Ott Tuesday last the final hearing of Messrs. fisher, lllig, Ozenreider, Reed, Filbert, Muthart and Seidel, charged with conspiracy against the United States, under the act. of March 3d, 1868, was held before United States Commissioner ileallett, in Philadelphia. The District Attorney represented the prosecution, and Messrs, J. Glancy Jones, J. P. O'Neill and Charles Buck waiter, the defence. The first witness called was Levi Stoltz, who was usable to speak English. Er Sheriff Manderbaelt, el Berke ceenly, acted as interpreter. Levi Stoltz, sworn—My name is Levi Stoltz; I live in Jackson township, Lebanon county ; I am a carpenter; know Huber; saw him at Sellers' ; was at a meeting with him; at an outside meet ing; any one could come; the meetings were held in the house and in the barn; after the meeting in the house there was one in the barn; Huber was there; cannot say if Oxenreider was there. In regard to the alleged private meeting the wit ness wan entirely ignorant. Samuel Molter, sworn—l live in Bern township, Berke county ; I understand bat little English ; am a distiller; was born in Berke county ; know Seidel; Seidel swore me into the society in April bun t Hither was not there, or Ozeureider or any of the others charged ; paid a dollar cn joining; the society met at Henry Moser's; was initiated at a private meeting; no guards were outside; persons who were not members did not try to get in; I swore to the Union and the Constitution that was all; were told that we must be drafted as the rest, and should not resist the draft; we were sworn not to resist the draft ; we were sworn to support the draft. Mr. Coley—Was there a public meeting held before you went into the barn ? Witscaa—We wore not in the barn. The dollar was paid by us to pay for flags, etc. We swore we would not resist the draft; that was a part of the oath; no speeches were made; the meeting lasted about an hour; I have told everything to which I owe, and ell that was done at the meet ing; the whole hoar was consumed in adminis tering the oath ; do not know to bow many it was administered; there were private signs ; we were sworn not to tell the secret ; the secret consisted in the signs and passwords ; we held up our right hands to support the Union, the Cons' itntion, and the draft; I do not remember the passwords; only attended one meeting, and none since; do not know how many were initiated ; a good many were there; . nob dy explained the meaning of the signs; the meeting was a common Denitierat is meeting; I do not know why they had the signs and passwords; have heard of other meet ings where they had signs and passwords ; do not know that secret meetings are against the princi ples of the Democratic party, Sarah Batter , sworn—l live in Berke county, in Lower Heidelberg; know Huber; was at a house where he had a meeting ; there was a private meeting; Huber was there; know most all who were at the.meeting ; it was in the beginning of March, at William Hart's; I was there as a ser vant maid ; was in the room below, which was the kitchen; about forty persons came into the room where Huber was ; if they were drafted, each should get a pistol and resist being taken ; be said this ate* they were morn in; I did not hear all that was said; saw them in the room with their right hands raised; I was looking through a knot hole; they talked so mud' about the Republicans that I listened; Haber swore the men in; I cannot say how long he was in swearing them in; after that he showed the signs, and said that if "the secesh" should happen to come into the country they should raise their hats three times, and then their property would not be taken ; if one met allether be should say R. D., and the other should say H. 0. ; he also showed the grip of the society, which ehe described as giving one finger and touching the wrist with the under finger. The witness continued Huber talked to them after they were sworn in, saying if they wanted him they should write that • he should come and pay his debts;" if they were drafted they should not go, but should resist the draft ; I knew a good many there ; . their names are Rudolph, Osumi, John and Richard Rail, Abe Mualmyt, Gabriel Ruhl, Gabe Schwarz, Henry Boyer, Hy man Moyer,Benneville Moyer, Peter Peifer. 'William Heb erling, William Schaefer, and a man named Eshleman ; they all live in the same neigh borhood. Cross-examined by Mr. have known Reber since Christmas last; had not seen him from that time to March; at the time they were in the meeting I sat on the wood chest; all the time until I went to bed; I looked through a small knot bole in the door; was not afraid of being seen while there ; the men stood in a ring around the table; I saw Huber giving them the grips. At this time Mr. O'Neill approached the wit— TIM and the questions and answers were so in— distinct as to prevent our catching either. Henry D. &hoedler, amerw—l live in Reading ; know Mr. Seidel; on the evening of the last spring election he asked me why I did not join their club— He told me it would cost me a dollar to join; I know Mr. Mnthart. Cram examined by Mr. Jones—l am a member of other societies where an initiation fee is paid ; I paid $5 to the American Mechanics' Society of Reading; Mr. Seidel in a man of property ; he holds property in trust for others; from what. I have heard of Mr. Muthart's character, and what I know of him, I do not think that he would in any way assist in breaking the laws; he would at all hazards maintain his Constitutional rights. Mr. Jones did net want to travel outside of the record, as had many times been done in the pro gress of this trial. Three meetings have been held, and nothing had been proved even against Mr. Huber that subjects him to triaL A great deal had been said and dm, but to -little pm— ? se. The District Attorney had - certainly la— with the utmost assiduity ; the only difS— •-as that he was fishing in waters where no esfriWre to be found. The