Tt was quite long, and before toe reading was completed & shout came up from the crowd, “The twenty minutes are over, let’s have him!’? A juror addressed them from the window sod sexed for more time, Kaignten was then subjected in person to a very rigid examination. His story was entirely consistent with tha: be had previously told; be bad no personal knowledge that Woods was aware of the murder or a receiver of counterfeit money, though he bad been assured #0 by Quarles, aod many minor fare confirmed it. His examination was nearly through, when ibe crowd once more became very impatient. The shouts of “hang him,” ‘nang them both,” “sime’s out,” ‘we'll wait no lovger,’’ etc., came up again and again, witha noise like @ te it. It was anexclupg scene. In the room, lighted up only by a single tim candle, the jurors, with anxious, troabled faces, as they were grouped around the rs, Metened to the shouts from without. The next momeat probably the crowd would rush in, and it seemed that no baman power could save the doomed men. Knighten grew palo as death at the immediate prospect of such an end, aud the swcat stood {n big drops upon hia forehead. Thegreat brawry form of Woods bai hitherto sat erect and appa- rently unmoved a little back of the grvap; but now the moscles of hia face began to twitch, and his jaws rosoand fell with desperate baste, as if be never again expected to enjoy the luxary of bis unfailing eeother—tobacco. In the intervals between the shouts, the balf suppressed, painful breathing of the party could be heard.

Many were were without coats, and with many others that garment was thrown open, Cee be belt around the waist with the :beath of the knife or the polished atee! of tho revolver that glittered in the light. The crowd was again aopealed to from the window, and more time was gained. O:ber witnesses wore oxen! Suflicient tistimony was introduced to leave the opinion that Woods is a bad man—a receiver of counterfoit money | and intimate companion of Bays ani Quarles. But there ‘was Do evidence that would or ought te convict him of any murder or any other crime before a court. Tae only thing Est beyond question was that he ha counterfeit money bis jon ~=He was brought up and closely tnterro gated, but no eatisfaction was obtained from him. His pleadings he sald he knew tha people wore very specious; ‘were enger for bis life; that they could take it if thoy choore, but he could die oaly once; be woald die an ‘onecent man, and the blood w be upon their own heads. He explained all the charges brought sgainat him with great ingenuity, but every man present was convil from bis verge br ing. ee Hy “ i ie s EB S a gE SPEFCH OF MAYOR ADAM3--THE FINAL.

Raval Intelligence, The Court of Inquiry convened at the Navy Yard, New York, to inquire into the particulars of the accident tothe steam frigate Mizsissippi, on the 23d July, and the damage sustained by the ship, after mature deliberatien, reports the following as the facts ascoriained by them — The moorings at the Navy Yard had boon taken up some time ago for repairs, and were relaid about the m! dle of June last ; that the Mississippi was secured to these moor. ings early last month, and on the 23d of the same month a ttrobg equal! from the northoast, with a very strong spring tide together, struck the frigete on her starboard side, that the r combined force acting oo the great lengta of hor broadside caused hor to drag he Dow moorings, to carry ‘away the stern post, and to drifion the gas nouse dock near the yard, notwithstanding the starboard anchor was a Jet go by the com wandicg officer the moment perceived her moorings wonld not bring ber up before sbe struck the wharf—tbat this was the fret heavy sirain that had been bronght on the mooringy smce they were relaid, and that on ‘weighing them two or three days ago the northeasterly axchor was found to bave been fuled, which fully accounts for the dragging. The exteut of dam. age was the lore of the stern boat davit, taree iron guard braces, one rmall iron knee, about one fourth of the port wator wheel with tho two outbonnd osntres, and cleren flouts, the estimated value of waicb is $4,800.

