10 ABOUT THE OYSTERS. AMAR ARARAAADARAAR IE A Visit to the New Oyster Bed—A Subma- rine Pike's Peak—Description of the feene—The Beds and Their Yield—Opi- nions and Speculations, &o., &. ‘The oyster is an ancicnt institution, having been the comfort and solace of the people of all ages and many tands. It is described by a very early writer thus: ‘The oyster is a creature that perambulateth the bottom of the sea, and absorbeth nutriment trom the slimosity thereof. It hath for its munineot and protection two eouches or vaboula, and therein advantageth the testudo, ‘or shell crab, which is mighty vulnerable between tho joints of his belly. ‘The oyster has Veen much thought about, talked about, written about, and legisiated about by philosophers, savants, statesmen, poets and legislators, both ancient ‘and modern, Tho inhabitants of the isle of Cyprus made a law tha’ if any Jew should be cast upon thoir coasis he should straightway be knocked on the head, parcty and simply, as we are told, on agcount of the Jow- tsh abhorrence of this delectable shellfish. The Romans greatly esteomed oysters, and the poet Horace partook of those raised from the Lacus Lucrinus, (* Lacrina conchy- tia,””) washing thom down with bis Lesbian wine, A learned Welehman—Gridiiwgl—exwls the oyster, but thinks that if much partaken of they dispose to melancholy, and to tne sccing in one’s sleep of phantoms and incubj. Ta mo- dern times the oyster is universally appreciated, and no- where more so than in this country, where they have long been abundant. The oysters of Virginia (in whose de- fence Gov. Wise proposed to draw the sword of that an- sient commonwealth have been specially celebrated in the poet's song:— Raking among the oyster beds, ‘To me it was but play, And the great modern poet, A.

For many years past this peaceful, unoflending colony of oysters had occupied their briny home, secure in its undiscovered depths against human rapacity and voracity. They bad revelled in ‘The verdant slime, the mossy rocks o’or head, The yielding mud that formed ‘heir native bed; Scenes of their early childhood’s simple bliss Or mutual love’s maturer happiness, Where peace o’er all diffused its magic spell And sweet contentment smiled in every shell. But fate had decreed a speedy end to all this happiness, and a ruthless invasion of their happy homes. About a month ago a diver at work in recovering the sunken pro- peller Charles Osgood, off Eaton’s Neck, reported that he had found an extensive oyster bed, but very little atten- tion was paid to his report. About three woeks ago, how- ever, a party of ermen from Darein, Conn., being anchored on the bed, found that their anchor dri 1) and hove overboard an oyster dredge to assist in bolding on, When they came to draw up the dredge. uswev 1 they found it full of oysters, and further inves ation ro suted in filling their boat and convincing thom that they had made a discovery of mmense valu: They agreed te keep their discovery secret in order to avail themselves of its advantages, but one of their nuanber, probably finding himself pressingly in want of money, Violated his engagement, for the consideration of $500, cash down, piloted a number of City Island oyster- men tothe bed. The news rapidly spread, oystermen flocked in from all directions, ret from day to day the tlect has increased up tothe present time. There are boats from all parts of Long Island und the Connecticut shore, from New York, Staten Island, New Jersey,and even from Newport, R. I. The fleet ts of a misceilancous cha- racter, including three or.four steamboats and a couple of Tognian built canal boats, and eyen scows rigged with WHAT HAS BEEN DONE. It is impossible to state with accuracy how many oys- ters have already been taken, but intelligent men esti- mate the whole number of bushels up to the present time at 200,000. During the past week not less than 100,000 bushels were taken, and the catch on Satur- @ay alone amounted probably to 15,000 bushels. Ono veasel, managed by experienced oystermen, is reported to have taken 500 bushols in one day and to have laaded 2,000 bushels in the course of a week; and another is represented to have taken 3,000 bushels since the dis- covery. The three or four steamers at work havea de- cided advantage in not being compelled to rely upon the wind, and their decks are literally loaded with oysters, Upon the deck of one steamer a pen had been built, and men were at work with wheelbarrows, wheeling the ‘oys- ters upa plank and dumping them ‘into the pen. all hands concur in stating that the supply does not appear to fail; that though they dredge apparently ove: the samo ground, again and again their dredges come up as full now as they did the first day. One boat, provided With eight dredges, brought up twenty-eight bushels at one crossing of the bed, emptying only two of their dredges the