Eager Mobs to Witness the Last Act. LEGAL LOGIC FOR THE DEFENCE Messrs. Hagner and Thomas Summing Up the Case. BURSTING THE STATE BUBBLE. Why the Accused Did Not Poison General Ketchum. ANNAPOLIS, Md., Jan, 18, 1872. As was anticipated, the court room was crowded this morning at ten o’clock, when the Court met, to ‘ts utmost capacity, Many persons came from Balumore and the surrounding country ot Meten to the eloquent speeches expecced of the advocates, and many were drawn hither by the knowledge that the last act in this fearful tragedy was rapidly approaching, and that to-day and to-morrow would be perhaps the last opportunities for gazing upon her whose mame has been echoed in every household tn tns vas’ country, and whose misfortunes will, at some Juvure time, furnish inspiration for the poet and in- exhaustible material for the novelist, The ladies formed a feature in the picture presented this morning, arrayed in all the elegance of fashion, and hountitully provided with all the ornaments and decorations likely to add @ lustre to their at- tractions, They were in marked contrast with the prisoner and her daughter. Mrs. Wharton and Miss Nellie took their accustomed seats a few Moments before the opening of the Court. They were plainly and simply dressed in deep black, a color which accorded well with the shadow which has fallen upon thelr lives, and their attitudes of wrapt attention to the words that fell from thelr attorneys evidenced the absorbing interest they could not but feel in tne closing efforts made to re- Neve their name from the stigma which had so sud- denly fallen upon it, A large number of distin- guished Jadies and gentlemen were present, among whom were Mr. Frea. Stone, Mr. Stevenson Archer, Mr. T. Sturgis Davis, Judge Inglenart, Mrs. Captain Waddell, Mrs. Oaptain Green and the ‘Wife and beautiful and accomplisned daughter of Attorney General Syester. The ladies, in their in- ense cagerness to secure seats, paid litie attention Zo conventionalities, They elbowed and edged their ‘way through the piebald assemblage which sur- rounded the railway with an independence and ae- termination which augured iJ for the opponents of sheir rights in the future, MR, HAGNBR’S CONCLUDING REMARKS. ‘Mr. Hagner, to whom has been entrusted the Presentation of the legal points of the defence to the jury. resumed his argument, which was com- Pleted fifteen minutes after one o'clock. It was ex- haustive, comprehensive, and pointed out many fallacies in the facts asserted by the proscution, he dwelling mainly on the legal points necessary to be borne in mind by the jury in arriving at their ver- dict. During its delivery he referred to the physicians summoned to testify on behalf of the defence, and to certain charges made by of- fictals of this trial, ag well as by others, that they ‘were influenced in their attendance of the trial by mercenary considerations, and took the occasion to highly eulogize them, both for their well-known ability and for their fair, candid, circumspect and impartial manner in which they had rendered their testimony in this case. He also referred to the Maryland University, and said that many times during the triai it seemed to him as if that tnstitu- tion were upon trial before the Court. MR. THOMAS FOR THE DEFEXCE. Following Mr. Hagner, Mr. ‘rhomas addressed the jury also on behalf o1 the defence. Beginning at fit- teen minutes past one he said:— GENTLEMEN OF THE JURY—Heretofore tn the his- tory of criminal procedure, in this State at least, community has felt tne Justice of tha humaue nciple of the aw which badly and pncpy a duty of jurora to presume, - Ty oO ° pocent andl they have been hear ing Yeee defence before an impartial tribunal.

