THE "LOYALTY" OF JUDGE BLACK.
One year ngo this month, Edwin
M. Slntiton dioj, utid recuivod ihul
cliriHtian burinl ubich ho had made a
merit of deny ing to oil. era both nico
and women whom lie liad couactl to
be ttrangled by tbe handa of military
aagttssitiit, and imogglcd into unknown
graves. Ilia littor career liatl bdett
Btormy one, for the most pnrt, in open
defiance of the laws of the land, and
filled with many deeds of tyranny,
and many deeds of treachery. Jiut
tbe better part of the pnblio who had
been abused by bia insolence and out
raged by his ctiines, wcro willing to
commit his body to the earth in do-
corus silence, and leave hit questlona-
u,o maritcier -to men s charitable
speeches." This, however, was not to
bo. . Itobcspierre had friends Bur
rere had admirers; Judns Iscnriot has
found a defender, an J even Stanton
had eulogists. They wore of the class
who hud profited by bis treatberies,
and loved him for bis bnaone(. It
was fit that tlicy should laud him fur
his iiifuiiiics, and natural that they
should seek to appease his slmdo by
dufaming those whom ho L..d most in
humanly wronged.
Mr. ilour, then attorney general of
tlio Ur.itod .Slates, begun tbo business.
IIo mtido an oration in tho Supreme
Court, which was in no proper sense
a eulogy upon Stanton, but was from
beginning to end a libel upon other
and better men. The substitneo of it
wns that, In tlio "hour of national
agony," iStnnlon being a member of
tfiiclinnnn s cabinet, had saved the
Union einglo-handed, and in doing so
had passed through perils at tho hands
of Ins disloval associates and their
hief. The next morninc Judiro lllack
addressed Jlr. Iloor a public letter.
telling hitn that (ho story retailed
the day before wns utterly false, and
desiring hi in to produce tho cvi
donco upon which it was founded, if
any bo bod. Mr. Hoar sought (lilli
gently for tho evidence ; ho wroto
numerous and pressing letters to "loy
al" men liko Senator Howard, who
had been repeating and magnifying
the foul lie for years together, but af
tor tho most painful search, stimulat
ed by tho shutno of being branded as
a libeller, he failed to rake together
anything that In tho remotest decree
supported his public statements. Then
Mr. llonr, being half honest, alboit
thick headed and "loyal," gave up his
enterprise in disgust, and left to oth
ers tho tusk of defuming Buchanan's
cabinet.
Tho ''loyal" wcro now in ovil caso ;
tho regular attorney bad thrown up
his brief, and precious culumny that
had dono them good service through
ten long years was about to dio for
want of ono fulso witness. In this
dire extremity Senator Wilson, as
loyal and as trothy as Hoar, hut with
nnno of bis old fashioned scruples, un
dertook to itifuso now life Into tho
worn out slander, and make it as ser
viceable as ever. Ho called to his uid
various senators and other parly hacks,
and clothing the old story in a com
paratively now dress, decorated with
sundry brilliant inventions of his own,
be rushed with it into the pages or the
Atlantie Monthly. An answer from
Judge. liluck, showing how Wilson
was unwittingly blackening Stanton s
character, and making him a hypo-
cnt and a criminal, whtlo the con
duct of Mr. Buchunan and his cabi
net shone brighter and fairer with
every worJ of discussion, overwhelmed
hitn with shiiine nnd covered him with
confusion. Whoreupon poor Wilson,
borrowed the old loiters which Hoar
had gathered in bis vain butdesporale
attempt to rovivo tho same colnmny,
nnd calling in tbe help of .Sumner,
Howard, l'uwes, Seward, and a dor.cn
or so moro, he got up an awkward
document, or string of documents,
which, for wnnt of something bettor,
ho wns compelled to print in reply.
In the previous article In the Atlantic
ho bad appeared nlono, liko Stanton
in liucbiiitHn's cabinet a sinilo, lorn
loyalist; lint here he was again with
eightoen or twenty more, worso than
hnuscll. iMtliout this eotnnnnv, 1'cr-
haps Wilson would have been un
worthy of fittthor nolico. Ho stood
before tho world impnting thirty years
of unparalleled treachery to tho man
whom ho professed to honor, and oven
nnming the particular acts of bnscness
which established bis character in
contosUibly as a false friend, a doublo
and Ireblo rencgado, a conspirator
against the fame, yen, the very lives
of tbe fondest bcncfiiclors-a coarse,
vulgar rogue, a spy, a tattler, and a
ruflinn. Unhappily for Wilson, ho
cosily proved tit tat Slunlon was each
and all of these, and thus destroyed
the credibility of the only witness by
whom ho could sustain tho weak ac
cusation he had fabricated against the
J'tichnnan Administration. This es
say, formidable only in its frighlful
array of tbe proofs of Stanton's puilly
duplicity, bronght out from Judge
Black, that paper of amazing grace
and power, which we published in our
issue of the 18th inat , and which
makes it us clear historically, as tbe
trettoii of Judas or Amohj, that
i NOT MEN.
FEBRUARY Ir
Slanton was just what Wilson's wit-
nesscs would mako him "Me most j
mnnvloui in poster' that ever live or;
ff.-.f."' ;' ' . " ' ' , ," '. .
Hut wo do pot propose, to review
una laiTiotis controversy. 11 neeus no
review; tne trtiiii is as manifest as
tbo sunlight, and henceforth no man,
not even tho most meniluclmiH and
"loyal" will ever deny It. We pro
pose morely to ofTcr a" few hinls Ihul
may be improved npon at another
lime.

