THE CHIEF JUSTICE•
When Thurlow Weed started the story that
Chief Justice Chase had accumulated a large
fortune during the war, he probably knew
that he was launching a lie that would, travel
ever the country, as lies usually travel, so
fast that the truth would never overtake it.
The libel was framed in a palatable and pop
ular form. It is Such a common thing for
men to use office for then personal aggran
dizement, that there axle thousands of well
meaning people who are always ready to ac
cept, as true, any statement reflecting on the
integrity of public servants. There are cor
rupt men in all governments. There were
undoubtedly many such who grew rich
fraudulently, during the war,out of the neces
sities of the country. But there are
thousands of men who have; served
in (Alice and in private life,
faithfully and ably and laboriously for the
sake of their country, and out of an intense
love for the institutions of freedom which are
on trial on this continent. Some of these
men have been so circumstanced in their
business connections that they have continued
to grow rich during the past six years,and, in
their hands, wealth is only a blessing to them
selves and to the communities in which they
live. Others have come out of the war poorer
than they went in, or at least without having
added anything to their property. They have
"toiled all the night and taken nothing."
Not because they lacked opportunity, but
because their official positions were such that
none of the opportunities which surrounded
them could have been used without marring
the beauty of the sacrifice which they were
offering on their country's altar, and without
the suspicion and taint of dishonesty resting
upon their fair fame.
Many noble specimens of this clam might
be named from among the men who have
served the people well, during the last six
years, but none nobler than the man whom
Thurlow Weed selected to fix his slander
upon. Chief Justice Chase has, been too long
and too prominently in public life to need, at
this day, any rehearsal of his great services.
To him was entrusted that most difficult de
partment of the government, its finances,
during the gloomy days of the Repub
lic, from the beginning of Mr. Lin
coln's administration until the middle
of the year 1864. Financiers and political
economists may wrangle over' the policy of
Mr. Chase, to their heart's content, but the
fact will remain that the confidence of the
masses of the people was wonderfully sus
tained by it, and that the nation poured out
its treasures in furtheiance of that policy,
without weariness or stint. But while "to
the pure all things axe pure," it is equally true
that "to the corrupt all things are corrupt,"
and of all corrupt things, a %orrupt politician
is perhaps the worst. Therefore it is not to
be wondered at that the Thurlow Weeds of
the country could not conceive of a man at
the very head and centre of the public Trea
sury, who did not fill his own pockets and
make himself rich out of the opportunities of
office.
And yet the coup had just such a man
in Mr. Lincoln'a...cab' et, and more than one
such man. Mr. OK was a man of very
moderate means when he went into the
Treasury Department. At the age of fifty
three years it was no very wonderful thing
for a man of his abilities to have accumulated
one hundred thousand dollars. " He was
worth nearly that sum at that time,and is not
•
worth any more now. He took command of
the Treasury Department with the fixed re
-solve to make no money out of his office,and
the severity with which he adhered to this
rule was rigorous in the extreme. The
Chief Justice was about the last roan
in the country to attack on any such ground
as this. The notoriety which the libel has
gained has doubtless been very annoying to
a man who had passed through the ordeal of
temptation without a stain - He has taken
no public notice of the calumny, but in a
recent private letter to a friend in this city,
be says:
"I don't want to be represented as particularly
poor or particularly disinterested. I think lam
worth now about one hundred thousand dollars.
I should, at any rate, be quite willing to take
that sum in 5-20's, and make a clear conveyance
of all I have in the world to anybody who will
pay my debts. I would willingly be worth - a'
great deal more if I knew of an honest way to
get worth more. All that the people arc in
terested in knowing is that I havn't a cent which
of right belongs to them. I didn't serve them to
'snake naoneyout of them, but to save money for I
them, and really fed that the rascals who are
slandering me ought to be denounced, and this
mean attempt to injure me In the public esteem
exposed. It Is much more important to the
people .than it is to me, that those who have
served them faithfully shall be fully and gene
rously, sustained; otherwise rascality will be at a
premium, and those who are trying to make
them suspect me will run their arms to the
shoulders In their mouty-bags."
