The valedictory was delivered by Dr. Joseph
Carson, Professor of Materia Medlca, und Phar
macy. In this he dwelt upon the importance of
a right comprehension of the objects to be
aimed at in connection with professional
HUCCOSK.
Wisdom would dictate deliberate considera
tion of all the circumstances which may con
trol or Influence the result, wheuenterlug upon
any enterprise involving much responsibility,
and entailing with success or failure either
prosperity and happiness or dilllculty and dis
tress. In aiming at success, however, correot
and definite ideas should be entertained of its
nature and the means of its accomplishment,
for to enter upon the voyage of life without
them would be as senseless as the expedition ot
the mariner to distant lands without a thought
of where they lie, and destitute of the ordinary
helps of navigation. The rooks aud whirlpools
that are placed iu the track of every man's
existence are numerous and deceptive, and ere
toe may be aware of their proximity the bark
bo richly freighted with his resources may come
upon them, the victim of his heedlessness or
lolly. To the honorable und exalted spirit all
success Is not desirable. That which is the otl
eprlDg of unsettled principles, unsteady pur
poses and springs or action, must necessarily
be ephemeral aud evanescent; while that alone
which originates from a determinate plan of
operations, In which the objects of attainment
have been properly appreciated, whose mo
tives, both laudable and substantial, con
stitute the ground-work, can prove dura
ble and satisfactory. By the course which
you have pursued, it is clear that you have
lully appreciated the first aud most important
elements ol success adequate preparation to
perform the duties appertaining to the vocation
you have selected. The necessity of the obli
gation to acquire the requisite knowledge to
become safe and efficient practitioners of the
healing art, would appear to be undeniably a
Belf-apparent truth; but its full force and co
gency are frequently overlooked or lernored by
the public. Indeed, if there be one evil preva
lent In our day and generation, it is the as
sumption of duties and responsibilities for
which there is no fitness from previous train
ing, physical, moral, or intellectual.
The presumptuous mind of man Is undis
mayed by ignorance and incapacity, and urges
to tne arrogatlon of trust and confldeuce: to
which there can be given not even the shadow
of a title. In the mechanical arts, and those
that can be comprehended by the majority of
mankind, suoh arrogance cati be detected, and
contempt and ridicule are brought upon the
Individual who renders himself aineuable to
them. But beyond the pale ol the class alluded
to, there exist numerous occupations of which
the public have not the meaus of rlgatlyiudg
lng, of which no correct or adequate opinion

