‘Trial of John M. Fenety for Arson. COURT OF OYER AND TERMINER. Before Hon. Judge Roosevelt. Apau. 17.—The court met this morning at 10 o'clock The counsel employed for the defence in the case of Mr and Mrs. Hays, intimated that they were ready to pro ceed with the trial, which was set down for yesterday ‘The District Attorney said that two material witnesses were unable to attend in consequence of illness. Mrs Latener was in a delicate state of health and could not ibly appear, and Mr. Shallow was suifer.ng from langerous nity He could not be ready with the case for several days, and would set it down for uext Th day week. It would be utterly impossible to try the this week. After some discussion the trial was se down for the day specified. The trial of John M. Fenety, for arson in the first de gree, was then taken up. ‘The circumstances of the case willappear from the opening remarhs of the District Attorney. The District Attorney said that the charge against the the prisoner was (hat of arson in the first degree. This ase | charges against | offence consists in the wilful setting fire to a dwelling | night time, there being at the time some ein. that on the 26th of February, 1853, the prisoner, John Fe pro ed a policy of insurance, to be effected in the Pacific Fire Insurance Company in this city, upon the merchandise contained in the store No. 383 Fighih aveuue, the amount of that policy being $2,000; and that on the 25th of March he procured another poli cy to be effected on the merchandise in the same store, to the amount of $2,500, in the Greenwich Fire Insurance Company, making a total of $4,500 of insurance contained in that stor Iv will be shown to you that these prem- ises were occupied in the upper part by a family, who were there at the time of the breaking out of the fire. On the morning of the 23d of August, about four o'clock, in the morning, the inmates of the house were aroused by a smeil of smoke in the upper apartment, and having their suspicions excited on certain matters which had oc- curred during the day previous, and the female of the house having several times in the course of the night an- ticipated some fire, rising from her bed, from these s| picions, went to the entry, and found it full of smoke, and the fire had progressed so far that while the female was on the roof the male was obliged to go into the back room and close the door, ana there be remained until it was ex tinguished. it will be shown by the clerk of the jrisoner that on the evening of the first of August, ® proposition was made to him by the prisoner to tire the premises, upon the allegation that he had some notes coming due, and an offer of $500 was made to him te fire the premises, and that afler some remonstranees it would seem, from the subsequent acts of tne parties, as if there hac been a concert of action in the crime or yielding on the part of the clerk to his employer. There was ia the store a porter and another clerk, and in the fternoon of the first of August these three, the pris- «ner, clerk and porter, were busily engaged in the store in removing boxes from one part of the cellar to another. Yhe District \ttorney said it would be shown that the porter was seut for a candle; that this, about four inches in length, was lighted and placed in a position calculated to fire the premises, and that Fenety left the candle burn- ing in thatcondition. It would also appear that a num ber of the boxes, purporting to contain teas and coffees, were filled with saw dust. The cave was quite plain, be cause the testimony was positive. If the witness Rourke is to be believed, there was no doubt whatever of the prisoner’s guilt.’ He was free to say that his (Rourke’s) evidence was to be looked upon with great suspicion, for toa certain extent he stood in the position of an accom- plice. It was for them to determine how far he was or was not to be credited in @ case of this description. Amos T.

Picayune, April 102] Frm Dav.—Yesterday being the last day of the Me- tairie Jockey Gud meeting, anda day of recreation to many yho are usually engaged in business, there was a very large attendance at the course. The fame of the two horses that were to contend for the club purss of $1,000, at three mile heats, was well known, anda fast | race war confidently anticipated. Arrow having ran a four mile dash in 7:39, on the 6th of January last, dnish- ing the last mile in a gallop, and Little Flea having, on Wednesday last, run and saved his distance against the fivet Blonde, who made the then fastest three mile race on record, viz. : §:3644 and 6:34, all gave token that if both of them were t,’? time would be literally used up. The betting before the start was in favor pf Arrow, at odds of about 100 to 40, at which figure considerable amounts were staked. On starting for the first heat oq Arrow took the lead, aud kept it for two milea by about | four lengths, When Flea gradually closed up the gup, and | on the backetretch of the third mile locked and appr- rently passed Arrow handily. Arrow now made great efforts to regain the lead, but the pace had been so tre- mendous from the start, that he could not do so; Little Flea, to the surprise of every one, kept up his rapid run, and won the heat by a trifle, in the fastest time on record, 14. Arrow bad in the last few jumps of the heat evidently been gaining, and as the two passed the Judge's stand, Arrow waa at the saddle girth of Flea. ths Flea, and eppeared more distressed by his exertion and the great heat of the sun, the race by some persons | was looked upon as almost finished, Flea becoming the favorite at odds of 100 to 20. In the second heat Arrow again led the way, opening a large gap, and apparently running with more ease and steadiness than in the first heat. Arrow kept the lead, in spite of every effort of Flea to take it, although he strove hard to do so; bat Arrow won the heat in the quick time of 5:36, by two open lengths. Again the betting changed, and Arrow came into favor at odds of 160 to 30. In the third heat Arrow again led off, soon opening a gap of twelve lengths, and nover more even lapped, winning the heat and rage handily, by eight clear lengths, in 5:4334. ‘The whole race was a most remarkable one, the time being the best on record at three mile heats. The two first heats were also as exciting ever witnessed ona race course; but we must stop our remarks and give the figures. SUMMARY. Sunnay, April 9.—Club purse $1,000, three mile heats. D.F.