THE itonais 411113kSTION.
The designs of Garibaldi and the Party of
Action upon the city of Rome and the tem
poral power of the Pope continue to excite
attention throughout Europe and, intense
anxiety on the part of the Catholic priesthood,
especially Of France and Italy. By the terms
of the September Convention, which resulted
in the withdrawal of the French troops from
the Papal dominions, Victor Emmanuel and
Napoleon pledged themselves not to interfere
With the integrity of the territory of the
, •
Church, nor 'to occupy it with •an .
armed '
'force. When the body of the French troops
was withdrawn, permission was given to
those who those to do so to remain and _vol-
unteer in the service of the Pope. ' Quite a
large body of men, induced, it may be, by
some secret influence, availed themselves
of the privilege and - stayed in
Rome. This was weN enough
if France had kept her promise to exercise
no control whatever over the volunteers.
But General Dumont suddenly appeared in
Rome a. few weeks ago, for, the ostensible
"'Purpose of "lookui• g after the welfare" of these
exiledN'renchmen. , But the General, while
taking d e of their comfort, embraced
si ,r
the oppo unity to make a few incidental
remarks, ' which he more than intimated
that the ench Emperor considered these
soldiers to be his subjects and liable to his'
control ; and he besought them not to forget
that they were Frenchmen, and that France
was first entitled to their allegiance. This
looked very much as if the volunteer business
was merely a subterfuge to enable Napoleon
to keep his promise of evacuation to the ear
mid break it to the hope, and it naturally
excited alarm and suspicion throughout
Italy. .___
And now we come to the Italian side of
this complicated affair, in which, to the eye
of the careful observer, appear the wires and
levers of political intrigue, thinly glossed
over with a veil of patriotism and honesty.
There is nothing dearer to the Italian heart
than the idea of a united Italy. It has been
the dream of her poets and statesmen for
centuries past, and now with Venice freed,
and Naples disenthralled, it lacks but the
addition of the Eternal City to make the
union complete. Rome is coveted by the
Imperialists as much as by the Revolution
ists. Victor Emmanuel is as eager to add
this last cem to his crown as Garibaldi or
Mazzini. But the King is pledged to non-in
terference, and to accomplish his object he
must find some instrument to execute his
designs whose ability is great enough to
consummate the object, whose fame is suffi
cient to rally around him a competent body,
of men, and whose shoulders are strong
enough to bear the burden of responsibility.
Italy has such a man in the person of the
devoted patriot and soldier Garibaldi. The
destiny of Italy was placed in his hands to
reach its fulfilment. It was announced that a
quarrel existed between him and King Vic
tor. This we believe was done to relieve
the latter of any responsibility in the matter
and to enable him also to co-operate, as we
shall see, with Garibaldi. The popular chief
tain then allied himself to the Party of Action,
and chose Mazzini for his political adviser.
In eloquent proclamations he announced his
intention to capture Rome and overthrovir the
temporal power of the Pope. He gathered
around his standard the young Revolutionists
of Italy, who were all eager to push on to the
completion of the glorious destiny of their
country. The. King, professedly to protect
the Papal territory,has massed large bodies of
troops upon the border, and is guarding the
Roman ports with ships of war. Through
this cordon, Garibaldi and • his handful
of troops cannot, of course, penetrate, and if
the assertion of a prominent French prelate
is to be accepted as true, it is not considered
advisable even by himself that he should do
so. Violence and bloodshed would pro
duce tod' much agitation and perhaps induce
French interference. But Garibaldi LS to re
main in the 'field, and keep up the revolu
tionary excitement Thus Victor Emmanuel
will have an excellent excuse for remaining
in his present position, and perhaps occupy
ing the outskirts of the territory until, he
acquires a permanefit foothold. The result is
evident unless France interferes, which she is
not likely to do in the present embarrassing
state of her relations with Prussia. Italy will
absorb Rome, and overthrow the Pepe.
