CAUSE OF DELAY ,
CONSTANTINOPLE , August 16. It is
stated in Turkish circles that the hes

BBTIiER'S "CONQUEST.
APlrotlcal Craft Purchaaettln Halifax.
bpecitl Dispatch to Tun 1I .
HALIFAX , August JO. The recent
purchase of the schooner Conquest , 20
years old , by Gen. Butler , of Boston ,
has created much comment , nnd many
surmises are made relative to the ob
ject of the ownor. The vessel sailed
yesterday. The Chrouiclo says , as
her clearance states , she is bound for
Port Crockett , said to bo in Madagas
car , a long voyage for so small a ves
sel , and the secrecy with which the
whole enterprise has boon gotten up
makes it seem 'not improbable that
that port ia not her destination. As
far as we have boon able to learn it
appears enquiries for a British bottom
tom of suitable dimensions had been
made for some time past by Capt. F.
Farr , of Gloucester , a gentleman well ,
known for the prominent part ho took
in the late war of our southern neigh
bors. Failing to find a suitable ves
sel flying the British flag .in American
waters , Capt. Farr despatched an
agent to Canada , where at last in
Halifax the required article wes found
in the schooner Conquest , a gloomy ,
black , piratical looking craft. An ex
traordinary high price was paid for
her.
her.Tho
The bulwarks of the vessel are well
fitted to hide small guns , with which
our observations lead us to beliovosho
will bo mounted. Cnptalji Tarr was
hero the past two weeks , and superin
tended the alterations that have boon
made in the vcasol to suit
her for the peculiar trio , what
ever it may provo to bo. Lurgo
quantities of stores , safllciont for 30
or forty men for nine months , em
barked on the Conquest , notwith
standing that only two boys , besides
the captain nnd mate , tmilod in her
from this port. The departure of
twenty sea fat ing men to tlio east by
land conveyance withtnj a few day *
leads to the impression that the Mad
agascar bound vessel is not going to
sea light-handed. Added to what wo
have said , the fact that arms and am
munition arrived by the last Boston
steamer consigned to the projectors of
thia enterprise , a not unnalural fool
ing is felt that Capt. Tarr , either for
himself , or more probably for Gen.
Butler , is engaged in an undartaking
that will bearing watching , and the
outcome of which may bo looked for
ward to with seine interoat.
The Cattle Fever.
Special DUpatcb to Tils UIK.
CHICAGO , August 10 , J. II. Sanders -
dors , member of the United States
cattle commission , says for the month
ending July 15th , Chicago received
nearly 80,000 head of Texan cattle , a
greater number than ever before in
the sarno length of tiraox They were
mostly slaughtered and these not
killed were kept apart from the do
mestic cattle and are not likely to in
fect them with the Texas cattle fever
this year , * although eastern breeders
who have not learned how to deal with
the disease are troubled with it. San
ders thinks the cattle fever in the east
is from cattle shipped north from
southern states east of Texas while
the cattle are afflicted with Texas
fever.

