On the 23d of October, ‘44. there were deposited in the Patriotic Bank $150,000 of | the public moneys, exclusive of the moneys on band, of | contingent fund of the House. Up to that time, during MNalty’s administration, there had been no other bank of the public moneys, except the con- nt fund deposits of the Clerk o Honse. | . Stanrox, for defence, submitted a bill filed in Chancery by the United States, setting forth the liab ties of accused, and that thers are moneys to his cre of from two to four thousand dollars in the hands of Moses H. Grinnell, which the prosecution in said bill asks may be arrested and appropriated towards liquida- i deficit charged against accused, as Clerk of the he being represented as insolvent. Testimony upon this indictment of $10,000 closed. Mr. Fenoat, for the United States, took up the expo- sition of the law in this case ; r the demurrer of de- fendant’s counsel, evtered before the Circuit Court last June, and the opinion of the said Court, overruling the demurrer, and sustaining the irdictment, upon argu- ments from law, exhibiting that an indictment or indict- ments for embezzlement of the public moneys cannot be restricted to the narrow and specific requisitions set forth in demurrer. {Grand Jury called over, and sent out.) vir, Fespais, for the United States, then read the in- structions he should ask of the Court to be given to the Jury—substantially, that ifthe Jury shouid find from the testimony that the $10,000 of the indictment were trans- ferred from the Patriotic Bank in this city, by order of M’Nalty, to Sage, Suydam & Co., and thence transferred | to said E G. Woodward, of Oh.o, in pursuance of orders from the prisoner, in payment, as given in the evidence, and that if it shall a ry that these were public moneys, these evidences shall be deemed facts suficient for the iuference of embezzlement of the public moneys. Mr. Stanton objected to the instructions praye’l. Mr. Canvisce disclaimed the legitimacy of the instrec- tions prayed. There was nothing in the laws of Mary- and, nor of this country, authorizing instructions as to the sufficiency of evidence to the establishment of guilt, in prosecutions of this kind, at least. ‘Pho debate upon the prosecutor's instructions was furt er contested betweon the opposing counsel. Court ¢ecided that instructions must embrace all the evidence. Fre, sd read the instructions asked to be given to | the Yury. The Court remarked on this prayer, that th an indictment under on act of Congress, (acts of ’40 and of ‘il, a remnant of Sub-Treasu- ry law defining embezzlement of public moneys and the penalty,) and said that if it shall appear to the Jury tha. the moueys in question were transferred by order of accused from the Patriotic Bank to the dispo- sition of Sage, Suydam & Co, with a view in any man- ner whatever, of converting said moneys to use of de- fendant, either by investments in property or merchan- diee, or loaning, with or without interest, under the | perte, and tyrannic: Bink of Amoriog. Agalb, i the Patriot Bang ferthe money to the Treasury, and keep it inthe under the eye of Congress, as required by That would have been his course, gentlemen, bed only drawn it out the money ; it was drawn out. for. the rellef of Thera was, then, no oceasion for these remarkable tranaters of these $10,000; [ shall goon now to show that it wasaloan, or a joint investment with Woodward for speculative purposes. |The learned prosecutor read d claration of accused before the House of Representativ that he had not made a disposition of a dollar of the p lic fuods unlawfully, but that he made deposits wit! in- dividuals on the ampleat securities, which he would show on the arrival o! clerk, (Mr. Kershaw.) But he had not met his word—ner made good his declarations. ‘The learned prosecutor recurred to the evidence of Mr. Leonard, sustaining the character of Dr. Woodward as | safo depository. Mr, Fendallj argued that the Doctor’ | operations were made for the benefit of Eastern exchange; that it was not the practice of transferring Eastern funds to the credit of Dr. Woodward, in Mount Vernon, in Ohio. Mr. F.re-adverted to the protested drafts,and argued thi accused was cognizant of their existence, when he ordered this transfer of $10,000 to the credit of Dr Wood- war!, Altogether, the transfer was injudicious, and as applied to Woodward's uses, in controvention of law. We show a transaction marked with all the evidence of a loaa, or an investment—a private transaction with the public money, and yet we anticipate that the defence will argue that this was a deposit. If this be so, the law of Congress isa nullity ; for what possible transaction can that liw have a reference to, if not to transactions of this class! Upon the face of it, the act bears all the evidence of a prima facie’ evidence of em- bezzlement, according to the law. The evidence shows that the Secretary of the Treasury did ¢emand of the accused, the payment over of the public funds in his hands. {Read the evidence of Mr. Randolph, of the call upon accused a Coleman's, on the 6th of February, '45.} The prosecution enticipated the defence would be that the Clerk's accounts had not been audited, and, there- fore, could not be honored at the treasury. This might be presented as an excuse, had the accused acted as he should have done to get his accounts audited by the House Committee. No excuses of accused that he did not get notices to attend the Committee would avail him, It was his duty to attend withouta notice. Had he been innocent, he would have given them no ro: nor night, in the settlement of these difficulties personal diterence is alloged as the reason of non- presentation :of accused before the Committee—th same of Mr. Kershaw; and Millardgoes. But he wi there himself on the 3ist January, and could have been there ottener, and ought to have been. Mr. Fendall re- terred to the purchases of Clerk made in disobedience of law, in not previously advertising the same. Besides that, the prices paid were too high. [Read the law quiring advertising for public stationery, Ke., with y to the lowest price.] The law is dated August, It was passed to prevent the present extravagance ritism—it was dictated by sound policy for the secnrity of the public interest, and to prévent extra vaant acts of favoritism on the part of public officers q Hicer purchases in defiance of law—and the com- mittee could not pass his