SATURDAY MORNING, MARCH 28, 1889.
~\\rQ (in not suppose that nnv apology can he ne-
Cf-ssnry to our readers, for inserting the following
communication, and others which may follow it,
on the same subject, so long as they continue to
be .decorously written. “ Hear both sides is an
old and a liberal maxim, and may apply with as
much force to tuis case as to all others. The of
fence with which the individuals stand charged,
is, to be sure, before tne Court for adjudication;
but that we conceive to be no sufficient reason
whv they should be deprived of a hearing in the
public prints; especially *hen all the papers in
the country are daily teeming with paragraphs
calculated to exasperate the public mind against
them, and possibly to prevent a fair trial. Wo
deem it bi t an act of duty to open our columns
equally to both sides.
Mr. Bartlett,
Pm: We are all interested in the preservation
of the laws. The laws were made for our -ecurity
and convenience; and it behoves us to uphold j
them. And yet there are certain principles of
iustice, even more sacred than the laws them
selves: because on them the lutes are bused ; and if
violated, the whole system of human jurispru
dence would crumble away, like the evanescent
creations of a morning dream. Human laws, at
best, are but approximations towards justice
Being human, they partake of human frailty; they
are short sighted and unstable But justice her
solf, is eternal, unchangeable. Laws arc avowedly
made to subserve the purposes of justice, yet being
in their nature imperfect, often fail in the very ob
jects attempted- Consequently, though the laws
are to be reverenced, yet justice is more sacred
still, and demands a higher and a deeper regard.—
In common parlance, we often confound law and
justice; yet they are not always one and the same
thing It requires but little observation to dis
cern, that the principles of justice are not always
protected by them. How often do we see vice
escape with impunity, and virtue bear the odium
which should rest only on the guilty. These are
trite remarks, yet are they pertinent to the matter
in hand. Because in our great clamor about an
alleged violation of the laws, v.e are trampling
under foot thosejfundamental principles of justice
for the protection of which the laws ivere only
established
Does not one strong principle of justice demand
of us, to listen dispassionately to the vindication
of the accused, before we pass sentence of con
demnation against him? And yet, in a recent
transaction, in which an officer of our county is
implicated, how many of us have overlooked this
principle? Judgment Jias already gone Lrth
against him; and punishment is attempted to be
enforced, in a measure of severity, even unknown
to those laws, for the preservation of which vns
are so clamorous! Indeed I have seen with re
gret, that attempts have also been made to bring
down the indignation of the populace on those
disinterested persons, who, not attempting an ex
culpation, have merely deprecated an unreasona
ble excitement, and sought for a calm and delibe
rate decision.
Under such circumstances,'! consider it my
-privilege to be heard through the medium of the
public press. If the Freedom of the Press is any
thing more than a name—a mockerv—a thing
talked of. but not felt—l hope this privilege will
not be denied me. What avails it to boast of the
freedom of the press, the independence of Editors,
if they always feel themselves constrained to fol
low the tide of popular excitement, without daring
in the smallest degree, to check the current? Not
only the principles of justice but the laws of this
—country, guarantee to every accused person, the
privilege of vindicating himself, not only in per
son, but by his counsel. To this vindication I
trust this community, whatever may be their pre
sent feelings, will calmly ana dispassionately
listen. In the remarks which I shall make, with-
out having advised with Mr. Millen, or consulted
with him on the subject, I candidly acknowledge
myself his personal friend. Yet if I know my own
feelings, I am still more the friend of justice; and
1 would rejoice to see her cause triumph, whate
ver may be the effect on myf If or my friends. I
am also the friend of the !*ws. Yet l have lived
long enough to see that the arm of the law is not
always long enough to reach the exact ends of
justice; that though it may punish the weak crim
inal, yet that the strong and powerful offender
* easily breakos through its feeble toils. This con
sideration often induces me to look with mitigat
ed resentment on a step beyond the law, in the
-punishment of a powerf/il culprit, where the end
proposed is clearly within the scope of justice.
VINDEX.
[To be continue?.]
