public relations. is not hl private., Individual matter to
be tnanaged mud dealt w th as be likes. The question
of its treatment and con Mon In any particular ease is .
au al.& of vital moment to each and to all. It is empha
tically a pectic concernment. In a certain sense the
bralnof man belongs to Society. If he adopt any course

'in virtue of Its:very existence, which. so far as the in

bound to Interfere. The minor derangements of the

Mons of the cerebral system. which revolutionize conduct
and character, it cannot neglect without flagrant recro.

•The r:ght of Government to. interdict the use of In-
toxigating Liquors as beverages is. therefore the right to I
prevent' tho undermining of its own finandations—the I
central - right of self-defence and ..selfoxistence. I have
shown - that Alcoholic Liquors. by their preeminent
malign action upon the brain and mind, tend to disrupt
all civil relations. The obedient citizen they transform
into a reckless and turbulent violator of the law; they
are thus the nattiral enemies of Government. and should
be so treated--ilie inspirers of lawlessness, their own
fate should. be outlawry: It is no impertinent or offen
sive interference with private personal concerns to inter
pose authority and prevent a magi from turning himself
into a fool, a mauler or a criminal.. The obligations of
Government and the Individual are reciprocal. Govenal
meat owes to theindlvidual protection of natural rights:
the individual owes to Government obedience to law. If
the individual fall in fulfilling his part of the contract,
it is the prerogative of Government to enforce compliance
with it. If the citizen indulge in any habit which, in
Its nature, tends directly to .disqualify him for the just
discharge of his civil responsibilities. Government has
the necessary right of interference to the utmost extent
of its power. If the the effect of Alcohol in the brain
be to put a man beside himself and make him incapable,
of working out the task which 'belongs to his manhood,
it is the duty of Government to see to It that he donut
alcoholize his brain. If the eff,xt of these liquors be, as
Science demonet rites and universal experience yerifies, so

the case. Indeed to remove such obstacles as this to

that Government is for. If its purpose be anything else
than to furnish comfortable nestling places fur mousing
demagogues ; if it bare any other aim than to attend to
the collection of money and its disbursement among its'

in all its sital bearings, fall within the domain of legis
lative adjustment.
Brit It is pure folly toUltempt to raise the 'question of
governmental authtuity its this case. The legislature
is driven to action by a neeeksity that it cannot escape.
It has no option- but mu:it act. 'The i lntluence of Alcohol
over human conduct is sminexorablefact, which Govern
ment can neither deny-nor ignore. The question is not
'really whether it will or will not act, but simply what
kin .1 of action It a ill take. It attempted to manage the
hilbjk,et long ago. as the policy of -gal license boars wit
ness. Let UP ASe how that method worked :
The License system applied the principle of prohibition
to the mass of peenle. It forbade ninety:utile In a
liundibel to deal in aieobelic liquors. Whatever injustice .
or opposition or vi.daci ni of rights is' contained in the
principle of Prohibition. the bulk of the people experienc
rq many years since. Still in the case of a few, Govern
ment contradicted the principle which it enforced on the
many. All that was offeni.ive In governmental reside
t ions it intlicttid upon the great majority of the citizens,
and then crowned thezict by opening wide the slhiees of
the trade, Aid granting to a favored few a monopoly of
the prefits. But, at the %SCUM time that it distinctly
affirmed the Prohibitory principle, what was the import
of its action—or rather counteraction—in, opening the
business to a small number ? Governmental license of
t ha sale of intolleating it iu ws as beverages is equivalent
to governmental consent to their rue as such. l per

and in demanding what It assumes can be obtAned—

--Government functions the purposes for which the sale
is made, and thus intlerstss; legally and morally, the
habit of drinking. Now, habits of drinking naturally
lead to habits of intoxication. germ rated liquors long
since vindicated their claims to the title of nenxiarting
liquors. The use of theta stimulants naturally 'grows
upon men, distil in very numerous cases it overmasters
tne.a. U wer.i.o nit tliwebra. In extending to the traffic

