efit of the Lebannon Springs. While there, I was so much delighted with the very small portion of New York which I there saw, that I was tempted to proceed first to | the Springs in the neighborhood of this city (Saratoga) and thence to Lake George, and Lake Champlain, and thence on northward until Ifonnd myself in the territory | of @ neighboring sovereign, end owt of my own country. | Being there, I devoted one week to the observation of the | physical, moral and political condition und character of | the people. I visited Montreal and Quebec—and I had the | huppiness there to finda spirit which I was delighted to be assured of—for it was friendly to my country, and pro J a long continuance of that pee which to my great satisfaction, as I doubt not tothatof every one of you, has recently been re-established on a firm basis.— | (Cheers.)

(Cheers) From thence I proceeded to view that great and wonderful ma- nifestation of the works of nature and ef God—the Falla of Nisgara—(Cheers)—and all slong the route between that spot and this, I say it in the fullness of heart, which will not be misinterpreted, I was not alone.

(Cheers.) Fellow citizens, I would speak to you of the glorious nature of the Creator ot the world, as exhibited in that stupendous avalanche, unequalled on theiface of the globe, which, marking the very border of your \erritory, pute and olear as if it were an emanation from God Almighty, proclaims to the visi- tor that yours is an uncommon country—that he has come to a land endowed by the Godof Nature above your fel- lows.

Whata eontrast has been presented in the recent tours of an Ex-President, and the present chief ina- gistrate! In the one case, the cold and formal tri- bute of respect to the official, or the sycophantic other, the warm, enthusiastic, apontaneous homage rity, his vast intellectual acquirements, his patriotic devotion and zeal, Vic's Own.—Shortly alter the late troubles in | Canada, one of the Queen's ** most loyal eubjects” happened to prolong his stay at the tap room one | night tll it had well waned, before he thought of turning his face homeward. On approaching the lines through which he had to pass, and which were guarded by the “colored” regiment on the Niagara station, at that time composed principally of ranaway negroes from the States, he encoun- tered one of ‘em who “ did the soger” to him in this wise, “Hallo dar—who comin—dvance and" guy couatersign Victori, or a can’t pass here! pasta recent elopement has cauzed no litle talk in our city, and the facts which have come to light are almost too humiliating to poor, fallen human nature, to bear alluding to. It appears, briefly, that Dr. Henry B. Peabody, a practising physician in Cleve- land, was called {some three years ago to visit pro- fessionally Mrs. Belden. wite of Captain Cliflord Belden, then in delicate health, and has subsequent- ly been smnieyed as the family physician. Early in July, Mrs. B. left the city on a visit to her rela- tives in Summit ogunty, and after she had been ab- sent some two weeks, Dr. Peabody left the city with a buggy, met Mrs. 8. in Portage county, doubtless by appointment, took her into his conveyance, and neither have since been heard trom. Circumstances attending the meeting and elopement were s0 mys. teriously arranged as to lead the MARUERE CER hus- band and his friends at first to suppose Mrs. B had been murdered on her way to visit her friends in Geauga county; but facta, terrible as death, soon removed the suspicion. he truth came out, that Dr. P. had abused the confidence the husband re- posed in his professional integrity, and in his honor as a man—had seduced the wite from her fidelity— and for years the depraved physician and patient nat been living in concealed licertiousness and guilt. What adds, if possible, to the enormity of the con- duct of the adulterer, is the fact that he has not only deserted an excellent and respectable wife and an interesting family of children, but in addition to robbing them of peace and happiness, he has lite- rally stripped them of the conveniences and neces- saries ot life We are informed that to raise money for the flight, he mortgaged his property, including even the furniture, &c. of the Save Peabody is about 44 years old, 5 feet 10 inches high, rather poms with full, brandy colored face, speaks quick, and shows a rather handsome set o small teeth, and is a ee braggadocio. Mrs. B. is avery small, frail looking woman, about 32 years old, and has no children. Fatt River —We perceive the publication of the “ Fall River Monitor” has been permanently re- sumed. From it we learn that the Relief Commit- tee is daily in session (Sundays excepted) for several hours to distribute to the sufferers by the late fire.— Their task is most laborious. The ladies, also, are in daily attendance at the rooms of the committee in the vestry of the Stone Church, to aid the commit- tee The rumber who have been assisted with provi- sions, clothing, furniture and money is very large.