News of-Literature.
Two reprints of "My Diary North and South,t ,
by William Howard Russell, of The Times, have ap
peared. One, a limo volume, In cloth, published by
T. O. H. P. Burnham, Boston : the other, an octavo,
printed in double columns, in paper cover, by Hai
pet& Brothers, New York. The latter hes a portrait
of the author as a frontispiece. According as the
work is required for the book-shelf or the parlor
table, the higher or the lower-priced edition will suit.
Of Mr. Russell's book we shall only say, hero and
now, that his Diary, though evidently written with
a view to book-making, is pleasanter reading than
his letters in The Times were. Self-conceit is evi
dent throughout, but there Is also a degree of shrewd
ness and candor which his letters do not exhibit. On
Mr. Russell's showing. the South must be a bad
place, peopled with bad people. The book, from its
impartial hits all round, and its author's Impertinent
disclosure of private conversations and confidences,
will have a great many readers. We do not find
that the English critics, who so much condemned
N. P. \Vilna' revelations of private society at Lady
illessington's, have yet breathed one word of virtu
ous indignation against Mr. Russell's similar
breaches of confidence. What was a great offence
in the American BMUS to be a recommendation of
the Anglo-Hibernian writer.
" Verner's Pride," produced by T. B. Peterson
from proof-sheets received from Mrs. H. Wood, a
month ahead of its appearance In book form in Lon
don, has already gone into a second edition.
Respecting "Aurora Floyd," by Miss M. E.
Braddon, there is a difficulty between two of our
publishers. Peterson announced it some months
ago and lately brought tt out, but the Harpers im
mediately produced a considerably cheaper reprint.
The etiquette of the trade, we believe, ought have
left the book to him who first announced it—pro•
vtded the other publisher was aware of the annouce
ment. The result of this double printing will be
that the American publisher, to secure priority, will
have to purchase advance-sheets from the author—
as Peterson has done with " Vernees Pride," and
others of Mrs. IL Wood's Isaias.
"Lady Aualley's Secret," also by Miss M. E.
Braddon, has been published, as a neat octavo vo
lume, by Dick & Fitzgerald, New York, who an
nounce several other works, by the same author.
The plot is full of single Interest, without being in
terrupted by any episode. The characters are few,
but thoroughly individualized, and the skill with
which the author has worked from the edge Into the
heart of the fearful mystery is wonderful—especially
as the author is very young. The "secret" itself,'
truth to say, is not of very great importance, except
as it furnishes the key to the heroine's actions;
which would otherwise seem to unser: . her. The
book is on sale by Peterson & Brothers.
From J. B. Lippincott S.r. Co. we have, among se
veral of Harpers' publications, above mentioned,
Charles Lever's new novel, "The Barringtons."
The scene is partly in Ireland, partly on the Conti
net, and many of the characters are Irish—so, too,
are the local coloring nod the incidents. There is
nothing in the story as good as some of the fun of
"Charles O'Malley," but it is such a tale of Irish
life and Irish character as none but Lever could
have written.
Sheldon & Co., New York, have published" David
Copper held," in four volumes, as a further instal
ment of their beautiful Household Edition of Dick
ens. Printed on laid paper at the Riverside Press,
neatly bound, and enriched with three engravings
on steel from original designs by Darley and one by
John Gilbert, of London, this is a charming set of
books, The interest of the story may be enhanced
by the reader's knowing that in it Dickens is be
lieved to have partly told the tale ofhis own rise as
a writer, that his friend Judge Talfouni, and his
own father, Jelin • Dickens, are respectively said to
have been the originals of Traddles and Micawber.

TEE ADVENTURES'' Or A DESERTER
'ROW VIE REBEL SEnvwx.—Yesterday afternoon
Mr. George Rosa visited our office, and detailed his
experience on board the rebel privateers Sumpter
and Alabama. He arrived in this city on Saturday,
having deserted from the Alabama in one of the
West India islands. At the breaking out of the
rebellion he was living in New Orleans, and being a
sailor was impressed into the rebel marine service.
