with which ho had struggled through lifo, and
of the ill-fortune which had constantly pursued

A kew days inoe we oopled from our Colum
bus exchanges an account of a murder perpe
trated by an old woman named Miller, the
owner of an improper house. Her husband
and two daughters were arrested on the occa
sion, but wore Immediately discharged, it be
ing evident that the old woman was alone an
swerable for the crime. The matron of the
Friend-street Orphan Asylum hearing of the
painful oircumstanoe, and being informed,
moreover, of the disreputabla kind of life
whioh the two girls had been trained to, sent
for the girls and gave them shelter in the Asy
lum. On account, however, of the annoyance
given to that Institution by the frequent calls of
the rowdies to see the oldest girl, fourteen years
of age, she has been lent to a convent In this
oily, where, U is hoped, she will not only
"cease to do evil, but learn to do well."

REPORTED FOR THE DAILY PRESS.
REPORTED FOR THE DAILY PRESS. TRIAL OF DANIEL E. SICKLES.
CHARGED WITH THE
Murder of Philip Barton Key.
Washington, Saturday, April 9. The ease
for the defonse opens this morning. It is
expected that Mr. Graham will oooupy the
whole day in his opening address. His asso
ciates would prefer brevity in the opening, as
they wish to reserve their plan of operations
for the present, and to say nothing of Mr. Key
except what is Immediately oonneoted with the
transaction, and to make no attempt to account
for the disparity between the size of the bullets
extracted from the body, and the defense dony
that the Dorriugor pistol belonged to Mr.
Sickles.
As there has beon no attempt to trace it to
him by the prosecution, the defense will make
the most of this circumstance, and claim that
it belonged to Mr. Key, and perhaps that tho
first shot came from him. As to the two keys
found in the pocket of the deceased, the idea is
that they were those of the house in Fifteenth
street, and if so, that circumstance will be put
in evidence.
Two letters from Mr. Key to Mr. Slokles, one
indignantly denouncing the Insinuations mado
with respect to the familiarity with Mrs.
Sickles, and tho other accepting a subsequent
invitation to dinner, will be oflored in the evi
dence. If not admitted, the oounsol will make
use of them in tho argument for the jury.
The pressure for admission becomes groator
as the case progresses. Many persons are pres
ent from New York, among whom wo notice
John Kelly, Sheriff; Hon. John Cochrane, John
Clancy, County Clorkj Captain Dowling and
Owen W. Brennan.
Mr. Bagioli, the father of Mrs. Sicklos, has
returned to New York.
TheCourt oponed at a quarter-past ton o'clook.
After some dolay the prisoner was conduotod
into Court and placed in the dock, -vhero he
was engaged for some time in a .onference
with Messrs. Brady, Stanton and Kovordy
Johnson.
The jurors wore onllod and answorcd to their
namos.
Mr. Graham proceeded to addross tho jury
amid the solomn silonce and attention of the
whole Court.
Mr. Graham said, aftor an eloquent preface,
had Mr. Key observod tho solomn precept,
"remember tho Sabbath day to koop it holy,"
he might at this momont havo formed one of
the living; the injured father and husband rushed
on him in the moment of bis guilt, and under
the influence of a frenty, executes on him a
judgment which was as just as it was summary.
The issue which you are hore to decide is,
whether this act renders its author amenable
to the laws of the land. In the decision of
that issuo, gentlemen of the jury, you have a
deep and Bolcmn interest. You are hero to fix
the price of the marriage-bed; you are hero to
say in what estimation that sacroil couch is
held by an honest and intelligent American
jury; you may foel a pity in reviewing this
occurrence for the lifo that has been taken; you
may regrot the necessity which constrained
that evont, but while you pity the dead, re
member also that you should extend com
miseration to the living. That life, takon
away as it was, may prove to be your and my
gain. You know not how soon tho wile or
daughter of some one of you had been,
in fact you know not but she had been,
marked by the same eyes that destroyed the
marriage relations of this defendant.
You knew not how soon tho gardens of love
liness over which you now preside, had that life
been spared, would have been called upon to
supply their flower to satisfy the insatiable appe
tite of the deceased.
An interference with the marriage relations
must strike every reflecting mind as the greatest
wrong that can be committed on a human being.
It has been well said that affliction, shame, nov-
orty and captivity are proferablo, and I do not
know that t can express the sentiment more
ably than in reciting tho lines which the great
dramatist has placed in the mouth of the Moor.
on tho supposed discovery of the inconstancy of
uia AB5U0IUOntt.
You are here to decide whether the defender
ot tne marriage-bed is a murderor; whether he
is to be put on the same footine aa the firnt mur
derer, and is to be presented in his moral and
legal aspoots witn tne same. hue of aggravation
about him.
Mr. Graham reviewed thoopouing speech of the
"u, Abtviurjr m wnion no spoae oi sicKles
going out to a carnival of blood; of him being
a walking magazine, and of him standing over
his bleeding and dying victim with his pistol
in his hand. The arms that the prisoner at
the bar had seen, were not so dangerous to the
community as were the opera-glass and the
handkerchief that the deceased carried for the
purpose of destroying the domestic peace and
honor of the prisoner. The world was bene
fited by the death of.&uoh a man as Philip Bar
ton Key.
During this part of the speeoh the father of
Mr. Sickles wept, and many other persons were
moved to tears.
Mr. Graham proceeded to cite various legal
authorities in regard to the various degrees of
crime of murder and manslaughter. It was for
the jury to inquire whether the prisoner, at the
time he shot the deceased, was moved by a
violent and sudden passion which he could not
control.
