The Speaker of the llonse on the Politi cal Sltnatlon Eighteen Hundred and Seventy-Six to Find tbe Nation United Who are to be Admitted to Congress from the South, Etc. From the New York Papers of to-day. At the Union League Club House in Union Square.at a reception given to Speaker Colfax on Monday evening, after the delivery of his eeture at Irving Hall, at about 10 o'clock, Mr. John Jay, the President of the Club, upon taking the Chair, introduced Mr. Colfax to the meeting. Mr. Colfax, on rising, was greeted with cheers. ' He spoke as follows: SPEECH Or MR. COLFAX. It is easy, Mr. President aud gentlemen of the Union League Club, when trebly armed with the merits ufa good cause, to bear or an swer the attacks of enemies; but It Is always difficult to reply to the cordial greetings and the partial language of vulued friends. Faith ful us 1 have ulwnys striven to be to principle and duty, the lonocontinued confidence of my Immediate constituents bus been both an In. centlveanda reward, Lut when gentlemen, conspicuous as yourselves In tills great metro politan city. Identified with this noble organi sation on which the Government leaned In tbo darkest hours of trial and peril, Join with them in tnls Indorsement, I scarcely know what words to use as a flttingacknowledginent. and can only say "would that I were worthier." Wesearceiy renllKe(ond mnstspouk. again ofOur Country as In the lecture balls an hour ago), how rapidly aud yet how gloriously we are making hibtory: but posterity will rend It on the open pages of onr country's annals. Sir years as?o how brief It seems but a fraction of an indi vidual's life but a breath in the life of a nation the banners of rebellion waved over hostile armies and stolen forts from the Potomac to the Klo Grande, aud the onlooking world predicted the certain downfall of the Itepublic. Now, thanks to our gallant armies and their gallaut commanders Grant the inflexible Sherman the conqueror BUerldan the Invincible and all their fearless compatriots on sea and shore, but one nag waves over the land the flag that Washington loved, and that Jackson, and ticott, and Taylor adorned with tiieir brilliant vic toriesthe nag dearer to us lu all its hours of peril than when gilded by the sunshine of prosperity aud tanned by the zephyrs of peace, at last triumphant, unques tioned, unasgalled. Six years ago millions of human beings, born ou American soil, created by the same Divine Father, destined to the same eternal hereafter, were subjeet to sale like the swine of the sty or the beasts of the field, and our escutcheon was dimmed and dis honored by the stain of American slavery. To-day auction-blocks and manacles and whipping-posts are. through God, things of tne past, while the slave himself has become the citizen, with the freeman's weapon of protec tion, the ballot, In bis own right hand. (Ap plause.) Nor can we forget, while rejoicing over this happy contrast, the human agencies bo potential in its accomplishment. First and conspicuous among the rest rises before my mind the tall form of a martyred President, whose welcome step no mortal ear shall ever listen to again. Faithful to his oath, faithful to his couutry, faithful to the great armies his word called to the field, he never swerved a hair's breadth from his determina tion to crush this mighty Rebellion, and all that gives it aid and comfort and support. (Applause.) Unjustly aud bitterly denounced by his enemies and yours as an usurper and despot, compared to Nero and Caligula, and all other tyrants whose base deeds blacken the pages-of history, your noble League stood by him amid this tempest of detraction, cordially and to the end; aud you have now your abun dant vindication and reward. Though tne torch of slander was lit at every avenue of his public life while he lived, the civilized world became mourners at his coffin; and with those libellous , tongues hushed, our whole laud enshrines bis memory to-day with tlie Father of the Country he saved. Agalu, when in the very erisls of the nation's agonies, he struck with the battle-axe of the war power against slavery as the cause of all our woes, you stood by him upholding his hands and strengthening him lu that eventful con flict. Enemies assailed you with epithet and Invective. You were called negro worshippers, fanatics, and radicals. But on the stump, at the polls, and In Congress we all faced the issues fearlessly, and the world-accursed system went down forever and forever. (Applause.) No