The long-iuikcd-of "Jumel vVili l.c," which, aticr several postponements, was t oowo positively lor to-day iu this Court, was called promptly at 10 o'clock, and the par tie on both sides announced themselves "ready.-' 1'laimlrj was represented uy Charles OConor, Aaron Vauderpuel, and Martin huiitn as counsel, and the deiondaiits by K. W. Koughton, 11. L. Clinton, ex-Sur-rogaie Bradford, and others. It hud bt:n rumored tor Bevernl duvs o.ist tnm. a sort of coiuproinirc hal been effected between the contestant of tbe will and the executors, which would Materially eimpiily the rm-e and tiiorten the trial; and this proved to be so. Wnat toe terms of this compromise ate were not distinctly brought to light during the trial, uud neither paity appear lo be auxious to rive ttie aiticulars, of what is nobody's business but tneir own. From what could be ascertained, however, it appears tunt the uxecuiots, cm tripling their ability to maintain tue validity tl the Mil beloie a itry, accepted the otter ci Mr. Chace to pay onto, tbe proceeds ot fti'nie Jiiiut-I's pn.petty all the specific beo.ue.sts ot the will, consisting of $o,OOU to the Church of tue Intuces'ion at Gurmansville, besides a lot of liiad on which to erect a building; $.000 to ice pasdxir, Kev. J. Howard Nmlih; VlOUO each, more or less, vo some half-a-do.en cnan table institulions, besides all the expenses or the iuit thus far, they relinquishing their claim to the residuary portion ot the estate in which, by the terms of the will, they were to share rqimlly in proportion to the amount of the seve ral bequc ets. Tb is 'i es iu uary " portion of t he estate comprises luree-fourths or more ot the wnole property, so that in raliy it was equivalent to Hiving up the entire contest. Half a lout, how ever, or even a tenth ot a loaf, is better than no bread, and they will nrobablv net us mum nd the tccmtiio M'me Jumel m her soun i mind ever intended to be-low upon rel gtous or churi table institutions. The remainder ot the esiaie, comprising probably a quarter ot a milli m of dollars, will, therefore, go to the contestant, Neibon Cbaee. who. as appeared from the evi dence, has purchased for the peitv sum of $30,0(i0 all the right, title, aud Interest of the other heirs. So thai Mr. Cuace tiai made a deemed hit. Ho dilliculty was fouud in emoanuelling a iury, only one man having made up his mind on be subject, and alter the jury was sworn, Mr. O'Uouor opened the case m behalt of the coi.tcstant, briefly stating the object of the suit, and rehearsing ihe leading poimsin iheli:eof me tesiaior, ju me Jumei. He said she was of humble origin, heme tbe daughter oi a common sailor, oi Newport, It. I. In her youth she cume 10 tec city with her his'er. durinit the beginning of this century, where both ot them were mar ried the loimer to M. Jumel, and the bitter to a Mr. Jones. Ihe lour children ot Mrs. Jones were tbe heirs-at-law, and were umong the I'lfuniitlain ibis action. M'me Jumel herself, the counsel said, uever hno any children, but she adopted , one , ol the children of her sister, who ' sub sequently inamei Nelson Chice. the other f)uiiiiiu iu mis acuou. ine t'reittest aneclion lor the children of her sister and of Mrs. Chace was always mauiiested by M'me Jumel no to the var 1850. In the winter ot 1854 aud 1W6 the decline of her mental piwers com menced. She had just returned from France, where.! a marriage was contracted between one of her nieces, a daughter of Mrs. Chace, and a Mr. Perry, of pood family; and in a letter to this family she announced 'her inten tion to bequeatn the whole of her property to her eistei's children. After 1855 rhe become a monomaniac on the subject of her apprehended assassination, and organized what she called a "legion" lor her protection. Her best friends and relatives, Mr. Chace among the rest, she believed were engaged in a conspiracy to'poison her. She was alillcted with a variety of delu sions, among which was one thai the bad the power of miraculous cure by the layinir-on ot hands, etc. While she was in this condition ol mental delusion, amounting to complete In sanity, the will now in questiou was made. The will gives, tirt, sixteen lots of land to build a church on, and $70,uu0 lor building the church and parsonage. The pastor ot the church was John Howard Smith, who also received a legacy of $5000. Mrs. Pcitv. her niece, was left merely the income ol $10,000, the principal to go to her heirs at her death, in case she left auy. Various other bequests were made to divers charitable societies, all of which were to receive theii pro rtita shure of the residue of the estate utter tbe bequests were paid. Mr. Chacn and tbe other plaintifls in this action were willing and had offered to pay these various bequests, including the $5000 to Mr. Smith, but the de