have no right to do the Uw prohibit, It. i That le uoi the mode In which he Is to be lm- i peached, and ibc counsel v.ell it; uml vet the counsel tried to make you believe that wo shrank from inquiring into his chastity, i But, take the case as It Ktcudf, the proof that has Incidentally come in, and then say how bis reputation li in this Mn. Burch tells Fannie Burch and Spalding that Stuart is a had man; that Mrs. Pruyn had written her that be carried on a liaaon In Washington with a ladv of high rank, and ruined that lady 1 reputation; and Mrs. Burch also that he has already broken up two or three' families in Chicago; and Mrs.

Bareli's own brother tells her again that Stuart is a bnd roan.and she better keep clear ofhlm; he teltsMr. B.Uiat he is a bad man among women. Now take these statements by the defendant herself; lake the warnings given to her by her own friends and her mm brother; take all that apjKars In this case, and then say, without any or pretense, what is your opinion about tiiat man's actual character for cjias tity. If he was a proper and chaste man, and had no licentious desires, what is he prowling around Mr. house for I ask von was he there for any proper purpose Why did lie not go when Mr.

Burch was at home He was there but two or three times in all, so far as my proof goes, when Mr. Burch was at home. But whenever Mr. Burch was absent, Stuart was there nearly every night. What was he there for? They admit moreover he had seduced this woman's affections from her husband.

Is that the work of a man of chastity and honor? Is that the act of an honest man? That thing itsclfis almost as bad as adultery. What is the difference between lurking around this man's house, sneaking in there iu his absence, and depriving the husband of the affection and confidence of his Is the difference between that and debauching Iter person? In any moral point of view, as connected with the character of the mau, that does it. There is uot the slightest difference, and they concede that he has done that. That is the character of Mr. Stuart.

Ido not care what positions he has occupied they furnish him the means of doing his work the snore effectually. In order that you should properly Judge Mr. testimony, and say what credit should be given to him, it becomes necessary to consider bis connection with this case, and the motives that grow ont of that connection. Now, In cases, accomplices In crime arc not permitted to testify for each other. Two men indicted for larceny, or any other offense, as accomplices, arc from testifying for each other.

ThU Is the general rule and It is founded upon the supposed interest of each accomplice to deny the offence, to deny the perpetration of the crime entirely, and thus uot only to acquit their themselves. It Is not always true that both accomplices, in ordinary crimes, guilty, or both innocent It will often happey that one of them may be guilty and the otlwr innocent, and consequently it is always safer in coses of criminal offences to admit an accomplice to to swear to the character of his associate than it is in a ease of this kind. For, in the crime of adultery, or in cose where that crime icharged, either both are guilty, or neltln are. Takethe case oftheft: two men may accused as accomplices ol the crime of theft: one may be guilty and the other innocent, and consequently the one maybe called as a wit In regard to the other, and uot be necessarily interested. He may admit the crime and swear against his accomplice, or he may acquit his accomplice and not involve himself.

But because he is likely to be interested in Ujl ease, the law, to prevent the temptation to commit perjury, to prevent imposition upon juries, excludes the testimony of the accomplice altogether in favor of himself, though thev admit it against him. Now, in this ease, Stuart's interest iu the event of this suit Is much greater than that ol an accomplice swearing lor his associate in any other case. Because here, if Mrs. Ban is 'guilty, Mr. Stuart cannot be innocent.

In testifying to her guilt he thereby convicts himself; and in testifying to her innocence he acquits himself of a crime which the statute makes felony, and punishes with imprisonment In the He is therefore interested in precisely the same degree us Burch. The Instant that he tcstiUcs here tha' Mrs. Bnrch Is he must testify onway or the other, that she is or Is uot The moment he testifies that she Is guilty, Uadmits his own guilt, of a crime made fehniy by the statute, and punishable by imprisonment in the penitentiary. Now, Is that a mau might have such a horror of perjury and such a love of truth, that he mig'-t even be willing to encounter that penalty rather than commit the crime of perjury; although the penalty of the crime tbal he Is just the same as penalty of the offence his interest calls upon him to commit. Adultery and perjury punished just about But In the case Stuart there were other and more fearful to deter him from the admission of tins cram in any event, guilty or innocent.

