The speech of JAMES VI. Smith. Jr., ESQ.
opening for the prosecution, was very strong and
forcible appeal in behalf justice and ;hs People.
That OF DUDLEY SsLDES, Esq, was clear CALI,
and powerful argument OF more than SIX hours in
behalf Of the prisoner al the bar, [; was exceed
insly ingenious-too much 50 we thoughtat times
for the accomplishment, of his purpose; but every
word of it was evidently dictated by profound
conviction OF his clients innocence His remarks
apon the course adopted BY The prosecution were
extremely bitter, and enforced with most effective
elo?aence. The District Attorney, we are sure,
will be no loss caustic and able in reply. The
charge OF Judge kEar viii probably be made this
afternoon. We doubt if the verdict will be rem
dcrcd before Monday. We do not think it will be
either Rlurder or excusable still less .jasthable,
homicide.
