Howe then asked the indulgence of the court and re- 9uested an adjournment. The basis of his applica- ton was two telogrnms, the contents Of which were not publicly divulged. lie sald the messenger had been sent to Lawrence Mass, in order to bring OH the former witness Morey. Mr.. Bliss objected, saying that II would leave the defense with the privilege of putting In fresh test mony after the prosecution had finished and that his witnesses were on their way here to rebut Morey's testimony. Mr.. Howe was allowed half an hour to prepare an affidavit to support the con- tents of the kilograms. Daniel \.

George c. Gorham, in one of his Washington letters, figures as follows: Pennsylvania has given her IS votes to Grant. On the 25th instant New York will instruct 10 delegates, headed BY Roscoe CoAkling. to vote for Grant. Illinois will instruct her ~ the same way. Under such q lead the candidacy of Grant will be irresistible. The South cannot be stolen by q few oficeholders under an Admins tration. famous only for betrayal Of South ern Republicans. Two thirds Of its 274 delegates will support Grant. This will end Sherman's candidacy. and Ohio, with her A delegates, will be for Grant. Wis consin, Michigan, Minnesota, Indiana, Kansas and Nebraska will follow. Massa- chusetts, Connecticut, Vermont and Rhode Island are showing more and more ten dency towards Grant. The prospect now is that long before the National Convention assemblies delegates enough will have de- clared themselves, or been instructed. to make the nomination Of the ex-President an accomplished fact.

A negro preacher was lately fined $50 in Detroit, Michigan and in default Of bsil. was imprisoned go days, the penalty awarded by law for negro preach. ing in that State The Free PresS say. the authOri- ties are determined to prosecute every violation Of this Iaw.-Erchan0e. From the above it appears that the oppo. nents u free speech are not all in the South Had such proceeding taken place on the sunny side Of Mason & Dixon's line, it would have been attributed to the influence Of the "pecular institutions" and every Black Re- publican paper would have denounced it as outrageous and brutal but coming from Mich. igan, q thoroughly Black Republican State, no notice is taken of it. Perhaps the Michi- gan Republicans are becoming disguised with their negro allies. and fear that if they allow them to preach they may claim the right to speak at their political meetings. The Detroit Republicansare notorious for their love for the negro. Frequent instances of their mixing promiscuously and lntermarrying with them, have been noticed in the public journals. 1t may be that the experiment has not resulted MS happily as was anticipated, and that the Republicans, perceiving the degradation they have brought upon themselves by too free intercourse with the negroes, have determined to show their detestation of it by prosecuting their late allies. 1t is pretty family muss, with which Democrats have no disposition to interfere.
