Emmons’ Lecture on Tue Steam Eneine.— Frequently as we have attended the learned delib- erations which issue from this fountain—somtimes of fertility, but more generally of folly—it was re- freshing last evening to find that the inexhaustible subject of the ‘decay of the potato,” and the va- rious and innumerable privileges and properties of the Croton water have yielded to the development ot the steam engine, practically illustrated by a large model—exhibiting at one glance the whole external and internal movements of the engine in its full operation, and eloquently and scientifically illustrated in a lecture on the subject, by Mr. C. Emmons. To a mere casual and superficial ob- server of the powers of this invention, still we may say in its infancy, in the propulsion of veasels of gigantic tonnage, the numerous intricacies by which each peculiar function is adapted to its posi- tive utility, the harmony with which every action flows to the aid and operation of the combined in- fluence of the whole, is a spectacle which gives to the inventive genius of man, to the interminable re- sources of science, and the expansion and diffusion of knowledge, a something of more than human apparent capacity. Well might the venerable pa- triot, John Quincy Adams, in his speech at the re- cent meeting of the Historical Society, predict that ‘steamboats and steam cars would form a connect- ing line from the Atlantic to Oregon, and the wa- ters of the Pacific.” The lecturer commenced by observing, that steam is a subject which presents many strong aud peculiar attrac- tions Because, in the first place, of the beautiful com- bination of philosophical aud mechanical principles. And m the next place, because of i's having #0 much to do, either directly or indirectly, with our every day affairs— that whether we consider the history, or the effects of the invention, we find much to command our admiration— that it is a work of modern times. ‘hat for refined inge. nuity, it stands without a parallel in the annals of kuman invertion, and that it only requires a clear explanation, ke., aided by proper models iograms, for it to be un- derstood. That the principals ogent in manutactures ia motion, which in a rude state of society is communicated by the hand. That observation and reflection points to more effectual means, and that being surrounded by inau- imate matter, undergoing various changes, in which mo- 2 ii] tion plays @ conspicuous part, leeds us to so modily the natural motions already in existence, so as to suit our = Lanse ‘The means or instruments by which these mo- ifications are produced, are called machines or engines ; that amucbine or engine is an instrument interpored be- twecn some natural force or motion, end the object to which force or motion 1s required to be transmitted. The construction of the machine 1s such as to modifythe natur- al force or motion, and transmit to the object to be moved, the peculiar species or kiud of motion it is required to have. That inevery machine there are three objects to observe—the er which imparts motion called toe ptime mover—the machine itsel! id the object to which motion isto beconveycd. In the steam engine, the prime mover arises {rom phenomenajexhibited on applying heat to liquids. It is found that on imparting heat to a body an enlargement of volume takes place, andthe body be- comes warm to the touch—these two effects always ta- king place together—the one has been taken as the meu- aureof the other, and upon this principle is the thermo- meter constructed. Change of bulk is not the only effect produced by imparting or abstracting heat. In many ca- es a total change of form and mechanical qualities is ef fected by it. It a sufficient quantity of heat be imparted toa solid it will become liquid; and an additional quanti ty to the liquid, it passes in the form of vapor—and by the abstraction of heat a series of changes take place in the opposite order. If from steam, heat be abstracted, it be- comes water, and a further abstract.on of heat from the water, it becomes ice. The tranemission of liquid to va- por is called vaporization, and it is said to be evaporated. The reciprocal transmission of vapor to liquid is called condensation; and the liquid is said to boconuensed. The body hereto be attended to to far aa the effects of heat ‘upon it are concerned, ia water. This body is observed to exist in three different states, the rolid, the Liquid, ond the vaporous, Speorsing 12 the va: ying te which it ia exposed. ‘ate: may eat grees, the barometer standing at 30 inches, when it ce to become water, although heat is ‘still being parted. Bubbles of steam wil lnow be formed at the bottom of the vessel, over the flame, and, rising, escape at the surface of the Water, ex: hibiting, by thus disturbing the water, the 'phe- nomena of water boiling ; during which a thermometer, immersed in the water, will constantly be at the eleva: tion of 212. One cubic inch of water evaporated and maintained at 212 degrees, will