second time. HOW THE OYSTERS ARE CAUGHT. ‘This oyster bed is said to be not only the largest but the deepest ever discovered, at least in this part of the world. Soundings taken, rather imperfectly however, at the lower or eastern end of the bed, indicated a depth of eight or nine fathoms at low tide, (at high tide it would be six or eight feet deeper,) and at the other end the depth appears to be a little less, There is no way of obtaining the oysters at such a depth except by dredging. A dredge consists of an iron bar held by two arms at either end, the arms deing so bent that the bar passes over the bottom like a rake. The oysters piled in a heap im front of the bar at Inst fall over it into a net or sack, made of streng iron wire which is attached, and is capable of containing from one to five bushels. The whole ig attached to the vessel dredging by means of a strong rope a hundred foct or more in length, and when supposed to be filled is pulled up by hand and empued of its contents. Very little trash—that is, weeds, stones, &c.—is_ brought up, the load generally consisting of large rough oysters, alive and snapping. Of course, a yess with half a dozen dredges attached, moves rather slowly and with very unequal speed, and great precautions are necessary to avoid collisions. By general consent the dredging is all done in one direction, the fleet moving in line; nevertheless, collisions do occur, and dredges are som: times lost by vessels driven upon tho reefs. Ono of the steamboats was run into by a large sloop on Saturday, whereupon the crews of tho sailing vessels, who do not approve of oystering by steam, set up a hearty hurrah, The damage, however, was found not to be serious. Generally the best of good humor prevailed on the ground, the workers being elated by their success. Dredging is said to destroy the oyster beds, by breaking the edges directions sending back wonderful stories of great oysters tying in aps on the bottom for miles and miles, along the Sound. We announced the discovery last week, and in order to be able, notwithstanding all the conflicting items afieat, to lay before our readers au intelligible and correct acceunt of the nature and extent of the discoveries, we despatched a special reporter to this aqueous El Dorado. WHERE THE OYSTERS ARE. The new oyster bed, now called in all that region par excellence, “the oyster bed,” is located from forty to wixty feet under water, in Long Island Sound, about three miles north of Eaton’s Neck, on Long Island, and nine or -e miles south of the Connecticut shore. The nearest arbors are those of Huntington bay, Loyd’s Huntington, Centreport.and Northport harbors, from six to nine miles and all easily accessible to those acquainted with them, and affording abundant and secure anchorage. Eaton’s Neck (which, by the way, like all the “‘necks”’ in that region, is not a neck, but a promontory) 4e crowned by u lange Fresvel light, which of a dark night sends its rays far up aud down tae Sound for the geilence of navigators. A long ref, or ledge of rocks, extends orthward from the point of the Nece mile or 60 with the Sound, and ter bed,@ level plain, with a urface, about a mile and a half or haif to three-quarters of a mile droad, constituting a sort ef middle ground, with a channel of much deeper water on either side. On one end the bed is limited by ureef,over which the oyster dreegers cannot pass, and ia the other direction the end of the bed is indicated by failure of oysters and deeper water. It is believed that over this whole area slers are scattered as closely together as the 7 in great heaps intelli y would von in this scattered stat ons of bushy deyond this ties the o; gravel or cobble ston two mites in length, at repudiated b agsert that t and experiencad smother”? and she HOW THEY CAME THERE. The babit of the oyster is to linger about the shores in Demy ae 3 ; and where there is enough of fresh water from the shore to enabie them to fatten. Hence not belicved that the inhabitants of this great bed were there colonized by any natural means, since to. reach the bed from shore they must have traversed the bottom for lot ances where it is a hundred fect or more from the surface, and over which the tide ebbs and i the other hand it is asserted or twenty years agoa Huntington oysterman udder (the Seudders have be k Hite echooner, the Liream, several bushels of yaung oys. ters of ‘‘seed,”’ which he had taken up at the mouth of Northport harbor and rosa the Sound by ‘“plant”’ somewhere aton ut shore, Soverai of the “oldest inhubitants’’ profe ember the atty distinctly, and that it occurred at the very yx he bed hus now been disco’ From this ¢ the Huntingtou men and Northporters contend and expeciaily the Scuddrs, ought to have ex ft son the bed—a doctrine utterly laugied to ecorn by the “rest of mankind.” HOW YOU GET THERE. The most direct