speaker continued, that he merely wished to bring to the notica of the commissioner Gig real intention of the society, as he had gathered it from the testimony. Much had been said distorting its purposes ; but he had been informed that the object of the association was simply to protect its members against any future aggressions on their constitutional rights; not to resist the draft, nor to resist the officers of thh Government, nor to violate the law of the lend in any particular; but, if future contingen cies should arise requiring it, to protect their rights_ Caley—.. What are those contingencies ?" Mr. Jones—Many people in Berke county are apprehensive that their property may be destroy ed; that they may not be allowed to vote; that .yntilie meetings may be prohibited that they may not be able to protect their homes, their - wives and children with their own arms. Conannmoner Heazlitt—.. That is supposing all law to be at an end." The Commissioner at this point recommended that the hearing be brought to a close. Mr. Jones had the same wish ; he had endeav ored to keep out of it all extraneous matters, and Lad ant in any way alluded to political matters. On one occasion he had been compelled to reply as to a transaction which had 000urred in Berke county, with which he had no more connection than the District Attorney himself, excepting that he aequieseesl is it cordially, e s he would again. lie would now confine himself strictly to the law and the facts. The question had been asked a witness whether he was a Democrat? Mr. Coffey stated that he Made this inquiry to show that he was separating the case from any— thing political. Ile wished to establish that the society was net Democratic, but an excrescence which intended to resist. by force actual or anticipated evil. He was not objecting to anything public and open, hut a conspiracy to resist a law of the United States, lie saw in the case before hint Inure or less leagueing together to oppose the laws of the United States by force. Mr. Jones wished to ask a question: Why did the District Attorney ask the witness Was he a Democrat ?'" Mr. Coffey replied that he had made the inqui ry for the purpose of showing that this was not merely a Democratic association, but was merely a pretence for the purpose of resisting the draft. When Seidel asked Mr. Schoedler to join the Club, he did not say, " Will yon join a Demo cratic Club?" There was a vast difference be tween inculcating Democratic ideas and making a false nee of party feeling. Mr. Jones said that the defendants were pres ent to answer charges under the law, and he himself was there as counsel in their defence He was not a member of the society. He spoke from information derived from his clients and from the testimony. His clients had been in structed by him to come without witnetta6B, Ram' much as the proceedings would be entirely ex ' parte. The question was, whether they were in nocent or guilty; whether they had said or done anything that violated the law. It was due to them, as well as to himself, to state that not a single witness could be produced here or else. where, to prove that any member of the Society arrested had ever said that be would resist the draft by force, or had ever done anything which ;quid bg 89 mmetrued. Mr. Jones said that this was certainly true. As far as his knowledge went., nothing of the kind had been done. Hs here repeated what Huber had said in regard to loading their guns with salt. . . Mr. Huber might have said what Misa Bauer had repeated as laiving come to her ears through the knot hole, but the fact of her father being an enrolling officer might have made her ears par ticularly sharp. Mr. Jones pointed out the dis parity in the testimony, all of them witnesses for the Government, regarding the form of the oath. One witness had "sworn that it was to resist, another, to support the draft. In his opinion, Mr. Seidel was only preparing for contingencies which might arise and threaten his own property and t h at which he held in trust ter others, All the meetings held by him had been held in open day and in public places. The assurance could be given with safety that the draft would not be resisted in Berke county. No such intention had ever existed. Mr. Joliet tapas& that there was an appre hension for the future; that the people were alarmed; they were fearful not so much of the present as of the tendencies of the future. The intention was not to realist the laws, but simply to protect their constitutional rights_ The de fendants are here to meet the District Attorney on any ground whatsoever. Mr. Coffey said he insisted on holding the ground that a case of conspiracy had been made out. He had no idea on what ground they founded their apprehensions of the future. Mr. Jones—They fear that the day may come in which they may no longer assemble to express their opinions in a peaceable manner, and that the right of suffrage may be denied them or in terfered with. Hr. Coffey—Do you mean to say that peo ple in Berke county are apprehensive that the right of suffrage will be taken away from them ? Mfr. Jones did not vouch for what men said. Their apprehension was they might not be al lowed to vote, or that such power might be ex erted as would prevent them from voting as they wished. Such had already, many of them thought and said, been the case in New Hamp shire, Connecticut and Delaware, and their turn might come next. Jacob Werner, sworn—Lives in Marion town ship, Barks county; knows something about the society ; knows Huber ; knows he has been hold ing meetings; knows Illig ; do not know Muth art or Seidel; know Oxenrelder ; do not know of their belonging to the society; I was at a meet ing and paid a dollar, at a public meeting at 11. Oxenreider's ; some time in April I was at two meetings; I do not drink; I was sworn in; oth ers were; I know the oath; it was something about the emancipation proclamation, the con , fiscation