He would not only expose himself to some of the highest penalties of the law, and his paramour le the like penalty, but he would consign bet name to everlasting infamy, her name, name of the woman who haff so deeply tniMed to what this class of men arc apt to call ilit-ii honor, and in the estimation of every class ol society he wonld be ruined. There is a that now tujjport of his own regard it as a species of heroism to conceal one crime by the perpetration of anotlu That class, the moment that be should, as tii-j call from his duty, the moment he had failed to shield UiisVoman by the per jury which they think he owes her moment they would abandon him. And nut onb that, if he dared by admitting: his own guib hereto stamp the brand of shame indeiikN upon the brow of this woman, he would there bv encounter at once the hostility of that larm circle of friends and relations whose atir.t-k; Mr. Burch has so fearfully experienced for 1 last year. The moment that her guilt tabliphcd by the admission ofStuart, this who now support him, and those must all make common cause with the injimr husband to avenge the wrong common tc them ali.

Her vindication hy Stuart thus being dered impossible, nothing would be left, sin mlii he admit his guilt, but vengeance upon hei betrayer, and well might Stuart fear the qncnccfi of that vengeance. Mr. Comiut was no man to be trifled v. ill relations and kindred were numerous and powerful and respectable: among the families injihcolder ftbe Union; uinoi; the roost powerful and influential. All Stuart must prepare to encounter; all he must face, and their vengeance he meet But as the case now stands, I having denied theoffence and sought to shcltc.

tlds woman, there relations and friends ikt common cause with him, and you, see her adopted father, the affectionate nnch of this woman, striking hands with her seducer, and making common cause with him crush to the earth the injured husband uhi has dared to offend him by refusing to rcceiv. back this woman. Let Stuart admit this ci inn and all this would be'changed. Now, that adopted father is not only a man enjoying tin Inchest political and moral position, achieved by his own efforts; not possessed of vast wealth, but controlling the money uud power of one of tin largest corporations on the Continent, am able by the distribution of its patronage tc abundantly reward the services of of zealous friends, be Is a man of indomitable will, of Implacable passions, and let tin vindication of this lady once be rendered im possible, he would hunt Stuart to the flirt lit bounds of the green earth. Where, I ask you could this man hope toflud refuge from tln just wrath of this indignant father and all hoi haughty and vindictive relatives and kinsmen; Now, Mr.

Burch is an isolated and power less man; him he could injure, his ligkb he could trample upon; his nicest he could outrage; his home he could desecrate; his children he could rob of name and parent age; his very heart he could crush with eotn paralivc impunity. Gut Mr. Coming wasroan whose hostility it was dangerous to provoke, and be shrank from not from Coniine alone; not from the father and relatives of hei alone would lie have feared retribution. Kin had confessed this heinous crime, every father, every husband, every brother that could feel the impulse of honest affection, would joined to bunt forth from their midst wretch who had betrayed friendship, violated the tcndcrest of domestic ties, outraged tin most sacred of domestic affections; the roar who bad robbed the dealing husband of In wife, and the lender infant of its mother. 1 ask yon what kind of astory this Stuart week have had to tell here in the confession of crime? This would have been Stuart's story, had In come here and confessed this crime: came to Chicago, a stranger dcsthitb of friends or fortune.

Among my earliest rons and bencflictors was the complain mt iu this ease, lie gave me employment; in troduccd roe to his friends; atnivown dotation he introduced me to his wife; he me to his house, and there presented me his children and his guests. I found him hi stately mansion, adorned with ail the cmin-1 lishments of art, and furnished with every ap- pliauce of comfort and luxury. I found'bin: happy in the society of his wife, still beautiful, accomplished and attractive; adaugbterof tender years, beautiful and alfcctiouate as tin heart ofa parent could desire, completed tin circle of that family, and left nothing for parents to wish. 1 was received as an hoimicv guest with the most liberal hospitality, r.u those substantial favors, for these gem-run. kindnesses, what was my return? Availttiv myself of the opportunities afforded by tin hospitalities thus extended to me, even undi-i the roof to which 1 had been invited, at tin hospitable board I was shoring tin bounty of my friend in the presence of child, under Ida own eye, while partaking his bounty, I coolly plotted the rum and seitue Hon of his wife.