and obvious means of reaching the *diygine” is either by taking one of the excursion steam: ers advertised in the Haxaup, which steam around the oyster fiat, and afford besides a delightful sail over the ost beautitut portion of the Sound, or by shipping on board a smack to pall and haul at the dredges, Or one may take his chance on sume one of the little old steamers which ply luzily along between New York and various ports on the North shore, ait which in the course of time will land you at Layee dock, whence by stage or private conveyanco—when the stage is over-crowrted—you 2 village grhe ‘most desirab: geset, and thence by stage three or f ington, where you find au ex der) ahd the fast sailing dink Bendder, ready at all lines par ticmen whithorsocver they will at t We rates. Capt. Scudder is an exporienced oy intelligent, and full of old traditions. He is a car thorough sailor and an excellent pilot, ha greater part of his life on the waters of occasional trip up the Hudson river WHAY YOU SEE WHEN YOU GET THERE. Tnder the care and guidance, hen, of Captain Scud dor, our reporter embarked on board the Dovo, and glided down tho boautifal Huntington harbor, throngh the nar- row inlet out into the broad and beautiful Huntington bay, and thence dewn the shore of Eaton’s Neck to the oyster fleet. The ecene was picturesque in the extreme. The shores all around were clear and beautiful in outtine, with grcen fields and dark woode coming directly down to the strip of silvery beach, and the prominent heights crowned with beautiful couutry residences, among them the man. Sion of Commodore 1 Paulding, the famed captor of ‘Wiliam Walker and bis men. Before us was the oyster feet, bumbering ove or two Lundred sail, passing regu- fariy and slowly across the bed, and with some of the Group darting awittly back to the starting point, manaeu- vreing like au immense armada preparing fora grand aval battle. In the tar background lay the blue shores of Conneettout, a regular pauorama of hills, and woods, and farms, and smiling villages, dwindling to the eastward to an indistinct point, whence, on the verge of the horizon. the broad waters of the Sound seem to rise up to moet the dark blue sky. The “dinkoy”” dances merrily over the waves as we percolate the fleet, cautiously dodging 2 Sound, with au the boats, scrutinizing the heaps of their decks, watching the operation ot are ing, and making hurried inquiries of the busy ‘diggers © wot the breeze fresheng rapidly, and the cautions skipper casting an eye to windward, remarks that the tide is about to turn, and if we want to make the harbor before dark we must be about it, adding signiticantly, that this is just about the season of the year for a heavy blow. So laying in a small store of oysters for the homeward woyage, we turn our stern to the oyster fleet, which ra. ily recedes, and before we reach the mouth of the bar- bor presents au appearance not unlike that of a swarm of oysters over which the drodges pass, and crushing and destroying the young oysters or seeds. The probability is, therefore, that the newly discovered bed will be used up in the course of next season at farthest. FURTHER DISCOVERIES. A report is current among the oystermen and gene- rally credited that the man who piloted them to this bed stands ready to show them another of about the same extent, whenever they are ready to pay his price, and many are even of opinion that the bottom of the Souna is dotted over its whole extent with oyster beds which can be found by diligent search. If this conjecture should prove well grounded oysters will soon become sbeedant and chess in our markets, A SPECK OF WAR. There 1s probably no more prolific source of litiga- tion, quarrels and disputes of every grade than oyster beds—the right to dig and plant oysters in public | waters being always vagno and indefinite, and the par- jes interested generally haying little knowledge of the xisting laws bearing on the subject. The State of Con- necticut bas a law prohibiting non-residents from digging oysters within her limita; and although the State of New York has adopted uo such exclusive policy, the inhabi ants of the town of Northport, in town meeting, resolved to legislate for themselves, and not only prohibited by ordi- nance the taking of oysters by means of dredges, which injures the oyster beds, but absolutely forbade non-r dents of the town from ‘taking up any oysters within its jurisdiction. Now the oystermen of City Island, a nume- Tous auu highly respectable class, having very little “plant- ng ground’ at home, were obliged to go abroad to fatten pir oysters, and among other places had resorted to Nortb- port harbor. After the interdiction they came as usual, either in ignorance or defiance of the ordinance, and pro: ceeded to ph There being no ordinance against planting, they were allowed to goon with their