This is a plain statement of the Roman
question which is exciting so much atten
tion. There ate Catholics in this country
who believe tht.t the Pope would be rendered
spiritually mere powerful by resigning his
temporal office. In Europe the feeling is
different, and tie pontiff is likely .to have the
sympMhy and 'moral support of the whole
Church on the continent in his trouble and
adversity. .
SHERIDAN AND HOWARD.
There seems•to be no doubt as to the fact
of General Sheridan's removals, but the reports
from Washington are conflicting as to the
disposition which has been made of him. One
account adheres to the plan which transfers
Sheridan to Hancock's present department;
while another asserts that Sheridan is to be
removed, and Hancock to retain his present
command. The facts of the case will doubt
less be made known by the official order, to
day-or to-morrow. It is further announced
that General Howard is to be relieved from
duty at the head of the Freedmen's Bureau,
and that,inthe event of General Sickles being
ordered to join his reciment as Colonel,
General Howard will assume his present com
mand.
This change of General Howard's duties
would probably be in accordance with his
own wishes. HIS position at the head`•of the
Freedmen's Bureau has subjected him to a
series of insults, annoyances and hindrances at
the hands of the "My Policymen" at • Wash
ington and at the South, which have been
almost unendurable. Again and again has
he sought relief from his onerous du
ties, made doubly hard by the
want of proper sympathy and support from
the Administration, but Mr. Stanton and
General Grant have known the worth of this
noble Christian soldier too well to be willing
\ to spare him from his post of duty, and so he
has held on, and has so well discharged his
difficult trust that it has come to be a com
mon saying among the bitterest Secessionists
at the South that the Freedmen's Bureau is
"their best friend."
General Howard's assignment to a military
district would probably be a personal relief
to him and would also be in accordance with
Secretary. Stanton's plan for reducing - the
cost of the service by' confining the brevet
and volunteer Major-Generals and other
high officers to their lineal rank in
the regular army. But it will also
be satisfactory to Mr. Johnson to
get a man of General Howard's firm and.
true principles At of the influential position
THE DAILY EVENING BULLETIN.-PHILADELPHIA, TUESDAY; AUGUST 20,1867.
he now holds. Be isnot of the sort:which the
President desires to have about him. A gal
lant iioldier, a devoted patriot, a loyal
Christian gentleman, he lms endeared himself
to the American people by his personal
worthiness to a degree enjoyed by very few.
WhOever he is, the people know that hie
wolk will be well and fearlessly done, and
their only regret will come from a fear that
Mr. Johnson will be neither able nor willing
to put half so good a man in his place at the
head of the Freedmen: a Bureau.
CURIOSITIES OF THE LAW.
A case was disposed of yesterday in the
Court of Quarter Sessions, which admirably
illustrates the beauties of the jury system.
A person named Linton was put on trial last
week for keeping his bar open on Sunday.
The testimony was direct, and, to all disin
terested persons, satisfactory. But it was
made to appear that the defendant had no
license, and as this was essential to the in
dictment, the Commonwealth abandoned the
case. A suit was then commenced against
Linton for selling liquor on Sunday
.. (his bar
not being technically "open"), and also for
selling without a license. The principal wit
ness was an intelligent, respectable and un
impeached witness. He went into Linton's tav
ern on Sunday and saw liquor served out at the
bar, but did not see the money actually paid.
No evidence was offered by the defendant,
and Judge Brewster instructed the jury that
they were to apply common sense rules of
presumption to the case, and that according
to the evidence the surroundings would jus-
tify one in supposing that liquor was sold
there; that bars were not kept up for the pur
pose of giving liquor away; and the fact that
the witness had to go to the rear of the house
to gain admittance was an evidence that the
defendant sought to cover his transaction
with secresy; and people who do not violate
laws do their business openly, not clandes
tinely. However, if there was a doubt, the
defendant should have the benefit of it.
