Naw Yorr, April 13, 1870.
As the trial of McFarland progresses
the interest in it appears to progresaln

CourtroMn this morning were blocked
up with an immense crowd of expectant
spectators.
Upon the opening of.the Court Mr.
Gerry read a letter from fdra. Calhoun to
Mn.s McFarland, similar In character to
the epistles from the same lady read
yesterday.
The Recorder intimated that the coun
sel would do well to refrain from reading
letters merely relating to Mrs. Calhoun's
personal feelings and not directly bear
ing on the case.

of letters which the prisoner bad piun.

which the defence seemed to think sup.

testified the prisoner had been In the

that time McFarland was rational enough

McFarland frequently appealed to hea

manner increased to vehemence during
all the time he knew him.

pitreney of McFarland after the receipt
of the Intercepted letter, but.he seemed
to think his wife would return to him if
left to her own Impulses; considered the
prisoner wholly irrational. Crosaex

usually belongs to Insane persons; his
language, however, was coherent.
Previous to the Court adjourning,
Judge Davis said the counsel for the
prisoner bad, he presumed, unintention
ally done injustice to a party who was
entirely outside of the case. Yesterday

Counsel for the prisoner had #Ollll, doubt
about having the letter read In Court in
the presence of ladles, but their determi
nation to do Justice to their client caused
them to forego any consideration of dell.
cacy in relation to the matter.
Mr. (lorry said before taking a copy
of the letter he had sin:alum the letters
with three microscopes. and bed no doubt
their were as he read them.
The Recorder said the matter wee one
to be subjected to the test of common
sense, and not of microscopes. For his
own part, be agreed with Judge Davis.
but would lease the matter for the jury
to decide.
The Court then adjourned.
The letter from Mrs. Calhoun to day
are very long, and devoted to Mrs.
McFarland's Intention of going on the
stage. The following are extracts:

Fifteenth Amendment Celt bratton
. epceen of Gov.
=I
COLUMBUS, 'April 13.—The colored
people of this city miebrated the 'ratifi
cation of the Fifteenth Amendment to
day. A. proms:on, OM) mile In length,
paraded the streets In the afternoon and
made a fine appears:ice. In the evening
the large Opera Home was crowded with
people to witness the tableaus and hear
the speeches.
Governor Hates made the following
speech :
We celebrate to night the first triumph
of a righteous clump, after a loag, avant
ti and memorable struggle. The con.
dist which Mr. Seward pronounced
iesible" at lent Is ended. The
. _
WIZ
hovel, which was divided against Itself.
and which therefore, according to Mr.
Lincoln, could not-stand as It was, ift
divided no longer,
and we may now
rationally hope tha t under Providence it
:a destined to stand, long to stand, the
home of freedom and refuge of the op
prt seed of every race and, of every clime.
The great leading facts of the contest are
t ranee.. that I need not ettemptto
ount them. They belong to the history
of two famous wars, the war of the neve
Baton and the war of the rebellion, and
are part of the story of almost a hundred
years of civil strife. They began with
Bunker Hill and Yorktown, with the
declaration of independence and the
adoption of the Federal constitution;
they end with Fort Sumpter and the fall
of Richmond, well the emancipation
proclamation and the anti-slavery or
equal rights amendments to the Consti
tution of tat nation. These long and
anxious years were not years of no.
orogen, ceaseless warfare; there were
period. of lull, of truce, of compromise;
but every lull was short lived, every
truce was hollow and every compromise,
however pure the motives of Its authors,
proved deceitful and vain. There could
ue no lasting peace until the great wrong
was destroyed and impartial justice es
tellehed. The history of this period is
adorned with a long list of Illustrious
names, with the names of men who were
Indeed Solomona In council and Samp.
"boas in the field. At its beginning there
'were Washington, Franklin and Jeffer
son and their compeers. and In the last
I great crisis Providence was equal.
ly gracious and gave us such men
as Lincoln and Stanton and George
H. Thomas. All who here their
part in the great oordlict may now with
grateful hearts rejoice that it is forever
ended. The newly made citizens, who
seem to carry off the lion's share of the
fruits of the victory, it is specially fitting
and proper , that they shoutd assemble to
congratulate each other, and to be con
gratulated by all of us, that 'they now
enjoy for the drat time In full measure
the b:esiinge of freedom and manhood.
These also who have opposed many of
the late step. of the greet program, it is
a great eati.faction to know that
so large a number of them gracefully ac
quiesce in tne derision of the nation. The
war of races, which it was soil conlideet.
IV:predicted would follow the enfran
chisement of the colored people. where
was it in the elections In Ohio last weak?
Ins few localities the old prejudice and
fanaticism made, we may hope, their last
appearance. There wee barely enough
angry dissent to remind us of the barba
rism of slavery, which has passed away
forever. Generally throughout the State,
eepecially in the cities of Cincinnati,
Cleveland, Columba', Dayton and To
ledo, where the new element is large,
those who strove to avert the result
over which we rejoice, leaders as well as
followers, were eonspicuousin setting an
example of obedience to the law. Not
the lout among the canaes for congratu
lation td-night is the confidence we have
that the enfranchised people will prove
worthy of Amerfean citizenship. No
true patriot wishes to sea' them exhibit a
blind and unthinking attachment to
mere party, but spaced men wiah to sea
hem culitrate habits of industry and
thrift and to exhibit intellfgenee and
virtue; armlet every election to be earn
estly solicitous to array tbemseivis on the
side of law and order, liberty and pro
gress, education and religion. Let them
do this, and we may confidently expect
that in the judgment of history the 15:h
Amendment will ta k e rank with the
Declaration of Independence and , the
Emancipation Proclamation.
Speeches were ale* made by Ron. S.
Galloway, Rev. James Poindexter. and
several colored orators.

ST. Lows, April la.—The Mississippi
river is eight miles wide opposite Quincy,
Illinois. West Qaincey is entirely sub
merged, and many people have aban
doned their homes. The water is over
the Hannibal and St. Josephßallroad for
live miles, and should the river rise a
foot higher • the track between Quincy
and Palmyra, Mo , will be submerged,
and necessitate the transfer of passengers
from Quincy to Hannibal by steamer.
The river is still rising.
