It Is held by the accounting officer of the government that tbe 16th section, act of July 5, 1828, entitles every commissioned officer to 1ecetve one additional ration for every five yeara he may have served, or shall serve, a8 such—that is, as a commissioned officer in the army. ‘There is nothing in the law that requires the service have been consecutive, and in making up the aggregate of service of any officer he is entitled to the benefit of all the time he may have served as a commissioned officer in thearmy. But service in the marine corps cannot be counted as servicein the army in computing longevity rations in case of an officer’s transfer, nor can service in the army be considered in computing the ailowance of » morine cificer transferred from the army. The provision in regard to longevity ra\ious applies to the marine corps, by virtue of the 6th eection, act of June 90, 1834, placing officers of the marine corps on the seme footing, an to emoluments, &c , with officers of similar grades in the infantry of the ar A willitary storekeeper is not considered to be & com- rolerioned officer of the line or staff, within the meaning of the 16th section cf th tof 1838.

Mefore Coroner Gan >le. The Coroner yesterdsy morning empannelled a Jury, ani com menced investigating the facts and clroumstanses relative to the assaseination of Ir. Latener, while in his office, on last Tuesday morning, situated at No, 453 Broad- way, corner of Grand etreet. ‘The principal facts in the case we published in yesterday’s Hrasip, We might briefly state that the Dooter was found dead on the floor, caused by a shot froma pistcl, which penetrated the bare of his skull, amd must have produced death obnost ipatantly, the bullot having passed through the brainand lodged itself in the ozeip'tal bene. After the jury bad been sworn they viewed the body of deceased, and were then conducted to # room occupied as an armory by acompany ofthe Natiens! Guard, situated in the building di xectly orer the doctor's offices, At about ll o’clock quite » number of persons had collected ia and abort the room ¢esignated for the holding of the inquort, and mapy were the remarks mado from one to the other ineident, om such occasions, both for and against the parties accused. The two prisoners were brought into the room in the custody of police- men Mra, Hays was requerted to remain seated apart from her buaband, and the policeman, informed by the coroner not to permit them to converse together, Mrs Bays was not arrested until Tuesday evening, and that wen by the police at Harlem, as she came from the ear! to go to her residence; but prior to her retursing home she had visited the Tombs and procured an interview with her husband. Her spperrence yesterday curing the investigation was of a very mild and “composed nature, and evidently indicated the use of a nar cotio; 4, from the general ospect of the woman; we ehould say she fe in the habit of taking such doses, whioh is possibly @ part of the medical qreatment ohe has of late been re commended to in- dulge in, Her personal sppearenoe is not favorable; she is of small stature, rather fleshy than ctherwise, sal- low comp'exion, noe rather long and somewhat elevated: at the oad, Very dark hair and dark eyes, the latter par taking of s dim, heavy look, produced evidently by tho use of narcotic drugs. She cannot be called homely byany means, nor can she be designated pretty, but will pase very well for something between;the two—sho may be called a good looking woman, and under more favor- able auspices, no doubt her whole frame would exhibit a more pleasing appearance. Iler sge must be aboud twenty-eight or thirty years. We undorstand she is a native of Ireland, William Haya is also # native of Izeland, of small ata- ture, and about thirty years of age. He possessss a pleasing cast of countenance, and during the investiga- tion he was laughing and conversing with his counsel, Mr, Busteed, as an associate counsel wonld do in = case in which he bad no other eoncern. Bat whether this kind of nonchalance 19 assumed, we are unable to say. Mrs, Lutener, wife of the Doctor, is fine, noble looking woman, of florid complexion, and vory pleasing counte- nance. She gsve her evidence in w very clear rmanuer, copsidering the circumstances ander which she was then laboring. Mirs Shipman, the second witness examined, ia a very remarkable looking woman, possessing, however, eon- siderable intelect--much more so than snticipatedjfrom her appearance. She gave her testimony very woll, only the sad aflliction of deafness rendered it inore difficult for the Coroner to make her uuderstand the questions, The following ts the TESTIMONY.
