I , Nething is more injurious teen individdil itarethe reputation of being false to his word, or,-in other words, of being addicted to en- truth", When it is said of a citizen that <i his word is as good as his bond"! rely upon it, such a man wields a large influence in, his own community. Let a groat party fall under the just imputation of being faithless to its pledges, and it has taken a downward stop from which there is hardly any recovery. The disasters which have befallen -the Democracy since;lB66 have` resulted almost exclusively from the partially succesglbl attempt of a set of reckless men to commit its organization to a deliberate and shameless violation of, a solemn' ceivenant entered into between the North and South', and between men of all paitieS--first, in 1850, afterwards ratified by the Democracy in 1854, and subsequently in the election of,.Limas Dummies. . The conse quence has been that this abandonment of an honorable understanding has everywhere put the , Democrats upon the defensive, to their own grievous 'and almost irreparable injury. It is,, heiveVer; one of the characteristics of that party, that When convinced it has taken a flils'e stop, it hat the courage to retrace it. And tie are not without hope, from every indi cation, that the action of the General Admin istration will be repudiated by the Democratic organization, and that in a short time victory will once more perch upon the Democratic flag. ' - - Two striking 'examples may be presented to proik how entirely and inextricably the Demo cracy, North and South, have been and are committed to the principle upon which Judge Douor.Aa and his friends stand to-day—a prin ciple now so violently antagonised by Mr. Be- On1Na); and his adherents. The first is to be found in the . proceedings of a Democratic Union' meeting, held at the great saloon of the Chinese Museum, in Philadelphia, on the of February, 1810, in pursuance of a call signed by thousands, and published in the De mocratic papers. •tion. Ontraam %town was called to the chair, and opened the meeting in a characteristic ad forcible speech. He was tbilesied by Hoh. - JOHN Canwerantn, now Judge of the United States Court for the East ern District of Pennsylvania, ark one of the warmest endorsers of the President's unfortu nate policy. - A single extract from Mr. CAD vaLsna's speech will show where he stood at that time : " ire have formed this Union for notional purpo ses alone. If we limit the administrotia of its merriment to inch purposes, and do not, by going astray from them sow in our soil the seeds of die. oord and revolution ; if we do not thus ape the ill practices of those old Governmeits whose trio , ' in stitutions now tremble under the mere influence of our example; if we di) not thus complicate and enms barren the hitherto simple machinery of our arm!. aistratlie government, we will still, in time to oeme, be able to say . , that we are and win not cease to bo one nation. nut while thus a single country all to foreign nations, let us not, 1 repeal, let tuf not forget that ati among ourselves, we are many no done; and for rainy purposes are still separate in dependent 'nation,. This was tree of the original thirteen States. It is legally as true and politically more! true, of the p resent thirty States. It will hereafter be a truth of greater importance when there are more members of the association. Our ex istence as one nation,'for extra territorial purposes, depends upon our strict limitation of the functions of the united Government. If it ever felt, the blame will rest, not testi upon those who provoke, , than upon those who perpetrate its destruction. It is an abuse of the powers - of the united Government to exercise them within the new Territories, upon any principles that wouldplate settlers from any ef the p resent States upon an unequal footing with these' from other States in the establishment of the tante local institutions of the Territo ries. - • , Re Was followed by our respected and in fluential fellow-citizen, Col. Janus PAW:, who, in the course of hit speech, repudiated the action' of the Democratic State Convention of 1849; which event, guilty as it was, did not eo far transcend Democratic authority as that which was captured by the General Adminis tration, and pronounced in favor of Mr. Btr onarian's treacheries on the 16th of March, 1869. Col. PAGIC said : "The Democratic party of the State of Penn. Sylvania was pieced in a false position by this last • olases, at the Pittsburg Convention in 184 e. The Convention was called to nominate a candidate for. Canal Comathadoner; and nothing mom They were ' not authorised to eay one Word upon slavery, yet what,did this Demo:motto Convention do? Instead of nominating a candidate for Canal Commissioner and adjourning, they undertook to fasten resole dons Upon the Democratic party, upon a en sot that they had no right to speak about at all. This is no. ordinary instance in which an attempt was made to manufacture opinion for the people." Mier the speech of Colonel PAGE, he re eanv tie.