WEDNESDAY MORNING, MAY 16, 1866. NUMBER 234. OFFICIAL JOURNAL -or TI-IE STATE OF LOUISIANA. WEDNESDAY MORNING, MAY 16, i8il. The Murder of Capt, J, Fred, Grubei. T1I1 TR IA iL. The trial of Michael McLaughlin,David D.Hennes sey, Richard Murphy and Stephen O'Donnell, in ficted for the nlurder of the late Captain John Frederick Gruber, in Sam's saloon on St. Charles street, on the night of the 9th of March last, was commenced in the First District Court yesterday, Judge Abell presiding, at a few minutes before 11 o'clock. The court room was densely crowded with spec tators, and the purlieus were filled with knots of citizens. Every step in the proceedings was watched with fixed attention, and a very unusual public interest was shown in the case. The prisoners were all present and exhibited an anxiety to be expected from men in theirsituation. From 11 o'clock to 1 was occupied inimpannelling a jury, without completing it. During that time the accused were required to stand, in exercising their right of challenge, but the fatigue incident to suchprotracted constraint seemed to be unfelt, and the only emotion exhibited was one of deep concern as the qualifications of the jurors were scanned and passed upon. For the State, Attorney General Herron was present, assisted by District Attorney Luzenburg. For the defense, General Humphrey Marshall, Judge Dooley and Messrs. A. P. Field, - Lam bert and H. C. Castellanos appeared. Besides the prisoners at the bar, Thomas Mc Cauliff, alias Scott, alias Melae, and Patrice Me ley, alias Scott, were inciuded in the indictment as parties to the murder, but not having been arrest ed, were not present. As we have already stated, the impanneling of the jury commenced at 11 o'clock, and proceeded as follows: Charles Arroyo, challenged by Murphy peremp. torily. Edward Hayden, challenged by the State pe remptorily. F. X. Martin, accepted and sworn. Louis Prados, challenged by McLaughlin peremp torily. Felix Arroyo, challenged by O'Donnell peremp. torily. Oscar Blasco, challenged by Hennessey, pe remptorily. Peter Dorwichk, challenged by Murphy peremp torily. Aristide Auburtin, challenged by McLaughlin peremptorily. Joseph Berberick, challenged by O'Donnell pe remptorily. Alphonse Morel, accepted and sworn. P. A. Lambert, Jr., accepted and sworn. J. E. Freche was opposed to capital punishment. However clear the evidence might be, he could not render a verdict of death. Set aside for cause. Antoine Desgeorges, challenged peremptorily by Hennessey. George Seibert, challenged peremptorily by Murphy. John Conway, challenged peremptorily by O'Donnell. Thomas Doherty, challenged peremptorily by the State. J. T. Desgrais had formed and expressed asn opinion in the case, such an opinion as he did not think could be changed, and he was set aside. Louis Burthe, challenged peremptorily by Mc Laughln. Theodore Bachemin, jr., was conscientiously op posed to capital punishment, and was set aside. E. P. Delavallade was peremptorily challenged by O'Donnell. lfenry Weber having been peremptorily chal lenged by O'Donnell, the attorney general in quired how many peremptory challenges had been exercised by the prisoners? The sherinf answered that Mr. Weber would make thirteen. The attorney general raised the point that the law limited the accused to twelve peremptory challenges. After a brief argument the court ruled that each of the prisoners was entitled to twelve challenges, without cause. Mr. Weber was therefore set asilde. W. D. Duke, accepted and sworn. Louis Tureaud, peremptorily challenged by Murphy. .lames P. Warner, peremptorily challenged by McLaughlin. Edwin Marks, peremptorily challenged by O'Don nell. lion. J. T. 1lanlon had formed and expressed a decided opinion in relation to the case, and was set oside. Prosper Gauel, peremptorily challenged by Heu nessey. S. Hopkins, Jr., peremptorily challenged by lMurphy. T. F. Patton, peremptorily challenged by 3[e Laughlin. L. C. Richards, accepted and sworn. S. H. Bard, accepted and sworn. Stodart HPlwell, accepted and sworn. - Tillottson, set aside on motion of counsel for defense, because his name in full was not given on the list of jurors furnished the prisoners. John McCloeghlin, challenged peremptorily by the State. Wm. A. Moulton, challenged peremptorily by the State. Wm. McLean, accepted and sworn. C. L. Hess, set