DELAPIELD CONTINUED. @ Could you form any idea about how often in the eourse ofa year you beard Mr. Parish utter the words, Oh, dear?” A. M would be all guesswork. Q. Do you ‘@biok that you beard them in every year from 1850 to ‘WOb4 mclusive? A. 1 think I did. Q Is it your best veeollection that you beard him utter them a number of ‘tres in cash of these years? A. That is my best recol- Motion. Q. Besides the inarticulate sound mentioned by (yeu to-day, and the sound ‘‘nyeh’”’ which you mentioned @m your direct examination, did be utter in your hearing ‘amy other inarticulate sounds? A. Yes, he did. Q ‘Waease to describe each of them which you recollect. A. Ho not not know how to describe inarticulate sounds; if ime was irritated, there would be sounds of some kind, de- meting irritation; if he was in pain be would mean a great deal and groan. Q. Besides moan- and in pain, and the two inarticu- dase sounds: referred te, did he utter any otber sounds? A. There were various sounds, at different wmes, which Le eee apd which left no impression on my Q. Do you mean to say that, besides the moaning and and the two inarticulate sounds last before . Parish uttered in your hearing no sound now, from recollection, give aby account or ? A, There were other sounds if I could If I would say something he would be in be would shake his duger #¢ me and make a ‘at me inquiringly, but I do not know how w Q. Was that sound which = ave just mentioned oe ag of ve hee baditual, occasional. e occasion ‘t . ye notice that this same sound was oc- or was the sound to which bave last referred diferent at diferent times? ‘Well, 1 attached not much importance to these wounds; it was by the expression and manner accompany- ‘these sounds that | judged of his meaning; as far as J reoollect the sound inquired of was always the same. Q. @euid you by detbers, or qihee sinaas laen, my omeey aay ade, even proximately, of this soun . Teould not. Q. ‘You have now spoken of three different inarticulate sounds uttered by Mr. Parish, besides moaning and groaning: do you remember ever hearing him utter any @ther alter his stlack? A. I cannot, at moment, re- member any otber. Q. You have mentioned the gesture efpodding and shaking the head, can you state any other or gestures tbat Mr. Parish used after his attack? ‘eo, state all of them, giving of each the best descrip- fion in your power. A. He held his hand with the ‘closed, making a hollow, moving,it,"looking at it ‘aa & he meant something, holding it up towards his face, im front of bis breast and partly to the individual was talking to, fhe individual who was talking to him, as if to @all attention; there was another gesture—he often fingers in bis gouth, pressed upon the lower back of the hand uj ‘ds. I can’t cal! to mind just now. 1 t think of more if a had cannot call amy others to mind; if I should stay afternoon I could not. Q. Did any sound accompany first of these gestures described by you? A. Some- rai sound. Q. Do.you mean that sound ‘could not imitate? A. No, Ido not attach tinct idea to this guttural sound at this moment; hitue noise in the throat. Q. Did any sound y that second gesture? A. No sound accom- . Were these two gestures habitual with ing his iliness? A. They were habitual years of his illness. Q. Did attending Dir.

