Litchfield enquirer., 1834-10-16

Something 10 all men, and to some men all.
 We understand some curious disclosures were made last week. on the trial Of a cause before the Superior Court now sitting at Dan bury. The case was an action Of book debt, brought by the Messrs. Farchild, of Bridge port, for paper supplied to that yeracious print yclept the Stamford Sentinel, against Mr. Holly, the editor, Mir. Brown. the Postmaster at Stamford, and others. On the trial, it was claimed by the plaintiffs that at a meeting of the proprietors. held some time since, the de- ponents divided their respective interests into shares, and appointed Holly editor, and the agent ofthe prOprietors, and at the same time appointed committee to control him in the discharge of these duties. To contradict this claim, Holly himself was introduced as wit ness-and the wretch swore he always sup posed he was carrying on the paper upon his own account. And as to the appointment of a committee as mentioned above, he spurned the idea with contempt and ahhorrence. He be controlled and directed in the discharge of his editorial duties No indeed, not he !! !- The thing was mentioned he said at a meeting of the proprietors. but he promptly put his veto upon it, informing them that he was too independent to submit to such measure as that, and that no such committee sOas appointed. The plaintiffs then nre6::::...,'' n ,v.0rd Uf tne proceedings fthe meeting referred to, part of which ,cos signed 6y Holly himse!f and at which meeting John Bro,on, Esq. the Post master, soas Chairman, with entries in snh' stance as follows:-V"edt to appoint Wm. u. Holly Agent. Voted, that Wm. S. Wood and John Brown. Esq be a committee [" advise with the agent. The case depended on the question whether Holly was the agent of the defendants, in conducting the estabiishmenf' and purchasing paper under this appointment, and the jury disbelieving Hoiley's testimony, very properly gave verdict for the plaintiffs l." recover of Postmaster Brown, Wm. Il. HoI!ey, and others, upwards of five hundred dnlIars.
 Thus, in addition to the many corruptions already proved upon the Post Office Depart mrnt, is io be added this foulest and 6lthiest of all-that of having set up, supported, and controlled the miserable press at Stamford. And in what miserable plight does this case exhibit Wm. H. Holley-swearng one mo- ment with swaggering impudence of bully 10 things that are disproved the nert ny RE- CORD under his and his employers signatures /!