If this should be proved to their satisfaction,
he was not aocountable to the law for the deed
he had done. They should inquire and decide
from the testimony to be brought before them,
whether the prisoner's mind was not tempo
rarily disordered by the appalling discovery
of the destruction of his wife's virtue. The
prisoner was not guilty of crime, because when
he slew the deceased he was thon defending
his household and vindicating an infamous
wrong. In causing the death of one man ho
was probably the moans of preventing the
death of many who might be tempted to com
mit tho same crime that the deoeased had. If
this offonse were to go unpunished where so
ciety had not protected a man from injury by
proper laws, it was the duty of eaoh member of
society to protect himself. He should protect
himself as much against an adulterer as a
burglar. Human laws in all oivilized coun
tries allow a man to kill a burglar whom he
may discover breaking into his house at night.
The laws sanation the killing of a burglar, and
the same authority must sanction the rodress of
a far groator injury done by the adulterer.
Mr. Graham read a part of the English law
on the subject, citing the statute of Edward the
First, which makes adultory a deadly sin. lie
also cited tho laws of Massachusetts, Ohio, Vir
ginia and Pennsylvania, the only States whore
adultery is legally punishable. Ho contonded
that Key was a trespasser on the home of
Sickles, and that Siuklos had a perfect right to
punish him, as he would have the right to pun
ish any other trespasser. He donied that the
counsel for the prosecution should prove that
there was malice in the killing, and not leavo it
to be Implied. If they imply, they will fail to
make out their case. The defense need not go
further. If malioe is not proved, the jury
could acquit the prisoner. On the evidenao
thus far adduced, a jury of twelve Indian sav
ages would indignantly repel the idea of oou
viotion. The prosecution must prove that thore
was malice, and the jury oan not build a verdiot
of guilty on the presumption of a thing which
does not exist. It is a tragic thing to shed
blood, but it is not always a tragio thing to
shed tho blood of an hdultoror. It had been
proved by the evldenoe for the prosooution that
Key had defiled the bed of the prisoner at tho
bar; the latter had admitted that he was so
wronged, and he had ample proof of it.
The defense might there rest the case, and
demand the acquittal of the prlsonor, on the
ground of having proved the adulterous inter
course; but they would not stop here. Tbey
intend to present to the jury facts of adulterous
proceedings of the deceased, with all their
revolting details; proving that at the very
time that Key was engaged in them, he was
a trusted and familiar friend of the prisoner
at the bar.
Mr. Graham here took up the Bible, and
ttommenoing at Genesis, he went through to
prove the justice of killing an adulterer. He
cited the case of the United States . Jarboe,
who was tried In this Court for killing the
seducer of his sister.
In that case the Judge ruled that the jury
must inquire Into the state of the prisoner's
mind at the time of the killing. He thought
that It was conclusively proved from these and
other passages that the greatost crime known
and rocngnized by the Bible was that of adul
tory, and it was shown that in the common tri
bunals of the world, there was no greater prov
ocation that could be offered to a man. It was
folly to punish a man for what he could not
help doing, and a man oould notholp Inflicting
summary vongeanee upon anothor whom he
hnd discovered to have wronged him in this
way. It was not neocssnrv that the adulterer
should bo oaughtin the very aot of committing
his crime; it was sufficient to discover and catch
him so noar to the commission as Key was in
this case. This was all that was necessary, and
then the law can look Into the degree of provo
cation that was offered the husband.
" Mr. Graham was listened to with intense In
terest, the Court-room being more crowded
than heretofore. The Court adjourned. Mr.
Graham has not finished.
Arrival of the Overland Mail.
St. Louis, April 10 The Overland Califor
nia mail, with dates to the 18th ult., arrived
here last night. The steamer Uncle Sam had
returned to San Francisco after landing a por
tion of the Sixth Infantry at the mouth of the
Colorado. Col. Hoffman would commence ac
tive operations against the Mohave Indians
obout the 2Ulh of March.
Businoss was brisk at San Francisco. The
miners were doing well.
The advices from Vancouver's Island and
British Columbia are choering. The British
Government was making improvements and
encouraging immigration.
The reception of tho President's message at
Guyamas created much excitement, and en
hanced the value of property.
Additional by the Canada.
Halifax, April . The following interesting
prooeodings in tho Spanish Cortos, rolative to
Cuba, is furnished by the Canada's papers :
In the Chamber of Deputios, a call having
been mado for the production of the papers
rolativo to tho negotiation between tho United
States, France and England, for tho acquisition
of Cuba by America, tho Minister of Foroign
Aiiairs repuoatnat somo uoputiesnauexpresned
a desire to see the administration of Cuba im
proved, and the President of the United States
expressed the saino wish.
Tho opinion of tho President was that Spain
did not administer Cuba well, and that the
United Stntes, on account of their higher in
telligence, had a moral duty to fulfill, which
was to purchase the island.
Tho Government could not allow this idea
about Cuba to remain uncontradicted. All
Governments had labored to improve the condi
tion of that island, and the Cabinet had beon
constantly ocoupied with measures calculated
to give the inhabitants of that island the share
they ought to possess in tboir intended admin
istration without compromising tbo tios which
unite them to the mothor country.
The best reply to the representations of cer
tain orators of the Unitod States was the pros
perity of the island of Cuba.
Tbat the question of the acquisition of the
island was imposing and menacing could not
be donied; nevertheless the government declared
that it folt all the security which its great
national resources were calculated to inspire.
It has not, however, rendered insult for in
sult, as that would probably have aggravated
the question. It has conducted itself with
prudence and dignity, and had not applied for
assistance to any other power.
If any other foreign power had offered assist
ance, the government would have felt gratified,
but it would not have accepted of it, because
it did not think any aid was necessary, as no
diplomatic dooument existed on the question,
which, happily, was almost terminated.
