Babc0ck's Trial.

ST. LOUIS, Feb. 16.-J.J. Brooks testified
that he had had doubts of Hoag's integrity,
by reason of the reports which came to him
while at New Orleans. Hoag failed to meet
him at the appointed time, and did not reach
New Orleans till two days after he (the wit
ness) had reached the distilleries there.
There were evidences at New Orleans that
the news Of the visit had been received in
advance. Several persons at Washing ton
other than Commits sioner Douglas, knew
that he and Hoag were going to New Or
leans.
Col. Dyer then offered some kilograms in
cypher, which the defense claimed were
dispatches between counsel and
client. After examination, the Court ruled
them out The. dispatches known as /" Ave-
~ dispatches" were admitted as evidence.
ST.. LOUIS, Feb. 16.-The ex-Attorney-
General opened the defense for Babcock.;
