Crose-examined by Mr. Granam.—I loaned this money Van Cott on hond and mortgage, which bond was fore- closed for me by Mr. Edwards. The property was sold and bought in by msself,a dl uow own it. Mr. Edwards had two notes to collect for me from Van Cott ; this was all the business I had with Mr.Edwards. Mr. Sharp came to see me once on this busine: of | found Van Cott on my ari place, a question or two passed before Mrs. Van Cott came in withher ha on. Van Cott first spoke.

Q—What did Van Cott say that the girls could tell about his wife ? A—He did not tell me what Mary Riddell would say but he didsay what Mary Waldron would say, which was, that herself, Mre, Van Coit and Sharp were all io bed together ; [here there was avery audible Oh | from the ladies’ bench, and a titter omong the audience ; Mary Waldron hides her blushes in her handkerchi Mr. Van Cott still crying) I went there because | heard there had been a difficulty between Van Cott and his wito in consequene of what Dr. Bailey had suid; Mrs. Plain was not at dinner with ua on the Sunday spoken of; he was not boarding there with his wife ot the time; | called frequently at Van Cott’s house at Williamsburg and saw Mr. Sharp there; { never had any quarrel with Sharp, I never said any thing about hia being so much at the house, and what people would say; I never mec- tioned the matter to Mrs, Van Cott; I receliect once «peaking to Sharp about some nonsense ; it was notin in consequence of any thing which passed be- tween him and Mrs, Van Cott; whilel was living (Smith’s) [recollect Mrs Van Cot! and Sharp com: together there and the afternoon ; remeving some furniture from the garret ; they left in it was not there. 10 You recollect at one time seeing Sharp throw ater on Mrs. Van Cott while she was washing in the back basement. A—Yes, I recellect that; I told Van Cott about i'; Mary Waldron was washing, Mrs iog, and Sharp hada pitcher of water in his hand; I told him if hethrew water on my daughter | would strike him; he replied that he would throw ome on myself,— Mary Riddell first told me that Sharp was going to throw water on Mrs. Van Cott; Mrs. Vou Cott then fainted; then Mary Waldron and Sharp led her into the front basement, each holding her by an arm; they laid her on the sofa until she recovered; this was white Van Cott was absent at the South; when | went to Mr. Edwards’ office Idit not teli Mr, Plain, for Van Cott; that if he would ceaseto prosecute Sharp | wonld settle the money trensaction; |had commencet my suit against Yan Cott oefore he had against Sharp; I had demanded trom Van Cott @ part of my money previous to Sy, hearin, any thing of the difficulty between him and his wile; asked him a good many times; [ don’t think that my al- (air with Van Cott had any thing to do with this cag Professor James J.

Bennett, Esq. :— Dear Sir :— Ifany thing of moment had transpired since my last, I should have communieated it. To-night a caucus of the democratic members will be held, to agree upon candidates for State Treasurer and Keeper of the Penitentiary. The most promineat are, for Treasurer, Joseph Wood and Thomas Ar” rowsmith, Eeqrs. From the best information I can obtain, the Le- gislature will pass a law calling a convention of the people, to assemble early in May next, for the par- pose of revising our State constitution. It isa re- markable fact, .hat an effort to amend the organie law of a free State, has never been unsuccessful. The ball, once set in motion, never stops short of the successful accomplishment of the desired end. Ours will doubtless be a radical change, and for the better. You have recently been an eye witness of the crumbling governments of the East, where the great, radical, and momeatous scenes in the go- vernmental drama shortly to be enacted,will ast tsh the world. Among the virtuous, philosoph movements of the present day, none is more promi went nor just, than the effort to break dow: “aristocracy ot wealth,” which, by corrupt leg tion, has gained astrong foothold. The intelligence of the age in which we live, despite the virulence ot party warfare, points to a period, not distant, when merit shall be the only mark of political dis- tinction, and when the equal, social, and political rights of man will be universally acknowledged. On Friday there will be another joint meeting, when several persons will receive their share of the bounty tor the “ coons” skinned at the recent eleo- tion. ‘The members are bored to death by office seek ers. They are watched when they leave the house —seized by the arm in the street—rum down at the hotels—and, making sure of the next seat at table, carry their penetrative faculties to such an extent, chat an applicant for the state prison, a state trea- -urer, a surrogate, a clerk or two, and haifa dozen judges and justices, are not untrequently crammed sown one’s throat ata single meal _ If these people only knew what a con'emp.idle opigion is entertain. ed by the members of such conduct, their zeal ‘ancy, would be considerably abated, Yours truly, Amicts.