Re was put onboard the Sumpter and ran the block
ade on the 30th of June, 1861, and reached Cienfuegos
after successfully evading the United States vessel
lirooklyn. While Ross was a passenger, the Sump
ter made numerous captures, including the Joseph
Tflaxwell of Philadelphia; the Rocket, of Bangor,
the Daniel Trowbridge, and others. The Sumpter
arrived at Cadiz, Spain, on the '7th Jan., 18ea, and on
the 10th Roes deserted, along with eight others of
the crew. They applied to the American consul at
that point for protection, and he sent them to Li
verpool. He then shipped for Quebec, and thence
again to Liverpool, and back again to New York.
He then sailed from New York for Lisbon in the
brig Dunkirk, when he was captured, on the '7th of
October, by the Alabama. The veusel was burned,
and on the same night he was recognized as a de
serter from the Sumpter. He was put in double
Irons and chained for one day and a night. He was'
tried by a court martial and was found guilty of
desertion. He was sentenced to be kept aboard the
vessel until the close of the war, without wages,
prize money, or liberty. Captain Julius, of the
Tonawanda, was present when Mr. Rosa was un
dergoing punishment that vessel having just been
captured. He was hoisted on the rigging, two hours
up and two hours down, night and day, for three
H
days and two nights. e was afterwards taken
down from the rigging and chained. He afterwards
witnessed the burning of the Manchester.
The Alabama proeee,ded to Martinique, and re
mined there two days, and while there the San
Jacinto came In. The night before the San Jacinto
arrived, the sailors were presented with a quantity
of whisky. They got drunk, and there was a gene
ral row, and Ross was oonfined in irons again,
as having been the ringleader of the row. A day
or two afterwards the Alabama left, and evaded the
San Jacinto. She then went to the Isle of Blanco,
where Mr. Ross escaped by going ashore stealthily.
He then mailed to alarquerlk, and from thence in a
Spanish schooner to St. Kitts. After that he en
gaged as a sailor on the Thomas Walter, for Phila
delphia, and reached here on Saturday evening. He
describes his treatment as of the most inhuman
character, and gives the assurance that the sailors
on board the AlaDama are greatly dissatisfied, and
often exhibit signs of mutiny.
FREEZElL—Yesterdity. was decidedly
the coldest day of the season, the thermometer rang
ing from six in the morning until three in the after
noon, from ten to thirteen degrees, It was 'a very
delightful time for those who liked it. The pave
ments wale alive.. The skies were of the most bril
liant and pellucid blue and thin atmosphere invigo
rating in the extreme. The streets were alive with
men, women, and children. The prevailing color
was red and purple—purple as to the noses, red as to
The ears. There were scantily-clad little children,
uhojuniped themselves into a comfortable degree of
heat, and mutiled-up old. men and women, shivering
in limb and body, frozen in the face and feet; yet
everybody looktli as comfortable as could be expect
ed under these trying circumstances. It is scarcely
necessary to remark that hot whisky-punch (so we
are informed) was the prevailing drink, and that
steaming vegetable soup was in demand at dinner
time. Lovely iv, perhaps, too warm an epithet to
apply to the titre nights we are now enjoying. The
heavens areas serene and unobscured as they are
cold. If it were only summer-time and the same
unclouded beaut y prevailed, moonlight walks would
assuredly be ail the go.
WARR/CC:TS FOR EXTRA. SERVICES.—The
City Controller still refuses to sign the warrants of,
the clerks end messengers of Councils, drawn to ac
cordance with au ordinance, for" extra services.' , It
will be reinembei at that the ordinance was vetoed
by the Mayor, hut the veto Is not recognized by
Common Council, as it was sent to Mr. Trego as
president. The Mayor, as we stated the other day,
has written to the City Controller, Instructing him to
withhold his counter signature from the warrants.
