A COMPLIMENT TO ABBEVILLE.

THE SICKLES TRIAL. 3
Wabiiisotun, April 14, 1869.
This has been n triumphant dny for tlie defence.
The rulings of the Court and tlie nniinoseness
of tlie prosecution niininst tlie prisoner,
forced his counsel to display uiiusunl victor.
Tlie effect of Stanton's appeal to the Judge
nnd Ins nit nek on the prosecution, produced a
decided impression. The replv of the pros ecu
tion, comparing the counsel of the prisoner to
n troupe of actors, produced n still more decided
impression. nnd it was Stanton's response
to lliis language tliut brought, down the burs',
of npplntlsc that the Judge wns scarcely able
to suppress.
A tilt afterwards ensued between Carlisle,
for the prosecution, nnd.Stanton, in whieh the
polished sarcasm of the former was entirely
i lost nniid the broadsides of the latter.
?? ?- ?i.? <...lliaiiin between tlie
| j /\ l in I'muc vuv .?
> Judge mil. Stanton, who niniiilain'ed his posi!
lion with great resolution. It was manifest
1 ! I lint, the sympathies of tint jury, as is usual in
f j such cases, were with advocate.
r| The evidence of several witnesses, who t.estii
fied to seeing Key for two months giving signals
with his handkerchief about the house of
Sickles, settled that point in the minds of nil.
1 The greatest sensation of the day was llie
. prodnelion of the lock, which was fitted by
two keys found in the pocket of Mr. Key aflui
n his decease, and which were in Court. When
ie I he locksmith testified that he took the loek of]
_ t he door of the assignat ion house hired hy Key
and wns employed to do so hy the brother in
law of Key, Hon. Mr. Pendleton, the efTect \va
' indescribable. So damagiui; was this to th
i- prosecution that Carlisle rose, nm id profoum
|le silence, and stated that he had no knowleilg
of the transaction. It is strange that thisluc
n was discovered in the attic room of some lions
in Washington, where it had been sold by tli
.is- locksmith.
u_ The defenec have succeeded in provingFirst.,
that Key was in the habit of making en
nals to Mrs. Sickles for two months and up
liis wards. Second, that he carried about lii
to keys of the house that it it is alleged he ni
Mrs. Sickles visited. It remains to prove th
Key and Mrs.. Sickles frequented this lion
8?" clandestinely, nml this will be sufficient leu
evidence to satisfy the jury of adiilttery.
so- the jury are convinced of this, the acipiitinl
u to Sickles is certain. The prosecution were eo
Dili founded by the discovery ofihis loek, and
Jity appears that a person who is assisting t
un- prosecution was one of those who aided in n
idi- stracting the lock. This gentleman, wi
?fn| others concerned, will be put on the stand t
co? morrow by the defence.

UK. EVERETT'S Muum vj^uxiuh xr.n..
Tlie Journal of Commerce innkes the followir.g
very just reflections on Mr. Everett and the
Mount Vernon Papers, and the unreasonableness
of the public expectation on the subject:
Probably no writer for the press has been
more generally or more severely criticised,
than bus Mr. Edward Everet' since hiscontiec
Lion with the New York Ledger. It was in
pome sense his misfortune to enjoy a reputation
for literary eminence scarcely inferior to any
tunii of modern times. His occasional productions
hud won for him >i world-wide reputation,
and it seemed to betaken for granted
that every one of hisfifiy-two contributions tt
the Ledger must equal in style, matter, and interest,
his magnificent orations and his mos
elaborate papers.
That the public at. large, those who are no
* ?
acquainted with newspaper moors, umu ?...
cnmstarices under which th?>y are performed
sli<>u 1*1 have erroneous views on the subject
does not to us appear singular, hut tliut th
conductor* of newspapers should llicmselvt
full into the mistake of anticipating from an
man. however trifled or aide, a succession <
articles not only without fault or hleinish, bt
possessing the holiest 'literary merit,
quite surprising. Such, however, appears
have been the expectation pervading tl
| public mind and the press. respect inir the m
|- del-taking of Mr. Kverett. iu furtherauec ? t I
noble object, to which lie is devoting so lur
\ a share of his time, and of his powerful a
s cultivated mind.
To say that, all of the series of "Mount V
j nyn papeis" have been brilliant or uuusuit
e able, would be more than the occasion (
(. mauds ; more, we do not doubt, than their i
e tlior himself would claim for them. But n
u whole, they have been chaste and racy in si.
and interesting in matter, while some of tli
_ have the merit ol conveying \aluuble in fori
tion scarcely accessible to others, and poss
Z. ing very decided interest for the public
m large. What more can be said of the writi
