Rally Round the Polls, GirlsDown With the Monster Man—The Sixteenth Amendment— Up With Down-Trodden Woman. A delightful variety of full-fedged, half-fledged and entirely unfledged advocates of woman’s suf- frage met last evening at avenue D for the purpose of—what? Miss ANTHONY, the Great Mogul(ess) of feminine Tartary, with a combative toss of her delicately chignoned head, undertook to explain the object of this meeting to the satisfaction of the incon- gruous assemblage. Delegates were needed to the State Convention at Saratoga, and If the Seventh dis- trict desired it should be worthily represented, (Cries of “Yes, yes” from the appreciative hearers.) ‘She then read from her newspaper the call for the aforésaid convention, and informed her audience that for twenty years she and her strong-minded sis- ters Lad been striving $. Jain the ballot, but so far their efforts had not produced the desired effect, and with a pathetic sigh the lady turned to the fifteenth amendment. Druankards, loafers and ignorant, vicious villains, they who only hap- pen to be of the masculine gender, will, by the passing of this amendment, be made politically, and as a natural consequence considered socially, the superiors of honest, virtuous, intelligent, temperate females. But the cause she had advo- cated so earnestly was progressing, and as evidence of tus she directed the attention of the Eleventh and Seventeenth warders to the forlorn Bohemians of her own sex, who, with fixea eyes, pencils in hand, patiently watted her utterances. (Loud and prolonged appiause,) The lady then expressed her gladness at thus pleasant state of afatrs, and begged to introduce Miss Upham, This lady orator commenced by describing the “Woman Suffrage Association,” which had been formed for the purpose of disseminating the most beauuful idea which had ever entered} American politics—the rignt of woman to the ballot, To the poor, who were politically oppressed, it would give protection; to the rich, representacion as well as taxation.

The Sait Against Ex-Surveyor Wakeman— The Parden and Appointment Bureaux Ven- tilated—Interesting Testimony and Docu- ments. ‘This well known old litigation, which has been dragging through the courts for upwards of a year, having been amended in the pleadings 80 as to include Mr. Latting, the business part ner of the defendant, is still om investigation before John B. Haskin, as referee, under an order of the Supreme Court. ‘The case, it will be remembered, involves the defendant, Abram Wakeman, formerly Surveyor of the port under the administration of President Lincoln, as having re- ceived from the plaintiff, John N, Eitel, a money compensation for services rendered tn procuring a pardon for him (fitel) tor ap offence alleged to have been commitied by him during the war; and this suit is brought Jor the recovery of the money so paid, Yesterday the cross-examination of Mr. Lucius E. Chittenden was continued by Mr. Smith, counsei for the plaintif, and the following are the chief points of the evidence elicited:— Mr. Chitenden testified that he only continued in the employ of the government about three weeks, and believed that he received his appointment from the Secretary of War. He could not state positively, but spoke from recollection. The appommtment was received some time in the month of February, 1505, and was discontinued on account of a disagreement between witness and Colonel Baker, im reference to some of his transactions. The only notice given Was tiat he would not go on with the business, which was, he thought, given to General Chapman, who had charge of the business, and with whom witness had correspondence, Witness could not re- member when te first saw Mr. Latting, buc believed 1t Was soon after he went to New York, By soon, he meant within a day or two. He should like to ix the date and to inform the court how he came to go there, and what time the appointment referred to Was received, with reference to the time he weal to Colonel Baker’s ofice. Counsel for plaintiff said that the only thing he wished to Hx was the dates, Witness replied that he could fx the dates by sending in the appointment itseil. Mr. Chittenden stated, in answer to a question whether he had a commission, that he had a ietter many gen 4 Washington; could not tell them in his Dossession; he could not state that he had any recollection about kt the papers; he went there, took up @ number of cases, went over the evidence and. tlien went on to Washington and ere advice about the transactions; he did not ow but he had @ cash account that would show the date he went to Washington; did not remember anything else, and did not know but thought he could produce that paper; recollected some papers he did not see there; those papers he could only describe from recollection, which was not distinct as tode- tails; remembered some receipts which had the names of parties claimed vo have been written 4 Eitel; those purported to be the receipts enlisted parties for bounty; there was ‘azo. @ book or books from a receivi ship to which some of the men enlisted by Ettel were sent; he had no knowledge of those papers ever havi been separated from the papers in Eitel’s case, an supposed they had-been forwarded with the others to Washington; if witness had believed he had pa- pers forged