thanks to our opponents lor this beneficent vnnBnmmntlon. But. even our enemies being our Judges, how magnificently are we endowed! "Who dares now wag bis tongue against it? Who repeats the slanders heaped upon you as it were but yesterday ? Not one! Notoue! Yours was the contest; you bore the opprobrium; aud yours the victory. And your children, aud your children's children will rise up to call you blessed, because you dared, despite the wrath of tral ors South and the lnvec tlveB of your opponents North, to strike this giant array from turret to fouudatlon stone, even amid the agonies and throes of civil war, and to crush it out in this fair laud forever. But other duties to the country yet remained to be performed; and you, and those who thought with you, girded your loins for the woik. The Thlrty-nluth Congress, the noblest and most'patriotlcbodv of men I have ever seen assembled at the Capitol during my dozen years of r ublic service, wisely rejecting the Ill-advised pol.cy of an Executive whose highest ambition and desire seem to havebeeu to destroy the party that has elevated him to power, proposed a Constitutional amendment, embodying great Principles, that they deemed should be embo Led Irrevocably In the national Constitution as fitting guarantees for loyal reconstruction. Although endorsed overwhelmingly by the loyal States at the ballot-box, the Kebel States, hardening their hearts, spurned and rejeowd it. and scoffed at its frainers and endoisers. And then guided, as 1 believe, by the .same Providence which gave our armies victory alter victory, as soon as the nation had written "Liberty for all" upon Uer banners, Congress enacted the Military Reconstruction bills of March 2 and March 24. opening the ballot boxes to the loyal regardless of race or color, disfranchising for the present the leaders of tne Kebellion, and laying down the terms, and the only terms on whioh the rights forfeited by this bloody war could be resumed. And this firmness and devotion to lhe right 1 bringing forth its legitimate fruit with an alacrity unexpected to many, and with an acquiescence expeeted by but lew, the vast majority In the Mouth are Ignoring all their life long prejudices, and has tening to accept these terms. Nor need I say to you that, having carefully and hastily elabo rated these laws, having passed them and then reoaBsed them over the inevitable veto of the Executive, the great party which has thus be come responsible for them Intend to stand by them falthfullyland literally, if their terms are comnlied with by the Kebel Slates in good faith ind without evasion. (Applause.) They wild be branded with dishonor and the r tame tarnished forever if they did not. But it 1m a Darts whose plighted word to the people has Sever been broken, aud will not be now. I reirret. Indeed, that Mr. Sumner's amend ment requiring provisions in the new Consti tutions for universal education as a condition of Heeonstructlou, did not prevail; but I hope the good sense of the Southern people viS VtablFsti It voluntarily, ensur ng them l a warmer welcomo as they return to the Council Board? Bnt I cannot omli, in passing, to sute that one of the essentials of the Reconstruction iToUcy ! tbe election of Congrest.men who can Eonest y and truthfully lake the oath required bv law.

God lend beck these States, clad In new robei of Liberty and Justice; and we should have had "Anathema Maranatha" written on our door Kills If we had abandoned them In our hour of victory. I eannotdonbt the future ot the gret party which has won these triumphs and esta blished these principles. It has been so bril liantly successful, because It recognized Liberty and Justice as Its cardinal principle; and, be cause scorning all prejudices and defying all opprobrium, it allied Itself to the cause of the humble and the oppressed. It sought to en franchise, not to enchain; to elevate, not to tread down; to protect, never to abuse. Itcared for the humblest rather than for the mightiest; for the weakest rather than the strongest. It recognized that the glory of Slates and nations was Justice to lhe poorest and feeblest. And another si cret of its wondrous strength was, that it fully adopted the striking Injunction of our murdered chief: "With malice towards none, with charity for all, but with firm ness for the right, as God gives ns to see the right." (Applause.) Only Inst month the British Chancellor of the Kx-. chequer, In defending his Keform bill, which holds the word of promise