Availing myself of the portunltics afforded by my friend's absence, 1 stole like a thief at night to his bouse, baring first secured an intimacy with that wifi by the foulest slanders, I instilled a suspicion into her mind against the fidelity of her bus band. Then following up the advantage thus gained, I resorted to that most potent weapon of the seducer, flattery, and aided and Civorcc by the frank, generous and confidlugtcmpcr my thenoinral vanityofznyvictiiii. so rapid was my progress that in three months from my entrance into Ids house, its proud mistress had become the mere slave of my wiU, and the victim of my lusts. Formontln after this 1 continued to receive tbe rood touching evidences of kindness and confidence at the hands of the husband, while 1 crawled nightly to his bonsc and repeated there the wrong I had before done him. All this time I met him with a smile upon my lips, but It was tbe smile of Judas betraying Lb master.

Such was my return for his and generosity. I found that house the happy and honored home of tbe holiest affections, and tbe tendcreet sentiments. As Satan enter ed the bowers of Eden, so I with tbe guile o'. the serpent and the malignity ol a fiend, crept within this earthly paradise, and converted il into a den of pollution and infamy, fio the foal serpent larks within yonr wells. Until the blade slime betrays him as be The victims of my hellish arts, the deluded, deceived, and wretched husband, and the dihonored and outcast wife, now sit here before yon.

This wreck of human hopes, this painful divorcement of loving hearts, this sundering of the gentlest men of the jury, is my work. In me behold the author of all this This would be his story. Well might we apply to him the language of one need for a different purpose, but extremely applicable to Mich a character: Oh! wretch, without a tear, without a thought Save loy above the ruin thou bant wrought.

The time ssall rome, aor long remote, wlca thou fehalt feel far more thau ibou Inftlncu now; heel for thv vile selC loving telf in ram. And turn thee hovUng In unntUrd pain.

Thy name, thy human name, to ever)' eye The climax of nil scorn shall hang on blab Kxalted o'er thy leu abhorred compeers And festering iu the Infamy of Gentlemen of the is the character in which he stands before you.

This would be his confession feebly expressed. Dare he make It? Is there a community within the limits of this broad loud that would tolerate hh presence for a moment? Would he not, from the moment of this confession, lie hunted like a wild beast? Docs it lie within tbe limits of human impudence, of human assurance, that a man could survive such a confession made here before you. Unless you can believe tiiat If this story were true, he would confess it, then his evidence Is not worth a a rush. Why? If be would not confess the truth, being guilty, then be would swear to Ins innocence In any ease, would he not? And if his testimony would be Just the same, whcthcrguilly or innocent, of course it emmet prove anything iu reference to his -uilt or innocence. Now, need I say more about Stuart? Need I tell you that if the oath of the seducer is to bo received, you will forever nullify this Law Need I tell you that he can swear to this story with perfect impunity? Will the fear of the pcijmydeterhim? licis perfectly safe from ihosc.

In order to convict a man of perjury' you must have the testimony of at least one witness who swears positively, of his own knowledge, that the statement he has sworn to is false. Mrs. Burch is the only person on earth who would ever swear to that, and when and Corning had once induced her to testify to innocence and her own, when Mrs. Burch has once been brought to that point, when her conscience has once become so blunted that -lie could swear to her own innocence as well as It was perfectly safe forStuartto do the same thing, and feel perfectly sure that her testimony would never jeopardize him. So it will be In every case of adultery.

In every case ofaduiteiy, unless proved to have been committed in the sight of others, you may prove ever so stronga case; the adulterer cau come in aud testify against the charge with perfect impunity. If you take the oath of the accomplice in the crime, you thereby nullify the statute. You find Stuart standing here deeply interested, nflucnced by all the motives that can be involved In this rase, aud telling you that he never took the slightest liberty with this woman, never transgressed the bounds of the utmost propriety. Now, take the whole mass of this evidence: take the testimony of Margaret of Miss Spalding, of Miss Fannic'Burch; take all this testimony. It shows the opinion that Mary Spalding entertained about the character of the intimacy between these persons.

Take Burriirs estimate of what that intimacy was. Take the fact that Mrs. Burch, in athrec intimacy with Boyd, indulged with him iu alt manner of indecent liberties. Take rlie fact that Stuart was ready on opportunity to attempt to kiss Miss Spalding and and kiss Miss Fannie Burch. Take what you sec of his tendencies; take what yon see of Mrs.

