The empannelling of a jury or the trial of Nicholas 8. Gordon, eharged with being accessory to the murder of Amasa Sprigue, wos concluded yesterday afterneon. ‘The names of the persons composing it, are—Isaae Saun- dors, , Ebenczec Fisky, Ara Hawkins, Pardon H, Aiming!oa, Nathan A. Brown, John A. Wood, Adin Bar kor, George P. King, Almond O. Whipple, Joha Potter, 24 Thomas Hill, Jonathan Hill, 2d. ° Thete were duly sworn to deal impartially between the prisot.er and the State, and then came again the reading of taatey lasting iudictment, which occupied the time the government was opened by W. H. Potter, who appears in this, as he did in the case of Jehn and Williom Gordon, at the request of the Attorney General. He stated very briefly the points which the g veornment would attempt te prove, and the kind of evidence they would rely upon to prove them. They would show that Amasa bring left his house ia Crans- tom, at about 8 oelock, P. ,on Sunday, the 8ist day ef December, 1$43, to g9 over a common foot path to aplace about a mile distant,owned by him, and kuown as the “ Carpenter place ;” that he was last seen alive when about half the distance from his residence to that place, about half past 3 o’clock ; that he was found dead and beutelly mangled at about 4o0’elook, only a short distance beyond where he was lest seen alive hat the sliver of a gun-stock and a pistol were found in the immediate vicini- ty of tue place of murder; that tracks were discovered, leading from the place of marder over a meadow end across a pond, known as Dyer’s pond, thence over low gcound ead by a way partially concealed from view, to the house of Nicholas Gordon These tracks they would prove to have been made by John Gordon’s boots, which were found wet on the Mondaynight following the murder They would show that a short distance from Dyer’s pond, and Close by this track, a gun was found, froin the stock of which the sliver above mentiened had been broken, and would prove this gun, from several peculisrities, to have belonged to Nichelas 8. Gordon. They would show that farther along thistrack, in the low ground, and among smalltrees and bushes, a coat was found, bloody on the rightarm, and with human hair adhering te} it, and that this cont belonged to Nicholas 8. Gordon ; that some pow- der wes found in a Rpoket of the coat, exactly corres ponding with some taken from the store of Nicholas the next day; and that a piece of paper in which the po' der or some shot were wrapped, would be identified asa part of a newspaper to which the prisoner wes eecri- ber. They would finally show the existence of the werst feeling between the prisoner and the deceased; that the former had threatened the life of the latter frequently, and in the presence of his brother John, who committed the murder; that John wes dependent upon Nicholas, who had paid bis peseage to this country the season be- fore the murder was committed; that he frequently wore the clothes of Nicholas, and that only two days before the murder, he had been seen within a short distance ef the very spot where it was committed, with the very gun which was afterwards found in the vicinity, ostensibly in the pursuit of game; that the deceased was in fre- quent habit of Yate over the footpath from his resi- denee to the “Carpenter place,” and that this fact was well known to the prisoner, Mr, Potter here produced a map of the road or path leading from the house of Amesa Sprague to the place of the murder, and of the counter the vicinity, and occupied the remainder of the time, up to the hour of adjournment, in explaining it to the jury. On arriving at the court room morning, at the hour to which the court had last evening adjourned, J was tu- ken aback at finding there neither couit, jury, counsel, prisoner, witnesses, hor spectators. The clerk sat alone at his desk, an old man was werming his feet at the stove, the candy and apple man was asleep by his box und bask. et, and a poor dog was whining about the aisles, whether in search of bis master or his 1 derstand. I sataown to muse awhile by the reporter's table, and if possible unravel the mystery of the “empty boxes” about me, when a friend came in, who prot doubt, that the court, the ne to Cranston to look at the It ight possibly, for aught that I recollect, the candy man in 2 short snooze. ‘At halt past 11, (he Court came in, and the trial pre- ceeded ; the first thing in order being the examination of GOVERNMENT Wigison: Micwast Cosrstuow wasthe worked for Mr. Sprague, his death, and saw him alive sor ie course of the Sunday, on which he was mutdered. In going from Mr. Sprague’s house in Cranston to his own house in Johnson, towards evening of that day, he discovered the body of Mr. 3 i, near theend of a small bridge which crosses the streara thet divides Cranston from John- son. He cid nol owp to recognise it, but hurried on to the Carpenter place, and informed 2 man who was draw- ing water there of what he had seen, He then went to other places, end informed all he met with, that he “hed on the driftway, near the bridge, in a bad way d them to go down.” He then returned to where the body was. Several persons had arrived th: and Doctor Bowen arrived soon after. The reason he did not examine the body when he saw it first was, he ‘vas afraid to. There was much blood about the body, and on the snow where it oy. Cross ecamined —Thinks he might have been gone trom the body, from the time he first aaw it till he returned, tif. teen minutes or less. Conaot say whether it was sunset or not when he returned Docton Bowen—Was called to the place of murder a little after sunset that evening. The man Costellow saw drawit ter was the one who informed him. He exa- mined the wounds on the head of the deceased, once to satisfy himself and again after the arrival of the Coroner. He described these wounds to thi ory ; thinks either of two of them would have been fatal, alone, One of them might have been made by a smooth club—another by a move jogged or sharp instrnment. The wound in the acm was examined by Dr. Miller in his presence, after the body was carried home. Cross ecamined.—Found blood oozing from one of the wounds waen he arrived there. Thinks a wound of that character, alter so cold aday, would not bleed long after it was inflicted; can’t say how long it would bleed. Roserr Wis0s—Was Coroner of the town ot Johnson, and examined the body of Mr. Sprague, at the e where he was murdered.