crimes. The License system makes provisbin for the

The citizen drinks he drinks for the pleastire, exhilara-

Alcohol works its natural effect—intoxicates. and makes

It invited its prisoner to the act which produced the
crime; If it now discharge hint it must stand in his
plate as the guilty party. To avoid this it decides to
c vlet and declares the prisoner guilty. But upon what
basis? Government replies through its judge: " You
" cannot be allowed to plead insanity in extenuatiou of
your crium. fur that cmdiiion was voluntarily brought
e• on. It would be a dang..rous doctrine to excuse you
• on such ground, as every culprit would plead intoxi

then hang a man for the natural consequences cf put

I have assumed a ease to make clear the principle; but
it is hardly fiction. Such exact words stay not &0 0 , 8
between juige and culprit-but instances are eentintrtilly
arising in the courts where the facts ,would abundaftly
warrant the language. John Burnet and George Sorn
berger of Schoharie left the tavern of Solomon Pratt
drunk„,.,{fn this state Barnett killed Sornbtrger, and
WSUI triad and executed, Michael Sanford, counsel fur
the defence, said on the trial:
" 'The traflic In rum produced - this unhappy result;
hastened Sornherger unwarned to Lite tribunal of his
Maker, deprived bils wife of her chnien companion, ills
children of their earthly protector, and brought thin,
' prisoner, if he be executed. to an - untimely death. 'lt'is
an unrighteous law that commissions one clam of men
to , deel out to another class an agent to produce crime,
erhileat the unto time it provides prisons and affixes
penalties to punish all such offences. I hate this law,
and its miserable effects have led me for.twenty rare;
past to raise my, voice in behalf of temperance. , These'
landlords (commissioned by &learnt:tient) are themselv .!tt
responsible for the crimes of their victims,
,and if the r
little burning hells were shut up, man might go o

How to deal With crime .committod under the haft
'met: of Intoxication lime long been a thorny problem for
jurists. The rule which Uoverlatrierit establishes,-.to'
make the drunkard responsible, is one which it applies
tomo other c ..se. In many instances mental alienation
IS voluntarily introduced ity habits which. are entirely
under the iudividual's control; but Government does
art go beyond the insanity Pselt to Inquire into the
uaturo of the cause which produced it.. As Judge Story
remarks : Many species of insanity arise from what,
" to a moral point of view, is a criminal neglect or fault
"of the party l -as from religions Melancholy, undue
ws;xisure, eztrayagant pride; and yet'snch insanity
has always 1)C41 deemed a sutillent eianse for any
'-crime done under Its Influence." The difficulty of