to the ear to break it to the hope, exclaimed: "This is a nation of classes, and must remain bo." If I may be par doned lor replying, I would say: "This is a nation of freemen, aud must remain so." (Applause). Faithful to the traditions of our fathers In sympathizing with all who long for the maintenance or advancement of liberty In Mexico or England, In Ireland or Crew, and yet carefully avoiding all entaugllng alliances or Violations of the law, with a recognition from ocean to ocean, North and South alike, of the right of all citizens, bound by tlie law to share In the choice of the law-maker, and thus to have a voice in the country their heart's blood mnst defend. Our centennial anniversary of the Declaration ot Independence will find us as an entire nation, recognizing the great truths ot that Immortal Magna Ghana; enjoying a fame wide as the world, and eternal as the stars; with a prosperity that shall eclipse lu the future all the brightest glories of the past. At the close of his remarks Mr. Colfax was greeted with renewed applause. The meeting then adjourned, for the purpose of giving the members an opportunity of being introduced to their distinguished guest. A collation waa then proposed, and the festivities were pro longed till a hate hour. JUDGE UNDERWOOD'S CHARGE. U. S. DISTRICT COURT IN RICHMOND. FIVE BLACK MKK IN THE JURY BOY KXTRAOBM NAKY CHARGE OF JUDGE UNDERWOOD TUB rORTHCOMISO TRIAL OF JEFF DAVIS, ETC. Richmond, May G. The United States Circuit Court met to-day, at half-past three o'clock P. M., Judge Underwood presiding. The Grand Jury were sworn, and John Minor Botta ap pointed foreman. Major Kennedy, the Assis tant District Attorney, waa present. Mr. Chandler, the District Attorney, had gone to New York to consult with Mr. Evarta, one of the counsel retained by the Government in the expected trial of Jefferson Davis. The ques tion ofthe prisoner's rendition to the civil au thorities on the writ of habeas corpus issued by Judge Uunderwood will be decided, it is sup posed, to-day, in Cabinet meeting. Up to Saturday last the Secretary of War deolined to issue any instructions on the subject to General Burton, in command of Fortress Mon roe. The Judge's charge was listened to with great interest by a densely crowded court room. The following is the charge: Gentlemen of tbe Grand Jury: The circumstance surrounding as demand devout thanksgiving to Al mighty God thai we, the trieods and representatives ol the Government of the United States, who last year were threatened with destruction and hunted oy assubsius in tills city for attempting to execute the laws of our couutry, can now meet lu conscious secu rity under the wings ol the slurry banner which our patriotic Congress has raised tor our protection; that we are permuted to meet lu this building of everlast ing granite, so emblematic of the power and strength ot our Government, standing aloue and unharmed amid the great conflagration that swept as with a besom of destruction all around It. And what solemn associations are suggested by reflecting that. in tbe very rooms we now occupy, dwelt the fiery bouI of treason, rebel lion, and civil war, and hence Issued the tell spirit which starved, by w holesale, prisoners for the crime of defending the Hag of our common couutry, assassi nated colored soldiers for their noble and trusting labors hi behalf of a cause that had as yet ouly pro mised them protection, burned towns and cities with a barbarity unknown to Christian countries, scat tered yellow fever aud smallpox among the poor aud helpless, aud finally struck down one of earth's noblest martyrs to freedom and humanity. Another subject of thanksgiving Is presented in the very con stitution of your body, furnlshiDg ovular evidence that the age ol lust and class cruelty Is departed, and the new era of equality and Justice breaking ihrougn the clouds of persecution and prejudice is now dawning upon us: and, strangest of all, that this city of Rlehmoud ntiould b the snot of earth to furnish this gracious nianllestatinu. Klchmond, Lhe beautiful and abandoned seat of the Rebellion, look ing as comely and specious as a goodly apple or a gilded sepulchre, where bloody treason nourished Its whip 01 scorpions. Klchmond, where the slave trade bo long held nigh carnival; where the press has found tbe lowest depths of prod igacy; where liceiitlousue-w had ruled until probably a majority of births were illegitimate or without lhe forms of law, where Hie fashionable and