accounts. But what dil they do? Unwilling to do injustice to Mr.M *Nulty, they suggested that he should ask of the House to allow for these purchases, the articles having come to the use of the House. of the charges against him. Suppose, however, these 14 or $15,000, are all correct—making his vouchers amount to $185,000, and add the $13,000 in the Patriotic Bank, and the $1600 in the Banx of America—you still have a deficit against him of $18,000, which in part may be accounted for sn this indictment. | ‘The $185,000 is the extent of what could be done in his favor, allowing the illegal purchases suspended by the committee. With all these views of these transactions, the prose- cutor justified the prompt and decisive action of the House of Representatives, and of the Committee of Ac- counts, in view of the preservation of the public funds, the public inter and pfficial fidelity, While, the prosecutor regretted the fosition of the accused—he congratulated him on the able counsel he had secured. He keew that all that could be done to establish his innocence weuld be dune. From the great preparations they had been making, however, the learned prosecutor presumed the necessity that would perhaps arise of a | reply in behalf of the Government |The jury retired at the close ofthe prosecutor's argu: ment, for a bite of bread anda glass of water, and such other provisious as are supplied by the colored lady in the vestibule. | Mr, Stanroy rosa to reply. ‘The people were Curious and silent, anticipating a powerful argument for the prisoner. After addresssng the Court and jury, he proceeded. It was said of one of the mos: distuoguished statesmen in the councils of the na- tion, that on one occasion being asked what institution of ail others he would preserve, as the dearest and.the satest of all, he replied, ** Trial by Jury So great and invaluable did yhe fathers of the constitution esteem this institution, that they secured it by a specific clause in the national constitution ; and further, so invaluable was this privilege regarded to the security of individual liderty, that in the amendments to the constitution, a moro particular clause in bebalf of trial by jury was in- serte’. In no case of criminal prosecution was the valne of this institution more clearly exhibited than in this cause, before this Court and this jury. Mr. 8. read the resolution of the House requiring the President to prosecnta the accused, and the President's letter or- dering the prosecution accordingly. The learned counsellor denounced these proceudings as hasty, ex ; the result of an nngoverned preju- dice against the accused. He was arraigned one day and di arged, and ordered over to punishment onthe next; was only permitted to speak by privilege from his Mir. Stant he process of trials be- forea jury—the form of prosecution required by law, and the ditference between trials before other tribunals before a jury, in that, before the last, the prisoner is to be adjudged innocent until his guilt shall have been established, or made fully to appear. After clearly elu- cidating this favorable distinction in behalf of the ac- cused, the eloquent counsellor proceeded to the exami nation of the'indictment before the court. (Read the indictment] -the first count charging the convet- sion of $10,000 of the public moneys to the use of the accused; defined the specific nature of the offence cuarged ‘against the prironer.] Mr. 8. argued that all the counts in the indictment could not be true—the first charging the accused with converting this money to hi own use ; the second, with investing it in merchandise in conjunction with Dr. Woodward; the third, in loan- ing the money to Dr. Woodward. Tnis course was pro- per for the prosecutor, as it was necessary to cover the whole ground of the proof. But the counsel for the the Government had not been able to make out, of which of these charges the accused was guilty. Had he specified a loan, it would have been rebutted—hat e_assemblage of act aforesaid the jury must find a verdict against the prisoner; and furtter, if they believe that a demand was | made by the Secretary of the Treasury upon the accu- sed tor a settlement of his accounts, and that he refused to answer as required by law, then there is sufficient evidence for a finding against the defen {The jury having returned after a bri ur. Fexpaci, for the government, opened his argu- meut before the jury. He adverted to the defalcations under Mr. Van Buren’s administration, and the Pres; dent's appeal for more stringent enactments against em- bezslers of the public funds, and to the law repealing | the SubgTreasury Act of August, 1941, introducing a more stringent provision for the punishment of de- faulters, which made the reiusal of a public officer to account for public meneys on requisition, prima Jocie evidence of embezzlement, and subject to the | penalty of the offence, upon this testimony alone The learned counsellor dwelt upon the paramount im- portance of sustaining the integrity of the government, | by ‘a faithful administration of its functions through its administrators. The learned prosecutor read from Arch- bold, that it is only in doubtful or balanced cases that evidences of good character can be weighed by the,jury, to a presumption favorable to the accused. ‘The law in: ferred otherwise—that the act was the offence, and not the intention. The learned counsellor for the govern- ment admitted the weight of the testimony of the nu- merous and highly respectable witnesses who testified, | on Saturday last, to the unimpeached character of the prisoner, prior to this accusation. Upon this point, how- he wanted no higher evidence of good characte: than the appointment of the accused to the responsible office of Clerk of the House, by a Jarge majority of irs members. That was evidence enough of the standing of accused upto that time. But there is always a begin ning in crime; and from that declension the character of the individual is deteriorated. Mr. Fendall cited from the law, act of June 1789, requiring an oath of publi officers to support the {constitution of the United State: and such an oath being required of the House, from this fact he was a public officer. from act of 1815, requi- ring bonds of Secretary of Senate and Clerk of the House, for the faithful application and{preservation of the coutin- ent funds of the respective houses— Read the bond of C. .M’Nulty, B.

