Senator Morton, of Indiana, has replied at . length to Mr. (ireeley's let'er addressed to him on the 21st inst., and concludes as follows: "Ihe lucl is, our bondholders understand very well that whatever may be the law on the question, the bonds, or any considerable part ot them, cannot be paid iu coin while the currency remains depreciated; thai it is lolly to talk about paying the bonds in gold if the Govern ment cannot procure gold enough to redeem the greenbacks; that the redemption of the notes and a return to specie payments is a necessary condition precedent to the payment of the bonds in gold, and thov look more to the return to specie payment and tho establishment of our finances on a solid basis than to the mere lorm of the contract as to how they shall be paid. Gold payments should begin with the debt that is due, which is the currency, and not by Fbavmg bonds that will not fall due for tour teen years. The currency lies at the foundation of the whole financial structure, and if it be unsound, the structure above must bo insecure siid dangerous." Foreign Affairs. London, Pec, 29. The Morning Po&t to-day pubises the conpondence between J. G. Bennett, Jr., of New York, and Mr. Asbury, ot London, looking to au ocean yacht race between the Dauntless aud Cumbria. In its comments, the 1'ost prefers the Azores track, as one much better adapted to test the seagoing qualities of the vessels and the seamanship ot their masters than, the regular transatlantic route, and the writer exhorts the owners of the British schooner yachts to join In the race, and says the Sappho will participate. London, lec. 29 Evening. The report of the foundering of tho emigrant ship Btarry Banner Is unquestionably a hoax; although full details ot the event have been publUhed by the en tire press of London to-day.

The Proceeding "Veslerflny Afternoon Continued from our fourth Edition of yesttrday. At 3 o'clock tbe Court met, and the cross examination of i'r. Gross was resumed I would cot say the sprinkled spots on the coat sleeve were coagulated blood, lor I did not sec them eoou enough to ascertain whether th-y were or not; the blood on the sleeves might have got there by the wearer stooping over the body; it the blood bad been coagulated it would not have sprinkled; to make such spots it requires some busk propelling force; K Mrs. Hill had been dead fit ecu minutes when carried iu, the spots could have been made by tho shaking ot the head; the Fpots upon the shirt could have been Crod need by the striking ot tbe poker against a loody surface; the smear on tne cutl iiiiLjbt have been made by washing a bloody bund witu the cuU'on; the fluidity of the blood alter death is an evidei.ee of death; the flow of blood trom a cut in a dead body Is due to gravity; in such a case it will leLd to fall; it would not spurt out. Ke-direct examination Tne triangular wound on the head I do not think would have been made by a single blow of a poker ; sevei a. blows might have done it. Dr. F. F. Maury sworn I am a lecturer at the Jetlerson College, and am a surgoou at the Pennsylvania Hospital, and am a colleague of Dr. Levis at both institutions; 1 have read the evidence in this case describing the carryiug of the bouy (rem the yard and bathing of the head by tbe prisoner; I examined the clothing lor three hours aud a half with a good pocket lens, but not microscopically or chemically ; a microscope would only have shown this to bo the blood of a mammal; I found what I sup posed to be tbe sprinkles on the coat; 1 can account lor those sprinkles by a theory other than that ot the Infliction of wounds by the wearer of the clothes; circumstances being favorable for the noncongulation of tbe blood when a person is haudlmg a body dipped in blood, experience has taught me that it is impossible to do so without having the clothing of the person manipulating covered with' the blood; I speak of smears and spiiukles, but each must have a separate cause; all the sprinkled spots I saw upon the clothing might possibly have been made by the carrying of the body irom the yaid to the kitchen, par ticularly it the effort was protracted; if the bead hhd been raised and had fallen back into the pool many of these spots might readily have been produced by that, dependent greatly upon the position of the person lifting; if in raising the head blood had dropped into the fluid blood upon the pavement the sprinkles might havo been thus produced; the appearance ot an arterial jet is regulated by the proximity of tbe object to it; if 1 pass my hand from the fluid ou one sldo ol me to the other side, 1 musinecessarily get it upon myself unless I took tbe utmost precaution; it a patient is operated upon and is removed a distance trom tbe point of operation, wnich must be by the aid of an assistant, you must get innumerable spots upon jou for which it Is almost impossible to account; whether or not Mrs. Hill's body when found in the yard was iu a favorable con dition tor the sprinkling ot blood depends upon the length of lime she had lain there, her posi tion, the nature of the wounds and the atmo spheric temperature; if she had lain one, two, or five hours, coagulation or rigor mortis, or this stillness would have been almost