LS a ——_—_——————— THE GARDNER CASE. Adjourned Inquest—Suicide Proved. Wasmineron, March 10, 1854. ‘The adjourned inquest in this extraordinary case held this morning in the guard room of the jail, the room im which the deceased breathed his last, and tn which the post mortem examination was made. Besides the Coroner and jurors there were present Drs. Thomas Miller, Graf- ton Tyler, Joshua Riley, Alexander J. Semmes, Wao. Da Humel, and Daniel Breed, (Chemical Examiner of the United States Putent Office, ) and Lewis H. Steiner, (Profes- sor of Chemistry in the National Medical College;) also, Jos. H. Bradley and J. M lisle, Esqrs., counsel for the @efendant, and P. Barton Key, United States District as Attorney. ‘There was no crowd present in the vicinity of the jail, it being generally believed throughout the city that the deceased had committed suicide—an opinion which, as will be observed from the testimony given below, has re- ceived the most ample confirmation. The firs#evidence presented to the jury was the report of the two Professors to whose custody the stomach and liver of the deceased were delivered for the purpose of chemical analysis. Their report was read, as follows:— Lanoratory or U. S. Parest Orrice, ) Wasnneron, D. C., March 10, 1854. f To Tiomas Woopwakp, Coroner, axp P. Barron Key, Disraicr Attorxgy, D. C.— Gentlemen—Having, in conformity with your instruc- tions, instituted a careful investigation of the contents of the stomach of the late Dr. Geo. A. Gardner, and also of the powder found in his pocket—both submitted to us by you on the 4th inst we hereby report that in the sto- mach we bave detected substances affording the chemi cal reaction characteristic of strychnine and brucine; ang from the large portion of the contents of the stomach not yet completely analyzed, we are convinced that these lent poisons are present in quantity more than sef. ficient to have produced death. The powder found in the pocket of the deceased, has proved to be ‘commercial strychnine,” or, chemically, a mixture of that poison with brucine. According to the tests for these alkaloids, as given by the most eminent ight of this powder is ninety-five anies also mention that we have found in the sto- of payer, one of which was folded in which druggists wrap up powders. DANIEL BREED, M. D. LEWIS H. STEINER, M.D. Dr. Grafton Tyler, of Georgetown College, being present, was asked to state anything further that he had to say. He said—I had no idea of being summoned here again, Dut would merely observe, in connection with what 1 have already learned of the result of the examination of the contents of the stomach, that, to my mind, there are circumstances which would influence an opinion which it would be well for me to state; I gave an opinion before: hand at the last meeting of the inquest, from the symp. toms before death, and the post mortem appearances, that I believed there was poison in the case, and that even if no strychnine should be found in the stomach, T should entertain the belief that death was caused by that poison; that opinion was based upon the fact that the physicians who attended him during his illness, pointed clearly to the mind of every medical man present that strychnine was the cause of the symptoms, and this opinion was strengthened by the fact that such symptoms are never produced by any combinations of diseased action what ever; the sympioms which result from the physiological | influence of strychnine, are peculiar; in a period of over | twenty years devoted to the investigation and daily ob- servatlou of diseased phenomena, I have never seeu any such modification of nervous ‘power, as understood | es to swear whether the death was from strychnine or mental agitation, though I believe it was from stryeh- nine As corroborative of this opinion 1 woukt in- e the remarkable rigidity of the body after death, Joe sensitiveness of the patient during life, to light, cold, toneh, &e.—ihe throwing himself backwards, together with the convulsions (lock jaw) described by the witness- If he had died from excessive agitation, the tissue of brain, in my opinion, would have been congested. In sof poisoning by strychnine the patient is generally ensible in the intervals of the convulsions. If I had seen the first symptoms in the case, or performed the autopsy the pression is that he died from strychnine. I shall be very much surprised if strychnine be not found in the sto- mach. Being subsequently recalled, I further testified that Mr. Bradley (one of deceased’s counsel) took a paper, containing a white powder, in my presence, from Gard: ner’s pocket after his death, which he handed to me, and which again I handed to Dr. Semmes, physician of the jail, to be analyzed. REMARKS OF THE REPORTER. 1 stood among all the learned sons of Esculapiua, and although there seemed to be a common agreement there was a common cifference—in other words, perhap: strife of contention as to the palm of superior knowle the symptoms were thus—otHers that they were thus; and to get at the exact difference was impossible by any mathematics. The result was that they agreed; and it is now universally understood that the whole thing is—'A little diminutive fraud om Mexico.”” Opinions of the Press. {From the Sunday Atlas.