have hay. straw and fodder under bar

economical to build large aud costly barns

Character.
Character ia an eminently personal
thing. bat a niau is in bis individual
uic-rns aud virtues, and not what men
judge hiui to be by his public manifesta
tions, constitutes uis character.
Men are not always what Ibey seem;
beuce society may accord, more or leas, lo
a man's character Ulan his actual merits
warrant
As a rule.iiersons are passed in a cominu
oily at ibeir true, social, intellectual and
moral north; yet there are manliest ex
ceplious lo lue rule.
Men not uuirequenlly act with apiwreul
virtue or uiagnauimity when nenber oi
these sentiment form an element of their
real character.' So wilh lhs con
verse ol this proposition.
There aie those w ho bare an exterior
bearing in the world which would seem lo
conceal their virtues; are so constituted as
to be belter than they appear. But all
genuine character baa its oasis in sterling
virtue. Whatever elements enter into iu
comiiositioQ, it is essentially detective
without this. Nothing 'can compensate
tor the waul ol moral principle in a mau
or woman. Virtue is the very jewel ot
character thai which pertecta and crowns
It.
Habits ol love, piety and truth; habits
ol lalaehouu, passion, or goodness, niouiu
and fashion it, nil, at length, it wears Ibe
likeness ot an angel; or the image ol a de
mon I '
lie b but poor workman who hopes to
build the temple ot coaracter on any oiner
foundation than that ot moral excellence.
In the coniiicU of life there are many
duues and temptations to weak and irreso
lute minds to yield principle to supposed
interest, virtue to gain; but the man of
character sees in the maintenance of the
right all that is sacred to personal and in
ward quiet, and hence, by determined
w ill, pursue the even tenor ot his way.
W hatever else such a spirit can not say,
in respect to the things ot this lile, he can
alwae aav wilh the Bard of Avon,
-1 feel within nie
A peace above all earthly dignities,
' A still aad quiet amJrlence."
Such persons are the true types and or
nament of human character. It we have
any caaoiluy lor tue aumirauon
of the .beautiful, or any love lor
the kitty and pure in character, we must
instinctively love sucn, lor tuey uave
the divine stamp of morality and moral
loveliness.
Character is largely determined by one s
associations in life. There is no liule
force ia the trite utterance that - "a man s
character is known by the company be
keeps.
Id speaking of tbe influence ol associa
tion upon men, an excellent writer ob
serves with as much truth as quaintness,
he who comes from the kitchen smells of
it smoke; be who adheres to sect has
something of cant; the college air pursues
the studeut, and dry inhumanity htm wbo
herds with literary pedants."
1 a : is undoubtedly true. 1'ersous gen
erally reflect tbe spirit, and express in
their cnaiacters we wisdom or lony, me
vii tues or vices of their associates. As
all associations ct this nature are purely
voluntary, every person indicates his taste
for intellectual culture, social refinement.
or the contrary by Uie character of those
he select as biscompanioos. Worse than
no society at all, infinitely worse, is that
of the yulgur and vicious. Patent lo any
reflecting npnd is the fssettioi) that ' '"IT
meet that Ruble minds keep ever with their
likes." .
The imjiortanpe ot a good character can
not be overestimated (is bcfcriag ua in
dividual happioevs, Dot to speak t its in
fluence on the well-being ot others, is ut
terly unappreciated.
The book ot all books declares that "a
good name is better than riches," and all
experience but confirms the truth ot the
declaration.
Iticbes are but temporary as is the good
they impart. Fame won. save in the
cause of virtue ha bo substantial basis.
Power wield its sceptre bat tor a day.
But a good name is a joy, a crown, an in
heritance tor ever; it can never die, be
cause virtue is Imperishable.
Would we, reader, have a character
yielding us the highest possible enjoy
ment in lite, and such as shall live as an
element ot beauty and power alter we are
deauif Lt ne. then, build oa virtue and
goodness, and our futute will be made lor!