Q You have spoken on your direct exaapination of Mr. Parish’s @bronc disease’ what was bis chronic disease? A. I don’t remember what you refer vo; the whole state in ‘which be was left by bis first attask was chronic, if that bat you refer to. Q. Did you judge, while attending Parish, that the perves, or any apd which of them @vmmected with or giving motions w the organs of speech, ‘were affected by that chronic disease’ A. All the organs @onnected with speecs were opiginally allected by the clic attack, and so continued throughout the chronic e. Q. Please to describe in what and bat extent, in your judgment, organs @f them, were affected by the aspoplectic A. The whole subject is ap abstruse and difficult ‘and 1 would be obliged to refer to authors to ausw: . @ When you beard Mr. Parish say “Oh, ,”’ did he utter it ouly once or utter it repeatedly and fer some continuance of time? A. Two or three times ‘upon each occasion. 1. Do you mean two or three times quccessively and continuously? A. 1 so mean. @ ‘When be uttered the sound, “‘nyeh,”’ did he utter re pentediy and successively, the same way, a number of fames? A. He did so, as a general rule, Q. You have ep of all the organs ol speech as being alfected: to state what were ibe organs of speech, each in detail and stating the way in Fou judged it to be affected py his apopiectic the 4 it attack? A. I cannot now recollect enough of my amatomy and physiciogy to go into this detail. at Z aD wh organe ef epve fedeed such organ or or- ‘Windpipe, ite upper called the glottis; certain cartilages, cords and ‘Membranes in the upper part, are probably the principal feat of the voice, and its modulations are produced by the fongve, the teeth, the lips, aud the mouth generally; al! parts are supplied with nerves coming from the and this is point of minate anatomy; Ido not remember, what nerves supply these various parts; wey an ‘rom the brain, and when —— atlected we the part of the brain whence they are derived is some way implicated in the disease. Q. Do you mean that you judged those nerves to be affected by the attack im Mr. Parish’s case’ A. I now so but the question being of no importance in a practi- ea) point of view, 1 did not enter into such details of anatomy and phyviology at the time. Q. Which one of the organs of speceh which you bave named, if any, did you ‘@mcover, or judge to be, in whole or in part paralyzed’ A. Netbing in such cases can be discovered in the parte themecives. Q Then why did you say that all the organs of epeech were affected by the apoplectic attack? the simple reason that he could not speak. Q. Did you ever perceive that bis hemiplegia or chrouic discace eflected any other part of bis body except simply the wight leg and the right arm, and that he did not speak? A. The right side of the tace was slightly affected, lea ‘Wan usual, but thik almost entirely diva) im the @ourse of bis recovery. Q. About what ume did this ‘lection of the face entirely disappear? A.

A. The muscles of that of the face looked slightly fallen, and those of the @ther ride sightly drawn, but the whole of it was slight. Did these appearances of the face wholly disappear ‘within \be firet six months after the attack? A, Never in the absolute sense, but so taat it required care- fal examination to discover it, and it was more discovera- the slight escape of saliva from one corner of the showing a wantof power there, than by any @ther circumstance.

At Masthope, on ths line of the railway, 117 miles from New York city, Mr. Cbas. B. King has just erected a new and fine hotel. The house stands on the banks of the Delaware river, and will be found an agree- able summer retreat. Newport is a rice place to go to mow, and Hazard’s Fillmore House will be found a good place to hang up one’s bat in, Downing’s is also an excelent house. ‘A litle nearer home is Cliftwood, opposite Keyport, N. J., where Mir. Albert Porter has just opened a fine new hotel, with everything nice and comfortable about it. It is on the shore of Raritan Bay, and is surrounded by pleagant groves and capital drives. A trip to Coney Island is both pleasant and economical. The steamboat Norwalk leaves pier No, 3.

Glen Cove is one of the prettiest spots about New York, and is full of pleasant villas, inhabited by pleagant people. At Sea Side, 1. I., the Bath Hotel will be open on the 20th instant. This house bas everything about it to make visiters comfortable. At South Amboy, New Jersey, where they have a splendid water view and capital fishing, he Bay Hill Cottage is now open.

Four miles east of that village you will ind the Lake Mohegan House, a p'easant place vo board in the summer. Still farther up, and on the other side of the river, is the pleasant town of Kingston, under shadow of the Kaatskills, where Mr. Charles Stephens has opened the American Hotel, and will be happy to entertain visiters. At Port Washington, Shrewsbury, N. J., the Pavilion Hotel will be found swept and garnished, ready for the rush of summer boarders. The floating population of Shrewsbury like the Pavilion.