} FRAUDS ©N THE GOVERNMENT-—CONVICTION AND DEATH OF DOCTOR GEORGE A. GARDNER. Doctor George A. Gardner, the dentist, who, it is alleged, received the sum of’ upwards of four hundred thousand dollars at the hands ef the commission tkat adjusted the claimsiof our citizens against Mexico, an- der the provisions-of the treaty of Guadalupe Hidaigo, for losses which he claimed to have sustained in kein obliged to abanden certain gold mines in the Unit Mexican States, which money, it is proved, was fraudu- | lently obtained, was convicted, in the Circuit Court for the District of ‘Columbia, last Friday. As soon as the verdict of the jury was awarded, Dr. Gardner felt the warm pressure of the hands of Mr. Marshal Wal- lach, who took him into custody. He was forthwith taken before Mr. Justice Crawford, who sentenced him to ten years imprisonment in’ the penitemtiary at Greenleat?s Point. As the “ladies and gentlemen’” who are admitted to that seminary of polite education aro usually put to the shoemaking business, the Doctor will probably be left to discharge the office of mnender of soles for the next ten yexrs. ‘The penitentiary at Green- leat’s Point is in a beautiful location, overlooking the Po- tomac, and holding in the distanee’ Mount Vernon, the Capitol of the United States, Washington's Monument, Mrs, Anne Royal’s printing ‘office, and the Alexandria viaduct. ‘The’ view thus presented would indeed be most beautiful if the Doctor could only see it from his cell. It vieted the last year; for, he would have been compelled to listen to tual discourses of the Rev. Charles Denison, vas then chaplain of the prison. By ‘fhe interven: tion of Divine Providence, and the administration, he will now escape so terrible an infliction, as Brother Denison has gone to take possession of the consulateat Demarara. The Doctor, under the regime of Fillmore and the Galphins, swindled the government out of four hundred thousand dollars, a large portion of which, by some means or other, went into. the pockets of Mr. Socretary Corwin and others, who will take good care that it is safely kept, and not squandered. It has probably cost the government three hundred thousand dollars to con- vict the Doctor, which, added to the original swindle, makes a very respectable little sum of money. The law: yers engaged one way and another in the trial of the case, which, by the way, has been on hand the last three years and upwards, have realized ‘a good deal of fat and through the outward manifestations, as those resulting from the action of this poison—and it is well attested | ‘that persons have been known to die of narcotic and | marcotico-aerid poisons, where no evidence was afforded | after death, by chemical research; this may result from | the quantity being so minute a3 to be absorbed or | changed by combinations after entering the body; in this instance, the violence of the symptoms and the sudden termination of the case indicated a dose of considerable amount, and therefore I expected the poison to be detected. There are circumstance in which, though poison is found in the stomach by analysis, yet the sub- ject may have died from other causes and swallow poison at the same time; or poison might be introduced into the stomach after death. In this case the fact that the symp- toms before death denoted every medical witness to a poison as the cause, and to strychnine alone as that poi- son, the post-mortem examination strengthening the opinion by full negative and some positive testimony, when taken in combination with the symptoms before death. Further, chemical tests have revealed the exis- tence of poison in the stomach of exactly the character even the specific drug,) which the symptoms indicated have been taken. I conceive that the testimony could not be stronger that strychnine was the cause of death. Dr. Alexander J. Semmes, physician to the U. 8. Jail, stated that experiments were perfomed in Paris on dogs and other animals, and that the symptoms correspond exactly with those exhibited in the case of Dr. Gardiner. Strychnine, in his opinion, entered the circulation, and through it exerts a specific influence upon the spinal marrow and the motor nerves. Its peculiar effect in Dr. Gardner’s case was manifested by the ex- ibility of the surface of the body to light, heat, and the touch, to such a degree that the simple contact of the finger with the skin would excite or renew the (etania paroxsysm. Even in the ab- sence of any chemical analysis, 0 convincing was the ehain of moral evidence, together with the symptoms before death, and the morbid appearances of the body on the post mortent examination, that I must have concluded that the death of Dr. Gardner was caused by the adminis- ration of strychnine. A witness of the name of Evan Hughes was next ex. amined, and the following colloquy transpired between him and the Coroner:— ‘oroner—It has been told us here that Dr. Gardner raid to you, or in your presence, that sooner than go to | the penitentiary he would take poison. Did you ever hear him say so? Witness—I did mot. Coroner—id you ever hear him say anything to that effect ? Witness—tI never heard him say he would take poison; Dut I have heard some Mexicans in the city say that if he was convicted he would never go to the penitentiary. Coroner—Were you acquainted with Dr. Gardner ? Witness—I was; I have known him ever since he re- turned from Mexico. Coroner—Then you know nothing of his having threat- ened to take poison?