produce about 1725inches of steam, of an elastic force equal to the pressure of the at- mosphere under which it ia produced: (Here follows an experiment to illustrate the atmospheric pressure and the condensation of steam, by expelling the air from a retort and glass tue, by filling it with stgam, which, when in- verted, and the ned coned of the t ae in a@ vessel of colored water, the water rises and fills the tube and retort, and would do co ii 34 feet high.) A cubic inch of water, converted into steam, swellirg into about 1728 times its own bulk, exerts a mechanical power capable of raising 15 penne about 1728 inches, or 44 feet high ; or will raise about 2160 pounds one foot high; and if applied to a eeege within a cylinder will raise about a ton weight one foot high, and the same power is produced by coaden. sing the rteam; consequently by heating and cooling, one cubic inch of water, about two tons weight, can be raised one foot high.qWhist has been here illustrated is, how- ever, confined to the temperature of 212 degrees of heat, at which the force of the steam is only equal to atmos pheric pressure, or 16 Ibs. per inch ; but by applying to it 4 greater degree of heat, we find its expansive force to ra- pi ly increase, At the temperature of 251 degrees, its lerce is equal to two atmospheres, or 30 Ibs. per inch,and at 275 degrees, its expansive force is 45 ibs., or three atmox- pheres. ‘he model exhibited represents a vertical section of a low pressure condensing engine, of the most improv- ed construction, as nsed in the boats upon our rivers— they usually have two boilers, the section of one of which is here represented in the model, (here two cross sections of the boiler were exhibited. Each boiler has 9 blower, where anthracite coal is used, and each blower has a small, separate engme to drive it, by which the ve locity of the blowers and intensity of the fires may be increased or diminished at pleas The water should always cover the fires of the boiler, &>, gage cocks to ascertain the level of water, another mode by a glass tube, &c. Steam fgage isa bent tubein which i antity of mercury; one leg of the tube in communication with the boiler, the steam pressing upon the mercury in the tube causes a gnege rod to project from the other end of the tube, &c., safet valve, &c., throttle valve, steam side pipe, exh le pipe, valve chest, steam induct on valve, exhaust valves, condenser, cylinder and piston. During the pressure of the steam upon the upper side of the piston, a vacuum is poe in the cylinder below it, by the steam which jad raised the piston being condensed, and when the steam flows from the boller under the piston, a vacuum in luced above it by the steam that had forced it down ing into the condenser, and being there also con- y meeting a jet of cold water,which is constantly laying into the condenser when the engine is in motion. ‘he piston ia thus alternately forced up and down in the cylinder by the steam, with all the force due to the pres- sure of the steam above the atmospheric pressure, and also with the additional force due to the degree of vacuum existing on the opposite side of the piston—air pump for drawmg off the water and air that accumulates in the condenser—hot water cistern—supply pipe aud force pump for feeding the boiler with hot water —hot water weil—the power and motion communicated to the piston by the steam is transmitted through the medium of the piston rod, cennecting links, working beam and connecting rod, to the crank on the paddle wheel shaft. Eccentric, ditto rod and hook, rock shaft, valve roda and lifters, the arrangement of which is sucheas to open the respective valves at the precise time required—the dead centres, from which there is no practical difficulty, by reason of the momentum of the paddle wheels, crank and connect: ing rod. Engines, when first introduced, being substi- tuted for the power of horses—the size or power of the engine, usually designated by raying it is equal to the power of acertain number of horses, but to avoid ambi- uity, engineers have adopted a standard value of the forse bogie which is, that each herse power shall be ual to the raising of 83,000 Ibs. one foot high per minute. Mode of estimating the power of ¢n engine—vacuum gage. Steam used expansively—the difference between the high and low pressure engines, locomotives, &c. ‘This interesting and usetul subject was rendered perfectly Ea ln to the audience by the clear and explicit references of the lecturer to the mo- del, put in motion by @ small high pressure engine attached to it, whic phe He the various evolu- tions of the machinery wit rfect precision. — The interest of the subject, and the scientific ex- planations by Mr. Emimons, has induced him to ae his lecture on Friday next, when, we hope, all interested in go important a subject, will avai themselves of so favorable an pppertunity of wit nessing the operation of the noblest and most im- portant invention of ancient or modern science.