by Hite! im his possession he would have taken great care ol them; it wag not true, as im- plied, that those papers were in his possess 3 pa- pers in the office at the Astor House were in the possession and under the control of Colonel Baker, and he did not have them; he did not select a portion of the papers in the Eitel case from Baker's papers and send to Washington, but as he had stated he carried or caused to be sent the papers in those cases to Washington, among which, as ne recol- lected, were the papers In Eitel’s case; he supposed they had ail been sent or carried there. ‘The hearmg was then adjourned. STA! ENT OF GEO, H. PETERS. I have been acquainted with Captain Goin about twenty years; he was a member of the firm of Poole, Pentz & Goin, engaged m the suipping business, £ Was clerk to them, he firm carried on business at 39 Burling shp. Captain Goin left it and received an appointment in the bavy and commenced recranr in South street. After remaining some time will the firm I left and commenced recruiting myself for the merchant service. Captain Goin was then at 173 South street. I had been there two months when Captain Goin came to the same place and carried on the naval recruiting there, He was removed from the naval service two months after. Know John N. Eitell and George Goin, a reputed nephew of Goin. While I was there they were understood to be a frm of substitute brokers in the names of Eitell & Goin. I have seen thein transact business as such. I do not know whether Eitell & Goin had better facilities than others in their line of business. When Goin went out I joined Eiteli in the business, continu- ing about two months. Cannot say thé num- ber of men out in, about fifty 1 should Say; our net profits were, I should say, $1,200; we suffered losses to the amount of $2,300; there was no arrangement to divide profits with others. Geol Goin isnot married and is an orphan; I am bi brother-in-law; he had some property, not over $15,000. Ido not know why he left the city, but saw him on the 22d February last in Philadelphia at No. 243 South street, where there is a snipping omice. r know not where George Goin kept his account trom the Secretary of War, and that the facts of his appointment were as follows:—Some oilicer of the department wanted him to go there and look over Baker’s business to see what he was doing. He went on trom Washington, and then, without an; interference of his, wile he was doing tlus, it was suggested at Washington that it was better he should act in some official capacity, and then a letter was sent appointing him Judge Advo- cate or Assistant Judge Advocate. He did not want it to appear in cour: that it was a position w luch came of his own seeking, and one that he was ever proud of, There were numerous charges against Mr. Eitel in the papers which have been presented here. Affidavits do not make the charges; they state the facts which, if true, would be evidence of the plaintii? having been (nde of them. ‘The papers shown contain evidence tending to show that Mr, Fitel had committed those offences. They do not make specific charges against him, As to the charges against Mr. Eitel there were letters written vo the War Department, but the witmess did not know of any specific ones made against him except as contained in the documents before the court. ‘The witness was here handed a bundie of papers from the District Attorney’s office, and requested to select any one coniaining charges against Mr. E:tel, and selected an affidavit from the Mayor of Korden- town, N. J. (exhibit No. 5, appended), remarking, “You make me say all the time exhibit charges; 1 do not mean to say that I have said that the papers contain evidence to show that be was guilty of offences.” (Exlibit No. 5 was then read in evidence.) Witness then, at the request of plaints counsel, selected another paper, the statement of William Reagan (extibit No. %, appendea), wilich was also read in evidence, Examination continued—Captain Goin was an officer, but do not know if in the regular army or volunteers; it was @ piaee for enlisting men, and the oMcers had charge ol the recruiting station, Witmess here selected the statement of Mrs. E, Goin (exuibit No. 4, appended), which was read in evidence. This is the Wile, or supposed to be the wiie, of Captain Goin, who had charge of the ren- dezvous, Witness stated that he did not cail these charges, but papers that implicated Eitel, ‘the statement of Patrick Brannagan (exhibit 6, ap. pended), was read in evidence. Witness was handed exhibits Nos. 4and 6, and stated that the former Was in the handwriting of a c.erk of Colonel Baker; but althongh that of the latter was fauniiar to him could not name the writer, it was that of one of Colonel Witness then produced a state- ree H. Peters (exhibit No. 1 ap- pended), which was read, and then stated that he wished to say that, upon referring to these papers, he should think that he was there longer than three weeks, He had stated the time to be three weeks; but, on examining the dates on the documents, tought he must been there over four. Questioned by Judge Emott—There were papers there that he had a distinct recollection about waich were not here, but only one or two papers of that class. Examination continued by ex-Judge Smith— He found one paper which