MUNROE STEWART
In Tuesday's Post we gave it as our deliberate
opinion, all the facts of the case being consid ,
ered as they might to be considered, in a plain
and common sense view, that Munroe Stewart
was innocent of the crime of murder and should
receile a pardon at the hands of the (;over.
nor. It seems to tig that no one who looks at
the case without prejudice, and =trips it of ~11
legal technicalities, can doubt the correctness
Of our position. The three defendants we r e
tried together, and at the time of the trial
public sentiment,horrified with the outragequs
nature ofthe, crime seemed to demand the con ,
victim' of all who atthis. - moment were sup
posed to have been connected with its per
petration, It was manifest that File acid
Stewart had an acquaintance as shop-anat:)s
of a short duration ; they were stranNg rs
in M'Keesport, and naturally sought one
another's society, and when the one was ar
rested for crime,nothing could be more natur , .
al than that the other should be susp, eted of
complicity. At the inception of the criminal
design, Charlotte J ones alone knew the fact
that her uncle and aunt had money, and her
avaricious nature and fiendish desire to retain
Fife as her paramour, prompted the murder.
She hated. Stewart because he, as she believed,
was making efforts to intluce Fife to leave lief.
She would not confide the murder to him aful
share the proceeds of it. Nor did Fife intrust
the secret to Stewart, otherwise he would
have shared the murder and Charlotte woMd
have stood watch ig place of acti‘ely
Participating in the crime, as she did. It is
ab,urd to suppose that Stewart was an accesso
rronly, the argument of the Dispatch that he
was a principal, from the allegation that time
was blood upon his clothes, is not warrant
ed by the other facts in the case. Stewart is
either guilty; of murder, or is innocent of
all criminal knowledge of the taking of the lite
of the two old people. We firmly believe he
stands iu the latter position and should he
pardoned at once, and not be permitted to r e .
main in a state of suspense almost worse than
death itself. lie has'sertainly suffered enough
already, both mentally and bxlily for being
found in had-company, which in the opinion
of nine -tenths of the community is the extent
of his criminality. The theory that Stewart
was no(preseut at the inurder,but he had pre
vious' knowledge that it lo com-
untied, we cannot lor a moment !,clieNe.-
The relation between himself and Charlotte
Jones precludes a supposition of ~ 1 1,•11 know
edge, and if Fife had trusted low with it,
would have insisted on his active pnrocipation
in the affair, No, Stewart is innocent, and
Governor Packer should pardon him. Th 4..
voice of the community, as of one man,
this. The jury which tried him arc satisliol
of his innocence, or at least that there is now
a sufficient doubt of his guilt to entitle hot,
to an acquittal. Public justice and the wel
tare of the community should be satisfied with
the punishment of two persons who were , ' 7-
tainlti guilty, and does not demand the blood 4.1
one whose unfortunate association with bad
company has brought him to his present
strait. For all he has done, he has been
sufficiently punished, and we trust that Gov
ernor Packer will regard his ease, stripped of
all legal technicalities and side scenes, and
apply to it the strong common sense and noun i
judgment which he possesses. This loin we
look upon the pardon of Munroe Stewart as a
certainty. The most rigid regard for public
justice and the supremacy of the laws do not
demand the execution of a man unless all the
circumstances point to his guilt, with the most
unerring certainty, and in this case no such
certainty exists. On the contrary the sound
est, the most judicious and most unprejudiced
minds am:-ng us believe Munroe Stewart in
nocent of the crime of which he has been con
victed and for which his life must be cut short
next week, unless the Governor steps in and
exercises that power with which he has been
entrusted, to meet exactly such cases as we
conceive this one to be.
NEWSPAPt , IIt WRITKRS
The writers for the daily political newspa
pers are certainly a most wonderful class of
men. Day after day, month after month, and
year after year they can treat their readers to
a disquisition upon a single subject, and yet
they always, apparently at least, give some
thing new, or, at all events, present their sub
ject in a new light and with new forms of ex
pression, I Suppose all which has been written
upon the subject of Kansas, for instance, was
to be printed in volumes and bound in books.
The aggregate would form a Bodleian Library
It is astonishing that men can produce from
their brains such a mass of words upon a sim
ple theme, and yet we see every day that it is
done. The multifarious essays upon "Kan
sas," which everywhere meet our eyes the
columns of newspapers, haVe called to our
memory the following paragraph, which Thom
as Carlyle, in his quaint style, wrote many
years ago about newspaper writers. Ile says :
" But, indeed, the most unaccountable ready
writer of all is, probably, the common editor
of a daily newspaper. Consider the leaden
articles, what they treat of, how passably they
are done. Straw that has been threshed a
hundred times without wheat ephemeral
sollud of a sound ; such portent of t e hour
as all men have seen a hundred times turn
out inane ; how a man with merely human
faculty buckles himself with new rigor and
interest to this threshed straw; nightly threshes
it anew, nightly gets up new thunder about
it ; and so goes on .. L.Llv v iling and
‘ :,,civilering
for a considerable' seNig of year's ; this k a
fact remaining still to bL acciointed f or o l

WE publish in another column a communi•
cation from a prominent lawyer in this city,
in relation to Munroe Stewart. which gives
'the governor a clear case for a respite. We
should prefer a pardon in full, but do not con
sider that Stewart would run any risk, under
the circia/usttuioas, in a new trial.