Movements of the Cliques—Office Seeking—Affairs in General. 9 Dear Sin :—As the result of the recent political contest is, like the strife itself, a matter of history, it may not be inappropriate to say something of the future course of the victorious army. Governor Wright, as you are aware, has recently been in town, making his arrangements for the winter. He was the guest of his old friend, the Compt- roller, but was not unfrequently closetted with Mr. Croswell, and Gov. Marey. The barn-burners, and the ola-hunkers, will, like the lion and lamb, now lie down together, at least as far as the Governor is concerned, who will not be governed pe regency of either division. It is suid that ct. W. has taken the three story house, attached to Congress Hall, of Mr. Landon, and that Mr. L. is to supply table, attendance, &c. Xe. It this is so, the Governor's guests will be sure of excellent feeds at least. There will be some changesin high places. First, Attorney General Barker resigns, and returns to his practice; and not, as many say, to be a candi- date for the United States Senate. There are nu- merous applicants already in the field; the first is John Van Buren. Eeq,, whose chances of success 1 deem the best. Judge Parker, who succeeded last winter in getting the appointment of Circuit Judge over Mr. Van Buren, is also a candidate; but why he leaves his seat on the be isa mys- tery to every one. Your city furnishes several candidates. Robert H. Morris and John W. Ed- monds are most generally spoken of ; and western New York will have its applicants. It is a singu- lar fact, that the three Attorney Generals prece- ding Mr. Hall, as also Mr. Barker, were western men. Mr. Talcott, Justice Bronson, and Justice Beardsley, were all from Oneida county. There being but a corporals guard of old demo- cratic members in the assembly this year, the speakership is rather a puzzler. Mr. Horatio Sey- mour, whe has been twice a member, is the Ar- gus candidate, and from what I can learn, with a good look, as they say, for the place. Mr. 8. is wealthy, has been fig a of Utica, and 1s a man of respectable talents. He is a readier debater, but in other respects, is about on a par with Hon. R. H. Morrig of your city. Mr. Roce of thi thie re the present clerk, and Mr. Dean of O:sego, first deputy, and Mr. Welsh of Utica, are now the pro- minent candidates for the clerkship. Gov. Wright will, it Weld act lie make anew adjutant general. Gen. Niven, the present incum- bent, has been elected to Congress, and does not care ubont the oflice—Mr. R. E. Temple, of this city, will receive the appointment. Mr. Temple is afine, intelligent, any, young man; was formerly of the army; married wealthy, and lives in handsome style, and has done much, personally and pecuniarily, for the party. He wasa candi- date, not personally, but by his friends, to Gov. Bouc‘ for the sume place; Gov. B , however, ap- pointed his son-in-law, and thereby incurred the first of the successtul hostility of the Atlas clique. Navigation on the canal will probably terminate to-day, but it is said that there are very few boats ou the way, as uearly all the goods for the west were despatched in season. Mr. Joseph Burke, better known as Master Burke, who has been residing here for several years as ateacher of music and student at law, is about to visit Europe to complete his musical education, especially on the violin. Many of the diletanti, place him between Vieux Temps and Artot, and think, in a few years, he will equal if not surpass the former. He has a comphmentary, concert on Thursday, which will be a most crowd- ed affair, for Burke is a very great favorite with the élite of society here, Phillips gave two concerts here last week, with fair houses, nothing -more. The Swiss Bell Ringers have also given two exhi- bitions, withgo-soish success. Our theatricals con- sist of a Museum Saloon larger than the Olympic pit and first ter without the second and third tier. The stage is a very good size. Mrs. Henry Hunt has been the star, and a very Freat fa. vorite, till last week, when she went to Baltimore.

