What became of that and hie nnuef. We prore that he ilid't want money?for a few days before he had refused for hit watch. We hear nothing of the pocket book?though we do hear something of the watch. And here we show that Adam* was not only ranrdcied, but that be wa* also robbed. [Here Mr. S. nuppoaed a somewhat parallel case which was ingenmiitf ly caicuta cu iu carry cwuntuun home to the jury.] We are to judge of that act of killing l?y the subsequent conduct of the prisoner He wuo could act su deliberately after the killing, could a* deliberately plan the luurdcr. He says that he went out and sew his brother at the City Hotel, uud court rsud with liitn. If Colt's staieinrnt that he went to the City Hotel at about dusk, and s;*oke to his brother were founded iu truth, why should so important a matter as this, contradicting directly the estiriiony of Wheeler, Seignetteand Delnoee, who declare that uo one left the room till ten o'clock, be passed over in silence in the evidence! Why was not tlat brother called to testify to so material a point* It may be said that he has other brol' er Hut a brother would hare travelled from one enc'ifof the world to the o:hor to testify to so important a point, bimith said it was wholly unnecessary for him to say that the statement of Colt was not evidence; but it might be uted against him, though it could not iu his favor. There ton was the statement that he hired a man to take the box down stairs, directly contradicted bj undoubted testimony. Why then not say iu this 'confession' that he took tne box down himself? Because then the mark upon hit hhoultlrr would have been accounted for, and to do this was no part of his purpose. And if he did hire the uian, why not briug him forward! Wo; tho whole thing was got up to act on the passions, prejudices, and sympathies of the Jury, (Here Mr. Smith went ingeniously over the evidence, and showed the contradictions between it uud the confession the caulking of the fox ?Wheeler hearing no sobs or groans?Colt just about to leave his occupancy of Wheeler's room? the appointed time of the sailing of the vessel?his delay iu giving up tb-it room?the corresponding delay in the sailing of the vessel. His coolness in going to Adams's office vfter the murder, and to Wells, all these were ably and eloquently dwelt upon. Again, said Mr S. we find him in that very room where he bad committed the murder?merrier than ever, and even singing. He goes to the veiy room where he has committed this horrible act, and there in singing and smoking, he passes his idle hours. Perhaps he is not superstitions?I think he is not. But, if that be so, still his heartless levity is anaceountable.? All men are uot alike but let me ask you if there is uot a singularly solemn feeling?a peculiar sensation that operates on the mind when we visit an apartment where death has recently been 1 We all that when we enter a room where a friend hns died?though the last hours of the departed were cheered with the music of affection, and their pillow smoothed by the bauds of kindred still about that apartment, there hangs for a long time afterwrrda a peculiar?an indiscribabiy solemn feeling. It is the involuntary tribute which nature pays to the memory of the dead. (Here sewnl of the ladies seemed greatly affected.) And this shows that this man's mind is singularly constituted?and that therefore it is idle to say that because the dead is imorobable, he could not have do> e it. (Here Mr. Smith pointed out the contradictious between the confession and Caroline Henshaw's testimony.) He went on :?"As to the tnark on his ueek, there is no naeesiity to impeach her testimony, when we consider the position in which she stands. A female's virtue is the anchor which binds her to the world; when once that is lost, no matter by what means; the only tiethat binds her to society it severed. If at intervaUshe has tbonghts ofreturning to the oaths of virtue, and makes attempts to