Whereupon the jury promptly returned a ver
dict of Not Guilty. But this was not the end
of this peculiar specimen of legal proceedings.
Linton was next put on trial for not having a
license. On Friday he had been discharged
because he had no license. . On the Monday
following he was discharged because he pro
duced his license in Court. Verily, great are
the curiosities of the law, and wonderful is
the wisdom of some jurymen.

Return of Tswenty-three of the Jaffa
Colonists.
;Correspondence of the Boston Advertiser.]
BAR BARIUM. MT. DESERT, Me., Thursday,
Aug. 15, 1867.—The Jaffa: Colony, about which so
much bas been-said in the papers during the past
year, originated in this section. Twenty-three
of the ill-starred colony returned a few days
since, having been assisted to the State by
the charities of managers of steamship and
packet lines. Some of these persons tell
hard stories of Adams, the leader. They
look upon him as an impostor and swindler of
the deepest dye. Had it not been for the Ameri
can Consul in Jaffa, the colony would have
starved p 34 death for the want of means, Adams
having from the start managed to become the
custodian of the funds. Appearances would in
(Beate that the followers of Adams have become
sadly demoralized. Although rejoiced to again
tread the soil of their native heath, they
find themselves without cash _or property,
having invested and lost their all in the
visionary scheme of Adams. They left
theirlomes in good circumstances, and were all
or nearly all professing Christians of tke Baptist
or Methodist persuasion. Many of them now re
turn undone, entertaining the faith of the infidel.
After months of untold suffering the valJ is re
moved, and Adams, instead of being inspired of
God to raise up a "new nation" beneath the
Shadow of Jerusalem, was only a tool in the
hands of Brigham Young to establish and propa
gate Mormonism. The. Christian world is thank
ful for the failure of the Jaffa scheme.

General Grant's Administration,
Another Bar Meeting.
FIRST MEETING REPUDIATED.
JUDGE FISHER SUBTAINAD,
LATE INDIAN BATTLE.
FIGHTS BETWEEN INDIAN TRIBES.
From Washington.
tEDeelat Despatch to the Evening Bulletin, by Hamon'e
Independent News Agency.)
WAIMINGTON, Aug. 20.—Gen. Grant's adminis
tration of the War Department is creating no slight
astonishment. He ignores politics, and exacts
fidelity and merit as the only tests of promotion.
He has introduced a system of rigid economy.
All superfluous officers will be dismissed, and ex
penses will be reduced to the lowest point.
The Catgut is in session to-day, all the mein
bers being present except Secretary Browning,
who is absent from illness. General Grant is
present.
Rumors of more Cabinet changes are rife, but
they cannot be traced to a reliable source. It is
only known that all the members are ready to
resign if the President intimates a wish to that
effect.
(Correppondence of the Ameoefated Press.]
WASHINGTON, Ang. 20.—A meeting of about
thirty members of the bar of the District of Co:.
lumbla was held at the Court House this
morning. •
Hon. F. P. Blanton, on taking the chair, to
which he was called, said: "This assembling was
net for the purpose of expressing an opinion as
to the recent trial of Burratt, or anything
of a political character. It was undotibtedly
the duty of the lawyer to protect his client,butt he
shou'd not go to extreme lengths. When he saw
the law was administered his duty ceased. It
seemed strange to him that, in a trial where every
word was taken down and printed for the use of
the counsel, and when exceptions to the rulings
could so readily be taken, there should have
been any interruptions of the .harmonious feel
ings which should always exist between the
Beneh and the Bar.
A Committee was appointed. which reported a
series of resolutions,quoting the order of Judge
Fisher striking out the . name of Joseph H. Brad
ley, Sr., from the roll of the Court, and declaring
that the meeting of certain gentlemen held on
the 12th inst. to take action on that subject way
not a meeting of the Bar, disappro7ing of the ir
regular or extraordinary methods of reviewing
the orders or judgments of the Court..
For, In the words of a distinguished author.