I.udlow and Peiree William li. -Mann, Esq..
District Attorney; T. Bradford Dwlght, Assist
ant District Attorney.
The attendance of persons this morning was
ns largo as usual. More ladies were present
than on the previous days of the trial.
The examination of the Commonwealth's
witnesses was resumed:
John Thomas sworn I live at No. 831 Buttonwood
street: 1 know the prisoner; I saw him on tne moru
Inglliat .Mrs. Miller was killed; I lirsl saw him from
ten minutes to 7 to ten minutea past; I could not tell
exactly, as uiv watch had run down, I saw him com
ing through tiarden street, on the west side, going Into
Buttonwood street; he turned up that street; I had a
clear view of him Irom Hie second story where I was;
I didn't take any notice of anything In his appear
ance different from what I have observed in him
belore; nothing about him attracted my attention; I
next saw him about twenty minutes pasts; I came
out of the house and crossed the street, und he crossed
below me; he wasgolug up Buttonwood street on the
south side, above Tenth; I was about the length of six
jiavements behind him: lam sure it was Williams: I
was at the corner ol Tenth and Buttonwood, and he
was about six doors above.
Wliliuiu btubln sworn lam a butcher; my place
ol business la at Ho. 439 Garden street; I remember
the day Mrs. Miller was killed: on the day before
(Tuesday) we killed bet ween 4 and 6 In the aiteruoon:
I killed lor l'echt that day: we killed theu
together, in the slaughter-house; the hogs bled
all in the same place; they were lying together;
the blood goes out with the water, wh'ch
we turn on when the hogs commence bleeding;
we had a visitor that day; It wusGotleib Williams; I
was splitting the lust hog when he came iu: he didn't
get a chunce to sue us kill; the boy was cleaning up
the slaughter-house; the water was still running; he
was cleaning up the hulr, dirt, etc.; the blood had
been ull washed out; alter the hugs were split we
carried them out; Williams looked at the hog, and
remarked tliat one was "a pretty fat hog," I took It
outside Into the yard; 1 am coutideut Williams was not
there when we were killing, and didn't have any
blood spirted on him; he stood at the side of the
slaughter-house when he made the remark; he was
there about live minutes; 1 didn't take auy more no
tice ol him, und didn't see hiin go out.
Cross-examination When he came there It was
between 4 und & o'clock; I couldn't tell to the minute;
the hugs are hung up by the hind legs when we split
them, and they are split down the centre; Williams
didn't Bit down; we had killed three hos; it takes
about an hour to kill three hogs: we generally
wiibIi the blood out as soon as It gets on the floor: 1 do
not remember of a half ot a hog falling down outside
and me picking it up, taking It inside and throwing it
down while GotleiO was there; 1 am certain there was
none fell; the yard is paved with(cohble-stones, with a
flutter ot brick; the blood runs down the gutter and
uto the culvert below Noble street; It is about half! a
square from our house; Williams came in there almost
every duy,
Samuel Duff sworn lam asheet-iron maker: I work
In Noble street, between Thirteenth und Broad, at
Messrs. Stewart fc Peterson's ; I saw the prisoner
once before 1 suw him here, lu Willow Btreet, be
tween Thirteenth and Broad: It was ou the night of
theisthof btplemuer last, about tea minutes past t)
o'clock.
Mr. Worrell objected to the witness making any
Btaiements which were not connected with the murder
ol Mrs. Miller.
Mr. Maun suid be Intended to prove by this witness
that this was the man that Williams said he had a
light with, and who tore his shirt sleeve off.
Mr. Wonell asked Mr. Maun to prove thut Williams
saiil such a thing.
The witness was Instructed not to answer any ques
tion without the sunctiou of the Court.
Mr.Muiiii then asked the question Are you the man
thin Williams alleged he had a quairel with, and a
light, and that you lore his shirt sleeve off? Ob
J ected to.
Mr. Mann Kach side must give the best evidence
they can, I want to prove a negative; that the occur
rence that he (Williams) Bneuks of in regard to tne
Irishman, about a tight didn't take place. 1 will prove
thut tills Ib the man who was sought by the prisoner
to prove this tucL I have p roots that this affair
took place on Tuesday.
Mr. Geudell Williams has never revealed the name
ot this man to the detectives, who closely examined
him, or to bis counsel.
Judge Budlow As the matter now stands before the
Court, we are or the opinion that this objection must
be sustained.
Mr. Mann I offer to prove by this witness that the
very language which Williams told the detectives
took place bvtween this mail aud himself on Wednes
day took place ou Tuesday night, at or about the place
Indicated by Williams, aud that this wilneas was
sought out by the prisoner as the man to prove thut

oltlcers.
Mr. Qendell We olilect to this, mav it nlnima vnnr
Honors, on the same ground as we objected to the
uiuer. in me nrsi place, ne torn tne detectives he wai
machinist. This man aDDears to be a sheet-irnn
maker, a totally different trade. In the second place.
it appears to nave been a dillerenl transact on. Both
transactions might have been true. He mar have had
aquurrel with this man in proceeding to the place. He
also might have had a quarrel with the machinist ou
mc next auy. i uure is no evidence submitted by the
Commonwealth that has proved this Is the same
place indicated by the prisoner, who states that It
wus at Twelfth and willow. The place alluded to
here Is In Willow, between Thirteenth aud Broad, a
square and a half off.
juugei.uuiow i ue question to determine is, Ho the
Commonwealth the right to show by competent tes

that he whs competent to irive an account ot a trans

being cross-examined, test the credloillty of his
evidence. I find that in this country the question has
arisen, und the leaning ot the American Court In
In lavor of It is pronounced in the case which
ia now before me. We. therefore, believe that we
must first determine whether this witness Is aware of
the nature of an oath, and secondly, whether he Is
competent In point of understanding competent to
be sworn. His examination yesterday, and the testi
mony ot the medical w itnesses this morniug, satisfy
us that he ia aware ol the nature of an oath.
This testimony, coupled with the testimony of the
witness himself when Interrogated yesterday with
out being sworn, renders It somewhat difficult to de
cide whether he should be permitted to testily as to
tne general tacts connected with this case.

that he conversod with bim with the object of ascer

the Interview which he had with the witness;
whan he brought the garments to him he states thai