popular pulpit had been so prostituted that lis full led minlslerliig gay Lotharios generally recommended tne worship ot what they most re- twoleJ pleasure, property, and power correspoud nv to the pagan and mythological Ideas of Bacchus. Xdunimon anu juars: Gods brutal, partial, passionate, unjust, Whose attributes were rage, revenge, and lust. It was as if the Heads prevailed gainst the seraphs they assailed; and fixed on heavenly marshals: r, In professional language, have packed juries instead ordrawlug theiu from a box of names selected by other o Ulcers, as is done In most ot the states, there was danger of geuing ine inainereui persons upon ine pauei; out the care and rare Judgment which our marshals have always shown In their selections, prove my tears un founded; and I am truly gratiliea to find so many gentlemen of public and private worth upon the ureoent lurv. Wa so often hear from treasonable Stturces around us, Charges thrones should dwell. The treed Inheritors of hell. Ho formed lor joy, Bo cursed the causes that destroy. But we are reminded that where sin abounded grace may much more abound, and In the light ot recent changes may we not hope a material and moral future for Ihiscltv of Kichmoud In Strom contrast with lis awful and athelstio past, and in barmouy with the salubrity of lis cllmaie.lhe poetic beauty of its scenery, and tbe maguinoence of Us water powers T I have sometimes feared that by the usages of ilils state. which have given tne selection or jurors 10 the sheriffs, aud of cruel acts passed by Con gress slace the beginning of the war; acts which we are called npon to euiorce, mat u is wen, per haps, for one moment to consider the utter falsehood of such charges, and to And on examination Ibeun- nara Helen clemency ana rornearaai eoi ine victorious Government, which but for the cost ot the Kebellion, wouid now oe reit only in lis proieciiou ana its uiw lnir. While It hu heretofore been the common law of all nations, our own Included, to punish treason by aeain, it was reserved lor ine Aiuericau uongress, in the jnlilsl of a alaanllc rebellion, ou the 17lh day ot July, IKK, to reduce that puolshraeut, if the courts should see tit, to line ai d Imprisonment, Again, It has been the usage ot all nations, lu peacs as well as war, to make the wronguoer, even in lhe most trivial tres passes, respond out of his property to the full amount of the damaaes be baa commuted a Tpractica aud usage aisoo! victorious governments In all ordinary venerable alike for his age aud for the blessings of education.' culture, ana improvements ue uao oou rrrd unnn his btale and counlrr a statesman greatly eminent among his fellow legislators and by common consent of successive Congresses acknow ledged as a leader and lather, with a deference that neither Clay. Pox, the Pitts, nor even Cicero had ever kuown, this noble man we have seen assailed with a bitterness and falsehood peoullar to tbe authors of and leaden of the Kebelliou, Its pimps nnd auoloirlsu. And lor what? Why, for proposing that a few ot those who had been chiefly Instrumental In filling the land with woe and mourning, and debt and taxation, and who, like . ihetllate t Secretary ot the Rebel nuanceB, bad made millions by blockade running, and by her speculating unto the general distress, should out of ihelr princely estates contribute one tenth of the damages they had done, and at the same time expressly exempting from penalty all the great masses of those who had been drawn into the late war. This humane statesman also proposes not to punish any with that extreme rigor usual In civil wars, and not even to the extent exacted by every European nation In ordinary foreign wars Were such moderation and clemency ever before so abused and insulted I May this grandest osd statesman of our country and age, this honor to hmilftn'ty Mid light (unguf Ue paUvua, illl) cgutluuo to live notwithstanding the advance of years and (ll-ense, and may we yet be uulded by his wisdom nd benellcence until the great questions now pending ahall be decided In the Interest of peace, pro :re, and Ir.edom. I regret, gentlemen, that I cannot encourage yon with the hone ot a short or lignt salon, as I am Informed by the District Attorn y that your labors way be considerable. The uo niliigiitvd disloyalty which animates s large a pi ilon ol our newspaper press in tins state Is producing such eflecl upon the public morals, espeo ally lu creating a disposition by frauds and perjurv to escape