ARIZONA DIAMOND FIELD-A sudden col
lapse has overtaken one Of the great diamond
mining schemes. "The San Francisco and
New York Commercial aud Mining Com
pany was the first regularly organized asso.
citation which prosecuted search for gems.
1t was made up of capitalists who went into
the business as legitimate undertaking. Their
surveying party was heaped by geologist of
skill and integrity, and had in IL several sub
slantial, practical citizens. The report of this
party, which was to settle oil doubts, has been
received; it Is dreadful document, for it dis.
pcls the whole gem story iuto thin air There
are no diamonds In the district except such
rough gems as have been put there by the trick
st"rs who lured on the expedition. These have
been placed in creVices of the rocks and in the
surface soil; and that is all In the gold-min-
ing regions of the Pacific they call this sailing
claim !" in law 1t might be called conspira-
ey 10 defraud. This accounts for the demad
jn London for rough diamonds, and will prob
ably snuff out all the rest of the schemes for
finding precious stones IN Arizona and Colo.

LRRFrnsnH. O.. Dec. 2. 1870.

I'd. Tete0roph-Court met this morn.
ing pursuant TO adjournment. Nothing,
however, will bc done with the Housed
trial to-day, because OF the illness of Mr..
Hitchcock, Que Of the jurors. The trip
TO view the premises where the murder
was committed, was trying and severe
one. The evidence in chief on the part
of the State has. nearly all gone TO the
jury. That part OF the testimony relat-
ing to the mysterious disappearance and
death OF Mr.. Smith is all circumstantial.
The Medical testimony, as far rs given,
singularly favored the Defendant; SO
much 80 that IL substantially corroborat.
cd his confession. Should not the
sick juror recover soon it will work a
continuance of the case until the next
term,o new trial this term. ITouseTs ap.
pearance indicates anxiety aud WEAKNESS
at the consequences and length Of his
trial. He is occasionally completely
overcome, and gives vent to his sufferings
in Tears His faithful brother is always
at his side, giving him such support as
only brother can give. Ills only re-
naming sister is also in court his other
sister having died in a fit the morning
the trial began, caused by excitement.
Anadiah Miicham's trial for Grand Lar
ceny, has been assigned for next Friday,
and Rosa Silvia's trial Ior next Monday.
The case of Sylvester Brown has been
continued until next term, on motion of
Sherman and Woodbury.. Ills counsel
also gave notice that probably change
of Venue to Lake County would he
asked.
Dec. 4th.- But little interest was
manifested to-day, until the prisoner was
called to the stand, when, amid breath
every word AS it fell from his lips. For
four long hours, with its loathsone,
sickening detail of intimacies between
the lH5sotcr and Mrs. Smith, the anxious
throng in the courtroom waited with
deep interest. The Prisoner was very
careful i" giving his testimony. He
seemed to weigh every word AS if his
dite depended upou it. AT times he ap-
peared to sa9er, as the counsel led him
from instance to instance 10 the commits
sion of the great crime He bure with
patience his seal ching cross examination
by Mr. NOrthway, and in. spite of cum
ming counsel maintained himself siugu-
larly well.
Dec. sth.-To-day, at 10 o'clock A. NJ,
the bubble Of Testimony bursted, aud the
counsel proceeded to argue the case to
the Jury. Prosecuting Attorney Wade
opened the case on the part OF the State
in "a very able and candid argument,
Mr.. Burrows of Painesvillc, occupying
the remainder Of the day on the part OF
the defense, ia feeling and impressive
which adds to his already great
ability as a lawyer Tomorrow Mcssrs,
Sherman & Northway will argue, when
the case will go, with the charge of the
court, to the jury. All are excited with
interest aud expectation over what they
expect to hear tomorrow from the gifted
Sherman and the talented Northway.