regain her lost condition, custom thunders forth the mandate, pronouncing the startling sentence, you have pHssed the bartier, and you can never, never, return Testimony from sneb a source requires ao impeachment. Such a witness ha?no incentive to virtue; but is controlled by interest and feeling. Far he it from me to speak with severity of that wituess for the purpose of wonuding her feelings; poor, unfortunate woman, from my very soul 1 pity her. And 1 shall say nothing but what ray uut j |HUIU|JIB iuc |U Ui cr. uuu airiwwH Bll? ISH enough to struggle with. Slit wa? the mother of the prisoner*!* child, and it would be strange indeed ifthe young mother would not come forward to testify strongly in favor ot the father of her offspring. (Mr. S. then went over Wheeler's testimony about ^the noise, a?kcnntradicting Colt's account of the conflict, and showed that in any view of the case, from all Colt's acte,he was clearly guil ty of murder. Colt mnst hare known that sucb blow would kill Adams, before he struck them. He also showed Irom testimony ?f the doctors, that after the first blow Adams must hare been powerless also from Adam's temper that he could not hare struck Colt first?if at all. C dt would have had more excuse if lie had proved himself to be of a violent temper. Mr. A. then cited the various authorities defining the degrees of the crime, which we have before given, as to the instrument used and the manner of using it being evidence of the intent We cannot follow Mr. Smith's admirable remarks, but must conclude with one very beautiful passage in his really brilliant speech After alluding to the fact that the prisoner s counsel had urged tne kind and affectionate nature of Jokn C. Colt, front his keeping his mother's and sister's hair, he said, "Will they say that beeause he exhibited feeling in this one solitary instance, that therefore too are toconsider him mild, gentle, and hamanel Why, gentlemen, let me appeal to your feelings in this matter. Let me ask you what is the laat things man forget* 1 What is that which linger* longest and sweetest upon our memoryT Is it not the recollection of her who gave ns being, and who first taught us the lessons of virtnel The name of mother is the Inst uttered by the pirate under the yard arm, or by the murderer as he mount8 the scaffold!

Mr. Smith coneladed by referring to the cry of perseentionthat had been raised, and a solemn exhortation to the jury, to do their duty between the people and the prisoner, regardless of the result to any one. He spoke ttvo and a half honrs. Mr. Selden spoke two and a half hours, till three o'clock. After the recess, he spoke from four till seven o'clock, in a strain of thrilling eloquence We have full notes of liis speech, and may give it hereafter, if onr space will admit. The Conrt adjourned at the cloee of Mr. Selden's speech. Special Sessions. Before Judge Noah, and Aldermen Timpson and Innes. J as. 28 ?Wm.

Those Dead Bodies.?William Boyce, the cartman, who stands charged with being concerned in couveying the three dead bodies from Potter's Field to the Crosby street Medical College, for dissection on Wednesday night, was arraigned yesterday at the upper police office. Ceorqe W. Sciii'vlem, recently appointed keeper of Potters Field by the Common Council, was summoned as a witness. He appeared, accompanied byjJames S. Brady, Esq as counsel, and after being sworn and questioned as to his knowledge of the removal of the dead bodies from Potters Field, found in the cart of Boyce, refused to answer any thing relative to the case, alledging that he had understood a suit had been menced against him, and he, therefore, could not answer icithout implicating himself?" Justice Palmer then informed him that no charges had been preferred against him-to his knowledge, but he still refused to answer on the gronnd that he would criminate himsell! He tras then discharged, and Boyce remanded to prison for further examination.

