I mean to swear to the statement that I made, that I have employed no counsel. Q. Do you know who does employ counsel? A. Tho receivers of the Colchester Bank, Ipresume, sir; Ido not know; It is possible John 8.

But a.short time; I do not know that it was six months ago. Q Had you hada difficulty with Leland previous to your making this communication ? A. I had, sir. Q.

Did not you while that arbitration was pending, state that if Leland did not Goren. babe ae bcd ‘demands you would have him brought to it on a criminal pro- Becution? A. No, sir; I told him that if he attempted this Pte ial nono poeaey between him and harm any longer. Q. Did not you state eee the presence of Messrs. Wells and Chapman, that if Leland would not do certain ‘things you would bring him to Connecticut on a criminal process? A. No, sir. Q.

Have hot you repeatedly threatened Mr. Leland, di- rectly or through other persons, that if he would not com- ply with your demand you would do what you could to- wards bringing him to Connecticut on a criminal process? A. No, sir; I said this to him in person and to friends of his, that if he did not pay the money due to S. F.

Have you never written letters stating that you ‘would put him through if he did not comply with your de- mands? A. No, sir. Q. De you swear so? A. I think so.

Jones, Senior, money due to bim, that I would not stand between. agd harm, but deliver up ail papers and documents that I had in my possession to Mr. Perkins, and that if I was calléd upon to testify I would make no bones of giving the facts; to the best of my recollection, I have written no letter threatening that if he did not comply with my requisition I would bring him to Connecticut on a criminal prosecution. Q. Did you decline to’ go on with the arbitration? A. No, sir; Mr. Leland refused to pay the money due to S. F. Jones, Senior.

Q Your object was to enforce the payment of mone; from Leland to your grandfather, was it, sir? A. Yes, it was. Q. That has been your object all the while, has it not? A. My object was two-fold (after interruption) “first, to have him pay the money due to 8. F. Jones, Sr.; and the second was, if he would not pay the money, that’ I should be made right with the public, and. that the public should know who was at the bottom of this transaction and who ‘were the instigators. Q. How much money was due to your grandfather? A. ‘Thirteen thousand dollars. Q. You said-that you remarked to Eeland that unless he paid this money you would put letters in Perkins’ hands, and you would be a witness—did you state that you any other object in view except to get that payment? A. Ihave said that 8. Leland & Co. were at the bottom of the whole bank matter, and that if I or my friends wore to suffer in cbnsequence of his not paying money due 8. F. Jones, the whole matter should go before the public. 4 Q. Did youdisclose avy other object? A. Ido not think aid. Q. Then you had but one object in view in going to Per- kins? A.

Between neat id '$40,000;) Wileox had no capital; the busi- ness of the firm was that of Yankee notions; the old firm owed my grandfather $7,000; we, the new firm, assumed this indebtedness; I put what money I had in; the firm wag started in 1855; they did business in New York when the ition was made for the bank; I did not take care of the eal lent my name and furnished capital for the concern.

A. No, sir; the twenty per cent that was to be se in on their stock purported to be, and should have en, paid in incash, was put in in notes; the payment or their stock was made and the liability taken away. Q. If the instalment was not paid, were they not legal- ly liable for their stock? A. That is a question I cannot answor; that is a legal question. . What if they were called upon to pay the balance ‘Set opposite their names—would they not be liable? a. I do not know that they would; that stock was not of any value, because the overissue of the notes of the bank, which the bank was res; ible for, knocked out of them all of that stock, 80 when we tranferred $60,000 stock to take up the notes and overissuc, the bank would have no benefit from the payment of the instalment. @ made the transfers on the stock book? A. If any were made J had authority to do it. Q. When this $60,000 of stock was transferred to the Colchester Bank, was the transfer made by the parties in person, or did they give you authority? A.