aside, ds the name on the list furnished the prisoners was not correct, his true name being J. L. Hess. B. Mlouchon. accepted and sworn. Ernest Nicaud, peremptorily challenged by O'Donnell. James Brady, having formed and expressed an opinion in the case, was set aside. Arthur Lambert, peremptorily challenged by Hennessey. John Crusius, peremptorily challenged by Mur phy. J. A. Martin, having been challenged by the State, General Marshall objected, contending that under the law the State was entitled to but six peremptory challenges, and that number was already exhausted. The attorney general maintained that he was entitled to that number for each of the prisoners. Such .cas the law, and it was consistent with rea son. the object of the law was to prevent par tialities t`om entering tihe jury box. Of course, the greater' the number of accused the greater the liability to prejudice against or partiality for them. Had the plis oners been confined to twelve chal lenges, naquea tionably the State should be re stricted to six ; but since each of the accused was allowed to twelve, the privilege of the prosecution should be correspoaadinely increased. Mr. Field and Generail Marshall replied, contend ing for the original proUposition that the law abse lutely ilimited the State tc- ix, whrtever the naim ber of th, arcc rsed, and ti'.,t the claim of the ut trney gnenrl was i:icolsiteat is itil the the pr-y : iuly trial, fur unlder the 'll I io thc atll The court decided in favor of the prosecution, ruling that the State was entitled to six peremptory challenges against each prisoner. Mr. Martin was therefore set aside. Counsel for defense notified the court that ex ception would be taken to this ruling. SAdam Joachim, peremptorily challenged by McLaughlin. Louis Guirand, peremptorily challenged by O'Donnell. A. Gubert, accepted and sworn. O. L. Kernion, accepted and sworn. Ernest Malos was opposed to capital punishment and was set aside. Camille St. Amant, peremptorily challenged by Hennessey. J. B. Dolhonde, peremptorily challenged by Murphy. Oscar Stone, peremptorily challenged by Mc Laughlin. John P. Collins, peremptorily challenged by O'Donnell. E. R. Pitcher, peremptorily challenged by Hen nessey. John Glynn, peremptorily challenged by the State. Robert Campbell, peremptorily challenged by the State. A. P. echngider, peremptorily challenged by Murphy. This exhausted the panel and the jury was in complete, but eleven members being sworn. The court ordered talismento be summoned and ad journed to 4 o'clock in the afternoon, instructing the jurors impannelled that they were to remain in the custody of the sheriff and should not allow any one to converse with them on the subject of the case about to be tried. The court at the expiration of the recess resumed its sitting, and proceeded with the impanneling of the jury. The twelfth juror was obtained from the talismen after two peremptory challenges by the prisoners, by the acceptance of Ernest Gautier and the jury was complete as follows : F. X. Martin, Alphonse Morel, P. A. Lambert, Jr., W. D. Duke, L. C. Richards, S. H. Bird, Stodart Howell, William McLean, B. Monchon, A. Gabert, O. L. Kernion and Ernest Gautier. The indictment having been read by the attor ney general, upon his suggestion it was agreed that, as it would be impossible to get through 4~.th the case, during the night, an adjournment should be had at 8 o'clock, land the case should be resumed this morning. The witnesses were then ordered to be separated and the evidence commenced. TESTIMONY FOR THE PROSECUTION. Dr. Yeiser scorn--As coroner, he held the in. quest over the body of the deceased and proved the copus delictli. The wound, an incised wound on the right side of the lower abdomen, three quarters of an inch to one inch in width and pene. trating to the spinal column, cutting the ena caoa descendant, the largest vein in the body, was ne cessarily mortal. The wound was from three or four to aix inches in depth. ls. Blarnes sorta--As city physician, made the post mortem examination at the inquest. De scribed the wound as described by Dr. Yeiser. Upon opening the body, discovered that there had been a hemorrhage of at least three quarts. Death was caused by this enormous hemorrhage. He had no doubt on his mind that the wound was the cause of death. Dr,. Cioppinsarorn--Assistedat