from all sdes crowds hurryng to the City Hall
The excitement was intense as it was instantaneous
AsMr Sickles stepped down the stone stairs of the

cheered, and loud calls were made upon him for a
speech.
With considerable exerton for he was fast becoming
faint he was got into one of the carriages
In waiting In the same carriage were Messrs. Ora

Sickles wished to retire TO rest undurbed, and that
he was sure this appeal would be respected
Messrs Graham and Thomas Francis Meagher

real sentiments One Of them, Mr.. McDcrnott, said,
want you Sir TO tell the people of New-York that
The citizens of Washington not behind those ot
any other part of the country in devotion 10 the
family altar" And yet the Juror was spoken of all
through the trial as one who would probably dissent
from tie rest.
Another of the jurors, young man named Knight
brought with him his fiddle with which he had been
in the habit of solacing himself and fellows during
the long evenings of their secuson, and played sew
eral airs He too had been regarded with suspicion
BECAUSE of certain KnowNothing antecedents
"But," says Mr. Brady, If we had known that he
"played the fiddle, we might have made our minds
"easy, for no fiddler was ever known TO find con-
EVICTION of murder
The foreman Mr. Arnold, said that his only fear
had been that his health might not last him through
the trial and that he hoped that his latest postery
wonld honor his memory from his having served on
this Jury. In fact the sentiments of the Jury ind
yiduay expressed in this unrestrained conversation