Mrs. Chubb was absent from Mrs, Wharton's all day ‘on Suuday, aud Mrs. Wharton haa brought him up to her mouse for the purpose of poisoning him, and knew, as she did, tnat he intended to return on Monday morning, what better opportunity could she have pad to effect her pee \nan to avail herself of the absence of Mrs, Qhubb? When that lady returned the diMeculty ol accomplishing her purpose would be increased ten-lold. hue Mrs, Chubb was away there was nothing easier than to give him anything she choose without the risk of poisoning anybody else. If she intended to poison him, and knowing \nat he meant to return on Monday, she would have availed herself of Mrs, Chubb’s absence—unless she wanted also to ve a herself and furnish evi- dence against herself at every step of her course, Mrs, Chubo was absent the whole of Sunday, and, on pets 3 bunday night after tea, she found General Ketchum and Mrs, Wharton, and some other inends, sitting cheerfuily around the dining-room tavle, and General Ketchum ‘Was bright, and toid her ne was beer. Why lét pads this opportauity of poisoning him, if she bad any such designs? Why await Mrs. Chubb’s return m order to poison him? Was there any POISON IN THE BRANDY OR LEMONADE? ‘The lemonade was offered to General Ketchum and Mrs, Chubb at the same time. She was as likely to Get the poisoned glass, if there was one, as he, and Mra, Wharton had no reason to suspect that General Ketchum was going to ask for brandy, It was his suggestion. He said, when handed a glass of lemonade, he, was afraid of the acid in it, but he would take it if she would puta stick 1n,1t—meant brandy, She went across the passage to the dvor 0. the parlor, which had been given to Mrs, Van Ness, askea Mr. McAvery to get the bottle of brandy for her to give General Ketchum, and ed back to the rocm, where she handea General Ketchum what he wanted, There was no opportunity to poison this brandy in carrying 1 from Mrs. Van Ness’ room to General Ketchum, for Mr. McAvery stood in the Passage; he gave it to her in the passage, and ne saw her carry it into the room and gave it to General Ketchum;a nd saw him afverwards pour it into his glase and mix 11 with his lemonaae; ther e is nothing suspicious about that. Mr. Thomas con- tinued this line of argument to prove the fallacy of the theory that there could have been poison in the brandy or in the lemonade, and con- Cludes as follows:—“‘l say, then, gentlemen, if the testimouy stopped here there could noc have been any difficulty in coming to the conclusion that there ‘was nothing about these circumstances calculated to excite the slightest suspicion against tne prisoner. On Monday he was still 4 litte unwell; he continued unwell until the afternoon, and when Mrs, Chubu advises him in the morning to send for a physician he declines to do 80; she advisos him again in we evening to send for one and General Ketchum says:— 1 cannot resist the importunities of two women, Mrs, Wharton has also been advising me to do 80, lyield. My learned iriends say this was only the ordinary ruse of poisouers to call for a physician lor the purpose of jortuying themselves in case they come to be tried; but here you tind that she ersuaded General Ketchum vo send for a physician in presence of no one wno could be a witness 10 that tact torher. Mrs. Chubb had not heard her. If General Ketchum had died without saying this Me Mrs. Chubb no one would have been leit to prove MRS. WHARTON WAS ANXIOUS ABOUT BIM, and alone, in his presence, urged him to send for a physician, as proved by Mrs. Chubb, Referring to the iliness or General Ketchum and the opinien of the regime fas naerp as to the cause of his com. plaint, he sald:—Wnat did General Ketchum think ‘Was the cause 0! his iliness on Saturday and Sun- day night? Dr. Williams was sent for on Monday evening, and-he tells us as his prolessional opinion that he regarded General Ketchum as sudering from an irritability of stomach, which was left as the result of cholera morbus, which he had had on Saturday and Sunday afternoon; he saw no evidence whatever of any symptoms of poisoning ou Monday afternoon, but it was his prolessional opinion that at that time be was suffering with an irritability of stomach, the result only of cholcra morbus. He asked General Ketchum what had been the matter with him, and for his symptoms, Why, gentlemen, if he had taken bp ag what had excited his snus- picions? If ne bad suffered from any unusual symptoms could he not have indicated these facts to his physician? He toid vr. Williams on Monday afternoon that he had nad on Saturday night to Suaday night an attack oi cholera morbus, accom- panied with diarruwa and considerable pain. 1t Would be a waste of your time and o! miue to say word more in ta to the attacks on Satur- day alternoop and on Sunday, wheu we have the opinion of the attending physician, and of the atient himself, that at these times he was suffering From an attack of cholera morbus. A long descrip- tion was then given of General Ketchum’s condt- tion on Tuesday, and, he added, Susan Jacovus atated in her testimony that she went up to his room very soon after breakfast, and she finds him dressed and lying in bed, and in a very drowsy condition, He was not dressed when Dr. Williams was tnero earlier in the morning. He had gotien up, and the fair interence ts that he found nimselt nov so entirely restored 38 he bad supposed and that he returned to bed becadse of that discovery, He is drowsy. Susan asks him what is the matter. He replies, “Let me alone; I will sleep it of.” She goes down nate, and in the course of a litue while goes up ana Wakens him again.