Corron anp Woo.Lgn Facrory in Natcngz.— The enterprising 8. T. McAlister, of Natchez has succeeded to the proprietorship and management ef the new Cotton and Woollen Factory, ut Natchez upper landing, and is now vigorously applying his ample re- sources and his energy to the business of manufacturing cotton bagging and negro clothing. Under the direc- tion of a person who has been engaged six years in the Lowell Factories, he has commenced the employment of young negroes and negresses, and the ‘skill and agility with which they attend upon the so ype machines, the spinning jennies, and ply the looms, settles the question in regard to the complete success of the enterprize. Ne- ea Can be as pr ete 4 employed in manufacturing cot: ton as in growing it. This first successful factory in the South, will be the avant courier of a hundred like it. The cotton begging, which Mr. McAlister has wrought from the cheapest and most indifferent qualities of cotton, is of an astonishing fineness and beauty. It is much thicker, more even threaded, and oi stronger texture than the best hemp Kentucky bagging ‘or sale in quantity it could not be at present, perhaps, afforded any cheaper than the Kentucky bagging; but it can be wrought trom the re- fuse cotton of the planter, forywhich ‘he could not get eed enough to warrant its being sent to market. Jo. anbar, of Jefferson county, sent in four bales of his in- ferior cotton to Mr. McA., who has had a most beautiful fabric of bagging wrought from it, superior to either Scoteh or Kentucky—specimens of which, if exhibited in various parts of the State, would attract universal at tention. Besides bagging, Mr. McA. will turn out all the mixed fabrics of cotion and woollen for negro clothing. The factory edifice is delightfully situated in the natural cove, above Natchez, is a three story edifice, with a strong steam engine power in the basement, feeding itself with water froma perennial spring near by—the {nel used being Indiana coal, It contains carding apparatus sufficient to card all the wool raised in the State—works about a dozen looms, and has jennies for several hundred spindles. McAlister, Eq., the senior partner in the New Orleans Commission House of Watson and McAlis- ter, and in the Natchez House of McAlister & Watson, may expect in this great southern enterprise to advance manufactures, the best wishes and patronege of all southrons.— Vicksburg Sentinel. @Manvracturses or Ruope Isuanv.—The exten- tion of the manufactures in this country forms one of the most remarkable and instructive portions of its his- . In 1810 the manufactori and, ‘as a lows :— , coptaining 21,030 ; woollen mills, containing 216 spindles ; twenty-five full. ing mills ; twenty-four carding machines ; four thousand, five hundred, and sixty-five looms, principally in families; two paper-hanging manufactories ; one snuff mill ; two sugar refineries ; one ealt werks: one brass foundry ; nine rope walks ; twenty-eight saw mills ; twelve waier wills for making machinery, two for grinding bark, and one for dressing leather ; twelve rum distilleries ; three gin distilleries ; one steel furnace ; two iron works ; three forges two bloomeries ; seven air furnaces ; one slitting mill 5 thirty-three trip hammers ; one screw mannfacto- ry ; and six cut-nail manufactories, The amount of cot- ton cloth made annually was 2.111, ind the average price was forty centsa yard. The total value of articles factured in the State was $2,847,629, What # contrast does this present to the present condi. tion of manufactures in Rhode Island, The number of cotton factories now exceeds two hundred. Several of the establisaments contain more spindies than the total number reported in 1910, The amount invested in manu- factures rious kinds in the State excceds ten millions of dollars, anid the exports from Narragansett Bay exceed thirty millions of dollars annually. ‘Thousands of people of beth sexes have found profitable yy ment in these manufactories ; and the farmer has at his own door amarket for hia surplus productions. At the same time the price of cotton o! been reduced from 4 cents to seven cents, and the wages of labor have materi- ally advanced.

