Doty was resumed this | durt and avenues to it were erowded generally supposed that Mr. Forrest him:elf would be examined, Hl testirnony was not, how ever reached. Me was present as before. The jury having answered to their names, the first wit ness called and examiaed by the Attorney General was Solon H. Lathrop, who dey ied in Bu‘falo: was in the firm of Jewett & Co, be knew Mr. Forrest) thought he was playing an engaxement at the theatre there in 1844, and that he returned here im | July; the newspapers ned the advertisements; saw Bim himself at the theat ing; did not recollect at witness was at the morning, and th to excess, ith wed—He resi publishers what house Mr. Forrest stopped : | the American, but did not recollect seeing him there. (4 | file of newspapers handed up.) | | Clark—-Stop « moment; will that do? FH Whiting— ¢ object to his looking at a newspaper to refresh h.s recollection. Any memorandum made by himself he might refer to, and we should like to hear the nm. Q—after examining the files, state from recollection, if you cap, at what time Mr. Forrest commenced his engage- ment, abd when it ended? Mr ‘Clark objected to “after examining the files.”’ (Ob- jection overruled, and exception taken. ) Witness continued, (after looking at the file, Buffalo | Commercial Advertiser)—I cannot swear as to the day. Mr Clark wished to be understood as excepting. | Mr. Chattield—The question is: after having examined | the files state from recollection, if you can, when Mr. | Forrest commenced his eng sgement and when it termin- | ated taken.) A.—Judging from the files, between the Sth and 13th July, 1844. (Answer objected to.) Ms, Chatfielid—The question now is: whether, from re- re aii chiectéate: tke Attends Cehadibenast ‘Mr. Whiting objected to the arguing. ‘The Court bad ruled upon it, and there was no queetion | before the Court. Question repeated. A.—He could not swear positively, Q—Do you remember seeing advertisements at that time’ (Objected to, and wit wn.) Could not re- member who was with Mr. Forrest; public-house people eee of arrivals. (Register of American Hotel ced. Mr. Whiting—Is that your register ? Mr. Chatteli—He knows te book, Mr. Clark—I don't know that we object to all these de- | viations from the rules of evidence, Mr. Whiting, if they will be as liberal with us. ‘The witness, after examination of the book, said he thought that was the book of that house. Mr. Whiting—Please to tell us what you mean by “you think?” A.—A familiarity with some of the writing. Q.—Do you find names you knew as guests of the house, and alsohisudwriting? (Objected to, objection overruled and exception taken.) A.—It resembles the handwri- ting of the clerk, which was peculiar; he had never seem | any like it all; he hadn't any doubt it was the boek of the | house; vitness was now connected with the Commmercial Advertiser, and had charge of the files; had been so for sia years; was not at that time—1844; Jewett & Co. were not the proprietors, but the printers; they were so in| 1844, but*he was not with them; there were two firms; the other one were proprietors, and Jewett was a member | | of both. | Mr Whiting destred the explanation might be so placed | | \ (Objected to, Objection overruled, and exception as to precede his objection to the production of the file | ‘of papers by him, as it made it stronger. ss examined by Mr. Clark—Did not think he could, from memory, state a fact in 1843 or 1844 unaided; di not speak from recollection when he said Mr. Forrest was | there in 1844; could not say whether he was there in | "44, or °45; there were particular circumstanons at: | fending ‘this in 1844. | filee of the paper. Dut fix the time b: —Did you know iiss Josephine “—Yes: not know where he had seen her; did not say he had not seen her in Bnffzlo; had seen her playing. Q.—W: Mz. Forrest playing with her ? (Objected to by Mr. Chat ) Mr. Clark—If we are entitled to prove that Mr. Forrest was ever playing with Miss Clinton, we are entitled to do Why this witness, or any other, on cross examination. . Chatfield did not meanto have the minds of the toe away from the issue. | . Clark contended there was no such rule and never was, that on cross examination they must confine them- selves to the subject matter of the direct, if it is relevant. ‘Whether it is so or not, is another questioa for the Court. The Attorney General argued it was irrelevant to the transaction on the North river. Mr. Clark supposed be was mistaken about the date. ‘Mr. Chatfield—That is begging the question. Any man indicted for perjury might set up tue same thing, and say it was a mistake. Dut it will be for the Court to say whether he was criminally mistaken. It seems, by the course adopted, that couns@) are isfied that the fact is untrue. I desire to keep the fact clearly distinct, and leave him to argue to the jury, if he likes, that he was mistaken—and, then, if we don’t show that the mistake was corrupt, designed, and malicious, he may be ac- | quitted; but I don’t desire to have the lives of all the io and those placed on the stand, examined into. | take the objection here, because the course to be pur- seed by being settled will save us much trouble. ‘The Court sustained the objection, and Mr. Clark took exception, and wished to give notice that they would demand that ihe other side be kept to the same rule, and not go into anything beyond the fact itself, in the year 1844, because they thought the rule had been differently laid down during this cause for the @ifferent sides. It seemed to be so on the examination of Mr. Meigs Benjamin. The Recorder said they had endeavored to observe the | strict rules of testimony on both sides. | Mr. Chatfield—This is not the first time, I believe, that eourts have been insulted here. Mr. Clark—It is but fair that we give them notice that we require them to keep within the same rule. After a few remarks from the Recorder, the breeze lulled, and Mr. Clark continued the cross-examination. Q Did you ever see Mr Forrest and Miss Clifton to- gether? (Objected to, and ruled out, exception taken.) Mr. Whiting wished to know whether they meant to put the book in evidence, or any part of it, otherwise they could not cross-examine as to that, and would re- quire the witness to remain. Mr. Chatfield would give the whole; he was not bound te point out passages he intended to rely on. -examination continued—Numbers of persons had | written in it; some whose writing he did not know; could not say how many had written in it between the Ist and 13th of July, 1844; did not know the writing of the eatry em the Ist; couhi not tell whether there was an altered entry Ge examining page) could not see any altera ti ere were ten or a doven writings on the page ander head of Ist July which he did not know; did not know any of them; did not know any on the 2d; knew ‘the names.