The Mayor writes to the Controller that his veto is
entirely valid, and that the warrants have not been
drawn in accordance with law. The message and
bill were returned, says the Mayor, in due time and
in the ordinary mode to the appropriate chamber at
A stated meeting of the Common Council, and ad
dressed to that budy, and; therefore, read In the pre
sence of the gentleman since declared by the Su
preme Count to be the lawful presiding officer of

TILE AGRICULTURAL SOCIETT.—tI stated
meeting of the Philadelphia Society for Promoting
Agriculture was held yesterday morning. No busi
ness of a general interest was transacted. Dr.
Kennedy presented to the society a framed photo
graph of the short-horned bull which had taken the
prize at the Internatiorel Agricultural Exhibition,
held last year near Paris. The photograph was by
Eichebourg, of that city, who had sought to over
come the great difficulty which artists found in
photographing animals, arising from a change of
position while the sensitive plate was being intro
duced into the camera. This application of photo
gaphy was becoming general in Europe, and Dr.
Kennedy said that the engraved plates of animals
got up here by interested parties were too often
caricatures. Acknowledgment was made of &ma
tions received, and the Society soon after adjourned.

THE POLICE.
(Before Mr. Alderman Battler.)
Serlops Charge against a Colonel.
Colonel Herman Segebarth, of the 152 d Regiment
(Pennsylvania 3d Heavy Artillery), was arraigned
before Alderman Beitler, at the Central Station,
yesterday afternoon, on the "oath of Frederick J.
Bancroft, surgeon of the 1521 Regiment P. V., with
fraudulently signing the name of one Udall J.
Bomberger upon the back of a warrant on the trea
surer of the city of Philadelphia, number 8,033,
dated December, 1862, for $2OO, well knowing that
the said Bomberger was dead, with intent to de
fraud the said city and the representatives of the
said decedent; also, with fraudulently and falsely
affixing the names of David Griffith, John ilagniller,
Henry K. Holmes, John D. James, James M. Gibbs :
Joseph Edger, and other soldiers of said regiment,
to warrants on the said treasurer, in their respective
names, and obtaining thereby various sums of
money, which he has feloniously converted to his
own use."
F. Carroll Brewster, the City Solicitor, and Lewis
C. Cassidy, Esq., appeared as counsel for the prose
cution. Amos Briggs, Esq., for the defence. The
investigation of the case progressed as follows :
F. T. Bancroft, on being sworn, testified as fol
lows : I am the surgeon of the 162 d Regiment Penn
sylvania Volunteers ; when at home I reside in Lu
serrie county ; I knew Uriah 5. Bomberger; he was
A sergeant in Co. H, of the regiment ; he is dead.
he died on the 14th of December, 186;2; I attended
him in his last sickness ; I have no doubt of his
death ; I saw his body after death ; I Jaw him die;
he was burled at Lebanon, Pennsylvania, his body
having been sent to his parents; his body was laid
out by my nurses of the camp.
. No crossesamination.
S. C. Dorson sworn.—l am clerk of the Bounty
Fund Committee—a warrant for $5O was here handed
to the witness, who continued—this warrant was is
sued by one of our clerks on December 27, 1602; it
was delivered to Col. Segebarth ; I have his receipt
for it; I delivered the warrant to him myself; there
are a large number of warrants besides this one.,
Croce-examined.—l also delivered warrants to
Capt. , Blake and Capt. Mark ; we invariably deliver
the $59 bounty warrants to commissioned officers;
we generally give the $2OO warrants to the men in
the presence of a commissioned officer; the $6O war
rant shown me was delivered to Col. Segebarth, as
he is a commissioned officer.
Dr. James McClintock sworn.—l am the treasurer
of the city of Philadelphia ; this warrant (warrant
here shown) has all the marks upon it as having
been paid; I have no doubt about its being paid; I
cannot say to whom the amount was paid - I have
some acquaintance with Colonel Segebarth; have
seen him frequently at my office on business; the
warrants are paid by my clerks ; Colonel Kline is
my paying clerk; when he is absent Mr. Kramer
acts in his place.
