Congregational Unitarian Church in Philadelphia . Boston Phillips, Samp* son, SCo Philadelphia. T.B.Pugh. *' The position of Dr. Furness, os the representa tive head of the Unitarian denomination in this olty for over a third of a oentury, is calculated to oommand attention for the present publication, which contains the matured rofleotioDS of a culti vated and transparently candid mind. However muoh the publio may dissent from the author’s general views, or from the tenets sought to be illustrated in the volume just pub lished, there oan be but one opinion entertained in reference to the oatholio spirit of charity in whioh they are put forth. The usually bitter tone of the religious controversialist is altogether absent, and the most bigoted opponent cannot re sist the oonviotion that the author Is' thoroughly slnoore in every word be niters. In his endeavors to attain the truth—however wide of -the mark those endeavors may he In the judgment of some —Dr. Furness evinces an earnestness of purpose and honesty of intention whioh carry great with every unbiased mind, and preclude all, doubt as to the praiseworthy motives whioh have prompted the effort. The present work is a oorollary to the three vo lumes previously written by Dr. Furness; the first, “ Remarks on the Four Gospols,” published in 1838; tho second, “Jesus and his published in 1838; and the third, “AHistory bf Jesus,” whioh first issued from the press in 1856. Dr. Furness writes with much vigor, and remark able purity of style, very sensibly esohowing all attempts at “ fine writing,” or wire-drawn dispu tations. So far from adopting any set form of pb lemioal argument, he seems to have specially avoided doing so, and to have grouped his ideas' together without referenoe to any pet plan. Through the work, however, a unity of design Is. o/eariy discernible, whioh oan be easily mode out from the disjecta membra. We doubt not the, volume will find abundance of readers, not merely, in the religious world, but in seoular oiioles as ; well. Without endorsing the speoial theological views set forth in it, we oannot holp believing that no ono oan rise from its perusal without haring his heart touched with the divine reality of Christ’s oharootor, and his whole being Btirred to the performance of the highest duties of hu manity. LIFE AND ADVENTURES OF KIT OARBON, THE NESTOR OF THE ROOKY MOUNTAINS. FROM FACTS NARRATED BY HIMSELF. By Ds Witt 0. Peters, M. D. lvol Bvo. pp. 634. New York : W, R. C. Clark A Co. Although the rodoubtable Christopher Carson ji title-paged as a Nestor, whioh gives an Homeric idea of venerable age, he is yet upon tho sunny side of fifty, having been born in Kentucky, on Christmas Evo, 1809- Those who have road tho interesting narrative of Colonel Fromont’s Ex plorations in the Rooky mountains are familiar with the character of Kit Carson—with his bold ness, sagaolty, perseverance, and fidelity. The handsome volume before us, beautifully printed, neatly illustrated, and ably written, gives his whole personal history, which is as interesting os that of Leatherstocking in Cooper’s American ro mances. The wood engravings, executed by N» Orr, from drawing by Lumley, are superior illus trations, and the volume altogether has quite a splondid appearance. Bating the usual tendenoy of a biographer to make the most of his hero, Dr. Peters has shown judgment as well as talent in the authorship,of this book. It Is brimful of adventure, and it is written aslf the author himself delighted in the roxnanoe of real life whioh he so spiritedly nar rates. Kit Carson, at the olose of this Memoir, is left actively engaged in performing tho duties of Indian Agent In New Mexioo, and his activity, shrewdness, seal, and probity eminently qualify him for this position of responsibility and trust. In tracing this brave man’s oareer Dr. Peters pro- • Bents a sketch of a remarkable and extensive dis trict of our oouutry, of tho Indian races who in habit it,' and of the adventurous trAppbrS Bhd hunters of the Far West. Yoar after year the Indians are dying out, and, even yet more rapidly, the whito men of whom Carson is the reoognisod representative are also evanishing. Here, to use Dr. Peters’ words, is Carson, “ a man, who, for fifteen years, saw