NEW_YORK HERALD. New York, Sunday, February 16, 1845, _ Seo = =e Mr. Pols In Washing ton—His Cabinet, Several of the journals have been publishing, during the last few days, an article trom the Nash- vitle Union, under the head of ‘Mr. Polk’s Cabi- net,” as being the latest and most authentic intelli- gence cennected withthe formation of the coming administration, which will no doubt very soon be accomplished in Washiagton. ‘Che views express- ed by the Nashville editor are only a repetition of the same principles and the same information which we received froma private and confidential correspondent, writing from Wheeling, and who was in the train of the President in his progress over the mountains. The Nashville Union states that preliminary to the selection of the Ca- binet, the President will make a declaration rela- tive to the principles on which the new administra- tion will be conducted, in relation to questions in- timately connected with the peace and harmony of his councils. These principles are founded on a confirmed purpose in Mr. Polk’s mind that he him- self is not to be a candidate for the succession,nor any one connected with his administration. The views of the Nashville editor and of our corres- pondent are entirely identical on this point. This being the case, we farther stated that after Mr. Polk thus declared his purpose, he would in- vite Mr. Calhoun to remain in the position of Se- cretary ef State, provided he considered himself as bound by the principle which Mr. Polk had established with regard to the succession. This will be the preliminary step in the fermation of the Cabinet. Mr. Calhoun will be invited by Mr Polk to remain in his present station, under the fall declaration that Mr. Polk is to be regarded as a candidate for the suecession in 1848, nor Mr. Calhoun so long as he remains in the Cabinet. Now, this being the case, it has been a subject of considerable inquiry in the political circles here, whether, in the position now occupied by Mr. Calhoun before the country, he can accept the offer of Mr. Polk on the terms announced. Many think that he cannot; but such is not our opinion. We believe, from what we know of Mr. Calhoun’s sentiments, and ihose of his friends that he will accept the office of Secretary of State undef this condition, and that he will not be a candidate for the succession so long as he remains inthat Cabinet. A few days, however, will put us in possession of authentic de- tails on which to form a correct opinion, or proba- bly of the fact itself. These preliminary details of the Cabinet being settled, the next business will be the selection of the other Cabinet officers, and we have no doubt that they will be chosen on the principles already indicated in this journal, that is, that all the great sectionsof the democratic party will be fully and fairly represented. We have in our possession a number of names in these parts, but we prefer wait- ing a few days before we give them to our readers. The interest in all these matters, both here and at ‘Washington, is beginning to be very intense, and all intelligence from the Capito! is looked for with the greatest anxiety. We believe that we have the best correspondents at Washington at this moe- ment, and that they have access to all proper se- crets there in a more extensive degree than any others, and that all the information may be fully depended on which appears in the Herald. Express to New Orteans anp Sprcvu.attions 1n Corron.—The newspapers around us are just beginning to discover that we have been running an exprees between New Orleans and New York and New York and New Orleans, for several weeks past, and that there has been a great deal of money made in some way or another; and, according to one calculation, it is figured out that $8000 was clear- edin one operation. We are charged by some papers with having established an express. We admit the soft impeachment. We are charged with having beat the Post Office Department. We also admit that awful charge. We are charged with having driven the Post Office Department into the establishment of another express. We plead guilty to this accusation, also. But we are further charged with having made immense sums of money by speculationsin cotton. Whether this latter charge is true or not, we can- not at this moment say, not having received our returns from the South, and having heard nothing farther of the matter than what appears in the newspapers. But if the enterprise which we, in conjunction with others, started for the purpose of conveying intelligence between New Orleans and New York in advance of the United States Mail, and which has re-animated the Post Office Depart- ment, causing a shaking even of the dry bones of Mr. Wickliffe himself, should bring us half a mil- lion of dollars and lay the foundation of a fortune of $25,385, 699 874, thus placing us ahead of John Jacob Astor, pray, who has any right to object to it? Isnot the enterprise open to any one? If we choose to establish an expressand drive the Post Office into competition with us, have we not a per- fect right todoso? Have