The weather haa moderated again and from the mild and genial state of the atmosphere, we may again imagine ourselves transported into the month ot May. The ladies hav; made their appearance in great number?, and their attendance in the Legislative halli has been very large. They have been repaid too, for although there has been but little business done, there has been a great deal of talk, and the debates of to-day in both houses?the Assembly in particular? have been characterised with more piquancy and vivacity than any that have occurred as yet. In the Aibi.ix, from the Committee on Public Punting, reported a bill for the appointment of a Slate Printer, and the regulation of the public printing. Whether the bill will pass, or if it did so, could go into operation, I am not prepared to say but a more just and essentially democratic disposition of it was never proposed. The prominent features of the bill are as followsIt proposes that the State Printer shall be chosen in the same manner as is the Secretary of State, and any vacancy shall be filled in the same manner. That the printing of all legislative documents, fcc. shall be given to the State Printer, or any other person or persons who shall contract to do it, giving proper security, at prieee at least ten per cent more favorable to the State than are paid at present That the contracts shall not be for a longer period than one year, and shall run out on the 30th of September in each year. The law to take effect immediately, and all others conflicting with its provisions are repealed. The day upon which the election for State Printer is to be made is the day of 1812. All legal advertisements in the present Slate paper to be published until the time they are required to be continued by law shall have expired, and to be valid. All blanks to be printed for the use of the Canal Commissioners to be given out to the lowest bidder. The bill was referred to the committee of the whole. The committee of the whole took up the bill for the incorporation of the village of Chittenango, Madison county, and a most sprrited debate ensued, which continued until the close of the sitting. In resuming the discussion, Mr. Lott, of Kings county, said that there was something more than merely the incorporation of a village involved in this discussion ?there was a great principle, whether property should be the test of merit. He was opposed to granting exclusive privileges to this particular village, and so it would be if the amendment, striking out the wordssubjeot ts taxation, in the enumeration of qualifications requisite for voters at village meetings, was not adopted as upon examination he had found ihat almost overy charter granted to villages was without this odious qualification. Gentlemen objected, on the ground that it was unjust to allow rii individual to vote away the money of another one. This amerdment would leave the qualifications the same a* at town meetings, where every voter took part, whether it was proposed to lay a tax or any thing else. Mr. Smith, of Genesee, said it was n principle which he hoped would never gain ground in this Stat", to allow the interference of a man who had not the slightest interest in the matter, in the disposal of hi? neighbor's property. He looked upon it as mere bucaaeering. He held that only those should participate in the imposition of taxes who were obliged to pay them. This bill proposed nothing more?it dia not interfere in the slightest with the elective franchise. Mr. McMukrat contended that such principles were worthy only of the Hamiltonian age. Who paid the taxes 1 only those whose names arc on the assessors' roll I No, sir?it was the laborer, the hard workingman?the huge paw, whodid it It was the hand of industry?industry, hard working industry ?not speculative industry, who paid all our taxes. He was sorry to see a jealousy evinced against the poot?a disposition to make properly a test ot merit. 11 was* uilioutiucu 1U pi lucipic? uuivuuuru in riuc* rience and practice. Tne hard working hand ut industry was always found raived in support of economical ex pond 11 are and reform, and it was the rich who favored taxation and lavish expenditure. And why I Because they know 'tis the poor man who h;s eventually to pay the tax Who sent a majority on this Hoor, pledged by every principle of honor und consistency to retrenchment and reform? the rich/! No?'tw as the hard working laborer and mechanic, who were always found in the ranks of the pany w hich favored eucn measures. Tne strides of civil liberty and popalar rights was onward; they were as yet but in their infancy. Though a young man, he might be permitted to raise his voice in warning to the party?he cared not which?that attempted to stop it. Deep disgrace and lasting opprobrium would be ihe inevitable tesulr. It was said that the father of Themistocles, when his eon was about entering in the sea of politics, endeavored to dissuade him from such a purpose, lie showed him upon the sea shore a pair of broken oara, used as long as they were sound, and ca?i away when broken. lie com pared them to politicians and political parties, who as loag as they were sound and upright, enjoyed thepo|u!ar favor; but swerving from that path, were cast aside and forgotten So it would be vilh our pany, if they de_ J I- I h.. l.tau, t k? paucu i*? IIWIII IIIV ^IVUI uviiiuvmiiv Jfaitr pl?u>. Tneir late was certain, lie maintained in conclusion that all men were created tie- and equal, and property should never be made a test ot merit. Mr CitArriELD, (the Speaker) ro?" and said, that he would tell hie y??ung friend from New York, that his democracy had not as yet taken such strides as to admit that all men were created equal in the extensive sense taken by him. That applied to their political rights, which were not born to them,but created. His democracy had uut as yet taken such strides as had his friend from New York, who favored the extension of the franchise, even to negroes. If all men were created equal, why was not the gentleman endowed with the faculty of clothing fact in plain unvarnished speech, instead of in tropes and figuies, wandering about culling a noeegv here and a boquel there, losing sight ot his subject in the maz- of words. Had the gentleman gone a little further he would have found that the instrument from whence he derives Ins authority, expressly slates ihat all tnen are also endowed [wiih life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness This guaranteed Lim theright to dispose ot his own property A good deal ot sharp shooting followed in ihe course ot the debate.

