.,;, The .KIssANE, FORGERY CAsE,--The
Cincinnati papers report the testimony
in full The Commercial gives an &C.
count of an affecting scene during the
trial. Honl w. F. JOHNSON, formerly
State Senator. and warm friend o
aKissane, called on Mr.. Kissane and told
him that he was able to testify as to his
Whereabouts on the 14th of December
last, and correct mistake made BY
some of the witnesses for the prosecu-
tion. He was accordingly called by the
defence: Ia-n5g . slEs0
After he had testified to the wherea-
bouts of Mre eKissane on the 14th of De-
cember, and the business transactions be
had with him that day, Mr.. Pruden pro-
ceeded to cross-examine him, and asked
if he knew Mr.. Kissane's handwriting
He replied, with smile, eyes, as well
as know my own. Mr.. Pruden then
handed him check drawn by Kissane,
and the forged check, and inquired
whether he could detect any similarity in
the handwriting that filed them mp
Mr. johnson took the papers and closely
examined them. As he did SO, an eS-
precision of terror came upon his counte-
nance; and with convulsive movement
-Aethfew the papers upon the table, cry
ing in a tone of horror, s1That check is
Kissane's hand writingl'' He then stag
gered to his chair, exclaiming, in tone
that sent q shudderi to every heart
"GREAT GoDf' 80
The effect Of this tragic scene was
stunning. Judge and jury, lawyersand
spectators, were alike appalled, After q
msment of s'breathless excitement and
suspense, the Court took recess. This
movement seemed involuntary, for calm
consideration could not be given to any
subject, while dismay was upon the fea-
tures Of every man. Mr.. johnson was
ghastly pale and as he slowly recover
ed, an expression Of intense pain settled
upon his countenance, and he seemed
suddenly to have grown old. No scene
that the pen of the novelist or the dra
uaatst ever drew, could equal the terrif
&C dramatic grandeur and powerof tht
solemn reality of this occurrence.