F, Jones, Jr. Mr. Jones recalled, tostified—Simeon Leland was in Hartford with Warren, according to my impression; think that they were there and took dinner at my house w- gether; I will not swear that Simeon was there. Mr. Warren Leland—That was Lewis. Mr. Jones—Possibly it might have been. Mr. Leland’s counsel admitted that he was here in Pe and October, and knew no one else. but Jones and pe in the business. Q. To Mr. Isham—State the facts about those collate- rals? A. Ido not knew that Mr. Leland took away the ‘bonds; he called and presented an order from some one. Counsel here read the list of collaterals, comprising stocks and bonds, said to have been left by Messrs. Le- land as security for certain notes. The list comprised the Empire Face Brick Company, Magnetic Electric Telograph Company, Hydrogen Gas Company, Canandaigua and El- sien ears, and other similar stocks, with some good stocks. Q. Stato what was said by Leland about these. A. He presented an order, and after consultation the officers of the bank decided that, he should not have them; I thought they were left as the property of the Lelands, but Mr. Ieland claimed they were the property of a Mr. Sanger, of St. Louis; he did not state he owned them himself. Did be claim that 8. Leland & Co. owned them. A. ‘Bir. the Court—How did the bonds come there? A. Ido not Q. Were they not left as collateral security for the notes of S.

Mr. Albert Keeney sworn—I am the proprietor of the Keeney H@tel in this place; kept that house in January, 1867; it is my impression that he was here in Jnnuary; 1 can’t state when it was; believe it was in January. Mr. 8, A. Kellogg sworn—Was a director in the bank; thought come of these bonds and stocks would be feund worthless, and some worth little or nothing; the directors did not guess about it, they had some reliable informa- tion; did not know how the bonds and stocks were left. @” Would there be any damage to the bank if the notes for which these were security Were paid, althaugh the se- curities were entirely worthless? ‘The prosecution admitted that there would not’ be any damage in such a case. The defence admitted that if Mr. 8. F. Sharpe was pre- sent he would testify that the letters said to have been written by Warren Leland were in his handwriting. Mr. Jones recalled, and testified that some of the bonds and stocks spoken of had very little value, and some of them were entirely worthless. Q.

[Note.—The Lelands have brought suit for these bonds, and the receivers gave them up.] Mr. Halsey then summed up the caso for the Hera tion, Mr. Strong replied for the defence, Mr. Waite re- joined for the prosecution, and Mr. Wells concluded the summing up for the defence at a brief evening session, the court having sat about ten hours.