The case of the Commonwealth vs. A'sop.
Urown Waters, waa resumed. We reported
yesterday and Tuesday the case that the Com
mon wealth presented to the Jury.
It was from Philip Rice that the money was
alleged to have beou fraudulently obtained, and
not James 11. Thornlev, as was before reported
through mistake. Mr. 'I horn ley was the first
gt ntleinan whom the defendants spoke to 0011
itrnlng the land. Mr. Rica was after wards In
d ced to pay 11000.
After offering in evidence the deeds of tho
hinds, the searches of the record and the exem
plification of a survey of the patents of the
lands, In contradiction to the statement that
the defendants ownexl and held a B'khI anil
marketable title to the tract of land In ones
Hon, and to the statomont of the land being in
West Virginia, the Commonwealth closed.
The defense offered no evidence, but went to
the Jury on the weakness of the Common
wealth's case. The defense first argued the
testimony of the prosecutor. Joseph I Caven,
who was a conveyauceremployed in the sale of
the land, and wbo testified that when Mr Price
called upoH him to asK bis Judgment ns an
expert concerning tho title of the defendants
in the land, he made a thorough search into
tlio matter, and upon the brief given him by
defendants, told hi in that he thought It good.
Now, if Mr. Hlce had been deceived at all, was
he not deceived by Caven himself, and not by
the defendants? When the defendants made
the contract with Mr. Caven as a conveyancer,
he did not say that the title was good, or that
it wns not good; but that they had done nothing
since ihey bave had it to impair it; and upon
this he, Mr. Caven, as an expert conveyancer,
took the deed and contract.
The statement that parties in New York were
negotiating for the purchase of this laud for oil
working, and were likely to buy it at an early
tiny, was not contradicted, and upon this state
ment Mr. Caven was quick to take tho contract.
Alderman McCahen testified that he had gone
clown there (where?) and had been nnable to
find the tract of land. Ve may have gone to
the light tract, and he may have gone to the
wrong one. But whether he lound it or not, is
nothing in this case. The bill of Indictment
says the land It In Kanawha county, West Vir
ginia, but is not owned by the defendants; and
as to the title of the laud, several experts, seve
ral highly respectable lawyers, and a convey
ancer, had been deceived in it, if it were not
good; and might not the defendants also be de
ceived in It? They said, if it were bad, they
were sorely deceived.
The defendants had given their Judgment
notes for the amount of the purchase money,
alter the title was alleged to be had. They had,
so far as they were able, repaid the complain-
ants tneir money. Tins does not look line
fradulent intentions or actions, it looks fair
and honorable. In a civil court, not one cent
ol this money could have been recovered.
The purchasers had bought the land during
the oil mania and held it until the market
broke until the death of President Lincoln.
Then, while the market was b ranking, and
no one could be Induced to buy these lands,
tl ey kick up a row about the title, and turned
to these defendants for their money, line the
cnild who eats bis cake and then cries for bis
penny.
As to the title, the first in time is first in
l ight, that is, wbere a man depends for his pro
perty upon a written deed. Aud in order to
prove the first title bad, an outstanding, good
title must be shown in some one else, not an
intruder or squatter. .
Records from the State of Virginia, of the sale
ol this laud for taxes, was given la evidence by
the Comnfpnwealth.
But these were all posterior to the date of the
title of the defendants, aud no one knows that
these taxes were not paid. Also, the lands were
said to be, not in Kanawha county, West Vir
ginia, as stated by defendants, but in Fayette
county, Kentucky. Hut Fayette county, Ken
tucky, is nearly in the centre of the State, and
It is a geographical impossibility that Kanawha
county. West Virginia, could extend 500 or60(J
miles'into the State of Kentucky, So argued
the delense. The case is vet unconcluded.
ELECTION INTELLIGENCE.
NEW HAMPSHIRE.
SCATTERING RETURNS THE GAINS AND LOSSES
SENATORS AND COUNCILLORS ELECTED.
Judging from the returns received from New
Hampshire, General Harriman's (Republican)
majority will be little, if any, less than 3600.
This is a Republican loss of over 1000, the
majority in-1866 being 4G56. This decrease is
attributed by the Republicans to the increased
efforts of the Democrats, who have largely in
creased their vote over last year, and in part
to the failure of the friends of Mr. Stearns, the
opposition candidate for the Republican nomi
nation, to vote. The following will show the
towns in which the Democrats made the most
of their gains:
Alton, 44- Auburn, 22; Bedford, 17; Bridge
water, 14; Bristol, 18; Boscowen, 22- Canaan, 70;
Claremont43; Concord, 107; Croyden, 13; Dal
ton, 19; Dunbury. 14; Franklin, 22; Grafton, 31;
Gllmanton.il; Haverhill, 28; Hebron, 14; Hol
derness, G8; Hillsboro, 12; Laconia, &; Landaff,
11; Lee, 14; Lebanon, 2(1; Littleton, 60: Man
chester, 93; Mason, 33; Merrimack, 2.1; New
market, 21; Nashua, 24; Newport, 47; Newcastle,
73; Northumberland, 13; Oxford, 31; Ports
mouth. 247; Plymouth, 15; Salem, 16; Sutton,
V Saubornton, 15; Tamworth, 20; Warner, 31;
Walpole, 12; Wolfborough, 20; Warren, 20; War
ner. 39. Total. 1585.
The Republican gains are mostly small, and
the following are the more important:
Bennington, 25: Canterbury, 14; Dover, 41;
Hopklnton, 12; Mollis, 13; Hancock, 18; Lyme, 18;
Lisbon, 14; Medbury, 13; Petersborongh, 22;
Salisbury, 14; Somers worth, 32; Washington, 21.
Total. 298.
The net Democratic gain in the 57 towns
named is 1287. The Democrats claim that
General Harriman's majority will not exceed
2000. They also claim the Second Councillor
District.
The Congressional vote will probably run
ahead of the vote for Governor, as in many
cases the name of the Governor was cut from
the ticket. Very few scattering votes were
cast. The Democrats have probably carried
Merriniatik, Belknap, Carroll, and Coos coun
ties. Grafton is in doubt. Rochester, the
town of the Hon. J. II. Ela, the candidate for
Congress in the Third District, shows a Re
publican gam of 109. Nashua, the town of
General Stevens, shows a loss of 22, but
General Stevens runs considerably ahead of
his ticket.
Of the Senators, Tarker of No. 6, and San
born of No. 4, are re-elected. The House will
number among its members General Griffin,
of Keene, Hamlin, of Dover, the Hon. W. II.
V. Hackett, of Portsmouth, L. D. Stevens, of
Concord, and Ezra S. Stearns, of Rindge, the
last two elected for the fourth term. Page, of
Warren, is ai prominent Democrat, re-elected.
Mr. Stevens will probably be Speaker of the
next House. The Democrats gain two Assem
blymen in Portsmouth. Hazen Bedel, of
Colebrook, is elected Councillor in the Fifth
District again. The vote in the Second Coun
cillor District will lie very close, with tho
chances in- favor of Alexander II. Tilton,
Democrat. The Democrats have elected Sena
tors in the Sixth, Seventh, and Eighth Dis
tricts, and possibly in the Fourth; the other
eight are radical, i ,
A full House of Assembly consists - of 326
members. It is by no means probable that the
Democratic gain will be in the same ratio
throughout the State. The Republican malo
rity in the Assembly last year was DO. the
telegraphic returns indicate a majority of 80
this year, and the Demoorata concede 78, .
. Duty on Race Horses A parliamentary
return just issued states that the duty on
race horses in England last year was 8424,
being an increase of XU78 on the preceding
year.