operations in peace, but whon they came to reap what they had sown a different state of things existo Some of the oysters had boen removed already, and others ® being taken up before the yory of the indignant City Isianders, engaged in this nefari nos pro’ an old cannon on shore manned y young men, volunteers, from Huntington, Northport and Centreport, and loaded to the muzzle with bits of jron, nails, stones and other hard substances. The gan was discharged scverat times into the bay, by way of in timidation, ploughing up the water in the most dreadful manner; bat, nevertheless, Capt. Josh. Leviness, of the managed at last to run in at a time when inuers were off duty, and finding a couple of boy: mip the oysters, “accidentally” ran on and sank their boat and carried the lacs prisoners to City Istand, ee whence they were a day ortwo in returning. A suit growing out of this affeir, and another growing out of the ali rs ig expected to od surreptitious taking of the oys i this week before the St Court it, when the rights of the parties may possibly be definitely seitled. ‘The affair is made the more compli- cated by the claim set up by an ultra party of the North porters of a right to take up oysters wherever they find them in the public waters, without regard to how they came there. The tact that some of the oycsters were nted upon clam beds is alleged in support of this ultra doctrine. It is fair to state, however, that this dispute has nothing to do with the newly discovered oyster bed, Northport not pretending to claim jurisdiction go far into the Sound. WHAT IS TO BE DONE WITH THE OYSTERS? =, ‘The oysters from the new submarine Ei Durado cannot ‘be made available in market in less than three or four werks after they are dug. They are what oystermen generally call “handsome” oysters, being round at the edges and full ‘They are nearly all above the average rs be tried at Riverhe: size, being what are called in market “count” or extra ellis are remarkably thick and inerustations, and wome of these have been’ completely honey-combyad worms.

The Match Between Eleven English Players and Twenty-two of the United States Cricketers at Hoboken—Immenec Attendance of Spectators—Great Display ,of Cricketing Science—The State of th Game, ac. ‘This long anticipated match at cricket was commenced yesterday on the new ground recently formed at Hobo- ken by the 8t. George’s Club of this city. The weather ‘was all that could have been desired for the occasion, as cool breeze agrecably tempered the sun’s rays,and rendered the witnessing of the match exceedingly agree- able. Atan early hour tho enclosed ground bogan to re- ceive an uninterupted flow of visiters, so that when the wickets were pitched, about half-pasteleven o'clock, there were fully flve thousand people assembled. This number was greatly augmented in the afternoon, so that the num- ber present may be safely estimated between eight and mine thousand people. The arrangements made by the St. George's Club were most excellent, and wero well calculated to secure the comfort and enjoyment of those present, and more particularly of tho fair sex, of whom there were a very large number present, Tents and marquees for the refreshment and convenience of the players, seats and galleries for the accommodation of the public and the presa were liberally provided by tho Club. Indeed, the care and orethought of the St. George’s Club in this respect cou trasted strongly with the different puiicy pursued by the Cricket Club of Montreal, on the occas vay ition week in that city. We are cousequentiy eat be oo late the managers of the St. George’s Club on the suc» + which has so tar attended their liberal ontorprise in bring- ps haut the best team of cricketing professionals in Eng- ‘The commenced about a quarter to twelve o'clock: A. M., by the twenty two players going in first. Lang and Waller (the captain of the twenty-two) first took the bat to the bowling of Parr and Jackson, the former being a. slow underhand, and the lajter a very fast overhand bowler. Parr delivered the first over, and on the third ball Tang scored a single bya fine cut. The first ball of Jack- son's Lang drove for 1, and after scoring two singles moro 4 cute, off Jackson and Parr, he lost his companion, Valler being run out without having scored a run. H. Sharpe, of the New York Club, jnow fuced Lang; but the latter, alter making a forward dr ve for 1, off Parr, receiv- ed his dismseal by one of the tempting but dangerous balls of that bowler; 2. wickets and 8 rons, Ham- mond, the professional bowler of the Germantown Ciub, and ‘a fine bat, succeeded him. In the next’ over from Jackson, Sharpe allowed himself to be tempted ont of his ground by a bal! from Jackson, and the ever-watchful Lockyer had his bails off in an in- stant. This fine performance of Lockyer brought down repeated applause from