LELAND, AND HIS RE- ARREST ON THE SAME CHARGE. CoonesrEr, Oct. 2), 1859. Justice Lamb decided this morning that no proof had been adduced to sustain the charges brought against Mr. Leland, and discharged him honorably. Mr. Leland was immodiately arrested on eubstantially the same charges in a different form, and gave bonds for $10,600 on two complaints, Mr. Leland’s counsel alleging that the bonds were exorbil The trial of the new cases was postponed to November 21, the instigators of the suit just concluded being understood to say they bad no further criminal cases to bring against Mr. Leland. DEMOCRATIC MASS MEETING AT BUFFALO, Speech of Daniel 8. Dickinson=The Irre« pressible Conflict=Mr. Dickinson’s Issue with William H. Seward. SPECIAL REPORT OF THE NEW YORK HERALD. Burrato, Oct. 20~10 P. M. The democracy of this city have just held a large and enthusiastic meeting at St. James’ Hall, Hon. W. E. Fargo President, and twenty-six Vice Presidents. Sonator Dickinson and Attorney General Tremain were the prin- cipal speakers. After the usual preliminaries, Mr. Dickin- son being loudly called for, addressed the mecting as follows:— Political discugsions ustally lose more than half their force, because they are wont to doscend from the con- sideration of principles and organizations and great po- litical divisions of the people to the profitless, irritating and degrading pursuit of individual detrattion or review of private character, where the laudations are usually excessive and the criticisms bitter and unjust. The le- gitimate consideration of our political condition by as- sembling together and comparing opinions, is a high duty and a proud Brivilege. It awakens popular attention to concerns of deep public moment, too generally neglected, and learns the inquiring mind to think for its if and to rise above the narrow conceits of mere partisan rallying words, designations and pretensions. Its tendency is to educate the masses in the a(fairs of government and make it what it should be, a government of the people and not of politicians—a government of the many and not of tho few, and to hold public servants to a rigid accountability before a well informed consti ency. When political gatherings, meetings or conven- tions are 80 condutted as to elevate and. liberalize the mind, and to mitigate Partisan Prejudice, spleen and rancor, they render a high public service; when they have no worthier aims than inculcating error and stimu- lating passion for a temporary advantage, they would be ‘more honored in the breach than in the observance.” There are and must be in political society, two great par- ties, aud two only, for all others must be mere temporary offshoots. One of these will be the party of the people and of the constitution, and the other will be of miscella- neous formation acting under a roving commission and living as jt lists. Tn this address J treat ontirely of parties a8 such, of organized hodies and the pretensions they ad- vance, the professions they make od the works they ac- complish, THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY. The democratic party is a party of the people; its name is no unmeaning designation; its power reposes with the masses; it is the great autagonism of privilege and combina- tion, and the friend of political equality ; it lives and moves, and has its being, wherever strong sinews grasp their implements, and warm and generous hearts pulsate. Itisa party of to-day as well as to-morrow and forever; it takes counse} of the experience of the past, but seeks to redress the grievances of the present and provide against the abuses of the future. Like a great army it marches for- ward to its destination, leaving none but those who auffer and sicken for lack of promotion, who are wounded by rejected expectation, or die by suicide, from disappointed hope; and the places of all such are supplied. by new en- listtnents from the young, and healthy, and vigorous, and from the mature, who are won by the justice of itseause. Like ail armies it must have its ‘camp followers, and lag- garde, and prophetic Cassandras; but while they are more expensive than ornamental or useful, they neither retard its progress, control its. movements, nor sway its case, with ples. Its mission is to, and its care for, the living. It has ‘no time to mourn over the grave of dead and’ buried issues—to redress personal gricfs, real or imaginary—to stand as arbiters between the conflicting clainis: of rival leaders— to waste upon the as; of personal ambition—nor sympathy to expend upon individoal: controversies for position. Its wolicl+ tude is for the many and not the few, for the and not for politicians, for | masses and not )for! individuals, tor principles amd:not for mon, ‘The great chart of democracy may be rend in the Declaration of In- dependence—its guiding star.ta the Conatitution—-its strong! and radical analysis exposes and casts off error, and ite grand aud conservatism, forms barrier which the waves of falsehood and fanaticism may dash in vain for ages. Its “irrepressible conflict” is a conflict for freedom, equality and the rights of man, against false- hood, favoritism and. privilege—for complete equality of pohtical rights between persons, and for that equality of right between sovereign States which the genial spirit of bk — suk migieaied, ae the provisions of the constitu- i—an equality of rights to be asserted if theory and mifintained in practice—to be read in the lot ter and enforced in the spirit, without technical evasions or mental reservations—embracing persons, property and political right®, throngh all the variations of mood “wud fouse, without regard to kina vr quaniy, gr geudery inlectote with or deny, thelr tion and ont, fere with or deny thei rotect an nt, must be a conflict hatched b; de inout be tons ‘ and ending in est bloodshed ‘The only “irrepressible conflict’ which democracy would wage between the States of this confederacy is a contlict of generous rivalry in the performance of fraternal-du- ‘ ties—in observing and obeying the obligations enjoined by nstitution—in securiag to each other with alacri- ty or constitutional right—in str the tiesand brightening the chains which bind together and in ‘ing numerous free, sovereign, equal and independent States one in sentiment, ip and kindly regard.