Mr. Walsli, of the Philadelphia United States
Gazette, whose reputation for talents, literary
acquirements, and integrity of character, stands
deservedly high, and places him in the feremost
ranks of’American Editors; and whose position,
beyond the influence of the excitement, enables
him to pass a cool and dispassionate judgment in
regard to the Stephenson affair, has the following
i remarks on the subject:
‘•Whatever irregularity or oppression may have
’ been practised against him, should bo lamented
and rectified; but to treat him as a pitiable martyr,
—an object of public sympathy and kindness—
would bo extremely improper and disreputable.—
.Those arc most to be commiserated —bis part
ners, friends, children, creditors—whom -he be
trayed, sacrificed, plundered and deserted. If wo
may credit any part of the London accounts, he
led a life of the most profligate dissipation, and
lias committed dreadful havoc with the most ela
borate hypocrisy and selfishness. This is a crimi
nal, who, though not yet convicted in the courts,
has shaken the credit and prosperity of the whole
banking system of the British capital; who has
inflicted the deepest distress on perhaps hundreds
of respectable and confiding persons; who has vi
. olated the most saered and important ties, and af-
whom all England seems to have raised &hue
and cry. Let it not be said in Europe, that he
has found in one of our chief cities, a sort of public
patronage and condolence, and been obliged to
plead with the multitude, for the protection of
residents accused of treating him with incivility .
<Jn reference to their own dignity and interests,
the American people will not allow their laws to
be infringed, strained or contemned; nor will they,
ve trust,ever supererogate, or display any tender
•solicitude, in order to secure impunity to undis
puted guilt, in the regular visitation of which the
welfare of society and the rights of innocent indi
viduals in another country, are unfortunately in
volved. Generally, we owe it to our ouiselves,
to our international connexions, and to the cause
■nf honor and virtue, to give as little protection and
•ftoimtenance to foreign crime sheltering itself
amonv us, as possible, consistcutently with the
freedom and independence of our institutions,
we must not cneourage the citizens or subjects of
other governments who become culprits at home,
to presume that they will find here any advantage
or favor beyond what those institutions afford,
strietty and sternly construed for the occasion.
As we boast of superior morality, we ought to
avoid most carefully movements which avert or
counteract the salutary penalties of transgres
sion.”
The following facts very favorably
of the state of public mora’a in England. Our
readers are informed of the villanies practised by
the banker Stephenson; but the cream of the
; matter is, the creditors held a meeting to estimate
| their losses, &C.
“At this meeting, some gentlemen had their
pockets picked in the room; and a thief took Mr.
Montague s list of the creditors depositions which
was lying on the table.”
Parliamentary Eloquence.— The New York Ga
zette says the following choice bit of eloquence is
the conclusion of a long harangue by one of the
Burke’s'of their late General Assembly. It was
vented on the bilLfor the better regulation of com
mon schools:
“Honor and Office are the grand springs to
preparation. They stand like a luminous light
house upon the hill of science, towards which both
the land and sea force of American citizens volun
tarily bend their weary, but untiring and unyield- j
ing courte, until thousands of our most laborious j
students become a sacrifice to science, and their
last expiring breath only puts & final end to all
their earthly hopes. ’
• Gold. —The Faytteviie, [N. N.] Observer, of
the 12th instant, says—'“The gold region in this
state is enlarged by near discoveries almost every
day. We learn tliat the precious article has late
ly been found in several places near Carthage, in
Moore county, about 40 miles from this town.”
Nnr Hampshire Election - The election which
was held in New Hampshire on the 13th inst. has i
resulted in the choice of the Jackson ticket for j
Governor, members of Congress, and a majority j
of members of the Council and ot the Senate.—
Benjamin Pierce, the Governor of 1*27, is again j
chosen in opposition to Gov. 8011. The following :
candidates arc chosen members of the next Con- |
oress: John Brodhead, Joseph Hammons, Jona- j
Than Harvey, Thomas Chandler, Henry Hubbard, \
and John W. Weeks Mr. Harvey is the only •
member of the last Congress who is re-elected |
In consequence, probably, of the bad state of the !
roads the number of votes given was considerably !
less than were given at the last annual election.—
The above results are inferred from the vote al
ready reported, which are as from 77 towns. In
these towns, the votes for Governor, are for
Pierce, 10,034, for Bell 8,701. Os 83 members of
the House of Representatives, ascertained to be
chosen/ 33 are now members.
A machine lias been invented by an Italian for
the purpose of banishing the fog from tha city of
Paris. It is mounted on wheels, and to . emit sul
phurous flainos through tubes, and is to be called
le diabie ambulant.