Saw him | write; knew him; he was a forwarding merchant in New | York. The same name occurred again, under the head ef September lith. Saw his own name in September; wrote it himself; saw another name he knew on the 14h October; there was another, John Bull. (Laughter.) Q.— ‘Where does he live? A.—He did live at Buifalo. After pass. fwg through two or three others in the same way, he con- tinued: He saw the name of Thos. P. Walter; could not tell that was the name from the writing, but had men him write so frequently that he knew it; became connected with the firm six years ago; lived in Buffale from 1843 to 1847; was absent occasionally; never was absent in sum mer time more than two days; could not swear from re- collection that he was not absent in July 1844 for a week id know, in 1844, who published the Commercial Adver tiser then; boarded at the American Hotel in 1844; Mr Hodges qe he lived in Buffalo and kept one still.

Cross examined—Knew Miss Clifton; couldn't remem- ber when she died; had no recollestion on the subject of time; understood ‘she died South. Q—Have you ever seen her and Mr. Forrest together ’ (Same objection, same ruling.) Q.—Ever seen them traveling together? (Same objection, same ruling.) Q—Have you seen them travelling together at any time previous to July, 1844? . (Same objection, same ruling.) Q—Have you ever seen him kiss her ¥ Attorpey General—Oh! (Laughter.) Seme objection, same ruling, and exceptions taken and noted, John Herbert— Resides in New York; had done so near- ly six years; knew Mr. Forrest; had known him nearly five ears; saw him in 1844; it was in the early portion of July, it was very near the 4th; he played on ‘he 5th, at the theatre in Buffalo; could not say how long he remain- ed; he played there six consecutive nights: did not know where he stopped in Buffalo; knew who printed the bills for the theatre. Witness commenced there with the sea- son, and remained after Mr Forrest left. Cross-examined—Knew Miss Josephine Clifton; had seen her in Baltimore, New York; could not say aa to Albany. Q—Ever seen her on any steamboat ¥ Objected to. Objection overruled. A.—No. Q.—Ever seen her and Mr. Forrest together? Same objection, same ruling. Similar questions were put as to the former witnesses; all ruled out and fons taken, , — seen in bed? mn sustained ; exception taken. Could not say when Mias Clifton died; she lived seme- time after 1844; the last time he saw her was at Balti- more, twelve or fourteen years ago. William Rickers—Resided in New York; was now clerk at the Carleton House; resided at Buffalo from the year 1855 till August, 1844; during that period was engaged at the American Hotel there, as Leverage (Book shown.) That was the register; it contained the names of the guests of the house, which were generally written by the guests themselves; could not say he rememberéd Mr. For- | rest being there in 1844; recollected his being there about nine or ten years ago. Register handed to witness, and objection taken to his refreshing his recollection by an entry not made by him- self. Overruled. Exception noted. Mr. Blunt, who had just entered, said they did not wish to put such a question. They only proposed to refresh his resollection by entries of his own. There was no question before the Court. He dii not wish to have such an exce} nm. Mr. way peer the exception. His associaté, Mr. Phillips, had noted it. Mr. Catfield said it would be time when he asked the question. Mr. Whiting knew the entry he was about to refer to was not in his own handwriting, and therefore his objec- tion. They desired the witness should close the book, which was done, and he proceeded. “He reaollected ir. Forrest being there more than once. Q—What room did he occupy ? Objected to. Objection overruled, and exception taken. A.—He did not recollect ; some of the entries were in his handwriting up to 12th of August ; the headings were in his brother’s writing ; there was one in bis, 12th August : there were several on 24 July, 1844 ; one was ‘62,"" being the number of a room ; leiter “ ,’’ in the fourth colump, was his.