— The number of applicants .daily for relief is still Jarge ; and it is said that not an individual applica- tion for foed, clothing or furniture has been made, where assistance was needed, that the applicant has not been liberally supplied. Many honest and in- dustrious mechanics and laborers have been assist- ed liberally. No destitute sufferer has been sent empty away. Qg-The US. brig Bainbridge arrived at Laguayra the 17th July, all well. From Vera Crvz.—By anarrival at New Orleans from Vera Cruz, the “‘ New Orleans Tropic” has re- ceived the following interesting information :— The most important items of news relate to the esa of the revolutionists in the province of To- asco. Former accounts left the Mexican General Ampudia in possession of the capital, which he lost no time in fortifying. Tae republican General Sentmanat, was at a distance from the capital, with only four hundred troops under him, when he heard of the capture of Tobasco. Such, however, was the enthusiasm of the people, and their ha- tred of Santa Anna, that they rallied under Sent- manat to the number of four thousand, joined bat- en the Mexicans, and defeated them, as it is said. Late yrom Lacuna.—The schooner Frederick, Captain Jordan, arrived here yesterday, bringing in- intelligence, that on the 18th ult. news was brought to Laguna, that Gen. Ampudia had entered the city of Tobasco, onthe 11th of July, and defeated the troops of Gen. Sentmanat, after an action of two hours, and that Gen. Sentmanat had retreated eighteen leagues into the interior. —N. O. Bulletin. Devaware and Raritan Canat.—It is stated by the Philadelphia Gazette that the damages to this canal by the late freshet will be repaired, and the eae re-opened by Saturday morning next, at the farthest. Granp Excursion to West Point—Concert and CoTiLtion.— We scarcely need inform our read- ers that Mr. Rie!l’s excursion, advertised for yester- day, was, in consequence of the storm, postponed. We regret this, as his arrangements were most ex- pensive, every luxury for a sumptuous dinner had been provided, and upon which great loss must ac- crue, together with loss and disappointment on other heads. Monday next, the 14th, is substitated, when we trust his friends and the public will do justice to his efforts. The dinner will be served on deck, and all his engagements to eratify fulfilled. Nipto’s.—The Ravel family appear to-night in three of their popular entertainments. The Chim- ney Sweepers, the Tight Rope, and the still attrac- tive Mazulme. Gabriel appears in all these per- formances. The new scene for the tight rope is a mos: beautiful improvement to this portion of the Ravel entertainments—it rende 8 the illusion com- plete, that the performers are dancing in air. Asthe pantomime is to be shortly withdrawn, we advise all who have not seen it a dozen times to have one more hearty laugh previous to its being withdrawn. The orchestra play the overture to La Filledu Re- giment. CuaTam Treatre—Tire Baotuses Evssurr.— This Theatre has been crowded for the last two nights by an enthusiastic and delighted audience, to see the performances of these celebrated brothers in the gymnastical historical melodrama of the Wood Wolves, or the Hercules of Brittany. Such distin- guished artists in their line have never before been seen in the city of New York or inthe United States. The engagement of the Brothers Elssler lasts only until Saturday evening, and we cannot say when another opportunity will be offered to wit- nest their performances in this play. This being the only theatre now open in the city, it becomes a more attractive scene of amusements from the en- couragementaflorded by the managere Olty Intelligence. Amnest or 4 surroexp Accomrii Rospza ov tue Porter or THe Lono Istann Banu.—The readers of the Herald well remember the particulars of the robbery of the Porter of the Long Island Bank about six months since, while passing frem the Union] Bank of this city across the Brooklyn ferry, with a large sum of money belonging to the former institution. A recent develop ment in this city will, in all probability, lead to a full dis- elosure of the circumstances attending such robbery, and an arrest of all concerned therein. A few day ce, at the last match game of cricket played near this city, be tween the New York and Philadelphia competitors fora large sum of money, a person, whose name is Wil- liam Rushton, hailing from Philadelphia was pre- sent, making large offers to bet upon the result of the game, and exhibiting large sums of money to the spectators for that purpose. The day previous to the match he called upon one of the Messrs. Shaws, importers, of 259 Pearlstreer, and stating that hehada large amount of money with bim, particularly requested that ne would make a deposite of $1,000, and give him the check of the firm for that amount on the ensuing day. Rushton handed Mr, Shaw a $1000 note on the Long Island Bank, which he deposited with his other funds in the Union Bank of