taxation neceraary for the support of the Govern ment, in eiirnu ruging the circulation of oounlerfel money: and It Is feared that the anxiety to vote ai the nppri aching elections by persons engaged In the late K hellion. Is about in produce an Immense amount 3f labor for our Urand Juries. On this subject I may have occasion t address you more at length on a fu ture occasion, our attention Is particularly railed to an abuse which has assumes) an alarming aspect in this city as a relic ol the old barbarism ot sisvery; I mean the brutal rejection of a great laboring and uselol claas of the people from the street cars, I'ndrr the aet of Congress commonly called the Civil Highta bill, there Is an undoubted remedy for such outrages. Chartered transportation companies owe Impartial duties to the public, and the gross wrongs complained of deserve your Indignant repro bation, I know the matter bas been arranged by tbe Commanding General with his usual great prudence and Judgment, nut la, from Us nature, a mere tem porary settlement, and needs vontirmation by tne legal sanctiou of conns and juries. X only ask that you add your weight to what has been so well and wisely done hy the General. It any of your number know of any violation of law, it is your duly to report to Die liofl v, which should be always sixteen In num ber, and the assent of twelve Is rami I red to Hod a true bill. The Examiner has information that the ses sion of the Court will be prolonged until the adjournment of the Supreme Court, when Chief Justice Chase will come here aud pre side at the trial ot Mr. Davis. ' L. II. Chandler, the Prosecuting Attorney, is now in New York, consulting with Mr. VV. M.'livarts, Mr. Davis' counsel, about the trial. Mr. Davis will probably be brought here on Saturday, and then held by the civil authori ties till the trial. Chief Justice Chase is expected here next ' week. LEGAL INTELLIGENCE. The Magiltoa Homicide. COURT OF OYKR AND TERMINER Judges 1'lerce and Brewster William JJ. Manu, District Attorney; T. Bradford Dwlght, Assistant District Attorney. The Court reassembled at 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon, and tbe examination of witnesses for lhe Commonwealth was resumed. Margaret Hirst I live at No. 130 Bhlppen street; wheu this occurred I waa sluing at my front window; I saw the prisoner talking to Mr. Magllton: he led Mr. Magiltou Inside: I kepi my eye on the door, and saw Mr. Magllton come out very much excited: lie went to the barber's; the prisoner came out right after him: I saw no one come out or go Into the house lor half an hour before this. Cross-examined If anybody had gone In or come out during that bait hour i might have seen them, had I been looking; I noticed the manner ot tbe prisoner: 1 thought there was something wrong Inside, lor lie was waving his hand towards the Inside; went up (shlppen street the second time be came out; the first time be walked towards Thirteenth street. Mehecca fsmitb, colored I live In the rear of No, 1313 bbippen street; I was sitting on my iront step, on bblppen street, half hour before Mr. Magllton came up; 1 did not see any person pass In or out during that halt hour; he tried the door for a few minutes, and then It was opened: I saw him come out afterwards; be said, "Mrs. Smith, my Godl my wife is murdered; come In and see what you cau do;" I went In, and saw Mrs. Magllton lying upon her back with her throat cut; the prisoner was at the kitchen door: I asked hint who be was and what he was doles; there; ha said. ! am a friend of tbe family:" 1 aald to Mr. Magllton. "Who la her have hlan arreatad I" Cross-examined The prisoner did not say what he was doing there, but he volunteered to go for the a,. . ,mna f n. kwn.iT. r waa w.nlul' ha dim .a I m and collected: I said. "You ought to be arrested: what are you doing here 7" I did not hear Mr. Magllton express any suspicion ot the prisoner. Ueury Forsythe Adam Magllton came to my house ou the afternoon of April 25, with a pair of spectacles, about 2 o'clock; as near as I could guess he remained about an hour, Nathaniel Nesmith I live back of No. 1828 Bhlnnen stieet; 1 saw the prisoner about 8or o'clock lu tne morning, opposite Mr. oiagiuon a uour, near me tree- Dox. Cross-examined lie was dressed In dark clothes; be was looking up the street towards itroad: 1 Identity him by his person, bis size: he had ou a high silk bat. Bobert Buck 1 saw the prisoner on the day of tnls murder; he came into my place on Broi'.d street