There are two periods in a man’s life when his relji- gion, or the feeling for the religion he was educated in, fret discloses itseli—the first, when he marries for life the second, when on his deathbed = It is admitte¢—and nowhere denied—that when Lieutenant Fremont mar- ried Miss Benton, Father Van Horseigh, of Memingico, a Roman Catholic priest, of character and high stan in bis church there, married them. Nobody compelled Mr. Fremont thus to go to a Roman Catholic priest. He went there of his own free will and choise. True, itis said, that in consequence of the social intluence of Senator Ben- top, iu Washington, no other than a Roman Catholic priest in Washington would marry the runaway pair; but it is not prover, and itis not true, or if true, i, does not vi- Ubse the fact that a Roman,Catbolic priest cannot under the ordinances and councils of bis church unite parties ip “the boly sacrament of matrimony,” unless one of them, at least, progesses to be of that church, To understand the laws. apd the councils, and the toms of the Reanish church, we must take our reader: little ways twto the theology of that church. Marrkge is with ibe Roman Catholics a sacrament. The Protestants Lave bit two sacraments; the Roman Catholics have seven, and among them is matrimony. Hence, a Roman Catbolic priest would no more adminis ter the sacrament of matrimony to a party not of bis church, than be would the Lord’s Supper, or confirma tion, oF baptism, for matrimony is in the Romish Church just as much a@ sacrament as tbe Lord's Supper. The highest written authority of the Romish Cbarch is the femous Council of Trent, and there it is deereed:— DECREB. 3a. Whosoever shall say that sacraments of the new law were not all instituied by Jesus Christ our Lord or that they are more or lest in number than seven: that is to say, bap- tism, confirmation, the Lord's Supper, penance, extreme ung- tion, orgers, and matrimony; or bat any one of these seven is not trufy and properly a sscrament, jet him be accursed. Marriage among most Protestants—not ail, howe: civil contract, but in the Romish Church it ia an ation, to be taken only before priests—it i a sacra- ment. The Romish Church is rigid, and stricter in its rule of marriage than apy other religious denomination. Marriage in that church is an indissolubie tie, and never to be loosed even by the civil law of divorce. The mar- riage of heretics by a priest is a crime, except under some special Papal eispensation—just as much of a crime as it would be to administer the Lord’s Supper to here- tics. When Colonel Fremont, therefore, voluntarily went before Father Van Horseigh, and asked him, as a Priest of Rome, to marry bym to a Protestant woman, he must have been, or pretended to be, a Roman Catho- lic, and he must have promised to bring up the offspring, if any, in the Romish Church, That promise Col. Fre- mont fulfilled in an adopted daughter, now a growp wo- man, for he educated her in the convent on the heights of Georgetown, D.C, and he ‘cannot deny, or authorize any one to depy the fact. The sacramental obligations of the marriage have been fulfilled till a late period; and if they are not fulfilled now, rt ts because of late a change bas taken place in Col.