Address of the Association for the Improve= ment of the Condition of the Poor, To rue Crrizens or New Yorx,— _ The recent organization of this institution hav- iug enabled but few, comparatively, to become practicall acquainted with its character and de- sign, the $3 ecutive Committee respectfully invite your attention to a brief exposition of its principles, aijent, and modes of action. OE ts primary object is to discountenance indiscri- minate alms-giving, and put an end to street be ging and vagrancy. Secondly, it proposes to the poor at their dwellings, carefully to examine their circumstances and extend to them appropriate relief; and through the friendly intercourse of vi- sitersto inculcate among them the habits of frugal- ity, temperance, industry, and selt dependence. To effect these important objects, the city from the Battery to 40:h street, is divided into sixteen Districts, which are sub-divided into 236 sections, Each District has a responsible Committee, and each section an efficient visitor. Connected with the arrangement are a general agent, and a central office, where is kepta register of the persons who receive aid from this and other benevolent associa- tions, and from the city authorities. A pocket Di- rectory is furnished toevery Member of the Associa- tion (that is, every contributor to its funds), which shows the name and residence of every visiter, and the section committed to his care ; also printed tickets for referring mendicents to visiters. By thissimple arrangement, the prompt visitation and relief of the poor are secured, and the public no longer constrained }by appeals to their humanity, to bestow alms on unknown applicants, who may be deserving, or otherwise. Long experience haa shown the practice of indiscriminate alms-giving to be contrary to every sound principle of pilan- thropy; yet it has hitherto prevailed to agreat ex- tent, for want of an instrumentality which would protect the claims of the deserving, while it ut anend to the impositions of the unworthy. Such an instrumentality is furnished by this asso- ciation. By co-operating, therefore, with it, every. benevoient individual may follow the impulses of his own heart, and contribute to the comforts of his suffering fellow beings, without the hazard of encouraging imposture or vagrancy. The experience of the past geason has go nearly fulfilied the early promise of the undertaking, that the Executive Committee feel assured that the principles upon which it is based are sound, and deserve public confidence and support. Notwith- standing the occurrence of a few minor difficulties, incident to every new undertaking, the system hoe worked with precision and effect. In nine months it has relieved 5985 families, and the extent of per- sonal exertion in behalf of its objects is shown by the number of visits, of enquiry and sympathy, made to them, which exceed 10,500. Rea The great object of the association, the diminu- tion of pauperism, by elevating the condition of its subjects, and the establishment of a permanent sys- tem of alms-giving, without risk of individual or public injury, can only be attained b: prolonged continuance of the means employed. ‘The Execu- tive Committee are deeply sensible of the respon: bility which rests upon the Association. The im- perious necessity of some measure of this nature. has been long and generally felt. The success of the past season, and the extent to which itis known that the public will rely upon the instrumentality of this association, have conferred upon the un- dertaking a high degree of importance. No exer- tion has been spared to perfect the system, and to provide a careiul supervision of its operations; but unless the resources placed at its disposal beara due proportion to the burthen that will be imposed, it is evident that its efforts will be in vain. To the contributions of the public, therefore— embracing, it is hoped, a greater or less sum from every family able and willing to assist those who are in distress and want—must the association look for the means of sustaining the position which has been taken with such encouraging results. The rapid approach of an inclement season demands early and liberal provision. ‘‘'The poorshal!l never cease out of the land.” Multitades must sufler the accumulated evils of sickness and poverty, unless relieved by private charity. “If thy brother be waxen poor, then shalt thou relieve him that he may live.” ‘* Thou shalt not harden thy heart nor shut thine eye against thy poor brother. Therefore thus do I command thee, saith the Lord Almighty.” Seaen The Executive Committee are gratified in being able to state, that, by an arrangement with that excellent association of ladies, the Female Assist- ance Society, the sick poor reterred to our visiters, wil! receive their kind and valuable aid and atten- tons. Donations and subscriptions are now greatly needed, and may be sent to kt. B. Minturn, Trea- surer, 78 South street; to R. M. Heartly, corner of Grand and Elm streets; to the advisary committees in the diflerent wards; or to the follewing named officers and members. 3 James Brown, President. _ Vice-Presidents.

