Was in order, or not; but, at all events, they were of a | charscter to arouse the indignation of Bowman, and he stood up and charged White with having twice Hed, repeating the expression. Mr. White turned upon him, and struck him. ‘The Court interfered, and the parties Immediately submitted to its authority. His | Honor concluded by stating that if the parties had | anything to say, he was ready to hear them. Mr. Bowman then rose and said, that with regard to | himself, he had little to say; he was not the aggressor. | his opponent had indulged ina course of commentary | not warranted by the evidence, and he knew | that a portion of those remarks, aud which was not the least galling, were not heard by the | Court, from the position and distance between his Honor and Mr. White. There were certainly some of the expreasions which his Honor did not hear—his oppo- nent had called him (Bowman) a“ New Zealander,” and charged him with keeping up an amatory corres- pondence with a nogro wench, and that during her ox- amination on the prosecutions out of which this trial had arisen, he (Bowman) had by nods and winks kept Up a communication with her, and caused her to change or vary her testimony at pleasure, none of which facts have been sworn to in this cause. "He would fur- ther remark, that during the trial he took] very little part init. He neither opened the case,examined a witness, or summed up the cause; the whole of his time was taken up in takingznotes; yet notwithstand- ing, during the whole course’ of the’ trial, he was per- sonally attacked by the counsel. He had nothing more to say, but submit himsctf to the judgment of the court and bow to its decision. Mr. Wurre then rose and said, that he was sorry such a renconter should have.taken place betwoenghim and the gentleman. after so short a professional acquain- tance. It was true. as he remarked, that he (Mr. White) had been commenting on the conduct of the gentlo- man with some degree of severity, but not on his con- duct during this trial. Itfwas on his conduct on the different prosecutions instituted by the defendants against Carpenter, ‘The remarks whioh he had made in reference to the negro woman, Phebe Childs, were playfully made, and so he believed the court and the audience understood them; but there were other circumstances connected with the conduct of the gentleman which he felt it his duty not only to his client, but to his own profession, to comment on. He then went on to ¢ that all his remarks were based on the evidence in the cause, and were strictly within the rule; he said he ted that the words ever reached his ears. or that he had not been able to preserve his self possession. He then tendered an apology to the court, und added that having once vio- lated its dignity, he would not be a beggar for its mer- cy; whatever punishment may be inflicted on his op- ponent he would cheerfully suffer the same. The court, after making some further remarks on the conduct of both parties, ordered them to pay a fine of $100 each, and to be committed to the jail of the city of New York until the fine was paid. The fines were imme- diately paid and the parties discharged.

Hénry C. Beale andJohn N. Beach, vs. Roderick ry and Roderick Terry, Jr.—This was an action on case to recover damages for a breach of contract. On the 25th March, 1847, the firm of Clarke snd Coleman entered intoa contract with the defendants, of which the following is a copy :—“ Fer value received, wo have this day sold and ere to deliver to Messrs. Terry & Co., in th of New York, 2000 barrels superfine C flour,City mills, Rochester,’ at $0 per ‘barrel, payable on delivery of each parcel, to be delivered at our option in all the month of June next, in parcels of not less than 200 barrels each; any variation from superfine to be settled at the usual rates of difference. New York, March 25th, 1847, C. & Co.” On the 25th May follow- ing, Terry & Co. assigned the contract, and gave a guar- anty for its fulfilment to the plaintiffs, in considera- tion of $4500, and an order on Clarke and Coleman for its delivery. ‘Clarke and Coleman were unable to fulfil thelr contract, there being none of the “City mills, Rochester,”” brand in the market on the 30th of June, the last day for delivering the flour. The plaintiffs sought to recover the difference between the highest price of flour, which was on the 2lst June, andthe con- tract price. "The defence set up was, performance, It appeared that on the day the contract matured, Clarke and Coleman called on the plaintiffs, and offered them flour of a quality equal to the “ City mills, Rochester,” but a different brand, which they refused. ‘They then offered them the difference between the contract price and what it would sell for on that day, which was alse declined. ‘The plaintiffs proved that on the 21st June, the brand mentioned in the contract was sclli $8 75. One of their witn 500 barrels on hand on the 30th June, and that he was offered $8 50 a barrel for it. Tho defendant's witnesses swore that $7 25 was the highest price on that day. The defendant's counsel strongly urged that the last clause in the contract viz: “any variation from super- fine to be settled at the usual rates of differonce,”” mo- difted the contract so as not to limit Clarke and Cole- man to the delivery of the “City mills, Rochester,” brand, and that, at ali events, it should be taken imcon- nection with the offer made by these parties to deliver flour of an equal quality, in mitigation of damages. His honor charged that the plaintiffs were not bound to take flour of any other brand than that mentioned in the contract; that in regard to the question of da mages, they were to be based on the price of flour of thi brand on the 30th June. The defendants had all that day to perform their contract, and whatever the price of flour then was, whether much or little, they, plaintiffs, could not have more or less, ‘The jury found that the price of flour was on the 30th June, $8, and rendered a verdict for plaintiffs for $4246, which in- cludes interest from that day.

