JLibel Suit,
Commonwealth vs. Gustavus Sage.
In the Quarter Sessions of Lehigh County.
—lndictment for a libel on David Kitten-
house Porter, Esq.
On the 17th of September last, the de
fendant, who publishes a German newspa
per in Allentown, published in his paper
several articles reflecting on the private
character of David R. Porter, then a candi
date for Governor of Pennsylvania. A few
days after their publication Edwin W. flut
ter, Esq. of Allentown, lodged a complaint
before a Justice of the Peace, and had him
bound over to answer to a charge of libel in
making those publications. At the last De
cember sessions the prosecutor, Mr. Huttcr,
being absent at Harrisburg on unavoidable
business, the cases were continued over un
til the February sessions last, when d bill of
indictment was sent to the Grand Jury, and
found a true bill. The defendant applied
for and obtained a continuance of the cause
to the present 'sessions, on account of the
absence of witnesses alleged to be material
to his defence. .
On Tuesday 1 , the SOtlfof April, instant,
the trial commenced before the Honorable
John Banks, President, and John F. Ruhe
nndjoseph Saeger, associates, all of whom ,
had received their appointments from Gov
ernor Ritncr.'and the jury was composed of
gentlcmenbelongingto both political parties.
The defendant having pleaded not guilty,
&c. ■
The libellqus matter—was-in German—
that'contained in the first count of the in
dictment—when translated read as.follows:
“PERJURY.” ‘
“David R. Porter has been frequently
charged with the crime—the -highest of all
crimes—of perjury, or-taking -a false oath,
and we have offered him and his friends
every kind of inducement (hat they might
remove this charge from him. We have of :
fered his friends a bet of 3IOGO, (see the ar
ticle an offer,) that we would prove that he
swore a false oath. In Harrisburg one has
offered to Porter and his friends the sum of
2000 dollars to have the matt,cp, tried before
12 jurymen in a court. In short, all oppor
tunities have heen already given to the Era's
ter people that they might bo able to free
him of this charge—-but.all in, vain. Keith-1
er David. R. Porter nor his friends will do
it.
“We ask every man in Lehigh County,
who has any respect for his character, if we
r" charged him that he had sworn falsely,
whether he w*ould not before a court make
us prove this charge, and if all could not do
this, would he not for such a charge, which
injuresjiis character, arrest us aud bring us
into difficulties? This is the case with D;
vid 11. Porter; we have charged him \v
perjury and fraud, and neither he nor .
friends dare, nor will call us to an accoun,
for it. Citizens of Pennsylvania 1 now de
cide upon this conduct, whether you believe
that Porter is free of this charge. If not,
can you, as honest men, support him for
Governor?”
The 2d count in (he indictment was for
another libel in another part of the same pa
per;. which translated read as follows:
“The lyinSi -Baroa, Munchausen has .still
yet at (he head’of his paper, that the on.
charge-which the Ritncr men had brough
against David R. Porter, consisls in this,
that he was once a poor man. This is ly
ing, .inasmuch as we never made this charge.
Our charge, is that David R. Porter took the
benefit in order to defraud his creditors—
that he took a false path, inasmuch as he se
creted property and did not deliver it up to
his creditors—that he has no moral or hon
est character to show, &c. We assert and
.can prove it, that David U. Porter never
was a poor man, for when his father tlied-he
left him an estate.of 10,000 dollars. He
went into, business, and when he discovered
that he could not rightly succeed (a poor
housekeeper he was) lie' took the benefit and
afterwards received his estate back into his
hands through the assignment to Stonebreak
er. Thus he always remained a rich man.
He lias still every .thing to overflowing, be
cause through his cheating he remained
rich.” . - ■
The publication of the paper being admit
ted, the defendant offered to go into evi
denced) prove the truth of' the allegations,
to wlijigh the prosecution marie no objections,
declaring that at Governor Porter's request,
they were willing to go into the examination
of every act. of his whole life. .
Hereupon -the defendant called John
Stonebreaker, his son Samuel Stonebreak-
er, and Robert .Campbell,-of Huntingdon
county, as witnesses; and read the records
of sundry deeds, suifs,*£c. in Huntingdon,
Beaver, Butler, and Northumberland caun-.
ties. , •
The prosecution, called Martin Gates,
William Hopkins, Daniel Hewitt, Richard
Jones and Tliomas’ M. Owen, to prove the
character' of John Stonebreaker,’ and. that
they would not believe, him upon oath. ~Gb
- vernorPorterandMr. Thomas M. Owen
.•were also examined as to -the various tran
sactions, which led to and accomplished
' Governor. Porter’s .failure in 1819, which
were fully'explained to tlie satisfaction of
every disinterested .man who heard the case.
Robert-Gampbell (now under, indictment
•for a libel on General Porter in Huntingdon
criunty.) and Samuel Hutchinson (the broth
er-in-law of John Stonebreaker,) were then
examined in supportof Stonebreaker’s char-,
-acterj and on Wednesday evening the testi
mony closed. - ■ ■ -
• On morning, John. S. u G.ibb'ns,
Esq, commencedsuinmingup for the prose-.