Burch's tendencies. Then lake all these they spent alone together; all these opportunities they had, and indications they manifested, and then say whether you for one moment believe that statement of BluartV, that no impropriety ever took place between (hem. Hestauds opposed to the whole mass of -this evidence. And, in order to credit his statement, you must not only believe that the tccompllce iu adultery is to be credited, but be alone speaks the truth. There is no way possible in which you can reconcile his testimony with the mass of this evidence.

You must either discredit him, or you mustdisbe- Hevethis whole evidence. They say that Burrill supports Stuart Now the only support that Burrill him, If he is, indeed, capable of supporting anybody, is in reference to that letter about which they so much. Tiicy say that letter settles this i ease beyond all doubt. Now that Is not a new device. I have been considerably engaged in 'be practice of criminal law for twenty years, iud there struck me most forcibly, wheu that tetter came up supported by the testimony of Stuart aud Burrill, a passage of that Scripture most of you probably have looked into from time to time, aud which I have occasionally seen, is nothing new under the The preparation and production of that letter was as nearly like an occurrence that transpired in a suit 1 had before tried, that it immediately brought that passage ofScripturc to my mind.

There is, indeed, nothing new under the sun. Villainy has been villainy always; and there is scarcely a trick that a rogue can play but some other rogue in advance has played it. Neither Stuart nor Burrill could a patent for that trick, for I could prove that the same thing in substance bad been done before. Notv let us look at it for a moment. In the first place, 1 have alluded to position.

Arc you going to believe anything of BurrillV consequence to it There arc two views to take of Burrill. In the first place, you may consider him, if yon please, au ignorant, unsuspecting and unsuspicious kind of person that Stuart used a tool to accomplish his purpose, and that Burrill was innocent of that object; this would be the best view that you could take of him, and would do pretty well if it was not for the fact that Maty Spaulding at an day gave him fair notice of the effect of his conduct. That Interview between her and him, no matter Low stupid Burrill may have been. If he were honest, would hare opened his eyes. I will not argue, for it must be perfectly evident to you, that aman who acts as a instrument, a tool for the seducer to effect his upon the wife of any man whatever, is a person capable of the deepest crimesknown to the law.

If you convict Burrill of being such a go-between, it would scarcely be worth while to notice his testimony or this letter, because the letter is the work of Stuart and Burrill. You will remember that nobody has ever seen that letter, according to bis own but they two; the proof rests entirely upou their statement that there ever was such a letter, and upon their statement alone: and if Burrill is infamous and entirely of credit, then that letter cun add nothing to the proof in the case, because it is bronchi here and offered by Stuart and Burrill. If an accomplice can support himself by the totitnouy of on accomplice, it would always be perfectly easy to do so. It would have'bcun easy for' Stuart and Burrill to manufacture this letter at anytime. But I will tell youwhatmyconjcctnreabout that letter is.

Ido not regard it as of any consequence either way. Admit the letter to be genuine, it Is villi iho fact that they had committed the crime of adultery- Sly conjecture in regard to the letter Is this: that Stuart received some kind of a letter from Mrs. Burch. told Fannie Burch that she did deliver tetter to Stuart, and about that time; and she told Fannie Burch that in that letter she had ccusuredStuart forsomethiug. Now take (be transactions then occurring.

Mrs. Burch and Stuart had had tills Uasou two years before. Stuart had desisted from visiting her for some reason. It is undoubtedly true that for eighteen months prior to tbc fall of 1559, Stuart aud Mrs. Burch bad bad but very little intercourse.

One reason of that prolohly was her i-lalc of health. You will recollect'that her youngest child was bom in May, 1858, and from that time she was absent untiftbe fall of that year, when she came home sick, with a ditllculty that lasted all winter, or nearly all winter. She went to the East in the Spring of and did not return until the FalL During all this time her intercourse with Stuart bad ceased. But in tbc Fall of 1859, we find Mr. Stuart renewing his attentions to her, and about that time Mrs.

Burch undoubtedly found out that a storv was current that Stuart had at uuc time indulged in some liberty with her, such as putting his arm around her waist. She accused Smart of it, and she told Burrill that she believed Stuart had told the story. Burrill told her that Mary Spaldlnghad told it to him; but Mary letter, which I have before referred to, and which Mrs. Burch had received some time that Fait, contradicted that, and informed Mrs. Burch (hat shehad not told any such story.