fendants,' in case the will was maintained, would have their share ot tbe residue, excluding the lawful heirs from all partislpation ot the pro perty. Nelson Chace sworn Am one of the plaintifls in this action; was acquainted with M'me Jumel for many years; became acqjalnted with her in lHlti, at Otsego, und subsequently married her daughter, and lived tn her family thirty-four years; Mons. Jumel, her husband, died in Mav, 16X2: am familiar with all ol M'me Jumel's property; her property in New York, all ncept some lots on the Seventh avenue, was Mr. Juniel's property; my wite died on the 5th May, 1843: 1 married her in January, 1832; two or my children, Eliza and William, are livina; Airs. Maria Jones was the niotuer of my wife; she was boru in 1801 or 1802; a more strong affection never existed between two human beings than between my wife and M'me Jumel; on her death M'me Jumel took to her bed and remained there a week; alter my wife's death M'me Jumel took my children into her family, and nurtured them like a mother until my daughter got married, and until she became . infirm and insane; M'me Jumel went to Europe in 1863, taking witli her my children, and re turning when my daughter married Mr. Perry In Fiance; while travelling abroad she bore the name ot Eliza B. Burr, having formerly been married to Aaron Burr. Counsel here read a letter from M'me Jumel to the lather of Mrs. Perry, the man who mar ried her niece, dated Paris, May, 1854. In this letter ehe states that her property is worth about ten million francs, and that she could assure to her niece five million francs. Witness was shown a letter from M'me Jumel to himself, dated at Nice, iu Italy, which bo said he recognized as the one received by him from its author. The letter states M'me Jiimel's intention to go to Rom; that she will be under the necessity of spending large amounts of money for his daugnter, in purcuasimr court tresee, ft ctiera, and askini? for a letter of credit to the Rothschilds lor $2000. She also relates her narrow escape from shipwreck, and evinces a very friendly tone throughout towards Mr. Chace and his lamtly. Toe Mters exhibited to the witnoB Foster were also read, and exhibited the most tender attection on the part of M'me Jumel towards her niece, who at that time had been married to Paul Perry, and was living in Boston. One ol the letters is written to ber atece husband, exborttnir him to take good "are of his wife, and prophesying all sort of hsrirtness from the union. Another, written to W Pern's father, congratulates him and her ji ntU ftUHpicious uuignof theii children. Another letter from M'm Jnmel to Mrs. fhaoc, w hen be was a school girl, dated iu 117, ex hibits all the affection ol a mother for her child. Witness continued Alter M'me Jumol's re turn from France, in 1854, I noticed a remark able change in her demeanor: she got up a com- fiany, which she called her ''legion," number ng about twenty bos, and dressed (hem In fantastic uniform, aud marched them about the house like a military compauv; my on William, about 14 years of aae, was the commander ol the company; I had a uniform, but never wore it; etiards were stationed hi nigh', alaims were given, and the whole ''gtirri'on" was frequently aroued in the night, and a general dishirbwce created; while a, the dicner-table in Paratoea, In the summer of 1855, I noticed a shock to M'me Jumel, and kuo put her hand to her head, aud complained of pain and ot seeing things floating before her vision; while rcturninir with her to the city in tbe cars, she fprang trom my side in the car and ran up to a party of strangers, and, putting her mouth to their ears, gave a learlul shriok ; after we got home she still labored under this same montal excitement; she accused my son of havtng un screwed a wardiobo so that it might fall and kill her; she hnally inslted that he should leave tue house; when he left she placed a bl ek patch on th face ot a picture of my son which she had oidered Dainted in Home? mv on frequently called to see her alter that, and was trenfed kindly by her; she even set him up iu Dusines8 alter that, but always Insisted that he intended to kill her; sue ottcn charged my6elt and daughter and others with an intent to poison her by putting drus in her tea and her food; 1 frequently had to eat or drink tbe food brst. In order to convince her that there was no foundation lor her snsnlcions; there was not the shadow of foundation for these charges: there never was a person treated more kindly and affectionately than the was by all ot my tamily; she also for three or four years previous to her death charged three or tour of her uelghbois of the highest respectability with robbing her; among her other delusions she ininginea sue had been in Heaven, and described the wonderful sights sho had been