SATURDAY, Nov,E,milEa 10, 1855.
PASSMORE
On Saturday last there terminated one of'
the most glaring ni:ts of injustice; one of the
most tyrannical usurpations of. power, on the
part of a single individual iu a free State,
that ever disgraced the page . of. American
history. On Saturday, Judge Kane, irf the
United States District Court at Philadelphia,
released from a cell in Moyamensi:4 PrigOu;
an innocent man; a man who had been im- :
mured for three months; deprived of liberty;
the coinforts - of his home; the society of his
Wife and children; the companiousbip of
friends, and for what? What his offence=
On the '2oth o: July;lBss, Passmore William
son says, under his solemn affirmation:
"He cannot have the bodies of Jane, Dan
id and Isaiah, or either of them, before yOur
Honor, as by the said writ he is commanded,"
and was committed for contempt, because he
had "not returned truthfully to the writ of ha
beas corpus." •
On the 3d of November, 1855, Passmorc
Williamson says, under his solfmn affirma.
tion :
"I verily believed that it was entirely im
possible fir me to produce the, said . persons
agreeably.to . the command of the Court," and
was disaarged from contempt.
~,
The first means,—"l did' not prod Id.
_thebodies,
bodies, because I could hot;"—the last cleans ;
"I did not produce the bodies, (or geek.t”bey
the writ, by producing the persons,) becatfse,,!
I believed I could not."
!• . .
When some modern Solon ' discovers the
difference betiveert tweed/edum arid tweedledee,
we may comprehend the distinction 'in fact,
between Passmore Williamson's answer to the
writ on the 20th of July 1855, and his ails!
wer to the interrogatories.of the Court on the.
3d instant: .
•
In remarking upon this eclatatit act of re
pentance and submission, the Tribune. thinks
that it it 'had bees sooner made, .Tudge Kane
Might have founded upon it some hope of re
gaining some portion of those relies of .pul r
lie esteem, which'may possibly have remained
to him, after his conduct in the Christiana af
fair; but now it comes too late, and is too ev;
idently enforced by that supreme power of
public opinion, to which even the most obstit
nate and audacious offend r must sooner or
later bow. But the ill effect of this matter iS
not confined to Judge Kane alone. It had
deeply shocked the public confidence in the
admitri,stration of justice in general, and .id
the efficacy of •our laws to secure the most 84
cred rights. - To be a judge was once a
.titly.
of respect, but at this rate, it must soon ,bed
come the contrary. People talk sometimes of
radicals and destructives, who sap the foutida
tints of society, and undermine the basis o
public morals; but, a judge like Kane, doe:t
/ more at a single blow to shake the social fat
. brie, and . retard the progress of a .peoplts
that the vices of private criminals in half 4
century. : .
-In any other northern city. than Philadelr
pbia, such an outrage as that, which for more
than a ,quarter of a year, Mr. Williamson, ha
been the victim, would have provoked publi . ,
disturbance. Certainly there was never -ati
occasion in which a revolutionary remedy
would have seemed more truly justifiable.--t
But the result, as it now stands r . puts thosei
in the right, who hold that , violence shoulcl
never be - employed even for a right end.-1
Passmore Williamson comes from his prisms'
at the peaceful fiat of public opinion—released
by the justice of his cause, and the voluntarji l
submission of the tyrant who immured hinssr
In connection with this matter, we will stet el,
that on Tuesday last, Judge Kane was nerved
with a summons, at the residende of his ; brof
ther-in law,•George Leiper, Esq., in Delawatall
county, to auswer she suit of Passmore Will`
liamson, for trespass and imprisonment:4
Williamson swoops to this revenge quicklyll

of the judicial district in .which the suit hasf
been brought, will meet this modern- Jeffreysi!
and check his one man power. And even if ,
carried to the Supreme Court of the State
the people of; Pennsylvania will see that jus-f
lice is meted out by an unprejudiced and ini .
corruptible judiciary.. t
Firr ou CosTamrr.--If ; the Phibidelphittli:
Ledger, when it terms the suit brought by Mr
Williamson against Judge Kane for false in4l
prisonmeut, ridiculous, really expresses itc
opinion of the value of personal liberty, wcf,
pity it.. If hoWerer, the assertion is prompt•

in reference to our village, which] detuandi smite
strictures on the part Of otircitizeins`,since ,Jeplaces
us in a very anfavorablo light, id some reSpecti at
least, before the readers of your widely circulated
journal. Yua will therefore pleksejpermit me,' in
the . name of ;the citizens of Doilalilson, to expeSe
some of the gross fallacies d andanjustifiable
clams of your correspondent.
In the first place we are represented ai being
so completely " hemmed in" by mouittaifie, that
but "very tent strangers find their Way , in"and if
in, find it difficult to getout nide, "without the
aid of a guide." Now iraPpeurs ve'iy clearly that
the gnntlennin was ainiinglat "Cricking' a good
joke, but unfortunately he has; made very Hide
progress in the act. We should however not itt-J
['heifer° with his peculiar propenisiiy to make lea,
if he bad onl; indulged in it in: a manner little
more in keeping with the truth mid good breeding;
but under the circumstances, we se decidedly of
the opinion that it would not be uutof plate to re
mind him of tie fact, that, if a Matt makes fun tit
other people''s expense, he must abide the conse
quences. Donaldson, it is true, is Surromided
mountains, which do, however, form not serious
barrier to its: facilities of c'emmuaicatioti. It is
easy of access from three or four different
•
1 I ~
tions, by Railroad and otherwise, and not "very
few," but 'rerg mull strangers find their way in
'and out too, Without the aid of a guide, and henc,,
it was a matter of great surprise te us to learn
that any per'sun should have had difficulty, in
finding his way hero, or if here, should have not
been sufficiently wide awake to pal atray l Without
first getting S€:,LIIC one to show him the way.
Secondly, he has also expended some of hii'
coarse witicillms on our productiohs, which cone
sists, chietlY, he thinks, in "coal and children.
We do. nut suppose that this part of his remarkable
production will seriously affect the ibusiness men
and inuthors of Donaldson, either 'fur Weid or for,
wo; yet we are of the opinion that neithiof thedi
will thank hint fur thadompgallantryhe hutigh4
proper thus lo award them. We Ohuletherofore
leave, th4 ; matter in ; their own hands, iintl bring
our strictures to a clbse, by simply 41ding, for the
benefit of Nr.'.Frauklinflouse," that