"If a Judge makes an error, it can be corrected
in a Superior Court." To seek to accomplish
the object in any other manner is unprofessional.
It was a grave error to suppose that the rights of
attorneys could be maintained by personal vitu
peration or physical violence. On the contrary,
these rights should be secured according to the
rules of decorum. refinement and professional
courtesy.
The resolutions also assert the propriety nf the
Courts •pnnishine for contempt, endorsing
the language of the late Chief * Justice Branch on
the subject.
After debate, in which Messrs. Riddle, Thomp
son, 2anssey and others participated, the resolu
tions were adopted, and the meeting adjourned.
The Late Indian Battle.
ST. Louts, Aug. 20.—The battle reported from
Omaha between 200 Pawnee scouts and a large
number of Sioux, turns out to have been a fight
between 50 Pawnees and 100 Cheyennes at Plum
creek, at which the Pawnees took 15 scalps.. cap
tured 40 bead of cattle and two prisoners. Many
fiother Cheyennes are supposed to have been
lled and wounded, but carried off by their com
rades.
The Pawnees are now south of the Platte river,
hunting the Cheyehnes.
Seven Indians were killed by lightning at the
Yankton Agency on the tenth.
The Sioux and Crows had a battle near Fart
Stevenson, in which the latter were victorious.
•Several were killed on both sides. -
From North Caro Unit.
WITMLNGTON, N. C., Aug. 20i!—The Journa'
of Saturday .saysi--"We learn that U. S. Mar
shal Goodloe, apting under orders from Washing
ton city, ordered Deputy Marshal Neff, of this

WASHINGTON, Aug. 20.—The following order
was received in WaOington to-day :
HEADQUARTERS SECOND MILITARY DISTRICT,
CuaELEgrow, S. C., Aug. 17th, 1867,—Generat
Orders.—First. Before a post court, convened at
- the n G i rer, - Charleston, S. C. July 80th , 1867,
punt to authority from these Headquarters,
and of which Brevet Brigadier-General H. B.
Clent Is President, was arraigned and tried Wm.
T. McNelty, Captain of the steamer Pilot Bey.
Charge: Violation of paragraph 8, General
Orders, No. 'B2. Specification: In this, that W.
T McNelty, Captain of the steamer Pilot Boy,
did refuse to grant a first-class ticket and passage
to Miss Frances Rollen, from Charleston to Beau
fort, S. C., on his steamer, because of caste or
color.
All this at Charleston, S. .C., Monday, July
22d, 1867.
Plea—Not Guilty.
Finding—Guilty..
Sentence, to pay a fine, of $250.
Second—The evidence in this case shows that
on July 22d, 1867, the complainant, a respectable
female, was, because of het color, refused cabin
passage by the accused; who is the captain' of
the steamer Pilot Boy, a boat plying as a common
carrier between ports in this military district. It
was conceded on the trial that a general ride
enforcing this discrimination had been maintained •
on board the boat.commanded by the accused.
The guilt of the offender, in thus wilfully disre
garding the provisions of paragraph 8, General
Orders 32,prohibiting such unlawful distinctions,
is confessed and proved. So long as the laws
imposed civil and political disabilities be
cause of servitude or color, common carriers
were permitted to enforce the same dis
crimination among passengers. Such disabili
ties and usages have ceased, with slavery, to
have any legal sanction. Whatever belongs of
common right to citizens necessarily follows
the recognition of the blacks as citizens, and be
longs to them. The obligation of the common
carrier is defined by a jurist of authority as fol
lows: "If he carry passengers he must receive
all who offer, and seat all alike, unless there
be actual and sufficient reason for the distinc
tion, as in the filthy appearance, dangerous
condition, or misconduct of a passer:-
- pi. (Parsons on Mercantile law, page 207.)
Ti c observance of this rale has been enjoined
by orders from these-headquarters daily pub
lished for the information and guidance of all
concerned, and violation of the regulation thus
established must bo appropriately punished.
The proceedings, finding and sentence are
approved.
