At ia o'clock to-day. in the Court of Common tiein, all the Judges being upon the bench, counsel w;re present to argue before the full bench the peti tion that has been filed for a rehearing and rewmt in the matter of the contestoil election for District Attorney, npon certain supposed errOfs !0 Hie cOnnl i,f i he Judges In their Judgiiicht npon the contests, kg nuve bei-h already noticed in our columns.

Mr. I'.nldlc iienlim tlKj.inntti'r on liehaT of the iii't'tioiicr, said the object or this proceediusr was not to cull In ipiestlon the principles upon which the court tus already decided, out simply to direct tluslr tattciiiion to certain ci-iiral and arithmetical errors in the computation made in thai. Jnltriii.-nt. I'ldtt'e Allison suggesteil that since a certiorari hurt lie hi allowed in this cas, the fir it (iiiestion would lireperlv be whether the Court had power U nrocecd with this petili"li. Sir Middle said that this was the same term In which the judgment was given, and therelore the court had power to review that decision. Mr Mmui, appearing lor .Ml-. Gibbons, hero moved to drill's the writ, lirst, beranse the record of this choc was not in court, and therefore tliu Court were powerless to re-cMimine or alter It; and s votnlly, lii-cuu-e the petition docs not propose merely to call attention to simple clerical and arithmetical niis Mkes, but that its vitality consisted alone In recall ing matters which were of the merits of the con tents, and which have already been passed upon. Mr. l'.iddle denied that this was the purpose 01 the iiri.cecding, contending that It was founded solely noon three clerical and arithmetical errors and cmifsinus. First, there was an error In the thlrty Mx natitralizod votes, which the Court decided tho respondents in the contest were entitled to, and were counted in the case or the Mayor, but omitted In the case of the District Attorney. The next was an error of H votes in the purging, which should have been counted, because in the taking of the testi mony counsel had agreed that those unasscssod voters who said that they had voted the Uepubllcan or Democratic ticket should be taken to have voted lor all the candidates upon that ticket. These 14 votes cast for the Democratic ticket came under trial class, and while the Court did not throw out 1111 Bssessed voters of this class in other Instances, yet these 14 were tnrown out Mr. Mann denici that any such agreement was entered into, Judge Allison said the judgment or the Court con sidered this matter, and decided that no such agree ment between counsel should take the place of the proof or thequaliiicationa or votes. Mr. Middle xald that this certainly was the under standing under which counsel acted during the whole examination. Mr. lierhardt ami Mr. Sellers gave their evidence to the same assertion, sayiug that had It not been, that the case would have occupied twice as much lime as It had consumed. Mr. Mann again denied this, and made an expla nation. Judge Allison said the agreement between counsel was immaterial, for the majority or the Court hud decided that they were to judge of the competency uf the proof of votes. Judge Ludlow said that he had made the failure to compute according to this supposed agreement a point 01 his dissent Mr. Middle resumed, saying that he hoped to show theCourtthat he was correct in his position, ami maintained that he had already overcome 14 and 3J votes, making 60, and with an error of 6 admitted by the other side, there were lert 13 votes to over come . As to the objection that the writ of certiorari was a bar to this proceeding, he thought that as the term in which the judgment was given had not yet ex pired, the whole matter was yet in the breasts of the judges, and the fact that one of the judges who de cided the contest had, after the altowance or the writ of certiorarl,sworn In the present Incumbent, he thought would remove doubt on this score. Tube enre, the oath was administered In the Common Pleas, but the judges of the Common Pleas were judges of the Quarter Sessions, in which this pro ceeding propc'ly Is, uud they would judicially kmw What transpired in each. Judge Allison asked when the certiorari was made returnable, and was luiornied that the 1st of Janu ary next was the day, It having been issued on the Itftn 01 uetouer. Judge Allison said the Judges were not vet pre pared to pronounce an opinion upon the lcgafcmsct of Hie writ of certiorari; out lie was inclined to think the effect was to take tlu whole case out of court as it stands, though tils brother I.udlow differed from this view; but counsel had better proceed to say what wa-i to be said. Mr. Middle then resumedThe 06 naturalized votes, 14 in purging the Kightli division 01 the Niu;h warl,and 6 In a recount, were admitted by ihe other side. and that made K votes lor which Mr. Shep pard was to be credited by tlio admission of the other side. In the opinion of the Court it was said that It was the duty of the Court to save a poll where it could be done by purgation. But in the Sixth division of the Seventeenth ward, lie unassesseit vote amounted to til, but instead or blowing out the whole vote he threw out only 4T. So in the Seventh divUiou of the Seventeenth ward, instead of throwing out the 89 unassessed votes only W were thrown out. This did uot look like acting upou what Mr. Mann stated to be the principle, to throw