Stanarv’s Rock.—The rock was discovered on the 16th August, 1835, by Captain Stanard, the present commander of the steamer Bunker Hill. It is situsted in Lake Superior, in about lat. 47 deg. 16 min. North, and lon. 874 deg. West from Greenwich. It is about 30 miles Southeast of Point Keewaiwona, and 50 miles north of Chocolote river. ‘The nearest land is Ma- nitou island, some 20 miles to the Northwest. Capt. Smith- ric,of the schooner Algonquin,in 1843,was the first person to land upon it. In June, 1344, Ciptaln B. A. Stanard, of the brig Astor, and Mr. Mendenhall, landed upon the rock, and took bearings and soundings. ‘The rock be- longs to the class known as traprocks, and is 1» or 20 teet long, and 8 or 10 broad, rising above the suria the lake 4 or 5 feet; a1 sembling, in the lan, of its discoverer, * tteau bottom upwa: the Northwest of the rock, a reef puts out distance of a quarter of a mile, but on all other es no bottom could te found with a forty fathom . The situation of this rock is rather dangerous, as it is only about 10 or 12 miles to the Sonth of a direct lina from White Fish Point, near the lower end of Lake Supe- rior, and Copper Hatbor, on the Northerly side of Point Keewaiwona. This singular rock, could it be exposed to view, would present onc of the most extraordinary ne- tural curiosities on the globe ; and who can tell if sucha thing may not chance in the countless ages that have yetto passere “the heavens shall be rolled together like a scroll, and the earth shall meit with fervent heat”? We know that the lofty summits of the Alleghanies once re- sounded to the rour of the troubled ocean, and that our own dry land formed at one time the bed of th: deep.” It is not improbable then, that riod, pilgrims from the whole world m the base of this stupendous column, and bow themselves in adoration before that Majestic Power, at whose bid- ding the “waters were gathered inte a heap, and whole continents rose up in the midst of the ocean.” —Cleveland Herald. Dornas in Wisconstn.—The last number of the Laneaster (Grant county) Herald, contains a long count of some transactions which closely resemble an empt at Lyach law, by what that paper calls substan- tial farmers and order loving citizens. One Judge Thomp- son, formerly a man of wealth and in: hi become noxious to his neighbors, bet himself varions disputes have arisen. Several barns were petghy v0 by fire, und the acts were attributed to Thomp- son. He wasarrested, and not giving bnil, was commit ted to prison, and after remaining there for several months made his escape before trial. A few wecks ago another barn and a number of large stacks of whent were destroy- ed, the latter being the property of a man to whom Thompson owed an inveterate enmity ; this, connected with ether circumstances, led to the lief that he was the author of the fires, and in a short time scores of armed men were scouring the country in swarch of him. Vor two or three days the search was ineffectual, yet it was thought they had traced him to where he had encamped sad frawn, up his canoe on the East bank of the Mississip- pi. This discovery, or something else, led to farther search in that quarter, and his arrest by the sheriff the same Srainnce un island in the river. As soon as it n was known that he had been arrested, forty or fifty of the settlers, all armed, attempted to take summary vengeance upon him, ‘The sheriff sent an express for aid, which came in time to protect his prisoner, who was lodged in jail, and the illegal assemblage dispersed. Mackinaw Trour.—The Cleveland (O.) Herald thus speaks of this excellent fish :—Mackinaw trout have a celebrity almost as wide as the kingJy isle itself — They are taken from sizes ranging from two to thirty or fort; unds, and drawn from the pure eold waters that nck the romantic gem of the Northern Lokes, are fine eating at all times of the ed Daring the season of navi a boats ol a supply for their tables, and packed inice, they are transported fresh to the various Jake ports. For afow years our city has been #up. | radi and spring with fresh White fish, taken in the it river, These excellent fish are sold here at from 12) cents a piece, or three for Sten of a dollar; and we learn that those engeged in the business now dispose of some 2,000 per week.