certain, unless modified by tbe condition of tbe individual at the time tbe cause of the death was given, and the cause of the death itself; a warm atmosphere, under conditions, will inornate tne coagulation ot Diood more than a cool atmosphere, whereas (or every degree below tbe normal temperature to a certain point.it cOHgulates slowly; if there be a cool arnoaotiere (vwtrte purwus) it win coagulate slowly; it a body be raised fiiteeu inches and dropped into a pool of blood, the eilect cannot be explained uuder any theorv; if the bod v had not become stlilened, and bad been bleeding in a cold atmosphere, it would be In a favorable condition for sprinkling: 1 read Dr. fehapleiub's testimony descriptive of the wounds upon tho skull; I think it extremely doubliul thatall those wounds could have been inflicted by the poker pro duced here; I visited the house at Tenth aud Pine streets; I have a niece of oil cloth cut from beneath the settee ou which Mrs. Hill lay :H has upon it a spot oi undiluted blood; I visited the dining room and examined the dining-room door; 1 touud several spots ol blood upon it; there were perhaps fllteen bpots upou it; some were on the extreme top, aud some on the lower pauel; their appearance indicated mat tne aoor could uot nave Oeen open an inch when it received the blood: alter the exDiration oi a month it would be a dttlicuH matter to tell whether a spot of blood was diluted, lor the water might quickly evaporate; pure bloud piacea in a vessel, placed in a cold aUiophere aud uninfluenced by motion would not coagulate so Quickly as in a warm atmo.-nlu re attoiuloii wnn line circumstances: when blood livezcs it does not coagulate readily. cross-examined m stooping to ink", up the bloody body, a man's pantaloons would be more likelv to receive tbe snrmkled soots than th ciui, i uiuiioi una many sucu spots upon tbe pants; moving tne naud lu bathing the head might make tbe stains upon tho culf.'but would not account lor the sprinkles upon the sleeve ana enouiaer oi tne coat; it is possible to make a punctured tiacture of the temporal bone with tbe tongue of tho poker; the whole skull un- uouDteuiy couia nave, been beaten iu to pieces with this poker; the temporal bene could have been Droueu wun the neel ot the ooker. aud then the tongue might have been driven in: 1 nave kuowu an umoiena to De driven into tbe irontai bone oi the skull; from reading Dr, aaumiigcrs statement, I Bhould say the body nad been dead an hour or au hour and a half; tbe blood iu the yaid would have been partially or wholly coacufated. Re-direct If that poker had been used to beat up mat skuii, i should think it won d look biuised and battered; 1 see no buch skns on this poktr. Be-cioss-examlned In making that fracture of the temporal bono with the heel of the poker it neea uot diMinuie the noker. Dr. S. Weir Mitchell sworn Corroborated the testimony given by Urs. Gross and Maurv. Dr. ttichard Thomas sworn TesuUed upon tbe same poin's. John Conrad sworn I have been apothecary at the Penusvlvaula Hosoitsl thlrtv-seveu venrs: 1 keep a record ol the temperature; on the 22d of JsoveniDer it was at tne highest 42 degrees, aud Ihe lowest was 37 degrees. William W. Cross sworn Testified in support of tbe attack upon Mr. Gilbert's refutation tor truth. Johu Wllber sworn I was at Mrs. Hill's bouse this morning; with other gentlemen we maoe experiments to try whether the trout door could bo locked or unlocked without beiug heard bv a peieon standing on the outside, and found that by standing immediately at the door 1 could bear no sounn oi uuiocaing. Otlicer Tborp testified to this point. Here the Court adjourned until thii morning. The Grand Telegraphic Bauu.net. Few York, Dec. 29. The compliment arv ban quet to Pror. 8. F. B. Morse came off thin evening at Delmonlco's Hotel. Chief Justice Cbase presided, and among the guests were toward mormon, iriusu Ainoassauor, ex- Governor (Juitio. Atiorney-uoner.il fcvaris Judge Pierrepunt, and uiauy other distinguished persous. After the viands had been discussed the chairman made a few remarks in regard to bis presence on the occasion, iu the course of which he said (bat be could not be backward when ever honors were to be paid to the father of An ericuu telegraphy. The first toast the President of the United bta'es was teceived with applause. Mr Edward Thornton, in responding to the toast of the united nations, said that no one was more anxious to promote harmony betwoeu the natlous, no oue more anxious to do honor t ) such benefactors ot tbeir race as l'roleisor Morse, lliau his sovereign, Queen Victoria. In resiondiig to the tout of the evenlntr, Protestor M rte gave au intcres.iug account of the succmive stages In the progress of tele graphy. tpieches were also made by Gen. McDowell, Attorney-General Evarts, ex Governor Curiiu, and others. Governor Curtln. aftt r briefly alluding to tbe history of the Atlantic cable and paying an eloqutut tribute to Morse and Field, spoke of the great enterprise and progress which mark the present 8ge, in this connection ne saia: I can remember well when the question of connecting the Ohio and the Delaware rivers agitated the people ot my native Htate. Preju dice and Ignoiatice resisted stubbornly, but