the assemblage; who could well appreciate his masterly skill and activity an his peculiar branch of the game. Sharpe's score was a single from a drive forward; 3 wickets and 3 runs. Gibbes next faced Hammond; but the first ball he received from Jackson took his wicket, and this once renowned premier batsman of America did not place a single run to his credit; 4 wickets and 8 runs. Scarlett followed, and commenced ‘with a cut from Parr for 1, following it up with another from Jackson for 2. Haminond, in the meantime, was Playing steadily, the bowling, especially Jackson's, being astonishingly true. Five maiden overs in succession from him showed the precision and good length of his delivery. Hammond now made 2 splendid drive for 3, of Parr, but the next one from that. bowler cansed him to retire, he having sent the ball into Hayward’s hands. His score of 6 comprised a 3,a 2 and one single. Marsh next took the bat, but in the very next over from Jackson he was given out “leg before wicket” without having scored any- thing. Wilby succeeded to the vacancy, and after 3 maiden overs made a capital drive for two, off Jackson, and asingieto leg off Parr. Scarlett, in the meantime, bad committed the same error as Marsh, “leg before wicket,”” being the decision of the umpire when appealed to; 7 wickets and 20 runs. Parr in his next over bowled Wilby for 8, and that player made way for T. Senior, of Phila- detphia; 8 wickets and 21 runs. The latter, with H. Wright, now made a stand, but the bowling was too good score off. Senior, after obtaining 3 singles, hit his wicket in playing ata bail of Parr’s. J. Higham, the weil known captain and wicket keeper of the New York Club, now joined issue with H. Wright, but a “trimmer” from Jackson eettled his business; 9 wickets and 26 runs. Mr. Head, of Chicago, was the ext, but he quickly jost his partner in consequence of Lockyer catching him at the ets and 27 runs. The veteran, Samp. Wright, who was heartily applauded on taking his pitts at the wicket, commenced with a single, and the next over lost his partner, Head, who was bowled by Jackson. W. Newhall, of Philadelphia, touk his place and the veteran, in Jackson’s next over, Was induced to step out of bis ground by a “seducer’” from that bowler, and the almost inevitable consequence ensued; he was stumped by Lockyer in really magnificent style; 13 wickets and 28 Morgan, of Philadelphia, now faced his fellow ‘as scoring prettily. After the 8, by a drive for 2.and singles, he was beautifully caught by Diver off Jackson's bowliog. J. Walker, of the St. George's on the list, and the very next over from Parr deprived him ot his’ partner, Morgan, who was caught at slip by Jackson off Farr; 16 wickets and 35 runs. Crossley, the professional of the New York Club, followed; and Waiker retired after a notice to that effect from Jackson, in the shape of asplendid bail ball. Conary. aud Crossley were ient without having called the scorer’s services imlo Feane. sition. Bage, his successor, led off with a capital hit out of bounds for 3, but the very next ball of Jackson’s gave him his quictus. H. Lillywhite, one of the profesvionais of the St. George’s Club, and brother to the celebrated cricketer, John Lillywhite, (who officiated in this match as umpire for the eleven,) bext faced Comery, but playing the first ball from Jackson into the air, it was sccured by Carpenter at point. F. Barclay, of Philadelphia, took his turn; but he, together with Comery, fell the next over without scoring; Hallis, the last man, bringing out his bat without having hed a chance to do anything; the four last men, indeed, all having cyphers after their names. Tho total amount of the innings of the twenty-two being 28 only; no less than nine failing to make @ ran. Dinner was now announced, and after this necessary mat- ter had been satisfactorily accomplished, the eleven com- menced their innings. At three o'clock Hayward and Carpenter appeared at the wickets, opposed to the bowling of Sam. Wright and Crossicy, the former giving the first over. His third ball was finely hit to square leg by Car- penter for 8, and in the next over Crossley balled” by J. Lillywhite, the umpire, afler Hayward had scored a single of him. In consequence, Comery was substituted for Crossley, although it was pretty generally considered by parties competent to judge that the ré- moval of the latter was injudiciows and hasty on the part of the captain of the twenty-two. Crossley is undoubt- edly the best bowler we porsess in the States, and to ro. move him go summarily was ratuer an uncalled for stretch of authority. ‘The change, however, was not tageaus, as the two batsmen cortined to score rapidly, re- peatediy hitting the bali out of the bounds. The bowling was completely ‘collared,’ and ieather hunting in every part of the field afforded absndsnt occupation to the fielders. Afiner