Brady remarked that Pe first la directed
to Mr. Sickles by Mr. Key, and dated March 281.1 i,
1858. and encloses elitetters, onerifthem written
by Mr. Key, and the otherCwritten by different
persons to him,
alijeot to them.:
Mr. Beady. On what ground ?'
' Mr Ould. The first letter purporting to be from
Mr. Kerte. Mr. - Siekles, enclosing certain other
'ooninstinications addressed' to various parties—one
to Mr. Wooldridge and his reply ; one to Marshal
J. Bacon and his reply ; one from' Mr. - Key to Mr
Beekman and his reply ; all in'the handwriting of
Mr. Key and all the first purporting to be copies
of other letters. The date of nearly all of them
is March 25th. 1858. The first letter says—" I
mend by Josiah D. Hoover the correspondence had
-to-day, etc."—elluding to certain matters, por
tione,-of which have been detailed to day as
part of the expected evidence of the defence.
The objection is that this correspondence
at present seems .to be in no manner
connected` with the issue the (gnt and jury
are now trying. Besides, the note from Mr, 'Key
to Mrs. Sickles is dated a year ago, and as it
unist•relate to transactions before the tragedy, it
must be excluded in point of time from the it reit
gestic.", Another objeotien is that it shows no re
lotion, direct or indirect, to the matter before the
jury I should like to know on what peculiar
ground' this correspondence is Vibe offered as evi
dence? • '
Mr. Brady. I will state it The learned Dis
trict Attorney, in opening the ease.- told the jury
that the Government, speaking through him, could
ascribe the sot of Mr. Sickles in killing Mr: Key
to no other impulse than remorseless revenge. lie
painted Mr. Sickles as an asaiissin. There is .ne
pita before the jury that Mr. Key and Mr. Sick
lee met each other before the time of that fatal 00-
currenee. The jury have nothing in their minds
as to their former personal relations. ,The cause
of their meeting and the relations and eir
cumatinces, are left 'to ' such 'inferences ns tho
jury Meat' necessarily draii front • them in the
absence of this testimony. We do not propose
offering the testimony to prove the adulterous sot
on the part of Mr. Key, but to show the friendly
relations between the deceased and accused. His
Honor geld, in the ease of Jarboe, that theleolara-
Gone of the defendant in his Own 'favor are ad
missible in murder, and only in murder, but they
numbs declarations of kind feeling—to acts of a
friendly oharaoter, or such like, toward the de-
Ceased, prior to the commission of the crime with
which he is'oharged. I understand that this cor
respondence between the two gentlemen la of
such a character es to.show relations of a friendly
character, and that Mr. Rey treated Mr. Sickles
as an equal and friend at that day. -
Mr. Oald. There is no communication on the,
face of the papers from Mr. Sickles to Mr. Key—
no expression of either a kindly or a hostile feel
ing. There' was only a note of Mr. Key to Mr.
Sioltles, - in which their relations are not substan
tittilrencebod on'-at all. Thera was nothing to
show their friendship continued throughout the
.year previous to the killing.
Mr. Brady replied, claiming the admission of
this testimony on the same ground as decided in
the Jarboe ortee. The question was, was such
ovidenne competent 9—and this beingadmitted, its
value was to be determined by•the Jury. When
the prosecution charged Mr. Sickles with de
liberate assassination on Mr. Key, in broad day
light, the law gives ns the right to prove that Mr -
Sioklesis not an assassin.. and that his hands are
not polluted by blood. Did not the District At
torney say that Mr. Key's letter to Mr. Sickles
does not contain any expression of good-will: The
jury. will determine that, but the 'letter ' com-
Mann "Dear Sir, " and ends Reepootfully and
truly yours." I f we show friendly. relations
in 1953, the low would presume continuous
relations of friendship until something inter -
muted them. We claim that the letters are ad
missible on another point—namely, as showing,
by Mr. Key's own admission that he had most
intimate relations with Mr. and Mrs. Sickles, and
that they belfeved his intimacy of an innocent
and honorable character; and we claim they
are admissible, as showing the origin of the pecu
liar relations between Mr. Key and Mrs. Sickles.
Mr. Carideo said this was a case in which the doors
Omuta not be thrown open to what was not evidence,
but they should confine themselves to the mode of proof
which the law assigns in this cone. They should go no
further than public justice requires Your Wonor
would perceive the actual use which it was proposed to
make of this testimony. 'Von hare heard in what man
ner this correspondenoe in to be connected with tble
unhappy ca'astrophe—m the way of blackening the
character of. the deceased. On that nomad it could
not bo received The eloquent ,address of the
learned gentleman for the defence warrants Us
in believing it was offered for that purpose. It
leroffered fleet to bear on the question whether thin
act of homicide wee an assassination. My learned
colleegne, although he did not seethe word, painted it
as one of assassination, and for the'parpeee of showing
It was net an assassination; my learned b-others offer

