Monday, 'April in New York city amid great - excitement, and the whole time until' Wednesday,tras occupied in drawing a jury when twelve married men were found "who had not expressed an opinion", an were deemed competent to sit as jurors on this excit ing case. This fact alone, is a matter of great surprise to the people when sormich has been said through the press since the 28th of November last. The lion. Noah Davis is associated with District Attorney Garvin on the Tort of the peo ple and Charles A. Spencer, and Mr. Gra ham are counsel for the defense. The Richardson story was all told on Thurs day last, which was the fact of the kill ing by McFarland as it has been published before, and the District Attorney addressed the jury in a short but pointed speech in which he claimed that if it had been shown that the prisoner had deliberately killed Richardson they must convict him of murder, and here the prosecution rest ed. Upon the reassembling of the court on Friday morning, Mr. Spencer opened the case for the defence in which he warned the jury to beware kit in their dying hour they have to reflect that they rent into eternity before hie time _te. inati who, in a moment of irrepressiblePasdon, killed the desolator of his home, and the destroyer of hia happiness. No witness has seen McFarland's countenance, no one has heard him say a word ; and these facts should be remembered. If the pa pers upon which he wrote _when standing at the desk could be found, it would prove that McFarland was then in ab insane . condition of mind. They must remember', how a witness testified that once before Richardson cast n•trinmphant look over his shoulder at - his victim: At the time Richardson was pistolled by illeFirland' he (Mefarfand) was not responsible for his actions either in the eyes of God or by the laws of armi. • tit was necessary to look into the anteee denta of the prisoner in order !ally to no derstand the cruse and arrive at satisfeitory conclusions. lie, then gave a brief history of Maar:, land from his yonth•mp • stating that lie' was an Irishman by descent, thathe start-1 ed as a mechanic in his youth, but baring foe mental organization it would not be satisfied with any groveling position, and that by his own perseverance and integri ty of character, he obtained a collegiate education and was admitted to the prac tice of law, and has maintained a high and honorable position at the bar in his ' profession. That his wife the heroine of this tragical drama was a poor nnednmi ted factory girl of Massachnsetta, when he married her, and that he bad spared no .paita's or advantages which money could puichtme, educating her, and that to Kira alone she owed the development oiler intellectual powers, and that love and domestic happiness enveloped the Hymens altar at whose shrine he wor shippedttutil the . vile - Sedneer despoiledit ittijel4and,iit a moment .. of frenzy he sent over the ' dark river :the"idestroyer of all hiteirthlyhappinesa' Hesahithat our 1814 wen - Okra: i6 r , witb death: the culprit Who kitiel.th4atiy•of ho? man being. - tat .08 , 4*dt:cave- eePtile who not only destiaieff happinesi of a fondimsbandivitich death would almost seem a xi:Bet hat;sth also.

In Kentucky and Maryland alone are they sufficiently nu merous to be formidable; and in those States the native whites will control a very considerable portion of them. Maryland and Kentucky willoontinue to be steadi ly Democratic in spite of the Fifteenth Amendment. In Pennsylvania the negro vote amounts, according to Greeley's estimate, to 9,4;5. That is a very small fraction in a voting population of not less than six hundred and seventy:five thousand. It is only one negro vote to seventy whites. The Radicalif who have' beep calculating on securing a continuous lease upon pow er by the help of the negro vote will find that they have counted without their hosts. In the South the native whites, who are in close affiliation 'With the Democratic party, will control a majority of the ne gro vote so surely as the blacks gat° the polls. In the Northern States the ele ment is so unimportant a One that it will be very little felt. The Republican party will be forced to "make 'constant conces sions to the blacksif they expect to hold even a majority of them. ;Ambitions ne groes will demand.a share: of the offices even in some parts of - Pennsylvania, and if their claims am not recognized they •will abandon the party.

