The i underidgbed therefore submit that the mum- eland tamerfluoug addition thereto of a de- I demotion of innocence by the *Sant mast haveind tonne object aside from the noes- wiry, legal or proper use - of the affidavit, and demands inquiry and explanation ; and that if so signifibent a part of it was 'not "read to the affiaid..the object and cdnduct of those concerned in such a delinguenc7 cannot be otherwise than reprehe nsi ble.' ' . W,IL riCEIMAN, . D. S. WILSON, LLSX. Wet son. After hearing this third statement read, his i Honor. Judge ILeliesen, remarked that the Court had duly con_sidered the papers nth- mined* , them on Thursday, and now look- I ) ing at them in connection with the one which bad jest been presented. bewail suns- 1 fled that they contained matters seriously af- i {acting the Wert- ty of the bar. and which at least aemandeatrimlguantion. The time was when-the bar of 'Washington county enjoyed I a reputation for integrity seamd.to no other 1 in the State, and if from neglect of its duty the Cotirt should permit this gciod name to be i lost,-the Judges would be unworthy of the 1 stets they occupied. • Now that the conduct of Feeler's counsel was about to be inquired into, he deemed dt not out of place tovmdictite bis Honor, Judgp Agnew, of the Supreme Court, front a most , unjust reflection cast upon. him in the Retietc & ffnonintr, whichannouneed the refusal of that tribunal to allow a writ of error in Fo gler'sCaSa. That paper, instating the, result of the application for the writ; ebbed the whole blame of the refusal upon Judge Ag kW, to whom' It:st d, ated the f appliastiou had been referred. an who vies represented' as having not Only refused to give it ,due con sideration, but as having treated Mr.. Little, the counsel who presented it; with' rfideness. This was , wholly at variance with the films. Judge - Agnew had informed his Honor in person, that the record was first handed tp, } him by ChiefJustieeiVoodward. who reques' 'ted him to examine it and give him his nein ; • 1 ion as to whether a writ of error should be granted=that after making a careful exited ! nation be came - to the conclusion that -there was nothing in the record that required .'vision,re and so informed. the Chief Justice I when' be returned it to him—that Jthige ITT Rib wrible - touArdegerMil.Mßll...hinit. i n Ilb the tourse of which the written ersputieet admitted by Mr. Little was carefully read And considered, and the) result was a mad i mons concurrentse in the opinion that the writ:shookd trot be allnived. 1 His Honor, Hedge Aehtsmi stated that the ) editors were not to blame for the reflective) {that Wham! asst mesh Judge. Agne w, as I • l 'het had Itt? Upuh.t nee the to awe the strenith of inn:siltation 'derived from some one else. Recurring to the :object matter' of the pa pers that had been laid before them, his-Hon or sold the Court would not act hastily in • the premises; but would proceed with' deW oration. Re thereupon directed that a rote be entered requiring Messrs. Ruth and Little (bothof whom were absent) la make answer , to the petition at the adjourned tc•iitt to bh t f held do the 25th of June. i •t 1 , 1 ,The,,Deaseerate Platfbrus., ( _ , . .
