‘THE ERIE CONTINUED FROM EIGHTH PAGE. grown tired of listening to the use of expressions such as fave been Induiged in by counsel—calling men tricky, dishonest and audacious. A line of ar- genet, of this character consumes much of the me of the Court unnecessarily and etd Mr. SOUTHMAYD.—I have tried, may it please Your Honor, to contine myself to the leg points in the Cause, and I think 1 have succeeded. ARGUMENT OF MI. BEACH. Mr. BrAcd, of counsel for the Erie Railway Com- ny, argued the case on their behalf, He said: he argument of my learned friend (Mr. Southmayd) svems (vo me to be excessively unprofessional and quite anprecedented. He has chosen to repeat his entire argument previously presented to the Court ou tie merits of this case. and to renew the epithets and calumnies which have been heretofore fully @nuswered and refuted. I will not pursue him through that line of argument, nor will [ attempt to disabuse the public mind, which counsel seems 80 desirous of impressing, by making any ex- tended denials of those oft-uticred imputa- tions. ‘They have formed the staple of | the Feutleman’s argument in this and other cases from he Very commencement of the Erie litigation, He Bppears to live inan atmosphere which does not nilow the possibility of an idea that his adversaries may be occasionally animated by aed and just motives. The condemnation which he has 80 bit- terlv expressed on many occasions against the Erie company necessarily reflects upon their counsel, If their course has been characterized by tricks and devices and by a plan to avoid the jurisdiction and orders of the Court their counsel Must Lecessarily be privy tothat purpose. Ihave a iong acquaint- ance with this Court, and 1 ieel sure that the Court will not adopt so unjust and so unde- an aspersion. I ovject to the stare- Mr. Southmayd that Mr. Gould in relation to this English stock has put in his pockets $650,000, Tassert to the Court, upon the aflidaviis and proofs now before 1t, that there never was a more baseless and unfounded caluinny ‘uttered to the public ear, It stands undisputed upon the record that whatever proceeds were de- rived fr rf the stock which was pronounced fraudu- Tent and void from the bonds upon which that stock ‘was Issued every dollar of it went into the Erie Kati- ‘way Company, and it was further in proof that every dollar of it had been expended for purposes for Aviich convertible bonds under the laws of the State ol New York could be issued, The only contested ‘point arises trom the unwarranted and repeated ex- pression of my learned friend that Mr. Gould fraud- culently and improperly abstravted the money from gome person. Every dollar of thts $650,000 received from the stock has been converted by the Erie road 2 its benefit. With regard to the olatm of the Eng- ish stockholders, Ido not think there will be any necessity to send a commission to England. Coun- gel conciuded by stating that that, however, was a Matter within the discretion of the Court; yet, at the sume time the stock should not be at once Sanded over to Englisimen while there were Amer ican ciaimants to the same stock who had a right to a hearing in reierence to 1. Those gentiemen ‘were entitled to what protection the Court coula give them, They had a right to put in their claim, ud this was a privilege which the Court would at east accord them, ARGUMENT OF MR. HOAR. Mr. Hoan, inreply to Mr. Beacn, observed that his argument would be very brief, and that he Would not be drawn into the utterance of any in- temperate peg iy by the circumstances which #0 much excited associate, Mr, Southmayd, In his opinion, so lar as Mr. Gould was concerned, it was uudoubted that that gentleman would walk in the ath of rectitude only so bag 3 as the Court held bun irmiy in its grasp, and at the first opportunity he ‘would cudeavor to evade, and, if possible, defy its Buthority. The conduct of Mr. Gould in relation to ‘this transaction of the thirty thousand shares of Stock was somewhat simular to the conduct of the man who found another had gone into a bath, who took nis clothes and walked otf, leaving (Bum incapable of coming out of the water without a ‘violation of decency. His possession of this stock ‘was obtained by faise pretence. He was charged ‘with illegal interference with property in the pus- Session Of the Court through the hands of its re- ceiver, and the evidence in that regard clearly estabiished the allegations made against him. Counsel adverted to the circumstances relating to the over issue Of 30,000 shares of Erie stock and Sheir registration with the Farmers’ Loan aud Trust Company on the basis of the cancellation of the ftock of Heath and Raphael, and contended that Che only pretext for that overissue was the two convertible bonds for $3,000,000, and which bonds it ‘Was the intention of the Erie Company and Gould to dmmedtately convert into cash and not leave out- Standing as bonds, He maintained that