Nowl beg you will follow me, and you will see what that letter amounts to. Mrs. Burch is informed by Maty letter that sfachad not told that story, aud tells her that she believes that Stuart bad told it to Burrill. Now that would necessarily lead Mrs. Burch to be apprehensive.

She would be afraid, if Stuart bad told Burrill of Ibis thing, after what hod passed between them, that Burrill might tell it. Fornlthongb Burrill was the go-between, it is more than likely that he had no absolute knowledge of their guilt And even Ifhc liad known it. she would not want Stuart to talk lo him about ihe particulars of their intimacy: it would be dangerous. She became apprehensive that tbeir intimacy waa to be made public; and she wrote Stuart a letter about it. Take that letter as it stands, and see what a pretty piece of logic you can make of It.

AU that Mrs. Burch pretends to have heard against Stuart is that he hod told Burrill about putting his arm around bur waist. That is all. But that was enough to make her apprehensive aud fearful, enough to mike her check him and put him ou bis guard. I do not doubt tlrnt at that time she wrote to Stuart some kind of a letter of that character.

Well, was it this letter? That is the question. What is this letter? It informs Mr. Stuart that she had found out that he has formed a plot for her ruin; that he and Burrill had fonncdaplot for her ruin. Now, has she heard anything to uivc her any cause for saying any such thing? Docs she pretcud in that letter to have heard any one tact that led her to conclude that Stuart and Burrill had formed a plot for her ruin? AU she pretends to have heard is that Hr. Stuart had told Burrill, and Burrill was telling it to somebody else; that he, Stuart, had put his arm arouud her waist; that is to say, that Stuart was betraying the iulimacy that had existed between them; that was all.

Was there any ground for her telling him that been informed, or bad found oat, that h-and Burriil were plotting for her ruin? There is no sequence in that; it docs not follow; there Is no explanation of that in any event that had occurred before. And take the story abont the preservation of this letter; the ingenious and curious way in which they tell you it came to be preserved. Mrs. Burch handed it to Mr. Stuart, so Stuart aays; what does he do with It In 1 the first place he swears upon his direct examination that he hurried to Burrill with it that very night, and delivered it over to him.

Why didjbedo that Why was he so anxious that Burrill shouldjscc that letter? Can you conceive any good reason? It might weu be that he should speak of it incidentally to Burril, If they happened to meet. But I ask you what Burrill really had to do with It? Suart knew I very well all about it; he knew, for Born 11 had told him that Mrs. Burch had heard that he, Burr 1L had told this story, and Stuart had told Mrs. Burch before that time that Burrill had told it, and that hs had not told it The whole thing had been discussed between these lartles before. In short Stuart knew that Mn.

lurch suspected him of having communicated this fact to Burrill, end of having repeated it, all three of them knew that, and Stuart charged it upon Miss Spalding. Now, why he so anxious to hurry to Burrill and present letter contained nothing new? You will see by the commencement of this that It was merely a continuance of an old subject, something that they had talked about before. Stuart would uot have understood the letter if there had not been a conversation about the same subject. Thelctter commences as though the thing had been talked of between them before, as you will see when you come to look at It. Why was he so anxious to hurry to Burrill with this letter? And then again, what on earth did Burrill want of a copy of tiiat letter? He says that he sat dowu that veiy night and made a copy of this letter, and then banded the letter back to Stuart iu the morning, us though was some contract, some note of hand, some writing obligatory upon which suit was to tie brought.

What did be propose to do wlht It? Had Burrill any use for it What did he make a copy for And for what did he go the next morning and give the original letter to Stuart And if he did give it back to Stuart, why did be not tell him that he had made a copy of it? He careful to say here that he never told Stuart of this copy until about the time this suit commenced, why was that How often in the course of human events would It happen that a copy of a letter would bo preserved just in such a way os this? Is it not one of those rare coincidcilccs, that do not happen once in a thousand times, that Burrill swears to. Then 1 will beg you to take that letter and alter two or three words in, it and instead of proving that there had not been adultery between "these parties, it proves conclusively tltat there bad been. The whole effect of that letter depends upon the accuracy of tbe copy. And you have to change but two or three words, and it proves conclusively that there had been adultery between those parties. Mr.

Miller (to Mr. Beckwith). is that letter Mr, Beckwith. have acopy of it, I think. Mu.