-follasving diatinet, uttegV=l,l*-ivnitforel ble assertion of the very principles upon which the State-Rights Democracy of Pennsylvania stand at the present time : • "Resolved, That the Constitution of the United Slates vests in Congress no power to make laws for the people of the Territories, acquired by or an nexed to the Union, but only- to dispose of, and make needful rules anti regulations respecting, the territory or other property belonging to the Uni ted States.' - Rapine's?, That, by virtue of A natural and in. alienable right of selfgovernment, the people of the separate Tort - Herta, when politically organized, have the power of waking their own !awe, and of executing them to far as they do stet conflict with the:Conatitution and laws of the United States; and therefore• have then oz/4ns - seek the tithe to prohibit or allow slavery in such Territo ries," The following resolutions are so applicable to the new theory sought to be forced into the Democratic creed by Mr, BIJOHAVAN and the new leaders he has eleiated to command in the Democratic party, that we give them a place in our columns t " Resolved, That, in an exigency like the /re. sent, every true Democrat will - find In the Demo. undo creed, u proclaimed at Baltimore in 1848, and understood for half a century, the Rarest guide and the surest protection; and that It humus every lover of this blessed Union, and of the great party under whose administrations that U pion has prospered, to avoid all conneotion with men who contributed to our defeat in 18,48, and who nor invoke us to desert our lonreetahltshed and well tried doctrine,. "Resolved, That the gallant Demooracy who stood Arm daring the dark and trying period of the panto in 1834, when the timid faltered, and the cor rupt gaVe try, will not he easily deluded from their good old creed, by the machinations of men, elevated into prom inence by a chivalric party, and aridappinfai only 6842710 their 'nailer was not perpetuated and their ineonstateney en dorsed." The next participant in this interesting meet ing was ROBERT TYLER, Esq., chairman of the Administration State Committee, who has probably done more than any other man in Pennsylvania to make the party accept, ap prove, and endorse the abandoned course of Mr. iucerAnsw and his Cabinet in betraying solemn and repeatedly-asserted Democratic principles, and to whose persistent labors in committing the organization of the party to this betrayal we are indebted for the defeat which befel the State ticket at the last election. Let na see where this gentleman stood in 1650 on this very question. We extract from his carefully-revised 'speech, as follows. Ho is attacking the Opposition, because of their doc trine of Congressional intervention against the will of the people in the Territories, and he says: Now, gentlemen, if there was but one objection to this free-soil doctrine, the ono lam now about to state would lie fatal to it, in my opinion. It is the moat intense and most extreme Federal doc trine whichtisis ever been proclaimed in the history of this Government. It denies the foundation prin ciple of all Demooratio truth in government. It invades and destroys the very spirit which conati tutes the vitality of our system of republican States. It denies the right of man to self-govern ment. It denies the axiomatic proposition that all rightful government exists only by the consent of the governed . It mosnrains an unqualified pow er in the Congress of the United States to govern thepeople of the Territories; that Louisianians. Pennsylvanians Virginians, and Massaehu settenitn, with their colleagues, sitting in Con gressional session at Washington, have the right to, make laws—to' tax, and to govern in all re spects the 'people of California. without their consent or approbation. It raises precisely, in ci ted! the same bane that was presented in the strug gle between Greet,Britain and the American Colo nies, and takes the British side of the question. Do you know that the Wilmot proviso clothes Con gress with the power to say, that even if the people of California wanted slaves, they should not have them? Clothes Congress with the power to deny the people of the Territories anything else that they might choose 'to have, and Congress might choose to refuse them? And yet the men call them selves Democrats:, I tell you that they are Fede ralists in principle and Abolitionist/ in their mis chievous designs. [Great applatme.l And since I am not willing to abandon the Democratic patty to their guidance—eines I am not willing to trust them with the administration of this Government—slue I abOtoindte whatyott call free sollism,' that Martin Van Buren, if referred to, would confiden tially Inform you, meant only a new mode of resur reationising defunct politicians, lam present at this meeting, end most cordially agree in the pas sage of the resolutions that have been already pre seated, and