there; she also engaged men to dig und blust rocks to recover treasure which he said bad been secreted in the earth by wealthy citizens durinc the Ameiican llevo luiion, after Genprnl Washineton took posses sion of New York: she claimed that she had icpeaiedly cured diseases by the laytn '-on of hands, nud was a victim to various other delu sions; in my judgment she was not m any time during the year 1KC3 of sound' mind; she took enormous quantities ol sweet-oil for years, being un.ler the delusion that this was i sove reign lemedy for all her Ills, including the elfects of the poison which she imagined was given her. John J. Crane sworn Am a physician in this city: attended M'me Jumel from June, 18K) until the time of her death; the hrst time 1 called on her she was suffering from eating strawberries: she said she hurl pUt i,.,p.. baskets, hut that he usually ate lwentv-1'our baskets, but she said she hau taken a tumbler lull of sweet-oil. and that would cure her; the next day I called, and she did not recollect that I had been there hpinr. she ol ten expressed tone her power of curing disease by ihe laying-on of hunds; she fre quently spoke about the couspimcy that was or?aniw)d to kill her, and meutioubd that the wardrobe had,, De.en so plaued as to lull on and cru.-b h r; her mind, iu my judgmeut, was much lmpa'i id by ane aud disease; Dr. Clark and uiy seli consulted together regarding her condition, and both ot us concluded that no will sue might make would stand; she was undoubtedly ol un sound mind; she Miflered from gastric derange ment and from di-ease ot the kiuneys. Alonzo Clark sworn I visited M'me Jumel in company with Dr. Crane, as consulting pnysi ctau. in March 20, 1863; she was in feeole health, sutlenng from gastric disturbance and disease of the kidneys; she talked at random, and labored under various forms or hallucina tion; she was perpetually under the influence of some delusion: her reasouiug was nood enough from her premises, but her premises were gene ral. y fulso; Dr. Crane sooke lo nie of ber desire to make a will, aud 1 stated to him that, in my judgment, she was not capable of performing such an act. Counsel here read the will of M'me Jumel, made in July, 1851, whea she is claimed to have been in sound mind, in which, after several small bequests to various individual friends and chai itabie institutions, she bequeaths the b;ilk of her property, in trust, tor the wife of Mr. Chace, aud after her death to be distributed equally between the children of Mrs. Chuce aud the children of ber sister, Mrs. Jone-. The will appoints Francis F. Beige and Charles O'Conor us executors. Nelson Chace recalled Mrs. Jones, mentioned iu the will just rea l, wao the sister of M'me Jdtnel; the other persons mentioned (naming them) were children of Mrs. Jones aud other relations. fcliza Jumel Perrv sworn Am the wife ot Paul R. Perry; was a niece and a.lopted daugh ter ot M'me Jumel: my mother was the wife of Mr. Chace; I was born in M'me Jumel's house, aud lived with her till I was married; I remem ber tbe last season sne was at Saratoga, in the summer of 1859; after my return from France, iu 1854, I noticed a ereat change in M'me Jumel's mentul capacity; when she returned from her last visit to Saratoga she ohowed symptoms of insanity; she accused Uo all of attempting to poison her; she said I carried arsenic in my pocket to put in her tea; after making those charges 6he would treat me with the ereatest afleciion, and say how much she loved me; yet she continued to recur to these charges up to the time of her death. Paul R. Perry sworn (Witness shows two letters from M'me Jumel, dated PoriH, 1854.) These letters were received by my father while the marriage negotiations between myself and M'me Jumel's niece were going on. ' No cross examination. William C. Chace sworn Am the son of Nelson Chace; was brought up by M'me Jumel; ceased to live with her iu 1850, when I was compelled to leave the house on account of her cbargiug me with attempting to assassinate her; previous to that time she was very affec tionate towards me; I was her favorite; one nleht she came down stairs while I was s'ttlng at tbe supper table, and accused me ot unsure sv ing tbe wardrobe so that it would fall on her; she was in a furious passion about it; 1 attempted to 'eason with ber, but to no purpose. Benjamin Sheller sworn I lived with M'me Jumel three vears from 1857: in 1850 she charged mself aud William Chace with taking the cover off the wardrobe so that it would fall and kill her; theie was no truth at all in the charge; she ir?,cl,,d. mt' lo dier ,or olfl 00 tae premises while I lived with her: 1 didn't lind auy gold. (Laughter in Court.) Kiina J. Frankell sworn-M'me Jumel was my aunt; William and Maria Jones were my lather and mother; I knew M'me Jumel