Cross-examined.—l did not pay the warrant
myself ; it has all the evidence of having been paid ;
1 don't know that Colonel Segebarth presented it
for payment; I am somewhat slightly acquainted
with the colonel's hand-writing, having received one
or two notes from him ; I don't know that I am
sufficiently acquainted with chirography to say
'much about it; this writing on the warrant does not
resemble the writing in hialetters or notes to me ; if
he wrote the notes I should not think he wrote this ;
if he wrote this, I should infer that he did not write
the notes.
Harriaon G. Clark sworn.—The warrant being
shown to witness, heteatified as follows: I received
this warrant from Mr. Kramer at the city treasu
rers office; also this entire bundle of warrants, for
which I have given my receipt.
Question by Mr. Brewster.—Mr. Clerk, had you
any conversation with the defendant rif so, be
kind enough to state what it was.
Witness.—Yes, sir. I had some conversation
with the defendant in regard to this and other mat
ters ; he said he handed this warrant to Captain
Rank ; the writing is that of Captain Rank ;
we had two other warrants—that of Henry H.
Holmes and John D. James—which defendant
paid; these were-two hundred dollars, numbered
8,100 and 8 , 104; the defendant admitted that he had
signed these warrants, and that he had drawn the
money, and that he only intended to hold it until
the men got into service, because the men; on getting
their money, would desert.
Cross-examined.—The defendant said he had the
authority of some of the men to draw their money ;
The did not say that he had the authority of those
men, (Holmes and James) ; when he explained the
reason why he withheld the money of these men,
and paid the amount over, he was discharged from
custody.
Mr. Dorson recalled.—The 'warrants, 8,103,
(1101thes,) and 8,104, (James,) were paid to Colonel
Segebarth ; he receipted for them, and here it is ;
(warrant book shown.)
Surgeon Bancroft recalled.—l keep a roll of the re
giment ; when a man dies I report the circumstance to
the catain of the comnany, and he reports to the
colonel; the colonel must have known of the death
of Bomberger on the morning of the 15th of De
cember.
Rc-cross-examined.---I reported the death of Bom
berger to Captain Rank • I do not know of my own
knowledge that hereported the death to the colonel;
I don't know the signature of Captain Rank.
Mr. Cassidy here made a request that the magis
trate call over the names of the soldiers who were
witnesses at the other hearing.
The alderman called David Griffiths. No an
swer.
•
Question by Mr. Cassidy, "Where to hel"
Witness. "He was sent to Fort Delaware by or
der of General Montgomery."
James Holmes was called; the witness responded
he was "sent to Fort Delaware also."
. James M. Gibbs was called, and the witness re
plied he was "sent to Luzerne county." Joseph
lieigeewas called, and the witness responded he was
" sent to Fort Delaware."
question by Mr. Cassidy. Can you inform us,
sus gcon, why they were sent to Fort Delaware I
Witness. For mutiny, at least they were charged
with mutiny, in consequence of getting liquor; so
far as James Griffith and Holmes are concerned; I
will say they were my hospital nurses, and they
should not have been reported; they certainly were
not guilty of any mutinous conduct ; they, with the
mayor, simply went to subdue the difficulty.
erosereimffined.—l proceeded to General Mont
gomery, in order to have them detained here as wit
nesses; he said I must have a written order 'to this
effect from Col. Segebarth ; I spoke to the major
about it, and he said that an order from Col. Ruff
would be sufficient ; I asked Col. Segebarth for. the
order, and he replied "they will have to go ;" there
was no allegation made that the names of these men
were forged; I not only wanted them as witnesses,
but as nurses.
Cross-examined.—These men told me their names
had been forged, and that they had not received their
money ; I mean Holmes and James; they have since
received the money; I cannot tell whether the
whole regiment has been paid their bounty money
or not ; I have heard of several who have not been
paid F. ill. Cannon had not been paid up to this
morning; he had received his $5O.