In Boston, says the Philadelphia Chronicle, a
country girl recently asked a city acquaintance to
go with her tn purchase some articles, and to act
as spokesvvoimn. They entered a shop in Wash
ington street. “Have you any hose?” asked the
ciU’ girl. “I don’t want hose” said the country
maiden, “I want stockings.”
The New Lord Lieutenant of Ireland. —
The Duke of Northumberland’s expendi
ture hasalways beoc .on a scale of princely
magnificence. We are informed by a gen
tleman who knows the fact, that the regu
lar annual allowance for domestic arrange
ments is thirty thousand pounds, and twen
ty-five thousand for the department under
the control of the Master of the Horse.—
His Grace’s income, as Lord Lieutenant,
will be thirty five thousand a year, which
he will probably add to his expenditure, so
that a brilliant Vice Royal Court, always
I popular in Ireland, may confidently be an
ticipated during his Grace’s administration;
i and as the. Duchess is celebrated for pre
! possessing manners bo'h will probably be
favorites with the courtiers and citizens of
Dublin.
Boston, March 12.
Honor and Honesty —Three hovs, from
the H ouse of Reformation for luver.ile
Delinquents at South Boston, who wore on
a visit to the city yesterday morning by
permission, picked up a pocket book in the
street, containing some valuable papers, and
sixty seven dollars in money. They went
immediately to the supermtendant, Mr.
“ells, who happened to be in the city and
gave it to him. We mention this occur
rence with peculiar pleasure, as it illustrates
strongly, in our opinion, the practical utili
ty of the institution, and the excellence of
the system of discipline adopted by the su
perintendani. That must certainly be a
good system of discipiiue which can so
change in a short time, the habits and dis
positions of children undergoing a process
of reform, as to induce them to resist such
n temptation to avail themselves of the mo
ney that accident had thrown in theiroath.
The fact is aJse honorable to the instructor
and to the boys themselves, and should be
recorded as a memorial of their virtue.
March 14.
Donald M’Donald, the Scotchman who
has numbered upwards of 110 years, was
sent to the House of Industry on Saturday
of last week, in astate of intoxication.—
He had bten suffered to go at large but
four days previous, and two of them was
seen about our streets a drunken brawler.
A striking admonition is here presented to
the young, in contemplating a human being,
in whom a lapse of forty years beyond the
“three-score years and ten” has not extin
guished a degrading propensity, which
makes his snowy ‘locks., objects of meri
inent and derision, instead of .reverence
and wonderful attention. Subdue then,
while young, inordinate desires: so, when
fullness of years shall come upon you, may
your approach to the grave be sereoe and
full of honor.
Interesting Case of Honesty. —On
Thursday, the 8• li uit. Lard Gwyder’s
Stirlingshire tenants met his Lordship’s
factor at Crieff, to pay their rent; one far
mer, on reaching the place, was astonished
to find that he had lost his pocket .book,
containing £4OO in bank notes. It hap
pened that a young woman,named M Greg
or, daughtei of a pour widow, was that
morning walking to Crieff to buy some lit- j
tie finery Ur her wedding, and found the]
Docket book on the road. She attempted
to count the amount of the notes, but found
they exceeded her arithmetic, and with an
integrity, the result of her virtuous educa
tion, placed the treasure in her bosom, not
doubting she would find or bear of the
owner iu Crieff*. She was soon after over
taken by a man going to Crieff, to whom
she mentioned what had happened, and
who became very anxious to have the
pocket book in his possession, that he
might find out the owner Jane, whose’
integrity was very different from deficiency
of wisdom, firmly refused his request, and
while he was endeavoring to prevail on her,
a young farmer, whom she knew was go
ing to Crieff to pay his rent came up.—
To him she confided the pocket book and
its contents, and they journeyed to Crieff
together, where they soon found the discon
solate owner, whose loss was the subject of
general conversation. His money was re
stored, and great was his gratitude. He did
not offer the honest June, so much as the
addition of a riband to her wedding finery.
When reminded that he ought to make her
a present at hbr wedding, he replied, with
unfeeling banter “she was well off that was
going to get a man.” We regret, for the
honor ofLmrd Winder’s tenants and factor,
that Jane did not receive a farthing in ac
knowledgement of her honesty. We hope
his Lordship may hear the story.
