Loerer, called for the defence, was examined by Major Wyse as follows:— Question—Did you inspect the steamer Paleon wiile lying at the foot of Werren street, before going to sea in her with the detachment composed of compauies D, G, Kandl? Answer—I did, under an order from » Wyse. Was she in a fit state to take those troops to Aspin. wall in? A. Not in my opinion, without being first proved by a trial trip; 1 thought that nee Q. Describe her condition in all respects. A. There were several engineers there; they said sho had under. idence of it, bat I thought’ she gone repairs; of course I could see no e from that fact, or their statement of ht to have a trial trip: her engine ai dirty, and ahe appeared dirty throughout the wholo ship; her general apyearanes was bad; the paint on many parts of her was still green aud very olfensive, ald not touch the fresh paint without ge engineer, or the person who seemed t charge of the engine, appeared unable to answer ques tions and give information about the machinery, from tne fact that ho had not been, or said that he hai not been, on the boat before. Q You have stated that What is your conclusion as ou examined the Falcon. fo her being sea:vorthy at the time of the examination. A. My pinion is that she was not seaworthy without a fall trial; I mean that | (hought she was not seaworthy; and I would not haye been satisfied of the contrary without a fall triat of her at sea, showing that she was. Describe the conduct of the steamer after you until she put into Norfolk. A. After wo left New York she went along very slowly until somo time in the firat night, when she was stopped for some repairs the next day her trim was changed; it was thouglt she was too much by the head; but she was no better for the ehange; during the dey 1 examined her working and she was hardly able to work her engine with all the steam she could get on, at least so the engineer said; she went along very slowly until eight o'clock on Friday morning, when the engine was again stepped for three or four hours for repairs did no better and the Captain conch: st port he United States, seeing that we could not get aloog anchored in Hampton Roads Sunday morning, the 284; we left the port Tuesday the 18th.

The | best of my knowledge and belief.” Major Wyse requested the Court toajourn, as he wish- ed to procure evidence from the city, by the testimony of citizens, whom he could not keep in attendance on the Court. The evidence required, he said, was to the follow- | ing poings:— POINTS FOR THE DEFENCE. 1. We propose to show that the reputation of the steamer Falcon, as a seaworthy vessel at the time Major Wyse was ordered to lead his troops on board of her, was bad among nautical men, and such as justly to awaken apprehensions on the part of Major Wyse for the safety of his command, should they go to sea in her. 2. We propose to show that the Faleon was built in 1846, anc her Loilers in October, 1850, and that she stood as second and third rate vessel on ‘the records of the insurance companies in New York, and that such was her character, as given in ull the official surveys made of her. 8. We propose to show, by an official survey of the Falcon just mage by the Wardens of the port of New York,that she is badly strained in her timbers and knees, and that Ler joint construction is such as to cause her to labor and Troll badly at sea, and to expose her deck passengers to great danger in a storm, 4. We propose to show that ihe engine of the Falcon at the time she sailed, was in such a defective state as inevitably to render it nearly powerless, 5. We. propose to show. that in the opinion of engi- neers and nautical men, Major Wyse waa entirely correct in the opinion that the Falcon should have male a trial tip before proceeding to sea with passengers; aa a pre- cautionary measure ordinary prudence required such a trip 8, Winder was , U.S. A, who facts are true to the 6, We propose to show that the general equipments 4 condition of the Faleon were not such as to afford the officers ond soldiers proper accommodations on the voyage to Aspinwall ose to show that the event has proved that se in regard to this steamer was 8. We propose to show that the military character of Major Wyse it such as to afford strong presumptive evi- dence against the truth of the second charge. ¢ Court, in accordance with the request of the r, decided on adjourning, bat before doing so Col. Steptoe was examined for the defence. TESTIMONY OF COL. STEPTOR. } Q How long have you been acquainted with Major Wyse as an officer in the army, and what is his charac- r cflicerlike and gentle y conduct? A.