Honorable dis tinction in the warwith Mexico, and long 1 sevrice against the Indians, in the course -ofithich no massacre of women or child ' .rem _stained hie escutcheon, were the events of his earlier Military career. In the recent war, he rebeived - the commis sion of Brigadier-General, and served in the three months' campaign under Gen eral Robert Patterson,lof this city. Wheu some clamor was raised against that faith ful and able officer for notperforming im possibilities which public impatience *ex ' peeled, General Thomas exhibited the in dependence of his character by a letter in which be emphatically declared that his opinion had entirely coincided with Gen eral Patterson's in the circumstances in ! question. Afterwards Thomas, as Major- I General, served with great distinction in I the Army of the Cumberland. One of , the earliest triumphs of the Union arms I Was his victory at Mill Spring over Gen- 1 end Zollicoffer. To give the details of his subsequent career would be to write the history of the war in the West. The most decisive battle fought then., was that in I which Thomas defeated and routed Hood. It has lately been elicited, that on the very eve of this battle, Grant had- issued I an Order from hie i-ftMp near Richmond, i removing Thomas from command. Thus ' he was-very near losing an opportunity for new distinction, and much of his well 'won fame. For, of course, the administra- I tion and the Radical press, to justify his removal, would have' covered him with obloquy, as they did McClellan; after the I victories of South Mountain and Antie tam. lint the good fortune of Thomas was in the ascendant, and he escaped, nar- I lowly, the blow aimed at him. He was , never a favorite with the clique that snr- I rounded Grant. His tone was too high ; i his rejection of gifts was too emphatic ; t his merit was too independent and eon spicnons. When Grant's election to the ) Presidency made an opening to promote i the great soldiers of the war, it was sup- , Posed that Meade or Thomas would, of i I course, receive the tieutenane-Genemley. Each had done great conspicnous service ' iu separate commands; both occupied lofty positions before the coun and the world. But they were slight; one of Grant's-personal followers was preferred; and an ignorant, brutal young officer was put in the high place from which he now disgraces the army and the civilization of the are. But earthly promotion is not needed now by George H. Thomas. He has gone beyond the reach of human hon ors and human envy: "He stew his last' sleep, he ititS caught his last battle, No sound shall awake him to glory again." —Age. , • 178 8%801 . 121 • 77,522 lAoo • .•, • •;1483 - Depth ;of the Atlantic. The deep soundings made in connection with thc.layiug of Submarine cables show the average depth of the Atlantic Ocean to be 12,000 feet. This ocean table begins about 150 miles from the Irish coast, from which the descent to deep water is very rapid, reaching 10,500 feet in fifty miles, and making the declivity greater than that of the Italian Alps. The deep est part of the ocean is on the American side' near the New Fonndland Banks, where an immense basin exists, ranging east and west for nearly 1,000 - miles, and whose depth is supposed to excel the height of the Himalayan range. SSA correspondent asks what Presi, dent Grunt means by saying in his negro amendment proclamation, that it is "a measure which makes at once, four mill ions of people voters, who were heretofore declared by the' highest tribunal in the land not citizens of the United States nor eligible to become ' so." Only the sixth part of the population, =yawr correspon dent, is the proportion of voters. The on ly answer we can give to this query is that Grant probably expects Congress to give one or more votes to every negro man wo man and child in the land. Even that, we think, will not Make np the four mill ions, but a good many more negroes are expected from Africa.

The reader is carried into the,dark end squalid quarters of the Rag-pickers. and' is introduced to the houses of the, sad children of poverty ; the most rioted Loretta) and queens of the Demi-nronde are portrayed 'with perfect truthilil nos :, the terrible inroads which vice 'of all kinds has made in French society, is shown with a startling vigor; Mabille and its gaieties, with the volnrrinons CVn-ngn are brought home to him ; and the mad revels of the carnival are re produced with great accuracy. The book is, in deed, Paris photographed, and is as attractive and spicy to the reader as the city itself to the American visitor.