not the face of a white woman, or slept under a roof; who, during those long years, with his rifle alone, killed over two thousand buffalo, between four and fivo thou sand deer, antelope, and elk, besides wild game, suoh as bears, wild turkles, prairie ohlckens, Aa., &o.', In numbers beyond calculation.” As guide and adviser to the Fremont and other explorations on the Rooky Mountains, the name of Kit Garson will ever be remembered. He Is reoorded, by those who have had dealings with him, as a discreet and sober man, whose word oould always be rqliod upon, who porformod tbe boldest deeds without bolug a braggart, and in deod was as reserved and undemonstrative as if his life had been passed in village obscurity. We oannot devote space to extroots from this bio graphy, full of startling interest as it is, but strongly recommend it as written with ability and earnostnoss, and as abounding in adventures whloh aro not only wonderful but true. NEW AND FORTHCOMING ROOKS. It has surprised us that no man of lottors has thought it worth while to write a continuation of Horaoe Walpole's famous Oatalogne of Royal and Noble Authors. In the hundred years whioh have elapsed einoe that work wqb privately printed at Strawberry Hill, a great deal has been done by noble authors. Among these are Lord Dafferln, great grandson of the famouß Riohard Brinsley Sheridan, Who ran Through each mode or the lyre, and was master of all,” and who is also nephew to Mrs. Norton, the poet ess. Two years ago, then aged thirty—having previously been in aotual servitude, as one of Queon Viotoria’s Lords in Waiting—this gentle man started on a voy&go due North, in the schoon er yaoht “Foam,” taking with him an Iceland gentleman, as companion; an Irish surgeon, who oould take photographs aud botanize; with valet, oooks, sailing-master, mates, seamen, butoher, and so forth. This party visited Iceland, where they saw Heola and the Geyser; orossed the Aiotio Oirolo ; foil in with Prinoe Napoleon, also a tour ist ; went to Jan Mayen, and other Jtrange pl&oos, as also to Spitzbergen, Norway, Denmark, and b&ok again to England—accomplishing a trip of somo six thousand miles, in less than four months, and devoting himself, on his return, to making a book of it, entitled “A Yaoht Voyage of Six Thousand Miles—Letters from High Latitudes.” It hos.run into a fourth edition in England, and having road an early oopy of the beautiful re print, to be published on Saturday, by Ticknor A Fields, ef Boston, vre o&n say that a more agree able book of travel we have never read. By the way, gala’s “ Journoy duo North,” the latest tour in Russia, published by the same house, has gone Into a seoond edition. Tioknor on July 6th and August 14th were not settled 'for until Beptember 22d; the credit then given to Mr. Newhall on those bills was from their respective dates up to September let, when he gave the £30.000 bill nf Brown & Bowen; Ido not recollect that I asked Mr. Newhall to settle these accounts ; I think the first intimation of settlement came from Mr Newhall to methat £30,000 draft given by him on September Ist, was al lowed on September 22d in the settlement: I informed Mr. Aliibone of it, and he said it was all correct: all the knowledge I had directly that Mr. Newhall had actually furnished that £BO,OOO :bill to the hank was its ,being handed to me by Mr. AUibone with A'-request to send it to Peabody & Oo : do not recollect whether AUibone said it was to bo credited to anybody; I do not recollect the steamer that carried the matl in which the £60,000 draft to Peabody was conveyed; I think the letter was mailed on the 16th of September ; I put it in the post office myself. Mr. Thayer. I suppose the account of Peabody Is in evidence ? Mr. Longhead. I consider it so. Witness to Mr. Longhead. The exchange sold to Mr. Stuart, that I spoke of yesterday, was paid for by him. To Mr. Thayer. Under date ot l4. there is a credit to the bank of £BO,OOO in Mr. Peabody’s ac count; I uodersttnd that to be for the £30,000 bill I spoke of ss got from Mr. Newhall; in tbatacoount Pea body credits the bank with the £50.000 draft, on the 2Sth of September; Mr. Stuart paid his bills of ex change by checks, dated, I think, a few days ahead; my belief is that those