this city, and gave his cheek for the amount the ensuing day, which was drawn in small notes. The teller of the bank not being at his desk at the time the note was recelved, it was passed to the credit of Mr Shaw, and deposited among the funds of the bank to be exchanged the next day. On making up the return to the Long Island Bank the ensuing day, the note was ilentified as one of the $1,000 bills taken from the porter of the bank at the time he was rebbed, and measures wero immediately resorted to to discover from whom the note was received. Enquiries were made of all those who had deposited over $1000 en the previous day, and upon reaching Mr. Shaw he immediately stated the peculiar circumstances under which he received the note, which were corroborated by other testimony. It being ascertained that Rushton had returned to Phila. delphia, two police officers were suddenly selected to in- vestigate the affair and secure the arrest of tho suspected party. This has been accomplished, but owing to the miserable system as practised by some police officers, the matter has been kept so particularly exclusive, that other officers possessed of important information that would lead to the arrest of certain parties, have been deprived of any participation to aid the ends of public jusice. In an important proceeding of this character, the May- or of the city and the Police Justices,combined, shoul? be consulted, and all the energies of the active portion of the police brought to bear to aid in securing the supposed offenders, It should not be lett to one or two officers who may accidentally have been selected inthe hurry of the moment,and whose judgment, knowledge, experience, and ingenuity, may foll far short of the combined wisdom ofthe heads of the police department. There has been too much humbugging of this sort among officers, and it isfull time that a change should take place. Further particulars will be given to-morrow. Murper or a Wire.—On the evening of nt, a seaman named Littleton Stevens, who has been absent on a coasting voyage, called to visit his wife, Sarah Stevens, who was in the employ of the family of Mr. Roosevelt, 731 Broadway, asaservant. Previous ifficulties had caused a change of conduct on her part ‘ards him, and alter some irritating conver- tion, and desire on his part for her to approach near him, he asked with considerable force whether she would live with him er remai till the end of her lite in the family of Mr. Roo velt. She replied, that she should like to end her days with their family, as they had treated her kindly. Then, says he, you shall now end your life with them;” and suiting the action to the word, he knocked her down with his fist, and commenced stamping upon her with his feet. Being desirous of completing his work in haste, he drew an iron bolt from his pocket, with which he struck her on the head and limbs until she begged for her live, when he replaced the iron in his pocket. He then seized a billetof wood, with which to continue his bru when she eluded his grasp, and made her escape. forcing herself through one of the basement windows into the yard. Assistance was called, and the brute was se- cured,and lodged in the watch house. Dr. G. Burke was called in, and upon examination of the bruises yee the person of the unfortunate woman, pronounced her collar bone broken, but none of the wounds dangerous. Stevens was fully committed for trial on the charge of assault and battery with intent to kill. ‘An Incastren Rascat —Yesterday morning two black men, who gave their names as Samuel Richardson and Charles Liston, entered the boot and shoe store 140 Canal street, and the former engaged the attention of the clerk, John Mitchell, while the latter managed to steal a pair of boots, and was about making off when the keen eye of the clerk detected him. The rascal made fight at once, and drew a large Spanish dirk knife, with which hekept the clerk at bay, and while flourishing it came near se arating the jugular vein of the neck of Mitchell.— hreugh the assistance of persons in the vicinity, the ues were secured, and fully committedon scharge of jarceny and assault and battery with intent to kill. This is certainly a pretty commentary on the present police system, when a store can be robbed in broad day light and theclerks, in securing the rogues, narrowly escape with their lives. When shall we have aday and night patrol police ? A Warcn Sturren Sent Ur.—Alexander Stewart, well known at the steamboat landings as a most proficient stuffer of newly made and highly finished brass watches, to the discomfiture and loss ofthe nm one’s selected as his dupes, was yesterday arrested for an attempt upon a countryman, and an assault upon an officer, and finally sent to Blackwell's Island for sixty daysasa Rosine a Dent: Onthe 10th of last month, a fel. low calling hii joshua Seixas called atthe room of lentist, 94 Vesey street, and engaged a gold insertion of two teeth, which he was tocall for the next day.