which I know you will adopt with great unanimity." The following additional passage from Mr. Tuna's speech, may be, quoted against him and his official friend 4 at the present day "It U s glorious thing, indeed, to moor° power, and to enjoy the emolument and dignity of a fat aloe; but these things mud not be had at the ex- Tense of our eonntry t or at the expense of the De mocratid party :of the 'country," The hest performer on, thle stage was Mr. ViRCEND L. BRADFORD, another of the present Delay endorsers of Mr. ItuencarAN, who said g -14 'Onetorefit6is took good care to infuse into every part of the Constitution a living principle of dotnutielegislation ) and the consequence wee 'the voice of remonstrance was raised against the im• pueatton of tomer tar Congress." BBNaetssis B. Bazwgrza; Esq., was the Deßt speaker, and took very . bold and fearless ground as follows : " I say that if the Congress of the United States intends to legislate upon this subject of slavery in the new Territories, that you, when you are called upon to sustain these principles and these doctrines, you are in fact asked, in the name of liberty, to commit tyranny and. despotism, " Who should decide whether or not Maim* , or liberty, whether involuntary servitude, should es let in the new Territories? Tho man of Boston, of Now York, of Massachusetts, or of South Carolina? No. But the man who lives in California. Who should legislate for California but the °insane of California? This is only the old question between Great Britain and this country. That question arose boomise there was taxation without represent ation. What, then, would be the practical sired if we should undertake to legislate for California, for Oregon, or for Minnesota? What would be the ofs feet? Rave they representatives in the Congress that passed the law that is imposed upon them? No. Who, then, should decide but the people of the Territories? And when a Southern man stands up and says that Congress should pass a law imposing, slavery upon these Territories, then be is gelity of the same treason to the Constitution of the country, as those of the North, who would interfere in the Legislators, and say that slavery should not go there. They are both wrong. The people of this country will not permit the fanatics and the wily demagogues of either section to overthrow its sa. clod institutions. The people of this country will rise up as one man in favor of the interests of the whole country." DANIEL 'DOUGHERTY, Esq., in 1849, as in 1859, the eloquent champion of the immuta ble and immortal principles of tho Constitu tion, and the rights of the States, closed tho ball in a masterly vindication of the resolu tions of Colonel Nos. So much for the Northern position in 1850. Wo now take the solemn pledge of the State of Georgia, under the lead of HOWELL Conn, the present Secretary of the Treasury, on the 20th and 24th of February, 1854. Mr. Conn's hand is visible In all of the following resolutions. lie led, while Speaker of the House in 1850, in support of the Compromise Measures, so pointedly ex plained in the first resolution subjoined. Af ter that Congress he returned to Georgia, and finding there a determined opposition on the part of certain extrence men like Senator Ivan- BON and Governor MoDoNALD, he raised an independent flag, (like the State Rights De mocracy of Pennsylvania ' ) inscribed with the principles below set forth, and in the midst of the denunciations of his enemies, that ho had left the Democratic party, elected himself Governor on these principles, and, no doubt, prepared the platform we copy "THE STATE OF GEORGIA, IN SOLEMN CONVENTION, HAVING FIRMLY FLXED HERSELF UPON THE PRINCIPLES OF THE COMPROMISE MEASURES OP 1850, MLA TING TO THE SUBJECT OF SLAVERY IN THE TERRITORIES OF THE UNITED STATES AS A FINAL SETTLEMENT OF THE AGITA TION OF THAT QUESTION, ITS WITH DRAWAL FROM THE HALLS OP CONGRESS AND THE POLITICAL ARENA AND ITS REFERENCE TO THE PEOPLE OF THE TER RITORIES INTERESTED THEREIN $;; AND DISTINCTLY RE IN COM PROMIPE MEASURES TEECOGNISING DOCTRINE THOSE THAT IT IS NOT COMPETENT FOR CONGRESS TO IMPOSE ANT RESTRICTIONS, AS TO THE EXISTENCE OF SLAVERY AMONG THEM, UPON THE CITIZENS MOVING INTO AND SETTLING UPON= TERRITORIES OF THE UNION .ACQUIRED' OE To BE HEREAFTER ACQUIRED ; BUT THAT THE QUESTION, WHETHER SLAVERY SHALL OR SHALL NOT FORM A PART OF THEIR DOMESTIC INSTI TUTIONS IS FOR THEM ALONE TO DETER MINE FOR THEMSELVES • AND HER PRE SENT EXECUTIVE HAVING REITERATED AND AFFIRMED THE SAME FIXED POLICY IN HIS INAUGURAL ADDRESS "Be it Resolved, By the Senate and House of Representatives of Georgia in General Assembly met, that the 'Legislature of Georgia, as the repro sentatives of the people, speaking their *lll and expressing their feelings, have had their confidence strengthened In the settled determination of the great body of the Northern people to carry out in good faith those prin c iples, i n the practical appli cation of them to the bale reported by Ittr.