the restitu- tion of the 30,000 shares of stock to Heath and Ra- piael, under the order of the Court, was not suim- clent for the purpose of justice; and the further is- Fue of 0,000 shares sought by Gould to be accom- plished was unjust, in conferring upon him Proper ty to which he had no legitimate right, and which depreciated, to a certain extent, the value of the ‘property of the shareholders, All they demanded ‘Was that the exact relations, so tar as this property .of Heath and Raphael was concerned, should ve « festorea to its pristine condition without having it depreciated by an over issue of stock. ARGUMENT ON THE INJUNCTION. Mr. SOUTHMAYD opeved the argument for the mn- fui jou by reading @ large number of papers, the contents of which haye been heretofore published during the progress of this litigation, Mr. SHERMAN, for Erle, replied and read aMidavits - of Mr. Gould and Mr. Morrissini, the auditor of the Erie Railway Company. ‘Ihe aiidavit of the latter stated that all the moneys, the proceeds of the two convertible bonds for $3,000,000, had been used for ‘the purposes of the Erie road. Mr. D. D. Fiztp summed up the argument for Erie, and strongly contended that it was well settied that a railway company, having exhansted its capi- tal stock, was entitied to issue convertible bonds: He read some authorities to the Conrt on this point. At the rising of the Court at a quarter-nast seven + ovelock, thelearned gentleman had not concinded Uls argument, which will be resumed this morning. APPEAL FOR THE POPE. Address of Four French Bishops to the N tional Assembly Praying for the Re-cstab- linhiment of the Temporal Power of the Pope. The following French bishops have addressed a petition to the National Assembly praying for the + Fe-establishment of the temporal power of the Pope. To THe Dervurtes OF THE NATIONAL ASSEMBLY :— GENTLEMEN—In the face of the sacrilegious crimes of the Jlahian government agalust the dominions, and even agninat + the person of the Sovereign Pontiff, the whole Cathotc world ts moved with just indignation. The minds of good men are ‘aMiicted at the sight of the evila which weigh upon the Church; and still greater misfortunes threaten to fall upon her if ihe revolution is allowed to accomplish the work of destruction which it pursues with such evil Intentions. ‘The fpollation of the Sovereign Ponti’ and his, captivity ithe Vatican are an outrage upon liberty of consc.enee. This siate of things fs an insult to the re'igious sentiments of the population and atitutes, at the same time, a great perli for society. ¢ Archbishop of Auch, and the bishops of Aire, Tarbes and Bayonne, are profound'y convinced that from the re- eatablisnment of the rights of the Holy See will spring the re- ment of order in our poorly shaken society, and they jeat and express their wishes in their owu names and in ¢ name of the faithful of their dioceses :— We ask you, gentiemen, to raise your voices in the name of sight and justice, which have been'so shamefully violated ‘the person of their most august representative on earth ask yon to protest against the indignities inflicted upon “the bead of the Church, and to remind 19 Ttaltan government of the respect die to treaties. We be- eech you, morvover, to invite the government to act in Concert with the foreign Powers in order to re-establish the fovereiga Pontiff in a condition which is eusentia: for his erty of action and for the government of the Catholte ‘Churea.

THE SCHUSTZsNFEST. Jones’ Waod Under a Cloud. ‘The heavy rain yesterday morning cast a shade of gioom over the broad, good-natured-jooking faces ofthe German shooters, who had assembled in al the glory of slouched bat and feathers and clad in suits of Lincoln green. Old Pluvius was evidently out of sorts wlth himself and the world, and un- kindly ventea his spleen on the German host, As might have been expected, the result was an almost otal absence of coquettish nats and KILLING BONNETS which give half the interest and all the charm to assemblages of ail kinds, lt ig nov too much to say that no reunton, save and except always a quiet bachelors’ party m the chambers of some confirmed views gargon, is sul- ferable without the presence of the fair creatures, who are at once the joy and the vexation of our lives. Jones’ Wood seemed to feei the absence of the ladies and looked as miserable and woe-begone asarojected lover. But here and there sauntered some DOUGHTY DUTCHMAN, armed cap ayiv with a strange, heavy-looking rifle, to which was affixed, forthe most part, a pe- cullar Kind of rest that recalled forcibly the old musketoon of the Middle Ages and tts cumbrons rest. Indeed, the fat, well-to-do presence of the Schuetzen men, with thetr half citizen, half swash- backler alr, gave one of an imaginative turn of mind good ground for speculation as to what THE OLD BURGHER GUARD were uke—good, solid men benind a wali, but a trige heavy in the matter of manwuvre.