Case of Polly Bodine, Monday morning, his Honor Judge Kent, assisted the County Judgen’—— Ward, Richart D. Little, Sects L. Clawson, Nicholas Crocheron and Lawrence H. Cor- telyou opened this Court end immediately proceeded to business. The first thing don by nes, ent was to charge the Grand Jury, w) in @ brief msnner, and then referred to the case of Polly Bedine, whose counsel not being present, several other cases were cell- ed upon, but none were brag It being now twelve o’clock and nothing before the Court, it took a recessto one. At that hour there was a punctual attendance of all partics, judges, counsel, clients and spectators, The Jat- ter class, although numerous, did not muster near so strongly as persons might be led to suppose from the re- markable nature of the principal case to be decided, and the great publi given to it. Very much of the excite- ment and profound teeling, called forth by the sad occur rence at first, has clearly abated. People now talk of it- as of any other year old event, end astranger would never suppose that the quiet wnd retired Staten Ialend had echoed with the lamentations of sympathy for the victim, and-denunciations against the author of a most foul and barbarous crime, committed within her retired precincts. On the reassembling of the court, the presence of the risoner was ordered, upon which the sl proceeded o execute the command, In about ten minutes, she en- tered, lerning upon the arm of one of her counsel. All eyes were upon the approsching figure. She was habited in acomplete suit of mourning, her step was light end confident, and but forthe spectral paleness of her visage, which avery thick black veil could not hide, none would be led to suppose that her position was that of a prisoner, or that she betrayed any symptomsof a] sion from the result of the ding trial. Disrrict Attoxnky Cianke moved that the case of Polly Bodine, indicted for murder, should be called on, upon which Counsez for the prisoner offered a in abatement, on the ground that the case 1g sent up by writ of certiorari before the Supreme Court, it was still in that court, and that it had oot er to remand the case before this special court er and Terminer, because, by a rule of its own, motions in crim- inal cases must be heard in term time; the case was not remanded by the Supreme Court, for it had been done by but one of its iges in Albany—therefore that it would be prudent to stay proceedings until at least the matter should be enquired into. Counsel tor prosecution replied at greatlength, and the argument was almost in- te:minable, but of little interest, and hardly more intelli- gible, to any who heard it, save the gentlemen learned inthelaw, About halt past 5, it came to an end, and Judge Kent gave judgment in a brief and ex) man: ner; His Hunor sustained the juriediction of the Su- preme Court,, which, he waa clearly of opinion, hed a right to regulate the proceedings of subordinate courts; therefore the core was remanded, and now before the Court of Oyer and ‘rerminer In tuchinond- Mr. De Wirt, for the defence, filed some exceptions, with the peimission of the Court. The jury }ist being produced by order of his Honor, that a jury might be empanelled, Counsel for the prisoner challenged the array—or, in other words, objected to the panel of jurors—on the ground that the list of names put in the box was not that furnished by the town tofticers—that there being a news- published in Richmond, the clerk di ishing it therein, give the regular six da the residences and other particulars demunded by law, were not specified in the list—that after the list, the Sheriff added other names thi , challenge gave rise t counsel on both sides. Mr. Wuirine averred that the objections tothe jury list were trivial, and unfit to vitiate it; for although there eat be some minute discrepancies perceived between it and the statute, ity trey were merely of form, preduced no detriment to the prisoner, were not caused by neglect or with previous intention, and fore not . The Court, alter a short consultation, gave judgment, end renewed the points raised, seriatim, all of which it re- garded as untenable, except that setting forth non-com- Pliance with the statute, by publishing in the newspaper of the county, a notice of the Saving cr six jurors from the general list, six clear days before. nor, Jucge Kent, was clearly of opinion that im that instance the statute had not been complied with, andthet it was the duty of the Court to allow the challenge of counsel for the detence, and to discharge the jury accordingly. The Court, after a few paapespens as to future pro- ceedings, adjourned at 9o’clock, P. M., till next day at 9AM Lie Tusspay Moanin Derclock. e Court was opened punctnally at the appoint Mr. Wririna arose, and cited a number of cases bearing upon the decision ‘just given as to the Bhalleas of the jury, that the Court might review the same.