aud asked me what time it was, and I told htm to look at the clock; be looked at the clock, aud went down Bhlppen street. , , Cross-examined I saw the prisoner about half an hour after that; J had a guod look at him, aud 1 iden tify blm by his appearance. Martha Dobbins I live at No. 1S12 Shippen street; nearly opposite Magilton's; I saw the prisoner about ten minutes alter 2 o'clock that afternoon, standing on Magilton's step; I saw him place his hands on the door knob; my attention was drawn away lor an Instant; when I looked again he had disappeared; I do not think be could have gone lilteun steps either way without having been seen by me. Cross-examined When I next saw him he was coming down fcjblppen street, about an hour and a half ulterwards, with ollicer McCulleu. Olllcer McCullen, Br., sworn. I went with him to Magilton's house: I asked Mr. Magllton if he knew tins mau, aud he said, "I do;" the prisouer was standing by tbe Shippen street door, aud when I looked uround he was gone. Cross-examlued The prisoner came for and went back with me. .... Olllcer McCullen, Jr. I arrested the prisoner; I took him to Magilton's and searched him; then to the Slat Ion House and locked him uu; I was there when Lieutenant Hampton searched him: In the raid 1 found a small clot of blood; we searched the well, and a hoy went down; be found a razor: we hauled him up and 1 took the razor from him; It was 1 JauiesOallon-I am the boy who went down Into tie well; 1 found tbe razor, aud the ollicer took It from me. , . Lieutenant Hampton I searched the prisoner when he was brought to the (Station House; I recognize lhene notes, from the mark that I made upon them: I found them In a valise at the Monitor House, also an empty razor case. Chief Detective Lamon The razor was banded to me at Magilton's hoaso; I delivered It to Dr. Levis. No. 1104 Arch street; I took a piece or the neck of the dress, several pieces of the underclothing, and also some ot the blood from the carpet, to the Doctor. Adam Magllton recalled I found upon my wife's person the puree she asualiy carried uer money lo: there was nothing In It except a ten cent uote, Henry J. Mlckley I am Mrs. Magilton's son-in-law; she was at my house on Wednesday evening, April 24; she brought some stockings tor my lather, and I gave ber two fi uotes, greenbacks, and rather ragged; I don't know whether these ate the notes or not. Dr. Richard lvls The articles presented for ex amluatlon were some dark spots on a painted surface of wood, some human hair, au upper set of artificial teeth, and the razor: tbe spots on the wood were not blood: tbe stains on tbe hair, clothing, and teeth weie blood; on the outside of the razor handle I will nnt nrmttlvelv sav there was blood, but uaon the In side there waa abundant evldeuce of the presence of the blood of a mammal. Adam Meanock I live at No. 205 8. Front street; I know the prisoner; he stopped at my house: he told ine on tbe Saturday preceding the murder that he bad a good razor, and I asked blm to lend It to me; I shaved wilb it and handed It hack to him, and he told me to put It behind the ban I next saw thut razor at the Station House. Cross-examined When I put the razor behind the bar, 1 weut away to wash myselt; when I returned, the razor was gone; I asked him If he had taken It, and be said he hud. Mrs, Mickley lam a daughter of Mrs. Magllton: wheu my husband gave my mother the two t- uoies, She put them in ber purse and took them away. Here the Commonwealth closed. The Court ad journed at 8't o'clock. THIS MOBNINO'I PROCEEDINGS. Mr. Kllgore asked that the witnesses who testified on the part of the Commonwealth remain in Court until they cau be exainiued on tbe part of the de fense. The Court directed the witnesses to remain. Mr. Warrluer opened tor tbe defense. He said: May It pleaxe iheCourt andgeutlemeu I arise ou the present occasion to address you uuder clrcuuistances which are almost overwhelming. The prisoner at the bar is to be tried for the greatest of crimes. I am not unmlndlul of the circumstances that surround this case, that have been laldbuforeyou under such cir cumstances, many ot mem, as to lorce almost a con clusion upon your minds, as the case now stands, thai there Is no hope for this man. I shall attempt neither to decoiva myself nor to deceive nor mis lead you. I believe you, gentlemen ot lhe Jury, to be mau of Intelligence, fair minded, disposed to weigh the case, all the evldeuce that shall be produced, with all the