For many ytars Pittsburgh has been ann.2sl.
ignored by the press of the Eastern cities.
While towns of not half as much commercial
importance west of us were daily mentioned
in the Telegraphid and Market Reports, Pitts
burgh has been passed over us if it were a
country village, and no mention made of it or
its business. The recent law reqpiring the
publication ot weekly bank statements is
however w,trk in. , a change. Since 11 went into
op ration, we find l'ittsbnA regularly—Then
tinned in the tooncy articles of the Eastern
p ipers. The fact that so large an amount ol
capital is used here, seems to have caused the
writers to think that our city is of some small
commercial importance. The publication of
hank sta ements has caused this One a ivans
tags to our city, if no other. In this 'Ounce.-
'lion we in:ty remark, that could our large
manufacturers of iron glass, &c. &c., be in
duced to c,‘lverteq mor lib, rally, and lot the
public abroad know what is done and doing
in l'it!sburgh, our city would reap a decided
dvantage therefrom. There is in this respect
its:- enterprise among our leading business
men than in other cities, and leas than there
should be, if they wish to advance their own
interests materially and permanently.

The above Calls to our i«tollection a similar
story which went the !minds some years ago
in relation Lu a country store keeper in Miss
issippi. his customers, most of them wealthy
planters from the surrounding country, were
in the habit of buying on long credits, settling
once - a year after the cotton crop was disposed
of. One day—au unusually busy one with
him for an unusually largo numberof his cuss
touters had calk(' in—he recollected to have
sold a saddle which he had forgotten to charge
upon his books, and to save his Lie he could
not remember which of his many patrons had
been the purcliiiser lie looked over their
names in the index of his ledger to refresh his
memory, but, all to no purpose. Finally he
conceived a bright idea and resolVed to charge
a saddle to each and every account of his plan
tation mighbors, taking it for 4ranted that
when settling time " came all Would dispute
the item save the actwil purchaser of thesads
die. Having suld one, he charged upwards
of thirty saddles and when settling day did
n of lin, customers actualf . t, paid
for the saddle without dispute or remark. The
story was originally told as an iilustratii - ie of
the loos. manilla of doing business in NI i-zsi;•s
-ippi, in the day- or styli institutions as the
Brandon Hank Tho saddle was well sold at
all events and tho tradesman kept hit own
counsel.

Al) Ashley's Peal in Me'ota Steal
Ab Ashley was a live Hoosier, notorious
for everything, iu g;•ut , ral, and stealing melons in
partieniar. In tnel.,o time he was the dyad ui
the wh:de net&,irli,r),!, fir when he visited a
Fitch, he male it a rule never to leave until it
was entirely destroyed. This was a singular
trait of his chara,:ter----:komething unacc,ountahle
—for, aside from that, he was considered one °t
itle best fellows in the world. Stealing melons,
and plundering patches, seemed to be part of his
nature, for it was evident that it did not Luise
fr, m uoy nigg o rly disposition ur selfish motives.
lle was a real opera Least eel kind of an individual,
always gr, wing Ink ,re melons than anybody else,
aid giving Op m away moire. ft rely than anybody
else. They were no inject to him, yet he could
not resist the tompt,ti , ,n to steal from his neigh
b,,rs, just f r t!: , ! ton of the thing. But as s,ine
one said, a I , ,ng lane that has no turn
ud likewis, had Ab followed the practice ut
stealing ;m._l ~t..-4 all his life he-would have got to

Stale of things was nut destined to laat.!tlwri3s—
" A change came over the spirit of hie dreit, ,, l,"
I recollect once, in a melon season, Borne young
sters called at Ab's house, and after telling Mtn
of the pitch that Deacon Aikors had, prop..s
-,,l t. i visit it. Ab was on hand without amo

their Hides with laughter. Ab was right in his
glory, and so, hau'leg 6w his jack knife, he fell
to slashing around with a v ngeance. The others
followed his wimple, and v.cry soon there was
sad havoc in the melon patch
Having satisfied his appetite, Ab set to st4n2:l
trig and crushing all that carne in his way
The other boys hesitated to participate at first,
urging that it was really too bad to treat the old
deacon in such a manner; but Ab swore that it
was really good enough for the old hypocrite,
out he would not leave as long as there was a
melon with a whole hide. Finding there was no
cropping him, they lent a hand eh the perform
ance, and very soon every melon was destroyed ;
not only that, but the vines were pulled and
heaped in 1 , 111,1 rOrrr , r of the patch.
" Now,' raid Ah, mounting the pile, which
wag seine fiver,; six feet high, " give me the
block bottle, aid let me drink the t. 41 Deacon',,
health —that good man in honor of whom we
have just erected this monument."
The bottle was pasSed. and Ab began:
" Deacon Akers—may he live to plant maty
a patch like this, and Al - ) Ashley and his friends
have the honor of harvestiu . it. fur 'eni."
Ha+s w.mt round three times, after which the
bottle started, and ina(.l.! a like number of revo
lutions.
" Now, futchmae that pole yonder, till I erect
a standard, to show i hat mar has been to the
summit, and the work will be done," said Ah.
The pole wa-i lorcught, and after tearing a
stripe off an old ci•tton h,adkk•rchief, and attach
ing it to the'end of the pole, Ab stuck it up in
the pile of vines, dismounted. ami all started for
home. I n a space-of time truly incredible, they
arrived at. Ab's residence. Ab pressed his friends
to stay till morning, but they would not hear it.