we not a right to use the intelligence for our own advantage and that of the public? And if we have made ten thousand dollars at a single blow by this operation, we shall still go on and establish ex- presses not only to New Orleans, but to the West, and the South, and the East, and every where, 80 as to make probably fifty millions of dollars, and when we reach that, we shall endeavor to make a loan to the fraudulent States, making them honest, if it be in our power. Our great purpose is to re- move from the delinquent States of this confeder, acy the stigma affixed to them by the pen of the Rev. Sydney Smith. We want to make money sufficient to buy up the whole of their stock, and enable thein to liquidate their debts, and if during the present year we shall have reached only a sum of one million of dollars, we hope in two or three years more by our enterprise to make up the full sum of fifty orsixty millions and then generously to pay off the whole of the State debts. We would also pay off the Croton debt, but as John Jacob as- tor has been beforehand with us there, we must rest satisfied with the liquidation of the State debts. Movements or tuk Wuig Party.—We per- ceive by the Commercial Advertiser, and by the movements of Mr. Morehead in the Senate, that the whig party are beginning to collect their forces, and to erganize for the campaign in 1848. This has probably been brought about by the appearance of Mr. Webster at Washington. It is stated that he had a consultation with all the Senators belong: ing to the whig party, and that they agreed upon some general plan of operations, probably to oppose the Texas aunexation and occupation of Oregon, as the only open questions at this moment. Incon- nection with this we perceive that the Commercial Advertiser of this city, always in the interest of Mr. Webster, through Hiram Ketchum, has openly by implication brought forward Mr. Webster as the whig candidate for’43. Now there are a great many whigs and others throughout the country who will demur atthis nomination, or thrusting of Mr. Webster before the party as their candidate for the succession, and who believe that he does not posses sflicient to carry him into the Presidency. On the other hand, many think that General Seott would be much more likely to be elected in 1848 elements of popularity Piert’s Secevoin Resrawaant, PBaoapway.— There has been lately opened at No. 156 Broad way, one of the most comfortable saloons in the city, where will be found at eli hours in the day and evening, fie, flesh and towl, dressed in the nost recherché style, where epicares in solids and liquids will find an assortment sufficient to satia- ty the moet fastidious. This saloon, situate in the immediate vicinity of the principal hotels, is found very convenient to strangers visiting the city, and we are satisfied that those who favor the proprietor onee, will do so again “Taipung.”—We have now got Greeley and Me- Urajh ina cleft stick, and there we mean tokeep \ them, as Prospero threateued to keep Ariel until | he had expiated his misdeeds. We shall do the | same to Greeley and Mclirath of the Tribune. | They have given us the authority on which they based the slander published by them last summer, charging us with having been hired by a locofoco committee of this city, and that authority is a per- son by the name ,of “H. Dewey” hailing from the “ Pacific Hotel, New York.” He states that “responsible men” in Wilkesbarre told him that | 1, James Gordon Bennett, had made such declara- | ious in that town. We now call upon Grealey | and Mcllrath, and their endorser, “* H. Dewey,” | of the ** Pacifie Hotel, New York,” to bring forth | “* responsible men” in Wilkesbarre, Pennsylvania, who heard James Gordon Bennett make any de- i clarations of that kind. If they wish to retain any reputation or any character, Greeley and Mcllrath, and their endorser, must bring out their ‘ respon- sible man” at once. Who are these “ responsible | men in Wilkesbarre,” who heard us make any | such declarationst Let us know who they are. Let us hear them. Let us at once have their | names. As to the slander itself, and to the declarations attributed to us by any persons, we pronounce them false from beginning to end, in any view in which they can be taken. No such declarations ever passed our lips, either at Wilkesbarre or any other part of the country, and we defy any responsible person to make any affirmation to the contrary. We could never have talked in such a way. It is utterly foreign and contrary to our charac, ter, as is well known to any one who is personally acquainted with us. We have too great a contempt for the talents of locofoco committees, or whig committees, or committees of any party, ever to think for one moment of allowing them the slight- est interference with our journal. There is per- haps no person in this world that has such unmiti- gated contempt as we have for the talents, morals, position, and everything connected with the politi- cians who figure on committees, whether whig Or locofoco. Our views of journalism are altogether different, and