display sch ic batting was never witnessed than was afforded by those two celebrated ricketers. Changes in the bowling were tried, bat without avail, as Hallis aud Marsh found their swift cannon balls as easily played and scored off as the more medium paced delivery of Wright and Comery. It was not until after having been at the wickets for one hour and ¢ half that Carpenter was caught by Senior off Hallis, at square leg. His score of 26 comprised five 3's, a twp, and the balance in sing!es. On his retirement he was reteived with a regular ovation of appluuge from the assemblage. One wicket down and sixty runs. Wisden, the rmowned bowler, next joined Hayward, but was unforfunately run_out afler he had scored three; 2 wickets anl 73 runs. The appearance of the most celebrated bdsmen of the age, George Parr, was the signal for repeated acclamations from’ the thousands presnt, to whom his name is as familiar as “household words,” from his cricketing achievementsfor the last@ozen years. He commenced with two singles off Hallis and Gibbés, followed by one of those magnificent leg hits for three off the latter bowler, for which he is so famous. The ball was hit clear over the heads of the outer circle of spectators, and far out of the boundary of the ground, So complee’a mastery had Hayward and Farr obtained over the towling, that it seemed almost impossible to dislodge tiem from their citadela—the wickets—and at five o'clock the stumps were drawn and the game adjourned ill to-day, when it will be resumed at eleven o’clock A. M. Hayward’s score of 32, and nol out, comprised five 3's, two 2's and thirteen sngles, obtained by magniti cent play. Parr had scors 6, and not out, making a (otal of £2, with the loss of two wicket, The eleven are thus ina majority of 44, wien the game commences this morning. Ttappears exceedingly pobable that the Twenty-two will be defeated in one innings,and thus suffer a more hollow defeat than that sustainedby the Canadians. There was # large amount of speculdion on the match, and many wagers were laid that one sf the Eleven would score more than the whole Twenty-wo.

Macdonald, charged with the mur- der of Virginia Stewart.—The District Attorney said that in this case he bad been served with a notice of the inten- tion of the prisoner’s counsel) to apply te the Court for a commission to California. He had sent for the prisouer. The petit jury panel was then callea, and excuses heard from those who were unable to serve. In a short time afterwards Macdonald was brought into Court bandouffed, by Sheriff John Kelly and some of his deputies, The prisoner is a tall, powerful looking and well made man, apparently thirty-five years of age, about 6 feet 11, wearing’a moustache and hair upon his chin; he was pale though resolute, and looked around tue Court room With a quivering and restlessness of theeye. He poi dressed in black, with the exception of a white waist- coat. Mr. James T. Brady (with whom was associated Mr. F. H. Grandin, of New Jersey) said that in the case of Macdonald they had served notice of a motion for ‘various commissions for several places in the Union; the notice was given on the 24th of Soptember for to day, it being the earliest day upon which tho appli- cation could be made, The affidavit of Macdonald discloses that the indictment against him was found in the Court o Sessions, and moved by the District Attorney tu the Court Oyer and Terminer; that several persous named in the affidavit are material witnesses for him, as he is informed by his counsel, James '. Brady and Clarence Seward— some in California, the most of them in Mobile, Ala.; that deponent is a resident of Mobile, Ala., since 1838, and that those witnesses are cognizant of the facts stated, and by which he hopes to prove his innocence. ‘The District Atorney bad no doubt that the application is made in good faith, this being the first day it couid have teen made; if he had had an opportunity he would have consented to it in advance, in order to avoid delay. Tt Was a matter within the discretion of the Court to fix the terms upon which the commission should issue. He de- sired to have tho time limited, and he belioved that a stay of proceedings to the first Monday in December would mect the wishes of the other side. He aiso thought that the prosecution should have power to appomt couuset to cross-examine the witnesses orally, aud to produce wit nosses at these several commissions throughout the coun- try Mr. Brady understood that the District Attorney had in- timated tothe jurors who bad answered to their names that their attendance would not be required till the third Monday ip October, and that the Court. should not actu- ally proceed to business till that time. In regard tothe de- sire of the District Attorney to know what we expected to be proved by those witness, that would be disclosed long