CONVICTION FOR ARSON, THE PEVERELLY CASE. Court of General Seasions. Before Hon. Judge Beebe. Mov. 18.—In the case of Charles H. Peverelly, after bad summed up, Judge Beebe charged the jury as fol- dows :-— This case, gentlemen of the jury—one of exceeding importance—which has been greatly protracted—calling Iergely upon your time and upon the time of the court— ia wow fast drawing to its termination. It is xceed- ingly important one, not alone from its consequences to ‘the prisoner, but it is exceedingly important in its con- gequences to the community at large. There is no crime known to the law of a deeper dye than that of arson— there is no crime which involves a greater amount of eaunot protect itself; and if the defendant in this case, who is charged with an attempt to commit that crime, ie guilty, no sympathy should prevent you from fulfill- img the stern discharge of your duty. This case is ex- ceedingly important in its consequences to the defend- man might be proud to hold. It is important in its con- pequences to the defendant, because it takes away that character from him, and consigns him to a felon’s @oom. The charge in this case is not for the com- the actual motive of the guilty party. that on which you must find your Fordict is the metive which prompted the prisoner towards maki: ‘the preparations w! it is proved he did make in his warehouse. I will read the statute to you, gentlemen, and will trouble you for your close attention whi am #0. The first section to which I refer is in relation tow! the offence is complete. It says that ‘ever, who shall wilfully set fire to, or burn in the ni; shop, warehouse, or other building, not delog the nabject ‘arson in the first degree, but adjoining to, or w: the curtilage of any inhabited dweiling house, go that such house shall be endangered b: ra firing, upon conviction be adjudged arson in the second degree.’ The allegation of the prosecation here is that had the offence been completed, the prisoner in this case ‘would be guilty of the the crime, a description of whicn Thave just read. Now, gentlemen, it is adusitted that Feat has not been committed, and I need advert te it no er. It is only alleged by the prosecution that an attempt has been made to commit it, and I shall now to you the section of the statute which has reference to attempts. It states peak! Rael son who shall attempt to commit an offence prohibited y law, and in such attempt shall do any act towards fe commission of such offenco, but shall fail in the per- {spars thereof, or shall be prevented or intercepted executing the same, upon conviction thereof, shall, in cases where no provision is made by law for the punish ‘ment of such attempt, be pnnished,”’ &. Thus a man who has @ design in his mind to commit a crime, does some act towards its perpetration, but fails in completion thereof, shall be deemed guilty of an attempt to commit such crime. These, gentlemen, are the statutes, and to these you must apply the facts of this case. You will permit me then, briefly to call your at- tention to these facts, and see if they make out the of. fence with which the prisoner is charged. We will com- mence first with the conduct of the youn r brother, Theodore A. Peverelly. It has been al by the de- Sence, that he was not in the store 147 Front street, on the night of the 6th of July. Of that you are to judge. Did he (3 to Williamsburg on that day and purchase three half barrels of turpentine and three half barrels ef camphene? Did he give a wrong name to the person who sold him these barrels? If you find that he did purchase them, what was his object? The act of the ee ig in ttself innocent, and only becomes guilty the motive was a bad’one. Why was a wrong name given? Was it in order to remove all suspicion, and pre- vent proof psoduced that Charles 4, Pererelly faa made the # You will judge of this. in; between four and five o’clock in the afternoon of the same day, Carns, a carman, is called epee by that same boy, the younger Peverelly, and is acked to eet, slip and get six barrels,.and take to the store 147 Front street. Young Peverelly into the cart; they go to Peck slip, take away the and on the ‘the carman asks what is in them. Theodore answers he does not know. Now if this statement was false, what motive had he in the conceal- ment? The barrels were taken to Front street, and Carns swears that they were rolled into the store. Now what Decame of those barrels?’ Were they unheaded? Were their contents scattered around by the defendant and his brother? and, if so, what was their motive? Was it aninnocent one? Is it consistent with innocence that cotton should thug de left about the building, saturated with cam) and Aprpentinet If so, orif yon haveany yeasonable doubt on this poiut, you must give that doubt im favor of the prisoner. It appeared ftom the evidence, that at aquarter before 7 o'clock, the Pevorellys left their store with the intention of going home to Astoria, on Long Island. What brought them back, and wha! ught them ack af 32 0 that n ht? Was it with fatention in cireage hm Nes A Ta it around, and saturate it with tur- phene? Liaw up the box on the Did they stuff th which was so ee with & wit ve ‘Did they do so? and, if they did, was it with an intention? Why’ was cetton stuffed round the front door. and why was cotton piled up against the windows on the fourth story as high asa man couli reach? Was this done to hide the light, or to shut out the heat inthe month of July? If all ‘these acts are consistent with the defendant's innocence, you should then acquit him. Another t for you to consider, tlemen, is, was this store actually in the same situs- ‘as that deseribed by the witnesses? Have you any doubt of this? If you have none, with what intent