The Affair of the Zighth.
We shall have but a few words to say upon
the occurrences of Monday. The affair has been
heralded far Ind wide upon the wings of steam '
and electricity, and Erie is again the theme of '
almost universal denunciation. Last winter we
could bear this with philosophy, for it was un
uterttud Then we professed to let under the
aut , ority of Law. Every thnig that wee dose
was done by the authority of our City Govern-
meat, and upon the best of Legal advice. The
Supreme Court, wheu the matter was brought
before it, pronounced the City right, and the
railr"lad company trespassers; and, in conformity
t!„& ilecolori. it decreed that the Railroad
Company skivuld remove its road within four
Before this time expired, however, the
l'ouipany asked for further time, and the Court
111 13 til -
grlutol it Now, it is very evident to us Oat
if the Court p, hsesseti the power to grsnt the
f )uths, to the Company m which to remove
r sl, in the first plug, it had equal power
t” titeutl that time At any rate, whether the
C..urt poms..sseti iL or not, it elainis it, sod we
kuuw ‘.l nu appeal except impeachment. How
thin stands the cue. The affair of last winter
was a legal one—commenced and carried out by
the City authorities upon legal grounds. %tit
was tot so ou Monday On the contrary, on the
Friday previous, at a meeting of the City Coun
cils,
convened for that especial purpose, a propo
sition to remove the Bridges from the streets at
the expiration of the four months granted by the
Court, was voted down! This was done by the
a dv ice of the Legal gentlemen employed by the
city, one of whom had argued the question be
t ire Supreme Court—we refer to Judge
Thou ion and Mr Babbitt It was done by the
advice of our representatives at Harrisburg, who
doubtless saw with prophetic vision the damage
such an oeuurretice as that of Monday would
have upon proposed legislation in our behalf—
The affair of Monday, then, was without the
sahctiou of our City Government--without the
authority of Law; nay, it was in direct opposi
tion to the d.•erees of the highest Judicial tribu
nal of the State; and worse than all, against the
ad \ of the very men to whom we look at Har-
r.sburg to procure the Legislation for which we
:lave long and se) urgently contended This
e,rw. the case, it should hat'. been prevented
The enquiry then arises, who should have pre
ntol it' The Sheriff attempted it, but was re
sisted: And here let us remark, that we have
heard a good deal of censure heaped upon that
offiar for hay* issued his proclamation of Sat
urda even having gone so far as to charge
th e whol e occurrence upon the promulgation of
that document. In regard to this,• we have but
s.i) that if the ,Sheriff believed the occurrence
of Monday would take place, he was bound, as a
pesos officer, to issue just such a proclamation.
flay lug issued 4, and apprehending it would not
be r, speeted, he was equally bound to embody a
Corp'-e of deputies sufficient to have maintained
the peace: We understand that he attempted
this, but was unable to procure the necessary
Lt Ip---that he appealed to his own relatives even,
hut it was without success. The Sheriff, not be
ini: able to maintain the peace, then, the ques
uon resolves itself into the simple' proposition,

uere was he on Monday? When we read of
, s:i.orrenees of this kind in other cities. we also

of disturbauei , and commands and enforces the
peae, : W 11) did not hur Major perform th i s

the b , sly over which he presides had rejected, by
a unanimous vote, a proposition to do this very
vit.)rk, thereby in effect declaring that it should
be done It CAS therefore doubly his duty

should do what the City had refused to do But
it is claimed by some of his apologists, that the

Im.‘sicave to say, that the Sheriff, nor no other
man. can usurp the binding force of a Mayor's
oath of office: The Sheriff, nor no other man,
can usurp the moral obligation resting upon the
)laver of the City to do his duty—and every
wau'aeknowlolges that if our Mayor bad repair

peatedly urged to do, and commanded the peace,
this misfortune never would have happened to
uur clith,e
We speak feelingly up in this point, because
we know very well that it has not only placed
our city in a false position, but has done our
cause in the Legislature, and before the Court,
incalculable and irremidable injury. We know
for that in just such proportion as it has injured
us, it has strengthened tire hands our enemies;
amt if we ever required strength at home, and
re,pect at Harrisburg, that time is now.—
We know, too, that the whole thing could have
been avoided if the officer whose duty it was to
prevent at, had so willed it, or thought less of his
own prrsonol grievimeies and hates, and more of
the interests of the city. We know else Mayor
was appealed to, not only by the Sherif!, but by
other citizens, to save our cause from the misgai
,led and mistaken seal of some our friends; and
we are told he refused to go near the scene of dis
till Lance upon the frivolous plea that he had
company to dinner and could not leave his house.
\\'e know that Judge Thompson, and Messrs.
Ball and Skinner, had all written to others that
au occurrence of this kind would prove inju
rious to our cause, and that it ought to be pre
vented at all hazzards; and we have no debt they
had written the same to him. We agree with
the Gaz , ttc in all it says about rail road men be
ing the primary cause; but how conclusively does
that consideration show the necessity that exist
eitifor the Mayor to have done his duty, and thus
deprived these men—these hirelings and paid sti
pendaries of Buffalo and Cleveland---of this op
portunity to make capital against us in the Le
gislature and throughout the country. Does not
every body know—aad the Mayor as well as any
—that our enemies will use the events, of Mon
day with tremendous force against us; and did
he not know this as well on Monday as to-day?
We apprenend he did; and hence we say that if
he had attempted to play into the hands of those
we, in common with himself, oppose, he could
not have done it more effectually than is did on
the Bth; by mistaking or neglecting to do his
sworn official duty.

Amid the general flood of new Books the

Coin. STOgKTON, late of the Navy, later of the
United States Senate, and later yet of the Dern
oolitic party, thanks' Yes, we return him thanks:
He's made us laugh, and that, too, by means of
letter! Letters from bankrupt politicians don't
make us laugh generally; but this one from the .
Commodore does: In the language of the mod
ern classics, "it don't du any thing else." We
don't see why it should either, because a letter
from hi4n is nothing new; indeed we doubt wheth
er Coma Stockton ever said or did any thing new