We give below an accouut of the pro
ceedings in the Grecvy case, which ia on
trial al Bedford, as taken from the Oa
zttte. An article similar in almost every
respect, appears In the Inquirer. ED.
KILE V TllO.U. M. UBfcEVY.
The case ot the member of the Bed
ford Bar, petitioner against Thos. U.
Greevy, to show cause why he should not
be dismissed from his of lice ot attorney, was
called tor bearing at the adjourned court
on Tuesday. This case has attracted consid
erable interest and quite a number of per
sons from Bedford, a well as from a dis
tance, assembled iu the court room to hear
what dibjiosiiion would be made of iu
Messrs. J. H. Longeneckerand J . M. ltey
nolds represented the petitioners for tbe
rule, and Messrs. It M. Speer, .of Hun
tingdon, ltulus. E. Shapley, of 'Philadel
phia, and Johu Cessna, appeared tor tbe
resiiondent
Air. Speer presented the answer of the
tespondent, Mr. Greevy, aud asked leave
of the Court to read it to which his Hon.
Judge Hall, replied lhat under tbe prac
tice of the court it was proper that ihe
court should first examine tbe paper to see
if it contained such matter as was proper
to be read and tiled. Tbe court took the
paper tor examination and at 7 o'clock
when the court met in tbe evening, it was
banded to Mr. Sneer who read it and ask
ed permission to have it tiled, to which
tbe court agreed with the exception ot the
parte affidavits which were oidtrtd to
be stricken trom it as not properly a part
of the answer, nor permissible as evidence
under the rules of court
The answer ol Mr. Greevy is iu sub
stance as follows:
1- That the petition on which the rule
was issued is insufficient lierauw not veri
fied by atlidavitasi'cquired by the rule of
2. That Greevy was not at any time and
is not now professionally engaged in the
case ol Alden and Hamlin, and that he
was present in court during the trial as a
witness and a journalist, and the affidavits
ot Alden and Hamlin and of Messrs. Cess
na, their counsel, are given in support ot
their denial.
3. That tbe publication complained ot
was made by respondent solely as editor
and publisher of a public newspaper.wilh
out malice and only tor the public good.
4. That tbe court, under tbe constitu
tion and laws of the State, in this form of
procedure, ha no jurisdiction of the issue
raised by the petition and answer. Tbe an
swer then further adds that tbe foregoing
is a sufficient answer to the rule; but to
avoid being misunderstood by silence the
respondent declares that he did not in any
way attempt to influence the action of the
jurors in the case of Alden and Hamlin;
that in the publication complained of be
desired "to state tbe tacts as witnessed by
him" in the interest ot truth ani justice,
snd that if he did not do so. be invites tbe
petioners to call him to the proper forum,
a jury, "that all questions of fact maybe
legally determined." Tbe answer closes
with the suggestion that the petitioners
are guilty ot manifest indelicacy in requir
ing n:m to appear befoiethe Judge, in a
summary proceeding to defend "tbe truth
of a publication alleged by them to lie a li
bel on th! PresidcLt Ju ke himself." snd
in "asking the same Judge to hear and
determine disputed question ot fact and
motive, involving bis own official conduct
and character, as well as the rights ot tbe
people involved in the freedom ot tbe
press."
His Honor Judge Hall then announced
to tbe counsel what was involved, in bis
judgment in the proceeding before him.
stating that Mr. Greevy was not before
him to answer for contempt, nor was tlie
proceeding against him as an editor and
lhat in consequence the liberty of the
press was in no way involved.
This then narrowed the issue to the
simple proposition as to whether there had
been a breach of kit profeuional fidelity
as charged against nr. Greevy by the peti
tioners. Mr. Reynolds, on behalf of tbe petition
ers atked permission if the court to call
Mr. Keeffe, the officer who bad charge of
Ihe jury in tbe case of tbe Com. vs.. Aklen
and Hamlin, to prove that one oi the coun
sel for the defendants approached him
three times during the night while be had
the jury in charge and desired to know
how they stood snd that the same counsel
approached the door in the court room, to
listen when he was ordered away, and
that this conduct was communicated to
Judge Hall the next morning just as he
was going on the bench.
He also ottered to prove by Mr. Gepbart
the Court Crier, that Ihe same counsel was
seen standing at the other door ot the jury
room, at tbe head or stairs leading thereto,
while the jury were deliberating aad that
their conversation could be heard. The
counsel offered this evidence as he stated
for the purpose ot showing that this was
one of the causes whicU led the court to
administer its rebut eon the next morning
t'i the counsel when a motion was present
ed to have tbe jury polled, the court be
lieving that the counsel had knowledge ot
what tbe verdict of tbe jmy was. That
Mr. Greevy knew of this as the cause of
tbe reprimand, that be was ia court when
the counsel admitted that he bad asked
Kct ffe bow tbe jury stood and said that be
thought be had a right to do that and fur
ther as a part of the offer to show that Mr.
Greevy with this knowledge rushed into
the public prints, denounced the court as
tyrannical and supei eased the f&cti which
lead to the occurrence in court
Messrs. Speer and Shapley vigorously
resisted this ofler stating that it was an at
tempt to bring in a side issue, and that tbe
conduct of other counsel in connection
with tbe Cass about which Mr. Gteevy
had commented, had nothing to do with it '
Mr. Longencc'ier claimed that their sup
pression of the whole occurrence, and hU
publication ot a one side rej ok sl.owed
the motive of m dice.
Tbe court decided to hear the testimo
ny. .
Messrs. Speer and Shipley then aske I
leave and obtain jd jermission to with
draw from the case. Tbe evidence of
Keeffe and Gepbart was then heard sub
stantially as stated in the offer, they swear
ing that the counsel wbo attempted to gain
tbe information was Mr. J. B. Cessna who
was associated with John Cessna in the
trial of the cause. ,
Mr. Longenecker then opened tbe argu
ment on behalf ot the pet iliooers remarking
upon the character of this proceeding ;
that in its attempt to suppress interference
with sworn jurors tbe court should be up
held by members of the bar and must not
be balked in its purptss by a mam tier of
Ibis bar ; that Greevy hati published a dis
torted statement ot what had occurred Hi
court suppressing any relureauc to tue U i
professional condacl bich bad called lo..b
trie tebukeot Mr. CcseiM ; that this had
been done coucctnmg a case a'.ill peodiui;,
Tjui iuipioper motives, to bung ouiuw
' upon the emit, that this was caso ut
Such bud lailb lo tbe Court and such uu-
! prolcssional behailr on tue pa t ut
ureevy as called lor bis dismissal from this
lair, cuing authorities to sustain this view.
Mr. Greevy spoke in his own behalf
staling that he published the article tor
the public good ; that he believed them to
b true and if an opportunity was ottered
conkt prove that they were true.
Mr. Reynolds then closed for the peti
tioners, and claimed thai sir Greevy had
vio'a'eJ lis a h as attorney by his publica
tion, and that this was a ground tor dis
missal cr suspension from office. That
the articles in his newspaper were unjust
false and libelous toward the court, in that
he suppi cased the tacts in his posesstou
aud gave an incorrect statement of ail thai
did occur, that he was not here to answer
as an editor, but as a lawyer for a .breach
of his professional fidelity towarl the
'Jourt That the publication showed that
it was written with malice, and tor the
purpose ot creating unjustly, a public s.-n-timent
against tbe Court
The matter is now in the hands oi the
court and a decision will be rendered at i n
early day.