COM111:111tATED.
B. BANNA.N 1 Dear Sir:—Thu alreatly large con-,
sumption of P Rails in the Coal Region, and the.
daily ;increasing demand for this description ot
Iron, makes its matter of personal interest to every??
Coal Operator, that he should knew the quality of
Iron hest adapted to his wants. With your per.
mission, I will state a few facts which may not be;
out of place, to present to the readers of the
, nit/. In remarking on the respectiye tendencies'
m .
the two kieds of Iron used fur T Rails—namely,.
the sell (throat!, Iron and the hard,l we will first?
consider the employment of T Rails t , there very. }
design being to furnish a bard, susectih and" 110-=1
changeable surface fur wheels to relnipon, and?
are consequedpyliable to friction—Which in time
=produces comtression. T. 7, Rails thee made out ciri
thin 4uality of Iron whidh will best resist these,:
tendencies that all T-Raila are liable to, must un.;'
doubtedly he the best. The cohesive face of soft
fibrous Iron bhing such that when a?
th compressive'',
face is applied it—as in the case T Rails, the , .
area of its section ut right angles td the face, ex.i
• pands anti eadses a roughness to acute which seta, :
as a retarding kntluence to the motion, and not
frequtintly is the cause of accident. ? • .
The cohe-liye face of bard Ir, n un tho etheil
hand, is such that when a shellac fine:is applied
to it; the area; of its section at right 'angles to tho
face wi put cixpand, but Wear nud Present a uni.l
form Sinctoth iurface,,which exerts ad acceloratingl
influence to the motion. These are facts that catt4}
not ho disputed by any one paying ; the stnallest.
attention to wear and tear of T Rails.
And anothei important truth in . connection with,
this is, that Tirtaile made from soft: fi brous Iron!
are more liable to . be injured, by the action of thou
Aline Water, from the fact that this , quality con=,!
tains R greater portion or carburet ,of Iron than]
that of the hard granular Iron. Every Coal Ope
rator must have noticed the same principle ut works
in the. inferiority of ,tho wrought to thu cut spike
in resisting tho corrosive tundenclet of the mind
water. 'lf ;
The inference then, which these facts appear td
draw, is, that the bard granular quafitpof Iron hi)
T Rails is superior in all oases where compression.
is the test, to the soft fibrous qualit3i 'which excelii.
only in cans where cehrsion is the to t. A.
Thb aliov+ is from a gentleman who has
been engagdd in the Iron business its: thiS
Region for aseries of years, and thoroughli
conversant with the matter. Thel effect of, the )
mine water !Ton T rails made ;from soft, WI
brous i!ron, is fully equal to 21.1 per cent..lossi
The feet will have due weight with the Coal
operatok, whose ditty it is to economize ad
much as poSsible in the variouS branches of
his busitiess, Coming from a practical man,
the statements ensbraked in the! ahnve cont
I
ninnieation, "are worthy of ntteption.