was it done? andif witli wicked intent, who did it? Who, from. their situation, were likely to do it? It you have any doubt that these Rot the parties, give them the benefit of that doubt . Dees the personal condition of the. boy Jead you to believe that he was there? White and Baker both state that his feet were saturated with cam- phene or turpentine. What was he doing with the cam- phene? Had he been assisting his brother? Had these Overalls and choes whieh were found near the office been used by Charles A. Peverelly in making his preparations? : isoners were If s0, then all these facts point to one conclusion, to wit, that the 8 were committing acts preparatory to fir- ing the stere, and you will be bound, according to the law, to find them guilty. If you believe that they made these preparations, then you will have to consider the nt ofthe defence, that'they do not constitute an. at- empt to commit arson within the meaning of the sta- tute. Now, what is the law? It says that every person who shall attempt to commit an ollence prohibited by the counsel for the defence and the District Attorney | questions put to the prisoner, as prescribed by law:— turpitude. It is q crime against which the community | relative to the charge here preferred. ant, Charles A. Peverelly—a man who, up tothe com- | $8 of my own door, T mission of the offence, has borne a character which any | see Sheehan’s club raised aj parently to strike Collis on Taw, and in such attempt shall do any act towards the commission of stich offence, but shall fail in the perpe- tration thereof, or shall be prevented or intercepted in executing the same, shall be deemed guilty of the offence of ttempt. Now, was camphene placed in the cellar. cS wee eplenabed Gotiomessitine’ shout shia buildiog, with an intent to destroy it? If so, a1 thas been done towards the perpetration of the offence. This is not only sound law, but sound common sense. It has also been contended for the defence that ‘the defendant eannot be convicted under this indictment, because there were no dwelling houses ‘‘ adjoining ”’ within the meaning of tie statute. On the first blush, it appeared difficult to get over this, but after a careful eqamination of the statnte, I find that there is really but little in it. Listen again to what the law says—any person who shall wilfally set fire to or burn in the night time; any shop, warehouse, or other building, not being the subject of arson in the \ first degree, but ‘adjoining fo any inhabited dwelling house, so that such house shall be endangeced, shall be adjudged guilty, &c. The statute says so that such house shall be ¢ndangered, meaning, therefore, by the word adjoining, so near that it would be endangared by the firing, “The point then for your consileration is, were these houses on Depeyster street, or Maiden lane, 80 near, or adjoining, as to be endangere! by the firing of the store 147 Front street! If you find they were, then within this indictment the defendant is guilty. There are some points on which I have been asked to charge the jury, by the counsel for the defence. ‘The first is, that in order to constitute an at tempt to commit arson, a light must be prepared with intent to set fire to the combustible materials which have been previously arranged in order. In regucd to thie 1 woul say, thay if you find that a series of overt acts were committed, with intent to fire the warehouse, it is sufficient to bring the ease within the indictment. To the third and fourth points on which I am requested to charge, the same remarks are applicable. On the fifth point, which siates that unless the jury are satisfied that the defendant applied the flame to the building, or to the combustible materials, he is not guilty, I refuse to charge the jury. The sixth point, which states that the evidence must show that the attempt to Gre the build- img was in the night time, is correct. The jury must be ‘satisfied of this, On the three Temaining pointe I’ decline to charge the jury Another view has been by the defence with much ability. It has been stated that the defendant hal time for repentance, or before the completion of the crime might have repented, But did he repent? If he was en- gaged in carrying out this crime, was it penitence which ipted him to stay his hand? If so, he is entitled to an acquittal. If you are sativfied that an Almighty Power exercised ité influence on his conselence and stay- ed his hand, you will acquit him. Butif, on the other hand, you aro satisfied that he was" intercepted in the crime by the officers of the law, then plea of penitence cannot protect him. There is one other point for your eon sideration. In this class of cases it is all-important to et at the motive. In order to show a motive here he District Attorney bas introduced evidence to prove that a large quantity of sugar stored with the defendant was missing on the 6th of July, and has never been ac- counted for. You muat look at this evidence and see whether this property had beéu surreptiously removed, and its value embezaled. If you are satistied on this point, then there ise strong and controlling act for the commission of the erime with which the prisoner is charged. Evidence has been produced on the part of the defendant to establish bia good character. Now, where doubt, chimera, but # reasonable doubt, shadow over the clearness of a ease, then good character steps in. But if the testimony tends conalonroyy to one result, then good character is of ao avail. With these remarka, gentlemen, 1 leave the case in your hands. * You will give it every consideration that its importance: requires; for itis a solemn enee— solemn in iis consequences, not only to the prisoner, but to the whole community. the jury retire! about 2P.