checks w*»re paid—how long after I cannot say; I cannot say whether they were'paid when duo; I know one was not paid for some time; I think they were sued for; (the District Attorney ob jected to ibis evidence as to Btuart’s transactions, but the court admitted it, saying, however, that it did net see its importance ;) the snit was brought by Mr. Ma c&leßter; the settlement of sterling bills left a balance in Mr. Newhall’s favor on that transaction in hJs gene ral account; I do not mean that there was any inde pendent account of these transactions, but simply a balance in his favor on these transactions in his general account; I settled with Mr. Newhall in this way: Mr. Newhall had hooght of the bnnk four bills, and had sold to the hank a bill for £60,000, and one for ££0,000; I gave him credit for the two bills he had sold, and charged him vrlth the four bills bought by him: the matter was th6n closed in Mr. Newhall’s general account by an entry in bis bank-book to his oredit for the two bills. and he gave a check for the aTount of the four bills; there rvas no separate accountof this matter; it went In bis general account, and the debits and credits would appear In his bank-book ; cannot say that Mr. Newhall had In bank, to his credit, money enough to take up those.bills, not having had oharge of that account; I was prepared to give him credit for the £3O 000 at aoy time when he might come in after September Ist, to wbloh he vras ontltled, and of course he was entitled on the 16th of Seotember to credit for the £60.000 bill. The bill for £60,000. sold by Mr Newhall to the bank, may have been brought by Ur. Newhall; cannot recollect ex actly by whom, it is so long ago ; Mr. Newhall fre quently brought bills to me directly when he bought thorn for the bank. He always paid for the sterling ex change he had before bought from the bank; thona tare of Mr. Newhall’s business, I understood, was such as to require him to buy sterling exohange; so far as I know, the bank did not lose a cent by any of the trans actions I spoke oL To Mr. Lougbead. By the last remark I speak only of my knowledge; I do not know rajeeif whether the bank has lost or is liable to lose ; tbo bank was enti tled to credit for tbe first draft for £17,000, on tbe 6th of July, unless time was specially given to Mr. New hall; ha would ant be charged with Jfc as of that date, unless he bought for oredit. To Mr. Wharton Newhall was charged with hills at 9)4 and 6£ ; the £6O OCO drat sold by him was bouvht by tho bank at 8 per cent., and tbe bank would gain by To Mr. Longhead. Tho rate of on the 16th of September was much higher than S per cent.; pil ▼a*e individuals drawing bills'uerer do command as high a price as bankers. Allen 0 Mitchener affirmed —t was employed in the Bsnk of Pennsylvania from Slay 1,1840, to March SO, 1868 ; I was rt ceiving teller for the lastfew years; the bank suspended specie payments on tbo 35th of Septem ber, 1857 ; Wednesdays and Saturdays were discount days ; daring tho last three or four y«-ars Thomas A’ll bone was president; I think he was eleoted In 1852 or ’63. or thereabouts; Mr Newhall was a director of tho bank while I was in the Institution; I cannot ssy whe ther he was a director at the time cf A llibone’s elec tion as president; he was a director iu 18-57; after the bank suspended, September 26th, it did no regular banking business; lam not positive whether a few da posits were not received tho next day and returned to the depositors? the bank W**-«lofiod for ordinary hanking business, as 1 understood ; Mr. Newhall noted kb presl deat pro tern duiog the yoar 1857. but I c&nnot say at what time; Mr. Foil also noted as president, After Mr. AUibono went home sick in October; Mr. AlUbone left tbo bunk about the 6th of October; I am not positive as to the exact day; he did not, to my recotlectlou. return to the bank after that time; after Sept 25th, .1 received current funds as receiving teller; they were handed to mo by the note clerk, and I may have received current funds in payment of debts due the bank, bat I do not now recollect this; I had some of those current funds in my possession about the 6th or 6th of October; these entreat funds had been received In payment of discounted notes, and for drafts