prior to that time, for the ‘interrogations would be pre pared with all diligence and despateh, and copy served upon him. ‘The rule as to commissions was perfectly Bet tied, that where a party moves at the first opportunity after issue is joined for commission to issue, he is not compelled to disclose what he expects to prove by the Witnesses, unless the adverse party throw some duabt on tho question of bona fides in making the appli- cation. Insuch case the Court might desire the ing party to stato what ho intended to pr otherwise a purty was allowed to enjoy his privilege of reserving any slatement of his defence till the moment when it became absolutely necessary in the ordinary course of judicial proceedings. Jn this case they had moved at the earliest time. ‘That was conceded. ‘They had moved in good faith. ‘That, too, was conceded. ‘they had named a large number of witnesses. Tt was perfect ly cbvious, from the situation of Macdonald, and the his tory of the cuxe would necessarily show, that the wit: nesees On Whom be had depended would be out of the ju Tisdiction of the court, except so far as a commission might be issued. He was a resident of Mobile—an entire stranger in the city. There was no who had ever known his character or his personal carcer. If it were desired to show what his personal ‘charactor had been, that could oniy be shown through the persons who had known him in the places where he resided or visited, Tn regard to his visit to the city of New York no proof, save to a limit ed degree, could be expected or obtained in this city. But if he were to go on and teil his learned opponent the history of the prisoner, (which he should have no objec tion todo privately,) and ali the incidents which these witnesses were expected to testify to, he would occupy two or three hours. Some of the witnesses would prove, perbaps, only one Tittle fact. Some of them, for instance, would be called on to prove telegraphic messages which might bear directly on the issue in the cage, and on the moral intent of the decased. Being here a stranger, he might claim at least hospitality. He was entitled toa {air trial, and counse! believed he would get a fair trial and be acquitted. As to authorizing counsel te uppear and examine the wit- nesses orally, he had never known such « provision to be made in any order. It would be attended with very t inconvenience and delay, because while he did not that there were many professional men who were ntly qualified to examine witnesses, there were still who knew nothing about examining witnesses, and believed that it consisted only in asking questions without object or point. If, therefore, this unlimited right were given, it might defeat the object which they ail nad in Shaan anequal fo the teil. Ae wy camimtuiay wit Besse on the part of the prosecution, he apprehended there was no right or power in the Court to make auy such provision, He did not know any law that sanc- toned it. Jf there was any he should like the District Attorney to produce it. ‘the District Attorney remarked that the statute was exprees on the subject. Judge Roosevelt Suggested that the best way to proceed was ter counsel to draft such an order as he proposed, Mr. Brady—T have drawn on dudge Roosevelt—And submit it to the other side, and they can submit amendments to-morrow morning at | Chambers. t course was agreed upon, and the order will bo fixed at Chambers in a few days.

PROCLAMATION BY GOVERNOR MORGAN. ‘The gathered harvest and the varied hues of automa admonish us that another year is drawing to a close. To Us, aS a Stato and a nation, it has been a year of countiesa blessings. The labors of the husbandman ha n most abundantly rewarded. Commerce and manufac: tures are recovering from the great prostration into which the late revulsion had thrown them, The pestilence, so much dreaded at our principal seaport, has been happily averted, and health has reigned within our bor lers, While vast multitudes in foregmn lands have been sum- moned from their homes to engage in bloody couflict or to stand in battle array, we have been permitted, in the providence of God, to continue in the enjoyment of fre dom and self-government, and to pursue, amid the plea- ures and comforts of our own firesides, our unexampled career of peace and prosperity. These ‘and the unnum bered other bounties which have been showered upon us as a people and as individuals, should serve to remind us that the homage of grateful hearts is due to Him from whom these mercies flow. I do therefore, in hamble reverence, appoint Thursday, the twenty-fourth day of November next, as a day of general thanksgiving and praise to Almighty God; and Tinvite all persons to ab- stain on that day from their usnal avocations, and to unite in public. declarations of their gratitude to our Heavenly Father, the Anthor and Giver of every blessing.
