The charge of the coroner to the jury occupies nearly three elo , ely printed columns of the New York paper, and about forty-live ininofcs were consumed in its delivery. The coroner reviews sonic length the evidence in relation to the alleged marriage of Dr. I;urdell amid Mrs. Cnn»ingham, and,says: The question whether Dr. Burdell was or was not married to Mrs. Cunningham has a most iinnortant hearing in the case, because if you shall come to the conclusion that the marriage of Mrs. Cunningham.was with Mr. Eckel, taking for that purpose the name of and - personating Dr. Burden, a very strong' in4uive is shown, both in Mr. Eckel anft Mrs. Cunningham, for putting Dr. Burdell out of the way. As the widow of Dr. Burden, she woldd on Ilk 41(;(e:it, become entitled to consid er:tide property ; and she thus had a pecunia ry int - eve:A in his death ; and if the marriage was with Eckel, personating Dr. Burden, it Shows him to have been a party to the fraud, necessarily looking 14n-ward to the ben efits to result to hint therefrom in a pecuniary point of view, as the defizetu husband of Mrs. Cuttniugham. . pn.c.ing this fraud to have been perpe trated, it is difficult to conceive in what way the parting could benefit by it, eN.cept by Dr. Port ell's death. 1:4 it CAMSIMtVIIt Olt pridia jillity that the parties concocted the frand—if,- in fact, it wag con:toiled—without airy ulterior benefit fr , ,M it—without, :a t time it was resok cd on, having in their taihds some definite plan of action to reap the fruits of ?

Bach man, late President of this bank, has been bold to bail to answer a charge of embezzle ment. D. Longriecker, his predecessor in office, has been held on a similar charge. They were arrested on the complaint of George Graff, D. G. Swartz, and Ainos Mera.rtney, stockholders in the bank. The Lancaster In telligencer says: The complaint charges that some time in the-month of March, 1855, Daviif Longnecker, then president of the Lancaster Bank, and B. C. Bachman, cashier of said hank, paid fifty thousand del-la-rs-oftbe money - of the - bank to the Lancaster Savings Institution, on the notes of W. L. Ilelfenstein, which notes were endorsed by either the president or cashier of Said hank, in their individual name or names, and other directors of said hank ; that at the maturity of these notes they were pre sented at the bank for payment, and were di rected by the cashier to be paid, although, at the time, Mr. Ifellenstein had no funds in that bank to:his credit-to meet them, thus ap propriating the funds of the hank to their own private indebtedness to an amount exceeding $5(1,000. The complaint further charges that the said David longneeker, a:4 president of the Lancas ter Bruck, did at variou , times appropriate the funds of said hank to his own individual use arid benefit, anti al , i() that he loaned out sums Of money. the property of -aid hank,, without the knowledge or cunsent of the tlirectilrs, to i n di v id ua l s Nvithout security, and. which have Leen niece last 20 the hank.

If not, Gen. Pierce's cabinet will have remained ill office the whole term of for. years without any change in 'either ,of the departments. Every member now holds the position assign ed to him the day the President assnmed the reins of government. It is the first instance of the kind in the history of our government. (ion. Washington's cabinet remained entire through his first, term, with the e.xeeption of a single change in the Post-Oilice Department ; and John Q.,Giney Adam. maa only one change during his term, having had two Sec retaries of War. It is a high compliment to the present aide Cabinet that it has hutig to gether-so well, nuil worked so harmoniously for four' long years. It is always the desire of a (Adel' magistrate that his cabinet should lie a unit, and no one has been more fortunate in that respect than President Pierce.— lra4/1- in://ort, P-- - •:-.," - -;eve=7,tti, - thtli:-. for ttvoidiog the impend ing ck it 4,f :In ao-ewaul:ttirn of the curl:envy of etmotry thu government s:talts- have 1,0(o) "ti0n, ,, 11 , ,5.