ose obilexami. nation ; also visited the deceased after he was wounded, as a physician: was called in on the night of the Oti of March, and saw then that de ceased was dying. He had a penetrating wound of the abdomen, and from the synmptems witness was satislied he was dying from internal hemor rhage. Witness saw there wasno hope of recovery, and administered nothing but opiates. Deceased was already in a collapsed condition. After wit ness had examined deceased, he asked if witness considered the wound mortal. He asked witness, seriously, to tell him his exact condition. Witness, as was hlia shabit when appealedl to by those he was attending, told deceased the whole truth told him there was not the slightest chance for recovery. This conversation tool place between 12 and 2 o'clock the night deceased was stabbed. ft"oss-c.caoeoed-al-Continued to see deceased from time to time until a few minutes before his death* He said no more to witness abont his case, after tie conversation related in the direct exam ination, except to answer such qoestions as witness put to him relative to his condition. lIe was wealk and could not converse asy length of time. )irect e.ramitiation rescumed. Did not think at any time his recovery was possible and never gave him any hopes. L'osse-eceaienalioeresuaeed--Dlr.

He was in possession of his fac:lties. it answoer to ute coarl-The manner of de ceased when witness apprised him that the wound was mortal beyond doubt, signified tlhat he was flly impressed with the hopelessness of his con dition. He closed his eyes and was silent. iUross-examined again-Deceased neverspoketo witness, nor in his presence of his resolution to be revenged, as soon as he recovered, on the parties who injured him. His mind wan very lucid, on Saturday the 10th, the day he died, and he answered all witness's questions correctly.

Yeiser and Choppinnand expressed the same opinion that it was necessarily mortal. Deceaseeddied at bot o'clock onaturday night, March 10th. Witness lhad nio positive conver sation with him ill regard to Ili condition. The following document was exhibited to the witness. 1, J. Fred.

He had identifid him bIeore the docrrnent was writtren, as well as after. The document was read to dlceatsed by Juidge Izard. This document was written between ! and 5 o'clock on the afternoon of Saturdaly, tsle lrth. (lIoss-exaniri,'d-Witndss visited deceased as a physician, three or four times on the loth, at 7, 10 and Il in the morning. The document was writ ten ulrn recolectio of rwhilat deceased hadil pre viously told witness. Wrote it, he believed, but was not positive, upon the suggeostion of Judge laz.rd, who was present; also Mr. Wolle, liather-ii raw of tie deceased. Witnesscould not now re peat the exact ordse of the declaration, but could state the substance from memory. [Col. Field Ihanded tihe document to tie judge, calling attention to the firm, bold hand in which Capt. Gruber signed it, and remarking that a man could not be very weak who wrote such m signa ture. The judge answered that he did not see what he had to do with the c.xamination of the signature.] Witness resuming his testimony: Judge liard, after reading the statement, swore deceased to it. Witness thought it contained all he had heard deceased say on the subject. Was entering the room when Hennessey was passing out after he had been brought afr deceased to see tim. De. ceased did not request witness to write tIhe state meat, but, upon its being suggested, aorented. It was after it was read to him by Judge lzard he suggested the interlineations of the words "et al." C'r'ss-examitlno ion reororetl.--Judge Izard sRIg gested that I should put tile mark ot deceased to the statement, but ire objected and insisted that be should write his own name, remarking "I am able to sign my own nname." He was perfectly conscious when he silgned it. Jut;slce Izard sworo --in the evening of tile lOth March last, I was called on by some gentleman to go and see Mr. Gruber. I went to his house. Be lore etuerinig his room 1 was met by two officers who had a youeg mans in charge, and who said hro name war Murphy. I went into Mlr. hruber's roomn rland spoke to hirm. I asked hibr if lie recognized roe ? I siartl: "'es, you rae the lyor." I .-aid s, I am Jt:,rtlct r lzar. ")ii, yeo," he said, " 1 re eo.,'; :,eyu."'

