VIRGINIA ARGUS.
Y 7 CT M o ND:
THURSDAY. AUGUST y. 1912.

In an extract of q letter from friend at
Washington, winch was published in this pa
per not long ago, the law touching ,iotS and
MODS was very distinctly laid down from au
thority; aad, although we have attentively
considered all the quotations from the books,
as brought forward by Mr.. Wagner, the
Alexandria federal paper, and MIR. Coleman,
(of New. York; we find no reason to alter
our opinion OIL the legal question. Mr.. Han
son and his friends were, most undoubtedly,
rioters in the eye gfthe Al7y; and their kill
ing of Williams and Gale was an uniazgfiti
killing. Not single authority that the IA
bettors of the Federal Republican have pro-
duced, does, i'll the least, invalidate this
pinion.
WHAT. in effect, do the authorities quoted
by Mr.. Hanson's friends amount to /! SIMPLY
to this:
THAT mans hou8e is hiS Castle ; and that,
If any oue moLcStS him therein, H. may, 7vilh
the aia Of his friends, defend himself qVith
/prce and arms.
NJ lawycI will dispute; no well-informed
lawyer ever denied, that this IS, generally
speaking. the law of the land.
But hozv IS "a mans house his castle WHY,
it is his castle where he, as citizen, is qui-
city and lawfully pursuing his business. Thls,
it a. inhabits a house i'll Baltimore, as a nc
chanlC, gentleman, or merchant, and &.
threatens to come TO his house and beat him
tIIen A. may assemble his friends with arms
TO defend and protect himself. Now, it is
evident that this was not Mr. Hanson's case.
he did not reside in Baltimore he was pur-
suing no lawful bushes there.
But if IS notiuhabitng a house IT, Balti-
more, and is threatened that if he does 60 to
any house there for a certain purpose he
will DC beat; and yet, in defiance Of such
threats, he obtains an assignment of right
To- occupy such a house, then A. canHot le-
galy collect his friends with fire arms. and
actually occupy it, for the said certain pur-
pose. This, obviously, rus Mr. Hanson's
case. lie procured an assignment from Mr..
Wagner Of a right to occupy house IN
Charics-strect, Baltimore, and he assembled
his friends with arms to enforce what he
had been admOnished he would be resisted
in.
What, then we shall be asked, cannot a
man enter upon and enjoy right fairly ac-
qaTedS ] answer, yes But he must enter
upon it lawfully, and enjoy it lawfully
Mr.. Hanson has right to reside in Balti-
more, and, like any other man, to pnbiish a
newspaper there and the laws guarantee
him protection No man has a right t. TIRE
sHBie that the laws are not competent 10 pro-
tect him, and execute justice on his own mere
motion.
If, at any time, band Of rioters should.
for the moment, be too powerful and quick
| Tor the laws, still the punishment of their con
duct IS with those who &C in tie namc oftl,e
| 1mmuHity, and not wish the party aggriey-
ed.

COMMUNICATIONS

DfED-On the Esd instant, at York
Town, in this state, where lie had gone for
the recovery of his health, Mr.. JOHN
O'LYNCH, Printer, of this City, but ma
tive of Londond, rry, in Ireland who, in
his adolescence, Came amongst us without
either patronage or protection, save what he
derived from a sickly neither, who died soon
after their arri' al-Yet by We 'satilitv of
talent, and polish of manners peculiarly
mis- o~ n. he soon Gn the employment of the
late Mr.. Nicolscn, Printer and public Libra
rian,) acquired the reputation which at the
decease of that gentleman, made him his
successor. Then, having a better opportu-
nifty of displaying the growing powers OF his
intellect and he gondnrss of his disposition
he rapidly became a greater tavorite with
the public, and a source of higher enj ~ ment
60 his friends.
To complete his happiness here below,
he, in December last, va united in we,llnck

But while she mourns her souls delight laid

And bear her back to social bliss again

LEXINGTON, (K) Aug. II.

Governor Harrison arrived in this place
on Sunday evening. 1t is expected that the
remainder of the Kentucky Volunteers viii
b. ordered to the Indiana Territory, and
under the command of Gov. III. commence
campaign against the Indians on Lakes Mich
igan and Huron, and ultimately to cooperate
with Gen. Hull i'll reducing Michilimackinac,
which fort is remarkably strong and well
supplied with ammunition. A strong force
an that quarter would seem indIspensibIy ne
Cessary To guardthe frontier against destruc
tive predatory incursions from the Indians.
Gocernor Edwards too, in Illinois, wants 4
guard, and must be protected.
We are convinced that nothing would so
well please the volunteers of this state rs To
be placed under the command OF Harrison
their unbounded confidence in his talents and
skill will stimulate them under the sever
est hardships, and would undoubtedly lead
them to perform feats OF valor, that would
90 honor to cur fathers.