POST MOKTEM EXAMINATION OF THE BODY. Aseverything connected with this unfortunate affair has now become a matter of general public interest, we Bive below the following additional facts:— post mortem examination was not commenced until ten o'clock the following morning. By the kind ness of one of the gentlemen who was present, I hay Deen furnished with the following notes, as they wer taken at the time :— Ati Dr, George A.

In theabsence of strychnine detected in the stomach I am unable to account for the | phenomena exhibited in this case. J would not be willing | not a little honey.”? It is said that Judge Crawford was very caustic in his remarks when he pronounced sentence. We have not a doubt of it. It is bad enough to be convicted of crime; but, it is absolutely horrible to be sentenced by Judge Crawford. His Honor is a very pious man, and a philan- thropist into the bargain; but, in pronouncing sentence, digs deeper into the skin and under the skin, into the bowels and under the bowels, than old Jeffries ever could. He was imported by Colonel Benton, from Missouri, to preside over the Circuit Court for the District of Colum- bia. The Colonel probably thought that he would be called on to send Congress to the penitentiary, and there- fore selected him for his adamantine qualities. Doctor Gardner was in Europe when the charge of swindling was preferred against him, and made an ass of himself by returning. After we had written thus far, the case of Doctor Gardner, which we had thought was, to a certain extent, a fit subject for ridicule, considering the manner in which it had been conducted, presented a tragic ‘and.a mean- choly aspect. After he had been committed to the jail of Washing- ton, preparatory to his removal to the penitentiary, he was found dead in the cell, having, it is probable, com- mitted suicide. He was observed to drink a glass of what was supposed to be water, but which it is now thought contained a deadly poison. ~ And thus ended the career of this misguided man. In prosecuting his cause before the Mexican Commission—a Commission which was always looked upon with distrust, because of its evident eagerness to exhaust the ten millions of dollars placed at its discretion—he was aided by Mr. Thomas Corwin, Mr. Waddy Thompson, Mr. Edward Curtis, and Major Lally, who acted as his coun- sellors and advocates. Mr. Corwin, at the time he en- tered the service of Dr. Gardner, was a member of the Senate of the United States, which office he resigned to accept the place of Secretary of the Treasury. On his accepting that post, he abandoned his connection with Gardner, and sold his anticipated claim on the money re- ed Wy Gardner to Mr. George Law, of this city, for cighty thousand dollars cash, whigh ‘was paid on’ the spot. Mr. Edward Curtis, Me. Weddy. Thompson Major Lally received large fees; and aa two hun thourand dcdors of the original amount allowed G: by the commission were withheld by Mr. President more after the charge of frand had been set up, to ineet the issue, it is probable that the original claimant re- ceived but an inconsiderable amount of the ‘spoils’? awarded him. Independently of this, his counsel fees were paid out of the money he had pocketed, and $40,000 were deposited to secure his bail. It is urged that the govern. ment ought now to institute actions against the azents of Gardner, who prosecuted his claim before the Commis- sion, and compel them to pay back the sums they re- ceived. Although it may be true that they are legally liable to action, and might be compelled to make restitu- tion if the affair were confined to individuals, and the government had no hand in it, we very much doubt if prosecutions were commeneed against them if good money would not be wasted in pursuit of bad. If judg- ments were obtained against the counsel of Gardner, they would stand in relation to the government in a position similar to that which is occupied by defawulters, and who ement against a defaulter to be exe- S¥Cr knew ore 4 cuter to liquidation? Dr. Gardner was a native of the Interns, “= of this State, but while pursuing his vocation as aii Itinezent gene. had aft tiany itor in Mexico. He was thirty- yeart ve it is said, was dat the time of his death, ay bout to be married toa young lady of Georgetown, in the District of Columbia.