"And be it further Resolved, That our Sena tors in Congress be, and they ate hereby Instruct ed, and our Representatives requested, to vote for and support those principles , and use all proper means In their power for carrying them out either as applied to the government of' the Territory of Nebraska, or in any other bill for Territorial go vernment which may come before them. "Resolved further, That his Excellenoy the Go vernor be requested to transmit a oopy or these re solutions to each of our Senators and Representa tives In Congress. " Approved February 24th, 1854." "Resolved, By the Senate and House of Repro. tentative! of Georgia in General Assembly met, That opposition to the prinetplea of the Nebraska bill, in its relation to the subject of slavery, is re garded by the Legislature of Georgia ad hostility to the rights Of the South, and that all persons who partake in *uric opposition are unfit to be re cognised as .compontnt parts of any party or ganization, not hostile to the South. "Approved, February 20th, 1854." StillJ,ritent upon maintaining his fidelity to these sacred doctrinhe_womt liack_to Cour gresiriff IS6b, where he sustained them in more than one masterly speech—coming into Pennsylvania in September and October of 1856 to clinch and to confirm his overwhelming record. Unhappily for himself, and for the country, he had not the manliness to stand up for the right in lir. Bconazarr's Administra tion, but yielded to the flagrant repudiation of the same doctrines he had himself laid down. He has been a consenting party to all the vi tuperation and violence which have marked the betrayal of these doctrines by the Gone ml Administration. We might continue this catalogue if it wore necessary. Would it not be a lamentable ex hibition, if the great Democratic party, thus committed to a righteous creed, and made strong by the integrity of its course, should consent to yield to the demands of a D3W ex treme men in the South, and a few reckless men in office, and, by accepting that which is unconstitutional and unrighteous, utterly bank rupt itself, and destroy its hold upon the confi dence of the country ?

LIMERICK, Montgomery County, October 26, 184., During a residence in Philadelphia of sixteen years, I have made it a fixed rule to escape from briok-and•mortardom, some time during every-Oo tober, " When Autumn's yellow lustre gilds the world," to spend, If it was but a day, in the Clod-made country. And What a delightful episode It is thus annually to taste the rural joys of the descending year ! I left the Moo of The PreAs early yosier. day morning, and in four hours afterwards was one of a party, doing oflootive service in n corn• field, extracting the &Won oared front itg natich hash, with all tho dexterity of a professor. And euoh a day as yesterday was among the wooded hills and fortilo vales of old Montgomery ! Tho view atiorded at 3 P.

The old adage that "all the loaves fall in ()etc her," in, this season, most remarkably at fault, as, instead of thin, the forest, with trifling exceptions, still retains its foliage in midsummer luxuriance, which, having been scared by gradual frosts, pre sents in its dying a taro mono of variegated gran deur.

The card being played by the weather king to day harmonizes well with these predietione. Such a snow as this bide fair to be (it commenced falling at half past one P. M., and at 6 P.