The very first thing he dia when he arrived at the house of Mra. Wharton, in Baltimore, on Savurday afternoon, was to go out. He was gone for three-quarters of an hour, about the length of time necessary to go from Mrs, Wharton’s house to the apothecary snop of Coleman & Rogers. Being a delicate man—I mean delicate morally—being a refined man, he did not like tointimate to Mrs. Wharton and Mrs. Chuob What was the matter with him, ana the conclusion seems irresistible that at that time he was suffering from actual or incipieat diarrhora; that he went down to the drug- ist to get laudanum for the purpose of Felleving himselt, J say that conclusion to be drawn from the fact of his saying to Susan Jacobs, whenever he was distarped, “Let me alone,” “Let me sleep” and ‘1 will sleep it Of,” and that he thonght it could be slept off; that he was not sufer- ing at that time trom anything that had been given lim by any one else, The open way that she was going out to get a bolle of browu stout for the pure pose of MIXING A SANGARER 1s inconsistent with the idea of any criminal pur- pose, unless se was as anxious to furnish evidence ainst herself as to do mischief to Genera! Ketchum, If intended for a crimiual purpose she would not neeal have furnished aduitiunal evidence against herself by communicating the fact w ouers, The testimony of Susan Jacobs. who found no vomit in his room, shows that Mirs, Loney, who from the first story thougot she hearé him vomiting ia the third, was mistaken.

Ultimately, when the Museum gets into permanent quarters— whether in Manhattan square, Central Park or Reservoir square, all of which situations have their advocates—it 1s intended to have it entirely free to the public on certain days in each week, as isthe case at South Rensingion: but the trustees feel that it would be impossible to inaugu- rate any such eystem now, the accommodations at their disposal being so extremely contracted. They have also come to the conclusion tnat, for the pre- gent, and unt! such time as the Museum gets fairly under way, and they can arrange all the detalis of its Management, it would be inexpedient to admit ie general public, even on payment of an admis- sion jee, They propose, therefore, to make the ad- mission by tickets, Which are to be placed at the dis- posai of the subscribers for distribution, and tus privilege will undoubtedly induce many to enroll emselves among those who are endeavoring to found an insiltution which snall ultimately be worthy of our great city, It is the iuten- tion of the trust we learn, to make the Museum collections at once available for art education by granung admission to students of the Academy of Design and such others as are Hkely to derive benefit Jrom an examination of them, It 1s iutended also to make such arrangements as will give all strangers interested in art matters who may Viait our city au oppertunity of visiting the gaileries, and we feel sure tat the trustees, fully Sppreciating the responsibility thrown upon them, will do every- thing wn their power to make the advantages of the Museum avatlavle to all at as early a date as is con- sistent with the safety of the art treasures com- mitted to their care, itis hoped, at no distant day, to organize @ loan exhibition of works of art, other than pamungs, and we feel sure that the possessors of such ovjects will cheertuily lend their aid towards making such exhivition ap attractive one in all its brancues, ART SALE, It 1s to be regretted that the taste for painting is cultivated among the patrons of art at the expense, We might almost say to the exclusion, of sculpture. And yet the lavter is the higher and purer art of the two, requiring more real feeling, greater power and infinitely greater technical skill to produce works of even moderate merit, It labors under the disad- vantage that it scarcely admits of me- diocrity—that 18 to say, mediocrity cannot hide itself under c.ever or tricky effects, We must have force or weakness, knowledge and intuition or ignorance and inanity written on every line. Placed bevween extremes there is no escape, Unless @ piece of sculpture nas positive qualiues which interest us munor excellencies can- not save it from condemnation. Every defect strikes the educated eye, and the statue has to be correct from every point of view, while if the painter treats one view success- fully he acquits himself weil, This necessity for preseniing not a shadow, but the thing iugelf, preserving all the delicate relations as tney exist tn lie, 18 the great ditticulty ol