Rogers and the other associate escaped, but the former wae arrested in the afternoon of the same day. Benjamin Parker, the grocer te whom Frank showed the bill at the time it was parsed upon him, testified that the bill presented in court was not the one it was on the Sal Edward @ man in company with Rogers, exhibited in court at a grocery where he wo pecting it was not good, he sent his boy to inquire relative to it, when Rogers tripped the bo; ind the others commenced beating him.

"The Trial of Dowden, the Treasury Clerk, wi ‘This trial commenced on Monday in the Criminal Court for Washington County, District of Columbia, before Judge Dunlop. Mrs. Dorsey, a material witness, was not in stiendanc , and a bench warrant was issued "for her arrest. It is supposed that she is designedly absent, to avold giving her testimony ; but if so, the cause of justice will not suffer, as an arrangement bas been entered into to admit her deposition, taken on a previous occasion, a evidence on the trial. Fendall, the United States’ Attorney, who conducts the prosecution, made his elec. tion from the various indictments against the prisoner, and put him on his trial on the larceny indictment, which contains twelve counts, in the usual form, charging Ray mond P. Dowden with’ feloniously and forcibly stealing, taking, and carrying away five treasury notes,of the value of $100, the property of the United States. Mr. Fenpau stated the case to the jury, and in the course of his remarks, which we copy from the Globe, in which the trial is fully and very ably reposted, said the first count in the indictment ohirged the abstraction of two of these Crag & notes, and the next charged the ab- scion offive. These treasury notes were notes which ithad been the practice of the Government to issue as , lic debt, andto answer in the nature ofacurrency. They were issued for the first time, he believed, during the lest war with Great Britain ; and more recently under the pressure of domestic circum- stances, which Congress thought required the supply of the treasury in this way. ‘The first of the more recent issue was under the authority of the law of October, 1837. Under the lew of the 6th fame 1841, authority wes given to the executive department to issue a certain amvunt of treasury notes, to be applied in the payment of the public fy) ioe hea to be receivable for the public dnes,&c. Similar provis:ons were made in subsequent laws, ‘The act of Congress under which the first of the treasury notes since the last war were issued, was the act of Uc- tober 12th, 1837, authorizing the President of the United ‘States to cause treasury notes to be issued to an amount mot exceeding ten millions of dollars. The 6th section of the act provides that they shall be received in payment for the customs, for the public lands, and for all debts ‘ue the government. Various acts were passed b: Cesarean, issue o! subsequent to this, authorizing the notes, and in some instances auth f notes that might beredeemed. The in this case were issued under the act of ary, 1842. The seeond section of this last me: showed that theso notes were receivable in p: the public dues, under the authority of the various laws sed, as he had before remarked. Treasury notes toa iderable amount were issued under it, and were re- J by the receiving oflicers of the government in pay ment of the public dues; and the notes to which the particular attention of the jury was ditected were recei- ved by the collector of the customs at Boston, in the course of his official line ef duty, and were by him can celled, inthe manner adopted and practised at his office. There were different modes of celling these notes, when received at the different offices of the government; but the mode adopted at Bost to write the wor “cancelled” transversely across the notes—though there was no uniformity in the mode of doing this. Sometimes the word “cancelled” was written commencing on the left side of the note, and sometimes it was written com- mencing inthe midcle of it. In regard to two of these notes, it would be offered in evidence that the writing of the word “cancelled,” began near the left hand sideof one note, and in the middle of the other; both being writ ten transversely. The Boston office also adopted auother precaution, which was that of having an excis.on of an oval form made on each cancelled note by come sharp iron instrument. This oval excission was about the sizeof the nail of his finger, but being made on different parts of the different notes, the matter thrust out would appear on differet parts of them as they happened to bestruck by the instrument