Wells , appointed to aid in the trial of certain criminal offenses alleged to have boon committed in the progress of the recent - cent trial of the otar ronto cases BO cjllod. Wells says : The atlldavits ahow , if they itro to bo baliovod , that mumbera of the jury wcro offered bribes in money for their votes , which they listened to and considered with the persons thus attempting to do- biuch them , and these solicitations , it is alleged , proceeded as well from agents of the government as from agents of persons on triil ; but I assume - sumo it can make no dilFeronco whose agents made the disgraceful proposu'e ' , and that condign punishment should Full upon all guilty paitiea , The case ot Juror EJwin A.

From the affidavit of James Leonard it appears immediately after Shaw had testified : hat ho was an impartial juror and had been rejected , ho said , "Oh , wel ) , damn it , they will never convict them anyhow. If I was on there [ would hang out until hell ircza over hoforo they should bo convicted. " At another time liter io said he "would do anything in the world to save Djrsoy. " Shw said to Domphan , "Look here , I'vo got n damned good thing for you , and I will make a little myBolftoo. I have got money in my pocket to give you if you will favor S. W. Dorsey. I liavo two or three hundred dollars I can glvo you now and will make it a thousand within ton days. " Juror Wrn. K.

As eoon as ho said that I was confident they did not intend to give mo any money bat just to oeo what I would say. I drove him away. Ho said he wan to i to convict Brady and Dorsoy , any of them It was my opinion ho was putting up a job on me. When Brown road the agreement ho was to sign hu said to Pay no , "I am going according to the 'evidence. Fall is a damned rascal , and you can both go to hell. " \ \ oils sajs it is apparent from the whole history of the alleged attempt upon Brown's virtue , it was not done with the knowledge , in bahalf or in the interest of the prosecution ; that its guilty authors were neither ugonta nor acted with the knowledge or ap proval of any officer of the department of justiqa , and it was a carefully prepared - pared conspiracy against the adminis tration of justico. The prosecution of Full , Payne , Thomas and Foote nnd others not named , is recommend ed for attempting to corrupt Brown. The originals of the u (11 ( davits pub lished by Col. Ingersoll are asked to insure nuccensful prosecution.
