JAW. 3l.-People had acquired such habit
of late, Of throngng rrnund the Hall, that they
supposed il necessary to keep it up, and the
Court room this inorning was crowded 10 over
flowing.
Mr.. MoRRILL, one Of the counsel for John g.
Colt, stated that himself and associates were pre-
pairing bill Of exceptions, a'so afhdavits in rela
tion to the Jury, and requested that further pro
ceedings In the case should be postponed 10 hex'
term, which would be in March.
Judge KENT, after consulting with his associates
stated that the Counsel should have afortnight al
lowed them, which was ordered.
Mr.. MORRILL, also requested that the trial OF
Adams, indicted for the murder Of his vile, might
be postponed to next term.
Judge KENT remarked that he had received a
letter from Mr. Dewitt, who had been assigned as
counsel for Adams, and was at present In Albany,
stating that he would probably be ready on the Sih
February.
Mr.. WHIriSs was not opposed to the case lying
over till next term, il good cause could be shown
From an examination Of the ,pers that had come
into his hands, he supposed the murder to have
been ceol deliberate one.
Mr.. morrill, thought the counsel would be UNI
able to get ready this term, and the trial was order
cd to be postponed.
Judge KESr then enquired Of the District At.
torney when the OF Tappan, (also indicted for
the murder OF his wife, would be ready.
The counsel for Tappan stated that some Of the
witnesses were in the interior part OF the state,
was necessary tney Piceo"s' A.o
did not suppose it possible they could be ready this
term.
The District Attorney remarked. that as the case
Of Adams was to lie over, he had no objections to
this taking similar course. He was DESTROYS oil
taking some testimony, de bens esse and asked leave
to that effect, which was granted and the trial was
postponed.
The old panel of jurors were then discharged,
with the thanks of the Court, and the new panel
directed to remain.
Mr.. MORRILL, asked to have the libel case Of
James Gordon Bennett postponed to next term-he
feeling beat out and unable to try it-but the Dis
trict Attorney objected, and the was set down
for Monday next.
Judge KENT observed, that n special jury had
been summoned for the Circuit Court this morning
to try the Staten Island case of Wendell VS..
Moore. The trial would not come on for few
days and they were discharged until called upon,
with caution not to converse on the subject be-
