Buperlor Court—Special Term, Before Hon, Judge Sandford. Tune 9.—In the case of Smith Coddington ond Wife vs. James Watson Webb. Colonel James Watson Webb appeared tn person before the court, this day, to make an + parte statement in this suit, instituted by the plaintiffs against him, He hada copy of the New York Herald in hiy hand, and said that ho had received that paper at his Nesidence in West- chester county, about twelve o’clock on Saturday; and that he then learned for the first time, that it was his duty to have appeared before this Court on the day Previous; and that in consequence of his abssnce, an order had been issued in the care of Smith Coddington and his wife, which he felt it his duty to ask the Court¢o revoke. Colonel Webb said, that he had not applied te any counsel for advice and assistance in this cause; but that taking counsel from bis own senso of right, he had presented himself before this Court at the very earliest moment, first to apologise for what is alleged to have beon disrespect towards the Court, and then to protest against his being ordered to surrender papers in his possession, to parties who, in their application for them, prove conclusively, that they have no claim whatever to control them. Court.—You must apply by affidavit. Colonel Webb—I hold an affidavit in my band; and I hope that the Court will bear in mind, that it is the hur- tied work of # layman, who does not pretend to any knowledge of law, and who has not directly or indirectly consulted with counsel in regard to his present course, 1am acting, sir, from what I deem a sense of duty in the Premises; and your Honor will perceive, before I get through, that I do not desire to retain: possession of these letters, but simply to insure thelr being placed under the control of the parties to whom they actually belong. Colonel Webb then proceeded to read the following aMidavit:— sith Coddington and Mary I. his wife, against James Watson Webb.—City and County of New octets Wat- son Webb, the defendant in. this cause, says, that when the papers in this suit were served on him, on the 4th instant, be read the order giving him twenty days to answer the bill of complaint, and also the order of the Court directing him to appear in Court on the 6th in- but being ignorant of the practices of courts of law, he supposed that he was allowed twenty days in which to make his appearance. And, therefore, being unwilling to consult counsel in a case of sueh delicacy, and not supposing it possible there would. be any pubii- cation of the complaint and affidavits, took the papers with him into the country, and wrote a letter to George Buckham, Esq., offering to place the letters referred to, in the hands of a highly respectable olergyman of this city, upon a withdrawal of the bill of complaint; and that it Was not till two o'clock. en Saturday, that he discoy- ered it was his duty to have appeared before the Supe- rior Court on the 6th instant. And, whereas a default was taken against him, and an order issued requiring bim to surrender certain letters in his possession into the custody of Andrew Warner, in compliance with the prayer of the complainants in this suit, this defendant prays that said order may be can- celled, on the ground, that if the bill of complaint filed in this suit be true; and if it be true, as is alloged, that the said Mary I. Coddington was not’ seduced from the paths of virtue by Nathaniel P. Willis in said bill of com- plaint named; and if it be true, as all the parties thereto ‘swear, that her correspondence with said Willis was of an innocent character, and known to the said Willis’s then wife; and if that correspondence was of the charac- ter described by said Willis iu his card to the public—then the letters in pos-cssion of this defoudant cannot have been written by the said Mary I. Coddington, against whose honor and virtue this defendant has never breath- eda suspicion, and whose name he has never, on any occasion. or to any person living, connected with the publication complained of in the plaintiffs’ bill of com- it. plaint. And this defendant further swears, that the letters in his possession, instead of being such as are described in this bill of complaint, are letters written by a fumale whose handwriting is not known to this defendant, but who had evidently been seduced from the paths of virtue by said Willis, and in relation to the disposition of which, the piaintiff¥in this suit—if their bill of complaint be true all the parties thereto have uot sworn false- lv—have no right whatever to interfere. And, in proof of this declaration, the defendant quotes from said let- ters the following :— * * ‘ * * ‘ * * And this deponent further says, that the foregoing is a true specimen of the letters . to which laboring science arising from her conviction, that, in addition to her loss of virtue, she had been guilty of the crime of adultery with said Willis, And it is morally impossible, therefore, that the said complainants, or either of them, could have been correctly | med in to the cha- racter of said letters; or, if so informed, that they would have made this application, or set up sclaim to said let- tera, on the that they were the productions of the said Mary I. Coddington. ‘And this deponent believes, that this complaint is based y erroneous information, imparted to the said com- ints by George Buckham aod Nathaniel P. Willis n said ccmplaint named, who he believes