we shail prove to the world, by abundant evidence, that our paper is indebted to ne committee, and to no set of politicians, mean and contemptible as they are, whether whig, loco- foce, or “native,” for the reputation and populari- ty which it now enjoysamongst the American peo- ple. ‘With respect to the other outrageous slander of Greeley and McElrath—these organized slanderers of a party—that we are ignorant of American af- fairs, we are perfectly willing that the community should decide that question. It is now more than five and twenty years since we have been studying American affairs. We were the first editor, or the first person connected with any press in this coun- try, that introduced the comprehensive and philo- sophical discussion of money matters and banking affairs here. We were the first editor who intro- duced a philosophical and scientific view of poli- tical statistics in the various elections, and of the probable reeults and effects. On every great ques- tion of American affairs we have displayed, in our writings for the last twenty-five years, a more com- prehensive and accurate knowledge than any one connected with the press in thiscity. To go nofar- ther back than the last election,who wasitthat form- ed the most correct opinion with respect to the posi- tion of the two parties and of the probable result of that election? Did we not see Greeley & McElrath, like consummate blockheads asthey are, prophesy- ing six months before the result was known, that Mr. Clay would have twenty thousand majority in this city? Did we not see them ignorantly putting forth such ridiculous statements without ever thinking of the important element of abolition, and the vote which the abolitionists would poll, until we told them? Did they not lose sums of money in consequence of their utter ignorance of the af- fairs of their own party, and did not many of their friends, depending on their judgment and accuracy lose thousands and thousands of dollars? And these are the ignorant fellows—ignorant of common sense—who pretend to talk of our knowledge of American affairs! We might go on and re- cite many other instances of their gross ignorance, of every thing eonnected with newspapers. Look at their fabricated news by the Oxtord. Any per- son of common sense, with no experience in news- paper business, would have known that news tohave been fabricated, but with a greenness that was greener than the Green Mountains of Vermont,they swallowed it, published it, believed it, and we sup- pose believe it still! We call upon these green editors, Greeley and McElrath,with all their philosophy and Fourierism, and all their folly and nonsense, to come forth.— Give us the ‘“‘responsible men” in Wiikesbarre,who ever heard James Gordon Bennett make the decla- ration that he had hired his paper to a locofoco committee. Come forth with your names. Tue New Post Orrick.—We have repeatedly mentioned the gross mismanagement of business at the post office in this city. The clerks do all they can, and the difficulty is not, therefore, with them. We hope that the interest of our merchants will be better taken oare of under the administra. tion of Mr. Polk. We add one or two serious compiaints from Hartford and Boston:— There must be very bad management in the New York Post Office—some aggravated wrongs evidently exist there. We cannot get our New York papers regularly. Many of them are one or two mails behind, and this is notan aed occurrence, but daily. We really hoy a reform will be effected in one way, if it cannot be another.—Hartford Times, Feb. 14. By some apparent mismanagement in the New York Post Office, a very large part of the southern mail matter due here by the steamboat mail in the morning, is kept back for the railroad mail thet arrives at night; and of late, several of the New York evening papers have been subjected to the same detention. More attention to their duty on the part of those employed in the New York Post Office would save the Boston Post Office and our news- menifest inconvenience, and there is no reason uld not be given. If the southern mail lies in Jong enough before the departure of the low the New York papers to make ex- tracts which are forwarded by that conveyance, it would seem plain that the papers for Bosten might be forwarded. If thers ot force enough in the New York Post Office additional hunds should be employed.—Bos- ton Advertiser, Feb. 14. Concert ror THe BEeNerit oF THE Italtan Or- cuesTRa.—The attendance Jast evening at Palmo’s theatre was rather limited. This, doubtless, wai much owing to the unfavorable state of the wea- ther, and to a report which prevailed pretty gene- rally throughout the day, that many of the princi- pal artistes who had promised to lend their assist- ance would not be forthcoming on the occasion.