EXAMINATION OF JOHN THE MANSLAUGHTER Yesterday, Coroner Hilton proceeded to the City Prison and examined John B.

Holmes. bein examined be on the annexed charge, and being informed that he was at liberty to answer, or not, all or any questions put to him, states as follows, viz. — Question. What is your name?

I then wen into Moloney’s to ask the origin of the row. think we re there about twenty minutes. Ther were others with me. We camo out, and were talkin: about the matter when I heard steps coming down th: street, [looked up, and saw aa they passed the ga lamp that they were the two policemen. Ithen said ty my friepd, ‘you bad better go home, as itis evident these two men want to kick up a row with us.” I hal just time to say “good night,” when I heard Sheohan’s voice say, ‘‘There’s Holmes; let us take or attack him.”? Tdid not think that they would dare do such a thing until they rushed at me, saying, “You are our man,” or something like it. I replied, ‘Yon shan’t arrest me; Thave done nothing wrong; if Ihave, you know who I am, and where to find me,’’ at the same time backing on the street towards my own house. While so doing I said to them, “You shan’t deprive me of my liberty,” still trying to keep them off with my hands. Sheehan said, “By God, you wili come,” or, “By God we will’ have you,” Gourley saying, “We will take care of you for the election, you damn son of @ bitch.” “Sheehan was in front, but to my left, and struck me a blow with his club upon my left shoulder; this made me reel up the street a pace or two; Gourley made a punch or thrust at me with his club; I think it was at my face, but it struck me on my chest, imme- diately under my throat; I persisted in saying, “I would not Fo—that I was a freeman, and not to be deprived of ny liberty by drunken polie¢men;” Gourley said, ‘By C—t you will, dead or alive,” at the same time raising himsdlt up with all his fore, and striking mea heavy blow on the head; this is the blow that cut my head; Gourley was standing opposite me at the time; Sheehan was standing to the left of me; on receiving this blow a sudden thought passed through my. brain, but it now seems to me like a dream; that I thought I was killed, and as quickly thought to myself that he should go with me; {don’t recollect anything after this, until I found myself in my own room; I don’t know whether I stabbed him or not; my*mind was in a confused state; I don’t know what occurred after the second thought: I am certain I did not stab any one before I received the blow on the head.