Nf.w York, March 20.
On Thursday evening, between 10 and
11 o’clock, Mr. Geo. D Strong, assistant
alderman of the sixth ward, and James Eal •
lagh, his partner, left their store with the
intention of .returning home. Their route
lay through the “Five Points.” On ar
riving at this memoriahle spot, they found
the cwalk obstructed by a crowd, which
they attempted to pass through. Where
upon, one of the individuals accosted Mr.
Ballagh, saying, roughly, “What did you
run against me fori” Mr. B. observed, he
presumed the person did not know to whom
he was speaking. The reply to which was
a blow .from one ©f the men, who struck
Mr. B. in the eye—followed by a blow
from another of the who inflicted a
severe wound on Mr. Strang’s nose, sup
posed with a knife. The assailed party
immediately raised the cry of “watch,”
upon which the fellow made off, pursued by
the Assistant Alderman. Two of the ruf
fians turned into Little Water street, and
thence into Cross street
One of the meu was arrested yesterday
morning in the new market, in the eastern
part of the city. His name is George
Haines. lie was brought to the police
office, where he gave bail in the sum of
stooo. The names of five others of the
gang are known, and they will probably be
arrested. Haines was indentified in the
police office by Mr. Ballagh as the person
who struck him.— Gazette.
From the Baltimore American.
Removal of the Indian Tribe s. - Mr.
M’Lean, from the Committee on Indian !
Affairs, has made a ropott on this subject,
in which, after animadverting with little
praise, to the history of our relations with
this unfortunate race, he states that the
present condition of the four Southern tribes,
the Chickasaws, Choctaws, Cherokees and
Creeks, is extremely critical; and indeed,
involves their salvation or destruction.—
While they cling to their soil, some of the
states within whoso limits they are, urge
their removal, and claim meanwhile to ex
ercise over them the l ights of sovereignty,
a policy which, it is feared, would be de
structive to them, All efforts to reconcile
the parties have been unavailing; and the
committee perceive but one mode to pre
serve these tribe*; namely, to remove them
to lands beyond the limits of the states or
organized teirifories. Satisfactory accounts
have been received of the extent, fitness,
•and even desirableness of the country west
of the Mississippi, to which it is proposed
to remove them, considerable parts of which
are already possessed by their friends. It
is believed that the great body are desirous
to go, but are deterred by fear of iheir
chiefs who in tarn, are indut need by in
terested traders, who speculate in Indian
annuities
The committee reommend that the lands
upon which the Indians shall be located be
secured to them, as that, in no future time,
they may be dispossessed, or even en
croached upon; that they be paid a just
compensationfor their improvements which
’ they may abandon; that protection be af
j forded them in their new homes; and that,
Iso soon as circumstances shall admit and
require it, they- he lurnishe&jwith all the
helps necessary to form for themselves a
government of laws suited to their condition
and the means of education.
To such as prefer remaining, (of whom
there are a few) ample reservations under
proper restriction, should he given.

A Judge of ihe Drama. —A grave ma
gistrate who had,never been at a play, was
induced to go by an assurance that he would
be highly pleased with Racine’s tragedy of
Adromache. He was very attentive to the
play, which concluded with the farce of
; “The Lawyers.” JJnhis return he met
j Racine, and said with great simplicity. “I
!am much pleased, Sir, with your Andro
j mache, it is a very entertaining play; but I
jam astonished at its ending so happily. I
had, at first, some inclination to ery; But I
j could not contain myself at the scene of the
little days, and I laughed ia spite of my-
I self.”
From the New York Morning Conner.
General Hamilton . — Gen. Jacob Rtßscn
Van Rensselaer, has addressed a letter to
the Editor of the Columbia Republican,
vindicating General Hamilton from the
charge of having meditated a dissolution of
the Uniou The charge has grown out of
the controversy between Mr. Adams and
the Eastern Federalists, and is nothing hut
a matter of inference from “certain words”
attributed to Hamilton.