MiM.ru.— lt is the copy in pencil we want, the copy produced here by BurrilL Mr. Beckwith. have not the copy here. You have a copy, taken at the time when It was read. Mb.

have a copy, and I suppose it is a correct one. But we want the copy produced here by BurrilL Mr. That copy is in my room, I suppose. If you desire it, I will send for it. Mb.

Van Arman can get along without it of this letter that chanrcs Burriil with being a of it that charges them with having formed a plot for her ruinis perfectly consistent with the supposition that he had already cliected his object I will read you the only part they rely upon to show that she bad not already been ruined. After referring to what Mary Spalding had written hcr'about Burriil telling her, when she asked him what he would do should any man act towards his wife as Stuart was acting towards Mrs. Burch, aud that he would shoot him dead referring to this, she goes on to write; This Is the language of a man whom I believed to he a friend I could trust, hut who nowsccms to meto have been conspiring with you to accomplish my ruin. I cannot tell you how it has shucked and distressed me, thus to be forced to believe and realize that yon, in whose honor I reposed so much confidence, and tmsted so entirely, could have been so false and deceitful; that you ever could have conceived a scheme or harbored a thought to my injury. lam not willing now to think so badly of yon, or that such a thing was possible.

But you must see that it is enough to me just cause for suspicion and indignation. 1 cannot sec it In any other light than that your object was to make me the victim of a plot too dreadful to think of, and that he was aiding toil At least, it looks very That is what they say was actually written. Now, let one suppose that two or three words were changed in this last sentence. We will suppose that the seducer bad seduced beruu- dcr protestations of the most violent love, and bad used this Burriil as a go-between in the suppose that she liad found out that Stuart was so far willing to forget her interest and to peril her reputation os to boast of the fact of their intimacy to others; suppose she hod discovered by other indications, and perhaps among other things, by the fact that be had not come near her for'eighteen months, that he had abandoned her for some otherand that is one of the greatest injuries that such a woman thinks she cau receive; suppose her to have been attached to who cau doubt then be bad abandoned her; that alone would lead her to think his protestations of love and attachment were all false. Let him become so regardless of her interest and welfare as to boast of his intimacy with her to Burrill, or to any other man, and she might well writcsuchalettcr.

She might well say lo him, sought my confidence, you sought my love, you made to me the most violent protestations of affection, and I became the victim ofa plot too terrible to Just change this language so as to place it in the past tense; you need not change but a sentence; all the rest of the letter may os well refer to past transactions as to those which have not yet been committed. Change this hist passage but a word or two, and it will refer Just as well to things that have been done, as to those that yet to be done. And whr.t have you to authenticate this letter? Take tbc situation these parties were In. Stuart says that he and Burrill met as soon as the difficulty occurred. lie says he bad his agents about tbc house watchingcvery step, and he was cxcccdinglvanxioustoknow what tbc result would be.

lie says that at tbc time be and Burrill met, they knew that an exposure was imminent, and it wonld be tbc most natural thing in the world that if be bad any thing of hers, any letter or note, or any means out of which to manufacture something to give even a show of Innocence, that he would do it. Do you suppose that be would scruple to doit, ortbat Burrillwouldscruple to help him I have not the strength to argue this as fully as I should. But yon can sec that this thing If, even upon its face, it shonldsecm to to bear a show of innocence, was what they would very probably manufacture; it would be the most natural thing in tbc world that they should do so. But they say, if he had intended to manufacture a letter, why did he not make one a little more conclusive, a little more direct and plain? Why make one without signature and withont date He would not do that from tho very fact that a plain contradiction of any adnltcir between them would have indicated the fabrication. Xo other letter would have been recelvedhcre except one that was equivocal.

Suppose they had produced a letter of that date, in which Mrs. Burch had plainly asserted that Stuart had not seduced her, it would not have a feather's weight with you; yon would have seen at once that it was a thing got up since the time, and for tbc purpose of this very trial, because otherwise there would have been no occasion for it. If they would moke or manufacture anything, In order that it should be received here as entitled to any consideration at all, it must be something of this equivocal character. If this letter was written by Mrs. Borchin the way stated, and If it was in fact an evidence of her innocence, she knew she had written that letter, she had told Fannie Burch of why did she not quote it as an evidence of innocence? She knew what she had written to Stuart And while she confesses her guilt to Fannie Burch, she at the same time informs her (Fannie Batch) about writing this letter.