I stood beside Mr. Gruber and told him I y came to hear anything he had to say in reference to his having been wounded. I requested the doc tor to take down what Mr. Grubernad to say. Mr. Gruber went on then to make the statement con tained in the document in court. I read the state ment after it was written, and asked him if it was correct. Hesaid it was. in addition, Iasked him f i he would be able to recognize the parties who had wounded him? He mentioned the names of y Murphyand Hennessey. [The defense objected to this testimony as to eurphy and Hennessey as illegal, and after some discussion the attorney general consented to elicit the evidence he sought in another manner.] t Murphy was present when the paper was read. I had ordered the officers to bring him in. I recol lect that at the lim he phneslcan was present, and, I believe, MIr. W-f. They wel there be fore the docement was signed. Others, might have been there, but if there were I do not recol lect them. Mr. Gruber raised bhinself up to sign the paper,'and swore to it with his hand elevated. Mnrphy was brought directly before him. He was asked if he recognized Murphy. He answered: " I do--that is the man who stabbed me." I had nothing from him to signify that he was in a dying condition, but his physican, in the hea.ing of Grt ber, within a few feet of the bed, said, addressing me, that " Mr. lruber was very had and not to worry him," or words to that effect, and my infer-, once, from the manner in which the doctor spoke, was that he regarded him as in a dying condition. [The defense objected to the inferences of the witness being given as evidence.] (ross-exnaminir,dMr Gruber did not exnress to me or in my hearing a belief that he was going to die. No minister of the Gospel was there. He did not speak of his business affirs. The physi eian was a stranger to me, and f did not know his name. When rouber said lurply was the man " that's the man," he added, " take him away"- I don't think Murphy made any reply whatever ; he did not in the room, t am sure. I don't know the officers who had him in charge, and could not recognize them. I was at the honue but once--at six or half pent nix in the evening. When Murphy was brought before Mr. Gruber, he was most posi tive as to the identity of the prisoner. Mrsr. Gruber and a young lady were also in the room, I believe. Dr. C'oppin, reca, d Ly the prosecno;e--De ceased had but one wound. The attorney generalhere offered in evidence the declaration of the deceased, which had been identified by the witnesses. Mr. Castellanos and General Marshall ob jected. It was not, they argued, a dying d.elara tion. It had not the featores essential to consti tote it in law a dying declaration. It was merely an affidavit, obviously made for the purpose of procuring the arrest of the parties named. The paper contained nothing to show a consciousness thatdeath was impending, but on the contrary, contained in itself evidence that the deceased ex pected to survive, in the sentence, " Whom I could recognize when I on the witness etand." Filling the hiatus the sentence I would read, " Whom I could recognize Swhen I am on the witness stand." This showed that deceased expected to outlive the wound and give evidence against the parties. The testimony that he had been apprised his wound was mortal or dangerous, left a doubt as towhich word was used and the prisoners were entitled to the benefit of the doubt, tothe belief that the word dangerous was used. Considering his wound as only danger ones he was not in a condition to make a dying declaration. There was no proof establishing the consciousness of certain dissolution. Deceased had made no speech, no remark or suggestion to show certainly that he considered himself in ertreonis. Attorney General Herron replied. It was ab surd, he contended, to argue that putting the de claration of the deceased in writing, or his swear ing to it, changed its character or weakened its force. True, a dying declaration did not need to be in writing, nor sworn to, but its being in writing or its being sworn to-mere snpererogations--did not vitiate it. People generally were not informed, as gentlemen of the bar were, as to the technical form of a dying declaration, but because they had done unnecessary things, because they were igno rant of the forms of law, was no reason that what they had done should fall to the ground. As to the idea broached, that tihe intention .as only to make a sworn complaint, to procu: e the arrest of the prisoners, it was very clear that such could not have been the intention. for, if it was, a recorder, a magistrate to whom eriminmal jurisdiction was assigned, would have been sent for