The verdict, under the ruling which had been adopted by the J ml go in the trial nnd under tlie charge of the court, had been generally nnllclpated. On the two former trials a method of ruling had been adopted by the court and ovldenco admitted ou the part of the plalntllls which, under the decision of the supreme court In the last case, could net be allowed In this trial. Jtulge Hand throughout the trial was largely guided by thodeclsionof thesupreme court, and it Is believed among the lawyers that his ruling wns sound and will be sus talued by the supreme court when the cae Is taken up by tlie plalntllls. Calhoun M. Dorriuger felt keenly the nd nd Mirse decision, having lieen confident up te the laM low hours of again winning the case. He criticised soverely the rullugel the Judge and the tene of his charge. He leuud particu lar lault with the exclusion of certain docu mentary cvulcnce, which, in a remete degree tonded te show that Derrlnger had paid the taxes for ISM before the sale In 1823 te Cese. He said that the case would be carried up te the supreme court as seen as possible, and expressed strong hepe that they would be able te place the matter In such a light before that tribunal that a new trial would tie or dered. The points en which the case turned are plainly and briefly put lu the recapitulation at the elose of the judge's charge, when he addressed the Jury as lollews: "New, gentlemen et the Jury', te recapitu late: It you find under our Instructions that the tax saloet 1820 te the commissioners mid -of the commissioners In IS'.T te Henry Der ringer was regular as toadvertlsomont, that placed a legal and valid title of this tract In Henry Derringer. If you find the sale or 1S23 was a sale made when the taxes were uet paid, then it passed n geed title te the com missioners, and the sale In 1S3I Id Charles S. Coxe was a geed sale, and your verdict should be for the defendant. If the taxes were paid In 18'27 and uet paid lu 18.12 and 1S.13, then Iho sale of 18.11 te Charles S.

It the taxes ferlS2Tand the taxes for 1832 and 18.13 wero paid befere the sale, then the plalntltr is entitled tnro tnre tnro cevor." This decision ir It Is suetalned by the sn sn preme court, puts ex-Senater Kckley II. Coxe In undisputed possession et 1,972 acres or coal land that ranks among the most valuable In tlie coal fields.

