TO THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD. ‘There is no doubt of the fact that flegrant outrages have been perpetrated by British cruisers upon our very coast. Oar fiag bas been dishonored and our commercial interests interfered with. We are told that the necessary orders bave been despatched to the Home Squadron, and it is commonly believed that our guns will soon be interposed between our merchantmen and the insolent aggreesions of British officials. Of what does the Home Squadron coasist’ ‘What is its efficiency? And to what are we to look for pro. tection—for immediate actin? These questions naturally suggest themselves, and involve the necessity of an ex amination into the condition of our means of defence, and particularly ef that of the much talked of “Homo Sjuad- ron.” ‘The steam frigate Colorado, the sloop Jamestowa and the steamer Fultonare the guardians of our long line of coast, and the representatives ef our power on the coasts of Mexico, Central America and the West India Is!ande. The Colorado has just sailed from Norfolk, the James- town is probably at Aspinwall or Greytown, and (ue Fal- ton at Tampico. The Colorado isa noble ehip and a credit to the flag she bears, but is by no means adapted to coast work; there are but few harbors she can enter, and she is too unwieldy to work to advantage among the small vessels which our friends on tne other side of the water employ so actively for our annoyance. The Jamestown is well enough, but bas not the essential quality of certain, repid locomotion; she is ¢f no account where steam is used. The Fulton is a little steamer, only fit to make fair weather from port to port; she is slow®&nd would be use- less inascaway. If pot absolutely worthless, she is so near itas rot to be worthy of consideration. This ia our Home Squadron. That the same number of officers, man, and guts could be much more advantageously employed is evident. We must have small steamers, gun boate,and that without dela) It is true that ‘tbe American Navy has ever afforded to American sailors !it no protection.” Why ts this? Our equadrons are too sma!l—men and guns enough, per- bars, but we are behind the times, and beve not availed ourrelves of the most efficient and useful class of vessels. In this we must follow the English and French: we should have been before them. Provided with suitable vessels, we shall no longer see a heavy lumbering frigate “grounding upon ber beef bones’’ in a harbor where ap occasional visit only is required, and when Griven out by disease, slowly making her way to some otber available port; but we shall have cruisers. We bavenct one in cymmission now. Cruising hag gove out of fashion in our service There are other causes which have crippled the efll- of our aval force—to one of which only I will allude at present. (Officers have pot been sufficiently en. couraged and supported, their orders have been vague ‘and unratiafactory; too much bas been left to their cis cretion. and parporely, that they may.be commented or made scape goats of accorving to circumstances.

You have not been again, of other things that bave occurred part of mas most interested er sult of this prosecution, and on the part of man (the most important witness on the prosecution) who has failed to put himeelf upon the stan: to prove the falsehood of this alleged libel. Ordinarily in the trial of acbarge of libel, the public prosecutor puts the complaipant upon the stand and submits him to an examination He proves first the falsehood of the libel by him; apd secondly, he proves that the matter alleged to be iibellcus points to bim and relates to him—that they are uptrue—and proves facts and circumstances tenoing tosbow tost the party that made the publication was guilty of malice. Upon this occagion the complainant bimself--tbe man who knows the moet about this case—is not placed upon the stand, is purposely witnheld by his own private counsel. Ho proposes to submit the issuee of this cause, which, instead of being an issue between tho fr ms of the State of New York and Mr Carr, is aa issue etween Mr, Busteed, on the one hand, end Counsel to the Corporation and the tax paying, tax ridden people of the city of New York, on the other. That is the question. Tha public prosecutor has bed a perfect right to hand over this caze to the private couneel of Mr. Busteed. It there- fore aesumes in pointof fact the sbape and character which I originalty gave it in your bearing—of a private Preeecution, carried on by a private prosecutor for the bevefit of a private or through the iater- Yeution of private counsel. What, erefore, is there public in it? Nothing, es I shall show you, gentlemen, connected with this coutroversy. Mr. Carr bas very little or no interest in it ; it has become al- most matter of indifference to him as it is has become almost a mattor of indiff-renoe to every owner man in the community who has thought proper either to raise his band, or put his hand tn bis pocket to create a purse to stem the torrent of villapy, rascality and corruption tha has existed and bas prevailod in the city of New York for the last ten or fifteen years. The question is not a ques- tion of individual right as between Mr. Carr and Busteod, but it is the grand, the solema, serious question, whether corruption shall heat the foundation of | ‘our institutions; whether men unfit to occupy public place, public power, and pubiie office by reason of their becoming public plan: derers through the forms of law; ae the guar- diang and the proper exponents the hoaesty and morality of the community es continue to go on wtih the same success hereafter that they have been permitted to go on heretofore unattended to an arrested.

Were it not that these two principles were to be setilod by their verdéct this case would sink into uiter insignificance, and as you find, said Mr. W., the people of this community wil understand whether “they are to go into mental thral fom or whether they are to breathe like free men, that individuals may speak of men holding public office with out fear of being indicted, tried, convicted and banded over to the court and sent to the penitentiary.

