WASHINGTON, July7, lS45.
Trial of McN,dty-New Democratic Pape-Fhnds


furnished IN Nesr York.


The Criminal Court, before which it was appoint
ed this day that J. G. McNulty late Clerk OF tho
House Of Representatives, should be brought for
trial. upon sundry indictments for embezzement of
the public moneys, met this morning at 10 o'clock,
with view of taking up the cause After waiting
for two hours the court was called to order, and
Judge Dunlop took his seat


Mr.. Hoban then announced, that since the last
meeting of the court, he had been appointed u s.
District Attorney for the District of Coumbia-had
accepted the office-had taken the requisite oath
before Judge Cranch, and that it was on record.
this case, Mr.. II said he was thus placed in diff
cult attitude, which he not exactly advised
to what course, under all the circumstances, he
should pursue. He would ask the opinion of the
Court. AS to undertaking, in his official capacity
as District Attorney, the prosecution of this cause
that was entirely out of the question. Altogether,
he was at loss what should be the plan Of OPP
erations under the circumstances.


Judge Dunlop, for the purpose of consultation
upon the matter with other dignitaries OF the law,
higher in authority than himself, said, that after
call of the roll of the witnesses on the part Of the
United States, the court would be adjourned.
The U. S. witnesses were called ever. and among
them were B. B. French, G. Fl. r. U. S., and seve
raj Of his assistants; Henry 0. Hungerford and VIM
TsyOr Of the committee M,,ccoS ef Accounts Ley D.
sury Department, Lund Washington, Jr, late repor-
ter for the Globe Charles Suydam, merchant, New
York !. E. B, Burke, Charles Drummond, and sew
| era others


And the Court was adjourned till tomorrow at 10
o'clock.


| Mr.. Fendall, late District Attorney, and as such
the prosecutor in this case, in behalf of the United
States, having been superseded by Mr.. Hoban in his
office, is, of course, cut off from the prosecution,
unless with special authority from the President to
act as District Attorney in the premises, n0twith-
standing the appointment of Mr.. Hoban. Some
such arrangement will most likely be made.
