Oenilemcn:--I ara nlehly honored by yonr
invitation to an eutertainment which, as mem
bers of the Philadelphia Bar, you propose to
give, on a day to be named by me, as a testimo
nial of jour professional and personal regard
lor me, and beg you to accept my sincere
tnatiKB tneretor. xue invitaiiou did not reach
me until sevcial days alter I bad resigned my
judicial comnilsMou and entered upon my
public duties as a member of the Fortieth Con
gress. In the midst of these new duties it is
impossible to foresee, at .resent, a day when it
would be convenient to meet you. And, be
sides, I confess I do not like to be tho object of
h public entertolnment. There itoo much
dirtctneg and personality in the compliments
of such occasions to suit my lasts, for I cannot
persuade myself that I have rendered aoy
such public services as entitle mo to receive
them.
Whilst, however. I respectful! v decllno the
protlered entertainment, I am not insensible to
the nieat honor of hivin? wou. in a measure,
the confidence and esteem ol so distinguished a
body of mv fellow-citizens as tbe members of
the Bar ot Philadelphia. For Ulteen years I
went in and out amongst you as a Judge ot the
Supreme Court of Pennsylvania. It was my
business to listen to ou, and it gives me erea!
pleasure to acknowledge tbe learning and ability
with which you instructed me. "During that
long aud busy period, I doubt if causes were
better argued In any courts where the Enelish
common law prevails. I shitll look back upon
that period as one of the pleasantest eras of my
mr, uui wuijr oil ivxvuui oi mo forensic talent
which distinguished P, but because, also, of the
uuiiorm courtesy ana ginuness which charac
terized our professional intercourse, and the
warm nersonal uttaphmpnta iuhi,-h nun nn
between us.
Indeed, it elves roe singular SHtiifacHon to
look back, from this standpoint, over notonlv
the Bar of Philadelphia, but that of our whole
Mate, and to recall the many vounz men I have
ecn come forward to the active duties and the
fiarge xewnrds of the profession, and the many
jiiawire inwyors l nave seen alvnacinir to Its
Biiuhest honors. The retrospect is saddened, tn
Die sure, as all views of the past must be, by tho
recollection of the many honored names who
iiave gone to their graves some in the ripeness
of old ape, others in tbe midst of their years,
lilut the good examples of all such remaiu to
miniate me living, ana in me living lawyers of
I'ennsylvania the State has her best wealth:
Jfor it is tbe wealth cf educated intellect, of high
nd honorable endeavor, of d is cri mating judg-
Juent, of patriotic impulse.
inese ate an great powers, ana as ouen as
bey apply themselves to the questions of the
lay they recder the Slate s'rdhi service. They
Iiave done eo in days that are past, aud will do
lo in the present and future. To have bee a asso
fiated with nuch a hodv of men in so manv vea,r9
f pleasant professional intercourse, is one of
hose pure pleasures that pleases on reflection.
Kent-vine-, genriemen, ray mantes ior your
olite invitation. I subscribe myself, with senti
ments of high regard, your friend and obedient

was before Alderman Beitler yesterday alter
Loon, charged with publishing, under the head
of "Letters from tbe People." a deiamatorv and
scurrillous libel upon Samuel U. Hugulex. the
Chief of Police, on .November 3. Xh caption of
tbe article was "Radical Roughs." Chief Bug
gies testified that be bad calleJ upon Mr. Meesor,
and asked uwn nooui tne paternity ot mo article;
fbat defendant declined to Lame the author, as
the article was not librllouB. The witness lunisted
that U was, and ultimately was promised tbe
name ot tbe author. Mr. Meeser, he deposed,
in a subsequent issue of the paper declined to
give it. xue cause or wringing tue sun, ne said,
was that in the tame journal there lately ap

sons.