showed a division of the profits between Eitel and Peters, whose statement was given there. (Exhibit No. 7, at foot.) There were also a number of enlistment certificates, in some of which Mr. Eitel appeared to have acvea as commissioner. (Witness selected a number of papers.) Those papers tended to show that Eitel assumed to act in an official capacity as a repre- sentative of the government, as a comunissioner. Witness eee ae. at paper handed to e him), said not know Mr. Kitel’s handwriting. ‘They were from enve- lope No. 8 with @ separate band about them and were there the day before. He was there atew weeks, ana after having a di ment with Baker lett Baker’s office and soon aiter went to Tar- rytown. When leaving ceased all connection with the office. Thought he recollected seeing the papers (enlistment) betore seeing them at the Testrict At- torney’s oMice. Thought they sent to the proper ae- partment for those papers, and also for the books of some receiving snip which @ large num- ber of men were furnishea by Eitel & Goin. Was certain they had tiie papers there m which Mr, Eite’s name appeared as commissioner he thougnt those were the ones. In answer to the question whether he had seen tae papers until seen in the District Attorney's office, witness stated that his recojlection was as distinc! with regard to those as the other papers; he distinctly remembered of the other papers spoken of, aside trom looking at them; the aifidavits of the Mayor of Bordentown, the statement of Mrs. Gom, the statement of l’eters and the statement and amidavit of O’Reagan. In an- swer to questions about visiting Baker's ofice avout the middie of duly, and leaving after four weeks with- out retarning, and the inaking of a paper (Exhibit No. 4, at foot) by we Mayor of Bordentown on te Sist of Maren, the witness said:—Upon going to the odice he found the whole of Baker's proceedings had been conducted Im what he called a loose man- ner; several of those papers were in the form of statements not sworn to, and in some cases not signed by the parties; he required Baker, before he would make ahy recommendations in those cases, to have the statements verified by the oaths of the par- ties, and several were veriied; he remembered the paper of ‘tuompson’s distincuy; Thompson was at the office and conversed with tiin, and the writ- ten stavement was before him; he supposed that was signed and verified by oath after tus departure; ne was hot certain that he forwarded a paper sworn to wo Washington; ne forwarded papers, and sup- posed the statement of Thompson Was among them; he forwarded or carried them; witness did not state that the ground of the dificuity with Baker was that those things were not veritied; if they say that dault Was found in Colonel Baker by me It was not in reference to this matter, nor in reference to the papers betng verified; witness did not know that he round fault, but he required the papers to be veritied before he acted upon them; he could not say wos, if he saw the statement of Thompson before him at Baker's office, he did not send itto jpn thought Mr. Thompson @ reliable, respectable man, out coukl not tell his age beyond that he was a middle-aged man, ana he had never seea him except im connection with these matters; could not teil without looking at the enlistment papers the dates of any of them; was certain that he forwarded or carried Mfs. Goin's statement to Washington. Witness here was closeiy questioned in detail about this paper, bat could not remember specifically that he took it or sent it to Washington, He would have to make the sare an- ewer with regard to each paper; could not say if he forwarded Mannagan’s statement to Washington; as to the papers, witiess was unable to state whether there Was any fraud in putting coutmnissioner to them (the enlistment paper as he knew nothing of the course pursued by the parties; tt was claimed at the tine tat Mr. Biter had the control of the South street re! wous aud held a ss to the ublic as having an official relation pF saw evidence of fraud in this; there were recruitiog OMicers employed for the service, witi provost marsiais and deputy provost imarshals ; witness had not pat any marks on the papers, but recognized one of them, the certificate being in lis handwriting; | do not recollect the time of day nor the lengta of my first meerview with Latting, and canpot tell at which interview I gave hun informa- tion; Eremember telling hit [would examine the papers. Mr. Smith said that he wanted to get at the fact whether tnformation was promised by the wit- ness on his first interview With Mr. Latting or not. Witness replied that he did not recollect refusing to give information; Mr. Latting, after the first in- terview, cailed upon me very soon; he could not tell the exact time; he called very fre- quently, so much so that it impressed m he could not tell whether he gave him any iforma- tion at the second interview; could not teli how long he Was there; at all of those interviews there was considerable conversation; there was nothing that enabled him to remember the jength of the time con- sumed; he did not remember the date of the arrest of Kitei; it waa bis impression that Bitel had been arrested when be Went Were, but he did not dia- nor the money he was worth when the firm dissolved.