and notes deposited by Individuals and other banks in the Bank cf Pennsylvania for collection; 1 cannot say that Mr. AUibone and Mr. NewhaU came together to obtain current funds eo tho 6th of October; 1 cannot recollect that I ever received instructions from Mr AlUbone as to those current fund*; that is, I never had any orders from him not to part with them. Mr. Thayer. Unless it is proposed to connect uswlth this we object. Mr. Loughead. Ido propose most distinctly to con nect them. I propose to show that Mr. AlUbone di. rected this gentleman to take part of that money bodi ly, and that Mr. Alllbone’s memorandum check, or something answering that purpose, was deposited to represent tho amount which was so taken. Judge Thompson. That Is evidence. Mr. Longhead. Please state that transaotlon of October 6th—whether any instructions were given by Mr AUibone? Witness On the 6th of October, 1857, Mr. AUibono handed to me a $6,060 check of Mr. Nowhall for which he got current funds; he demanded the current funds— Mr. Wh&rton. Onr objection Is a very specific one, and the question of the District Attorney was a very Srecise one—whether any instructions were glvea by (r. AlUbone on a certain point about a certain time ? The question was asked hy my learned friend, who rep resents the other defendant, whether it wss proposed to connect Mr. NewhaU with thoie Instructions, and the answer was, “yes, distinctly.” Of course, there was no objection in law to that form of the question; hut now, Instead of au answer being given to that ques tion,the witness goes on to state what Mr. AlUbone did, ho saylag nothing. That is a totally different thing. Air. Longhead. No, sir I propose to show what Mr. AlUbone said. I will ask Mr. Mitchener to state it. Mr. Meredith. That Is exictiy what la not evidence at all. It J§ of no consequence, unlossMr Newballwas with him, what Mr Allibone said. The witness has stated, not In answer to any question, that Mr. New* hall gave a check for $6,000. Mr. Allibone, it seems, presented that chock In Mr. Newhall'n absence, and It vt as paid in current funds Now, what has Mr New hall to do with that ? It is clearly objectionable. Mr. Longhead. Yonr Honor will readily perceive that there !s the closest possible connection. I pro poso toshowby this witness,and Iso stated, that Mr Al libone came and demanded from the teller—tbat is what I meant by “ instructions”—the motor upon a check of Mr. Newb&U’s. I connedt the two together. I show that Allibone gies to the teller to get the money upon a memorandum check of Mr New hall. I intend to show by this witness that he parted with that money reluctantly, and after retnon* strance, upon the express understanding that Mr. New ball would repay it. I propose to follow that up, and Bhow that upon the same day he got, In the name way, another sumof over $7,000 upon like security—that is, upon these memorandums of Mr. Newhall which are called checks—after the bank had sub pended specie pay* ments and had oloßed. Iproposo to snow that the pre* sldent and the director of this institution now npon trial were taking the funds of tbe bank upon their per* soaal responsibility, the one drawing his memorandum check, and the other taking that check and getting the money for it, against the remonstrance of tbo cusU dian of the funds of the bank. If that does not show a com* blnation, an agreement between these parties, I am at a loss to know where the evidence of It is to be fonnd. Ido not understand the oonrt to bare made any snob ruling as that I can give testimony only of whattheydid jointly together. A conspiracy is a com bination to do a part cular thing; in this instance, it Ib to cheat and defraud the stockholders of the bank. Though I cannot show that these men went bodily to gether. I can show by tbeir separate acta that combina tion, I can show by their separate acta that that agree ment was made between them j that they were using the opportunities of their places as president and as dl ireotor for the purpose of doing that which the bill of ndfetment charges; that at the very time when they wore notifying the community by placards, that cheeks would no longer be paid, thoy were obtaining money by one making and the other drawing checks. If that