B TRE GREAT LIBEL SUIT. Becond Day of the Legal Tournament, —_— Judge Pierrepont Opens for the Defence. SHARP EXCORIATION OF MR. OPDYKE, ne Aceuser Made Out te be the Accused. The Develepments Relative te Gun and Sheddy Contracts, ‘Whe Friendship of Cpadyke and MELTING APPEALS TO THE JURY, oe, &e., &eo. At the opening of the Supreme Court yesterday morning ‘Were was a rush for seats, and couneel, witnesses, officers fand epectstors ail rushed and huddled in together. Every ‘@vattable spot was soon occupied by the crowd anxious to Bear the opening of Judge Pierrepont, which occupied ‘Waal learned gentleman three hours anda half, He stated ‘Whe substance of the evidence that would be given, and was terribly severe in his comments upon the plaintiff in @onnection with the extortiouate profits be exacted from ‘the goveroment in his gun and other shoddy contracts. Jadge Pierrepont, on opening for the defence, said he ‘Degan to feel ike Hamlet, that there 1s special providence tm the affairs of meu; that we are each but little atoms Boating down the great river of time, borne on its rosist- Jess current without the slightest choice on our part as ‘to the isle or the bank on which we may be thrown; that Were is a divinity that shapes our ends, rough hew them Bow we will. Ho had never struggled to avoid the trial of ®@ cause before, He had striven with all the power and akill of which he is possessed to avoid the trial of ums @aure. He had boped that it never would have been ‘Drought to trial, and through the friends of the opposing party, he had done everything that he could to avoid the ayy scandal, the disgracofal exbibition of the proceed. of public men, which this trial must needs Present. Mr. Weed said it was a public duty, end he dit not shrink from it. We did. He (Mr. Piorrepont) bad begun to feel that he was a eoward iv his own esteem from his reluctance to come $#to court berore the community to do his part ic jaying Bare one of the most astounding frauds and disgraceful Yuatters that ever came before the attextion of auy civi- Heed people in any land. In the progress of every nation the time giways conjes when high corruption in high Foes becomes so glaring and outrageous that it has to exposed. Such was the jhistory of Eogland. fis ‘was itafier the great south bubbie bad exiloded. ££ he would undertake to say that never did Lord siield sit op a trial so important in the consequences which were to follow in its course as were to be developed % thiscase, This case will irom this time forth re. tive a public notoriety and a public importance which would undertake to say bad never been equalled ip She Listory of the nation. And he agreed with the emi ment counsel.who bad opened the case for the prosacu- ‘oo; ior he was of Cninion that that gentieman haa not ‘ever estimated it when he spoke of its importance in tts ened view aud irfiuence. 1¢ cannot be overestimated ‘Was as impossible to prevent the trial of this case as %& was impossible to prevent the rebellion $n this country: a impossible as the full of Fort Sumter. It was one @f those things that mast come to pars. We had Feached a degrec of degradation in onr city, among its Bigh men, that could be borne no longer, and something west bi to oxhibit tin istrue character. That @emetbing did occur, and that something always arises ‘eat of the passions. the violence and the selfishness of ‘the actors tbemselver. Such was the history of similar @Bvibitions io England It was the same in Fraoce. It ‘be same here, and we are this day speaking of it. Iu there was a great revolution m France, aud the ‘ing was criven from his reaim. His government was oartarees, g0d uot one of Louis Puilippe’s children ever Feturned to it. The .reatest political phiioropher that bas ‘ever lived in avy age—a statesman of creater (oresight ‘than soy of bis coutempor: —was then 4 member of ‘the French Chamber of Deputies, aud, rising in his place that solemn office, uttered a few memorable words. aid that the reason why private morals were deteriorated = was because pudlic morals had wousiy been invaded; because selfishness had the rule of private life, It bad een sald that there were two kinds of morality—one fer pubiic and the other for private itfe. But, continued the philosopher, a change ie taking Place in privace morais, and this is the regult of the change which is aiso going On in padlic morals, He spoke without 0: may, wiibout party spirit. He was speaking of men egatust whom he bid no personal enmity. His profound and seitied conviction was that public m.cals were be- Coming corrupt, acd that this public corruption would Dring npoo the nation a new revolution. De Tocqueville Was hissed by every man why heard bim, and in thirty days the King wus criven from the throue; not a vestige ef it remains, and the sons of that monarch ars now miles and wanderers through the ¢ Judge Pierre.