WASHINOTOW , Aug. 10. Carpenter
of counsel for defense in the star
route case resumed argument to-day ,
Ho wont on to dwell upon the impor
tance of the star- route service , char
acterizing it ns the forerunner of the
rail way sj stem of the country , conlonn-
inijit was necessary for the public good ,
and declaring the allegations to the
contrary in the iudiotniunt were false
hoods from bpRiiliiing to end. Kcrrha3
said "Tho nlabderouatobgiiohadgoMo
oat with words'spoken that am to
ihrow doubt on "your ( the jury1 * ) in
tegrity. " If that meant anything it
neant that in norno way or other the
defendants had .corrupted n portion of
the jury. Senator Dorsoy had faced
death in a thousand farms upon the
jftttlo field , but he had uot
; ho courage tof approach n jury
with any dishonorable proposition ,
[ f slanderous tongues had gona forth
it must have ROHO ' from the prosecu
tion , if from anywhere , nnd now the
jury was asked to- wash its chivvaotpr
in perjury in order to clean tlio atniu
which the prosecution hud thrown
upon it. In concluding C.trpantor
eatd : "Whon I rSmembor , us a mut
ter of popular history , tliut all these
charges wore bruited in the nowopa-
pora of a great political party durum
i heated campaign two years before
this indictment waa found ; when I re
member they wore canvassed by the
press on ono aide nnd explained or do-
tiii'd by the other ; when I romoiaher
the attempt to fconncct thu Iftto presi
dent of the UnUud States witli the
very transaction j o which thin iut'iot-
niuiit rufurn ; whfcu I tonjuinbjiIlia
proud position , my client occu
pied as n purty'leader , I cannot but
bo reminded ot the ovanoscout charno-
tor of everything earthly. I need not
remind you that in the near f ututo wo
must all leave , and prior to leaving
there will como a ! moment when mem
ory will unlock all clasps , and will
turn over , p go by pa < ? o , every act of
our lives. May you have the con
solation in that supreme hour to cull
to mind that uuawed by popular
clamor , unshaken by prejudice , defy-
iug-tho yowor oi the government , that
you diBchargedyuur duty and ren
dered , in accordance with the testi
mony in this case , a verdict of not
guilty.
Jclf. Chandler was next counsel for
the defense ( and especially Brady ) to
address the jury. Beginning in a low
voice , ho gradually warmed up to his
subject , and received the closest at
tention from ovary occupant of the
crowded oourfroom. . In support ot
the proposition of law , Chandler was
about to road from the decision run-
dtred by the court in the early part of
the case when Morriok , under the im
pression ho was about to quotu from
oomo other authority and thus argue
law to the jury , objected. Tnis gave
rise to quite a heated controversy ,
participated in by the court and Mcr-
rick and Chandler , the last named
contending that counsel had no right
to judge what kind of argument ho
should make to judge nnd jury. He
believed it was tlio constitutional right
of the defendant that the jury should
pass upon every question of law nnd
fact in i ho case , and ho thought he
could establish that by high authority.
He was not willing , however , to of
fend the sensibilities of the court.
Judge Wylio replied that the court
had no sensibility about it , but that if
it were decided that the jury should
judge both of law and fact , the court
might as well withdraw. The jury ,
lie said , had n right to render a gen
eral verdict , but it must take law from
the court.
Chandler : "On that question I
like to bo heard , "
court : "You can bo hoard hero-
after. "
Chandler : "Wo propose to aak in
struction from your honor that in this
case the jury is judge of law and fact ,
and it is far from , not being a respectable -
able proportion. "
The court : "Very well : I will hoar
you on your proposition. "
Chandler thun quoted from thn decision -
cision of the court to which Morrlck
had at first objected , and continuing
lie impressed upon the minds of the
jury the necessity of a verdict of ac
quittal when the mnocenceof [ the great
majority of the defendants thrust it
self upon their convictions. When ,
ho said , the prosocutiun asks you , in
the dying throes of the government
case , to convict two or three men , I
want you to recollect there is no con
spiracy charged against two or throo.
Conspiracy must bo proved against ill
or none.
The court : "Court has not naid the
jury must convict all or none , "
"Horrick : "The court has said just
the contrary , "
Chandler retorted : "Morrick must
have road the record with an indited
retina and inflamed eye to nave como
to that conclusion. "
Continuing his argument ho said
the foundation of the conspiracy wai
laid in the allegation in the indictment
of the mutual interests of all parties
in all contracts. It united the defen
dants in criminal individuality in al
these contracts. The prosecution
claimed that oonipiraojr originated in
innocent partnership , and" from that
took upon itself n criminal form ,
The court inquired whether it had
not been held in many cases thntnomo
nllopod conspirators inlcht bo con
victed nnd others acquitted.