Boston. [Correspondence of the Herald.) The Collectorship—Mr. Williams and Gov. Morton —Weather, &c. Bosron, April 8, 1845. Your intelligent correspondent from this city, “Guy Faux,” having “other fish to fry” about these days, 1 will undertake to supply his place ia tue columns of the Herald, occasionally, though I will not promise to make it good either in matter or manner. It is now understood that all the officers in Bos- ten, connected with the general government, have been disposed of, and it is heped that things will soon become settled, and that so far as the spoils are concerned. we shall have something like per- manency and peace for the coming four years. Mr. Williams, who is still Collector, inasmuch as Gov. Morton has not yet appeared to enter upon his duties, reached homie from a visit toVirginia on Sunday morning, not to Washington, as has been stated. He looks cheerful, and I doubt not it is quite a relief to be rid of the responsibilities and verplexities of the Boston colleciorship. It is said he has some interest in a lucrative business at the West, to which he will now turn hisattention. It is not positively known on what day Gov. Morton will be inducted into office. The 10th and 15th of the present month are both named as the appointed time. Mr. Parmenter has been acting as naval of- ficer for the last two weeks; and to-day Gen. Mc- Neal assumes the duties of Surveyor of the Port. Hon. Isaac H.

They can do him no harm, as the true cause of their opposition 1s perfectlyunderstood and properly appreciated. The weather here for the past two weeks has been dreary and uncomfortable enough, owing to the prevalence of raw easterly winds most of the time, which, however, is no very uucommon thing atthis season of the year. Coal fires and ovteide garments have, of course, been in requisi- tion as much as in mid winter. The climate of Boston, and other eastern places similarly located, is exceedingly trying to tie physical constitution. The number of cases of consumption increases very considerably from year to year. Guy Faux, pro tem. New Orleans. [Correspondence of the Herald.} New Oxveans, March 30, 1845. Affairs in General—Acquittal of Hatch—Singular Proceedings—The Opera, §c. §c. Two events have convulsed in our city: the news by the Cambria, and the acquittal of F. H. Hatch, accused of murdering Jackson, of yeur city. The first has given a grea: impulse to our market, hav- ing occasioned sales to the amount ef 33,500 bales of cotton in three days ; making the total transae- tions of the week 52,500 bales, which is unperal- leled in our market. Increase in prices } cent in the lower qualities, and 2 cent in the upper ones.— The second event, as you know the affair from its beginning, I will only say that Hatch was insulted, as well as the young lady Miss S., whowas dancing with him, and who was the cause of this awful deed. The case was conducted by eight of our first legal gentlemen, four in pro and four in contra, The court was al! the time crowd- ed to suffocation, and the interest felt in the mat- terjwas so great, that fromFriday morning up to ca- tarday morning at 4 A.M., as the trial comtinued all night without intermission, the court was pack- ed with human bodies. When the verdict of “not guilty”? was pronounced by the jury, after an hour of consultation, a hurrah of approval was uttered by the crowd in court. When Keanedy was found gnilty there was a hurra of approval too.— The lawyers of the defence, three out of the four, Sovies, Gryimes and Masureau, no mean weight either [ assure you, were taken by the po- pulace, and conducted in triumph on their shoul- ders, at 6 o’clock in the morning to their houses, at least six Or seven squares cistance from the court. The verdict was known by all with aston- ishment. Hatch’s friends remained silent, and others raved mad against it. He may console him- self with knowing that the ladies are in favor of ut, on account of it recurring forthe sake of one of them. But the Irish are enraged against it, and they are loud as thunder in their curses, for yoa mivst know that Kennedy is an Irishman, and they publicly say, that now they won’t dare to condemn him to be hanged, and that if they try to do it they will rescue him even at the cost of their hves; and! assure you they may try it, but they wit! fiad the wrong customer, asthe New Orleans police is not tobe trifled with, The Italian Opera is doing a first rate business, The house is nightly filled ; Friday night they played Marino Faliero, a most splendid opera, to a most brilliant and fashionable house.