But so nacious were the framera of the law of the righti the creditors, that the discharge was made dopei ent on theconsentof the creditor, but if the credi persisted in keeping the insolvent in jail?tb then said that the creditor shonld pay t shillings and sixpence a week for the int vent's support. But on the contrary this 1 was but a sponge, to be used by the debtor, wipe out his debts and obligations, and the debti men who had been "guilty, in many cases, the most wanton extravagance. It went beyo and contemplated an object entirely different fr the system which must have been in view of (ranters of the constitution, when a provision incorporated in that instrument to give Congrr power to pass a uniform system of bankrupt throughout the United States. Mr. Ciioat* said the retrospective feature of bankrupt law was the only one on which he b ever felt a moment's anxiety; but he sustained it 'he first plana, because he represented a credi State, ana because that State, on the ground of* interest, adhered to the retrospective feature of i bill. Massachuaeta had manifested a disposition try the bankrupt law; her Legislature had pa* resolutions in its favor twice, numerous petitu had come from her citizens, who had property the amount of at least $30,000,000 entrusted out every State of the Union. He did not stand th? to put it to the account of a romantic human i that Massachusetts favoured a retrospect, bankrupt law but to a keen, far sighted ee ware (Mr. Bayard) had said that the bill was uujw because it was to be nsea as a sponge to wipe outi isting debts. Iu that objection there wasgreat weigl and if it were not over borne by a great amount public usefulness hechould hesitate to give it I support. At a period when the public mil was relaxed and debauched?when the cry "repudiation" rung in their ears?it was i a light thing for the government to wipe ont en tstingdebt, even of a dollar and if it was not ov borne by ten thousand larger considerations of pedieticy, he should be half inclined to go against But he entreated the light toned morality of t Senate to remember that this objection was r peculiar to the Bankrupt Law i every insotvt law that the world ever saw, was exposed tot same objection but sound policy demanded it It was amongst the duties of a government enforce me ngnis 01 dumokj ana 10 reus the debtor from the hopekss stale of poBti ti?n in whieh so many were now found. He, the f?re, advocated the bill as a work of humanity. There was nothing txiiiliratiog in our aflai whether they looked at home or abroad :>ro there were increasing chances of war?at t:oi doubt and distrust; destroyed confidence, d:-tract councils, and discordant voices of those that thoi be brothers and yet above all these tight a sounds, if the law was allowed to go into ion e the let February, the sweet silver trump of juOil would be heard with the morning's dawn, an e-pj through the morning air, proclaiming delivran 10 the captives and oh how much would this to enliven, if not to dispel the gloom, which around pre v tiled. Ma. nani-oa's reasons were not given beyond reference lo the arguments on which he rein when he introduced his bill to postpone the opei lion ot the bankrupt Law for while he wa- ct i the (hiesliold of his subject, apprehensive f a k> speech, and demruus.to coerce intn into silenc-.-. it ihe question might be taken, the whig Sen .to lelt the r-enafe Chamber almost in u body, in t expectation, doubtless, of being called iu when t Senator had finished The course pursu- u m*g possibly satisfy him that they were not desirous hear more, but his friends look advantage of t: c euinstance, and carried a motion te adjourn, ik gives him to morrow to deliver his speech, am. f one day longer leaves the many thousands r si peuse, whose hopes will be consummated or i -t hv the action ot the Senate.
