OPPRESSION.-CharleS TAFT, known
~ Judge OF The United States District
Caurt for the District of Alabama, has
found another opportunity To vent his
spleen on ylrtuous atA nnoilcndIn2 indI
,idual Mr. Robert Carr Lane of Mobile
has bten wantonly removed from the
itrkship of his court merely because II
is his misfortune, Tor good fortune we
would say not to coincide with him i'll
thinking ar in other words more explicit,
he has the assurance las tue learned Judge
would say, to assert IN this dear land of
IiI,.,rt,. NJ Al I fit and
competent for President of the United
States than VIM. II. CtaM ford. An cpin
ion that millions of ircemen have dared To
express, and With much pride to, long
before him. Now the grand question AT
ISSUE, ia, Whether MIR. rs judgement and
nptniuns on political subjects are NOR"
correct than Mr.. Is, Flaw questions we
have long since had our doubts as far as
regards good wdgment.l Il IS onr opinion
that Mr. l.. is more correct IN honest srnti-
ment. IN this case, and probably all others,
than the learned Judge. In the first place
Nr. L. il independent enough to express,
without fear or affection, openly, mud I'M
BIASED with party intrigue, his opinions, AS
every honest man should. In the second
place, the learned Judge has no political
opinion, other than that he makes use ot
in the dark. His whole study apparently
is to privately prosecute, and vino would
even annhila;e il ii were in his power all
those who presume 10 oppns" his dear
friend aud pupil Crawford lie Is blasscd,
blown up, and even srn"n purSy, WIN
vile party infection, corrupt prnrip'cs, ana
the most cursed itching disposition I" up
