STONES TRIAL. FOR LIBEL-CoNDuCT OF HIS CouN.
Stone, in opening his defence yesterday at his trial
now pending before the Court of Oyer and Termi-
ner stated nsinuated, that the two Judges of that
tribunal inflicted fine upon of only $780, for
the purpose of procuring the silence of the Herald
with respect 10 certain contracts entered into by
some firm called Bunting Il Co., and also because
the Herald leaned towards those Judges in their CT
vii and political relations
"a a.
| an outrageous falsehood, from beginning to end
The Herald, thanks to God and TO the American
people, is placed beyond the reach of purchase by
any man, party, Tiq'", OF Court in the earth or un-
derthe earth We never knew, spoke, or saw AL
derman Lee, till after that trial and judgment had
terminated! We never heard of the firm of Bunting
X Co. We have not spoken TO Alderman Purdy
for more than year past. The only Judge on the
bench on that occasion, that we had any intercourse
with, was Judge Kent himself-and that was only in
the way OF business. 1t Is true that have in our
possession, full history of the private and public
opinions of Judge Kent during the tendency of that
case which it may be necessary to give one of these
days. We have also ready for publication very
full memoir or history of the whole of that persecu-
ton, from the original movement of Judge Lynch,
and of the parties and men who instigated it, and
al the proper time we shall give it to the world.
Once for all, therefore, if David Graham, or Hiram
Ketchum, or any other lawyer, consider it neces-
sary to attack our character, to advance gross
and audacous fasehoods for the purpose of SCREEN
ing their client, we shall give them an orportu-
nifty of proving their assertions if they dare to come
forth as men of character and legal responsibility
They need not imagine that they shall be permit

point of moral character, we can compare any day

The spirit and temper OF the defence set up by
Stone is even more audacoue, and more destruc-