THE “REPUBLICAN” PARTY The opposition party, whose name is as changeable as the expedient to which it resorts, a8 an a ie ob- apol rinciples, taking color like the chamelion, from Jock 08 which it rests, without popular power or fixed principles, seems to have been contrived to give steadi- ‘ness of movement to the democratic party, retard its action, as a heavy weight called a ‘‘balance wheel” is laid ag an incumbrance upon machinery. 4 lineal descend- ant of the old federal party, it inherited little but its in- tolerance and its vices, and in dissolving the late whig party, and in bidding for the malcontents of demo- cracy, it threw off its only i sere ita best ability, and its conserv: fossing: supreme rej for the purity of legislation, it has made 1g Sweat-pit of a corrupt the Capitol the smoking, and shameless lobby; the ian of State credit and State honor, it has swollen the public debt to about forty id provide for the payment of accr: interest—the protector of labor, it has burdened it wil unnecessary and oppressive taxation for more than ques- tionable objects—the friend of free suffrage, and eudeavor- ing to cl ‘the constitution so as to authorize negro voting—it has erected dificult and burdensome, expen- sive and unconstitutional barriers between the white voter and the ballot box, under the pretence of a registry law, to deprive him of a freeman’s prit or greatly em- barrass its exercise. and it has uniformly resisted the na- turalization of foreigners. Boasting a creed of universal application, wherever Christianity and civilization have travelled, its aliment is sectional disturbance and so per- nicious its purposes, and go fngitive its character that it finds neither ‘ local habitation nor namo” in nearly one half the States of the Union. The champion of law, it deposes judges of its own party who declare it from the bench, and while profanely swearing allegiance to the constitution, it defies its provisions, resists their enforce. ment, and seeks to wage a war of ‘/ irrepressible con- flict’? and extermination between. sovereign States of a ‘common Union, and between children of the same heritage, until all shall be free or all slave States. It mourns as one without hope over the woes of the col man and ex- cludes him by law from new States when it has the power, upon the idea of the'sarcastic. abolition poet that, It’s well enough agin a king, To draw resolves and rs, Bat Liberty’s a kind of a ‘That don’t ‘with niggers. Destructiveness is wi upon every feature of its phrenology, and its constructive power is confined to the tion of debt, the erection of registry laws and kindred In addressing the masses, it seeks to inflame the passions rather than appeal to Shetr Lier mn yor ESS int OP ater cd wholesome and permanent principles.

Texas, or Florida, or Califor- nia, or New Mexico; and could it now gain control, the Northern and Southern States would be driven to an “r- repressible conflict” with each other until all should be- come free or all slave Statese—until one-half the States of the confederacy should be forced to bow in servile sub- mission to the other. That we may enjoy a foretaste of the moral and political beauties of the pi “drre. pressible conflict,” we have but to read of insurrec- tion, revolt and murder where it has really been ushered in at Harper’s Ferry; the legitimate, necessary and terri- le fruits of such evil and industrious sowing. From its course of ley one would suppose its mem ers had read the constitution a8 Curelessly as certain members of Congress are sald to have read theology, or in the place of the constitution, “Living Made Easy,” or “John Law on Banking.” It is related of two members of that ina social moment each boasted over the other of his early advantages and especially of his religious education when one staked a hundred dollars that the other could not accurately repeat the Lord’s Prayer. taken and the money put up, and he who was to recite commenced :— Now T lay me down to sl Ipray the Lord my soul to Keep; 1d dle —— I nm “Stop | stop!’ said the other; “you need not gd through—I give up the money. ‘Thad no idea you knew it” The people of the first State in the confederacy have been long enough withdrawn from the redress of domestic abuses, for the consideration of subjects. abroad, to re- turn for a season to the embarrassed concerns of their own noble empire. It was the old democratic policy to pay as you go. “Republican” rule has repudiated the paying system, and the following are the fruits of the policy. ‘Tho public debt and the fuancial condition of the State are substan- tially as follows :— Old canal debt 11,765,008 99 General debt, funded 6,505,654 37 New canal debt... 12}000,000 00 Floating debi 3,000,000 00 Total...... $94,783,338 85 ‘The yearly iniere: 7 $3,000,000 00 ‘The nett resources of the State about 1,000,000 00 Leaving acleficiency of $1,000,000 every yoar in payin interest alone, All tho residue of principal and interest beyond the annual revenues, must be paid by direct taxa’ ation.