Aine & por iad, He attained great influence and pol: Mr. Attained great wealth and political power, also. Mr. Weed has always conserved and cherished a deep-seated affection for those who helped bim slong in the world. The other bas kicked down the Iadder by bso he ascended. Mr. Updyke made a great eal of money in bis business, and, having made a great deal of money, he wanted some honor. He was elected to the Legislature, and went to Albany. Mr. Weed lives there, and is eminent in political power. Mr. Opdyke w © then straggting upwards, He had been a democrat, Das had come over to the a. party, and then he songut the acquaintance of Mr, We This you will bear from Mr. Opdyke himself, for care cannot fail to put bim on th Mr. Opdyke mingled with this desire for political honor a feeling which he had learned in his e@aslier days og which in bis case had become intensiliea; eeiing which, as man grows cld, passes from emter- prise to avarice, He introduced into the Legisiature a Dill to repeal the laws against usury. Mr. Weed saw Opdyke and said that was not right. He argued thus:— You know very well that poor people when they are in difficulty will, in the hope of getting out of their troubles, borrow money at any amount of iaterest, and thus they would be ruined. Opdyke said it waa botier (or poor men that there should be no usury taws; but thatevery man should be allowed to take as much interes! as he could get, The matter became public and was discussed in all the newspapers. In due course it came to the at- tention of a working man, a silversmith, who very per- tinently asked how it jag that, if the laws against usury were repealed, interest would be brought down—bow it was that the interest on money had never got down below seven per cent, when there was no law to prevent it going lower! Is there any solitical philosopher who can apswer that? The usury jaws were ropealed in lilinow 2nd in Obio; but the peopie Of those States soon found that the usurers and mont y lenders were eating out the vitality of those States, and the laws repealing tose statutes have been to their turn repeaicd. Mr. Weed came out in his paper and de- nounced the bill as an attempt to interiere with the liber- ties of poor men. Not long since a violent article appeared in the Heraup written by Mr. Opdyke, Mr. Weed ,was at the Astor House, and Mr. Opdyke went there to him and excused himseif for having published article. He said it was ali a mistake, and hoped u 1 would be forgotten, and that things would again g° Ov harmoniously between them. There now seemed to be an end of the difficulty, The quarrel was appareatly buried. The two geutiemen then wevt into their private apartments, where no other person was admitted, and there they ke confidentially of their Plans for carrying the State in the next election—a con- fidential conversation between themselves alone. Next morpiug this conversation, with e groat many exaggera- tions, appeared in the Hxkatp—every word of it. From that moment Mr. Weed camo to the conclusion that be would speak to that mu no more. though he came again to excuse himself fer this second act. From that time this condition of feeling arose—this estrangement be- tweea the two men; it bas continued to this hour, and wil! contipue to the grave. ihe learned counsel then Plained ali the facts concerning revered and houored Archbishop Hughes, with Mr Thur- low Weed, to the courts of Europe, to represent this country sad prevent that foreign intervention which threatened to recognize the rebe.lions South among na- tious. ibese two distinguished men saw all the crowned heads and ali the men io power in England and im }rauce, and they succeeded 1o averting ® danger which was every day ex- pected. On Mr. Weed’s return home the Common Coun- cil of New York voted him the fresdom of thecity, and invited him toa public banquet im appreciation of hi services. Mr, Opdyke was the Mayor. And what did do” He vetoed the bill, and said that there were rea- sous besides those henumed why he re(uced his asseot toit. The Common Council and Alklermen were just; yee bad torent oa the claim made by Farley for $109, 700.

We believe there isno book om Peru written by any American observer and from an American point of view.