The counsel for the defence here exhibited a re
ceiptlng roll, and said it contained the receipt of Mr.
Cannon for $2OO. The receipt was here shown,
whereupon
Mr. Briggs said : "Now bring him up for your
witness."
Mr. Cassidy. "Oh ! that might be done."
Dlr. Brewster. "Perhaps he might be a Cannon
that may go otf."
Mr. Cassidy. "Quite likely—to Fort Delaware."
The evidence here closed, and Mr. Brewster asked
that the defendant be bound over to answer at
Court.
Mr. Brlegs 'replied, and said that his client had
done nothing wrong. If he is guilty, then there is
not a colonel in the army that micht not be arrested,
tor icy defendant has not travellid out of the usual
course of proeekl Mg.
Alderman Witter responded, that he considered
there was strong probable cause to -warrant the
sending of the case to court. The defendant will be
required to enter bail in the sum of $5,000 to answer.
A commitment was made •out and placed In the
hands of• High Constable Clark. They retired from

Disorderly House. • •••••
• William llohland was arraigned before the alder
man yesterday on the charge of keeping a dieorderlY
house on Fifth dtreet, above Spruce. He was er•
rested on the oath of Mr. J. Smith, who happened
to be there on Tuesday night. The place or en
trance appears to be a sort of green grocery shop.
The interior appears to he like a couple of houses
knocked into one. It is fitted up in a pretty com
fortable manner. It is alleged that a considerable
number of girls who attend lager-beer concert sa
loons are in the nightly habit of visiting this house,
taking with them such of the audience from the dif
ferent saloons as might choose to go there. It is
even said that men, young and middle-aged Riegle
nod married, have been in the habit of paying fre
quent visits to the place. At the hearing yesterday,
eight or nine girls,most of whom go around among
the lager•beer concert audiences, were arraigned.
The 'developments of the case are revolting to the
reitned feelings of morality. The girls averaged in
agWabout 14 or 16 years ; their chief desire seemed
to be, fine feathers and tine dresses, no tnatter even
if at the cost of virtue. They were held to bail to
be of future good behavior. The alleged proprietor
was held to answer at court.
LEGAL INTELLIGENCE.
Supreme Court of Pennsylvania at Nisi

TIM CASE OF "THE .lEFFEROSONIAN" IVEWSFATER
SEIZURE-/TIFOIZTA'ET CHARGE FROM THE CHIEF
JUSTICE OF TUE SUPREME COURT.
William Hodgson vs. 'William Miliward et at. An
action of trespass to recover damages for the seizure
of The Jeffersonian, a weekly newspaper, published at
'West Chester, by the defendants, the United States
marshal of this district and his 'deputies, under an
order issued by United States District Attorney
George A. Coffey. Before reported. The argument
of counsel in this case occupied the entire morning
session of the court, and the charge of the court was
not delivered until just before the hour of adjourn
ment. It is as follows :
02EM
It is not at all strange that, in times of national
crisis, and of national and popular disturbance and
excitement, we find ourselves forced to revert to
first principles in the discussion of cases which, in
ordinary times and arising among ordinary persons,
could be disposed of with accuracy and despatch by
a simple justice of the peace. This caee is one of
that character. We should not think of granting it
anything ut the most summary treatment, were it
not that it grows out of the very natural excitement
that overspread the country on the breaking out of
the present rebellion, and that the actors in it are
important officers of the Federal Government, who
claim to have acted under the authority of a law of
Congress and under the special authority of the
President of the United States, and in support of
the Constitution and laws, and of the safety and
integrity of the Union.
These circumstances are quite unusual in an ac
tion of trespass for taking the property of a citizen,
and they seem to us to justify the parties in expect
ing for the case a more than ordinary degree of con
sideration. So far. as the case is ordinary it deserves
only an ordinary consideration ; but so far as it in
volves circumstances that are unusual and extraor
dinary, it deserves something more. Let us con
sider how far these extraordinary circumstances
affect the case or the law that is to be applied toit.