with which it was made. For instance, in regard to the two notes which he would offer to the jury, and which were described in the indictment as having been feloni- ously abstracted from the Treasury Department, the exci- sion was made on the first of them upon part of the word “Robinson,” to whom the note was made payable,and who was the United States marshal for the district of Louisia- na. The word “cancelled” was written on that note, the commencement of the werd being at the left extromity of the note. One of them was lhe 22d of September, 1842; the other onthe 23d ie month—the day af- ter. He would here take occasion to remark, that for sometime it hed not occurred tothe Treasury Depart ment to adopt any additional mode of cancelling the notes returned to them; but about a fortnight before the offence charged here was commutted, it seemed necessary to the head of the bape pyri to adopt one. The Secretary di rected one of the clerks of his department to apply @ uni form mode of cancelling to all such notes, and t! by making an incission through thom with an ment coataining three sides; and in order to fa operation of c te the ncelling (which was continually going on in consequence of the vast numbers of notes that were continually coming in from the different receiving off. cs), the Register of the Treasury detailed from ene of the rooms of his office, Mr. Dowden, the defendant, to as- sist the clerk, Mr. Becret, whose duty it was to conduct this portion of the business of the office. The plan adop- ted by thesetwo clerks was, for Mr. Berret to hold the notes in hia hand, while Mr. Dowden drove the iron can- celling instrument through them with a mallet. This process went on for several days, until the discovery took lace which caused the present trial. These note: id een in the ion of the Treasury Department after having been returned from Boston, where they had been redeemed and cancelled,with a large massof other notes in asimilar condition; and during the processof this domes tic cancellation which he had just described, and betore they were reached intheir order,they were abstracted from the Department. He would show that they were in the possession of Mr. Dowden. ‘The notes which were returned from the different pay- ing offices of the United States were always accompanied by abstracts showing the description of each note; and it occurred to Mr. Berret thut it would facilitate his opera- tions to mark, atthe foot of each note he received, the umber of the abstract which sccompenied it. The number ef the abstract sceenpeey ace babe nebo ing marked on that note was 85502; and that number note would show to the jury that these notes were in the rence of the department after they were cancelled at joston. The jury would fiad on one of these notes the figures 85502, a8 put on at the time by Mr. Berret; on the other hand they would find the additional figure of 1 before the figures $6502, which Mr. Berret would prove was not put on by him. It would beshown further, that on jone of these notes the words “Benjamin Cembelle, jr, 34 eptember, 1842,” were written, and that on oae of them the word “cancelled” was left, while on the other that word was altered into“Benjamin Cambelle, jr.” Here Mr. F.went on to explain the anver inwhich the notes had been altered, by pasting on parts of other notes to supply the parts of words that had been cut out by the cancelling instrument at Boston, and by substituting the names of Benjamin Cambelle, jr.gand C. James Cox, show- ing, a8 he said, that whoever perpetrated the felony must have had access to other cancelled notes. All chis, how. ever, could hardly be made intelligible to the reader without an exhibition of the notes. The evidence by which he expected to bring this charge home to the defendant, was of a circumstantial character like most of the testimony in cases of this description.— It seldom happened that direct proof could be adduced in such cases. But the circumstances in this case he thought very strong. He had already stated that the person who perpetrated this offence must have had access; to other treasury notes in the possession of the department; and he had also mentioned that the defendant had been de- tailed from another room in the Let hye Office, to assist Mr. Berrett in the cancellation of these notes. He be lieved that this operation commenced about a fortnight before his arrest. He bafe oy he could also show, by persons acquainted with the defendant’s handwritin, that the word “Benjamin,” in the pame of Benjamin belle, jr. was wrttten by him. It would be seen that effort had been made to erase the