consideration that the Importance of the case demands at your bauds. You are lo Investigate questlous of tact, and decide upon them upon your oaths: upon the most solemn obligations that you can take. You are to Inquire whether this man Is gallty of murder, and that Is all. The very hasty- manner In which we have been pressed In preparing this defense la one that operates with peculiar hardship, not simply npon cotiusel, for I have uo complaint to make for myself. I am will ing, In cause where a human life la at atake.to work nighvand day, without sleep and without food, in at I may be lo some measure helpful to the unfortunate; lin I pu Jj ivm degree Ufthtea the linutue load trat re" la npon the shoulders of that poor man. For, 1 tell yon, that of all the man whose laces X have looked into since this trial, I have not seen one who was so Indifferent as tbe prisoner. The lads at the Court-house door look at me wltb more anxious and Inquiring faoes, and more feeling for fie prisoner. II I know anything of physiognomy, if I can judge anything from tbe looks of a man, nc 1", to day, more Indluerenl to the result or lhe trial than his counsel. I propose, first, to consider the circumstances of this case, if we can believe the testimony that baa been recited before you. There are some facts lhat are beyond denial. None of us pretend to deny that Mrs. Dorcas Magllton was Inhumanly killed In her peaceful, humble dwelling, ou the afternoon ot the 2Mb of April, IK07. None of us deny that on that ocesslon the persons who have been summoned here upon the witness stand were riresent Immediately after; that they saw tbe dead Hidy: that they saw the blood; ibat they saw the mangled bead; that tbey saw the overturned chair, and the open door. All tbete circumstances are unquestionably true. Neither Is It denied that George W. Win nemore waa then In that bouse when the poor wounded and Injured husband, whose heart strings have been wiungln such a way as I pray God may never agalwoccur in this or any other commu nity, returned. It Is possible for a man to murder a poor rid woman lor four dollars. We expect lo prove that this men was not In the habit of having money. The Commonwealth has failed to prove that tact. We will also show lhat the fence tn tbe back yard can be scaled, and that It was scaled several times that day, Tlie prisoner Is suffer ing, and has been sullerli g Irom disease, engendering Illusions and balluciniktlous. everslune he was a child. He was discharged from the rmr on account of In sanity. M r. Warrluer cited a case of a murder that occurred some years ago in New York. A man saw an other stabbing his wile, and he snatched the weapon from him and rnogbt his wife In his arms. The assas sin escaped. Hegave the alarm, and an ollicer entered and saw blm with the dagger In his hnnrt. Ue was arrested, tried, convicted, and hung. Years after wards the true murderer confessed tlie crime, and the Innocence of lhe man was established. I believe that tbe test In all rases of this kind, the simple practical test, to decide whether it be true that this man was sane or Insane when tta.s act was committed, is the lest of disease. Air. Warrluer went on to quote different authorities on tbe subject of insanity, giving their uVfl-'ltlons or it. Cau there be such a thing as responsibility with out power? The books are full of cases where per sons have been told, as they say, by "spirit" to de stroy a tavorlte and loved child, and have prayed lo be placed beyond the power of lujunng It. It you con vict an Insane man and put the whole ma- cninery or the taw in operation mat you may crush bim, you do the community no good, jou stop;no such murders as these you rather yioiaie inai sacreoness ot human urewntcn may perhaps even to the Insane man be ot some restraint. A conviction In this case cau be Justified upon no otner principle man toat tne man was responsible anu sane, it you nnu tnai ne was not. your verdict must be not guilty, because of insanity. The true teat Is mental disease, and that may be Indicated hy disease of the body which results in disease of tbe mind, or by any of those peculiarities which attach themselves to the Insane. 