JudHe BarAurd's Trial.
SARATOGA, July 31.-In the Barnard case,
Barnard of the Registers of voters, arrested
for violating the election laws.
Judge Noah Davis testified in the Barnard
impeachment case to-day as follows:
Just after the proceedings in the Erie con-
tempt case, remarked to Judge Barnard that
they were not exactly proper and he said he
never had any difficulty in getting out of tight
places. Barnard added that once when a fell
low WAS convicted before me of larceny, and he
was asked what he had to say why sentence
piled that he ought not to be sentenced by that
court. Barnard asked him why and he said be-
cause every dollar he had stolen went for the
support of his Barnard 81 mistress.
Barnard asked him where the woman was
and he replied that she was in court and point
ed her out.
Barnard called the woman up and put her
under oath, and she denied everything the fell
low said. Barnard said he gave the fellow all
the sentence the law allowed; but, said Bar
nard, the joke of the thing was that what he
said was true, and L had slept with the woman
one night in everyweek or two.
In the debate it was decided that the evidence
on the 31st article sho uld be received. Evil
dence on the 38th article, charging Barnard
with conducting himself in such manner as
is destroy confidence, was decided as unneces
sary. The case for the defence will be opened
ta-mOrrow.
