| CoLT's TMAL-DupLEY SKLpxN.-We have no.
ticed the remarks and the motion made yesterday
by Dsdley Seldom, in the Court of Oyer and Ter
| miner, relative to an Extra Herald, published on
Thursday evening.
After the termination of the trial, we shall take
| up the point of Mr. Sedens harangue, and show
that he had not the slightest foundation TO attribute
to any desire-anv wish ANY intsntion TO preju-
dice Colt before the jury or the community. We
! are very much astonlshed at this conduct, on the
part of Mr. Seldom, because we have always consd-
cred him a superior man-of great tact-and equal
industry and genius. But we forbear further remark
| ill this trial is over.
In the meantime, Judge Kent met the complaint
in the only proper manner in which such frivolous
matter should be met, by dismissng it at once and

that high oned moral, passonlcss, holy, and intel
lecual atmosphere that will command the admira-

| ton Such digniied conduct in Judges inspires
| the press with that veneratiOn and that noble
emulation, that tends to advance the cause of public
morals and public justice The administration of
| the press, and the administration OF the laws, are
then united In the same great progressive advance
ment OF the human race, in all that dignity and
eHbellish human nature. The exhibition OF sudden
passion In Judges in Counsel fer frivolous causes
the issuing of hasy orders for conempts on sud
den energencies-the running to Grand Jures with
frivolous or ridiculous compaints-never did, and
never can give dignity to the administration of JUS
tee, or elevate the reputation Of Judges. Judge
Kent IN one day, in half honr, in five minutes
has done more to elevate and give dignity to the ad
mnisraon Of the laws, and to secsre their impartial
exercise than men acting under the feelings and |
views expressed by Mr.. Seden, would do in half
century.
The administration Of the laws and the admins /
traion of the press are equally the elements OF |
high and lofty civilization, and when they are con-
Quoted the like elevated principles society and
civilization will leap forward into the next genera

mountain ridge of Berkshire, uniting Boston and AL.