Such is the hereditary antagoniam of the democracy—sacastically self christened “Republican”—guch its lack of principles, ‘such its aims and objects—its pursuits and purposes, its difficulties and its dangers. Its only polar star will be power, which it will gain, tothe country’s cost, unless the democracy does its whole duty‘ its uses will be to admonish the democracy of their mission and noble principles. Its existence, in some form and under gome name will be coeval with the existence of democracy; but it will bear the same relation to democracy that falsehood does to truth, and rival entomology in the changes it will expe- rience, from the egg, deposited by its dying parent, and the creeping larve to the gaudy-winged butterfly in the full tide of =" mmer sunshine. ‘THE NECESSITY FOR DEMOCRATIC UNION. ce the country and the constitution must repose for fety upon the democratic party, the members of which are scattered over the vast area stretching from the St. Johns to the Pacific, and from the St. Croix to the Rio Grande, they must, if they would succeed, listen to a com- mon watchword—be moved by a common impulge—aim at a common object and march in solid column to its attain. ment. The opposition being assailants, can act as guerrillas and carry on a miscellaneous and predatory warfare offec- tually and successfully, if thoy find the democracy di- vided. ‘They are in cities and villages and at the cross- roads, and are always ready to assail democratic prin- ciple and ean work better without organization than with. If they succeed they gain all, for they only seek the overthrow of the democratic Party for’ station and forage; if defeated they lose nothing, for they have no- thing to sustain but their own necessities and desires, ‘Tho union of the democratic masses of the party is now complete, beyond the power of faction to tear open its wounds, For this union, since there ceased to be a dif- ference in principlo, I have faithfully and zealously labor- ed with the best faculties of my nature, and now that its ‘consummation js sealed I'am contented.

It is a moderate tax for tho attainment. of so ‘great any object, and one whieh.a ubited democracy or ittdividuals assailed can well ‘to pny.” But the united troops are in motion, and efforts to arrest them ‘by faction will be as as unsuccessful as those of a mastiff who has missed his bone and seeks: indemnity and redress by barking ata jocomotive under fall headway.

