"Wasn't that u hint, eh ! 1 looked" at
Nancy, but she turned away her head, and
at this I was up the ladder to bed. I was
boiling over nud with all crcatiou Bill,
Nancy and the old Deacon in particular.

I felt so bad I couldn't go to sleep. Like

A Boston jury ha3 rendered u verdict I
of damages to tho amount of thirty-two
thousand' five hundred dollars iu favor of
Leonard Sturtcvatit against A II. Allen
for illegal arreit aud imprisonment.
Mr. Siurlcvanl, at tho outbreak of hos
tilities, was transacting business iu New
Orleans. Ho removed to Bostou 1 and
was arrested oud imprisoned upou charges
of dijloyilty preferred by Mr. Allcu. The
sequel is as wo have above stated , but it
may be well to relic ct that, in such eases

tho defendant to imprisonment.
Wo Welcome this sign of return to tho
legitimate channels of justice iu the com

more au.-piciou bccauc it is made visible

in pronouuein equitable judgments upan
persecution, there is good prospect that
the example will ho followed eUowhcre.
Let the petty tyrants, informers aud
tradticers, that luvu plied their infamous
vocations with impunity throughout the
past fuur yean, prepare themselves to un
dergo the ordeal of legal iuvestigation and
punishment. False imprisonment, it teems,
is again to bo recognized as a tran-jics-iou
of the law There is a bioad field
for justice to be bu-V iu, iu that direction .
There are hundreds of honorable and pa
triotic citizens jn tho North, who have
been snbjuotod to outrages similar to that
for which .Mr. Sturtevaut has recovered
damages. There are men, guiltless of
crime, w ho have languiibcd fur months
i ii dungeons, their business iiiiorrupud ,
their minds enfeebled, their healths im
paired, their prospects iu life blasted by
long and protracted incareei'.iti u.
From the damp and dismal vaults
where thuse viwtiuis of arbitrary power
und of false accusation have been immured,
soma have been dismissed only to be
transferred to luttalio asylums. They
have gonu mad under tho tortures of con
finement, harsh treiitmeut and suspense.
Others have perished miserably in their
prisons. Othars huve contracted diseases
in the dark and noissoice solitudes uf their
cells. Womeu, delicately reared and
keeuly miceptiblc to the shauio and pri
vations of imprisonment, have been torn
from their homes and families, and locked
up beyond tho reach of trial; all for the
expression of political opiuiou,o r, in many
cases, at the mere in tigttion of person ul
