The ollector is now charged with having taken half the proceeds, and paid the ex- penses out of other half, and then sending the ba- lance of that other half to Washington. ‘The Collector claws that be is entitled to one half share of the property oniemned; Le claims, in addition to the reguiar salary wed hun, three per cent on all he collected, amount- 0 95.

A. Collier replied for the defendant, saying that he proposed to give the jury a general outline of the history of this extraordinary case, showing the law un der which the Collector was appointed, the course p sued by the government, the siate in which the found things in an almost unknown port, the duties per- formed by him, the embarrassments he met with in the performance of those duties, and the great respansibili- ties under which he was placed; the defendant in this case invited the strictest scrutiny into his conduct, for there never was s case in which the public have been so misled as to the duties and state of accounts between the Collector and the government. In 1849, was first | pasved the Revenue law extending over the newly t quired district ot California, which was to take the 10th day of March then next ensuing. Counsel here read the statute. There were no courts of law thea or- ganized in California, and jurisdiction was given to the Siate ef Oregon and Louisiana, where suits for the viola tion of revenue laws Were to be prosecuted by the Yector. Under this act the Collector was appointed, a: Mr. George Law and he (Mr. J. A. Collier,) becar securities. The government, for some reason 01 desired that the Collector, instead of procees own way to California, should accompany a cort, and be was notified that he was requir b ¥ort Leavenworth on a particular day. He accordingly proceeded across the plains with the troops in May, and reached his destination in the November following, after great hardships, several months after his appointment. In November he entered on the duties of his office, and pilee! ly before and for the same purpose; ean’t say that I have seen deceased and prisoner throwing for drinks before; second time: at the time the prisoner put bis hands on the shoulders of the deceased saw nothing of an unfriendly character in it; the scuffle continued a very short time— abouta minute Isnppose:did not see them fall; saw them when down; don’t know by what means the prisoner was thrown dewn; they Iny upon the floor for about half a minute; heard nothing said by either; saw no blood upon her when they got up; immediately on getting up their controversy of words began; can’t say who com- menced it; can’t remember what was said; they had high’ words and quarrelled pretty | have known Wilson for about four years; have worke with him about o year; b the amount he drank, was unusual; I should judge he | had been drinking some days prior to this harder than usual; did not see him work that day; he was visiting mo that morning instead of working at his own shop; he ap peared different to me that morning—t is, he was ex- ited; he had no business with mo that morning except- friendly call; about half an hour passed between was placed there alone to enforce the revenue laws.’ We | {he time he came itito my place au the tive of the feral had no naval officers, vo appraisers, no surveyors, D0 | occurrence; prisoner appeared excited through all the courts of law in Calllornia.

There were no mails then, and it took four months to communicate with the government and receive their reply, and he was therefore obliged to act and rely on his own judgment, and to see that tho laws Were executed. At that time there was a great rash to California; vessels from all quarters of the globe were there, and cases occurred every day in which the reve- nue laws were placed at cetance. The Collector gave notice that the laws of the United States should be strict- ly enforced, and that their Yjolation would not be tole- rated. He (counsel) mentioned this because it had been intimated that the Collector had acted in an arbitrary In many instances the owners consented to forfeiture of the property in order toavoid the trouble and expense of trial. They abandoned all claim to the goods; the Collector proceeded to sell and converted the properiy into money, and paid over to the government the yvition to which they were entitled, and le contends 1 he is entitled to the residue. If this course had not en adopted by the Collector—had he stored the grode—nelther he nor the government could have realized anything in consequence of the great expense of storage. From the necessity ci things, the Collector was obliged ‘to assume great responsibility; he had to baild a wharf ‘aia cost of $22,000; it was cut down by some mischiev- ous persons and the timber strewn about. He charged ‘the cost «f the wharf to the government, and no objec- tion to that item was made until after his term of ‘office had expired. The governwent had had the use of the wharf, it was left to the next Collector, yet the $22,000 that it cost go to swell the balance claimed by the government arainst the Collector. The cw n he not suited for the busine. it had no vaults, no safe in it, and persons ¢ dy the Colle were obliged to sleep there with re- vo.vers with’ The Collector was, conse quently, cem; other building at California rates, scme h, for eight months. The Secretary at Washington, alarmed at California rates, re- fused to allow it; that item is disclaimed, and behold tho Collector is charged asa defaulter in that insiance to the amount of $45,000.