The rebellion is the first extrannlinftry element in
this case ; but no one can pretend that our law was
changed by the mere fact of the rebellion, so far
as it relates to the rights that now claim to be vindi
cated by us. No doubt that rebellion gave rise
to an immense popular excitement—that was quite '
natural, and inevitable; we should be more or less
than men If it had not arisen. No doubt, also. that
excitement gave rise to great popular mistrust and
suspicion towards all who seemed to oppose or dis
courage its great purpose of crushing the rebellion;
this, also, was quite natural and inevitable. A very
earnest loyalty is quite liable to run to an extreme
that is a strain upon the law. No doubt, also, this
distrust would soon be visited upon those who, for
any reason, should seriously question the moat sum
mary plans for suppressing the rebellion, for when
people are excited they are sure to be impatient, and
censorious of all plans that do not seem to them
to promise the most speedy and summary success.
We are not, in such circumstances, prepared to sub
mit to the control of the law of the land, and to
those mutual concessions to general opinion tha tare
essential to har monious social action, and our dis
trusts and suspicions are very apt to breed discord
among us; and we ought to expect this, and to know
how to meet it consistently with social order. But
we do not. By a natural law of such occasions,
suspicions, slanders, oppressions, and violence are
sure to arise—and many things are said and done
which the law of the land forbids, and which, under
other circumstances, sound morality would con
demn, though a liberal charitymight overlook them.
But none of these circumstances can at all change
the Constitution or laws of the land. The very pur
pose of law is to set a rule that shall remain fixed
and immovable among the disturbances of society,
and that shall be the standard for judging them.
Law does change in adaptation to the growth of a
pedybe, but if it adapted itself to all their excitements
it would cease to be law. It is the quiet and steady
rule by which all acts are to be judged; and all rights
vindicated ' • and if we hold that rule with a firm
hand, that trembles not with the excitements that
prevail around-it, we shell have no difficulty in mea
suring the rights that are submitted to our judg
ment. It is the firm, unending rule of sober BO
dal thought, and of the common senseorquiet times,
and by its standard all civil affairs must be judged,
whether they fall below it or profess to rise above
it. If It yielded to excitements it would bejudgetkby
them, instead of being theirjudge.
The next important element in this cause is the
alleged fact that the act complained of was authorized •
by the President of the United States, and was exe
cuted by important Federal officers. But this element
loses all its legal importance when we consider that
all public functionaries in this land are nurder law,
and that none, from the highest to the lowest, are
above it. They, as well as we, are under the Con
stitution and laws of the United States, and sworn
to support, protect, and delend them, or take them
as their rule of civil and official conduct, and they
and we are to be judged by them in our civil and of
conduct in all appropriate eases. The acts of
the President and of his subordinates are, therefore, .
without right, unless they are authorized by sonic
article of the Constitution, or of the laws made under
it, and consistent with it. Re can make no laws that
can vest in him any new authority, or that can pro
tect those who obey his unauthorized orders. lie
would not claim that he could.
Let us concede the maxim that circumstances
alter cases, and even the law that governs cases ; but
let us not be misled by It. In a certain sense, the
law of self-defence changes according to the violence
and nature of the attack or the danger ,• that is, the
law allows self-delence, and allows that it shall
be so conducted that it shall be adequate to the
emergency, according to the best judgment of the.
person attacked ; and thus it sanctions acts that,
under other circumstances, it would condemn. But
then it never leaves it to any one to judge finally
for himself when the right of self-defence arises, or
when the danger is such that the attack of self
detence may begin. The law of the land alone can
settle that. He who enforces rights without the aid
of law, must both prove that he has such rights by
law, anti that they are exposed to n danger that
cannot safely, await the regular forms of legal pro
cess. A man who is caught committing theft, bur
glary, murder, and such /Ike, may lie arrested by
any one without legal process, because of the emer
gency ; but then he must be immediately taken be
fore some competent authority, where he may be
placed in the regular road to a speedy trial, and to
justify the arrest the crime charged must be proved.