But there ‘s ‘us who have not been accustomed to regard revolutions and battles as every toy coment as well as much that is newand interesting in the country itself, if one can forget politics and the fact that it is neces- sary to carry a pair of revolvers if you wish to go on an antiquarian excursion. the present Political condition of Peru it is peculiarly hard to speak, for the administration de facto takes particular pains to mistify every report that comes from insur- nts, and to make everything appear favorable to itself. ¢ cov ernment itself is prof iy republican, but really amili‘ary despotism. Don Domi ) who with Gen. Castilla, is the loading opinthod. ¢ revolutionists, was formerly Governor of the Chincha Islands, under the present administration. He was recalled, being charged with embezzlement of public money, and severely repri- manded and degraded, exas by which he retorted upon the government by exposing some of its own dis- honest proceedings. As the eyes of the people were be- ginning to be opened to the fact that they never received any benefit from the immense guano trace at the Chin- chas and various other sources of revenue, the stato- ments of Elias were easily accredited, and the adminis teation, catching the alarm, construed his charges into treason and imprisoned him. He made his eecape and went by land 10 Tumbez with a few of his partizans, and being closely pursued by a body of government troops, took refuge in the house of Dr. Oakford, United States Consul at Tumbez, representing himeelf and followers to be innocent men, pursued by a band of lawless marauders. The troops arrived and fired into the house , Kill | ing two of F inder, with their leader, made their escape. ‘The consul deemed this an insult to our flag, and bas applied to this government for redress, through his Excelleney J. Randolph Clay, U. 8. M to Pern. This demand has been denied, and the | referred to our home governmeut. The Americin citi- zens bere are very indignant that such outrages as this one and that of the bayonetting of the American ship: masters at the Chincha Islands, so long since, should remain unsettled. ‘The Peruvian government pretend t» be constantly receiving despatches from their represen tative at Washington, saying that both these affairs are tled; being omicably settled; but, strange to say, no d patches or communications of any kind in rd to the matter have been received by our minister, The Ameri- can shipmasters arriving from the Chigchas with gvano, express themselves most bitterly in regard to. the insults they are subjected to there, and threaten to take the law into their own hands if something is not done soon. But to return to the revolution. Elias went from Tam- bez by sea to Pisco, and gained Gen. Gastilla, a war-worn veteran and a great favorite with the people, to his . They raised an insurgent force, but, owing to their want of money, Were unable to arm the numbers | which flocked to their standard, and have to depend in a great measure upon the sloy but sure method of gaining over the people by spreading the seeds of discontent and rebellion. | _ The provinces of Arequipa, Puno, Moquegna and Tacna declared for Castilla, and the rumor now is that Elias is in Lima with numbers of his partisans, preparing to rise when the proper time shall come. He does not aspire to the presidency himself, but supports Gen. Castilla. The present administration is evidently on the decline, | distracted as it is by the war with Bolivia on the north- ern frontier, and the rebellious provinces on the south. | Some time since all the government specie, amounting | to over two millions of dollars, together with State papera of importanee, were removed from Lima and placed on | board the Peruvian steam frigate Amazonia for security, | and since have been transferred on board the British storeship Naiad, under the protection of that flag. Tho | last news from the rebels was that an action took place | on the 4th of March at Cajamarea, between a body of 600 government troops and 1,500 rebels, only 500 of whom were aimed, and they very poorly. ‘The latter are said | to have been totally routed, with loss of thirty killed. Gen. Castilla remains strongly entrenched at Arequipa, in which it is sald that it will be impossible n fr lodge him Peru is literally suffering under war, pestilence and famine. The Monteneros, or black robbers of the moun- tains, have grown fo strong and bold, since the breaking | out of the civil war, that they make descents upon whole towns along the coast. It is unsafe even to m: hort excursion into the country without being well armed, and instances of highway robbery under fhe very wall3 of Lima are of every day occurrence. We were somewhat surprised the other day by the sud- den arrival of one hundred and fifty of our ‘fellow citi- zens,” in an emigrant ship from Australia. They started with the intention of going to the head waters of the Amazon; but thelr ardor bas so mugh eooled dariug the voyage from Australia that only tw@nty-five of them in- tend l.ceping on to the Amazon, while the remainder are intending to take the next steamér for Panama; some to 0 Lome across the Isthmus, and others to try their luck at cold digging once more’ in California. ‘Thoy report twelve other vessels as having been chartered for this ce by Americans at the time they sailed, and they say less than five thourand Americans are now on from Australia to the head waters of the Ama- Vermonters among the number of era,and they are determined, toa man, straight track for the Green Mountains, and eu they get there !?? h has been raging with great violence a, is abated in-a great measure, and it ped that it scon will be entirely gone, Strangers ard persons uneeclimated have been the principla sufver- ers, and many a poor fellow within the lust two mouths, bas laid his bones on the lonely island of Son Lorenzo, as the barbarous laws of Peru deny burial on the main lond to Protest 5 ‘The bay is crow th shipping, principally Ameri- cans, as this fs the port of entry for the Chincha Istands, ‘There cannot be less than eighty American vessels now | lying here, and there are reported to be above a bnn- cred more at the Chinchas.