“ An action for perjury is still pending against his brother, who was implicated in the Fraud. He is at large on bail, and whether he will meet his trial or forfeit his recognizance, remains to be seen. The probability is that he ‘will make good his escape. Doctor Gardner, the deceased, was orignally put on his trial upwards of a year ago. After two or three months had been exhausted the case was given to the jury, who reported they could not agree, and were dis charged. A second trial was commenced two months ago: and, but for an act of folly on the part of the accus- ed; it is possible he might have been acquitted. Whilst hi trial was progressing a bussdle in a “yellow paper,” containing very important testimony against him, mys- teriously disappeared. It was alleged and believed that ple and destroyed the papers. This act produced a very decided outside pressure against the acoused, which it is highly probable reached the jury. In concocting his fraudulent designe against the treasury Dr. Gardner, from: abstruse and voluminous character, it is very certain must haye been aided by an extensive band of associate conspirators. (From the Sunday Mercury, March 5.] A TERRIBLE LESSON. . Dr. George A. Gardner was found dead in his room, at Washington, on Friday last, he having committed suicide by taking poison. ‘The wretched deceased had just been convicted of a fraud upon the government, and sontenced to ten years hard labor in the penitentiary. His fraud was of a gigantic nature. He obtained, by means of forged documents and a mountain of lies, an award, (from a commission appointed to examine claims to the Mexican indemnity money,) of some four hundred thousand dol- lars. He set up that he had been the owner of a valuable mine in Mexico, which the Mexicans, in the late war with them, had broken up to his ruin, and with a logs ‘to him, as he imed, of over half a million of dollars, T Loctor had been a wande: dentist in Mexico, where he was for maay years, There he acquired its lin- e, and possessel himself thoroughly of its geo- He explored the pn ing districts of San Louis anajuato, &e.

He was convitted, ‘and would even now be serving out his hatd sontence in the penitentiary, but that he laid violent lands apon his own life, and is at this moment lying in a convict and suicide’s grave—a terrible lesson. : No case—not even that of the poor wretch FAlwards— was over fought harder. ‘The Hunaty of yesterday tells us that after the payment of the money to Gardner a suspicion was raised that the claim was a fraud.

On hearing of the charges against him, he gave notice that he would come back and confront and silence his accusers. He did come back, and was indicted for perjury and forgery,upon two separate bills, ‘The President’s commissioners and the Senate's commissioners went down to Mexico to hunt up the mine.

He was 36 years old, ad the education and manners of a gentleman, and was engaged to be married to a lady in Georgetown. [From the Evening Post, March 4.) THE CASE OF DR. GARDNER. The trial of Dr. George A. Gardner, who died yester- | day, in the prison at Washington, as is supposed, by poison administered by his own hand, is so extraordina- ry, that it deserves a place in any collection which may | Kereafter be made of Remarkable Criminal Trials. | ‘Our readers will remember that, by the treaty conclud- | ed with Mexico, about six years since, our government undertook to compensate'the American citizens who had claims against Mexico for injuries done to their property by the Mexicans during the war. Somewhat more than | three millions of dollars were appropriated for this pur- | pose, and a Board of Commissioners was appointed to de- | cide upon the claims for indemnity which should be pre- | gented. A large number of claimants appeared in conse- | uence. | “Whinong these was Dr. Gardner, who demanded half a | million of dollars, or thereabouts, for the breaking up of a promising enterprise in which he had been engaged. He laid before the Commissioners an ingeniously devised se- ries of documents, showing that he had expended large sums in opening a silver mine in the State of San Luis | Potosi, from which he had been driven by the Mexicans, | with the loss of all he had invested in the undertaking. ‘The claim was supported by Mr. Corwin, then » member of the United States Senate, acting as counsel for Dr. Gardner, and interested in the success of the claim. The Commissioners required more ample proofs. Gardner went to Mexico, where he had already resided some years , as a dentist, and returned with them. | In the meantime Mr. Corwin was made Secretary of the Treasury, and sold his interest in the Gardner claim. ‘The Commissioners were