The officer was successfully def before. a jury by the renowned Patrick Honry, who, at the close Fy his cumming up, exclaimed, “Whois this, that disturbs anatien’s repose at the close of her war of ‘Independence by the cry of beef ! beef! beef??? And Lrepeat, who is there that would disturb the peel @ great party and revive its buried conflicts after a bootless war, equal in duration to the war of the Revolution, by the cry of beef ! beef! beef? Away then, away, with all divisions. forever. Let us have no desiguation but that of demo- crat ; and away, too, with those who would old or breed new causes of division for personal ren- dizement. The democracy, with such a mission before it, can afford to bury the rivalries. and jealousies, and re- sentments, and prejudices of its cliques and leaders in a common and resurrectionleas grave. It reposes for hope upon its principles and not upon its temporary agencies. It is of little moment to the toiling masses whether Smith ig upon a committee, Jones a boo! fev Brown a chairman, Lamb a secretary, or Lyon a candidate, or what particu- lar individual represents thom in the Senate, or Assembly, or in Congress, or even who administers the laws at State or the National Capitol, provided the trust is faithful- ly executed. But it is of the highest m it that the democracy bear rule so that the prin of tho be maintained, and that none but those true and faithful to’ the constitution bo clothed with important public Fesponsibilities; those who, in the true Benue Or edusvoTed > WHT SU DY Ute WuBtivutUN dud up- hold all and si its provisions and ol lettfr and in the spirit, in practice as well as in theory; those who do not fear to do right lest selfishness, and ti- io fete may charge them with ‘wrong; those who can be neither corrupted, nor seduced nor awed by fear, nor tempted by ambition, but who will truly it, and. tain, and reflect at all times and all occasions, the great principles of the party which confided to their integrity a trust so sacred. The demo- cracy demands, and will select men when a great crisis is impending, who can stand to the watch in storm and ‘ag well as in the calm and placid set—those who can id the helm firmly when the ocean casts up her mire and dirt—when lightnings flash and thunders roar—when waves dash, and winds beat, and danger threatens, as fearlesely a8 when all is peace, When the storm has howled itself to rest and all is serene and beautiful, there ig never a lack of manly di , and the vaunts of sun- shine patriotism quite often throw the sons of real ser- vice in the shade. It is no apology for the true democrat that the party in designating its agents has failed in his judgment to take thom from its best personnel, or that the ‘selection was partial, or might have been improved, or ‘that just claims or pretensions were overlooked or disre- ded, or that the action of the party passed be- yond or fell short of the line of true wisdom, or that some other time or mode would have been better. If such criticisms were just the objections would be of a temporary character, and the remedy for such and all kindred grievances would rest in forward and not in retrograde movements; it would be soonest found in forming a more complete and perfect union of the rank and file, and not in sowing seeds of irritation, discord and strifey and yielding to a commun enemy. If any one whose expectations have not been answered is inclined to ventilate his complaints over committees, or conven tions, or delegation; or candidates chosen, let him re- member the rebuke of the Irish officer to the soldier who was howling 80 noisily on tho battle field, whore both were wounded, “Shut your po'sy head! ’Do you suppose no one is kilt but yourself!” The support of democratic measures and "¢ advancement and success of its benign principles are worthy of the noblest ambi- tion. To cavil, and dispute, and divide, and disorganize, over the selections of agents and placemen, and leave the defence of the citadel, is a position too humiliating for the contemplation of an honorable. mind. The power rests With the masses—those who deserve will receive their sympathy, and they will demand of their agonts, at all times, a faithful execution of their respective trusts, and enforce obedience to their behests, and woe be to him who disregards the magdate. Tho ticket nomi: nated by the Democratic State Convention is one of the highest order for ¢apacity, integrity and ex- perience, Which hag ever been’ presented ur te support of the people of the Empire ‘State. Judge. yun23D, Comptroller Church, Attorney General Tremain, State Engineer Richmond, ‘and Treasurer Vanderpoel, have proved their respective fitness and fidelity by their dis- charge of duties through a term about to expire; and Mr. Jones for Secretary of State, Skinner for Canal Commis- sioner, Elderkin for Prison Inspector, rnd Lewis for Clerk of the Court of Appeals, have proved themselves worthy, in the discharge of various responsible trusts, and are equally entitled to the public confidence with those who are renominated. _ Every name upon this ticket was presented with a unanimity unknown in the history of: nominating conventions. A unanimity as flattering to the nominees as honorable to the generous sentiment of tho. Convention, and an earnest of the first fruits of a cordial union and a presage of victory. Let then all the struggles in the democratic party be hereafter laudable competition in seeing who shall do most fto heal divisions and heart- burnings which should be forgotten—most to rally the voters and fill up the ranks—most to push on the column and sustain the principles. of the party by the election of this ticket—most to restore complete democratic ascen- dency—most to blot out the pernicious and accursed debt policy, the bitter fruits of republican rule. It was the standing order of Napoleon that when- ever lis marshals or generals heard a cannon- ading which made the grotmd tremble, the: be by ita eee to eS Rate, of action witl all possible speed—to take part ‘in the battle. Grouchy, though within hearing of Waterloo, with a large and fresh division of the army, neglected to obey this order, and one of the greatest battles the world ever ;saw was, Decause of the neglect, lost to Napoleon, and the whole destiny of Europe thereby changed. We now hear, a8 the struggle rae in New York, the distant roar of can- non booming for the great battle of 1860—drums are beating, bugles are sounding, steeds are prancing, bayo- nets are yeasty and platoons are inarching—the’ earth will soon tremble to its centre with the shock of the ter- rible onset. The “irrepressible conflict” over the cOhsti- tution is soon to be set in array, and to be lost or won for the residue of the nincteenth century. Let every demo- crat, whether belonging to the horse or foot—whether leader or follower—whether at the head of a division or a private soldier, repair to the field and help to turn the tide of victory. Let no democratic forces ref to march to the scene of action, for any causo of grievance, real or imagivary, lest the cause of sectionalism and disunion thereby triumph.