The Money Market has undergone but llttl"
change since our last notice. The rate for call
loans is 6 per cent., and mercantile obligations
range from 7 per cent, upwards, according to
tbe reputation of drawers and endorsers.
Among the merchants there are uulversal com
plaints ol inactivity. The course ot prices dur
ing the late months has not been what would
be very generally supposed, from the dullness
ot trade and the necessities under which many
holders of products have been placed. Through
out the interior there bas been a pro
tracted stringency In the Money Market, and
at the centres of trade a curtailment ot the
usual iacilites for credit, so that, as a rule,
stocks of merchandise and produce have been
carried with difficulty. The state of politic
and of the trade of tbe country bus produced
a very marked caution among lenders, which,
in connection with a chronic expectation of
lower price?, has naturally caused merchant
to realize upon tbeir goods as early as possible,
a course which has produced a settled weakness
in the market. On the other hand, there ha
been a very general curtailment of consump
tion, especially of those products least essential
to subsistence and comfort.
Government loans closed quietly at 109J Ml
for the 1881b; 10iJ for the 5-20s, 18G2; 107 for
the 1864s; 107J for the 18G5s; D7 for the llMOs;
and 107J for the 7'30.
Stale and City loans were not offered to anv
extent, and prices were without change. The
new issues ol the latter were sold at 101.
The business In Railroad chares was small,
without much change from yesterday's quota
tions. Beadlnfr Railroad closed at 61, wltu
large sales at this figure; Camden and Amboy
Kailroad sold at 13U; 66J was bid lor Pennsyl