satisfied with Gardner’s new proofs, and awarded him a sum exceeding four hundred | thousand dollars. Soon after the award of the commissioners, who do not seem to bave investigated the ry ‘thoroughly, doubts were expressed of the authenticity of Gardner’s claim. ‘They grew so strong that the government des- | patched a commission to Mexico. No trace of the mine | was found, and it became clear that Gsrdner’s whole | story was a falsehood, and_ his documents forgeries. He was indicted for the fraud, and tried. On the trial, which took place nearly a year since, the jury disagreed. A second trial was had, the result of which was a convic- tion, and the court sentenced him to an imprisonment of ten years, the highest punishment which the law allows to be inflicted for the offence. Gardner is represented as a man of good manners, and as more than commonly ingenious angi, plausible. "The story of his mine and his losses, and the proofs with | whieh he sustained it, must have been forged with con. | siderable skill not to awaken apy suspicion of the fraud | in the commissioners. é | All the fruit of a skill 90 painfully exerted was the brief enjoyment of a large fortune, in the midst of constant anxiety and fear of detection, foliowed by a complete ex- | posure of the frand, a verdict of guilty from the jury, an iguominjous sentence from the court, and an escape from the sentence by a dreadful expedient of suicide. He | could have borne, it seems, the reproaches of his own | conscience, but not the shame of a condemnation to the penitentiary. He closed his life by an act which will be | regarded as equivalent to a confession of the crim” of | which the jury has just found him guilty. Religious Intelligence. ca Rev. Alexander Clelland, D.

Quo¥ations for nearly every fancy on the list show a declive, but speculators for a rise bought largely on time—Loth buyer’s and scller’s option. The bears availed themselves of the depreciation to make up some of their shorts. At the first board, Cumberland Coal de- clined 3 per cent ; Potomac Copper, 3 ; Reading Rail- road, 34; Michigan 8. Construction stock, % ; Cleve- land and Toledo, 14; New Haven, 4; Stonington, 1! Norwich and Worcester, 3. Michigan Central Railroad advanced 4¢ per cent; Parker Vein, %. At the second board, the market was no better, so far as prices were concerned, but a better feeling prevailed, and it was the impression that another week would show a more favor- able state of things. ‘The cause of the recent decline in prices and present heaviness in the market is entirely local, but it is of such a character that it cannot be but temporary. We allude to the calls lately made by the banks for demand loans. The steamer North Star, at this port from Aspin- wall, brings fourteen days later intelligence from Califor- nia, The news is much more favorable than that brought vy fhe previous steamers, and confirms the anticipa- tions relative to an increase in the product of the mines upon the opening of the season. This will give greater activity to trade, and remove, partially at least, the de- pression and dulness which have so long existed. The State Treasurer of California gives the following explana- tion regarding the recent non-payment, in this city, of the interest on the State stock, by the accredited agent:— Orrrcr oF STATE TREASURER, BesrctA, California, Feb. 4, 1854. Mossra. Joun C. Hays, D. C. BRODERICK and E. L. BEARD: GrxtimaEX—Recent advices from the Atiantie having brought the intelligence that the interest falling due upon the bonds of the State of California, on the Ist of January, 1864, faled'to be met by the agent of Messrs. Palmer, Cook & Co., in the city of New York, I have in consequence of such report instituted an investigation in reference to thexnatter, and find that remittances amply sufficient to meet the demand were duly made by Messrs. Palmer, Cook & Co. the agents of the State, in the city of San Francisco, and should have been in the city of New York on the day on which the interest fell due. The American Exchange Bank is the agent of Messrs. Palmer, Cook & Co. in New York, and to this institution the remittances were made. Why the money was not paid over by this institution I am unable to say. In due course of mail it should have been received by them previous to the day of Payment. This communication is made toyou in justice to Messrs. Palmer, Cook & Co., on whose bond you appear as sureties. I am, respectfully, your obed’t servant, S. A. McMEANS, State Treasurer.