deceived, mis- and used said complainants, and persuaded them 0 publie thatthe said Mary I, wasin juded to or connected 5 ond if, as ber name has beem commected therewith, i f. i | EE i i : order which directs him to deposit them in the hands of Andrew Warner, under a bill of complaint fled by ties, who, according to their own showing, cannot possl- bly have any interest in, or claim to, these letters, be re- voked by this Honorable Court And this deponent in conclusion avers, that he has no desire whatever to retain possession of anid letters, to which the said N. P, Willis bat more claim than other person known to thie deponent; and that if che anid Willis, er the writer of said letters, will apply to this Court te designate a suitable person to take charge of the same, this deponent will, most cheerfully, unite in such application, while he considers it his duty to op- pore their being placed in the hands of any such re- ceiver upon the application of parties, who. by their own bill of complaint and the affidavits of all the parties there- 10, clearly demonstrate that they heve not the slightest claim tot nd as this deponeat believes, wore ia duced to make their application to this Court in igao- rance of the real character of sald letters. and upon the wilful miarepresentations of the said Willis and Puok- ham J. WATSON WRBB. Bworn to before me, this Oth June 1861 WM. Ht. REBLET, Commissioner of Deeds. Colonel Webb had read a long letter, and was proceed- ing to read another which was understood to contain ex. tracts from the correspondence which is in his possession when he was interrupted by is The Judge, who told him that he was now in contempt for violating the injunction which restrained him from reading or publishing any part of that correspondence. If, however, Colonel Webb would produce an affi lavit, showing any thing to exonerate him from his conduct in not appearing before the court last Friday, he, the Judge, would hear him. Colonel Webb said that they wove not extracts from that correspondence which he had embodied in the state- ment. The Judge.—The question now is, whether you should be excused for your conduct on Friday tast; but yout present aMdavit I will not hear. Allow me to suggest to you, that this is a case which you cannot eonduct your- self, Tapprehend you will be subjected to very great inconvenience unless you are aided by counsel. Colonel Webb was again about to address the court, saying—‘ Those are the facts,"—when ‘The Judge told him he could not hear that statement unNi be had put in an affidavit excusing his condact on F rida. ‘The Cefendant then left the court. Mr. H. ¥. Clark, counsel for the plaintiffs, here said he had just tome into court and learned that Colonel Webb had reed a statement eontaining extracts, which he was enjoined by his honor the Judge not to read or publish, Mr, C., dberefore, moved that an order be made for Col. Webb to stow cause why an attachment should not issue against hin for the violation of his injunction, Juige.— He ays they are not the same extracts, Mr. Clark.—I was not present at the time, but ifthe information which I regvived from geutlemen who were preeent in court, I have no fulth in that statement. Judge.—Make your application on affidavit, At a lster hour, Mr. Clark applied to the court, upon affidavits, and an order, as asked fur, was granted. Mr. Buckham’s Card. New Youn, June 9h, 1951. Splendid Display ef the New York Fire Department. THE FIRST ANNUAL PARADE—THE ENTHUSIASTIC RECEPTION OF THE FIREMEN BY THE CITIZENS, ETC. One of the most splendid civic displays ever seen in | this city, was the parade yesterday, of the New York Fire | Department. It was « credit to the firemen—to the officers of the department—to the city. To those who followed the procession, from the point of its formation nto order of parade, along the various streets through which it passed, the scene must have been gratifying in the extreme, and in every way calculated to inspire the mind with lively and manly sentiments—with a hallowed reverence for the untrammelled institutions under which we live. Let those who know nothing of the New York Fire Department, imagine the voluntary turning out of several thousand stalworth and athletic young men, all in the prime and vigor of manhood, with their splendid fire apparatus, adorned in the most costly style at their own expense, and maintained in the most brilliant order, from one end of the year to the other, and they twenty minutes past two o'clock, when they proceeded down Huron street and College place, to Murray street, thence up thi h the Park, where the Mayor, Commcen Council ‘ads of departments of the city government, ex-chiefs and assistant oot id an immense throng of citizens, were in re: ceive them ; and it could be easily seen by the smiling spectacle was one of no ordinary interest. The proces- sion passed through the east gate of the Park, and marched up Chatham street to Kass Broadway—through pause for a moment. During the maroh through Kast Broadway, it would appear that the inhabitants ofthe whole city had congregated in that street. The windows were crowded with , Young and old, who throw down wreaths of beautifully woven flowers into the midst of the procession, and the dense throng of spectators that lined tho atevet on both rides, greeted them with hearty cheers and waving of handkerchiefs. o then continued down Grandatreet to the Rowery; up the Bowery, Fourth avenue, and