out the whole-uuussessed vote, but, was rather like acting upon what was understood to be the agreement of counsel at the examination. With thu 5f votes admit ted ami the 1 3 left to be over come, the facts thus exhibited must throw a decide 1 majority in favor of Mr. Sheppard, lor the lowest, error mentioned In either of the purgations amounted to 14. He thought this was not a matter for argu ment uut for simple presentation to.tlie Court. "Mr. Mann replied that, admitting the firtv-flvc votep.thirteeu were left as Mr. (iillons'm ijorir,v, and the petitioner as to these asked the Court to retrace their steps, and restore the votes that they had already decided should be thrown out, and then Mr., fcheppard wouM be elected by 44 majority. It wm confessed that the decree was correct, if Judge Brewster did not compute the imussessed vote, but If he did compute the unassessed vote he male a mistake in his figures, aud Mr. Sheppard was entitled to a seat. And it only amounted to an as sertion that the decision or tiie Court did not tally with the claims or the contestants. The only question was whether rhe Court Intended 1.0 count the unassessed vote; and the majority of Uo judges had decided that the unassessed vote wai not to be counted, noon which Judge Ludlow read a disssentlng opiniou" saying tuat they should be counted. Vhe petitioner had no standing here unless he asked the court to revise their couut and allow these unassessed vUes to be Included In the computation. And this petition was based ajlely upon the allega tion that there was an agreement thaf when a man had said he voted u ticket he should be tiikeu to have voted the whola ticket, and tlut agreement had beeu violated, and the ciuirt did not observe .t. J lie uueer.taLdii'g between couusel was en tirely dlilerent, tind it was hard to conceive how a oinerence coillcl liavp arisen ai 10 us c.uaracter. 11 the petition was to bo the guide for the action of the Ctwrt. then evurvtiiinsr that the c-outtfstant.s claimed would haveto be allowed, and Mr. i;ibi)ous' majority Would bo inerenserl bv hundreds. The Court had. however, rejected the theory of the respondents of l ountlug the tinassessed vote, and refused to count It. The computations of both sides were, Of course, BUblect to the (leuTpe.tion of tile Court. Judge Ludlow said that as this was uot his decree thai was to be reviewed, he was sitting merely as an advisory member or the Court. Mr. Mann resumed bv saying that the petitioner had, before the contest was lairly concluded, rushed into Court with a writ of certiorari, then lie discontinued that writ and took out a second, which removed the record from this court, and there was no power left here to alter 1 hat record, but if the court should discover any error In the computation, he should be clad to have It ex nosed. At the close of our report the discussion Uad not been concluded. Nuuittilng I'm for Gibbon. Sheppard return Crror lu Thirteenth division Mneteentli ward. .

THE BROOKS CASE. The illation for a New Trial of the Convicted ASNHKSIII. This morning Messrs. Maun and Cassidy appeared 11 ihe Court of Ouurter Sessions, before Judge Lud low, to argue the motion made for a new trial in the ase 01 iiiign w arrow ami .lames jjougueriy, con- icted or assault ana Dattery witn intent to kin aines J. Brooks. As the to exceptions taken to the ulincs or the court in regard to the challenges made to jurors, the arguments were limited. The main ground tor me motion was in reierence to the witness McLaughlin, counsel maintaining that as the Commonwealth had called him as their witness they were bound by his sworn testimony, and were not entitled to contradict him or impeach him by direct testimony, and should be, at tne larthest, allowed only to prove that he made other and different statements; but the court erroneously icrmitted the District Attorney to prove, by Mayor Fox, what those other statements were. A so. an error was committed in permuting vno District Attorney to make, In the hearing or the jury. t ie statement he did make concerning mo aosenue of Policeman Kelly, and tho importance or his at tendance, whicn undoubtedly had a tendency unuuiy to Influence the Jury. The JndL'e likewise made a mistake in sending lor the jury before they had voluntarily signified their readiness to render a verdict; the lateness of the hour, the tedlousness 01 tne inai, aim me summons from the Court, must all have combined to deter the jnrv fiom giving to the matter that calm ami mature deliberation which justice required; also the taking or the verdict on Sunday morning was discussed, but appeared to make no impression. The argument was not concluded, oil account of Judfcc Ludlow's presence being needed in the Com mon fleas. Tub Case ok Akmk Pkoci.ks As, by an unusual oversight and omission on the part ol all tue papers in the city, except one, the termination of the case of Annie Peoples was incompletely reported, it is due to Dr. Addinell llewson, who appeared as a witness on the trial, that the following statement should be published : In the testimony which the couusel for the defense produced for his client, he did not prove, as, In his opening address to the jury, he had promised to do, that Dr. ilewson's professional associates at the Hospital had repudiated the use of dry earth as a dressing, and the cross-exami nation of those gentlemen by the District