- cutionj which : he did in n' speech of, about
two hours in length. He was followed by'
Alexander E. Brown, Esq. the Counsel for
the defendant, who~ 6ccu'pied about' four
hours, and ahalf; and George. W. Barton,
Esq.:concluded; for! the Commonwealth,, in
a speech pf two hours and a half in length.
The Court then adjourned.till Fritfaymprn-.,
.ing at 8 o’clockiwheri his honey Judge Banks ,
-d«iyered^dong i "able-an<UmpartlaTchargc,+
going minutely into the law and evidence,
and leaving,the facts' to the jury, telling
them 4hat if they believed the matters char
ged to be true, they ought to find the defend
ant not guilty; and that if even untrue, but
published from justifiable motives, on su(H r
cient ground or probable cause, and in a
spirit Of .candor and honesty, and without
malice, they ought also to acquit the defen
dant. '
The jury retired, and in a short time a
greed upon their verdict, which thcy 'brought
into Court at its meeting, in the afternoon,
finding the defendant guilty in the manner
and form as he stood indicted.
It is understood that the jury were unan
imous on the first attempt to ascertain each
other’s opinions, when they retired to their
room.
The cause was conducted with ability,and
the speeches of the Counsel, on both sides,
were able and eloquent.— .diner. Sentinel.
FRANCE.
Paris, Thursday, April 4, 1839.?
' Half-past 4 o’clock, P. M. 3
I have waited till the last moment in (he
hope of being able to communicate something
positive upon oiir ministerial affairs—but not
only is it out of my power to do so, but it
appears probable that several days will e
lapse ere I shall' have intelligence of that
character to communicate.
This day* at 2 o’clock the session of the
Chambers was opened—by commisaion--but
I anticipate.
My letter of the Slst ult. left us without
a ministry.—The Monitcur of the next day,
(Ist instant) appeared with the astonnding
announcement of a now cabinet—but only
a provisional or temporary one, composed iii
(lie following manner: i
- The Due tie Montebello, Minister for For-1
eign Affairs. ’ ‘
hi. Uasperan, Minister of the Interior.
General Cubicrs, Minister of War.
M.Parant, MinisterofPubliclnstruction.
’M. Titpiner, Minister of Marine. ■ j
M. Gauthict, Minister of Finance. j
M. Circuit (de Lain ) Minister of Justice.
Every one of these is from one cause or
other unpopular. The appearance of thpir
names ami appointments Treated' therefore
not merely astonishment among all, but in T
■dignalion among the opposition party„....A.
subsequent intimation that the Chambers
would not be opened by the King in person,
enhanced the surprise of the public, and pro
duced a sensation to which we had long been
strangers. The Paris and Provincial papers
.moreover announced the march of troops (o
reinforce the already numerous garrison of
the capital, and distress and suffering were
ascertained to be daily making rapid strides
among the people. -Of this latter fact,the
Savings Banks returns, published on Tues
day, showed that the repayments last week'
exceeded th'c lodgments by upwards of 500,- j
000 francs (100,000, dollars,) j
o From Monday up to this, speculation was
on its utmost stretch upon the course that
the Chamber should pursue in- these extra
ordinary circumstances. It was evident to
all -that the King had succeeded in embroil
ing Marshal Soult with M. Thiers. That he'
had been almost as successful in separating
the Doctrinarics (M. Guizot and his party)
from the other branches of the coalition, and
without a shadow of necessity and- a shew of
reason for it, he had completely triumphed
by forcing on the country a Government
formed of inferior Members, of a party the
heads of which had been compelled to resign i
office. This was not all, however—for Ills
Majesty, in order fully to make his power,
felt, was not content; with‘nominating to the ,
Ministry, notorious adherents of his late
Cabinet, but actually some of the most ob-;
noxious mhn in France, (the Due de Mon- 1
tebello and M. Gasparan, for example.) 4
It wgs feared that these circumstances
would lead to disturbances to-day, and in
fact, an immense crowd of men and boys, of
the right species for an emute, (or row’) as
sembled round the Chamber of Deputies and
in the streets leading to it. They were driv
en back, however, at the point of the bayonet,
aided by the exhortations of influential per
sons of their own politics, and ultimately in
duced to disperse by the approach of a body
of Lancers, who would unquestionably have -
acted. In fine, the session -was opened by ■
commission, and. the usual preliminary bust- '
ness was transacted. '
Tlie’.Funds, which were made to rise, by
the great speculators, fell on receipt of-in
telligent;c at the Bourse, that an cmcute’had
taken place. They ultimately but partially
recovered.
■ Apperances are serious, it must ,'be con
fessed, but I do not participate in the fears
which, some—indeed many foreigners enter-,
tain, that there will be, for some time at least,
any disturbance on a large scale. There is
ho however, upon the continu
ance of tranquility, which one.out of a thou
sand possible accidents or occurrences might
produce. —Mw York Paper. ■, ‘