Royal Houghton against Peler C, Adams.—Where an exchange broker purchases bank notes of another State at the ordinary discount of uncurrent money, and it turns out thatthe bank, without either party at the time knowing the fact, had actually stopped payment the same day, but before the purchase was made, in such | case the law raises an implied promise, and will enforce its performance, to refund the amount paid and taken under a mutual mistake. Broken bank notes, by com- mon understanding, are a different commodity from un- current money. ‘Smith Ely against George Cook, dic.—An assignment made by a debtor for the equal benefit of all his creditors is not void merely because it provides that after payment in full, ‘‘the surplus shall be returned to the debtor.” If the debtor, however, were, and knew himself to be, perfectly solvent at the time, and the object in view was not so much to pay his creditors as to. protect himsel! from prompt sales, euch an assignment might fairly be considered as ‘a transfer made for the use of the pacty making the same,” and, therefore, as azainst crelitors, fraudulent and void. a Tacoh Ta We .

It'is still the same suit. An un- interrupted or continued absence of a witness from the time of taking the testimony conditionally to the time of trial, is not necessary.

THE PUTNAM DIVORCE CASE. | Nov. 13.—Mary Ann Putnam, Appellant, vs. Theodore B. Putnam, Respondent.—A suit for divorce in this ease, on the ground of infidelity, was tried before Judge Roose: velt in April, 1852. The complaint set forth the circum- stances of the charge, anticipating and replying to the defence of condonation, and seeking an orler‘for the custody of Theodore Alburtis Putnam, the only living child of the marriage, who was born on the 14th of May, 1844, The defendant on trial denied infidelity, and set up condonation. The plaintiff’ put in a special reply. The jury, under the charge of Judge Roosevelt, found the defendant not proven guilty of adultery to their sai faction, but guilty of gross impropriety,towards his wife and child; and further certified—'‘We recommend to the Court to ‘order the child to remain itt custody of his her.” The plaintiff took a bill of exceptions on the ng points:—That the charge gave undue force to the plaintii’s doubt whether she could: establish the guilt of the defendant by proof — which would satis & court and jury, and that the ide favor of character of the particeps, was not admissib! tit was error to inform the jury that the defendant had den! bis guilt on ogth, anil that a new trial should be awar. unless the Court will, upon the pleadings and proofs hhey stand, and t ict, decree to the plaintif a sep- ‘the defendant, ‘tn dpplst,{rith the custody of her chili. submits that ‘evid was given of uid" IuDReigial, character of the lady with whom the adultery wa charged.

As we anticipated, there was better feeling in Wall atreet to-day, and better prices were realized for every stock operated in on the lst. The improvement was universal at the first board, and was continued to the close, Illinois Central Bonds advanced 1\ per cent; New York Central Railroad Bonds, {; Canton Company, 34; Nicaragua Transit, 144; New York Central Railroad, 34; Hudson Railroad, 1; Cleveland and Toledo Railroad, Xj Erie Railroad, {; Harlem, 14; Reading Railroa, 1%. At the second board, Ulincis Central Bonds went up 34 per cent; Virginia 6’s, 14; Nicaragua Transit, 4 Cumberland Coal, %; Erie Railroad, ; Harlem, Norwich and Worcester, 3; Reading Railroad, 34; New York Central Railroad, 34. There were sales of Erie this afternoon st 30 per cent, buyer ninety days. A good many shorts were among the buyers to- day, and the market closed firm at our quotations. The sober second thought is evidently returning, and as soon as it gets well hold of the public mind, we shallsee a different state of things in Wall street. As an evidence of the absurdity of the recent panic, it is only necessary to point to the stock of the Nicaragua Transit Company, of the Harlem Railroad Company, Illinois Central Bonds; in fact, to any stock on the list. Most of them are now three per cent above the lowest point touched three days since; and we have no doubt that many who sold at the recent reduced rates have since been buyers at the ad- vance. It is impossible to account satisfactorily for these sudden and extreme fluctuations. We wonder that the “Soulé affair’ did not create a panic in the stock market, If Florence and Keyport had fallen off * —The defendent gave his endorse- per cent in consequence of Mr. Soulé having been re- i fused admittance into France, we should not have been much surprised After the adjournment of the board, the following sale of bonds and stocks were mare at auction by A.