does not show a conspiracy or combination, I am at a loss to know what does. Air. Meredith. May it please your Honor, the testi mony as given by the witness is that Mr. Allibone pre* sonted a check drawn by Mr. Newhall on the bank, which be paid—not a memorandum cheek at all, but a ebook from the fnmls of Mr. Newhall lyiog 1° the bank. Mr. Longhead. There Is the mistake. It Is not “ which he paid”—the witness is stopped. Mr. Mereailh The offer is to show that ho paid that to Mr. Allibone, who pr“Bent*d It, in curient funds Now, unless a conspiracy is to be made out by the fact of a depositor in tho bank drawing a check on it, and another person presenting tho check and gettieg pur ulent for it, I think it Is impossible to see how this shows any connection at all, oxorpt that Mr Allibone had possession of Mr. Nenhall’a check, and that Mr. Allibone wont aud received tho money from the paying teller. Yonr Honor, of course, will decide whether this testimony is competent. Mr Longhead. This is the receiving-teller, not tho paying-teller—not the man to pay oheokß. Judge Thompson. If the bank had closed so as not to honor ohecks drawn by depositors, and Mr. Newhall drew a check which Mr. Allibone undertook and endea vored to obtain tho money of tho bank for, it would show such a connection as might Mr. Meredith. 17111 your Honor allow mo to r&y an additional word ? I omitted, perhaps, to notice an ob« j servation of the District Attorney on the subject of | di awing checks. I suppose yonr Honor cannot but be i familiar with the fact that probably there wore more j checks drawn on the B&uk of Pennsylvania immediately ! afrer its failure than on the day before, because every I depositor who could sell his deposit and who wanted the ! money would of coarse draw a check for 1 t.and that check . would pass from hand to hand and ba in any hand to whom it might happen to coroo. As your ■ Honor very well knows, there la nothing iu the Btrp- | page of a bank which prohibits the depositors from drawing their cheoks. The stoppage depreciated the checks in depreciating the credit of the bank, and, of course. If they bad occaaiou to use their deposits, they mtißt dispose of their checks. Therefore, it appears to mo that that suggestion of tho District Attorney is not entitled to anything like the force which he supposes. Mr. Loughead After the admission of the testimony the defendant wDI be at liberty to show that it was a legitimate transaction. ....... .. Judge Thompson. I understand that this was the 6th or October, and this check was drawn after Septem ber 25th, when the bank bad suspended. Mr Longhead. Yes Fir. Judge Thompson. Then, I think it is ovldence. Mr. Michener continued. On the 6th of Ootober, Mr. Allibonu came to me, and demanded of me money for a check of Newhall’s for $6,000, and I paid it; I remon strated against the payment at the time; lam the re ceiving teller and not tbe paying teller; the mosey was TWO CENTS. handed over to mo by the note olerk; I can’t say I re fused to puy tho ohook, but I objected' to it, on the ground that 4b® officers of the bank and myself had stated to depositors and others who had notes for col-* lection, that ourrent funds only would be received in pay ment for thoß® notes, and that they would be paid with funds the notes were paid in; AlUbone said he tttuat bavo the money, to the best of my recollection; he said It wouldbe returned in current funds: I lefttbe bank In March, 1858; current funds had not been re turned at that time for that check; Mr. Newhali’s check for $7,310.63. dated October 5, 1867,1 paid also to ;Y r *«!!£ oxie ’ tlie beßt of “yrecollection; Ithfnk the $9,000 was paid in the morning, and th© other after wards; there was no conversation In relation to that second cheek that I now recollect; no remonstrance, that I recollect, on my part; this money that I paid was recetvtdfrom the discounted notes, 4-c; there was more money tr.an that received from discounted notes • I can’t recollect positively thst I saw Mr. NewhaU about the bank that day; I saw him there almost every day; lam pretty positive about the date of these checks; I can’t recolleot positively that I spoke to NewhaU about these checks ; I think I spoke to him once, but never got any reply ; neither of them was redeemed up to the time I (eft the bank. Q. Wore any more ourrent funds given to Mr. New haU after that? ‘ A. Yes, sir. Mr. Wharton. Was that in Mr. Allfbone's presence ? Witness. No, sir. - Mr. Wharton. We object to that, unless the defend ants %re connected in some way, by cheek or otherwise. Mr- Thayer. There is another ground of objection There is not a word about this lost matter in the bUI of particulars. -w . Hr. Longhead. We shall see about that. I am not bound to give in a bill of particulars, time, place, and 'circumstance. • Mr. Wharton. My objection is irrespective of the bill of particulars. Judge Thompson. The objection as made by Mr. Wharton is a good one. Mr. Longhead. On that point I have a word or two to say. I understand that Mr. Wharton objects to my question. Judge Thompson. I have overruled the question. Mr. Lodghead. I should like verymuoh to'say a word or two on that question before the court decides Judge Thompson. -1 thought you had stated every thing you desired. Mr. Longhead. No, sir; I had stated nothing. Judge Thompson. I understood you to ask this wit ness whether Mr. NewhaU had obtained any of the money at any other time Mr. Longhead. Yes, sir, whether he obtained from the reoeivisg-teiler the money which had bsen in the receiving-teller’s drawer at any other time, and If So, under what circumstances. Judge Thompson. If that is to be connected with air. AlUbone in any way, it is evidence, the same as the 2®* i ?„ u .* ** ** was merely money obtained by Mr. NewhaU himself, it c&nnot be given in evidence. Mr. Longhead. Ido not know that I shall directly connect Mr. AUibono with the receipt of that eum of money; but I respectfully submit to the court that this is c 'mpetent testimony in this stage of the-cause. I have shown that those two defendants were intimate; I have shown that one was acting as president of the bank for the other; he was transacting the executive business, knowing theaffslrs of the bank. Ihaveshown them, in one transaction at least, of a similar kind, get ting money. And now I askthe court toadmittestimony to show the individual acts of each of these defendants In teference to these sums of money. 1n order to trace oat by their conduct the common conspiraoy, one combina tion between them, at least, having been already proved. It is for that purpose that I put the question. I pro pose now to prove that the defendant NewhaU obtained a lavge sum of money from the same fund from which Allibnne had before obtained the earn I 'have already proved on Newh<’s check. I propose then to enbmit these facts to the jury as jndges of tho facts, whether they do cot plainly establish a combination between them. They knew that there was in the bank this fund of correct money. They went into the bank and ob tained 513,000 cn Newhatl’s check, not drawn the day. when the panic came, as Mr. Meredith intimated, but drawn at least ten days after the failure of the bank. Mr. AlUbone drew that $lB,OOO. Now, I offer to provo that it was not Mr. AlUbone who went the next time, bnt Mr. NewhaU who went and got $16,600 of that money'whioh was lying in the drawer, from'the receiving teller. I propose toconneot the two together in this way; it was a special fund; they had made one attack upon ft; one conspirator had got $13,000 of it on one day; and on the next dar, or a • few days after, the other went to get $16,000 of it. Tf that does not connect them; if that is not evidence by which the jury may infer this combination ; if that is not what Judge Eing speaks of In the case cited by me in my opening, when he says proof is those single acts which appear to move from one, but which, in reality, when scrutinised, ohow the combina tion of-more, then I am at a loss to know how we are to follow those seoret conspiracies, or how we are able to trace them out. Judge Thompson. Ido not think it is admissible In tbe present aspeot of the case If yon had shown that dti’-ing the time when Mr. Newhall was left president of the bank under Mr. Aliibone’s appointment this thing had taken place, ft would be admifslble lo evfdenoe, be cause that might be a fact to show that there was a combination, that there was a placlngofMr. NewhaU in that position to enable them to