Cross-examination resumed—Prisoner appeared to be oppressed in his mind; should judge it was twelve or fourteen feet from the door to the stove. Coroner O'Donxell sworn—Am one of the coroners of the city, and saw the body of deceased; held the inquest the same day; saw the knife and had if in my possession ever since: (knife exhibited to witness); that is the knife; it has not been sharpened since; the inquest was held in the afternoon on the 28th of February; was not | present at the post mortem examination; saw ‘the body Of the deceased; the prisoner was present at the inquest; the prisoner di | be did not appear to be sober; his manner | be appearest to be suffering from the consequences of too wuch stimulus; there was @ great deal of lovity about his conduct, Am a practising physician of this ustoraed to see the conseguences of 8; it aillects the entire nervous system; it wntal faculties; it had not progressed so as terise it as delirium tremens; I call it tremens stem is overthrown; he had taken act with imprudence; I saw that was wild, as if he bad been indulging to excess; he wildness of the eye is one of the sympioms of all de- vangements of the mental faculties; there was no symp- evity is not one of the symptoms; the prisoner had not that serious air t ta main ought ‘to have under the cir- more, and ull he asked the court and jury isto be | cumstances; he exhibited thoughtless bravado; I saw him allowed to retain in his own hands the fees and the | guring the inquest, from three to five hours; he wa: Pitiful salary of $1,600 a year; he asked no more, and he | present the whole time; he had no stimulus throughout expected no more.

The govern- ment made no objection at the time, but now that he comes to settle his account itis disputed. The Collector rented the eld custom house to the firm of Palmer & Co. for $0,000 a year, which is also charged to him in the account, though he never received it, and Mr. Palmer ‘on his visit to Washington informed 'the goverament that he had not paid tho Collector. The lvarned coun- fel then enumerated several other items of claims made by the Collector for expenses incurred on the part of the United States, but which are disallc He stated that he, (counsel) was one of Mr. Colliers’ securities, and he | was notashamed to own he was his brother, though he is here held up to the country asa defaulter. it also appeared from the statement of ‘the counsel that the of- fice of a deputy of the Collector was broken open in Cali- fornia, and about $14,000 stolen while the deput | ter. Some persons were arr: under susp cumstances; large sums of money were found upon. but the Collector could not identify the mone being all in specie—there was, therefore, a difficulty in eon- Victing them. The jury disagreed, and the prisoners, rather than be put on trial again, compromised the mat ter by giving up a portion of the 'moaey; and they were setat large. The Collector paid his counsel fees out of the amount returned, so that not a dollar of that money caine into his hands. Two of these fellows subsequently fell into the hands of a tribunal which the jury may have heard of, though they have no such body in New York— Vigilance Coramittee.”” They took therm, not for this felony, but for another, and they hung them both, but on the gallows they confessed the robbery of the Collector's room at Mont Counsel went on to state that the Collector's appointment being repudiated by the Senate, he was at the time of the robbery out of office, yet the government charge him with the money stclen from the office of the Deputy Collector. ‘The Sub-Treasurer of the city of New York hes some muillions of dollars in his possession, and the law pro- vides that if it should be taken by a mob or lost. by fre the government cannot make him responsible for it. Mr. Citier claimed that the late Collector at San Francisco had been belied by the publication of these imaginary balances of accounts. He was@ways willing to pay up what was due, but he denied the legality of the claim made by the government. Counsel continued his argument till the rising of the court.

He bad been there twice before, and on each ocersion had taken something to drink.

Such reports are usually pub- lished at the interesting period when mining companies are cradled into existence, and not, as is the case with the Phenix, after the embryo has lingered through a de- clining existence of several months, We have no reason, however, to doubt the truth of ang of Mr. Stagg’s state. ments, or the value of the Phenix Mine; and when we | bear in mind that the capital stock is only $800,000, we cannot help considering that forthe last four or five months Phenix stock has been cheap.