Attorney elicited the fact, that they had applied to offensive Bores a preparation of which tlio chief componeut Is clay, ami that none of them be lieved it to be irritating, tub counwi ior ine o feuse did not produce a singlu witness, to whom such dressings bait been applied, to establish that they are irritating, or In anyway injurious; nor did he pro duce a single witness to corroborate the testimony of the chief witness for the defense, Dr. Chapman. These facts, coupled Willi tliat of the feellug which this itness entertained ugainst ur. llewson, ami with the actual abandonment by the counsel for the defense of his adopted line, even before any testi mony in rebuttal (which would have included that of patients treated with such dressing, and of eminent surgeons in" the city, who hud been subpu'iiaed) had beeu produced, show that the allegation of niulpiuetice was untrue, aud could not be sus tained. Judge Ludlow, lu his charge to the jurv, set this forth very emphatically, lie said that "tlio Commonwealth had only pressed for a verdict of minder of the second degree. The counsel for the piisi net' had conceded that his opening address as to 1 he maltreatment had tailed. There was evidence as to lighting, sutllclent, perhaps, to reduce tho grace, and the counsel on both sides had agreed to take a verdict of voluntary manslaughter." A P roitTFR Attacked At a late hour last night, Wllliuin 11. l-'ither, Jr., one of the reporters of tho city press, was attacked bv two roughs in tiro coats in a car on Uie I'nion line, at Seventh and Lembard atreets, and terribly beaten about the head and body. The attacking party retreated from the con vevance unmolested, and succeeded In effecting their escape. The cause of the assault it Is sup posed originated from certain articles which ap. pen rod lu a Sunday paper with reference to the Itrooks case, aud which Mr. Fisher la alleged to have written.

The following extracts snow the state of tho New York money market yesterday; From the Herald. "The features of niKialionstin Wall stieot to day were a decline in gold to 12S1,. und u 'iii-thur fall in Government bonds, the imaea of lN7 sellinjt hs low hs IIS1.,. Atona time in the ioreuoen b panic in both luarketfl seeinei im minent, and visions of a return to specie iuymuuU bejtan to float before the evos nf those who tinpponud to be on the bull side of the Kohl specnlaiion. There is no possi bility too improhahlo in tho mind of a spui-idaMir when the market goes iiwiiiitt him. His funcy c-onjuroii up the worst that can happen, and in 'ho tear of that worat be becomes panic stricken. The fuel baa been made manifest thai there ii a bear movement in geld which dates its inception back to last week, when a prominent operator boldly bid for and liouuht in one lot all the Uov. eminent gold on one dar. The price wus then put up to l:)i i.,, and many were induced to purchase through an ap prehension that what then seemed the beitinuinifof a 'bull' movement might create a still hurhor price. The gold cliques havo always niyctilied the street. When buy ing openly they were credited with really selling a lurgor amount, but the street found that they had practiced tins stratagem so often and so successfully that th-y inter preted tit wrongly the other duy and bought gold when the cliques were secretly selling. Hence when within the past few days the actual state of affairs became known there wasa general pressuro to sell, and everybody is short of gold, under the impression that the price inupt decline to liu before a great while elapses. Indeed, in tiie excitement, this morning those whoso foars wore uroDsod by their ill luck in being on the "bull" side bexuu to soiiotibly reuurd specie payment as a muttor not very iurottin the future, and holders of gold and holders of Uovernment bonds hastened to dispose of their invest ments. They also went 'short 'to a large extent, lor in this way only can account be mudu for the high rates for borrowing gold when the Trea sury diNhnreemont of the precious metal are so very large every day. The effect of theso sales waa a reaction, wbiih aubseuuntly carried gold back to las and the aiity-eovens to llti',i. There is some little curi osity manitestcd aa to the Treasury programme tor No vember, but doubtless nothing will be made public until Sunday night, when chance favors Mr. lioatwell with the opportunity of giving it to the press on a non in busi ness. The 11 oney market waa easy to-day, with a plenti ful supply to the (iovernment houses at four per ceat. On stock rati a were more irrcgulur and raugod from six to seven percent. In discount I Here wus little doing, aud that at formerly quoted rates. The liovernmunt sold a milli' n of gold to-day, tjjllHa.OOU of which brought 12S 51 and f HK, l3t o3. "A motion will soon be made in the Supreme Court to vacate the receivership of the Hold Kxclmnge Bunk and restoro the institution to the control of tho stockholders. An ett'ii t mil then be made by the latter to secure a re urn of the putronage of the Gold Board, with a view to ho resumpiion 01 Clearing House operations. A the .;otiimitteof the ICxchange have remained ailont since 'heir appointment, it is conjectured that they have been liable to discover any better way of making clearances han through the Gold lluuk, and houce on thevtcation of (lie receivership will report is favor of the old system."
