8 THE DAILY. EVENING TELEGRAPH PHILADELPHIA, SATURDAY, MARCH 27, 1869. LEGAL INTELLIGENCE. . The I.aw f Professional rblevw . Court or qoartkb hkbsions Judge Ludlow. It will be reoolleoted tbat on Baturday lout ft a . application upon habeas oorpus was mad for tne discharge of Joseph Keyser, who was arrested while standing in a crowd about ibe ofllo of Ibe Reoelver ot Taxes, and was oorn mltled to prison for ninety days aa a profes atonal thief. Jill reputation was tbal of a tblef, bnl be had not been known to bave oommltted a tbeft within five yearn. Toe law was argnnd by V. U. Cans 1 dy, Ksq., and Ibis morning bis Honor Judge Ludlow.gave tne following able . decision: opinioit. t Tbe relator has been arreHted nnder tbe pro visions ot tne act of Assembly of tbe 18 ui of March, IWia, relating to tbe summary arrest and oonvlellonof professional thieves, burglars, and pick pockets. Tbe constitutionality of tbls aot of Assembly w is settled by oar Supreme Court in Uyers vs. Commonwealth. 6 Wr. 03, and It only remains for tbe Court to give, as It has already done, auob an Interpretation to the lauKUnge of the law &h will practically effect tneoojucuotended to be accomplished by tue Legislat ure. We ouitht not, it Is true, so to strain tbe law as to make It oppressive, nor should we evlsee rate it bv too technical a construction. Af.iir Interpretation Is all tbatrau can be asked for, and we ought not to grunt more. We assume at once, In the language of tbe Bnpreme Court, ''that the offense Is not being reputed or professional thieves, burglars, or pickpockets, but lrequentlng a railroad depot, etc., tor an unlawful purpose." 11 the magistrate Is satistled, by sufllolent tes timony, that the prisoner beiore him was at or near one of tbe Interdicted places ram-xl in the . aot, be may deal with blm as the law directs, provided tbe accused visited tne place lor an unlawlul purpose. ... Tbe main question, thPn, to be determined Is, "What sball be considered sulllolent testimony? and In anuwerlug It, it Is evident that eaon case must depend upon the peculiar tacts developed In It, and It Is Impossible to adopt a general rule which sball be inflexible. A pickpocket, whose business It Is to work: wltn bis bands, may be Justly convicted upon one set of foots, and a burglar and common thlet upon another. Take the present case as an Illustration. A man, known to be a pickpocket, is found at tbe edge of a crowd with a companion, In front of the ofllce of the Kecelverot Taxes, at a lime when citizens gaiber to pay their taxes; the peculiar province of a pickpocket 18 to plunder by stealth with bis hands? Is It nard to believe, ' from tbe very lact that tbe prisoner was in a f lace peculiarly adapted lor the successful prao loe of bis profession, that bis object was un lawful? Are not tbe facts surrounding blm, of themselves, sufficient testimony to convince any unprejudiced mind? If the authorities must delay action until an overt aot is oommuted, then tbe law is a dead letter, and may as well be wiped out of tbe statute boos. Tbe vice of tbe argument pressed upon us, with much foroe and ability, consists, as we tbiak, In rejecting tbe faots surrounding this .prisoner as evldenoe of bis Intention. Prove to me that a pbysiolan Is by profession a surgeon tbat be stands In an amphitheatre, with bis amputating knife In bis band, and bis patient reoilnlog before blm npon a table and, in tbe absence of all conflicting testimony, I will Irre sistibly draw tbe conolusion that an operation Is about to be performed. The fact is no man can be reacbed by tbls law until It appears tbat be baa adopted a criminal course of life as a profusion; and wben one sees fit to defy tbe law habitually, the law In turn wisely believes that the appearance of such a man at a spot peculiarly adapted lor profes sional exertion Is presumptive evidence that be Intends to practise. Jlut It is argued tbat our construction de stroys Individual rights, and renders repentanoe Impossible, - We admit that if we are driven to this result our conclusion must be wrong, and we bave therefore careiully considered tue subject, and . cannot escape tbe conviction tbat tbe fault la . In tbe argument, and not In onr conolusion, Tbe person arrested bas ills day In court; he may prove that his business was lawful, that lie bas abandoned bis lnlamous profession, and bas reformed. It Is also possible even for a thief to throw himself npon the protection of tbe police or of aeltlzen; to declare tbat be bas visited an In terdicted locality for a lawful purpose, and to give notice of the fact. As, for instance. In the event of the death of a relative at a distant city, be may declare on entering a depot or oar, "I am a professional plckpooket, but at present I am on a visit to a dying relative." Surely, after auob a notice, be win not be moiestea by tne ratuorutes, and his fellow-travellers will un derstand -tbat they travel with a dangerous person. Both will thus be protected. Tbls decision shifts the burden of proof upon the suspeoted person after tne Commonwealth bas produced prima facie evidence, and this is right, for the man wuo deliberately breaks Into your houBe at night, steals, or pioks your pocket, as a profession, ought to be made to understand that the law Is not a cobweb to be destroyed by a breath, and that we cannot emasculate It In order to permit rogues to escape, or even reformed