and not a civil magistrate, as Cudge Izard was. Again, in regard to the attempt to wrench from the statement evidence that the de ceased expected to recover and to prosecute his assailants, nothing could be more repugnant to reason. The misspelling of a word accident ally or from ignorance, was the basis of this argument. As interpreted by the defense, it was necessary to interpolate a word to make sense. It was necessary to say, "whom I could recognize when I am on the witness stand." The word " amn" had to be interpolated to sustain the reading of the defense. But how much better did it accord with all the circumstances, with all the facts of the case and with the grammatical construction of the sentence to take it that the word which appeared as " when" was a mis-spelling of " were ;" that the sentence was introduced to add force and selemnity to the averment, by saying, " whom I could recog nize were I on the witness stand." As interpreted by the defense, it was neither grammar nor sense without their interpolation. His interpretation re quired no interpolation, nothing more than the correction of a mis-spolline. What better proof could be adduced than had been to show this documenat was a dying declara tion? He had been wounded but a few hours be fore: he died a few thours after, and hoe hd been told by one physician that there was no hope of his recovery, and by another that his wound 0u' mortal or dangerous. The court was not conoined to his own declarations. Like any other fact, the fact of consciousness of imlpending dissolution could be proved in various ways. In the case Of the State vs. Richard Scott, 12th atnual, the supreme court ruled distinctly that the proof of such consciousness need not be shown by the de clarations of the person ir extrertis; that such proof was not necessary ; that the fact could be proved by other circumstances, and a communica tion by the plysician was specifically mentioned. And IGreenleaf on IEvidence, ol. 1, section 158, was to the sane effect, that consciousness of ap proaching death, might be proved in three ways: by the express declaration of the party ; by evi dent danger, and by the communication of the phy sician. The State had two of these elements in this case. Danger was evident, because the man died two or three hours after, and his physician had apprised him that his recovery was hopeless impossible. But counsel for defense would have it, because he was not blabbing about his coming death to all around him, and because he was not alarnming and saddening his wife and children, therefore he did not expect to die then ! Mr. Field closed the argument for the defense. The evidence, he insisted, should be clear that the party himself was convinced of his impending dis solution. To be told by his physician that his life was despaired of, was not sufficient. It should be shown that he believed his physician implicitly; that he had no doubt on the subject, and was with oat hope of his life being prolonged. He should be in expectation of immediate death, not in fear of a remote one. This evidence was wanting. He had not asked for the sacraments of his church, nor had he called about him his wife and children, to speak parting words to them. He had done o) said nothing to signify a conviction that lfe was in extrentls., If the paper was intended as a dying declaration, why introduce tie words ' witness stand" at all into it? The illferen:u vso that ihe esretehld or hoped to survive t'c voullnd d to aplear as a eitrnes.

Mr. Field concluded by quoting from Phillips on Evidence to show that before a dying declaration can be admitted in evidence, the court must be satisfled the party making it was conscious he was in clremia. The argument was closed at a few minutes be fore 8. The judge remarked that thequestion was a very important one, and as the hour agreed upon for adjournment had nearly arrived, he would re serve his decision until this morning and adjourn the court. And the court was accordingly adjourned, the shberif having been previously instructed to make the jury as comfortable as be could, during the night. otanl Jntelligence. ComarcrTION.-In our report of the decision of the Supreme Court, in the case of Schmidt vs. Barker, published yesterday, it is stated that " the decision of the lower court, which was in favor of defendant, was ordered to be reversed." This was an error, which the intelligent reader would perceive from the context. The decision reversed was in favor of plaintiff, and not defendant.

If the President would call iome every treasury agent that is disgracing the North and the goverament. ansd hnacmuity, and slienating the Soth, 1, for one, should be glad.