General Van Rensselaer details a con
versation which took place at his house in
CLverack, in the month of September,
1800, between himself, Mr. Van Scbaick,
of Kinderhook, and General Hamilton,—
In the course of this conversation, General
Hamilton expressed his conviction that ho
should receive a challengefrom Col. Burr,
and assigued the reason why be had deter
mined to accept it. He state j that his pe
culiar talent was military , that he was con
vinced that the United Stales would soon
be involved in war with some of the Great
European Powers in which eyent he hoped
to he placed at the head of the army—and
in the opinion of many, a refusal to accept
a challenge, was deemed evidence of defi
ciency in personal courage, and that the
character of a military roan should always
he above imputation or suspicion in that
respect. From the language and the argu
ments used by Gen. Hamilton, Gen. Van
-Rensselaer expresses his conviction that the
“certain words” asscribed to him could only
have reference to a probable war between
this country and England or France, and
were in no manner connected with the idea
of dissolving the Union.
General Santa Cruz, President elect of
Bolivia, and late Minister Plenipotentiary
from Peru, near the Government of Chili,
had his audience of leave of the latter on
the first of December, preparatory to hi*
departure for his place of—
General Santa Cruz, is a.man of respectable
talents, both political and military, and in
the latter capacity has performed meritori
ous services to the cause of South America,
particularly in the battle of Pichincha.—
He somewhat tarnished his name by his
ambiguous conduct in taking a place under
Bolivar, and at least, ostensibly entering
into his views. He was at the head of the
Government of Peru, at the time of the re
volution of the 27th of January, 1827, and
his measures on that occasion were consi
dered as somewhat equivocal. He is con
sidered, however, as a vary upright man,
and is much respected in private life, and
it is believed will, on taking possession of
his New Government, redeem his public
character from any stains that it may have
received. He is one of Bolivar’s Grand
Marshals, and his dispositions toward that
personage are not so well ascertained, as
the friends of South American liberty, and
of Republican Government could wish.
The moat friendly feelings do uot either
,eaist between him and President La Mar,
they having been rival candidates for the
Presidency of Peru. — R. /. Amer,

Union Hall.— The Dwarf and Pig j
faced Lady. —Yesterday morning machi
amusement was afforded in the office, ow- j
ing to the attendance of a dwarf who had;
walked through the streets, from the cara
van were he was exhibiting to Union Hall,
followed by an immense multitude, attract
ed by his diminutive and singular appear
ance. The little man slipping up to the
bar, to the top of which his dead did not
reach, addressed the magistrate, saying ’
that the object of his visit was for the pur
pose of applying for a warrant or summons 1
against a man named Stephenson, who en
gaged him to travel about in a caravan, and j
exhibit himself to the public. Ihe dwarf,
said that his name was Lipson, and pro
ceeded to describrethe fatigue and drudge
ry attendant on the life of a wan placed in
his situation, which, he declared, was any
thing i)ut an enviable one. His wages
were small, being only three shillings a
week; and for that trifling remuneration
for his services, he was obliged to be con
stantly confined in a small vehicle, with a
man and his wife, and a large family of
squalling children; and when it rained, the
water poured through the chinks of the cra
zy old caravan, and almost drowued him, to
gether with the rest of the inmates. But this
was not all the incouvenience that he was
obliged to submit to in the service of Ste
phenson, who obliged him to sit cheek by
jcuvl wkh the pig-faced lady, which he
(the dwarf) considered to be a very great
degradation, this pig-faced lady being nei-
I ther better nor worse than a shaved bear;
and Mr. Bruin, sometimes took it into his
I head to play off some very rough and un*
■ couth tricks. For instance, when he was
i seized with a hungry fit, he would not care
! what uproar he kicked up in the caravan,
! and he often and often directed his fury
against the poor dwarf on these occasions,
who has been frequently under the neces
sity of jumping out of the vehicle, to the
danger and hazzard of breaking his neck,
to escape the fury of her pig-faced Udy
; ship. With all these little misfortunes,
! however, said the dwarf, I would willingly
put up, if I was paid my wages regularly;
: but no, this has not been the case, and my
• master is now three weeks in my debt; and
when I ask him for my money, he refuses
it, and taunts me with not drawing the
public. When drawing a contrast between
•the services of the pig-faced lady and my
self, master always gives the preference to
the former, and it is rather cutting that
more attention should be paid to a hanimal
than a human cretur.
The Magistrate told the dwarf that he
must apply in the Court of Requests, and
he left the office, followed by a mob.
We find the following statement in the
Boston Gazette.
A feeble old man, (76 years of age,) poor,
though respectable, has.recemly been taken