law, and something about the conscrip tion; it contained nothing more; I do . not re member all the bigot;; one was pointing the index finger down, another was holding the finger to the eye, another a grip of the hand ; Huber in structed me in the signs; one password was H. C., and R. D. was the other; do not know what 11. C. meant ; R. D. meant Richmond ; they were standing while taking the oath, holding the right band up; nothing was said about resisting the emancipation; do not think anything wan said about confiscation or conscription ; nothing was said about the way of resistance; do not remem ber that anything further was said ; he said some thing about the South; do not remember what; I have a poor memory. I ant forgetful. In the public meeting, he said that it was in support of the Union and Constitution. Not much was dons in the private meeting; we were there an hour and a half; the object of the Society was to set tle the Wert I =mot remember exactly what Huber said; he explained the meaning of H. C. and R. D ; I do not remember how he said that they were known by soldiers in the different armies; do not remember that he mentioned the number of members; he said their guns were to be loaded with salt to meet the enrollees. Be said it jokingly. Cron examined—The members assented to the oath administered by Huber, by holding up the right bands. I did not and told them next day that I was not a member, and did not consider myself so; I understood that the opposition to the confiscation, emancipation or conscription acts was in opinion merely. To Arr. O'Neill—l do not remember swearing to support the Constitution or the Vain; do not remember the questions being put, though such may have been the case. To Hr. Coffey—l understood the draft was to be opposed by members not going. To Mr. Joneo--1 do not understand their mean ing; they said they would not give a man or a dollar; it was understood that they would dgbt before they would go; Huber did not say so, but such was my inference. To lifr.,o'Neilt—lconstrued it so because they said they would not go ; do not remember it be , ing brought into court; am a farmer; was School- master at one time. To Mr. Coffey—Do not know of any threats having been made against witnesses who have been subpoenaed here_ The Commissioner, after some bitter argument, then discharged Messrs. Reed, hluthart and Sei del. Messrs. Filbert and Oxenreider, who had at tended the meeting, were held in $l,OOO bail. Dr. Illig, having acted as Secretary, was held in $1,500, and Huber in $3,000 bail, to answer at Court. FROM .

THE SIEGE OF VICKSBURG. Cheering News from General Grant. The Surrender of the City Demanded REPLY OF GENERAL PEMBERTON. Advices have been received by the Government from Vicksburg up Lo Sunday night, May 31. They are of nil encouraging character, but no specific intelligence in communicated. The Rcbel report that Grant Iraq sent his whole army to the Big Black, and the unofficial Union report that he had sent thither one corps, are incorrect. Our troops are in good health and spirits. We are assured upon the highest authority that since the 22d no assault has been made upon the Rebel works ; that since the 25th, up to the 31st, no fighting whatever had taken place ; and that the Union loss in the 14SElatlitS of the 21at and 224 has been greatly exaggerated. A telegram in the Richmond papers of June 8, dated Jackson, June 1, says that Grant had de manded from Pemberton the surrender of Violas. burg, which was refused. Grant had then given him three days' time to eonsider. The Government has official information of the close investment of Port Hudson by Gen. Banks, and the Richmond papers of June 8 assert that at the latest dates the situation there was un °hanged. We are permitted to publish the following ex tract from a private letter from an officer of Ad miral Porter's squadron, dated near Vicksburg, May 26 : "We are meeting with successes on every side, and before long the entire river will be open. To-night we had a dispatch from Gen. Grant, staling that he was gaining ground and advanc ing slowly but surely on the town. We have kept our mortars playing on the town for the last three days and nights without cessation, and have destroyed a great many buildings, beside two batteries. Deserters and paroled prisoners report to-night that the city cannot hold out much longer. They are getting very short of provisioni and have already Come down La half rations. They have no way of getting any more supplies. We all feel very confident here of the fall of Vicksburg in a very short space of time." DESTRUCT/ON OF A UNION GUNBOAT. The Union gunboat Cincinnati has been sunk by the rebel batteries of Vicksburg, and twenty of her crew killed and wounded. The rebels have been forced to parole some of their prison era, on account of the low elate of their supplies, THE EXPEDITION TO YAZOO CITY. THE NAVY-YARD, MACHINE SHOP, &C., DE MOLIEREDTRREE REBEL RAMS BURN. KO-42,090,000 OF REBEL PROPERTY DESTROYED WASHINGTON, May 31.—The following tele graphic dispatch was received at the Navy De partment to-day: FLAG SHIP BLACK HAWK, 1 . Mississippi Squadron, near Vicksburg, via Cairo, May SO, 1863: To the Hon. Gideon Welles, Secretary of Me Hen : Ste! I have the honor to inform you that the expedition I sent up the Yazoo under command of Lieutenant Commander Walker, after taking possession of the forts at Haines' Bluff, was per fectly successful. Three powerful steam rams were destroyed at Yazoo City. One was a monster, 810 feet long and 90 feet beam, to be covered with four-inch iron plates. A fine navy-yard, with machine shops of all kinds, saw mills, blacksmith shops, &c., were burned up. The property destroyed and captured a*noueted to ever *2,000,000. Had the monster iron ram been finished she would have given us some trouble. One battery was destroyed at Drury's Bluff. Our loss on the expedition was 1 killed and 7 wounded. DAVID D.
