Sanity ere — “ Yesterday the turthar hearing of the case of Giovanni and Francisco Monfaiconi, who are charged under the Extradition law with having murdered a man named Framontano, at Palermo, Sicily, in the month of February, 1873, was 1e- | gamed before Commissioner Kenneth G. White. Mr. Coudert appeared as counsel on behalf of the Italian government to conduct the prosecution, and the prisoners were defended by Mr. Cnarles Ss. Bpencer, ‘The prisoner, Giovanni Monfalconi, went on the stand, and on his own behalf testified that he bas resided in New York continuously for the last seven years, At the date of the murder he was, | he said, in New York. During a considerable por- tion of bis stay here he haa been employed in a plano factory in Twenty-second street as ® carpenter, He had got married lately in a charch in Brooklyn, but ne does not know the name of the clergyman who married | bim or who the witnesses to the marriage were; does not know the man pointed out to him (the pores pointed out is alleged to be the prisoners other) ; does not know what relation he is to bim, though he bears the same name; does not Koow a certain Captain Rollo nor an italian ship called the Peppino; never was on board tiat ship. Vaptain Rollo was Dointed out to the prisoner, but the latter said he did not recognize him, The wife of Giovanni was allowed to testify in Yegard to her marriage. She said they were mar- Tied un the 1Sth of July, 1874, in a German Catho- lhe charch im Brooklyn, A copy Of her marriage certificate was shown to the witnesq and she ad- mitted that the date of it was cérrect. Two women were next called to prove that they knew Giovanm in this country. One said she Knew him for the last year and the other that she Knew him since the winter of the year belore. Mr. Spencer asked for time to pro‘uce more witnesses for the deience, but Mr. Coudert said he had some witnesses whom he wished to examine, | ae they were about to soon sali from this port. Captain Rollo was then produced, and, in the course of his testimony, he scated that some years ago he commanded the bark Peppino. On the 2d of August, 1870, he sailed from the port of New York for Genoa, On that voyage be took ou board as a passenger Giovanni Monialcom, whom he recog- Bized as the prisoner. Subsequently be saw bim in Palermo, and in March ast he saw him in New York. Wirness is @ native of Palermo ana knew the Monfaiconi amily. The man now inted out to him he knows to be Domenico lonfalconi, brother ef Giovannt. ‘The next witness was Captain Bottone.

In the first published accounts of this murder it Was said that it was committed in the streets of Patermo. It appears that this was a mistake, The allegation now is that the murder was perpe- trated, not in the streets, but in a boat in the hai vor oi Palermo. The facts, it seems, are these The persons charged with the crime are Giovan: Carnelo and Francesco Montalcom, the latter satu to be the son of Domenico, It is aileged against | them that they went into a boat on the morning of the 13th of February, 1873, and boarded the Eng- | lish vessel Chheitain, to the captain of which they Offered their services. ‘the captain declined to empioy them, and, at the same time, pointed out one Vincenzo Framontano, who was ap- proaching the ship in @ boat, and whom e said He had alreaay engaged. Thereupon, it is asserted, the Moniaiconis leit the ship, ran into tbeir boat and at once boarded the boat of Framon- tano, into which Giovanni jumped. He accosted Framontano, asking him ‘Why he had taken that stip’? Framontano replied, “What is this all about?” when Giovanni, pulling out a knife, stabbed him several times. As he fell dead Fran- cesco snot him, and just at that moment was hold- Ing the two boats together. After tue commission of the murder the assassins fled, This 1s the state of facts which the prosecution say they will be enabled to Make out. The jurtber hearing of the case was adjourned to Thursday next. A DEFAMATION SUIT. The case of Albert Kunz, who has been indicted Mm the District of Columbia for conspiring with others to defame the character and reputation of ‘Columbus Alexander, was argued yesterday in the United States Circuit Court before Judge Blatch- ford. The defendant was arrested in this city, | ana, alter a lengthened examination be- fore Commissioner Osborn, was held to wait an order of the Court for his extradition to Washington, to there answer whe charge against him. Yesterday counsel for Kunz, Mr. A. Oakey Hall, was heard at some length in am argument to show that the offence charged