Was it from a sense of fidelity to Mr.
Buchanan, whom be always honored
as a puro and upright statesman f It
may have been so, although here is a
letter from Mr. Buchanan, of March
1, 1X02, in which tho old differences of
opinion uro fully recognized, and be
"is not nt all astonished to learn" that
Judgo liluck is tdii! of tho samo mind.
Jin I what ate llicsa proofs, which
shows unmistakably Judge Black's
leadership in tbe Union in the councils
of 1 fjiM and 'til, when the Abolitionists
were toady to "let tbe Union slido,"
when Congress would do nothing 10
save it either by force or conciliation,
and the President could look for no
support fur bis efforts to sustain the
Constitution but in the Northern De
mocracy J . They consist of numerous
letters from Mr. Buchanan and va
rious members of his cabinet; and of
many original nianu'cripla, somo of
them in tho handwriting of Judge
Black, somo In tho handwriting of
Edwin M. Stanton, and somo in the
handwriting of a del k. To our loyal
(now school) frici.Jj that ono In the
handwriting f Mr, Stanton would
probnly bo the most convincing. ' It
bears no dato, but is headed "Memo
randum for tbe President on the sub
ject of tho paper drawn op by him
in reply to tho commissioners ol south
Carolina." It is wrillon on oigbl pages
foolscap, and is a strong, nervous and
somewhat passionnlo review of all Iho
points in issue between South Carolina
and the government, and on onch one
Judgo Black's advico la of such
tort that every senlouce would be an
everlasting fortune to a liadical poli
tician if ho could show such a thing
in bis record. Jl concludes t "These
aro points on which 1 would advise
that the paper be amended. I am
aware that thry are too radical to
fcrmit much hope of their adoption,
f they are adopted the whole paper
will need to bo recast. Hut there is
one thing not to bo overlooked In Ibis
terrihlo crisis. I entreat tho Presi
dent to order the Brooklyn and Ma
cedonia to Charleston without the
least delay, nnd, in tho meantime,
send s trusty messenger to Major
Anderson to let him know that his
government will not desert him. Tho
reinforcements of troops from New
York or Old Point Comfort should
follow immediately. If this bo dono
at once, all moy yet be not well
buleompnrstivcly aafo. If not I can see
nothing before us but disaster and
ruin 10 tbe country." As said before
Ibis paper is entirely in tho hand wri
ting of Kdwin M. Stunton. It is raro
fulfT folded nnd endorsed on tho out
side, in the sumo handwriting: "Ob

J hat was hclora Jlr. Mnnton was
tho "great secretary," and when bo
was content to bo tho amanuensis of
another serctary.
But JuiIl'o Black, while Attorney
General, advised tho President thai
ho had ''no right to make war on a
State ."' So he did, but bo never said
that the President hnd no rii'ht to
suppress insurrection and break up
unlawful combinations or individual
men against the laws of the Union.
On the contrary, every word and line
of his advice, public nnd private, wns
directly the reverse. In Iho draft of
a message which he prepared for tho
President, nnd a small part of which
was incorporated in the sth of Jan.