do this. It would then be connected with Mr AlUbone Bat that Mr. NewhaU took somebody elie’a check—a separate, distinct trans action—and asked the teller for tbe money, does not seem to me to be In any way connected with the acts of Mr AlUbone. Mr Longhead. Your Honor misapprehends. I pro pose to show that Mr. Newhall went with his own check. Mr Brewster. That is still worse. Mr. Longhead I agree that it is still worse, and therefore I urge ft Mr Brewatoi. It is still worse for the purposes of your offer If he went with hi« own check. That is en tirely disconnected with the other defondant. Judge Thompson. I thick it is not evidence unless you connect them by some kind of tie Mr. Longhead, well, I will ask the witness, Mr. Miohener, if he recollects Mr Newhsll’s acting as pre aidant of the bank alter tho $l3 810 63 was obtained by* Mr. Ail'bonf.' Mr Miobensr. Ido not reoollFct It. • - ■ ' Q. Had you any conversation with Mr. Alllbone in relation to those transactions with Hr. NewhaU ? A. No, air. Cross examined by Mr. Brewster.—The checks I have spoken of were handed over to the assignees of the bank when I left; they wore both dated on the 6th of October, X 867; I took a memoranda of the dates; tbe signature to the checks was T. A. Newhall; I don’t know to whom they were payable; T don’t think they were payable to the order or any one; they were made pavabl® to bearer; they were cot memorandum checks, they appeared t»be drawn regularly; they had not the word memorand on them; my report refers to the date of tbe checks as well as to the date of their payment; they were paid on the same day; we had two receiving telt“rs; Mr. Newhsll’s acc unt was kept by Mr. B:ay; I did not consult bis acocnt or see it that day; I don’t know he had any balance to his credit at that date ; I handed over these checks to the custody of the assign ees about the beginning of the year; I handed over everything in my hands belonging to tbe Institu tion ; l don’t remember if there were any other ohecks except ohecks of our own bank, which were mark ed good; I have no doubt there were checks drawn by other parties .besides Mr. Newhall; there may have been a dozen or not so many; all the checks that were handed over to the assignees were In a bundle, and were not counted by me at the time; tho checks marked good were received as a special de posit, and were kept as a security for some matters in my hands. To the Court. These were checks and notes that were brought to the bank by Mr. NewhaU after tbe bank had suspended but were not put to his credit on the borks of the bank; I have no recollection or any other check that was paid in current fund* after the* bank stopped payment; there may have been some others that wore paid; I recollect Mr. W. P. Newlfn did get somo current foods for his check, which he af terwards returned in current funds in a few days; It may be possible that Mr. AUibone got funds on Mr. Lockwood’s check; I do not reoollect it; I recollect that Mr. Fell instructed me to give Mr. NewhaU $lO,BOO, and he left $lO,OOO in uncurrent funds; I don’t recolleot that any other person, got currentfuods. except parties who left notes for collec tion, aud they, of course, were paid in current funds; I recollect making payments to Mr. Walter for collec tions In current funds: I understood them to be for collections ; I recollect sir. Oox coming to me in rela tion to something that was deposited in Baltimore; I don’t remember the note ol the Schuylkill Navigation Company being there for collection; I say there were some funds deposited fa the ordinary way; none ef them remained more tb&n a day or two after the sus pension; after that, I can’t recollect that any funds were deposited ; I don’t recollect any ohecks beingpald after the suspension; Mr. Fell got no other money fa payment of the deposit of nncurrent funds by Mr New hall, except what was paid Newhall; there were no ohecks either drawn or paid after the suspension, that I recollect; what the other teller did 1 can’t say; I have not been active at all in this proseoutiou; the District Attorney had me before tho Grand Jury: the District Attorney sent for me, and I went to his office : I don’t think I was ever there but once; I have not written to him on the