There had already been some skirmishing, and it does — not seem s0 certain, from previous accounts of the result, that the latest intelligence ia most to be relied on. From the first, however, it has been stated that throughout the route over which Santa Anna had tra- velled, he had found manifestations of most cheerful and fi adhesion to him. The latest reports give in- stances Of several who had at first joined Alvarez havi: abandoned him, and sought and obtained pardon an reconciliation from the govornment. One whole district within the assumed jurisdiction of Alvares had joined | Santa Anna, One of the first occurrences of note’ since | our last advices happened to a detachment which was escorting some four or five staff officers and a small con- voy of money, near the river Mescala. Ari at the bank of the river the little troop halted to reconnoitre and find a convenient ford. Their indian guide inyited them to go ~ toa safer place, as he said, situated be- yond an adjoining wood. They agreed without distrust, and fell into an ambuscade prepared by one of Alvarez’s partisans, a guerilla priest, named Villalba. One of the officers, Senor Monterde, was captured, and was reported to have been immediately cruelly put to death, Peres Palacios, commanding the advanced guard of the government expedition, however, in an official despatch to the Minister of War, announces the capture at about the same time, or immediately afterwards, of the rebel Lieutenaut Colonel Jose Maria Torres, and the _ subalterns, 1D. Laureano Rodrigues and D.N’ Arroyo. The first wue to be shot; the others had been handed over to a court martial. Alvarez, apprised of the capture of Torres, who, it | would appear, is a person of consequence, standing and influence, in Guerrero, immediately wrote to Gen, Pala- clos, advising him that he would be held personally re- sponsible for the fate of Torres, in revenge for whose death, thould he be shot, Alvaréz threatened he would cause’ Lieut. Col. Sambouino, Licut. Holainger, of the navy, and scme other officers not named, whom ‘he had kept in his custody as hostages from the cominencement of hostilities, to be immediately shot. Atthe same time he proposed an exchange of prisoners. General Palacios having referred Alvarez’a communicn- tion to the Minister of War, the latter said that justice must take its course without reference to its threats. ‘The Commandant-General, in replying to Alvarez, makes the statement that his prisoners had been seized with having been in any way engaged against suing their peaceful avocations. In short, this comma nicatio. is very long, dwells on the atrocity of the t! but at the same time professes not to be surpri their being committed by Alvarez, seeing his character and position in Guerrero. The latest uceounts received, however, leave Torres and his fellow prisoners alive, and endeavoring to ex- cuse or justify themselves. Torres is reported to have declared that when he was surprised by the troops of the supreme government he was on his way to place himself t But he did not appear to have established The Padre chief Villalba was reported, on the 28th ult., to be pursued by the government troops and the inha- bitants of the circumjacent villages, that he had been driven to bis dernier resort, his forces being complotely dispersed. * Alvarez, at the same'date, was confined to the hill of Peregrino, the hacienda of La Brea and El Coquilla ; and was entirely without resources, as indeed he is reported to have been all along, and desertion was daily and ra- pidly thinning his ranks. On the 29th ult., information was sent from Michoa- chan, announ: the capture of the chief, Gordiano Guzman, with his son, and a man named Ramos, and adding that the forces under them had declared their adhesion to the “national cause.’” Perfect taanquillity is said to be reigning in all except the narrow districts to which Alvarez and Villalea are re- ported to be confined. Santa Anna would appear to be acting with his usual tack. We find it , for in- stance, in the Zraitd’ Union, that nine persons compro- mised in the revolt having presented themselves sponta- neously to the military chief of Cocula, Don J. M. Mata, ce there are several such instances reported,) the esident taking into consideration the circumstances, granted a fulland uncondition’l pardon. And again, on ‘is route, he has contributed munificently to various popular purposes, getting in return municipal addresses ‘and applause. ‘There are reports of another attempt ata conspiracy inGuanajuata. D. Mariana Custa and D. Susano Salus, have been arrested on the charge of being concerned in it. On searching their papers full particulars are said to have been discovered ; but they are not stated in the pa- pers before us. A court martial had been summoned to try them, and active measures taken to prevent the pro- they were engaged from being prosecuted. ‘ihe terma on which the privilege of constructing a railway from Vera Cruz to the city of Mexico had been ranted, #8 we sore time ago announced, to Senor 1). von Laurier Richards, haying been considered objection- able by the capitalists’ to whom he had applied in Lon- don for the