Scott in Mexico longer than he expected. Those orders relate to some matters before the Court of Inquiry, which will have to be in- vestigated in Mexico. It was originally Gen. Scott's intention to proceed immediately from Vera Cruz to New York, by ea. and to avoid as much as possible all public parade and display. But as there are no steam- ers in Vera Cruz, destined for New York. he will no doubt be compelled to come to New Orleans. “Without wishing to thwart any of the brave old General's de: sires, We cannot but rejoice over the accident, which willenable New Orleans to display to tho laurclled chief, the deep gratitude and warm admiration which they entertain for his splendid services.

Importations via New York- It has been a question, says the British Colonist, whether British manutactured goods, imported via New York, and sent forward under bond to Cana- da, would be admitted on the same terms as if ir ported by the St, Lawrence under the Sa ustoms act. The question has been set at rest by the Com- missioner of Customs, and the interpretation given by that officer to the new law is that, upon which the Customs Department will act. The subjoined opinion has been elicited by a letter asking for in- formation 6n the point, addressed by Messrs. Shaw, Turnbull & Co., of this city, to the Customs De: partment; and. the Commissioner having forwar eda copy of his reply to the ‘Toronto Board. of Trade, conceiving that it might possibly be of in- terest to the board, we beg to acknowledge the po- liteness of the secretary, in having made us a quainted therewith, and in enabling us to subjoin the following cory of the letter in questior J.

Mr. Joseph Burk, a merchant on Balderston street, set a spring-gun in his warehouse, which had been frequently robbed of late. Yesterday, having occasion to enter the room where the trap was set, and forgetting it was there, he trod on the trap and received the full load in his arm, which also grazed his body. Itis apprehended that he may lose his arm; the necessity of amputation is immi- nent.

Purtapetrma, May 13, 1848. The Trial of Langfeld, the Murderer—The Mamac Murderer—Independence Hall—Suicide, §c., §. ‘The trial of Langfeld, for the murder of Mra. Rademacher, is fixed for Monday next, when the excitement that agitated our city at the time that awful tragedy occurred, will, probably, be renewed. There will, probably, be some difficulty in obtain- ing a jury. Wm. E. Lehman, jr., and N. P. Brown, Esgqs., the counsel for Bechtel, (who is now a raving maniac,) made an informal application to the Court this morning, to have the prisoner removed from the county ane to the insane department of the Blockley Alms-house, offering to prove that their client is now insane, that the malady is hereditary in his family, and that his reason was impaired a short time previous to the commission of the crime. They stated that his violence was so great that no clothing could be kept upon his person, and that he was chained to the floor of his cell, and his hands also fettered. In reply, the Court stated that the application should, properly, come from the inspec- tors of the prison, before any thing could be done in regard to the prisoner. | The city councils last evening passed resolutions tendering the use of Independence Hall to General Cadwalader, in which to receive the congratula- tions of those ‘bodies and his fellow-citizens gen- erally, on his return home to his native city. A resolution was also introduced, fedenng the use of this same room to the whig national con- vention, but it was opposed by some of the more sensible members of the select council. It, how- ever, passed that body, but was defeated in the other branch. The resolution was only introduced, for the purpose of making a complimentary offer to the convention, as its small size renders it entirely unfit, and arrangements have already been made to meet inthe Museum. Mr. Chandler in opposin the resolution, alluded tothe hall being now aS wt in mourning in respect to the memory of Mtr. Adams, and said that as he felt much interest in the success of the candidate to be nominated by the convention, he would, therefore, prefer that the assembly should meet in some place less gloomy and ominous than it now appears. i .

