In liu conspiracy trial on Wednesday,
Jlartman Bichter, a cousin cf Atzerot,
testified that ho camo to his homo in
Montgomery county, Maryland, on tha

gjjent, and ictnnined thero until 'Jhurs-

kliie. k Arnold, also a brother of
ti,0 t,,isouer. testifiid that tho latter wont
to Fottrepp- Monroo to cuter upon cm-
, ployment. John I . Ford, r ropriotor of
the theatre, was CR.Io.l lo ll:c bland, and
was asked I v the defence whedier Booth
ever arplied to h'uj to employ Chester,
tho actor. Assistant Judgo Advocate
l'.ingb.uui objected to tho question. Mr.
K.ving contended that Iho question was
pertinent. Arnold had tnado a voluntary
confession that thero was a plan to cap
luro lhe President, which Chester, in bis
testimony corroborated. The olyect in
piopounding tho intei rogatory was to
show that Booth had nobody in the thea
tre to assist him. An answer to the ques
tion was important, it, justice to Spangler.
Assistant Judgo Advocato Bingham said
this win not a question of relevancy
therefore il was ab.olutely unnecessary to
ask it. The Court sustained the Judge
Advocate' ot joction.
H'.M'AV, JL'KE 2.
Fiid.iy certain witnesses wcro called (o
show that Spangler was at his boirding
house in Washington u day or two after
lhe assassination. Thomas J. Reybold,
employed at Ford's theatre, testified that
about iwo weeks before the i,s;arsinatioii
Booth occupied box number seven, ad
joining that in which tho President was
subsequently shot. On the 7lh of Match,
tho witness broko open box number sev
en in oi ler to admit a gentlemr.n with
his company. Two witnesos employed
at tho theatre, bad exhibited to them tho
rope found iu Spangler's carpet bag.
They said it resotnbled similar ropes used
in tho theatre, but could not say positive
ly it was the same. Miss Margaret Bren
sor, testilied that .ho first mt Tayne at
Gettysburg immediately after tho battle.

very kind to the sick and wounded. Mr.
Dobter claimed tho foundation for propos
ing Pay no's insanity had already been
, , . ., i.i
laid by the prosQcutlon ; and the crinio ia
its inception, tho manner in winch it wai
carried out, and tho action of Tayne, both
before and sinco his arret, went to show
insanity. Mr. Foster detailed lha cir
curnstauces attending lhe attempt to kill
Secretary Seward in support of his plaa.
Mr. Nichols. Superintendent or the Gov
ernment inane Asylum, was callol for lha
accused. If, he sail, a m in altemp's ta
murder a sick man in bed whom ho bai
not "before seen, and assault) four olhars
in the same houso, witness would suspeot
in'm lo be insane: and, also if ho remain-
od talkini! with a servant for four minuter
But if he cried out after oommitting the
deed, "Fin road, Fen mid!" witnes
would suppose tlnU this was foig. ing trad-i
ness. Madmen seldom say they are mad.
If he would abindon his horse, wander li
the woods, and make his way to a houn
whioh ho would cxpost to i guarded,
witness would suppise ho was indiffer
ent to tho cnicrjuonces.