against Kunz was ndt an offence against the United States law nor even against the common law as it existed in the District of Columbia. He submitted some olnts to maintain his position, ome being that ue spirit as well as the letter of the act of 1789 showed that there mas: be an offence which was generic to the United States, known to the law of Nebraska, Maine and ali the other States, | before a person could be apprehended to answer &@ charge in a@ iederai court. To defame the clar- acter vf & man was not an offence against the Jawe of the United States, and it was not an offence against any statute applicable to the Dis- trict of Columbia, The indictment in this case had been jound in the Supreme Court, but he un- Merstood that @ motion had been made to quash it on the ground that the case, which should be tried in the Police Court, where, if it was tried, the defendant would not bave the benefit of @ trial by jury. ‘The District Attorney was now placed in the anomalous posi- tion of asking this Court to send the accused for triai in Washington on a charge which the Court itself could not deal with it the case were tried here. Mr. Purdy, United States Assistant District Attorpey, was heard in reply to Mr. Hall. He quoted some authorities to snow that at the time the District of Columbia was ceded ‘rom Maryland the laws of Maryland, as de- clared by Congress, were held to be in Operation in the District of Columbia in reyard to ces against the common law. This being 80, he maintained that it was within the power o1 the Court to order the extradition of the accused.

The Hosarded Treasure of a Life Time Swept Out of View. Mr. Luthor Bryant, until lately a resident of No. 1 Forsyth street, was robbed at some time between the 9th and 11th inst. of property vained at $160,000, All tnis wealth, which consisted of money, jewelry and other valuables, was con- cealed in the two roopg jnnabited by Mr. Bryant in Forsyth street, apd it w: id¥eq while be == Sod ae ea oa ne Was 1B prison. fis being put into prison appears now to have been a part of the plan of the rob- bery, On Wednesday, the 7tn inat., Mr, Bryant was arrested by 4 policeman at the in- stance of @ man who called himself “a pri- vate detective,” but whom nobody seems to know, and Mr, Bberhard Faber, the lead- Pencil maker, of William street, He was charged with buying stolen postage stamps from @ son of Mr, Faper, and locked up in the Tombs, to be tried when the authorities got ready, Mr. Bryant was & dealer in old coins, and kept a stand 9n the corner of William aud Fuiton streets, where he made public exposition or his wares, and sold them. Being a connoisseur and something of an antiquarian he purchased all THINGS CURIOUS OR VALUABLE that were brought nim. Postage stamps of every kind, new and old, were a weakness of his, and he bought what came In his way. As he was a novice to prison life it made him anxious and nervous, remembering all his property, in Forsyth street, to be locked up, and some purely disinterested persons in the prison Noticing this, advised him to consult some great criminal lawyer. Mr. Bryant agreed to accept this counsel and had the one recommended sent for. The lawyer—at least a member of the firm— Appeared, and, according to Mr. Bryant's state- ment, demanded $25, which he got and for which he gave a receipt on the back of one of the firm’s cards in biue pencil, and went away, promising to call the foliowing morning. That was the last Mr. Bryant saw of him until after the robbery at his rooms, The firm forgot his claims, their own being satisfied. tended to his client, as he promise was paid todo, he woulil aye been liberated from prison ea bail, or the robbery could not have jaken & ace, ‘The at Ehown of the rooms occupied by Mr. Bryant having been broken into.was reported by @ woman living in the house to some friends of his in Division street. A dauguter of this iamily went to examine the doors and found they had been broken open and the apartments rified of their wealth. This young lady went promptly to the Tenth precinct station honse and acquainted Webo with what had occurred. Detective Dyer went to the house apd made a thorough examination of the rooms and the means used by the burglars to effect an entrance, Upon asking for the owner of the property, they were informed he was im the Tombs. Application was made at that estabiishment to SEE THE PRISONER, but the oMcers were denied admission. Superin- tendent Walling was then appited to, and he gave an order that the police should be allowed to com- Mmunieate with