There are too many reasons for believing that the subsidence of the florin may be followed by a record of casualties occurring in thinly settled portions of the State, among those who ifiy have been away from their dwellings and exposed to the ruh of the wind and snow, and pnralyied, blinded and killed by the furious und long continued storm.

Great surprise followed the request of District Attorney Phelps to postpone the case for one hour for consultation of the prosecution counsel upon information in their possession which would dec de whether they would proceed or not with the case against Tweed. The Judge granted an hour's recess. It is believed that the delay was asked for consequent upon the discovery that one of the jurors is a member of the Amcricus Club which was founded by Tweed. It was subse qucntly decided by the prosecution to go on. Peckham commenced the opening address.