free schools kud internal improvements came hand in hand to give us greatness. Brave men fell In popular reprobation because they expended a lew millions to give back Incalculable wealth und tbe priceless boon of uuiversal education. Our turnpiices were tbe first slow, hesitating steps in proaress; tho tottering, timid footsteps of lntuucy. loe State stretched out its bouuiy and commerco was quickened. They have parsed away, aDd the account of capital invested stands un balanced Iu the Treasury; but who can estlmato the dividends? With trembling and lear a col lege here and there was established, aud soon came the common school to hasten progress alike in the improvements of rich aud poor. Then came our tieat canal and our primitive railroad; but, imperfect as they were, unwisely as tbey were managed, and fruitless as they appeared ou the balance sheet of the Common wealth, tbey were a great artery of commercial and national life a vast stream of progress that was steadily advancing our people aud mnklug them nobler and richer from year to jcar. They tco have almost faded away before tbe march ot the iron horse, whose rudo music is heard over nearly lour thousand miles of railroad In the State; but they added millions to tbe wealth ot Peunsvlvanla. He lauded the libe rality and enterprise ot Euglaud In expending $440,000,000 to enrich her East Indian posses sions witn railroads aud telegraphs, and predicted that in a few years there will be a continuous line of rail from Dover to tbe Bosphorus, thence down the Euphrates, across Persia to India, and thence eventually to China and Japan. Keterring to our great railroad achievement, he expressed his trust that before another five years shall have elapsed three great trucK lines ot railroads win cross tne plains and mountains to the Pacific. He continued: The telegraph must now reach tho East, and be tbe foierunner of the great harvest ot civilization irom San Francisco to Oregon, thence by ltussian America to the Asiatic coast. The submarine cable will soon bear messages of progress und iuiuse the love of ad vancement into tbe commercial cities of China and Japan. "Tbe extension of the telegraph to the East" will be tbe crowning triumph of the civilization we so fondly and justly claim, and soon the commerce of the Oriental cities will turn from the east to the west, land on our Pacific shores, aud sweep across our continent to our great cities aud to the marts of Europe, and theu thejlightning messenger will encircle the whole world, to bear the glad tidings of prosperity and peace to all mankind. OBITUARY. Sir Richard Majne, K. C. It. The Atlantic cable brines us intelligence of the death, on Sunday last, in Londou, of ir Kicnard Mayne, Chief ot the metropolitan ponce fit thn Diput rMv. Thn rlpremeri wnn h,irn in Ireland somo time during the year 1790, his intner being one oi tne judges iu tne uourt ot Kinc's Bench, Ireland. Educated first at Trinity College, Dublin, where he took degrees, he was subsequently admitted ad laudetn to Trinity College, Cambridge, and in 1821 the degree of 61. A. was conierred upon him. During the following year he was called to the bar at Lincoln's inn. and although he was a man of more than ordinary legal ability, his success iu ma pioicssiuu uucs iiui uip?ur to have been very decided. In 1829 he re ceived the appointment of Commissioner of the Metropolitan ponce ot Lionuon, and in reward for the services he rendered while holding that office was created a C. B. in 1847 and a K. C. B. ot the Civil Division in 1851. His energy aud administrative capacity also caused his promo tion to tbe position ot Chief of Police, which he held at the time of his death. About a year ago, while tho reform question occupied the minds of all classes of Englishmen, Sir Uichiird Mayne made himself quite notorious and unpopular by his otlicial course towards the members and supporters ot the lieform League. A meeting was announced to be held lu Hyde Park, and by his orders the gates were closed and the crowd rciused admittance. As will be generally remem bered, a riot on a small scale was the result of this most unnecessary exercise of power, and all tbe odium of the act rested upjn the deceased. Tbe manifestation of public sentiment on this occasion appeared to have some effect upon the autocratic Chief ot Police, as a subseqaeut meeting was held in tbe Park and the people were not molested. Sir Kichard Mayno was an old man, having lived more than seventy-two years beyond the allotted threescore and ten of man. He belonged to a class of Englishmen of whom but few are now living men bred up in a school of politics that taught the scholars to place implicit faith iu the assurance of Miakespenre that divinity hedges around royslty. He was, we think, a Tory of vpry de cided opinions, holding fo thocc views of gov ernment which give the masses as little power as possible. That he had outlived his day and was blind to the progress of the age was made maniiest in the course he pursued last year. However, to his praise it must be said that tbe discipline and efficiency of the Metropolitan police of London were aud are due more to his administrative faculties than those of any others of his colleagues.