H The German Society of the city of New York was organized in the year 1784, to assist German emigrants, and to afford relief to distressed Germans and their descendants. It was incorporated by the Legislature on the 6th of April, 1804. | This society now numbers about six hundred members, | who elect érery year, of the 224 day of February, 4 Board of thirteen directors, who choosé from among {hemsc] ves a President, two Vice Presidents, a Treasurer, and two Secretaries. Among the above members this society has the advantage to possess thirty-two of the most eminent German physicians, who render at all times their most Valuable gratuitous services to any ap- plicants recommended by the inspectors.. In order to visit and administer to the wants of the sick and needy ina most speedy and circumspect manner, the society | has divided New York city, Brooklyn and Williamsburg into twenty districts, and in each of these one of the | members performs the very laborious task of a visiter or inspector. An arrangement has been entered into with fourteen well known German druggists, by which all medicines are to the society at one-half their one prices, thereby promoting considerably its chari- table work. ‘The yearly income is by interest on funded capital..$1,450 Yearly contributions received from members... 5,600, ‘The annual granted for the past years has been about as follows:— Donations for temporary aid to about... 6,500 Visits made by the physicians ‘ .... 7,500 Medicines administered Md ++ 6,600 « Places of employment procured for about.10,000 ‘The emigration from Germany into the port of Now York has been, during the last five years, as follows:— 1849, « 55,626 1852 1 persona. | give the emigrant useful advice before he leaves his fatherland, by monthly and yearly reports, published in the principal American and European German news- pers. yapeiTo protect bim, as far as in its power lies, against fraud and imposition on his journey hither. 3. To afford him on his arrival here all necessary in- formation, aid him in the pursuits of bis journey, obtain employment, and in case of sickness or destitution give him immediate assistance. 4. To extend temporary relief to the resident needy Germans or their descendants, and obtain for them from the government institutions such aid as they may be entitled to. 6. To procure at all timea employment for the indus- trious, and extend medical aid and assistance to the sick. ‘The society, further, is the safest channel through which Germans in the Unitea States can communicate with their relations in Europe, in case they have no trusty friend in an Atlantic seaport. . ‘As the English language is foreign to the majority of the German emigrants, and three-quarters of the entire German emigration comes to this port, it is very evident that this society is a necessity, and of the greatest im- portance, and every German in the Union, whose means will allow it, should be proud to be one of its members. ‘The office of the “German Society of the City of New York”’ removed on the Ist of May, from No. 104 to No, 78 ¢ nwich street, where an agent and sub-ageat are in daily attendance. ‘The President is Rud.