Arnau. 9.—The Alhegania Circuit Court, for the South- ern District, was opened this day, when the new Judge and bis associate took their upen the Bench. A g¢ number of the members of the Bar were in atten- dance. The following members of the Grand Jury were called and sworn :— Thomas Denny, Foreman; Albert Ayres, William V. Brady, Daniel D.

It is not only ri ry citizen in possession ¢ ccime, to present the cai nd Jury, with a view to inquire into, and for the prose- cution of the offenders, if tound guilty.

Three of the cases on the calendar, involve the charge of assault with a dangerous weapon, by a master on @ seaman on the high seas, on bowrd an ‘American vessel. This is made a felony by act of Congress, and punishable by fine and imprisonment. ‘The act declares, that“ any person onthe high seas, arm of the ses, bay or river, on board any vessel of the United Slates ; or any citizen thereof, with intent to kill, shall use any dangerous weapen, such person shall be punished fine (aot excecding three thousand dollars,) or im- ; risoument (not exceeding three years,) according to the nature of the offence.” The accused in these cases, are not in custody. It is important, however, it guilty, that au in- dietment should be found, with a view to e' the“ sta- ations,” which fixes the limit to two years a‘ter the commission of the offence. Otherwise it would operate as abarto the finding of theindictment. 1{ the pereon could be apprehended, it would be no bar. There is another case on the list for cru] and unnatural pu ment, by a master on the high seas; upen ascaman, motives of revenge end hated. act declares that “if any master on the high seas, or any waters, should, from malice, hatred, or revenge, or any justifiable cause, be guilty ef cruel and unnatural punishment towards any seaman, or withhold irom them any suitable food, every such offender shall be punished by fine, ond imprison- ment according to the nature of the offence.” There are two eases involving ® charge of perjury. Thisis also made afelony punishable by fineand imprisonment. The Sot of Congress expressly declares “ ff any person being a witness on oath, which isto be taken, shall, by taking of such an oath knowingly and wrongfully, swear falsely such oath, he shall be ound guilty of (Perlury, and find in a sum of $1,000, or imprisonment for « term of five yea It declares that, it before any officer the truth of facts contained in the libel are sworn to, the person know- ing such to be false, either in part or entire, heshall be feand guilty ef perjury.

The conditions were, that the Aj vertisement should be inserted for one week in @ con- spicuous place, and the attention of capitalists directed to it by a notice in the editorial columns. On the trial, the plaintiffs produced one advertisement cut frem their pe- per and parol testimony to prove that it had been inserted six times in @ Conspicuous piece in their columns. They aiso produced parol evidence to prove that the attention of capitalists had been directed to the advertisement by a notice in the editorial columns. This ence was ob- jected to, on the part of the defendant, 2s being inadmissi- bie. First, because secondsry evidence could not be given to prove that the Mobile Register and Journal con. tained an” advertisement ior the sale of the New York He- vald establishment, the paper itself being the best evi- deace of the fact, and as it was, at the time, the pro of the plaintiffs, and in their possession, they ought to bave produced it. Second, because secondary evidenee could not be given to prove the contents of an editorial article contained in the Mobile Register and Journal, the poper itself being at the time in the possesion of end un- der the control of the’plainti—fs, who ought to have pro duced it to speak for itself.