whether it be gold. or ambition, or vengeance for a

it in any other
Mr. Brady. These letters go to prove the fact of Mr.
Bev a friendly relations.
Mr. OarVele. I was coming to that. •
Mr. Brady 'farther explained the object in offering
thane lettere r Wieling that there wee a state or thioge
wbioh prevents Mr. Plates from being convicted of
o crime.,
Mr. Oarßele, resuming, said that when be used the
we'd SMANUSUOD, be quoted from hie learned oppo
nent, and had asserted that the evidence did not tend,
tf admisethle, to chow it weal:Mt 11)3 assassination. And,
secondly, it this kind of evidence of previous friendly
Watkins were admitted to chow It was not en sameal
nation, certainly evidence reaching beck nearly a year
before the transeetton was not evidence It tends to
shed no ray of light, which any reasonable mind can
perceive, on the question. Be farther replied to Mr.
Brady.
Mr. Phillips said the relations the parties
been to each other is pertinent to the Issue,
because the Issue ii, not the killing of the de
catered, but the murder, In which is implied that mallet+
by, which the law designates the offense. The pre
aumption maybe contradicted, and one of the suedes by
which it may be done is to ascertain V the relation
which the parties bore to each other. This may
be: demonstrated by acts of friendship or nor.
respondence. In the present case we prow e
to demonetrate it by the latter mode. The
only question for the court Is the competency of
such testimony, which maybe as duet in the betan.e;
but lie effect and weight is for the jury As to thepoint
of time, we may trace beck acts or friendship and Inti
macy, and runback to the days of- boyhood, proving
such relations' from Infancy .to the present time.
Length of time, Instead of weakening, strengthens the
argument that he was not killed With malice. We are
not called on to give the order of time. This is but
on, link of the chain of .531rcumttancei to show
friendship -prior to the date of the tragedy, which
continued down to within a few days of the commisaitu
of the act.
The (Mart mild the object of the deteoce WAS
to show the relatione of too puttee to each other.
The law undoubtedly le, when a man is on trial for
murder, prevlone expreolons of good-will and sate of
kindneas towards the deceased may be preyed. On
this ground the court understood these lettere to be
offered; but the one he had read was etmply courteous,
and had no bearing on the lune. The lettere are not
evidence.
Mr. Brady took an exception to this ruling, and then
to a ruling which minded Mr. Key's lettere apart from
the enclomares -,
The following are the letters;

not having a goodplaca there, I asked her to ltd.

she could have it better place, and where
Mr. Sickles was; I there met Mr. Key, in wee
of the private parlors, and, it I mistake not, Mr.
Baskin was there, too.

were certainly in the building ; I think that , at

Q. What was the last time you saw Mr. Key?
A. I presume it must hove been , about twelve
o'clock on the Saturday before the day of de
death ; I was starting from Mr. Hoovers hot,se