Woodward—produced ihe check by means of which the $10,000 was remitted to the Bank of America—referred to the letters between M?Nulty and Sage, Suydam & Co., to one ordering the $10,000 to Bank of America, and the other stating the pe cpied 2 order, The prosecution presented the fact, that on the 11th November, accused nad no funds in the Bank of America, ani that, therefore, the pay- ments amounting to $10,000, to Dr. Woodward, after the Jith, must have been made from the $10,000 of the con- it. ef absence, } | tingent fund transferred to Patriotic Bank.

The learned prosecutor in- forred that the opposing counsel would ad, that trom and after the fourth July, 1544, the triot banks having expired, defendant was not bound to confine his deposites to the Patriot Bank, or to any other bank in this Distr Ir, Fendall argued, a bank was a bank without a charter; a place whers money was de. posited for occasional use. ‘The prisoner,fron his acta, hed #0 construed it-so had the Secretary of tue ‘Treas. ury, his superior officer, in the placing in the Patriotic Bavk of $150,000 of the public moneys, Hadthe Bank failed, M'Nulty could not have been held responsible— nor liable in any way, neither moraily or officially, Yet here is a sudden transfer of $10,000 from this bank, and without any reason for its tranfer, it is carried to the ink of America. Why not let it stay there? That was « chartered bank. If the accused had a sua yicion of the salety of the Patriotic Bank, it was praiseworthy thing to remove this money to the ‘ | fer, &c.,” to the c'erk of ti he chosen the charge of investment, it could have been rebutted—had he chosen the conversion of the money to the use of the accused, it could have been overturned. But he has chosen neither the first, the second, nor the third indictment. Hy has left the discovery of the speci- fic offence in the hands of the jury. It would be the pro- vi however, of the counsel for the detend- wut to prove him innocent in tce aggregate and in the detail. Mr, Stanton then proceeded to show that the ori- | ginal Sub-Treasury Act,in its penal provisions, applied to sof the mint, to collectors and receivers of the c funds, and not to the clerk ofthe House, he not be- ing included in the list of persons named in the act. And the learned gentleman argued that the act of *41, repeal- ing the sub-Treasury act, (from the edimission of tho Attorney for the United States) did not enlarge the cata- logue of officers of the § reasury act. But the nsel for accused argued that the very language cf law implied a limitation in the list of officers held nsible to the penalty of the law of 41. Mr. Stan- ontinued an ingenious argument to show that the law of “41 did ‘not, in its application, ioclude the Clerk of the House, by the ceasonable construc. tion from the original Sub-Treasury act of 1840. if the jury should arrive at this conclusion, there would be an end of the case. But if they did not come to euch conclusion, there was another point in the law to be examined. The act of 1841 reads, that “ ifany officer charged with the safe kee) jing,” &c. Mr. 8. construed this “ charged,” to mean by law, and asked the law charging the “sale keeping, trans- 0 ue House. The uct of 1823, again requires the Secretary of the Senate and the clerk of the House to renderin an annual statement of their expenditures, &c. Where is the evidence here, that the accused was by Jaw an officer charged with the “safe keeping, transfer,” &c.? There was uo law for it. ‘The practice of the House clerk, in issuing requisitions for money, had grown up feom aufferance—by usage ; and not by law. If the jury believed thus, there is no need of further trouble © Bat the jury may think differ- ently, and it becomes necessary to continue the exami- nation of the argument of the prosecution. Assuming, then, that the clerk of the House is amofficer under the law, whet are the acts of criminality of which the ac- ensed is indicted? Tekin charge is, ihat Caleb J. MD ed ia m rchandize. There w: that Caleb J.

Stanton read from Sir William Jones, the definition loan. He referred to the remark of the prosect his opening argument, that the loan was forthe joi of the accused and Dr. Woodward, and cited from Jus tice Story, vol. 1, p. 156, that this no longer a loan. See also Chancellor Kent. A loan was a contract—lt must be—there could not be @ ivan without an under. tanding between two parties. There has been no proof adcuced to show, then, that,this money was disposed of ina loan. Mr. 8, adverted to the Bank revulsion of 1587 as resulting from their loans of the public money. And the Sub-Treasury act of “40 was intended for the secu- rity of the public moneys from such loans. They were bona fide loans. Upon the third charge—“ the conver sion “of the money by accused to bis own wse"—now this had to be proved—it was not to be established by presumption, or supposition, or assumption, or by guessing. The evidence must be clear and conclusive LF it eopentea just as een in the third, as in the fi and second instances.
