KENDALL fills better than II columns of the
telegraph with reply to the exposition of MILES
KING. Has the Government Defamer nothing
to do in his office? The Retrenchment Com
mittee once, we believe, recommended that it
should be abolished as useless and unnecessary;
and, Judging from the space Mr.. KENDALL occu-
pies in the newspaper, we should say they were
not far wrong.
We have received the first number OF the
"Journal of Law" publication conducted by
an association of members of the Bar IN Phila-
delphia on the plan of that popular periodical the
Journal of Health The number before US con-
tains several very well written articles.
The editor of the Boston Courier, speaking of
the late celebration, dryly observes
"We have collected about two superficial
yards cforiginal poetry, hymns, anthems and odes,
brought forth in different parts of the country,
from which it was our design to make selection,
but second thought, tempered with respect TOR
our readers and charity for the authors, have in
duced us to throw them aside. 1t goes against
our conscience TO promote such manufactures.
-&NsS
The Marion (Ohio) Phenix. in allusion to the
ton Of the Maysvlie Turnpike Bill, says:
sin several towns. we learn, they have burnt
the President in e6fgy. vnd otherwise disgraced
him.
This must be a mistake. We have heard of
no instance of the President having been burnt
in efligy in Kentucky and are glad it has not been
done. Such things reflect more disgrace upon
those who engage in them, than upon those they
are intended to disgrace; and should never be en-
gagged in BY respectable men. When the pro-
per time arrives we can more appropriately express
our Indignation at the polls.

The Boston papers of Saturday, after stating
that the I. S. Bank will recover the whole amount
of money that Fuller recently took from the Bank
except about 5000, remark that there is still
deficiency of between 10000 and 1900 dollars
in the account Of Fuller as Bond Clerk. TO
cover which.in part. the bank has bondsmen to the
amount of $1,000, his mother-in-law in the sum
of $4,000. and Mr.. -. in the sum of $4,000;
so that the final loss to the Bank will probably
be about $4,000.