— Previous te the commencement of the performan- ces!Mr. Loder came forward, and in a brief address annourced that Sigr. Valtellina had not made his appearance, and had sent no information why or wherefore; Sigr. De Begnis was detained as a wit- nees in the Superior Court, and could not make his appearance; Madame Arnoult had hurt her toe, which prevented her singing, but sent in her place a Mies Crokensky, recently from Poland; Miss Northalla few days since refused to take any part in consequence of her name not being in “Pico” or bold type, but just before the commencement of the performance a note was received from her ex- cusing her appearance in consequence of a sore throat. This information was listened to with come attention, but at the close there was a mur- rour of something like “Ba!” The Orchestra consisting of sixty performers, was most effective, and the grand overture of “ Semiramiae” was ex- ecuted in very excellent style, and at itsconclusion was greatly applauded. Miss De Luce sang an air from Mozart; she has a voice of much compass, but trembled excessively ; Madame Otto sang in ter usual excelient style, and received great ap- plause. The grand overture of * Guillaume Tell,” was loudly applauded. Sigr. De Begnis’ abkence was not much felt as his place was ably filled by Sigr. Sanquirico, particularly in the grand duetto from the opera ot “Il Fanatico Peria Musica,” with Madame Otto. Before the termination the audience had considerably thinned, which, doubt- less, was owing to the disappointment they had ex. perienced. The Government Express has gone into opera- tion Washington, [Correspondence of the Herald.) Wasuinaron, 18th Feb., 1845. Political Intrigues—The Globe—Cliques and Coteries. The city of Washington is becoming the centre of attraction to the whole country—the very burn- ing focus of intrigue, consuming anxiety, and men- dacious office begging. The near approach of the 4th of March is drawing from all quarters of the country the eager expectants of Presidential favers, to claim their reward] for so far playing the patriot as to cast one vote in fevor of Mr. Polk for the Presidency. ‘Virtue is its own reward,” says the aphorism—but it is no reward to these occasional patriots, that the democratic party has succeeded in placing in the Presidential chairfan able states- | man, a faithful politician, and a pure man. They have been abundantly zealous, many of them, at the eleventh hour, but their zeal needs encourag- ing and must be paid for. But I am assured from the best authority that Mr. Polk will proceed to his work with great deliberation, and he will dothe business thoroughly. He will be in no haste, even to appoint his cabinet. You need not be surprised, therefore, if he permits the present cabinet to re- main till he carefully surveys the whole ground from this point, and then call around him a cabinet of sterling and tried men, in whose appointment the whole country will cheerfully acquiesce. No man certainly knows—perhaps not even Mr. Polk himself as yet—who they will be ; but public opiu- ion, his near friende, and a thousand little cir- cumstances point with great force to those persons, or some of them at least, who will most certainly compose a part of the Executive family. As you have already received precise information on this point, I will not give any names now. Mr. Cal- houn, it is understood, has no particular desire to remain in the cabinet, and prebably would only censent to do so, should Col. Polk deem it mate- rial to strengthen his administration and render it successful. For itjis well known that Mr. Calhoun has at all times been most anxious- ly concerned for Mr. Polk’s complete success; first, in his elevation to the Presidency, and nay, that his administration should be an emi- nently wise acd prosperous one. In thisI speak from a knowledge which admits of no doubt or mistake. Mr. Calhoun considers Mr. Polk an able, a firm, and a pure man, and he hopes everything from his energy and integrity of character, in fer- reting out and correcting the unblushing and cor- roding abuses that have crept into almost all the operations of the goverament. There is an abso- lute rottennegs in the present state of political mo- rals, which would require the united exertions of both of them, indeed, to search out and fully cor- rect. Mr. Calhoun is anxious that Mr. Polk should call around him able men, who will enable aud as- sist him to carry out such salutary reforms as may be found necessary to purify and re-establish the government on proper principles, and enable him to retire from the exalted station, at the end of four years, with increased honors and an imperishable fame. I know that he is deeply solicitous for Mr. Polk’s full and complete success, and fully believes that without some sinister influences, against which his sagacity and firmness will very effectu- ally guard him, that his administration will be pre- eminently succeesful and prosperous. But, whilst the great pote of the democratic party, who have elected Mr. Polk and desire to see him go into the administration untrammelled and unembarrassed, and desire, also, to see him admi- nister it for the good of the whole country, there 1g an arrogant faction, with the head in New York and the tail in Washington City, which is moving [leaven and earth to control all his movements, and mould his administration to accomplish their own