At Musical runt', the announcement that David Paul Ilrown, Req., would deliver a lecture before the Pennsylvania Literary Institute, attracted a large and highly intelligent audienoe at the ap pointed hour. The orator made his appearance on the platform, accompanied by several members of the Institute, one of whom, the president, we be lieve, informed the audience, with becoming bre vity, that they would now hear a lecture from DAVID PAUL BROWN, ON "TOR PASSIONEt." The lecturer was received with marked applause, and entered upon hie theme with hie accustomed rhetorical graoe, using the license of the platform with almost as much freedom as in the delivery of his extempore productions, lie commenced by saying that, although be felt some little uthaustion from the duties of the former part of the day, he offered this m no apology for the defoete of hie lecture. The assuming of a duty web to him suiradent reason for ruling hie beet endeavors to discharge it properly. The holm° which followed was received with frequent ap plause, and, besides being given In moollont style, was replete with that most nnoommon of modern commodities, commonsense. The "renders and sublimity of the physical heavens, as of the dark blue ocean and lie coral cave., said the speaker, had, at name, formed fruitful topics of literature. But what were them compared with the element of mind? Man, let it ever be remembered, was an immortal being. Ms body, it was true, was "of the earth, earthy," and unto earth it must return ; but the mind was heavenly in origin, and heaven-tending in ite as pirations. flow noble in mien, how infinite In faculty was man! As it bad been divinely ex preload, he was indeed "fearfully and wonderfully made." Approaching the .more Immediate sub plat of this theme, he said that as some one faculty of the mind usually assumed pre-eminence, and gave - cnumeter to all the reel, so there we. emelty one passion of the heart or similar pro•emineace, to which all the rest were rendered tributary. These might be ambition, love, avarice, hatred, revenge, or others that were named. Before taking up the passions in detail. how ever, he hoped he would be pardoned for referring to a most pernlelotte practioe prevailing in this country—the practice of resorting to the mis called " field of honor." It was stigmatised as void of the reality. Its champions, In the main, did bat play the fool before the world. An honor that required to be purified by the blood of our fellow-man, he deemed en suspieloue, to nay the least. Hatred, revenge, vanity, rivalry for the world's admiration, were usually the mainepringe of these meetings of pretended honor. It there was wrong, said he, lot it be en dured. "Forgive, as you hope to be forgiven," was the precept he would inculcate, an by doing this the wronged one would be " heaping cosh; of fire" upon the head of his adversary. Men did not eo often fight to vindicate a ohs motor as to make one. And what was usually the character of those who resorted to the duel? Utteasily the virtue's of such could be ex pressed In a paragraph, while their' vices would fill columns. The speaker said he had never known of but one really great men falling in a duel, and he had died, with an execration of the practice upon bin lips, a happier death than was his survivor's life. The example of tho noble oMcer who, when spit upon by one who was his junior in years, coolly re plied, " Young man, could I as easily wipe your blood from my conscience an I can wipe your sa liva from my brow, I would kill you this instant ; a gentleman would not insult me, a ruffian can. not, wan commended by the speaker as worthy of the widest emulation. The recent sad affair which resolted in the death of the lamented Broderick was largo!) , dwelt upon by the lecturer; the latter doubting if the noble examples of Washington and Green were very deeply impressed upon the accessories to that tra gedy. The murderer Terry was legally delineated as a cowardly fugitive from justioe. The second part of this feature of his discourse was devoted to those acting as " seconds" in these "affairs of honors." lie had reason to believe that few duels had over been fought 'which could not have been prevented, by the seconds if they had been so disposed. In the language of the Irishman, ho believed that " If there wore no seconds there could be no firsts," at least so far as it concerned duelling. The duellist, in Mr. Brown's opinion, must, for the best Biblical reasons, bo irretrievably lost. Ile who voluntarily placed himself in a position to be shot down, and thus lost his life was none other than a enfold°, and of whose eternal salvation there was leas hope than for a murderer; fur a murderer, said be, might perhaps by repentance obtain for giveness, but the aut.:tide's lost sot was a hell deserving offence against the laws of God and ha. inanity. By the strict construction of law he, the speaker, would undertake to oonviot any man who killed another in a duel as a murderer. And yet these wore the men whose honer was so chivalrous and uncontrollable ; Apologizing for this rather protracted episode, to which the greater part of an hour was devoted, he promised now to return to the more legitimate subjeot of his discourse. A sudden overthrow of any one of the ruling passions always either re. suited in insanity or temporary mental derange. ment. These effects would, of course, be modified by the degree of violence with which this over throw wee effected. The ruling passion exorcised sovereign control, and in death was the last to leave us. Speaking of the relative quality of pas sions, he said that virtue might have its present suf (cringe, as vice has; but virtue had a future of happiness which vice bad not. To our passions, reason was generally subservient, rather than con trolling. Pride, avarice, hatred, and