THE PEOPLE vs.. GEORGE w. PECK.

The trial of this case commenced on Tuesday

full report, made by the editor Of this paper, viii
be found in this days Republican. This report
10 impartial, and from, its various features OF
testimony, arguments, and charge, the reader
may make up his own mind as to the facts
In empanneling the jury, the defence had
magnificent advantage, it being political case
Those among the jurymen who were Republicans
answered promptly that they had formed or ex-
pressed opinions about the case, while the Loco
focos who were called, to man, persisted that
they had not, while their neighbors stood ready
TO swear that in many cases, they had been pub
IcIy and repeatedly heard to declare such opn-
ions. Thus it vas that the jury was composed
of nine Loeotocos and three Republicans, OF
whom some Of the forrne- unfit TO sit upon
any Jury FROM partzan malice and bitterness,
while others had better been off for other rea-
sons, in case involving discrimination, close at
tentiou and intelligence. With this exception
the trial was fairly conducted on both sides, with
the most remarkable ability, so far a. counsel
we're concerned, and the utmost fairness and I'M
partiaty On the part Of the Judge whose charge

Calvin McCrsery.
The Attorney General then opened the case by
stating the formal cause of action.
The action, he said, WAS brought to recover
&AsO, unlawfully received from the Treasury OF
the State. Mr.. Peck, the defendant, being the
contractor for the printing and binding of the
State, and a. such contractor, he bound 4,5oO
copies Of the Session Law Of 1853, for which he
received the contract price, 10 cents per copy on
May 18th, 1888, amounting to s450, and the
next day, signeda receip. for the Auditors war
rant on the Treasurer for that amount
Three months afterwards, on the 18th day OF
August, Mr.. Peck presented claim for 1850 for
binding session laws of 1883, being identical
with the claim which was allowed in Nav 18TH
Both warrants were issued, both we're paid at the
Treasury. and both warrants were receipted for
by Nr. Peck. 1t was, in short, double pav-pay
twice over. Having had the money twice, the
State has right to recover.
Mr.. Howard offered in evidence Mr. Peck's
first account Of $45O, for binding, presented to
the Board Of State Auditors, May 18th, 1853
Hand writing admitted, body and signature
also, his receipt for Auditors warrant for s450,
dated Nay 18th.

something cannot be done for the relief of the Ia~

with propriety, tor the founder of her colony was
one Of the few who ever understood the nature Of
the red men and treated them with humanity -
An american Indian Association" has been 70,
Gently formed in New York, the OF ject Of which is
TO secure the recognition oftheir rights men; to
punish wrongs upon their persons and property +;
to protect their domains from the aggressous CT
the whites; to keep out the whiskey dealers, &c.
&c. Whether the project is practicable or not
remains to be seen, but it is pleasing to see the
fashionable philanthropy of the times occasionally
changing Its black dress for red oue Perhaps
It may ultimately array itself in white