selfish purposes. Of this precious faction, the most unblushing and unscrupulous members, are your particular friends of the Globe. They are going all lengths—resorting to all sorts of influen- ces—practicing all kinds of intrigues—to ac- quire inflaence over the incoming administration ind control its freedom of action. They have two great objects in view—one is to secure the public printing of the 29h Congress, and the other is to place Mr. Wright in the succession for the Presi- jency. Their exertions and labors are incessant to ingratiate themselves with members. These efforis are 80 barefaced and gross as to excite. dis- gust and laughter at their impudence and folly — The members, however, are being well-fed for the hope of their good-will and their votes. Blair gives the dinners and Rives gives the suppers. Rives yave a supper last night, to which, i! is said, five vundred persons were invited. It was so timed as to have Mr. Polk at it, as it was eupposed that he would arrive in the city on Tuesday or Wedneeday; hut in this the plan failed. He has just arrived, and the cannon are at this moment shaking the city with their roar. Had he arrived last night, and have trusted himself within the demoralizing in- fluences just mentioned, what. a precious time he would have had of it. Just think of it! Mr. Polk cornered and beset by such a man as Blair and kindred somes to bring him under their control! But though they failed to have Mr. Polk with them, their jugglery and intriguing were none the less. It was Hudibras, | believe, who said— “The turnpike road to most men’s wills I find Lies through their guts—or I mistake mankind.” And so think the Globe men. In 1836, when Mr. Biddle was striving to obtain a re-charter for his bank, he came on to Washington, and gave to the members of Congres a series of entertainments, precisely similar, in their style and object, with those of Blair and Rives. On that occasion, the virtuous indignation of Mr. Blair was aroused, and he relieved his outraged feelings by the following eloquent abuse. The reader has only to read Globe for bank, and Blair for Biddle, and it is wonderful how pertectly his own pes applies to his own conduct. Hear him. ‘He resorted to all the means of seduction and corruption which the money power of the bank [Globe] epabled him to expend. Dinners, parties, suppers, cards at loans, wines,! were dispensed in profusion; and every member of Congress that could be enticed into the vortex of this dissipation, was studiously sought, and earnestly pressed to the rooms of the ban Meee [Globe men] and of Biddle [Blair] himself, who was here to direct their movements, where allthe machinery of seduction was pre- pared, and kept in operation every night.” Biddle did this to aids a re-charter—they do it to pro- cure a re-election as public printers, and to become the organ of the new administration. Never was language more faithfully woes than Blair’s abuse bs Mr. Biddle, to the profligacy of his own con- luct. . But I tcss the corrupt pair upon your own dread- ed spear. Deal with them according to their de- serts, till you hear from me again. * Park Tueatre—Repuction or Paricrs.-— Welch’s Circus continues to draw crowded audi- ences, and the great spectacle of “Mad Antony Wayne” has made a tremendous hit. On Monday night the prices are to be put down to twenty-five cents, for parquette and boxes. This is a popular movement, and there will no doubt be a regular tush for the best seats. ‘Theatricals, é&c.

Whether acount, in case for an assaul’ and battery canbe joined with one on slander. Thesc ints in the case, are, however, settled by the case 18 ‘end. 616. There, by theoriginal holder, or payee, for the amount of the same, on the trial the plaintiff’ was non- suited, and he now moves for a new trial, on the ground that offered all the proof that w: ecessary te make out @ presumptive case a; st the defendant, and be cause hecontendsthat under the circumstances, the de- fendant was himself bound to prove that hi the check to the right owner. The Court are of opinion that the drawee of a check is authorised to Pry it to the holder or bearer, although notified not to #0, unless efuil bond of indemnity maaree to him; until this is done the 6 moker may pay it. defendant in this case had notice not to pay. abont the Ist of April, 1842, and a bond of in- demnity was afterwards tendered, dated the 18th Februa ty, 1848. The drawee was not bound to wait so long for indemnity, and was therefore justified in paying it. As to the other count, plaintiff was bouud to meke out his own case by competent proofs, and not by declarations or admissions by himself and others intended to affect de- fendant’s rights. Nonsuit, therefore, confirmed, with costs. The Court held that case willie for an assault and bat- tery as well as trespass, 2 R. 8. 663, and in thataction both counts were joined with a count for malicious ee secution, and such joinder was objectedito, Therefore, the Court are of opit.ion that plaintiff is entitled to judg. ment on demurer, with liberty to defendant to plead on payment of costs.