and warns Iho Presidnt to listen to

THE LATE MURDER TRIAL'
Wo have reeelvttd the fnllowing com
munionlion from Judgo McKnully. lie
completely vindicates our position in
eolation to Iho acquittal of murderers
by tho juries' of this County, and the
reason wo did not sooner denounce
tbo crime of allowing murderers to
run at largo, was, that we expected
each would be the last, until tho lute
trial, after which, "forbearance ceased
to bo a virtue." Hence, as a public
journalist, wo de.nounc.od it, , This
was our duty, and wo will continue
to do so until eourts and juries execute
law and protect society.
To the Editor of the Ilqiublican :
I give you credit for tho ability and
independence with which j'ou express
your views. Hut 1 think you arc
sometimes wrong.
Your comments on the result of the
trial of Martin Harder, for murder, ore
iu my opinion, unjust to tho jury and
not susiauicu vy tlio facts in the caso.
Asoneot the connsel for the Defen
dunt, I became familiar with the facts,
and with all the questions thai arose
at the trial. Jiut the trial is over,
my connection with it at an end, and
1 now write simply becauso justice
to tbo jury scorns to call for some reply.
You speak of tho result as an
acquittal. So fur from tho result
boing on acquittal. Harder was con
victed of murder, and as a murderer,
was sentenced to an imprisonment of
11 years and u months acparato or
solitary connnoment in Iho 1 enllon
liary. This was within one month
of the limit allowed by law in hit
case. It is a longer sentence than
has lately been imposed by the Court
in any cuso oi the same kind.
x ne question ociuro the jury was,
whether tbe crime was murder in tbo
first, or in tho second degree. It is
murder In tho first degreo when the
murder is willful, deliberate and pre
meditated, with the intent to take life.
Hut if tho mind from intoxication or
any other cause, is deprived of its
power to form a riesnjn mth deliberation
it is murder in tho second degree.
Accordingly when the murderer in
his sober senses, with n sedate, coo!
mind, plans and premeditates the
commission of his critno, ns whero it
is done for money, it is murder in tho
hrst degree. Un tlio other bund most
murders committed on a suddon quar
rel though with a deadly weapon,
under the influence of sudden passion,
provocation or of intoxication, arc held
to be murder in iho second degree.
In this caso the evidence showed
that the quarrel was sudden, occurring
anoui o ociocvr in inn nllernoon, in
the open street. Tho Di'fendar.t hnd
taken ut least fourteen drinks since 1 1
o'clock of that day, and was certainly
to some extent under the influenco of
liquor; nn assault wns twice made on
him by Dnlo who was n man of supe
rior strength ; nnd whon tho second
usxnull wns mado and Harder had
been struck both by Dalo and Dalo's
brother, bo used a knifo and killed
his assailant. Tho knifo had been
taken out of his pocket and carried
open in bis pocket after tho first
assault, but in such a public manner
that nearly every one knew it, nnd
Dnlo tho deceased wns fully informed
of tbe fuel; and the wholes period of
limo that elapsed between the first
and second assault was only between
5 and 10 minutes.
Under this stato of facts the jury
found a verdict of murder in tho
second degree, and in regard to the
verdict we beliove it was mcli as was
expected by a majority of persons ru
unbiassed judgment who heard Ibo
wholo trial. Jiesido this, it corre
sponds with what our Courts and
juries have generally dono in liko cases
under liko evidence.
In tho Morrison caso tho Defendant
with very littlo provocation, suddonly
killed Higcins, an unarmed mnn, with
an axo. The jnry found him guilty
of murder in tlio second degree, and
the Court sentenced to only abont 7J
years iniprisonmen in the Penitentiary
In tho Hall case tbo Defendant got a
knife and stabbed bis victim in the
heart, causing instant death, and the
verdict of murder in the first degreo
wns set asido by the Court, and after
wards by consent, the Defendant
allowed to plcnd guilty of rriurdcr in
the second degreo, and then the sen
tence of the Court wns considerably
less than in tho case of nnrdcr. Yet
in neither of these cases did we hoar
any word of complaint from tho Kdifor
of tho liepul'liran against Court or
jury, or anybody olso.
In the well known cose of Lawrence
L'llman, Judgo Woodward set aside
tho verdict of murder in the first
degree, and afterwards allowed a plea
of guilty of mnrder in tho second
degreo. Tbo Defendant was then
sentenced the full extent allowed by
law.
liockenhcrrv who shot Thompson
publicly nt Lumber City, in this
county, some years ago, was con
victed onlv of murder in the second
degree. His sentence was only about
4 years in tbo Penitentiary, and I
think he was pnrdoncd out before bis
term expired.
Ilnforo a mnn can bo convicted of
murder in tbo first deereo the law
requires that every element of the
not to consent to snch a verdict and
judgment while any such doubt re.
muined. And the judges have been
q ii it o as lender and careful on this
point ns tho jurors.
Why then, Mr. F.ditor, sinclo out
and denounco the Harder j ury because
thrr did pot have a man hung when
they bad a chnnce f If by so doing
tho Harder jury are all Solomons
entitled to jour notice why should
other Solomons go onmentioned