A New Name for the 9ffi,elatOrgan.
The name of the official organ 'at Washing
ton, recently transferred under a peculiar ar
rangement, which may form the subject of fu-
tura investigation, by Contlntus WENDELL, to
Gen. Geono W. BOWMAN, IS to he changed
from The Mien yhe Comtitittion. Its
new managers have resolved to r , let 'the
Union' slide'? and in view of the recent course
and history of that journal, the determination
cannot be regarded as an s unwtse one. The
Union was originally published .by BLAIR' &
Rtyas under the title of The Globe, and under
their management, during the, Administra
tions of JACKSON and VAN BUREN, was
to slo,o97,—viz : salaries of teachers, $16,880;
books and stationery, $824; incidentals,
$1,302. The cost for educating ouch pupil,
including books, stationery and incidentals, is
a fractionof $B5. In the Central High School
there aro 515 boys, whose average attend
ance is 511, Mr. M.4.auttie, the Principal, is
paid $2 000 a year. Four other Professors are
eAch paid $1,500 ; one receives $l,BBO :
five receive $1,200 per annum each, and one
(Dr. Ironins, Professor of MOral, Mental, and
Political Science,) has so little as $660 a
year.
In the Normal School, the expenses are es
timated at $6,332 for 1858, viz : for salaries
$4,512 ; for books and stationery, $lB4 ; for
incidental expenses, $636. The average an
nual cost of each pupil is less than $27. Mr.
P. R. ORaGAR, Principal of the Normal
School, reports 212 female pupils attending
on February, 1858 ? and learning the various
branches which constitute a good English
education, to be acquired in three years,
though It Is often done in less, from previous
training, ability, and application. Mr. One-
GAIL highly eulogizes the beneficial effects of
the calisthenic and gymnastic exercises, in
what is called the School of Practice.
• In the Grammar, Secondary, and Primal
Schools, the expenditure in 1c 58, was $366,-
910, viz for salaries of teachers, $286,038 ;
books and stationery, $33,803 ; for incidental
'expenses, $47,068.
The cost:of the whole School System of
Philadelphia is $475,781, made up of various,
items of which the most important are Sala
ries of Teachers, $808,618; Books and Sta.
timiery, $31,947; cleaning School-hOuses,
$28,295; rents of School-houses, $21,766;
repairs and additions, $19,262; ground rents,
$8,695; fuel, $17,209; furnaces and stoves,
$6,1 06 ; night-schools, $11,270; furniture,
$8,130. In 1858, the City Councils appro
priated $481,707 to the Public Schools, and
of, this a balance of $5,873 was on hand at the
I close of the year.
To 59,400 pupils, in 314 Schools, there are
1,018 teachers, 24 controllers, and 315 di
rectors. •
For further information ori the subject'of
he Public Schools, we refer -to the Report
tself, and will only say of it, in conclusion,
that it is drawn with ,singular clearness, con
cealing nothing, exaggerating nothing, and
confirming our strong faith in the Public
School system of Philadelphia.
i'ablie Amusementg
Mr. Frazeria concert, at Musical rand Hall,
this evening promises to be a decided success.
The vocal performers are -Miss Susan May, M'lle
Anna Wieder, and Mr. Frtixtr ; the instrumental,
Mr. Charles Jarvie at the piano-fgrte, Mr. Jong-
Woke!, violoncello, and Mr. Harvey, violin.
There is now performing, at-Walnut-street The
atre, a very able young notiess, Miss Fanny Fits
Parrett, daughter of that Mra. Farren who has an.
gaited considerable popularity at a star," and
is enable performer at this day, belonging to the
" sanitation" school. It is of the young lady, how
ever, that we desire to speak. She is yet in her
teens, has a brilliant complexion, good eyrie, Sae
hair, a neat figure, sweet voice, and graceful, Im
mune natural, aotion. She has received an excel
lent education, without her relatives having the
slightest idea that she ever would. enter the pro
fession. But the Farms, like the Hemblea, the
Wallacks,_and the Yininga, seem destined for the
stage. Mies Fitz. Perron, we suppose, . oonld
not help herself. Nature had determined to
make an actress of her, and Nature had very
pretty materials for the purpose. The young
lady, whose practice has not yet been very,great,
(she is only a few months on the stage,) is already
a good comedienne, and we anticipate a bright
future for her. Last night she had an enthueiestio
reception, as Constance, in "The Love Chase."
This evening she appears es Lucretia Borgia.
Our American Cousin" continues unceasingly
attractive at Arch-street T:matre. At New York,
Miss Laura Keene committed the mistake of with
drawing it on its fulness of popularity. Mr.
Wheatley, we suppose, will be wiser. It is sue
seeded every evening by an interesting afterplece.
The report from MoDonough's Gaieties is very
lively; hundreds of people refund admieston on
Saturday, from want of room, though the house
does hold a tidy number. Fanny Forrest and
Eliza, Thielman, and the usual strong company,
improved by the addition of the Hutchinson Final
ly, are attractive.
Thomo•lfs Varieties is orewded every evening,
with a farce and other performances.

"Oa Friday and Saturday Miss Davenport revived
her version of the "Dame aug Camaiste," which
she produced at. the Broadway Theatre five years
ago. The perforiganee on Friday attracted a full
house, and,, notwithstanding its length, fixed the
attention of - the audience from the beginning to
the end of the play. The applause was frequent
and hearty, wane many of the softer aex gave

Mine Davenport played admirably, and we have

at the same time, so ;free, from objectionable
features. The others were fair, and Mr. and Mrs.