THE DEMOCRATIC ANSWER. WIIT THK 1'BKSIUKKT BEFVBKa 1SIOR MATIOS AtKBD Br TUB SENATE. The Minority el the Judiciary Committee flay That Mnety-rie I'er Cent, et the Offlres Were filled by the Iteptibllrann for Fatty Nerrlcea. Waihinqte, 1). C, March 1,tSonate The chair laid befere the Senate a totter from the secretary el the treasury, showing the claims, accounts, and vouchers suspended In that department. Mr. Hale 'criticised the action of the ac counting ofllceni of the treasury in "holding up" accounts, and the papers were orderod printed. Mr. Pugb, representing the minority el thejudlclary committee, submitted the views of tlie minority en the resolution submitted te that committee regarding the ofllce of the district attorney for the Southern district of Alabama. The report was ordered printed In the lltcerd and also in separate lerm. After routine business, at half past twelve o'clock, Mr, Pugb. submitted te the Sonate the views of the minority of the committee en Judiciary, respecting the declination of the president te furnish papers bearing upon the removal of United States District Attor ney Duskln, of labama. The report says that when Trosldent Clovo Clevo Clove land came Inte ollice he found about 96 per cent, of the offices filled by Republicans ap pointed as a reward for party services. The party te whom the president ewed his nomi nation aud election had been exiled from all participation in the civil administration of the government ter nearly a quarter of a century. The friends and supporters el the president made application for a redistribu tion of the public trusts ; no ether president had ever been subjected le such severe trial, or had te meet se many grave dlfilcultles.and no ether had such an abundant supply of valid reasons and causes urging him te free exercise of his pewer of removal irem federal office, and no ether ever resisted with raorefairnes, the J list claims of his supporters or used his pewer of removal mero conscientiously, cau tiously, and sparingly. Notwithstanding these facts, the CM) nominations sent te the Senate Iu the suspension cases had beea allowed te remain befere the cotnmittee without consideration aud final disposition. Duskin has made no complaint te the Judi clay committee, the president, or the attor ney general that he was wronged by the suspension. The committee was fully Informed tbat Burnett was recommend oil te the president by all the members of Congres from Alabama en pergenal knowl knewl knowl edgo of his high character. Stripped te tbe naked truth, without any special pleading, the case made for the Senate en their resolu tion, and the answer of the attorney general is whether the Senate hxs the right te demand of the attomey general the transmission against the order of the president, of the only paper or document of the description men tioned in the resolution, when that paper or document Is suited in the refusal te relate ex ex clusively te the removal of Duskin by the presldent and for that reason alone is net transmitted. The presi dent holds that it is net n public docu ment, and there can be no doubt about the correctness of his decision, aud It must be accepted as conclusive. It is au,undenlable truth that every right, power, privilege, or prerogative created by law, or granted In the constitution has seme Just reason, use, ne cessity or foundation for its existence and support. The majority of the judiciary cotnmittee affirm the right of the Senate te direct the atterney goneral, or request the president te transmit any paper en the files of the department, or in possession of the presldent, If such paper relates te an official act of the president or the head el any department- Tbe minority deny tbat the claim of tlie majority, where the paper or document relates exclusively te' removals or suspen sions, has any foundation or recognition in the constitution or valid law. The minority admits tbat any and every public document or record en the files of any department, or In the possession of the president relating te any subject whatever evor which either Uouse of Congress has any power, juris diction or control under the constitution Is subject te tbe call or inspection of either Heuso for use lu the con stitutional powers nnd its jurisdiction. Rut If nil the power grnuted in the constitu tion ever the subject matter Is vested in the prosldent exclusively, the euly rightful custediau cf all such papers is the chief oxecutlve otllcer. Why was the possession or inspection of papers relating te the making and ratifying or treaties refused te the Heuse of Representatives? At 1:20 1 1x1., en motion of Mr. Hale, the Sonate went into executive session. A ritCSIDENTIAL COVfMONICATION. At half-past two the doers were ro-eponed and a communication from the president was read, giving his reasons for net furnishing the papers called for In the Duskin case, Mr. Edmunds moved the reforenco of the mossage te the judiciary committee, and characterized it as the most remarkable exe cutlv e mossage In the country's history, re sembling theso sent te Parliament by King Charles.

Befere completing tlie reading Mr. Rcagau suggested that 1 .0 question of priv i lege was preseuted. Mr. Reach said that If the gentlemen ha(i allowed tbe reading te be concluded he would bave found that the charge was made that Capt Eads had been nu the lloer et the Heuso during Its sessions. Unfortunately, he said, that charge was true. He knew of his own knowledgo that it was true. He knew Capt Eads by sight, and had seen him en the lloer during the sessiens of the Heiue oarnestly engaged In conversation with members. Capt, Eads, with many ethers, had abused tlie privileges of the lloer. The fact was se well known that he deemed It unnecessary te ask for an investigation, but offered n resolution directing the doorkeeper te strictly enferce the rule regulating admis sion te the lloer. Mr. Reagan asked when Mr. Reach had seen Capt. Eads en the lloer T Mr. Reach said within the last ten days. Mr. Reagan said he had net seen him aud had no Idea if he ever was. Messrs, Clardy and Heard said that Cap tain Eads bad been confined te hl.s house by illuess for some day s. Mr. Reagau said that the Times' statement that the bill guaranteed nu anuual profit of S2,&00,000 te the rnllreail was incorrect. The bill guaranteed nu profit- He supposed that the purpose was te rnlse a bcandal, and croate n public sentiment against the bill before it had been consldeied by the Heuse, He did net believe that Capt Eads had beeu ou the lloer of tlie Heuso during the sessions. Mr. Reach replied that there was a question of veracity between Iho gentleman aud him. selfaud relterated hi previeus statement. Tlie resolution was laid ou the table. After some further talk about the non-en-fercoment of rules, the call of state was begun.