Cross-examined—Did not recellect when he made the Q,." had no distinct recollection independent of the book, and would be unwilling to awear without reference 0 it. %To Mr. Chatfield—It was the rule and practice to enter them at the time. The Court then journed, and the jury separated, as before, until 1a, Reearnee day) morning. Marine Affairs. MORTALITY ON BOARD THE SHIP ANTARCTIC FROM LIVERPOOL.

She isa handsome realization of what beauty can be produced from wood and iron by the cunning of a mas- ter mind. In general appearance she much resembles the Sovereign of the Sea, though in detail she is said to differ in some essential particulars. She can spread some two thousand more yards of canvass than that vessel, and she is somewhat fuller about midships. There is, however, the bold sheer of her predecessor, and her appearance on deck is somewhat similar. Like that vessel, too, she has been built of most extraordinary strength, having a back- bone of nine feet, three inches through, and her stan chions, knees, (both hanging and lodging,) and all her timbers, from stem to stern, are proportioned to match. | Her appearance, altogether, is most beautiful, especially oant at the trial between Catherine N. and Edwin | ‘orr est, in the Superior Court, during a considerable part @f the ‘time; was present when Doty was sworr, he was sworn by laying the hand en the Bible; heard his exami nation; ‘all the direct and part of the cross examination reeollected what he raid in relation to the name of the Boat, that it was ‘the steamboat Albany, Captain y Cross examined—Could not say what day of the month it was he was examined, nor the day of the week: had seen the book on which Doty was sworn several times never opened it; never read it—(laughter)—could not say he saw it before Doty was sworn meant to say he was «worn on a book: its was in answer to the question boat; thought it was put by Mr had sworn it on the direc’ too; did not recollect a to the name of the Van Buren; thought he don the cross examination, ualiacation, but he might have said ‘steamboat Albony,’’ I think Captain Macy: but he said ‘steamboat Albany.”’ certainly; did not recollect his saying he had endeavored to avoid being a witness. Q.— Die’nt Mr. Van Buren ask him whether he had been to Mr. O'Conor's office? A.—Yes, and he answered he had been; and that he told Mr. O'Conor he knew nothing about it, and Mr. O'Connor replied, ‘‘we know better,’ or something like it; did not recollect his saying that he had said so because he did not wish to be brought | up as a witness; he might have said so; did'nt recollect raying he ‘haddone all he could to avoid being obliged to testify | Direct resumed—Was there during ¢he whole of the di- reet, and went out during the cross examination.

At the first board Nicaragaa Transit declined J per cent; Chesapeake and Ohio Co., 1; Erie Rail- road, {; Harlem, 3; Long Island, 3. Sixth Avenue road, j; Pennsylvania Coal Co., j. At the second board there were very large transactions in Erie Railroad, at a decline from the first to the last sale. A decline of 1 percent on prices current in the morn- ing was experienced. There was evidently a good inclination among holders to sell, and nearly twenty- five hundred shares changed hands. Hudson River Railroad fell off 1 per cent; Cumberland Coal, 4; Pheenix Coal Co., }; Nicaragua Transit, §; Harlem, }. There were two small sales of Potomac Copper Com- pany, at 3g a 33. Since this stock has been well dis- tributed by the original holders selling out, the de- mand has fallen off, and the stock will probably re- ‘main quiet until something more is known about the mine. As yet nothing is definitely known of its ex- tent, and much depends upon future explorations. The receipts at the office of the Assistant Treasurer of this port today amounted to $179,030; pay- ments, $40,961 48—balance, $4,782,068 52.