subjeot; I don’t know that I could tell anything by the examination of Mr. Look wood’s account; I don’t know that there was anybody present when Mr. AlUbone got the motley on Sir. Lock wood’s check ; the transaction took place at my desk. To Mr Thayer. I understood that after the failure of tbe bank, efforts were made to set it going again. I do not know that there was great anxiety to get in all the notes of the bank. I know that they were anxious to get in all the debts that were doe to the hank. I don’t know the fAOt that they get in a large snm of their circulation. They got it in »a payment for debts; wbatHmonot I esn’t say They allowed payments to be made in notes of the bank that were due to the bank. Mr. NewhaU brought In some several thousand doUars to deposit, which was made a Bpeclal deposit It amounted to $43,000 in the whole. He brought this sum to deposit in tho notes of the bank and ohecks. The checks that I have spoken of were not drawn against that fund that I know of. Those ohecks were not eba ged against Mr. Nowhall. I supposed that they wore charged against his account. I don’t know that ho had anything there tohla c eiit. fAcconntshown witness.] Have uever seen this account before. It is not in mv handwriting; have never mado it; don’t know anything about it at all. Mr. Thayer. Do you know what transactions are re ferred to in that account? Mr. Longhead. I object to that. The witness says be does not know anything about it; he never made that memorandum; it Is not his account at all, and I object to his being questioned about it. Ur Thayer Do you know Inwhosß handwriting ft is? Witness. TnMr Steelwagen’s, I judge. He was the general book-keeper of the Bank of Pennsylvania. To the Judge. The $26,000 mentioned on the ticket handed to me was composed of checks marked “ good,” and Bank of Pennsylvania notes. What the oheoks were I do not know. Mr Thayer handed the witness two checks, one for $6,000 and $7,310.03. both dated Ootober 6th, 1857, and signed “T.\A. Newhall ” > Witness. I think those are the checks for which I gavo current funds on tho6th of Ootober; I have so dcobt of it. Mr. Longhead. I object to those ohecks going to the jury now Let them come in their proper place—in the case of the defence. Mr. Thayer. These are the Identical checks. Mr. lougho&d. That is a matter for the defenoe. It will be for them to show how and when they got these checks. Mr. Thayer. They have been brought here to-d-iy by the assignees of the bank. They belong to the bask. Mr. Longhead Then you oan Fhow that. Mr. Thayer. But they were drawn against this spe cial deposit, on account of which there was da© to os a very large amount. ... . , Mr Lougheid. Yon are not on the witness stand, my friend. We do not want your statements made in that way. ...... Mr Tusyor. We do not wish to allow your mis statements to go. t Mr. Loughead. We shall pnt you on the witness stand when we want your testimony, sir. Mr. Thryer. I propose to offer these two cheoks in oridonco, may it please the court. The witness says ho holieves thot-o were the two checks which were handed to him for the current funds. Mr Longhead If it is understood that they come hero as the property of the assignees of the bank, and are produced by them, I have no objection to the checks going to the jury at once. Mr. Thayer. That is bo. The assignees have simply lent them to us for the purposes of evidence. Mr. Loughead. The faot of their being produced by tbe defendant would leavo another inference. Cross examination of Mr. Michener continued. The figures on the ticket—sl6,ooo and s26.ooo—wore made by me : I believe these to be the amounts of the Pennsyl vania bank-notes and checks deposited by Mr. Newhall In the bank; $26,631 30 represents bank-notes and checks deposited by Mr. Newhall, aud for the $l6 3861 gave slo,*oo in current funds, by Mr. Fell’s direction: tbe bank notes and oheoks mentioned on thattloket were not credited to Mr. Newhall in bis general account to my knowledge; If those sums were passed to New hall’s oredtt, and the funds paid on accountof them were charged to him, there would be about $l9 000 in his fa vor : after deducting other matters claimed by the assignees, there would be abouts9,QQO, NOTICE TO jCOIKREBFOIfOENTB.