Assault and Battery.—William Divine, indicted for as- sault and battery, with intent to kill, pleaded guilty to agsault and battery only. The court accepted his plea, and the prisoner was remanded, in order to give his coun- selan opportunity of putting in affidavits in mitigation of punishment. Edward Brady, indicted for an attempt to commit may- hem on the person of James Montgomery, pleaded guilty to assault and battery. The plea was accepted, and the defendant was sentenced to six months confinement in the Penitentiary. Burglary inthe Third Degree.—Dernard Martin was tried and convicted of burglariously entering the store of Mr. Noey, merchant tailor, and stealing therefrom several hundred dollars worth of cloths. ‘The Court sen- tenced him to five years imprisonment in the State prison. " Forging én the Fourth Degree.—John Gillis pleaded guilty to forging in the fourth degree, and was remanded for sentence. Grand Larceny.—Fawara Goetcher pleaded guilty to grand larceny, in having stolen twenty promissory notes, valued at five dollars each, from Charles Hewlett. Re- munded for sentence. ACQUITTED. Manslaughter in the Fourth —Francis McKenna was then placed at the bar, charged with having, by cul- able negligence, caused the death of Col. Wm. Harrison, late proprietor of the Northern Hotel, Cortlandt street, | by knocking him down and driving one of the Knicker- Docker line of stages over his body. For the defence it ‘was proven that every exertion was made by the defend- ant to stop the stage in time to prevent the fatal occur- rence; therefore the jury, in view of these facts, rendered & verdict of acquittal. Destructive Fire in Lockport, N. ¥. [From the Lockport Courier, May 1.] On Saturday night last another lacge fire ocearred on | Main street, destroying the long row of wooden stotes between Raneom’s Mock and the brick building occapied Trude asa meat market, and several dwelling houses in the rear on Centre alley. The fire broke out ; about 11 o'clock, in the store ocoupied by J. Cothran, ad. joining Rensom’s block, and the building being old’and ‘f wood, it spread with great rapidity. Had it not been for the damp state of the weather, it is probable that tho fire would have extended still further. As it was, it was with thegreatest difficulty that it could be coniined to the point where its progress was stayed. The following surpmary of the losses we presume are nearly corre: ‘The store in which the fire caught, and the two next edjoining on (he west, together with the gothic dwelling house on the alley, were owned by J. Kk. Gridley, upon which there was no insurance. The buildings were not ef much valve, still they probably paid interest oa froin 38,000 to $10,000. ‘The first of those stores, where the fire first broke out, was occupied by J. Cothran as a grocery, and his entire stock was destroyed. He was in- sured for $2,000, which probably covers loss. The next store Was ocaupled by John Humphrey, as a harness and tronk shop. His stock was large and valuable, and was much damaged Ly fire and removal. We understand he Is insured for $700, which will not cover loss. The third and last of the Gridley stores was occupied by T. W. Webver, grocer. His stock was uearly all removed, and an insurance of $400 which he has upon it will cover his a The next two stores and & dwelling in the rear of them on the alley, were owned by John Alexander, On these | buildings hie had an insurance of $1,000, which probably covers loss. The first of these stores was occupied by Dr. P. Cadwaliader, asa drag store. His stock was mostly removed, but ina damaged condition. He had an insur- ance of $800, which doubtless covers the losa.

He was insured for $2,000, ‘The sixth and of the stores that were burned, wis owned and cceup 1 was mostly removed i 10 on buildis which makes him whole. We have not learaed whether he was insured en stock or not. ‘The dwelling houses which were burned, were each oc- | eupied by several families, whose goods were more or less injured by removal and fire. Samuel Trude, butcher, | suffered considerable loss by the removal of his stock. So also did Alfred Day, dealer in Yankee notions. The: were both insured. 1. F. Maseey, owner of tho gree store, suifered loss by the removal of goods from the s cond story, and by the tearing down of a wooden struc- ture in the rear of that building. He was insured. Ransom’s block was injured somewhat by the fire, as Was also the occupant of the first store in that block.’ | Tue Loss on THR Laxes.—The Chi estimates the loss by the late gale on Lake Michigan as follows @ Olive Richmond, total loss, valued at $2,700, cargo, $2,350, no insurance; the Rocky Mountain, total loss, valued at’ $2,000, insured for $1,000, cargo | $1,000, no insurance; the Merchant, total loss, valued at $2,000, cargo $600, no insurance; the Arrow, Value $5,000, insured $1,000; the P.