It is true that somo juries might

in tho first degloe. But It must bo

find a verdict for moro than murder
in thuBe,cond'uVrec. Wc think no "
ono can justly find i'uull with thm
for their verdict.
I ngreo with yon tbrtt tho law needs'
amendment. Many eases of. murder
in tho second degree aro so atrocious
that an imprisonmunl in Iho Penitcn
liary for 1 yenrs is no adequate pun
ishnicnt. Tho law should givo the
Conrts power to sentence o ponton
twice as long. ' But if the punishment;
provided is not enough it is the fault
of tho law and not of the jury. It
docs not justify a jury in finding a

than lliey believe the luw and ovidence)
will warrnnt. - "
Respectfully,
J. ll. McEnallt:
Senator Wallace. ;
We clip the following from the liar- ,
risburg Patriot, which is a proper
tribute paid to the talcul and worth
of our ceslctmcd neighbor : . .
Wm. A . Wallace, of Clearfield, a R'r.
rcscntativc man of tho young Democ'
racy of Pennsylvania, has been placed
in tho Spcakor'a choir nf the Senate of
bis native State, by the voico of ft,
majority of that body. This marks
an era in the politics of the Common,
wealth, and boLors on ardent and
earnest Democrat. Tho devotion of
Senator Wallace to tho principles of
tho Democracy has been ns marked as
his labors in their behnlf havo beerf
untiring, llcsident sinco bis early
youth in the mountain county of Clear
field, bis hislorj' is intimately con
nected with tho growth nnd progress
of that ever faithful county. Kn gaged
in tho nctivo practice of bis profession"
for fifteen years of his early life, ho"
sought no political place, but was ever
ready at Iho call of his party, to de
fend his principles on Iho stump, or Ut
lend his powerful organizing mind Iff
bring victory to their standard. ! After
bearing tho reputation of being one of
the strongest lawyers in the central
pnrt ot the State, ho was driven from
close application to his profr'scion by
ill health and was elected to the Stato1
Senate in tbo full of 18.12, beating id
tho contost Hon. L. W. Hall, then
Speaker of the body, nnd ono of tho
most distinguished leaders of the- Re
publican party in Pennsylvania. Sineo
that timo Senator Wallace has been :t
member of the Senate, nnd Is how frt'
his last year of his third term. II
took rank at onco as ono of tho ablest
members of tho body, and for four
years has been tho recognized Icadcf
of his party in tho Senate.
in 1 !St4 tho Democratic convention
seloctcd him ns tho Chairman of llirf
State Committee and gave him the.
leadership of (ho Democracy in that
contest. Mr. Wallaco bad not sought
the place end ncccplcd it as a duty.'
Wo were just emerging from the wary
and power, money and influence were
against Iho Domocracy. In 1SG6, ho
was continued as chairman by the
unanimous voico of tho pconlo. ana
again with unflinching devotion ho
bent his wholo mind to Ihe work, and
for tho first timo in many years
systematic and thorough organization
of tho party was made. InlSGTho
aghin was chairman and by his ener
gett efforts and thorough work c&P-
ried the State for Jtldgo SnatswOod:
In 1SC8 the party again demanded hi.
services find they wcro given wilh all
Ibe vigor of his great power of organ;
ization, and nnder his lead tho Democ-"
racy in October mado the most gal
lant up-hill fight in their history. Irl
all theso campaigns he enjoyed the
entire confidence of every section of
tho party. Io Ins high character for
personal integrity was due, in a great
measnre.ournbility to raise the sinews'
of war for these vampsigns, for nnder'
his management It was certain that .
evory dollar of money subscribed
would be honestly applied to the legiti
mate pdrpoAes of the contest. Whert
the campaign Of ltflS was over tlitf
minutiss of the orgsriiastion of the
party had, under the skilllul hand of
its leader, acquired system and cohe
rence. A gallant fight was mado and
a larrcr Democratic vulc polled nttbtf
October elcclion of that year than had
ever before been cast in" the Stalo.
But the current of events wns aeainst
Iho Democracy and even vigilance,
energy and tho wisdom of exoricneo
failed to win. At the convention ol