men not to do "works meet for repentance." In the evi dence produced In this cause we see mnoh lo convince us of the propriety of the convic tion before the magistrate, but in order to do exact Justice, as the evldenoe is that the relator bas been arrested (altbougb said to be a profes sional tblef) but once In five years, and was then discharged, we will permit him to prove, on Saturday next, that bis pnrpose In being on the ontsklrt of a crowd at tbe office of the Kecelver of Taxes was a lawful one, or that he baa reformed, and that neither here nor else where does be practise bis profession, and la an honest man. When be does tbls it will give us pleasure to protect blm, and thus prove that a reformed man has nothing to fear from this statute. If be falls to do this, he will learn that a law which may Indeed be severe, is not to be de stroyed, but that It will be enforced, and that no one will be to blame bnt the man who per sistently wars npon the welfare of society, and against whose depredations tbe publlo must be protected. Court of Common Plk as Judge Pelrce George Henderson, August Clemens, John Mur ray, Adam Erford, and James Miller were charged with riot. The proprietor of the tavern southeast corner of Broad and Poplar streets, testified tbat some fifteen fellows came into bis place and demanded liquor, whloh was refused inem, and they seized the bottles, and Miller drew a blaokjack. They broke glasses, bottles, and pitchers, causing him a serious pecuniary loss. The witness recognized each, defendant as being of the party. On cross-examination be said that when be refused the liquor they went behind the bar to sake it. cieveral witnesses testified that three or four days "before this alleged riot, these prisoners . went to a tavern In Poplar street, above Ninth, and ordered drinks, but refused to pay for them. There were also indictments charging the prisoners with malicious mischief, and Miller with carrying a concealed deadly weapon the Joiaokjack. Tbe defense proved that abont the time laid for the riot Erford was seen several squares away trying to sell a ball ticket, and it was argued tbat If tbe prosecutor mistook tbe Identity of one, it would be unsafe to oonvlot upon biu Identification of the others. Tbe Jury rendered a verdlot of guilty upon all the charges, and convicted Miller of assault also. The Judge sentenced all of them to the C mnly Prison for one month for the riot; Miller to an additional month for carrying the blackjack; and the bill charging malloious mlsohlef was beld over. They were also required to give security In $500 to keep t bs peace. jon ii Oralg, who was several days since con Teted of forgery, was sentenoed'io the Eastern FeuiteDilary lor one year. John Dlx, who yesterday pleaded guilty" to a charge of eoterlDg a house with intent to steal, was sentenced to the (Jjunty Prison for f jur months. Market by Telegraph. Ualttmobb, March 27.

"W M SECOND EDITION LATEST BY TELEGRAPR President Grant Ill-The Office seekers Tire Him Out Affairs at the White House. The Civil Tenure Law-The Ultimate Action of the Senate and House. Our Went India Sqnadron he JUe in forced by Iron-clad. FROM WASHINGTON. Special Deipaich to The Evening Telegraph. Tbe .Ofllce Keel era too mneti lor the Prenitlent'a Ilealili. Washington, March 27. General Grant Is too unwell to-day to receive visitors. The continued pressure of office-seekers mid their friends has partially broken him down. He la suffering from a severe attack of nervous headache, and last night was unable to rest. In view of the Injurious tflects of the rush ot cullers upon the President, it is probable some menns will bo adopted whereby the number of persons admitted to see him will be less, and the delegation business and the general levees In the altcmoon will be discontinued. Other wise tt Is the opinion of Qraut's physicians that his health will suffer to an extent which will render him Incapable of attending te business. To-day neither Senators or members are ad mitted. Iron-Clads to Reinforce onr West I nil In feqtlfMlrou. The Secretary of the Navy has issued orders to fit out the iron clads Galena and Setnluole, now at Portsmouth. Navy Yard, to proceed to reinforce tne West India squadron. These war vessels are of the first class, and it is thought their presence In Cub:in waters will act as a restraint upon any lawless conduct towards inierican interests on the part of the Spanish authorities. Honorably Acquitted. Captain James H. Strong, late commander of Lthe Cauandalgua. who was tried by court martial some time ago for an alleged breach of the rules of the navy, has been honorably ac quitted, and orders to that effect will be issued by the Secretary of the Navy. Neither house being in session to-day.the vari ous departments are overran by Senators, mem bers, and their friends, fixing up, or trying to fix, appointments for various positions. The becretary of State has decided not to take up applications for Consular appointments, or even for minor foreign missions, until the chief offices at homo have been disposed of. Tbe pressure for the latter is so great upon the President, that he is anxious to get tuem out of the way first. The Secretary of the Treasury and Commis sioner of Internal Revenue are busy briefing applications for places in the Internal revenue service. A large batch of removals ot collectors, assessors, and minor