remorse, were characterized as downward in their tondenoy, and thus directly the opposite of those which elevate and ennoble, of which he was now about to speak, and ,every ono of which, in all its various phases, was agitated every hour upon the world's great stage, amid its myriads of actors. Of all the higher passions dwelt upon, that of parental love was characterized as the noblest and most heavenly; that love which a father felt for his daughter, a mother for her eon. This was pure, and unalloyed with vice, being above all selfishness. It seemed to be akin to that Divine love which had stooped from heaven to earth to rescue men from eternal death. The grave hallowed it, but could not de stroy it. It was the tenderest, the most watchful, and most devoted of all loves. How glorious and how redolent wore the records of (line with Instances of parental saerifloas to this heavenly passion! Numerous thrilling In stances of which wore given in illustration by the opeaker. But, as another literary entertainment demands a line, we must leave Mr. Brown and "The revi sions," and turn our attention for a moment to Concert when a characteristically brilliant lecture was delivered last evening by GEO. W. CURTIS, OY " GOLD AND GILT IN YOUNG Autruce." This was the second of this season's splendid course of lectures before the People's Literary In stitute, and in everything that could reflect credit upon he management was a great success. Concert Hall was completely filled, including the boxes and galleries, with a very flattering audience in more than merely a numerical aspect, In our limited space, and at the hour at which we write, we shall not attempt oven a synopsis of the lecture itself, but may state that it was received with marked demonstrations of approval by the audience. As wo supposed• from the nature of the subject, it afforded aline field for tho lecturer's polished satire and Irresistible humor. Young America was most unmercifully dissected, and the gilded shams un• der Which it swells and swaggers were invested with a ridiculousness that was tolling in the ex- treme. Every phase of society—the theatre, the political arena, the hotel, and everything else—was ransacked with an unsparing band to expose the " gilt ; " but we are happy to say that he did not conclude his lecture Without, in fitting tonne, al luding to the real metal—the gold—of a " Young Maarten" that deserves the name, in the course of which the past of the Old World and the _future of the Now were contrasted with masterly skill, Mr. Curtis's lecture, upon the whole, last evening, was among the most unexceptionable he has yet de livered In this atty.

The law against ititvising with a stave to produce an insurrection pun ishes the offence with death.

All these chance wouldbe distinctly proven beyond the possibility of doubt on the mod of Jhelum The Commonwealth would show that the prisoner's whole oldest was to rob our citizens of their slaves and carry them olf by violence, and, ho woe happy tO lan against the wile of the elavea—all of them Having escaped and rushed back to tair masters on the first opportunity, lie oonoluded by urging the jury to cant aside all prejudices; to give the prison ers a fair and impartial trod ; not to allow their hatred of Abolitionism to influence them against those who have raised the block Hag on the nail of Ibis Commonwealth. SPY.ECII OF MR. GREEN COUNSEL FOII TIM PRIdOPILIt. Mr. Green, on the part of the priaono r. gave the law applicable to the case. He reminded the jury that they are the judges et the law and tact; and if tney have any doubts as to tne law and fact ot. the guilt of thisprieo ner, they are to give the prisoner the benefit of that doubt. The first charge of treason—ns a epecitio ant of treason—mutt be proven. It must be proven that ha attempted to establish a separate and distinct government t and it must also he proven vi lint was the purpose of the treasonable nets before ton can convict him on these charges.

If done within the limits of the armory at 11arper'e Ferry, it was not done within the Jurisdiction of this State—the Government of the United mates holding Jurisdiction exclusively within Gianni grounds. Attotney General Cushing had decided this point with regard to the armory grounds at Ilarper's Ferry; which opinion was read to the Jury, showing that persons re siding within the limits tit the armory caxnot even Iss ti y i m m taxed b Virginia, and that crime emulated within the 'lei limits are punishable by the Federal courts, And I the Jury may h a te a doubt about the law on this su Ject, they must give the prisoner the benefit of that doubt. • Upon the last count, that of murder, lf the crime was committed 'within the !units of the armory, Una court haa noyurisdietion; mut as in the mule of Beckham, It it wee committed on the railroad bridge it was committed Within the State ot Maryland which State claiMejUnildle lineup tothe armory grounds.

Mr. Botts impressively addressed the yury, saying that the oise before then I was an unusual one, and in many resew:its nob as has helms Seen unknown. It was a jury trlal,calling for calm, unimpassioned deliberation; and not seizing upon loose statements to induce a con viction, the Jury must be morally above all prejudices and influenoea, and deliberate calmly free of all resent ment, bearing in mind that the mission of the law in pot to wrenk vengeance, and that the majesty of the law is best maintained when Judos, counter'', and Jury rice above these influences.

Botts, in review inn the law haute% on the case, evinced ft determination to avail honvelf of every ad vantage that the law allows, and to do his duty to the priernier earnestly and talthfully, It was due to the prisoner to state that ne believed himself to be actuated by the highest and noblest thelin4e that ever eoureed through a human breast.