We shall have sonic use of these thoughts here
after ; but the rise I want to make of them now is
this : The Federal and State Constitutions place
the Government under just such restrictions as •
these : It tells the Government how it shall proceed
in defending society anti the social organism against
all the forms of violence, disorder, and danger to
which society is exposed. It puts all its func
tionaries under law, so that they shall not invade
the order of society, by taking their own forms and
modes of protecting it. When they act without
law, they mustjustifythemselves before the law by
showing an emergency that demands their act. If
it be not so, then they are above law, and not under
it. If they may irresponsibly declare the existence
of the emergency, and also the acts which it de
mands of them, then, as to them, we have neither
Constitution nor laws. Our Constitution was
framed when the remembrance of the excitements,.
suspicions, divisions, disloyalty, and treasons of the
Revolution were yet fresh In the minds ()four states-
Inert, and under the light of all its experience, and
they left no gap in it to be sunplied by the fears
or suspicions of excited times. It is still a sufficient
rule of practice for our Government, and it, better
than anything else, embodies the settled and sober
thought of this people. When we depart from it
we expose ourselves to the rule of force, and to in
calculable divisions of opinion, of counsels, and of
action.
And now it is proper for me to say that I see no
sufficient evidence that the President of the United
States authorized the seizure complained of here.
I think it entirely improbable that he did. The Dia
trict Attorney thinks his despatch came from some
one in the War Departmeht This is no evidence of
an order from- the President, and that element is,
therefore, entirely out of the case.
,And-all these elements being removed, the case
becomes the very common one in which it is alleged
that a public officer has seized the goods of a citi
zen without proper warrant. It is common agiinst
both Federal and State officers. We havehad many
of them. On an Order issued by the District Attor
ney, the defendants, the marshal and his deputies,
seized upon the office of the plaintiff's newspaper,
called the Jeffersonian and on all its contents, for
some supposed violation of law, and afterwards the
property was proceeded against for forfeiture in the
United States Court, and was soon abandoned by the
District Attorney, and a decree was entered in favor
of the defendant there, the plaintiff here.
No cause of forfeiture is shown here. The defen
dants rely entirely on the order of the District At
torney, and on the decree of the Circuit Court for
their defence. But the plaintiff here was potbound
to demand his damages in that action, and may sue
for them in this form ; and, therefore, there is only
one ground of defence that needs any special con
sideration. Do the defendants show a warrant is
sued in proper form by competent authority, that
shelters them from responsibility for the act done 1
What the law requires in order to justify such an
act is written in the Constitution, Art. 4 of the
Amendments: "The right of the people to be se
cure in their persons, houses, paper'', and effects,
against unreasonable searches and seizures. shall
not be violated, and no warrant shall issue but upon
probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation,
and particularly describing the place to be searched,
and the person or ,things to be seized." A similar
law is written in all our State Constitutions, and it
is simply the written expression of the unwritten
or customary law of the •people, known to every
body, descended through a long line of ancestry
and of • popular disturbances, and recognized by
everybody in times when a quiet reason holds the
control of the passions.
Another law is to be connected with this one in
order that it may be seen howsuch warrants .are to
issue. It also is written in ,the Constitution,
where it vests all judicial power in the courts estab
lished by Jaw, and requires that no man shall be de
prived of life, liberty, or property, except by due
process of law. This makes the courts the only au
thority whence any process can issue for the trial of
rights or wrongs. Warrants properly issued by them
are a shield to the officer who executes them. War
rants issued by others have no further authority
than is contained in the emergency _on which they
are founded. -If the circumstances—the pressing na
ture of the emergency—justify the act, they justify
the warrant, but not otherwise. It is not usual to
call such orders warrants, and they are not properly*
so called. They are merely oaten of a superior to a
Subordinate officer to do a special duty which usually
he ought to do without such order.
