favorable to the negotiation, but owing to some cir
cumstauce winch transpirsd, the goods were not
delivered but the prisoner arrested for the forgery
HomBn arrested the prisoner, and found some pa
pers in q trank, which he had left at the Atlantic
Hotel. At the bare mention Of the word "papeT,"
the prisoners counsel discovered striking analogy
between these papers and the " Glcntworh papers,"
and wasted an immense deal Of learned indignation
on the right Of search. tat
The Recorder took the opinion Of his learned
associates on the Bench, and they decided the pa
psrs were evidence no matter how obtained.
The Recorder said, has own opinion was, that the
papers were testimony, because legally obtained.
The papers were then produced but like their
cele brated prototype, found to be mere trash not
worth the talk they had created. srs l,l -,
The prisoners Counsel set up that his client re-
ceived the note in Albany, OF some person for whom
he had done some business at Saratoga. No wit

jury found the prisoner guilty
The Court tret one more case and then dis
charged the jury until M enday, thus abandoning the
nuisance Of night sessions, to the great joy Of all
concerned, except the culprts who did not run
much risk of ever getting tried under it.