OOURT OF COMMON FLEAS. Before Hon. Judge Ingrabam. AvGvser 8.—The Mayor, Aldermen and Commonalty of the City of New York, against Daniel D. Conover and others — ‘The argument on the tertimony taken before the referee, Honry Hilton, Kaq., was commenced on Saturday. Mr. Sickles, in opening the argament, said this was a proceeding to punish » party for violating a process of this Court, and comes before it on an order to show cause and certain affidavits, to which counsel specially referred. He anid that the motoriety of the case and the interests in- volved gave unusual gravity to the proceeding, and culled for the application of those rules of law intended to sustain the dignity of courte, Conover was duly served ‘with a copy of the injanction and the complaint aud affi- davits on which it was issued, It was served on him ina public tribunal, where the subject matter of it attracted his sole attention, and that of bis lawyers and friends. He violated it instanuy by himseif, his professional agents, and by ibe officers of the law whom he employed to do acts in open of the lat He did so wilfully and syste atically. He and his attorneys wore aware that it was about to issue, and that it was issued be’ore it wan served. He had it in ample season to avold the violation of it; and when preof of that {act was brought before the court, he proceeded systematically to swear out of it. He ‘ard his associates got alara ed at their temerity, and when brought up to answer for this quasi criminal act, they at- tempted to screen ihemm Ives from the consequences. Hoe thought they could demonstrate by the testimony in the caso that he interfered with these books and papers manu. ally. and by bis agents ip his own preeence, and that of his legal advisers, by removing them from the custody they were in, and took possession and ox¢rolsed actual conto) of the cilice, by expelling the Deputy Street Commissioner from the office, preventing him from touching the books ard papers which he himself was rsstrained by the in- junction from exercising any control over, Mr. Sickles then made the feliowing poiu's:— I. On the motion to P sage for comtempt in disobeying and injunction when the disobedience is proven, no ques tion Is before the Coart except whether the Coart had juris diction of such # ev't and to issue tpjuctions. (Sturtevant vs. The People, Kervan Passmore William. son's cage, reporied in Philade'pria Law Journal.) Il. The attempt to deny timely service of the injunction is mere evasion, taking the facts which ocourred accord- {ng to any statement which Conover has made of them or apy construction which Conover has aitempted to put upon them. 1. Itia the every day practice of courts in punirhing digobedience to injunctions to set aside pretences of this kind. See cases cited in opinion on tae Stut tempt case in the Court of Appeals, pp. 245, 293. 2. The pretence of er ts that the lojunction was served after hie law ageut Brewer and constable Fy ripgtop bad left the oo art room with the process Assu ing this to be true Conover was promovent of the ceedings on which ‘he search warran. was issued; he employed those two persons t do the ac 8 inhibited by the {nj :netion, and congequently on receiving the injancion, he wus bound at once to recall bis iuetructions to whom. Io stead of 20 doing, he by his counsel Mr. Field, steadily persisted in urging Judge l’cabody to rapid and coutinued progress; he permitted bis constable to bring cue parcel ef papers before the Judge and to go again to the office anc bring another parcol. In this matter the maxim qui Sacit por livm facit per se murt be applied. The acts of ‘Mr. Fiela sre the act of Mr. Couover, especially as they were dono in bis presence. 3. The proceedings before Judge Pouody were not in the exercire of apy legitimate jurtediotion. A! persons concerned in tbem are trespaseers Uonsequently the whole mater touch'ng tho sea ch warrant and its issvo way properly be left ous of view. It was part of the ma ch'nery enyployed to color the depredatious upon the plain- tit property, which the injunction was designed to pre vent (Burt. vs. Pince. 4 Wend. 600 ) 4, The attempt to screen Conover from responsibility on the grocnd of want of concert between hiuself as recetver of the {pjuzetion and his various agents—agents actiag on p= retainer and in his presenco—is a striking piece of ef ontery. WW The contemp'nous language of Conover's senior counsel and ibe conemptnour acte of hie janior counsel, harmonize so perfecily, n¢t merely in temper but ia acinal effect, indicating concert, that were there no proof of tho foct tbat ihe injunction was known to Brewer before ho left the room, the fact would be sail ciently established. Bat the proof ig fall, direct and conclusive. TV. On the undisputed fects which before the referee, a contempt is clearly shown. It ig proved by Mr. Vanderpoel, that he informed Mr. Field of the injunction before the search warrant was signed; Rrewer alto kuew of it. Nottoe to Field or Brewer was nojice to and beund Conover. (1 Barboor’s Ch. Pr., 633.) V. It was clearly proved before the referee that the in- junction was served, and the announcement of such service made by Mr. Brady before Brewer or Farrington left the jm. On this point conclusive evidence was given by Frode- rick L Vultee, Aaron J. Vanderpool, Charles O'Cenor, Henry Bertholf, Mr. Harnett, and others. VI. The teetimony of the geutlemen just namod is corro- borated by «large number of disinterested witnosses on the part of th: Leys and as to the service of the in- junction befor: wer or Farrington loft court, Mr. Pol- lock, ® witness for Conofer, confirms distinctly the state- ments of our witnosses. VI. Nearly all Conover’s witnerses were his friends, follow partizans, or oxpectants of office under and ac- in bis proceedings against Devin. Their testimony is wholly ineffe-tual to overcome ours. VIIi. If the Court conclude that the violation of the in- junction was as to Conover inadvertent, Vonover may be ‘excured on returning the books removed from the Street Com wisaioner’s office, a»andoning his prezent possession of that office, and paying the expentes of thie proceeding. , Sickles thea reviewed at great length the testimony taken by the referee—all of which appeared to fall in the Biaxasp at the timo—and tiicnc cleo out some palpa- ble contradictions in the witosses her side; one of them directly contradicted in a potatalmoal every ‘witness in the case, cn both aides, and another who swore that be in Court the whole timo, did not bear Mr. Brady make the announcement, whit tention of every cne in the curt room. Brady, one of Conover’s witnesros, stated that he did vot leave Court until the announcement was made ani the argu. ment on it was concluded. He then went to tho S'reet Com- missioner’s office, and at thet time Brewer and Farringtoo bad done nothing towards the execution of the warrant; tbat, even admitiing that these two ware not in Court at the time of the announcement, Conover bia counsel bad fime enovgh to prevent ths violation of ‘he tyjunction if they wished. Alivaing Witness Farringtoa Mr. Sickles suid, that {t was refeshing in these times to fled a public cfficer working indofatigaoly at his . day and Bight, for nothing ; taking no h ng, expecting nothing—as be informed uo—rlaking hie life and sacred houor without He repented |t was refroshing; aud tho testimony of #0 pure and d \nterorted ® man ought to ro ceive great woight, xe no doabt bis honor would be tlt by the other side. | Me. Sickloe commented st lovrth ou Conttable Farrington’s tes) mony, contending that hia ovi dince alone wor suillclent to prove that the lojauction waz Celinera ely and contemptucualy violated. Mr. Field eaid, in reply, that \f he exid all he thonght about thir case he would be saying whyt would nct be proper to be heard tn this court He dooltned io aay any- twig more of the Ianguage uted by opposite coal be fore Jacge Peabody. ! 2 tad «aid all that he meant to say on that matter, an would proceod to aaswor the points In a vody fad no jorts tion ia the proceedings in whica be decided Lie (dr F.) donied that the Common Ploss Court had any right toto quire inte the title to an office that belongs to the Sapreme Court alone, and no Injancilom coming from this conrt, be Would say aa Couns !. would be worth me paper.

Third—An {njoncticn is now am order, and is to be rorved as ciber orders are required to be served. There can be no contempt therefore of an injunction, when there ‘ould not be a contempt of an order served in the «ame manner and under the samo circumstances.