Mr. Browsing never said a word about the letter at that time. It was long before that that she mentioned that letter to Fannie Burch. Mr Van She told Fannie Bareli that she hod banded Mr. Stuart the letter before that.

But In her confession to Fannie Dun she told her about tbc conversation she had in reference to this matter, al the time of the walk up and down the avenue with Stuart; she told her that they talked over the whole subject of this letter. And she told her that Stuart reproved her for opening letters in the street before his office, because it attracted attention. Xbw, if this letter which she had written to Stuart contained evidence of her innocence, why did she not say so? I cannot farther explain this letter; nor is it necessary. If the explanation wc have offered here is received if yon believe the testimony wc have produced: if these confessions were actually made, and made without compulsion; if this previous intimacy did occur between these parties; then no piece of evidence like this which it was perfectly possible to manufacture, and which might have got up for the purpose of this case, an tbc day that they showed it here, for anything that we could show to the contrary, supported os it is by no other testimony than that of Stuart and Burrell, both of them accomplices in the transaction, will have any weight. Gentlemen, I have much more which I wish to say to you; but my strength falls me and I must close.

I have already talked to yon much longer than I Intended. In wiiiaddaword only to what I have already said, in regard to your responsibility and mine in this case. I have nodr in my poor way, and according to the best of my ability discharged mine. The case now remains with you. I know well I entertain no doubt that If you were to listen to the opinions of the public, especially Just about so many have been used, which you understand as well os I do; if yon arc to be guided by them, I can tell what your verdict will be.

All I have to say is, that if this testimony cannot command a verdict from a Jury; if tbc fact of these Intimacies continued through two'years, os wchave proved; if four four oral confessions, followed by four letters containing confessions equally as strong, making twelve confessions in all, running through the space of ten days, when every possible chance of collusion is excluded, when every influence is denied, when the woman was as free as yon or when the letters themselves show that her mind was as clear as it ever was in her life, when she expresses in those letters feelings that arc perfectly natural to one In her situation, and comprehends dearly both tbc past and the future; if such evidence cannot prevail, then this statute between such parties cannot be executed. I have uo doubt it can be among the poor and obsenre. Bat if this proof does not compel you to a verdict for the complainant, then as between the rich and the wellborn, those who have power and Influence, this statute is a nullity, and the public may as well know it "VTEW LAW BOOKS AT D.

There Is no paper offering, no exchange making and very little selling. The wants ol customers at present enormous rates are small and the ability of the banks to furnish It ditto. Everybody seems watting for something to turn up" and what that something is to bo nobody pretends to guess. There no feeling of special despondence to-day among bankers and business men so far as we conld observe, but simply ntter and complete inaction on every side. There seems to be nothing to do, with plenty of help to do it.

Exchange to-day was sold very sparingly to customers at 10 per cent, premium. The buying rate is nominal at 9though some of our largest bankers have paid full selling rates. Gold is nominal at 9 per cent, premium buying and 10per cent, selling rate. Tire Securities put The following certificate explains itself. Auditor's Oppice, Sprikopield, Bee.

It Is likely that the banks on which the call was made will, with perhaps the exception of those that were thrown ont and were thereby crippled in their means of responding, will respond promptly to tbe call of the Auditor.

PROVISIONS AND HOGS IN CINCINNATI. the Cincinnati Price Current, Dec.

The market for bogs has been very much depressed. and prices ruled low. The somber on the market has not been large at any time, as many of the drovers prefer packing on their ows account to selling at present prices, bat the demand basnet been op to the offerings any day, and prices settled down from day today, until the hogs sold as low as 14.62&4.75 vesterday. whilst the best in the market were offered at $5. Farmers and drovers are generally holding their bogs back, expecting better prices, and but for this, prices would be down to $4.

The fact Is, there seems to be not enough confidence entertained by onr packers in the future, to cany a heavy load of pork, except at extreme low prices: and even Ifthcv had confidence, money is so scarce that they have not the means to go on without selling the product, and this cannot be done now to any extent. The advices from New York last evening looked more hopeful, and had a cheering influence upon the feelings of merchants; but something more tangible must take place before any Improvement in need be looked for. At the close. List evening, a pretty goodbuslneaa could have been done at the EnglLh and Irish packers being willing to pay these rates: bat holders asked $5 for good nogs, and contended for this rate firmly.