from VTlVl0 e"ofage; I was born In 1850; up to the death ol my father and mother there was always a friendly tnterconr hpte,. M'me Jumel and our lamily; there never was any dispute about the relationship; M'me Jumel sent my sister and younaest brother and mv sell to Connecticut to school; toy iUegt brotnr was sent to Paris by her. for his education before she went to Paris the last time I was with her at Saratoga and was introduced by her as her niece; Mrs. Chace wa9 the daughter of my mother by another man to whom, 1 sup. pose, she was married. Stephen Jumel Jones sworn Am a brother of the last witness; my brother -m-law, Mr. Mad dock, died in 1864 (paper shown to witness) this paper is In Mr. Maddock's handwriting (this is tbe paper lound by the witness Wal grove among Judge lnglis papers, Bttached to a draft at M'me Jumel's will, made b? fclm); the pai ties named in this paper are the true names ol the be'rs of M'me Jumel. Mr. O' Conor here read a conveyance of lu cent date fr m the heirs-at-law of M'me Jumei, in which, in consideration of S30,00d, they re linquish to Nelson Chace all their ngnt and in terest in the property of M'tne Jumel. William C. Wetmcre sworn M'me Jumel w as a client of mine from 1820 to tbe time of her death; 1 saw her at Saratoga on her lat visit tb re; sfce spoke to me then about making hor will; subsequently saw her frequently at her nouse on Washington Heights, when vhe spoke ahout msklng her will, and asked roe to select tome of the suitable institutions to whirl she ought to pit e a port'ou of her property; she said she did not want to trive aiiytnimr to reli gious societies but, to institutions of charity; In 18C0 I bad a long talk with her about her will, but could not get out of her what she wished to do with her property; she was continually talking ahout her lile in France, her driving a coach and four on the Boulevards, her acquaintance with the Duchesfl de Berry and others, and I could not pin her mind down to the subject of tbe will, and gave it up; since 1867 I did not consider her capable of executing a will, and I always wrote down whatever she wished at the moment with regard to the dispo sition of her property, knowing very well that it could never be contirmed as her will; mv object, as a friend of tue family, was to keep cr Ktrol of the old lady, lest. If I refused to do as sL-e wished, she might go to some other lawyer, who not knoing her as well 1 did, would permit ber to do worse with her property. Tbe plaintiffs here rested their case. T11E DEKkNSC. ; Without any opening address to the jury, the delense culled as the first witness John M. Holland, who teutied that he was one of the witnesses to the last, will of M'mo Jumel. 1 have looked over the copy ot my deposition in this case, made before 1 went to Kurope last summer, and it is correct, Kev. John Howard Smith sworn I am a de fendant in this cause; first went to Carmausviile in the spring of 1854, as tbe rector ot the Church of the intercession there; M'me Jumel owned a pew in the church at that time; in l86!i I found her Dew occupied by another party; I did not see M'me Jumel from 1859 till 1802; at that time she sent for me find I went; .she told m she had been sick, and should not probably live lontr, and wished me to dispose of her pro perty; she said sue wished to cive something for building a chuu-h, and asked me if $100,000 would be enough; she nleo said she wished to bequeath me a legacy, and ih sired to will her property to charitable individuals and so cieties; I told her I should decliue any personal lceacy, and also declined, until 1 nad time to fully consider the matter, to advise ber in any way with relcrence to her will; she after ward's sent for nie aesm. when she tuki.'il mo tr h,-i,. I her a lawyer lo make her will, which 1 declined u to (!o, as I did not wish to be mixed up In the u.-iMi-i; suubcqueuiiy i saw ner acain, when i told her 1 would withdraw my opposition to her n-MviDsrine a personal leira'iy; this was alter 1 had consult"!) Kev. JV. Tv'ng, and nil also spoken to Mr. O'Conor and Mr. Bradiord (wit ness shows a paper); tuat is a copy ol a letter i sent to M'me Jumel. A new copy of the will was made, at her re quest, and no change in tbe wi!l was made from thai time till me will waa executed; no person took hold of M'me Juioel'R hand or guided ber in any way on the occasion of exe- I cuting the will; I had never heard auy siiL'g',h- I lion of the incompetency ot M'me J.imel at that time to make a will; I had never seen anythinsr to indicate such incompetency, aud had I sup- : posed her in liny way incompetent I would i have scorned to have had anything to do with it; 1 believe her now'to have been fully compe tent; at the time of the execution of the will I I supposed that Mr. Chace and Mrs. Perry were ' both inreicsted in the retiduary clause, mid never beard to the contrary until titter M'me ! Jumel's death. The evidence for both sides closed here, and, i bv conseLt ol counsel, the cae was submitted ; to the Court without argument on either side. i J mice Barnard briefly chureed the jury, tell- I inir them the simple and only question lor them i to determine was whether M'me Jumel, at tne time i f the execution of the will, was ot sound mind. On this question the only evidences was ' in favor ot the Dlaintills, who were seeking to break the will. That evidence consisted of the testimony of the lelatives and intimate friends ; ot the deceased, and of skilful aud accotuplishd physicians. It was lor the iurvto determine whether, on this evidence, the will in question could be cou- j sidcred the act of a person of sound mind, such as would legally quality her for the execatiou of such nn instrument. Alter an absence ol five minutes the iury re- turned with a verdict lor the plaintiffs, that M'nx' Jumel was ot uusouud niiud at the time 1 ot the execution of the will. NEW SENATOR FROM NEW JERSEY. Frederick T. Frelinghuyscn, of Newark, At-toiney-Ueneral of the Mate, has tieen appointed by (iovernor Ward United States Senator pro tent, from New Jersey, vice the Hon. William Wriebt, deceased. The appointment was abso lutely required by the Constitution, though it holds only till the second Tuesday following the meetkng of the new Legislature, when a Senator will be regularly chosen to serve thenceforward till March 4, 1809. Mr. Freliug husen is still a yonne man, but of eminent ability, sound principles, and great personal worth. The Newark Daily Advertiser says: "This is the third Freiiughuysen who has held the position ot Senator from the State ot New Jersey. The first was Frederick Freling hnyFCii, of Revolutionary fame, who is believed to have killed the Hessian t'ominauder. Colonel Kalil, at the hattle of Trenton, who was made Major-Ceneral by Washington in 1700, aud was elected a United States Seuator m 179o; hold ing ihe oflice for three years only, when he re ipned ontttccount of ill heulih. The second ot IU" name was Theodore Frelinghuysen, who was Senator from New Jersey from 1820 to I8:i.v was subsequently Chancellor of the University of New York: was a candidate for the Viee I'reMdcuc.y in 1844, with Henry Clay: was for many years President of the American Bibl h'ocicty, and finally ended his public life as President ol Rutgers' College. II, as Longfel low cays, , J.Ives of trreat man all remind us We can make our lives tublinie -'here are very few sous of great men who protii liy the lesson. The dignity of family nttme Jalse, wheu uot honorably sustained and th idleness begoiten by family fortune are obsta cles rather than helps In the race of life. O.ir new Senator is one of the few instance where Hie ambitions and dignities of the scion are not buried iu the graves of his fathers, lie who has I'ucetdois, in thu, country, must rise in spite of thein. , "To meet the menacing incidents of our transition period, we need not only a Congress strong in majorities, but strong in Integrity and intellect, with members familiar, by long habit und study, with those pivotal ideas on which the social orgauizat'on reposes. In the appoint-' ment of Mr. Frelinghuysen, the (Iovernor has recognised these necessities. Mr. Frelinghuysen has an honorable record. As a jurist, he holds a commanding position at home and abroad Still young, and in the full vieor of life, he takes rank as one of the ablest of our lawyers, and las attained a brilliant success in our hieher courts. As a publicist and a student of political economy, his opinions have become law with a large portion of the educated mind of New Jeisey. Not eager to rush into tbe political field, never himself a seeker for oflice, his ap pearance on the rostrum, in all the political cam paigns when great principles were at take has awared us of masterly arguments based on'pro lound convictiot8.As g politician, Mi. Kreiuug- hiijsen dates his Republicanism back to tbe time of the disruption of the Whig party. In 1MJ0 he attended thu Chicago Convention, and at that farly time indicated his distrust of the then popular leaders who have just failed in their attempt to destroy the party. The eleehon ol Governor Ward a vear since resulted in nis appointment to the oflice of Attorney-Ceneral of the State-a place he.will vacate for. we h pe, si tne other equally faithful and accomplished public servant. On the Immediate isue or the hour we can confidently speak of Mr. Freling huysen as nn advanced Republican, earnestly devoted to the Contrressional policy, and a stem opponent of that dangerous tendency towards the UEnrpation of the legislative function which the President has so otfensively made manifest.''