tue soulptor’s art, and that which elevates it above painting. Ow- ing to the absence of color sculpture never §ppeais 80 Strongly as the sister art to the vulgar crowd, but remaios, even in countries where art has made great progress, caviare to the masses. Jt is, thereiore, not much te be wondered at that among us the urons of ideal sculpture are as yetrare, Time, jowever, we hope, will cause a more equal division of the large patronage at present bestowed upon art We have wandered from our first intention, which Was simply to announce an interesting sale of works in _marbie by Mr, Ives, an American sculptor, who has lived for some twenty years In Rome. His col- lection 1s not very numerous, but represents a large aggregate value. It is principally composed of statuettes, In wiich childhood is treated with much feeling and freshness. Among the more important works are “Ine Hebrew Maiden,” @ life-sized female figure, lean- ing. with her head her narp; the on action 1s at once simple and natural. ‘‘An American Group” weats of @ touching incident, where a cap> live white girl, claimed by her mother, clings to an Indian warrier Whom she bas learned to love. A charming litue figure is called ‘sans Souci,” and certainly we fave seldom seen a figure fuller of sympathy with the joyous abandon of childhood, ‘The sale will take place on the 25th, at the exmbi- Mon rooms, 229 Fifta avenue, ART NOTES, ‘The taste for commemorating the labors of our eminent citizens by erecting statues in their honor grows so rapidly that men of even a little genius may look forward with some confidence to a brazen immortailty, We are far from desiring to check a movement that is full of promise for the future of art patronage in this country. Whatever mistakes may be made by the tov partial consideration of friends may be safely left to posterity to correct. In the Meantime the prompt recognition extended to dis. tinguished citizens in the different walks of litera- ture, 10 social science or in war will have the effect of encouraging others to imitate, and mayhap sur- pass their labors in making the World better and wiser. some of the friends of the late Fitz-Greene Hal- Teck, tne Connecticut poet, author of ‘Marco Bozzaris,” have resolved to erect a monument to his memory in Central Park, and to Mr. J. W. Mag- donald has been entrusted the preparation of the design, The artist has represented the poet seated juan armchair, as if in bis study; strewn about are emblems of art and poeiry, which serve to draw off attention from the realism of the chair, and, at the same time, indicate the close reiationship which exists between the poet and the artist. We under- stand that tue committee who have undertaken the erection of the statue have expressed themselves highly pleased with the finished design, and that orders will be @t ouce given to proceed with te ager work. MRS, MOULTON IN BROOKLYN, Mrs. Moultcn has added the music lovers of another city to her thousan‘s of admirers. Last evening she sung for the first time in Brooklyn, and at the Academy of Music a fine audience was gathered to greet her, Its numbers, p17 might easily have been discerned, had come devoid of desire to criticise and with a full ex- pectation of hearing @ true mistress ot song. They were satisfied that she whose voice had been de- ciared by @ great composer the realization of that heard in his moments of inspiration need only be heard jor them to add their voices to the chorus of commendation being sent out by all of her previous hearers. If the audience were disappoited they were 80 pleasantly. All that they had heard in praise of the songstress had not given them more than an adequate idea of Ler charms, and they Were surprisea that she surpassed their expect- ation, To aay that Mrs. Mouiton sung finely last evening will hardly convey sense of the charm she exercised over her audience, Her selections in the pro- gramme and in response to encores were excellent, giving opportunity for the exercise of every quality of her voice. The artists supporting her were Mr. Brookavuse Bowier, tenor; Signor Ferranti, baritone, and James M. Wehll, soto lanist, Mr. George W. Colby was the musical rector Ol the concert. Both Signor Ferranti and Mr. Bowler sang. as they ever do, excellently, Mr. Wehill’s perjormanves were, of course, artistic and pleasing. Mra, Moulton has just completed an Eastern and Southern tour, during which she has everywhere i enthusiastic audiences, She will shortly begia a Western trip and upon it, she will, of course, gam new favor.