1 here Is not a particle of evidence that this man made any attempt to escape. The murderer, as a sane man, must have known that If he cut that woman's throat, and blood flowed, there was a liability lhat the blood would be the telltale that would bring lilm to the bar of justice. Tbe Insane man, incited by the spirit of frenzy, which may have been more or less Instigated, not by the want of banging of Gottlieb Williams, but by the example that had been presented by the public papers his miud, frenzied lu lhat way, might very naturally pursue the sauiecuurse. Tuecuitlug of tne throat, I submit, was an actot Insanity, when tbe victim lay beiore him mangled aud dead from tbe effects ot the blow already Inflicted. We will also prove that the prisoner bas attempted to commit suicide six or seven times, and that he Is atHicted with a disease that Instigates tills. Not a par ticle of blood waa found upon the prisoner's clothes. Mr. Mann objected to tbe counsel's remarka, as not being an opening but an argument: the time bad not come lor that yet. He thought the gentleman bad exceeded bis opening, and was now prematurely arguing the case, and requests! (ue Court to reuraln blm. Mr. Warrluer replied that this was one of tbe most difficult defenses to establish, anil that where tbe counsel had been nushed to trial with such uncalled for baste as has been exercised la this ease, a little In dulgence surely should be allowed them; but be thought this was a mailer In which It was necessary lo dwell at length unou tbe suhlect In order that the Jury might more fully understand the nature of the aeiense and eviaeuce when it snouia oe submitted to them. Judge Fierce said that tbe legal office of an opening was to state the lacts expected to be proven, and the law and philosophy as applicable to them, and that tbe Court thought that counsel should not be limited as to the time lu which they were to lay these matters plainly before tbe Jury, and therefore the Court would allow the gentlemun to proceed, Mr. Warrluer resumed his remarks: We shall show you that this man waa an epileptic: that he was ullllcted with a suicidal mania: that be was melan choly and dejected; that he believed that he was acted upon by spirits: tbat be waa laboring under a hallucination; tnat the victim of this murder was In the habit of palming and portraying pictures (pic ture shown i, under what she stated was a kind of a spirit influence, and that this poor crazy man whenever be beheld these pictures was Immediately affected thrown Into a condition of niter delusion and hallucination, or whatever you please tocall it he was affected with Immediate, shuddering as though something entered Into tne very marrow of his bones, producing quick and puugent pain, and that be Imme diately slunk away weut out or the preseuce or the pictures. Winnemore, during this part of the Address, turned his eyes, which bad been throughout the morning Intently fixed upon his counsel, away into the corner of the dock, and did not raise (hem again until the pictures had beeu replaced again upon the table. In conclusion, the counsel said tbat when he had shown tu so fa'jts, and established this insanity, be thought the Jury would render a verdict of not guili). The examination of witnesses for the defense was then cemmenced. Adam Magllton swore I have seen the prisoner at our house lu tlie preseuce of my wife; he was there toreeorfuur times since he returned from tbe war: be was there three limes during the last three weeks while I was there; I am often out; my wife wa friendly to tlie prisoner: i never saw then quarrel: I 'have never known him to come to the house, complaining lo be sick, aud my wile put her hands on his head to cure it: I never kuew ber to put ber hands on his head and pass them around it ; (several pictures were shown to the witness), he re cognized them as bis wile's paintings; there are about fifty about the house; half a duzou hang up lu the parlor at home. q.

U. j-rum that gash did you have fears ef future attacks of epilepsy? Objected to aud sustained. lhe physician is dead; my son afterwards had attacks of epilepsy; this result was In accordance with wbat the physician told me (objected to. but the witness had uttered it): I never look particular notice ot the length ol time when be had epileptic tits: I couldn't say bow many be bas bad In six hours; there has been insanity in bis father's family; death occurred from It: my son weut to live with a laiully lu Delaware when he was about eleven years or age; he went to Mr. Woodbull'B, at a place called Little Creek, Dover, liul be lived with blm a number of years, until Mr. Woodhull died; he bas lived away from home most of ths time since be waa eleven years of age: be after wards went to Blooinlugtou, Illinois: he lived with Kev.