Mr. Busteed said, “What, assail me,a high digoitary “Look ujo0n ‘this & ture,” said Mr. W.. pointing to Mr. Carr, “and thea k upon that;”’ poirting to Wr. Busteed. (droat laugh- ter.) Mr. Carr was a gentleman of high standing and uo questioned integrity, and endeavored to expose the sys- tem of street opening; aad lest the system should be bro- ken up, Mr. Busteed burried up the alleged libel. Sr. Carr pever knew Mr. Busteed personally, but on the con- trary he was recommended by Fernando Wood, the pri- vate friend of Mr. B., to be appointed as one of ths com- wiseioners. Such av ast on the part of Mr. Wood raised him in his (Mr Whitivg’s) cetimation, and he was only sorry that ail the other nominations that were suggested were notof the same character. The learned coansel then referred to himself sersocally ,and observed that inthe whole course of his career in this city no dollar had ever been put in bis pocket teat was cursed by the widow's torgue or corroded by the orpban’s tear. And rather than convict an honest citizen who sought to effoct a re form in cur city government, we ought to thank him for coming up to this mighty work, that we may break down this stronghold of public officers, who fail to tell us what wey do With the money that they wring {rem our pockets, and he (the speaker) bad but acommoa tatorest with them, with the jury: and every man in the city of New York bad an ioterest in it. Mr. Whising pro- ceeded to criticise the indictment, and ingeni- ously argued that there were no inuendoes con tained in it. The tax payers of this city bad to pay for several thiogs not meationed by Mr. Carr. Tue item for street cleaving amounted to pearly $3,000,009 a year, and there is ecarcely a piace in the city that potatoes and corn cannct be raired for nothing. By reason of Mr. Carr's siting on that commissioa the city of New York was saved $400,000, Mir, Whiting said that he thougat the tax payers of this city ‘ought not to pay for beds or bedatug, which he could baye shown by & witoess, had not the Court ruled the question oat. “We coukl indict and oon- yict a thief who stole a loaf of bread, and send him to the penitentiary, but the man who robbed according to law was cxcused. He would give them the paper, and they could peruse the whole of it ia the jury room, and they would see that there was nothing libellous in it, for the reason that it did pot bold Mr. Bas- teed up to ridicule or contempt, nor did it chargehim with dereliction of au.

They pat Mr. Bennett on the stand, and what does he say? I readfrom the report of hia evidence as published in his owa paper, the Henan. Mr. Bennet testified as fol ows:— Q At tae time be banded you that what did he state to you in relation to it? A. 1 Co not remember particularly the precise conversation; I bad refused the publication of rome previous articles from and | asked bim it there was anything libellous in it, he said no, but that T had better read it over; he said the article showed how the public treasury was robbed in this city, and how the taxes bad increased so much, that it was one of the modes: in which the public treasury was robbed, that seemed to be his motive in bringing it to me; I read itover and did not see that it was Wesloes; it stated facts; as Mr. Bustood was a public ¢iliow as investigations w fod out how the city money was expended were going on, 1 doomed it proper to publish it, for we are dreadfully plundered in this city. (Laughter. ) The prosecution prove by Mr. Bennett that it is no libel, and the eee ear that the verdict of the jary, soon to be given in favor of Mr. Carr, would pronounce that it was no libel. Owing, eaid Mr. W., in conclusion, to the extraordinary manner in which this cause has been got up, tried, and the mode o” ite trial, and the unwilling ness on the’ part of the prosecution to come up equate to their work like men, we bave an entire want of knowledge as to what will be thp precise rules of law that will be taid down by the co We are at seaon the subject. At one moment we are told that the juryare to be the judges of the law and of the facts,and in the next mo ‘ment that the court was to give them the rule; and for that reasoa a large proportion of the evidence for the defence, which the iatereeta of the community rendered it necessary that we sbould have ooemeany to give, had been excluded. The speaker warned the jary to be very cantious of tbe assertions whicd counsel on other side might make, either aa to fact or Ia correct his errors as he went along, for he id obtiged to fall into many if be hoped to be sacesssful in convincing them that Mr Carr ought to be convicted. Mr. W. aleo cantioned them against being unduly influenced by what the Judge might eay, ani quoted an yop be support of his position. Was there acything in the whole case that called for severe animadversion or that required a trial’ Since they had beard ali the testi- mony the defence was permitted to give, was there aay thing which, if they had written, 7 would expect or anticipate, under the charge that could fell from the lipe of any court, ‘would result in a conviction at the hands of twelve honest and intelligent jurors’ Mr Bosteed had placed himeelf upon the same jury that the defendant was obliged to take, and let this verdict be rendered so that men holding public office might understand that they could not avail themer!ves of a justification ander cireum stances like theas, through the intervention of an indict ment, when they, instead of wasting their time in auch « prosecution, should be spending it in correcting the errors: reine out by the paper compiained of as libellous. Mr. iting again reminded the jury that the Counsel to the Corporation was a ge id officer, receiving more than $20,000 annually, and probably not less than what Mr. Carr states ($90,000), including perqai- sites, And become be receives such an amount he would bave the jury say by their verdict no man must speak of bie office. lest he be indicted, tried, convicted and sent topricon. “if you are prepared to do it,”’ said the counsel, ‘‘send him there; the responsibility is upon you; then perform the doty you owe to yourselves, your con: sciences and your God. | do not wonder that this case has created such an interest as no other case that has come before this Court for many a term has done; for it is rosecution new in itt aepecta, and atte io eatab- Tish ap eptirely new rule with regard to libel.