Chandler : "It has , and I will indi
cate the dintinctlon between these
cnocs and this. "
The court : "So long as there nro to
bo convicted , the government my fail
in all others. If the jury nro satis
fied two nro conspirators conviction is
proper , though the charge in the in
dictment is ngainst thorn and many
others. That is my impression ; I
may bo wrong about it. "
Chandler : "That is where conspir
acy is described to ombrtvca tire ns
well as nil. You may indict n man
for stealing n horse nnd you need not
provo the color of the horao , but if
indict him for stealing n red horse
with n white nose , you must provo
that the horse ho stole * was
n red horse with n white nose.
Now they have described this con
spiracy. They have described it by
its subject matter and by names of
individuals interested in this subject
matter. They cannot tear themselves
nwny from the description They
have elected to describe this con
spiracy in a particular way , and having
no elected they must stand or fall
by that description. "
The court : "If the jury are of the
opinion that whatever money wna paid
olllcora of the government wns paid
by separate members of the defense
in their separata characters , without
regard to any conspiracy , there is
nbaonco of nny proof of conspiraoy.
Out that is not the echoino ot the
prosecution. It in the converse of
hat ; that though tlioso parties were
ovorally interested in contracto , yet
liny entered into a conspiracy by
vliich they made common causa for
ho purpose of securing the oxpodi-
ion. '
Uliaudlor : "That is the achomo ex
actly.1'
CXmrt ; "Dj I understand you to
contend that , if conspiracy should bo
limui 113 to sumo of thoiu contracts ,
uul otlmra nhould not bo embraced in
hu tormaof coiispiiiwy , there could bo
10 uoiivio'ioil" '
Clinudlui : "I do contend that ext
t thing that the omiB | > ir.hoy must
> o proved ns laid , or it fnlla to uieoua.
In illustration of the proposition that
t was incumbent on the prosecution
, o provo thnt the government had
) 'eon injured by the expedition of utar
routes , I will put a hypothetic\1 ca&o
, o the court. Suppoio ho had bribed
n public nlliour to pi : n u just claim ,
[ admit ho would bo liublo to indlct-
nont for bribery , M would nlno be the
ifllcur , but doou the court hold Hint
; hey coulu bo couvicti'd under indict
niont for coi npinicy to defraud the
United States ? "
The cotirc said ho would leave it to
Merriok to answer that question.
Morrick suggested that Chandler
should have an opportunity to think
river his question , and the court ad
journed.

A QUESTION OV AUTII01UTY.
There seems to bo a conflict of ppin-
on between Judge Riyiior , solicitor
if the treasury and Judge Lawrence ,
irsb comptroller of t'io ' treasury , as
: o who is the law officer or legal ad
viser of the treasury department. In
lis annual report of December laat to
; ho secretary , Comptroller Lawrence
said , "I am the law officer of the do >
mrtmont. " Some weeks since the
question of an account against thu
{ ovornmont wmrroforrod by the sec
retary of the war to the attorney gen
eral for an opinion upon the legality
of the claim , and the latter gave an
niiicial opinion in favor of the claimo ,
i ) Hed upon hla construction of the
law. The ca o wont before Comptrol
ler Lawrence as the proper accounting
jllloor , to state the account between
thu government and the claimant ,
The comptroller filed nn opinion , in
which ho took isauo with thu attorney
general upon the point of law involved ,
The socrutary of the tronsury referred
the matter to the Kolicitor of the
troaanry , and ho has given an opinion
in which ho nays , "I conclude
to conform to the views expressed
in the official opinion of the attorney
general , I do not understand that
thu first comptroller has any authority
to expound law after a suit has buou
instituted or intorfnro in the manage
ment of suits brought upon nooounts
as nUuod by himself , The first
comptroller is dimply an accounting
officer. Ho has power and authority
to pass upon the law of accounts , so
far a it is applioablo in the statement
of the same and ntriklng of balances
thereon , After stating an account It
which I admit ho is Independent o !
all other official functionaries , it is the
business and duty of the solicitor to
bring suit on the account as thus
stated by the comptroller , but the at
torney general , as the head of the de
partment of justice , may bo regarded
us having control and direction on
suits brought on behalf of the government