Cincinwatt, May 5, 1848. Movements and Counter-Movemente of the Friends of Mr. Clay and Mr. Corwin—Arrival of Mr. Corwin at Cincinnati—Revived Hopes of his Friends of his Nomination——Opinions of several Whig Presses against Mr. Clay's Nomination—General Taylor's Last Letter. In a lotter I despatched from the interior of the State, I stated one of the effects of Mr. Clay's “ consenting" letter, was that of an impression among his friends, who, notwithstanding his long silence, did not cast about to express an opinion in favor of any other whig, but were for Mr. Clay all the time, that some arrangement may have been made by which the friends of Mr. Corwin would share an undue portion of the spoils for aiding in the election of Mr. Clay; and that in reference to such a supposed stato of things, Mr. Ewing left his home at Lancaster, and proceeded with all possible speed towards Ashland, and was still tarrying in Cin- cinnati. On my arrival here, yesterday, I found that similar feeling had been evidenced here; but that Mr. Ewing was satisfied from the explanation of Mr. Clay, mado through o special confidential messenger des- patched from this city, that he still regards Mr. Corwin 4s among his rivals for the Presidency, and not among the least formidable ! And it is now also fully developed, that the apparent “falling in”? with Mr. Clay’s “ consent” to be the whig candidate, on the part of the friends of Mr. Corwin, was designed to draw him out on the “new issue’? be- foro the country, which, involving as it does, the ques- tion of admitting into the Union any new State whose constitution allows negro slavery, they suppose he would take such a position in regard to it as to remove entirely his chance of a nomination, In the midst of the moves which these impulses gave ise to, all classes wero not a little surprised on day be- foro yesterday, at the sudden appearance, in their midst, of the veritablasHon, Thomas Corwin himself, and evidencing to all who have called upon him at hisroom in the Pearl Street House, a confidence of successin his own. nomination, which inspires his friends to renewed ox- ertions. In fact, that he has laid aside his hitherto sang-froid declarations, that he could not reasonably expect a nomination at this time, but had no objection to receive the compliment of being proposed by the “ Ohio delegation,” have given way to a desire that his wostern friends should extend their efforts in his behalf for a little higher “glory” than that of a complimen- tary support, It in whispered in whig circles, that Mr. Corwin has been a0 highly flattered by hiis reception during the re- cont visit he made through the New. England States, as to have become quite sanguine that if Mr. Clay was out of the way, the nomination would be conferred upon himself.” ‘The similarity of topic, ad even of language used, during yesterday, by the known friends of Mr. Corwin, was 0 striking as to induce the re- mark of three out of four whig gentlemen, in reply to the ordinary inquiry of “What's going in politics to- day 2?” that the friends of Mr. Corwin must be speak- ing “per order,”’ in saying that but for the sympathy felt towards Mr. Clay personally, by the whigs in. the eust, and the dread of the loco-foco hurricane of thun- der which would be hurled upon them for deserting the “embodiment of whig principles,” Mr. Corwin would receive the support of tho entire New England delegation; and would, at all events, receive it, if Mr. Clay was not nominated by the first ballot | This being a train of representation of which no- thing had been said before the arrival of Mr. Corwin, but was on yesterday in the mouth of each of his known friends, it has quite naturally been inforred that the assertion, if not made by “authority,” was at least in accordance with Mr. Corwin's own opinion. It is presumed that Mr. Corwin visits his friends in the Wort thus personally, instead of relying upon the Jess certain process of correspondence, that he may convince them of their chances of success by pressing hin name with duo diligence and perseverance, in his own inimitable eloquence. Again I beg leave to annoupce to the readers of the Heraid, that the assertion advanced by many, that Mr. Clay's + consenting” letter has decided the action of the whig convention, is made without due obser- vation and a full knowledge of the fecling pervading the whig ranks, and will soon be an “obsolete iden,” In addition to the daily evidence we have of the de- termination of the friends of Mr. Corwin to press him to the consideration of the convention, there is daily more and more opposition to Mr. Clay's nomination thrown out by the press of Ohio, The Scotio Gazette, an influential whig journal, published in the ancient metropolis, Chillicothe, whore editor for some time had the “Taylor” flag up, but has shown a willingnoss to again support Mr. Clay, has condensed view of the sentiments of several prominent whig presses, which I beg leave to present, not only to the consideration of the readers of the Herald in New York, but elsewhere: — *“ Since Mr. Clay announced hie willii to acer tion for the Presidency, and submited hie slatens te the nent eat convention, in common with those of other distinguished whigs, the whig reas, in the herformance of its bounden Siyy—inty to editors, ders, the country and Mr. Cl y disse the = ha “f ne Sietion co calmly and coolly int highly reapectable and influential jou Herald—the \endl ing whig paper on the Wie bereente into a long args nt on the subject.

Alas’ who is there likely to evidence any feeling, one way or the other, of what the honest. plain speaking old soldier says? “I shall engage in no schemes, no combinations, no intrigues,” says the General; yet, to my certain knowledge, his name has not been used in this city in any other connection, so far as the Presidency ia con- corned, With all the professed friendship for the old hero, it is doubtful whether his name will be found among the ballotings of the national convention !