offices have been agreed upon and man; new names were sent over to tbe White House last evening. The Iteal of the Tenure of-Office Law continues to be the chief subject of conversa tion, and next to the removals and appoint ments absorbs the most attention of the poli ticians. It is not yet positively known what the Senate will do in view of the House's refusal to concur. The first movement will be made by the anti-repealers to insist upon the Senate bill and ask a conference committee from the House. A counter movement will be made by the repealers to recede from the Senate amend, njents to the House bill, which, if successful will adopt the latter and secure the repeal of the law. Both sides are busy at work to day mustering their strength, when the Senate caucus adopted the proposition which has just been defeated In. the House. There was some hope that th House would recede. Now that it has refused to do to, many Republican Senators hold that they are no lODger bound by the caucus, and they will go for the House bill. Among this class arc such men as Morton, Sherman, Ihayer, Sprugue, Grimes, and others. Tbe First Pennsylvauli District Colleo lontlilp. The nomination of Colonel J. H. Taggart to be Collector of Internal Revenue for the First district of Pennsylvania was sent over to the President yesterday afternoon by the Secretary of the Treasury. The President has signified his Intention of sendini; in Colonel Taggart's name the first next week. This virtually settles the matter, as there is no doubt of Taggart's confirmation, both the Senators from Pennsyl vania being for Lim. A Swindling Operation. Detroit, March 27. Alvuu Wllkins, a stock broker, was yesterday robbed of $3000 in bonds by t confidence man, who bad a desk arranged to that bonds put into a pigeonhole were immediately abstracted.

A Constant Pain or Uneasiness in the Pit of the Stomach, which is caused by a permanent contraction of the stomach upon undigested food. It generally beginslmmediately or a short time after eatiDg; is generally very evero and obstinate. . 2. Flatulence and Acidity. These symplojnt arise from the indigestion of food, which fcr ments, instead of digesting. 3. Costiveness and Loss of Appetite. These symptoms are'the effects of the unnatural con dition of the food in the stomach, and the want of pure bile and gastric juice. The stomach is often painfully distended by wind; the appetlta is sometimes voracious.) 4. Gloom and Depression of Spirits. This state unfits many for the enjoyment of life, and is caused by the impure blood lurnlshed by im perfect digestion. In, this stage of the disease many persons commit suicide. There is a con slant foreboding ol evil, and an indifference and positive inability to perioral the offices of life. 5. Diarrhoea. After being at first costive, the suffeicr is afflicted with diarrhoea, which is owing to a diseased condition of the bowels, produced by the . undigested food, which is evacuated in the same condition as when eaten, and, of course, gives no strength to the system. 6. Pains in all parts of the System Arise from from the action of impure blood upon the nerves. They are felt chiefly in the head, sides, and breatt and in tbe extremities. In mauy cases there is an uneasiness in the throat, with a sense of choking or suffocation; the mouth is often clammy, with a bad taste and furred tongue. 7. Consumptive Symptoms and Palpitation of the Heart. Mafiy. persons pronounced as having these diseaeeB, have, iu fact, nothjug bat Dys pepsia, tbe lung ana heart disease being only sjmptoms. 8. Cough. This Is a very frequent symptom of Dyspepsia, and leads very often into con firmed Consumption. 9. Want of Sleep. A very distressing symp. torn, rcsalting often in mental derangement. 10. Symptoms of External Relation. Tho pa tient is affected painfully by cold and heat, which Is owing to unnatural dryness of skin, and the tkin is often affected by eruptions and tetters. The gloomy dyspeptic avoids society as much as possible. 11. Vomiting. A frequent and distressing symptom. It relieves the pain, but emaciate and wears oat the patient. 12. Dizziness, D'mi.es of Vision, Uoadacho, and Staggering in Walking. These are very alarming symptoms, which are speedily re moved by our medicine, but if neglected are quickly followed by numbness and saddea, death. 13. it is Impossible for us to give all the symptoms of Dyspepsia In so small a space, but the above are considered sufficient, If w add, tbat the patient loses his memory and regard to suirounding objects, and frequently, becomes morose and sour in disposition. We should say, however, that pains in the joints and stiffness of tbe limbs, which go by the name of Rheuma tism and Neuralgia, are produced by Dyspepsia Also, a hardness of the muscles of the abdomen, which becomes contracted and hard; and. in some cases the belly sinks, Instead of being gently prominent. t A touch of the Dyspepsia has changed a man's whole lile, and an lrrtgularlty of the bile has made many an angtl almost a fiend. aJf the gas tric juice is all right, and the blood In swimming order, the world is a nice, bright, pleasant place, from which nobody is In a hurry to move; but 11 in that queer, mysterious fluid there is aa alloy, the sky of life is all cloud, the winds howl, aud everything Is dark and dismal. If you want to feel happy, look after your digestive and cir culating systems.