There was quite an active demand for breadstufls to- | day, for shipment to Europe, on orders received by the steamship Atlantic. Between five and ten thousand barrels of flour were purchased to-day on foreign ac count. The demand is likely to be large for all kinds of grain, Oats have already been sold in large quantities for export to London, and every bushel of Indian corn we have to spare will find 9 market abroad, at high prices, This is but the beginning of this movement, We have a large «urj! is of breadstulfs of all sorts, not- withstanding the drought, and high prices will bring it out.

The discount line cannot be much further reduced, and the probability is that there will not be apy increase fora time. In November, last year, the loans run down pretty low, but rum up pretty fast from that time to about the first week in March. They are now lower than we have before reported for more than a year, and the contraction outside the banks | has been even greater than inside. We have never knows%s more rapid liquidation than has been going on during the past three months, and it is the general re- mark among the mercantile classes, that this month— | November—will use up all their heavy payments, and that | in the month of December there will be an easier time for | | | them than they have known for years. We look for an easy money market before the lapse of many weeks, from the absence of a demand, caused by the limited com- mercial movements of the day. Our advices from Europe are, ina financial point of view, much more favorable | than those previously received. The outside rate of in- | terest in London was four and ahalf per cent, and it was expected that the Bank of England would soon announce a reduction unless an advagce in breadstuffs should pre- vent. We shall have another California arrival in a day | or two. The Northern Light, from, San Juan, will soon | be along with another million or so of gol, and as soon as the banks show specie on hand to the amount of eleven millions, there need be no apprehen- sions of a much further contraction. The London Econo- mist of the 28th ult. says that “the large increase of | bullion—£501,733—in the bank, the first for some months, is the turning point of the accounts, and it is expected that the next week will show a still larger in- crease.” We shall have the next weekly Bank of Eng- land statement by the Cunard steamer, nearly due at | this port, and if the anticipations relative to the increase of bullion are realized, we shall have a let up here at once. ‘The earnings of the Macon and Westera Railroad Com- pany for October, 1854, were as follows:— $8,094 74 + 1,050 04 » 14,031 60 Corresponding month last year see $4,141 09 Decrease... or 15 per cent.

The conclusion arrived at upon reading the above let- ter is that the present course of the banks and the Audi- tor of Indiana is intended to depreciate their notes to the lowest practicable point of depression. If Mr. Auditor Dunn’s notions are to be carried out, the holders of small sums of these bank notes have but little chance of getting their money, aud they will be forced to sell them for anything they can get. } Stock care oren, Nov. 13, 1854. $7000 Virginia.,.6’s 91% 150N ¥ Cen RR..030 8236 1000 N Carolina..6’s 91 50 do.....090 823 500 Cal 7's. 70 3000 Erie Ist Mt Bds 1000 Erie Income Bs 4000 11 C RR Bds 63 3000 C & R IRR Bas 2000 Erie C Bds ‘71 10 Hanover Bank,. 10 Metropol Kank, . lo 12 ite 113g 100 dow... 100 Reading Rit .c 00 50 do. -¢ 69 160 do a3 69) 100 do. 930 69 830 69: 100 do + b60 88 50 Penn Coal Cs . c 150 Cumb Coal Co «3 50 63 do.,......€ 250 Gold Hill Mine.. 500 doe. 1S SECOND $6000 Virginia.... 6’s 93 5000 11 C RR Bds,.. 67 foooo do. +860 67 ilities, | 37 City. 130 Country.

It points to the fact that the only source of supply, to any extent, is on this side of the Atlantic. With our rail- road communication with the West, we can calculate upon large receipts from the interior at all seasons, and it is our opinion that there will before the lapse‘of many weeks be an excitement in our markets for breadstults, equal to anything we have known for years. We pub lished an article yesterday from the London Times in relation to the supply of breadstufls in Great Britain, and the conclusions are similar to those arrived at by the writer in the Mark Lane Ezpress:— In locking back at What has occurred during the two mouths, t onviction that we have been spar. most fearful vi ation must foree itself upon the miu of all who are pable of reflectio: Had the harvest proved less bown vthing could have suved this cow a OM stocks: so completely worked up in all parts of th would have been impossible to supple any quarter, exc Happily we been blessed with abundant crops, ans, taking the No: of Europe generally, the yield of the harvest may be de- Pedave creel.