Mr. McKay may be proud of such a production, aa she is thought by many to be his chef d’arwvre, and her friends are coniident that, with average fair weather, she will beat the short- est trip to San Francisco ever yet made.

It is to connect with the wide gauge road from Canan- daigua West, which is already nearly completed. It will open a route of traffic to the rich and populous, but hitherto sequestered, region composed of parts of Ulster, Green, Delaware, Otsego, Schorarie, Che- nango, Cortlandt and Cayuga counties. It will com- mand a large local traffic, and compete on the most favorable terms,for the through trade, as the distance will be less, and the curves and grades most favora- ble. We wish success to this undertaking. The Ohio River Land and Marble Company will | offer for sale, at auction, in the Merchants’ Ex- | change, on Saturday, the 19th inst., at 12 o'clock, fifty thousand dollars ($50,000) of its first and only mortgage bonds, being part of $100,000, which form the only lien upon the property of the company, con- sisting of forty thousand (40,000) acres of land lying | upon the Ohio river, in Kentucky, opposite and be- | low the city of Portsmouth. These lands are valued | at $10 per acre, exclusive of the newly discovered | marble hills, the value of which ranges from | $200 000 to $500,000, and which are also included in the trus: deed. The trust deed or mortgage is made | to Shephard Knapp, to secure the whole issue of | $100,000 of seven per cent bonds, the principal | payable in ten years, and the interest semi-annually, | at the Mechanics’ Bank in this city. The capital of the company is $200,000. The com- | pany proposes to erect steam mills in the neighbor- | surface for the supply of Cincinnati and the neigh- borhood. They have a contract for supplying 1,000,000 feet of car timber to the Cincinnati and St. | ployed in the quarrying operations of the company, as are also the steam mills for the sawing of marble slabs. The land yields 3 to $5 per acre for lumber- ing, and when cleared they are in demand at $10 by river, avoiding timber lands. Running longitudinally | of the land on the margin of the river, is being con- | structed the Maysville and Big Sandy Railroad. | The position of this road is such that, with its con- | % nections, it will place every farm on the Ohio River | Marble Company's lands in communication with al- | most every market between Boston and New Orleans. the Marble Company's lands is the only source of rous farms located along its route, and the facilities for sawing possessed by the company place it beyond competition in the Western markets. Land in the immediate neighborhood, cleared of timber, has been colonized by Swiss vine dressers, at $10 per acre. The agent of the company, H. G. Smith, Esq., himself a preprietor by purchase of one- fourth of the entire capital of the company, estimates | the quantity of lumber to be cut at 3,000 M, at an | average cost of $7 per M, of a quality superior to that quoted in the Cincinnati market at $12 50 a $24, | an operation which yields from $20,000 to $25,000 per annum profit. and agricultural purposes is not under $12 per acre, which would give $552,000, represented by $200,000 of stock and $100,000 of bonds. In addition to this, are the paint, the iron ore, and the marble. This is so situated that it can be quarried and de- livered in Cincinnati at fifty cents per foot. The de- mand for marble in the Western cities is in some de- gree indicated by the quantities cleared on the canals of Ohio in 1852, as thus :—At Cleveland, 3,210,000 Ibs.; Toledo, 2,807,807 ; Chicago, Ill., 512,954; Pitts- burg, Pa., 387,200—Total, 6,918,061 Ibs. At the usual weight of 150 pounds per cubic foot, this gives @ quantity equal to 461,000 superficial feet. The quantity delivered from the New York canals at Buffalo, is about 1,400,000 feet. The Ohio Company can deliver the stone of a better quality at a rate far | La less than the mere transportation, and estimating the | quantity per annum at 100,000 feet, only at $1, it will | yield $100,000 per annum profit, or fifty per cent on the stock, irrespective of sales of land, lumber, iron | ore, or paint. Some of the stone quarries near New | York, which supply it with brown stone, pay eight per cent on $375, the share of $25.