B Y MIDNIGHT MAIL
Letter front ,4 Occneionale"
[Correspondence Of The Press.'
WASDINOTON, April 11,1859.
Exposures will be made at the next session of
Congress of a character to demand the Impeach
ment of high dams of the Government. It
would seem that in many departments there is
not only a deliberate disregard of the letter of the
lair, bnt, more ehamoful feet still. that there has
been authorized violations of the sanctity of pri
vate corrospondenoe. To relieve our institutions
from the infamy that the present Administration
has put upon thorn, and to save us from that dire
calamity, in which the finger of scorn would point
at us from every quarter of the civilized world,
it is a bounden duty of every man, whether a re
presentative or the people, journalist, or other
wise, to so mate the facts appear that they will
call down at once crushing denunciations upon
the heads of the guilty. Bare is one : A gentle.
men, in one of the great cities of the West, bolds
himself responsible, with another, on oath, to prove
that not only were documents ordered not to be dis
tributed when sent by a certain Senator, but that
letters were also violated. An investigating com
mittee will, I understand, be called upon this mat
ter as well as upon the mal praotices of the rest
Office Department, at an early day of the session.
So insecure has the transmission of private cor
respondence become, that ono might well think
there was here, as In the palmy days of the
Austrian despotism, a censor of the mails—one
who, with diabolical ingenuity, got inside of let
ters and allowed all 111 pass that were uneicep.
tionable to its requiregents and withheld all that
weru - caleulated to defeat or embarrass the pur
poses of the powers that are." Again have
sealing wax and doop.ont seals come Into almost
general use. Complaints arise on all aides that
letters are lost.
Then, again, the stracgest rumors Heat about
of votes purchased by money raised from per
oentages upon contracts. I learn that a Phila
delphian, who (tomes hero occasionally, hesitates
not to tell that he was ordered to pay a per
-contage on what ho received for printing the post
office blanks, to a high officer of one of the depart
ments. All these things, and others, must come
out. The result, the consternation of good men,
can only be Imagined. -
The Democratic party has always maintained
itself in power by devotion to principle, and its
advocacy of retrenchment and reform in the pub
lie expenditures, and it cannot now belie its his
tory. Corrupted for a brief space, it will return
to the teachings of its founders.
In the North already, the iniquity of this Adml
nistration has deprived it of power; and today,
in the South, it is becoming surely Tylerized.
Ilan. Jere. Clemens denounces it in Alabama;
Mississippi politicians spurn it; Kentucky treats
it with contempt ; anti so with the other Southern
States In Georgia, particularly, and elsewhere
in the South generally, the Union man of 1850—
the men who elevated Ilccavell Cobb to the
Gubernatorial chair, and upon the prin.
oiplos of popular sovereignty and non•inter
vention, everywhere defeated the fire eaters
and disurtionists—are again gathering their
hosts for renewed battle. Forsyth, ex.ral
ulster to Mexico, draws up an indictment against
Mr. Buchanan ,and his advisers, which fastens
upon them ineffable wickedness in their bomb go
vernment, and a weakness and incompeteney in
foreign relations that are unparalleled in any
history. Judge Wright, in Congress, from Geor
gia, boldly flings to the breeze the anti-Lecompton
banner; and heand those who gave Cobb and
others their prominence in the SJath, will now,
since they have falsified their pledges, and apse.
tatized from the true faith, proclaim and condemn
their treachery.
The Sickles trial i3ontinnes to excite Unusual
attention. There was a large crowd in the court
i9 - 4.a.f. to Baton .to tho close of Mr. Graham'
speech. For an opening 'ewes rather long. lio
bodido4tirtbSikBfekies will be acquitted.
Iris amusing to unties the mutual admiration
of the New , Yorkers attracted here by the trial.
Lawyers are puffed byTthe reporters,, and when
that grows tedious they, turn round and natter
themselies into the .belief that they are unex
celled. One bee been advanced to royalty ;in_
the profession. I presume it is the duty of short
hand writers to bow down to him, although they
may believeof bim as Oxenstiern did of the men of
Frankfort. Said the wily old statesman to his son,
"Go, my child, and see by what ineapables the
world is governed."
This thing of admiration has gone so far that a
New York member of Congress was disgusted with
it, and bad to rebuke it a few evenings since, at a
gathering of the mutual admirers.'
It is doubtful whether Lord Lyons hee intros-
Hone to cover the late developments of Gore
Cooley's diplomacy in Central America. Gen.
Cass will rehearse to him the promises of the Bit
tish Government, andlow they have been broken,
and then the negotiations will goon as they have
gone on since Crampton left, and' with like un
profitable results. Not even the searob question
is finally adjusted, notwithstanding the sapient_
Dogberrys of the Batrisburg Offioe-holders' Con.
vention so announced it. The same Convention'
gave great credit to Mr. Buchanan for bringing
the Indian : trans to .a happy termination, but re
frained from stating what lawn wars Only a
day or two ago, too, the Union was full of orders
from the War Department calling upon the troops
for a vigorous campaign against the Indians on
our frontier. Probably the 'Convention bad not
Gradgrind's affection for feels, and believed that
consistency was a scoundrelly virtue.