At every subsequent stage of the con- troversy, in which they found themselves embarrassed by our diplomacy, they repeated the same expedient ot a warlike demonstration on our borders. Persisting in the refusal to comply with our conditions of adjustment, they attempted to Pighien our government trom its purpose by charging rgans with every sort of menace. At first, we were distinctly told that the dismissal of Cramp ton would provoke instant and severe reprival; and to aggravate the terrors of this mysterious threat, their writers indulged a ferocious fancy in depicti the sack of our cities and the ravage of our coast. In end they backed down wo the pésition that the disgrace of their Mivister would be retaliated by the dismissal of ours; and they rested upon the gentle intimidation of a suspen- sion of amicable intercourse with the American govern- ment. Jn no way alarmed by the minacious attitude of the Bri- Usb government, our President beld on to his original po- sition, and our inexorable Secretary repeated his de- mands with irresistible persistency of purpose. Recipro- cating the friendly protestations of the English Ministry in the blandest and sweetest phraseology, and demolish- ing their arguments with a sort of an tic operation of logic, Mr. , at every turn of the correspondence, would remorselessly repeat the demand for the recall of Crampton. Wearied at last with the shuffling and equivo- cation of his adverearies, be suffered the blow to fall upon their heads, but with so geatle a descent, and with such an abundance of sriend!y profession, that, however in- dignant in their hearts, they had no recourse but to pocket the affront, and behave like good-natured gentle- men, If any American citizen wants an adequate tion of the power and prestige of his count-y, let him contrast the present meek and eubmissive demeanor of Palmerston with the insolence and violence of the same Palmereton in the famous controveray about McLeod and the Caroline. And we may add, if any American citizen is disposed to cower under the menaces of a British Minia- try, let bim recollect the humiliation to which the timidity of Webster exposed us, and say if the issue of this recent dispute does not justify the firmness and spirit of the pre- sent administration. For it is undoubtedly due to the staunch policy of Pre- sident Pierce, so ably and skilfully carried out by Mr. Marcy, that the country escaped the hazard of war with Great Britain, or the more deplorable native of an infamous accommodation, The lish 'y never meant to submit to the dismissal of Mr. Crampton. They were pot reluctant to have a brush with the United States. They had come into power as a war administration, and foresaw defeat on the return of peace. In the straggle with Russia they did rot justify the coniidence of country. Anxious to redeem their character, and having within their grasp ali the resources of an aggressive war, they would not have shrunk from an encounter witb this count if they had been supported by the people of Great Britain. Any “under on the part of our govern- ment would haye given them that support. Fortunately, the foreign relations of the country were under the con- trol of a man who never commits blunders. With equal sagacity in the conception of a policy, andekil! in its execu- ton, Mr. Marcy determined in the beginning and succeed- ed in the end, in so conducting the controversy as to op- pose the British people against the British government. Apd bere was the struggle between bim and the Ear! of Clarendon—the one striving to rouse the resentment of the Britirh nation re the pretensions of the Ameri- can government, and the former laboring to persuade the British people of the justice ard mods ration of the American demands. Mr. Marcy triumphed. The British mipistry were compelled by the popular voice of the country to retreai from their high pasition, and to acqui- esce in the disgrace of @ subordinate whose acts they had assumed and whose conduct they undertook to justify. When we reflect upon the sensitive pride of so powerful a nation as Great Britain and their extreme jealousy of this country, we may appreciate the #k1!] which avoided touch- ing their susceptibilities im se delicate and complicated a controversy. The Times, which of a!) the Englich journals has threat- ened the severest retaliation for the dingrace of Crampton, abd WhICD Des een tue most persistent in maintaing bis ipnocence, is the first to betray bim and to cougratulate the ministry on their pacitic policy. Since it is avowed that Crampton’s dismizsal will not be avenged, the Times accuses him <a, and even upbraids the gov- erpment for retaining bim in office, To sustain the min- istry and ecothe the national pride, it is pecessary to con- Vict him of incapacity, and to justify his dismissal.

We published, a few days wince, the statement of the recovery of the Express Company’s safe which went down on board the steamer Atlantic, on her upward trip from here, during the night of the 1%h—or rather morn- ing of the 20th—Augest, 1852. That statement was em- bellished, or rather cbscared, by some fancifui descrip. hich we copied from a Western paper. and al) of ch, it hardly necessary to say, wae manufactured ob shore by & writer sitting in dry boots. The facts, as wo learn them from the gentlemen of the Express Company, are as follows:—The diver made his Gret descent 60 a8 to strike the hull of the wreck too far He was, in response to his signal, drawn up, abd again descended, this ime lanc!ffg upon the extreme after part of the wreck. In this way he came to the sur face and was lowered down eleven times, wher he landed near the stateroom in which was deposited the treasure sought. The express messenger, Mr. Jobn Morphy, on that trip oceupied what was known as the brila! cham. ber—a statercom on the hurricane deck, just aba the pilot bowse. Had the messenger been below with bis charge, it would not have beep practicable to rescue the eh A without raising the hull entire. The diver on nis eleventh descent found the safe, or trom box, euch as are carried by all the messengers, and making fast to it, the long sought treasure was drawn w the surface.