Plaintiff passed the check to one Gillespie, but afterwards, on the allegation ot fraud inst Gillespie, notified the bank not to pay the cheek, and payment was refused. The defendant was also notified, but he nevertheless paid the check, the plain- tiff tendered an indemnity bond to the defendant, but this was after the check was paid, although the plaintiff said he would previously indemnify the defendant.

James Gorvon Bennett, Exq.— Dear Six,— ‘ Our singularly constructed political parties, in this State have been pretty essentially squabbled, asthe printers say, within a few days, by the up- roariousness of one of the dignitaries of office—no less a personage than his Excellency, Governor Fenner, otherwise known as “old Durham.” The old gentleman, who jis a rank law and order de- mocrat, got not a little ruffled by the course of the Providence , which is edited by a law and order whig, the journal having seriously lashed one of our members of Congress, Hon. E. R. Pot- ter, also a law and order democrat, and a particu- lar friend of the Governor, and here a few days ago sent to the editor of the journal his withdrawal as a candidate for re-election. This wasa fire- brand in the camp, and until the poor Governor consented to withdraw his withdrawal, there was the very devil to pay. The matter was finally smoothed over for the present, and the journal is back in the paths of peace, saying not one word upon the subject which three days ago occupied all its attention. - Poor John Gordon, the murderer of Sprague, is to be hung to-morrow. Petition after petition for his reprieve was sent to the Legislature, but they had no effect Within a few days the Governor has been importuned on the subject, but he enter- tains some doubt of his power, under the constitu- tion, to grant the respite the poor man asks for. It is reported that the gun belonging to Nicholas Gor- don, and which witnesses thought they identified as the gun produced at the trial, and which un- doubtedly committed the murder, has been found. It had been hid, the story goes, immediately after the murder, by ‘Wm. Gordon who was afterwards afraid to reveal the fact. Test it should operate against him on his trial. There is no doubt that a gun has been found, but there is so much mystery about its history, that it only serves to wrap the whole affair in greater darkness. hat has become of our Postmaster?

Execution of John Gordon, [From the Providence Gazette.| County Jat, 9} o'clock, A. M., } february 14, 1! Iam here, at the place of execution—here in this terri dle place, where shortly, the lifeof a human being, a fel- ‘ow man, is to be offered up, asacrifice to the laws. I have seen him —the unfortunate man, who is so soon to suffer— perhaps I should who has suffered so much and whose sufferings are soon to end. Pale and haggard there is yet a look ot eomposure, almost of innocence, in his countenance. Some ray of hope—the hope, perhaps, which his religion brings him—seems mingled with his lespair. He does net look like a bad man—like a murder er, Tomeheseems more the image of a man of little mind, whose thoughts have been disturbed by a sudden ind to him inexplicable accusation of crime and incarce- ration with felons, and who istrying to recover himeelf and understand his position. Imprisonment has worn him Jown—perhaps softened, perhaps hardened his nature— out it has worn him down; he is thin, pale, and evidently feeble in body. Mental torture—the torture of guilt—may aave made him so—but I cannot look upon him asa man of intellect, and capable of much mental suffering. A kind ef bashfulness in him,1 would attribute more to lack of intellect and education than to a sense of guilt. It {oes not seem the reservedness of the conscience strick- vn murderer. lL understand he bod bate his innocence. If he ses this ordeal, and still clinga to the declaration, I shall believe him.