Fier motive power con- cylinder and 14-inch stroke, suriace condenser, As their name suggests, these engines, which were con- structed at the Pelamater Lron Works, are of & class that possess A MOST DESIRABLE ADVANTAGE over the others, in condensing the steam, and thus furnishing @ constant supply of the purest and most wholesome quulity of fresh water, instead of Wasting the costly vapor by the act of that nerve- of steam whene' dispense with ts usefulness in the cylinder, The engines in the Day Dream are also furnished with apparatus which enables them to work with high or low pressure, aud to be in this respect seli-acting when by accident or other- wise It becomes desirable to change, This yacht’s ships and the gailey and crew’s quarters are alt. The cabin, whose decorations are not yet finished, 1s fitted up with every possible convenience for the com- fort and enjoyment of its occupants, and when ready for them will be an apartment of great beauty, not to say magnificence, Every other portion of the vessel will be in keeping, and nothing is being neg- lected or will be forgotten to make this boat a verit- able “day dream’ of luxury and splendor. It will want no convenience which any first class city manston, with “all the modern improvements,” now possesses, The Day Dream left her mooring at the doceot the Continental Works, Greenpomt, at half-past ton o’clock yesterday morning, for her trial trip up into the Sound. She had on board her owner, Mr. Wil- tam H. Aspinwall, General Lloyd Aspinwall, Mr. Joun Aspinwall, Dr. L. N. Smith, naval architect; Mr. George Keynold Superintendent of Delamater Iron Wo Mr. Warten E. iil, manager of the Continental Works, and her captain, Mr. Rawson, The weathor was anything but favor- able, A sharp and cailling wind blew from the northwest, and with that came @ thick, soaking, place of shelier in the vessel was occupied by car- penters, painters and plumbers, was VERY UNPLEASANT, 10 SAY THE LEAST. Though she had every inch of her 600 square yards try her temper under bare poles. After leaving the Gock she steamed sancily up the East River against a strong ebb tide and right in the eye of the wind, and acquitied herselt very satisfactorily, When off the old maniac’s fortifications on the upper end of Biackweil's island, however, the steering gear begun to show itself a little out of order, and wine endeavoring to avoid 2 collision with a banded feet of canal boats which were being towel down the river, the Day Dream hecame ‘entirely uncontrol- able, rounded the island “on her own hook” and headed down tue river on the other side. After steaming about for a considerable tame in Kip’s Bay she was brow:ht back to her dock, where she ar- rived at @ quarter past twelve o'clock, Here br. Smith went below to examine the steering apparatus and discovered A LITTLE DISARRANGEMENT, which, he said, a couple of carpenters coula repair dina stort time. The latter were soon on hand, and while they were engaged in applying the needed remedies Mr. Aspinwall and nis guests amused themselves by an inspection of the arrangements which his steward had made for ther comfort. At a quarter past two tne captain announced that all was right again, and the vessel was soon on her wav up the river @ second time, Both wind and tide were now much stronger against her than before, but she appeared to care nothing for either, She passed through Hell Gate im splendid style, the strong current being unable to push her more than twenty or twenty-five feet out of her course. She arrived off Fort Schuyler at twenty Minutes past three, and a little farther on tt was determined to try her 4) over & measured dis- tance. The result was, she accomplished TWO AND A QUARTEK MILES IN NINE MINUTES agamst wind and tide, which ts equivaient to fifteen knots an how. ‘This, considering her new eugines and the other inevitable disadvantages which @ newly built vessel has aiways to contend against, was considered highly satisfactory, When off City Island, a& distance of eighteen miles from her dock, she put about and slowly returned home on half steam, During this her tirst trip she certaiaiy exhipited most of the good quall- ties for which vesseis of her class are prized, Ac- complished judges have pronounced her a decided saccess, and her owner and nis friends were not only entirely satisfied with but quite en- thusiastic over her periormances yesterday. She made the eighteen miles on her return trom City Island to her dock in 1h, 20m, She will be complete- ly finished artistically aud supplied with ail her cabin luxaries and galley comforts by the end of the week, and wilt start on her first long trip, for New- port aud other places fast, on Monday or Tuesday next.

A breathing pause of about ten minutes was now allowed to the men, and as the was called it was easy lo see, by the expression of both tie men’s Laces, that they ineant business. Walking rapidly forward they took hold bythe collar and elbow, assuring themselves well of their grips.