word “cancelled tor ot the offence not being able succe: ered the word into ‘ Cambelle, jr. wkward appearance of having a sur- endorsement, the word “Benjamin” it. When they came to examine the jot id thi fore 0 ritten wordas altered, and compare it with that on one of the notes i cancelled ferm, as it came from the Boston of fice, they would see that the letters C and « were in the same hand writing in both ; thatthe letter n was convert- ed into an m,the next c turned intoa 6, and the final d converted into jr. This would explain why the word belle” was spelt in so unusual a manner. (Mr. F. then explained how the alteration other note, by writing the words" C. James Cox;” bt this could not be rendered intelligible to the reader with- o i note itseif.) He had been, per- i i i lanation ; tow he fore, that the word “ Benjamin” was in the hand writi of the accused ; that he had ap opportunity of commit the offence, by having been placed in a position to enable him to do it; and that there were other circumstances which strongly connected him with it. He would show, by the testimony of Mrs Dorsey, that, ashort time before the offence was discovered, a negro man of this city, by name Fielder Robinson, carried to her a letter, profes- sing to be writt n by Benjamin Cambelle, jr, enclosing to her five of these treasury notes, requesting her to dis- of them, and to give ten deliars ofthe money to the ford Bard, a gentleman who writes poetry when re- qnested to do so ; to retain five dollars with the interest, amounting to about six dollars, for herself; and to en- Close the remainder to the writer. He would show that Mrs. Dersey made an ¢ftort to dispose of them ; but, not succeeding, returned them. This negro was the hired servant of Mr. Spice, and obtained from him permission to go to Baltimore to carry the before-mentioned letter. It would also be shown that, on the day before Mre. Dorsey received this letter by this negro, containing these five notes, the negro had applied for permission to go to Balti more, which was granted bim, aad he went there accor- dingly ; and that, on his return, he shewed two of these notes to Mr. Spice. He would show, also, a connexion betwecn Mr. Dewden, the accused, and this negro ; that, about a week before this, Mr. D. had put Into the hands of the other a piece of paper, apparently a draft or check ; toat he went out with it, and, alter a short time, returned to Mr. Dowden with handful of money. Thies was about a week before he went to Baltimore. Mr. Dowden was arrested on the 11th of May. It would be shown that, on the very day when this money was handed to Mr. Dow- den by the negro—after he had been sent off with this piece of paper, or check, or draft—that on this very aay, Mr Charles J, Nourse, a broker of this city, paid a draft of $85, drawn by Pairo & Brothers of Baltimore, on J. B. Holmead, in favor of Ludlow & Parker, ot Baltimore. Here Mr. F. remarked that he wos mistaken in stating that, in the letter enclosing the five treasury notes to Mra. Dorsey, there were directions to ber to pay $10 to the Milford Bard, to retain $5 and the interest for herself, ke. ; but it would be shown that, about a week belore the ne gro went on, she (Mra. Dorsey) received & letter signed * Benjamin Cambelle, jr,” enclosing her $100 Treasury note, with a request to dispose of it, and to pay $16 to the Milford Bard for writing a piece of poetry; and, alter taining five doliars, with the interest due on trouble,'to remit the remainder (eighty.five dollars) jn said Mr. Cambelle, at this place, He expected to that thie eighty-five dollars was paid by Mr. Charles J: Nourse to the negro man Fielder ee en ‘and Mr. day that the interview occurred bet Dowden. hag 4 tioned, given to this ney went ont ae alter a short time retu! ith a handful of " tion between Dowden and the ne Fee vege cy betes. cial agent to go to Baltimore with the Row by evtier cow Other testimony would be offered, to thom aoe are. nection between the two tor It Mage bay 0 Dowden Piemployer; who, os he hed before remarked, = < ‘This letter was written at Mr. Bacon’ the market house; but, in order to she’ ae testi- mony he would have to offer would (as he had before re- marked tothe jury) be circumstantial. Mr F. concluded by faying that he presumed he did not go too fer, at this early stage of the tral, in remarking that there were strong circumstances fixing jioh on the defendant, which required explanation. He hoped that the defend- ant would be able to explain them; and if he could,satis- factorily do 0, mo one would feela greater degree of gra- tification than himself. But it devolved