When a great conflagration or a violent mob is
raging, or a vessel is attempting to transgress the
revenue laws or the. laws of war, and to escape,
there Is no time for warrants, and the necessary work
must be done without them. But then it is always
done under responsibility to law through the courts'
of justice. If the occasion and the law of the land
justify what is done, then the want of a warrant is
excused.
We understand now the case we have before us.
The defendants had no such warrant as is required
,by the Constitution. It was an order or "request,"
not issued by any judicial officer, and was not
founded on. the oath of any one, and there is no pre
tence that any such violent outrage on social order
had been committed and no such pressing and ur
gent emergency existed as to justify the seizure
without warrant, and therefore no justification is
made out.
There is nothing in the act of Congress of the 6th
of. August, 1861, that justifies it. It requires the
President, in certain eases, to cause certain property
• "to be seized, confiscated, and condemned ;" but
this means by due process of law. It is not to be
done by the President himself, but by due process of
law by the proper functionaries, and he is to see that
they do their duty. These .defendants undertook to
do this act without warrant, and without any pro
per occasion shown to us, end therefore they are
mere trespassers. They are trespassers from the
beglnnine to the end; and the first step in the matter
being unjustified, no subsequent and unsuccessful
proceeding under the act of 1861 can shelter them
from liability for compensation. They would have
been liable for a malicious prosecution without pro
bable cause, if the act had been under a' writ aPPEt -
Jently Valid. The plaintiff is entitled to full com
pensation for all that he has lost by this act. •
Is the plaintiff* entitled to exemplarydamagest
Yes, in so far as their-net was inspired by mere wan
toupees: But exemplary or punitive damages are
usually allowed rather for the moral than for the
• legal wrong that accompanies such acts. For the le
gal wrong, compensation is the measure of redress:
For,fhe,moralarrong, the recklessness of the act,
the Personal malice with which it is done, the vio
lence and outrage attending it for this you are au
thorized to allow exemplary damages ; such as are
reaeinable under all the circumstances. Youmust

Over, they did it partly under the influence of a wide.
spread popular excitement, which wag not charge;
able to them. We are all liable to such influences,
and very few of us, none of us, I should rather say,
are able to resist them. We should not be social'
beings at all, if we should resist them all. We
naturally and rightly share in the opinions thlit pro
-
rail around us, and we should not be worthy .of
society if we did not. And yet we are entitled to
the above common opinion if we can ; and when we
do, we cannot better show that we have done so
than by still respecting the common opinions' of
society as the only opinions upon which it can act.
In an tar as the deiendanta acted under the influence
of the wide-spwad popular excitement, aad not from
mere personal Motives , they are entitled to the bene
fit of it in mitigation of the exemplary damages you
may be disposed to allow ; not, however, to affect
the plaintiff's right to full compensation for the
ACtURI loss sustained by him.
All that I have now said is in the exact line Of
the Constitution and statutes of the land, and of
all the decisions under them, and under the princi
ples of the common law, many of which you have
beard read; and a little while ago it would have
been recognised by everybody as the plain law of
the land. lam not sure that it will be so now; if
the passions of men make the law there may be
some doubt about it. ' But if the law of the land is.
the sober and abiding thought of the whole people,
that. lives through all disorders and excitements,
and survives and judges them all—the great ocean
under-current of thought, to which waves and
storms, and tempests do not reach—then what have
said is titilaw still. I know of no other law for
this ease. This is the law, and the plaintiff is entV
tied to damages—compensative if the: defendants
acted in good faith and under a mere mistake of
authority ; and exemplary if there was any bad
faith, recklessness, and oppression intended in their
sot.
I have no further or special answer to give to the
points submitted by the counsel for the defendants.
They have all been substantially answered. The
case is now in your hands, gentlemen, and lan sure
you will dispose of it in such a way that, long as you
may live—and I hope it may be long—you wilt never
have reason to regret the part you have had in it.
The damages you may give are of no sort of impor
tance compared with the decision upon principles
that has devolved upon me.