means wherewith to prosecute it, the Mexi- can government has made the necessary modifications. ‘The decree containing them is published in the /Meraldo of the Sth inst. They relate to the rates of charges to bo made, and to the dividends to be declared. ‘The report about Gen. Cos having placed some obsta- cles im the way of the prosecution ‘of the works on the isthmus, is indignantly and emphatically denied, and he is spoken of as being most friendly to it. Senor Don F. de la Vega had proceeded to Mexico to give Santa Anna personal assurances of his patriotism and fidelity, and was about to follow him to the South for tLe purpose. A project for lighting the city of Mexico with gas was about Veing commenced, and would be followed by simi- lar ones in other cities of the republic. The Caroline and the Guerrero were being fitted out at Mazatlan, for the purpose of protecting Acapuleo, on the coast. Great efforts were being made to get them ready. The Diario, official, announces that Senor Don Ramon Lozano Armenia, who had lately arrived, as Minister Plenipotentiary from Spain, was the bearer of the ratifi- cation of the treaty entered into last year for the pay- mont of S;anish claims on Mexico. Don Jose Bustamente, Secretary to the late Legation to Costa Rico and Nicaragua as Minister, and the Marquis late Minister to Mexico to Berlin, ia the same be ay ho det Comercio, of the 5th, complains that some sixty adventurers hac landed at the island of Los Areno- ras, lying cast of Sisal, and were illegally appropriating the guano on it,sending it off in two vessels they had there. e A new copscription law has been issued, in which the population is assumed at 7,661,520 in number, and the sony is ordered to consist of 16,000 men and the militia of 30,000, Don Gregorio Gomez Palomino has been appointed Di- rector of the Post Office Department, vacant by the death of Don Anaya. ‘The Indians still continued to commit ravages, notwith- standing the government forces were gaining advantages over them at some points. THE LATEST. We learn that just previously to the sailing of the Texas from Vera Cruz, a telegraphic despatch had been received there, announcing the cessation of hostilities between Alvarez and Santa Anna. The latter, it is reported, had offered concessions to Alvarez, which had led to an un- dersianding, and an arrangement of the difliculties be- tween the two parties. A communication which we have received from the city of Mexico, dated the 4th inst., gives a very diiferent view of the state of affairs with Santa Anna and his forces in the South, from that Whick the intelligence gathered | from the newspapers Would induce us to Velieve. Ac- cording to the statement of the writer, the goverament forces, since their arrival at Chilpancingo, had dwiadled away very materially. More thana thousand are re- ported to be sick in hospital, and the muster roll exposes a desertion of more than 2,000 men. So that, without any serious encounter, the forces of Santa Anna are re- duced, at the lowest estimatesby some three thousand and more. Alvarez, on the contrary, is reported to be in posses- | sion of impregnable positions, while additional chiefs and fellowers are joining him daily, and he is infusing terror into fonta Anna, as will be perceived, says our corres- pendent, from the circumstances of ‘the treatment of Torres, and the threat of Alvsres to avenge his death, and in'which nothing but fear could have been the ruling motive with Santa Anna in restraining him from imme- diately executing Torres. The hill of Peregrino, our correspondent says, has been fortified by Alvarez, and is perfecily impregnable. It is an exceedingly high mountain, accessible only by a wind- ing road, alovg which there is not room for men to walk but in single fle. He has mounted a battery there, by whieh all points are commanded, and he has mined many of these, to that if any of the troops sent against him should escare the effects of the cannon, they will have a yet more destructive asault to encounter. Our correspondent dwells on this mode of defenco with great confidence, and refers to instances in the war of in- dependeace, in which it was resorted to with signal auc- cess. Our correspondent then says that hostilities were to be commenced on the day he wrote, and that the general opinion of intelligent people was, that Santa Anna wold be defeated, as his officers were ignorant cowards, und his soldiers forced levies, who would soon sock aatoty in flight. Should Santa Anna bo defeated st Peregrino, the peo ple elsewhere would rise en maste against hima, ani he must be overthrown. Alvarez, he says, is destined to be the avengee of the republic, who will shoot him without waiting for his confession. ‘The rystem of terror, ons correspondent says, con- tinues in the enpital. Well-paid spies circulate every- where, and few days pass without threo or four arrests of uotable persons, and many respectable men are being punished as eriminals for having complained that Santa Anna governs badly. Gordiano Guzman, whose arrost we have already noticed, our correspondent says had been bougit over by Santa Anna for $5,000. GRAPHIC. Baummong, April 18, 1954.