on him to mske this explanation, as he was placed in a situation which re quired it at hishands, Ifhe could make that explanation the satsstaction of the jury, it would be their pleasure im that verdiot of acquittal which his counsel so confidently anticipated. Mr. Honan (with whom was Mr. Brent) opened the case forthe defence—so says the report of the Globe, and we ow too well the ability of its reporters to doubt their accuracy ; bat it does nevertheless appear tous « novel practice to open a detence by any address to the Court or Jury beforea prima facie case has been made jingle witness aoe Such, are be the practice at Washington @ prisonel in the bourse of bis specch, used the following language reapecting the prisoner and these accusations :— “He has ever stooderect before the world, proud and contemptuous deflauce demanded his tria! the production of all the proofs bear against him ; if, therefore, ent desires justice and exculpation for the accused, why he not given him the chance to obtain that Justice end that exculpation, Py Kiving, ue the opportunity of an early trial? Why has not the proot been pl before you, in the presence of this community, that the accused might meet the charge, as we mean \o meet it? though, in a legal point of view, we might have set it at defiance, shielding ourselves under teehnicalities. But we scorn to de 20; and nothing short of inexorable necessity, aris- ing out of the conductof the prosecution, can compel us tosuch course Our injured client has been clamoring for justice—has been kneeling at this judgment seat an’ Praying forjustice, and defy ig examination ; and happy shall we be, indeed, if this trial be permitted to terminate the whole affair at once, comprehending everything con- nected with the transaction ) for he will then carry ,the flag of his reputation triumphantly through this engege- ment—through the ordeal of this evidence—unsullied and untarnished. Wehave only ono regret—and that is, thet all these indictments ia all their bearings are not atence before us, and that you are not cailed upon to jadge and determine the whole at once, our client has bean ar+ Hy ea and called to trial ; the indictment upon which he has besn arrmgned has been read 3 he has held up bis hand, snd answered to a charge of infamy. ‘The learned gentleman has said that the grand jury found the testimo- ny sufticient for conviction ; but he must remember that it was uncontradicied. The gentleman did not know what evidence was detailed before the grand jury, I venture to surmise that, if there had been that evidence and no other, he never would have been called to sit up- on thiscase. Now, the gentleman has gone inte all the circumstances, in detail, of the manner in which these treasury notes have been altered. The gentle- man has immensely the advantage of us in this re- spect. We know nothing*ahout it. We de not know the manner in which it was effected. Whether his inge- nious theory is correct or not, 18a subject upon which we are not competent to form an opioion; for wedo not know how or by whom it wasdone. If the prosecutor knows now it was done, he knows more than we know, and he comes to the trial with an advantage which we de not possess. There seemed to me a discord in the story. The letters in the word ‘cancelled,” changed aos to read “Cambelle, Jr.” There wi thing natural enough inthis. But, reelly, the stat becomes ludicreus when it is made to appear that the samo word was changed to “C. James Cox.” In the one case the letters fit the word, and in the other the: not. Jt would be just as reasonable to attempt to mal canary bird or a whale ot an eagle.” Uf this speech, from which we have made this extract, isto be taken a8 a sampleof Mr Hobyn’s forensic elo. quence, and of his cool and sagacious Judgment, We pity his client. His declamation is bombastic, though perhaps it would be less objectionable in a closing appeal to the jury. The prisoner has, however, in Mr. Brent, a cool, ‘sound judging and discreet advocate, and therefore his interests will be carefully guarded. Mr. Hoban, through. out his address, appealed to the court to give his client an opportunity to show his innocence. Why, what did the court sit for, but to do justice between the people and the prisoner? He invoked the court, says the report, to afford the prisoner an opportunity at this sitting to establish, as he could do, his innocence. He pointed out, in a feeling he great burden which now oppreaced his cli. ent. He stood before the public charged with a crime; his character was held attainted in the leet mind, for a fair opportunity to remove that attaint.