Fen. 15—Important —Case of Samuel Adams—The case of this person, a citizen of Ohio, indicted for tog gana by false preteaces, Messrs. Suydam, Sage & Co., of South street in this city, was called on soon af- ter the opening of the Court. For the People—The District Attorney, Ogdon Hoff man, J! R. Whiting, and David Greig, Erq. For the Defence—Messra. Stansbury and Bond, ot Ohio. and George Wood, Robert H Morris Richard Mott and J.H, Raymond, Eq. Before empanneling the jury, Mr. Whiting made a motion to ee Ga! some of the deposi- tions which would be offered by the defence, on the igeennd that in the Reposition of Mr. Atwood he was pro- ueed by the defence instead of the prosecution, and the cross interrogatories of the defendan's, put first and the direct afterwaris—and to the other depositions upon the ground thi iny of the questions and answers were ir- relevant, and portions of the evidence mere hear say. He (ome to argue the question of admissability before the jury were empanneled, or it they were empanneled first, that when the iment came up they should retire. After some little discussion about the Deeper of so doing, the counsel for the defence asked could grant a new trial in case, when the argument came up, the point should be decided a it them, or if th Court could withdraw a juror, on the ground of surprii The Courr decided that they had no right to do either, except in cases of irregularity. and that there was no re- 6 except an to the Supreme Court. ‘The defence then concluded to go on, and acceded to the proposition of the prosecution, to have the jury empan- nelled, and allew the objection to be made ‘to the testi- mony of Mr. Atwood, and to the other depositions on the ground of irrelevancy of questions and answers. The Distaict Attorney opened the case to the jury by stating, that Samuel Adams, of Chilicothe,*Ohio, waa in- dicted with his brotherin-law, R.R, Seymour, for de- frauding the firm of Suydam, Sage & Co., ofthiscity, of about $60,000, by false and fraudulent pretences. He then explained that an agreement had entered into, by which 8. 8. &Co, werejto make advances upon property, consisting of pork, lard, ham, &c., which was to be con- signed to them when the navigation opened, and which they were to sell upon commission, the defendant to draw upon them for money upon receipts being forwarded thet the produce was dey id and ready for shipment at Chi- licothe, the pack business being done in winter ready for the ap shipment. Under this agreement about $115,000 was paid to Mr. Adams, and out of that amount a deficit of $60,000 a1 irom property which waa not forwarded—drafts of Adams having been Moonee and aid by the firm of 8. 8. & Co upon receipts setting forth that such and such produce had been received in store, when in reality it never was received or packed. Adams came on to this city in February, 1848, and while here certain disclosures were made which induced the belief thut a fraud had been practised. then went to Phila- delphia and was followed by ond of the firm, and there gave an order for a large amount of produce which he said was at Circleville, Ohio. On sending to that place it was found that there was no such property there. The District Attorney said that the question presented to the jury was one of vast importance to the cemmercial com- munity—the defendant was a man of education and high standing in Ohio, and it was a question which involved the whole commeroial interest of thie city, from the poor- est laborer to the greatest merchant, and when all these layer and precast ‘sare solemnly entered into, whe- ther if they all prove false there shall not be some redress. After some very @ remarks the first witness was called. Joun Done called and sworn—I reside in the summez in New York, in the winter at New Orleans; is acom- mission merchant, and sequainted with the house of Suy- dam, Sage &Co. The house is composed of Francis B.

He proposed to give RR Suy- mour and Arthur Watts & Co. as security for the fo: coming of property upon which he might wish to draw; the other was that they would give their receipt of pro- perty on hand placed in their possession, upon which he would have the privilege of drawirg; the receipts being the evidence of the deposit; he requested me to commu- nicate the propositions to Messrs. 8. 8. & Co., which I did Ihedtwo interviews with him on the 23d, and the other onthe 24th.

I un- derstood from Mr.Adams that he wos dissatisfied with Mr. which caused him to desire to change his busi- de inquiries respecting Adama and Watts & to their responsibility, character and vera- city. Mr. Wuitine then read letter No. 1, dated Oct. 23, Chi- Ucothe, from Mr Doreto 8 8. & Co., being a letter of in troduction of Atwood, exchange broker and miller, and informing the firm of the responsibilty of Watts & Sey- mour: the former reputed to be worth $35 000, and the lat- ter $40,000, in unincumbered property. The second let- ter was from Mr. Dore also, and relate to the transaction, informing him that from oll he could learn Watts & Sey. mour were both respectable men and could be relied upon and would give receipts for property which they had in deposit; also that B. Douglass was in Chilicothe and quite nettled with all, and had offered to leave his name or his tather’s, in blank, with Adams, without any receipts. The letter contains the propositions of Adama at th, end other business matters. Mr. Dora testified that the infor- mation respecting Douglass was received from Mr. lame. Francis B.

These dratts were no laid in the indictment iaving been paid uponithe false pretences. There drafts were then read, dated January 20th, 1844, for $12,200 and a receipt of produce in deposit in connection with them. The defence objected to the introduction of these latter drafts, which were embraced in the seventh count of the indictment, on the ground of variance, the lettera ng added jn'the indictment, when it did not appear in the re- ceipt, and an insertion of the preposition for, instead of of. rp coneeiet that this wes enough to quash that count.