Samds, deceased, and Exports of Precious and Lsbor, {Correspondence of the London Times.' dog March We have been for some time without mails from Eng- My late letters have dwelt upon the increased of gold by the several escorts, and, altho rease of production, there can be no doubt that the production has greatly increased on all the gold fields. The avei weekly supply of the first twelve weeks of the year 1855 was 30, ounces; the average of the firat twelve weeks of the present year has been 66,256 ounces. ‘The ‘increase in the monthly averages during the pre- sent year is as follows:— Weekly average of four weeks in January... Weekly average of four weeke in February. Weekly rege of four weeks in March . The escorts for the week before last, ing fortnightly escort from the Ovens, brought down 90,518 ounces; those fer the last week, without the Ovens escort, bronght down 61,910 ounces, the average of the two being 76,214. If the average of the last twelve weeks be morely maintained, our export of goid will be 2,924,788 ounces, value £11,699,152. But I have no doubt the production and exports will considerably exceod that amount. You wil) remember that in the early part of this year, judging from tne progressive merease in the quantity brought down, and from the determination of labor and capital towards the use of machinery in quartz crushing, I ven- tnred to predict that towards the middie of the year the averages would rise to 60,000 ounces per week. I now feel very certain that the average of the whole year will exceed that; that Victoria will export certainly not less than 3,000,000 of ounces; and I believe very confidently that the export of this year will approach, and, perhap3, reach 3,500,000 ounces. From the table which Isha! give presently it will be seen thatthe old gold#elds of Ballarat and Mount Alex. ander (Castlemaine), with Bendigo (Sandhurst), still ex- hibit increase, though they were reported to be pearly * worked put’? in 1! The newer goldtield of the Ovens (Beechworth) has exhibited a very steady increase, and ig, in @ great measure, remote from the influences which produce temporary fluctuation, to be noticed presently. ring the first six months of last year the weekly ave- rage painorngy of the Ovens, as indicated by the fort- nightly escort, did pot much exceed 3,000 ounces. The quantity increased during the last six months of the year, and the average of the whole year was brought up to 3,827 ounces. This year the averages hare rapidly in- creased, ag follows :—In January, 4,781 ounces; in Feb- ruary, 5,994 ounces; in March, 6,944 ounces. It has been said that the general increase is not all pro- duction; that part of it is owing to the fact that, while the price is low in Melbourne, stocks are kept back, and that when the price riser, as it has lately done, to 77s. 9d. per ounce, holders send down their stocks for’ sale, and part is owing to the fact that the price at Ballarat having been for a short time higher by some 15d. or 18d. per oudce than at Melbourne, some cuvning fellow took up gold from Melbourne by the e and sold it tothe banks ataprofit. Now, I have no doubt that the frst cause has been in operation for the last four or five weeks; and that it bas to some extent swollen the figures which the re- turns exbinit; the cause may have formed a smal) portion of the large supply of the week before last, but not of any other week, for the cause itself did not exist for as long as a fortnight, and, moreover, it has before existed and operated to some extent. Now, if we should tke the supply of the last two weeks as an average to be relied on, and from that predicted that the year’s pro- duction would be 4,000,000 ox., or £16,000,000, then, in- deed, it might be said that no allowance had been made for causes temporary apd accidental; but io anticipating that the year’s supply will certainly'be 2,000,000 0z., a3 I have stated, and perbaps approach, or even reach, 3,500,000 oz., I make ample allowance for causes of in’ ‘crease are merely temporary. And here let me observe that the causes of permanent increase are apparent, and are, moreover, ample to account for the steady increase in the average supply that has taken place, and to warrant an anticipation of further increase; 1 mean the application of machinery, mad the consequent co- of capital and labor in the pursuite of mining—causes which did not exist in the first or second years of our golden age, and are only now coming into operation partially and slowly, having had to encounter much prejudice, as all such expelionte have, besides all the dificultles in the way of applying what is new and untried.