Mr. Bryant. The news of the bur- ‘lary, 80 suddenly brought him, prostrated ;Mr. ryant, and it took some time belore he could re- cover from the effect. He then made a detailed statement of his losses, but has reiused relief. Finally he wss conducted into the presence of Justice Lixby, who smiled at the wonderful story related by Bryant. Inquiries, however, were made, and it was discovered he had reaily possessed ail the property he claimed. The Dis- trict Attorney was communicated with and Bryant was finally released, He could not tell what his losses were until he examined his strong boxes; but @ cursory glauce at them when he entered his home reveated the terrible trutn—the thieves had | found out all his treasure. Nothing portable was leit bebind, and the gatherings of a lifetime were swept from him in a day. All bis brignt gold pieces and ali his curious evidences of times fast hurrying into the past were gone, filched by ir- reverent and thievish hands, Mr. Bryant’s condi- tion was pitiable at the moment tuis trath rushed in full jorce upon his mind, He threw his hands into the air and groaned aloud, Anguish and despair chased each other sweeping over his face like dark, presaging rip- ples of & storm—crushed and stunned in his utter helplessness he turned to the officers. They stood beside him stoical witnesses of his sorrow, but pO partners in it At length when he was sufficiently calm he expiained to tiem WHERE EVERYTHING WAS CONCEALED, how it was secured and what it was worth. “Under that bureau,” he said sobbing, “ut least in the false drawer beneath the others, and between the bottom of that drawer and the ground, were $70,000 in $20 gold pieces, Each piece hud been weighed by me in those little scaies you see,” point- ing to them and holding them up ior their vetter ob- servation. ‘Every coin was stamped by me, by a mall hole punched in the head of the goddess of liberty, and I never marked a plece unless It was Tull weight and a good one of its kind, done up in rouleaue and packed in brown paper, with silk paper inside—all nice little packages, nestling comfortably and closely there. In this tin box, which they have torn open, I had $12,000 worth of old gold, silver, copper and nickel coins, ‘The box wag nearly full, and 1 was thinking of buying @ new one.

Attached to it was a heavy gold chain, weighing 100 pennyweights, and com- posed of solid oblong bars, partly engraved. There ‘was also a Spanish topaz ting, set in twenty-seven small diamonds; a pair of amethyst sieeve battons, marked, ‘"M, ”’ @ pair of gold shori-sight glasses, with a tortoise shell spring; a dozen of Silver teaspoons, @ mustard, sugar and galt speon and an amethyst bosom pin, set in diamonds, Besides ail these there was a quantity of clothing and @ pearl album, handsomely iniaid, Every- thing disappeared bat the few articles of furnl- ture you see, The few articles of furniture so slightingly no- ticea by Mr. Bryant were really not so insignifi- cant aiter all. The rooms which held them were on the third floor and in the rear of the tenement house. On the floors were HANDSOMB CARPETS, of fine quality. The bureau under which all the gold was hid was an elaborately carved, elegant nece of furniture. Upon it stood a magnificent ench clock, covered by ashade. ‘This tmepiece alone must be worth several hundred dollars, In the outer room, on the mantel, stood another clock, It was of bronze, and of beautiiul design. Though not so large as the other, it appeared to be quite as valuabie, for it was certainly a work of art, 1m its onginality of conception, ‘The walls of both rooms were well covered with pictures, some of which were cnromos and & few valuable paintings, and were strewn with rare and exquisite articles of household decoration. China and glass of unusual design and in great variety of shape and size loaded down the tables, mantels anu sideboards. Easy chairs and luxurious lounges were on every hand, and all this comiert and splencor was made the richer and more enjoyable stili from the con- trast it bore to the general aspect of things out- side these doors, Mr. Bryant was not & miser, although he lived in this narrow dwelling, surrounded as it were with all he possessed, His laith in banks Was limited and he thought he could take as good care of his fortune as they. Besides, he was learful of dying and such an event happening without his having made a will, a thing he was averse to doing, he fear the bank would become his heir, and he preterred distribut- ing his things among nis friends and those wno had been kind to him.