around ‘TO THE EDITOR OF THE NEW YORK HERALD. Sim :—Having read Col. Webb's statement in your paper of Saturday, although I deem it insppro- padate that I should, at the present time, make amy reply to such portions of ‘his communication a relate to tho merita of the matter pending between Mr. and Mra, Cod- ington aud himself, I deem {t due to myself, and alf con- cerned, that some of the misstatements contained im bis letter should be corrected without delay: Col, Webb, evidently attempts to make the impression, that Mr, and Mrs, Coddington have resorted to their ac: tion for the purpose of screening Mr. Willis from the charge contained in the Courier and Enquirer article of May 16th. In this I know that he is mistaken. I have not spcken to Mr. Willis for several years, nor, 80 faras I know, and as I firmly believe, was this proceeding re- sorted toffor any such purpose aa that assigued by Col Webb. Tho object, and the sole object, of Mr. and Mrs. Coddington, was to vindicate that lady from the charge | kratuitously asserted by Col. Webb ; a charge which I firmly believe to be altogether unfourgled.: I do not hesi- tute most solemnly to declare my most unqualified belief, in the innocence of Mrs, Coddington, and my perfect con- fidence, that if the state of acts, relative to her correspoa- dence with Mr, Willis admitted of any other theory. I could not have failed to have known it. But deem it due to the ends of public justice, that I should reserve @ more full and explicit statement of the matter, so far as it lies within my knowlede. till such time as, by the rog- ular course of judicial proceedings, my testimony may be deemed necesrary, | It ix manifest that Col, Webb wishes to make the pub- lic believe that the exposure of Mrs. Coddington’s name, in connection with tho charge against Mr, Willis, is the | result of indisereet conduct on the part of myself; and, | ts this concerns me personally, I have the right to be vindicated by the «ame channel through which this in- Justice has been done me Suffice it to say, that in this imputation, conveyed in Col. Webb's letter, ‘there ix not one syllable of truth. When Col. Webb positively assorta that * the person doce not live who has ever heard him say or intimate, directly or indirectly, that Mrs. Codding- ton is the lady ‘alluded to in his publication,” he must have forgotten the fact, which has since com to light, that, before it was printed in hia paper, he exiibited to a gentleman the proof imprewion of the article of May | ‘Sth containing the charge, and that the gentleman at | once stated to him that he knew of the fact of the corres- | nee from the lady herself. It was well known to friends of Miss Taman that she had had « correspondence with Mr. Willis; and, un- der such circumstances, it can hardly be deomed a mat- ter of surprise that the acquaintances of Mrs. Qodding- ton, and the friends of her family, at once, upon the pub- Hieation of Col. Webb's article. recognised her as the lady referred to; por ia it at all extraordinary that a very large portion of the community at once, and as if by coui- mon consent, adopted the impression, Mrs. Coddington passively rested under the imputa- tion, until in several newspapers she had been so distinctly referred to, that mistake was impossible, and until mort iccrect friends advised her that furthor silence would be deemed an acknowledgement of Uol. Webb's charge. She then of her own accord sought her own vindication; and upon being applied to, by counsel of her own selection, to make an affidavit of the faots within my knowledge, my Jong continued friendship with her father, and my regard for her. as well as my strong conviction of her inaoceace, forbid that I should decline. In the proceeding which has been resorted to,I had | no agency either direct or indirect. I was not consulted; and while I feel constrained to admit that I accord in | Judgment with her advisers, I am mot justly subject | even to Cc. Webb's censure, With the publication of the complaint and accom- panying papers in the Herald of the 5th I had no agency or concern, I have since learned, that Mrs. Coddington insisted that the assertion of her innocence should be as pobllely promulgated, as had been Col. Webb't arsovers- tion of her guilt, Thave no power to consent for Mra, Coddington that her letters be deposited in the manner and with the per- Thave reason to bel m suggested by Colonel Webb. that nothing phy of their delivery tothe jon of some gentleman selected by her advisers be acoepta- ble to her, It was uni for Colonel Webb to have sald that I wust reconeile my conduct with my own sense of right, if L could; or to have conveyed the coarser imputat are common agency of Colonel Webb and myself in the transaction referred to, he knows them to be true.

Showers of Woven flowers caine pouring downy, and it could be easily | discovered that many a maiden heart beat in unison | with kindred spirits enshrouded under the red shirts of the gallant fellows that cheered in response from the procession, The music was kept up without any abate- iment, during the whole procession. and every band exe cuted its part ins masterly and choering manner. Si- milar receptions were met with in every street and at every prominent point; and by the time the last compa ny pasted the corner of Waverley place and Broadway, there was scarcely a red shirt,» blue shirt. or a cout that was not decorated with a wreath of rich -tlow- ers.
