Objected to. Judge Strong thought Swift ought to te interrogated Py He is tubject bofore Gallegher was examined in regard fo it.

By the tistiSet Attorrey—Did be ever ask what had become of the ola butener? (Objected to, and objestion ustaiccd by the Court.) I met Eames af er the measure had passed, several imer, and said I bed not seen Gallagher, yet, or some- Vike that; at the first interview I had with Eames atter the mearure had passed I mentioned that I had not seen Gallagher, ani had a mind to go down and see him; at our interviews I gecerally introduced the subject; 1 rever aw Gallagher til he ‘paid me the $150; 1 give gher $10 back; I tock the balance home; | took the most ot it howe; 1 &aw Fames'two or three hours after I received tne morey; J think it was first 1m the s-reet; i said Gallagker was sound, gave him some monty; can’t rememter how much I gave him tbat day, can’t recollvct what was said; I hanced him $°4 or $40; Eames said, | think, be 6i¢ not expect it; it was long after the passage cfthe measure; ames asked for no explanation as to why Igave it him: come time after I sjuared up and eve Eames the baif—$i0; this was in my own house; jont recollect what was raid at thst time; no re-eipts passed; Lam not swe I told Eames how much | got; | don’t think I told Eames what share I was pre him; tbink | migtt have said I was giving him half, after this presecuticn Eames spoke to me a cut this mater; don’t think ] had any cenversaticn with Eames, except what!

Cress exan.ined—I bave known Fames for a number 0! bet sard been neighbors; I told Eames tke offer had cin wace; he never suid he would vote one way or the other, and ncver agreed to receive any sum of monoy for brs vete; there waé no proposition apd no agreement on the eutject; did not and do not now keow he voted. Daniel P. Barnard, nworn—Was an Alderman of the city ot Brookirn and a member of the A:fessmert Com- mittee when this matter was pending; I was present at meetirg of the ccmmittee when emes week er two before the committee was before the committee twice; a there were tut four members present; I do rot know in what posi- tion he stocd in regard to the question; did not know any thitg about his position unul the report was pre. sented. Croes-exemined—Alderman Fames ia a very silent mem- ber; he is rota cebating but a ving member. Charles C. Fowler, sworn- Iam au A‘derman, and was @ mewber of the As nt Committee when teis matter was pencing, Mr. Dames was presont a but one meetin; of the ccmmittce; I dd not know Alderman Eames’ posi- tion on this questitn; cid rot know, except from the re- port, what bis peaition was while pending be‘ore tho ccm i:tee; think J bad one covversation with him sub- sequent to the last meeting when he ine'ined in favor of the rrilrcad compuny, without giving any reason; 1 did not ask bim to state reasons; I was curious to know his pcrisicn from the fact of that being the only time dur- as year he bad attended a meeting of the committee, ticharo Galluzher, reeulie¢—I never authorized Swift to make any offer to Alderman Eames; I told him I would ive Swift what { received to tae the members from Williamsburg to see Atlan'ic avenue; don’t recolicct that I pamea apy sum to Swi gave him $150 atter tho meosrure was passed; can’t say how loug alter; I thiok I called onfwitt: he was out; he afterwards cailed on me, and I pid him the movey.

No evidence was adcuced cn the part of defence. Henry A. Moore, Esq., for the defence, submitted that there waa pot eullicient evidence to sustain the Indiet- ment, exd moved the Court to instruct the Jury to ren- dera verdict of not guilty. ‘The Ccurt refused to grant the motion, The ecrneci by agreement, then submitted the case withc ut argument. Inége Strong said there had been for about two years past @ etiong wopres-ion that many public officers, eape- cially in corporations, baa acted corruptly, and tl o ba. gislature bad pasted an act for the purpose uf preventi and punishing brivery. The J then read the provi. viens ot tbe statute, and recapitulated the evicence. He stated that the proposal referred to in the statute need not ve couched in cirect terms, that « bint from which a reas psble deouction could be drawn that the officer was to receive a valuabls Consideration for his influenee or vote was sufficient, The main question tox toe jury to consider was whether Swift, either on his own behaif or gent of Gallegher, had made an offer, either expressed implied, that secused should receive any portion of the morey in question. In either case the transaction would come witbin the provisions of the statute. If, bowsver, they thought there was no such tan din; ‘hey woold acqnit him. However improper the act o! the ceferd: nt may have been—and the act was extremey r—thia would not bring it within the provisions “ His Honor concluded by imprersing uy jury the importance cf the case to the pudlic, and to the ‘aceused, and added that in ell criminal cases they must pive him the terefit of any dubs they might have. ‘The jury 1¢ ined at 2 o'clock, ud not having given in their airdet when the Court adjourned, they wera or- Jered to present it this (Wedaeaday ) morn ug. {a mow in session daily, at No. 30 Broadway, to hear par. ties who ol North end to or favor the lines ‘eat rivers. ane ay.
