ill this morning, when he voluntarily came here (before the Mayor) and gave himself up. General William H. Richardson and Rev. Dr. Michelbacher were then called to testify as to the character of the accused, both of whom spoke of him in the most exalted terms. They had known him, and, in fact, all of the family, from their childhood, and could truly state that a more generous, honorable, and respectable family they had never met with. It was impossible to believe that the accused was guilty of the crime alleged against him. In the absence of one or two other witnesses, the case was continued till such time as their presence can be secured. The Mayor refused to grant the prisoner bail, and he was thereupon remanded to jail. Messrs. A. Judson Crane and Daniel Ratcliffe appeared as Davis's council. Owing to the respectable character of the accused, this case excited considerable interest, and during the progress of the examination the court-room was unusually crowded.
