We are proud of our elder liar, and (lud It in our heart to wish tlnt foolbdi people and pawdon serving editors would leave the mutter In their hand®—where wisdom nnd legal knowledge w ill be all lufllclent. There seems to be a determination to make the Invoetlgatlon a eauscof sectional disturbance, on the part or our colcniperu ry and others. We hope the serious people will pay no heed to the loolisb ravings ol scetarys They are inspired by no good thought or desire, or power The defence of our attainted citizens cannot lie assisted by any such Weudull I‘liillip's style of urgu inent, and Its only etfeet must be to exun* pi rate feelings against um. Hut, it Is sug gos ted, that this is tlie object of such publications and utterances? Perhaps, We hitvc no means of knowing, hut we aie hound to say that appearances point to such conclusion. We are sure, however, that ottr people desire a full, free, and thorough investigation, for the more gh> rious vindication of those gentlemen who arc under arrest, believing them to be in nneent, and it is desired that nwlldug should he said or done to Interfere with such investigation. As above stated, we have not seen uny direct evidence, tend ing to criminate n sing'e person now under arrest. In reference to our I'rloud, Mr. Constable Smith's ease, wo have only this to say. It looking though parties are interested in having him and others, do questionable nets, in order to tiring on a sort of collision between the Federal ami Stale authorities This is the kernel in Hint nut. and there fore wo etui well retrain from heated com ment. The least question is another mutter, on which we hold ourselves Incompetent to speak with authority, llul lids we must say To ruise questions before a commis sioner, who is not a lawyer, sud then give him thunder mid lightning for not settling llieui in accordant’* with the statute in such case luudo and provided, I* ploying moot court, and makes u* ashamed of all concerned. It only shows that lire honroabic and sublime Mr. lluucoiulie is attorney for the defendants, and It Milords intemperate people and newspapers nn opportunity to tell the world what they do not know ale tut common law nnd common '■eiP-o. i.oois as ii . There will, doubtless, l>o bogus tickets bunded about—keep your eyes open, lie sure that the ticket you rote is a piece of ir/iift paper, with no device w hatever on it. not even the mime of tlie ticket —such as, for example, "Liberal ltepubllcan,” or "National Democratic." The names for President and Vice President will not ap pear on the true tteket —only the Elector* names. Look well to this. The following is the ticket as it should lie voted.