The Sleepy Hollow tragedy, which for eighteen months past has been # never ending Subject for hovror and righteous denunciation among all sorts and conditions of men and women throughout Westchester county, was yesterday pronounced upon by the jury empanelled to try the case, and the verdict, in accordance with popular sentiment, gives the perpetrator over to the gallows, Unlesd executive clemency stays the hand of retributive Justice Shortly after nine o'clock in the forenoon expectae tion was on tiptoe In the village of White Plains when it became known that Justice Barnard had seut for the various officials whose presence was necessary for the opentug of the Court. As the jury had been out all night this announcement created quite a sensation, 16 Deiug ut once conne; the probabie result of their NOCTURNAL DELIBERATIONS, When the court nad be somewhat wearied-looking twelve, in whose hands Jay the momentous fate of the prisoner, filed m and took their allotted seats, The accused was also brought in, Wearing the same imperturbility of ex- pression which has characterized lis deportment | throughout the three trials through which he naa passed, The clerk haying calied the names of the jurors, Justice Barnard announced that he had received @ communication from the jury room usk- ing the Court if a verdict ot MURDER IN THE SECOND DEGREE would be accepted, In reply to this the Court ruled that the verdict rende must be either one of murder in the firstdegree or of acquittal On thie the Jury again retired, when the court room was shortly afierwards deserted by te crowd of anxious spectators, After an hour had elapsed the Court House bell rang out sonorously. amid a dreaching rain Storm, | indicating to, the hundreds who hed assembied im excited groups throuchont the village that the pro- tracted agony was nearly over. Notwithstanding. | the storin, the spacious court room was again throngea by A DEEPLY INTERESD AUDIENCE, the features of euch one revealing his or her appre ciation of the soiemn occasion, The Court and jury having resumed their seats, Buckhout was onee more conducted from the jai and noncnalanuy took his seat in front of the Bench, Ainid b-eathiesa siience the Clerk agata called the list of jurors, and when each nad answered to his name that ofticial asked, “Gentlemen of the jury, have you agreed upon @verdict:” All tuereupon arose and the collective reply was, “We have.” The clerk then sald, “Do you find the prisoner at the bar guilty or not guity?’? Here th reman stood up amid the op- pressive stilincss, and in somewhat tremulous toues answered, “We find the prisoner GUILTY OF MURDER IN THE FIRST DEGREE, and we recommend hint to mercy. Meanwhile buckhout maintumed his stoical indifference to the touching scenes of which he was the central figure, Not a facial muscle moved to imticate to the closess observer that hoe was in the slightest degree aifected by the verdict, Justice Barnara thea said:—Gen- tlemen of the jury, your recommendation to mercy 1 will forward to the Executive. You are now dis- charged.” At this stage of the proceedings the Bench retired to an ante-room for deliberation, and the prisoner, weartng HS ACCUSTOMED SMILE, was escorted pack to tne jail. In about an hour af. terwards the Judges re-entered the court room, and the prisoner Was once again brougat from the jail into the awful presence of the law which he had so ruthlessly violated. Although ail cyes were riveted upon the doomed man he appeared perfectly calm and unmoved, remaining ‘A CRIMINAL ENIGMA to the last. District Attorney Dykman having moved for sem tence on the prisoner, Justice Barnard directed buckhout to stand up, and asked bin if he had any- thing to say Why sentence of death should not now be passed upon him, Buckhou! quietly and respect- fully assumed a standing position, and looking dt- rectly at me Court replied tu a voice unaifecied by the shghtest emotion, “Noting.” THE DEATH SENTENCE. ‘The Court then acdressea the prisoner as folk | lows:—*Phe jury have convicted you of murder im the first degreel. ‘The penaliy which the law writes against thai erume 14 death, aud we have but to do our duty in pronouucing the sen- tence of the law upon you.

When the jury first retired to deitberate it was | founa that eleven were for conviction and one for acquittal. Lest any unjust suspicion should fall on an innocent party it may be proper to stute that the dissenting Juror resides im ine lower portion of the county. RIGTERS REPUDIATED, Meeting of the Irish Brigade Officers’ Ames ciation An adjourned meeting of the Irish Brigade OM- cers’ Association was held last evening at room No. 8 Astor House. Some Afteen of the Celtic war- riors who fought and bied to preserve the Union in {ts integrity sat around the apart- ment smoking and chatting on the late riots and the aspersions cast on the Irish name by the majority of the press. Some felt very sore on the subject and expressed themselves accord- ingly. At half-past eight the meeting organized with Captain Benson in the chair. Major Haverty, chauman of the commiitee on arrangements for a public meeting to be held under the auspices of the association, to express the true feelings of the Irish. people on the late 12¢h of Jaly disturbances, reported progress. Colonel! McGre moved that the report be accepted and the committee discharged, Colonel P. J. MERHAN opposed the amenament. He said that this matter was all-important to the Jrish people, and he for one would be sorry to see the committee discharged, as the effect of that action would be to wipe out all the committee had done, When he heard that the Irish Brigade Association had taken action in the matter he was rejoiced, knowing them to be men who were respected, whe had proved their devotion to their adopted couutry and who were free from the suspicion of simster designs or having axes to grind. As Irishmen they nad reached a crisis of grave import, The charge ol SYMPATHIZING WITH RIOT AND LAWLRESSNESS was made against them, and it was incumbent on them to repel that charge. Where, he asked, were the men raised to power and mfuence, eminence and wealth by the irisn people’ Did any one of them come forward when thelr people were unjustly assaied? Not one. It concern them to show that Irishmen were lovers 0! order and true liberty, and he believed the meeting held under the ai of the brigade would establish that fact and place the responsibulrty for the riat where it properly be- longed. Colonel Meehan’s speech was received with = rat favor by the association. When he sat down Captain Gosson rose tn nts usual nonchalant man- ner.