At a meeting of the stockholders of the Dela’ and Raritan Canaland Amboy Railroad and Trans. portation Company, a resolution passed giving the di- rectors of said companies discretionary power to sub- scribe or not (ag they may think best) $500,000 of the stock of the Belvidere Delaware Railroad Company, as authorized by and in accordance with the act passed by the Legislature of New Jersey for that purpose.

The amount of coal transported on the Schuylkill Canal, for the week ending the 4th instant, was 10,240 tons; previously, 36,992 tons; total for tho season, 47,233 tons. The business on this canal is increasing weekly, as the number of boats in operation become larger. The only thing now wanting is facilities to get coal to market as rapidly as it is prepared along the line. Tho canal is in admirable order, and its capacity is equal to an immonse business. The Reading Railroad is doing a fair amount of busi- ness; but the prospect is, that tho aggregate will not much exceed that of last year. Even with the incomo of 1847, and the reported net income, there is no rea- | son why this concern should not ultimately be re- i lieved from its financial embarrassments. The act | which has recently passed the legislature of Pennsyl- vania, authorizing an issue of four and a half millions of proferred stock, will, if judiciously managed, relieve the old stock of a great deal of the fancy charactor it now possesses. The old stock will be in a much better position behind preforred stock, than behind mortgage or any other bonds. Whether tho bondholders would accept the exchange is a doubtful question, as their security now is undoubted, and the paymont of inte- rest is certain; whereas, by the transfer or oxchange, the security would be depreciated, without, perhaps; ondangering much the punctuality of the payment of dividends or interest. We see no other way to extri- cate the company from the embarrasements with which they are surrounded, than by an issuo of preforrod | they were about 1000. Manufacturers were tl ing about one million of dollars net. If this one million of dollars could aye beon applied entirely to the pays ment of interest on the indebtedness, it would have paid a handsome per cent on the whole amount of lia- bilities, bonds, and stock ; but as a portion of it was appropriated to construction account, a dividend on | the capital stock was made in new shares, We will not stop here to question the policy of this movement, as there are many arguments for and against; but will proceed to show that the finances of the company are not really in such a desperate position as many would have the public believe. It is true its debt is large, and, unfortunately, its liabilities are in a bad shape; but the road is an immense concern, and its importance to the community at large is great. Every man, wo- man, and child in the New England States, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and several other States, are interested in the succoss of this railroad, either ia the hands of this or somo other company, par- ticularly on account of the important bearing it has upon the price of coal; and we cannot for a moment doubt the ability of the management to relieve the concern from the burden which now presses on it. The whole attention of the direc- tion should be turned to the bonds; the stock is a secondary consideration—let that take care of itself—provide for the payment of the dircet debt of the Company, by an increase of tho indirect debt, upon reasonable terms, and place all the creditors upon apar, Then, and not till then, should dividends be made on the stock, and if they should be- gin as low as two or three per cent., the shares would command a better price in the market, and the whole concern would be upon a better basis. The Reading Railroad Company have almost the monopoly of a transportation business which will give it a gross in- come ranging from two totwo and a half millions of dol- lars per annum, and from this it can earn a net income of at least one million of dollars, This will pay a divi- dend of seven per cent on twelve millions of dollars, and leave a surplus of one hundred sixty thousand dol- lars per annum for contingencies, or for the nucleus of asinking-fund for the reduction of the capital of the company. It therefore appears that there is a prospect of this company becoming extricated from the position in which financiering upon an extensive scale, in the face of a tainted credit, has placed it.

From the first commencement of this road to the close of the last year, this company have been under heavy annual expenditures on account of construc- tion, independent of the current running ox- ponses. This has absorbed not only the whole of the net earnings, but has involved the company in dim- culties, from which, at the time there appear no pos~ i} sible way of extricating it. For tho purpose of carry- | ing out the plans of the company, and for furnishing Proper facilitios to carry on, as expeditiously as possi- ble, the coal transportation business, immense debts have been contracted, and the credit of the concern strained to the utmost. The road is now comploto: and its furniture and machinery equal to any eme gency ;' the oxpenditures on account of construction, havo, therefore, ceased, and the work is, without doubt, tho most oxtensive ono of the kind in the world, With the exception of the usual wear and tear of machinery, and tho necessary road repairs, the running expenses will hereafter be the only outlay required, leaving the net income, after deducting that item, for the sole Withont expressing its individual ehoice, the Herald i clearly of tye opinion that Mr. Clay ought not tote nominated; though pledging its hearty support, if the choles of the convention should 6 ttle pon him. ‘Tie ‘Marietta.
