rJ The Herald Of yesterday morning stated
explicitly that JoHs DuER and GEORGE GRlFFEN,
Esors.. counsel for Commander MACKENZIE, in his
trial By the Court Martial now in session, had
abandoned his case. We are authorised by those
gentlemen to state, what every ore who knew any
thing of the matter knew before that this Is utterly
false. Mr. GRIYrEs was employed only as Cham
Der Counsel, and is engaged in discharging his
duties AS SUCH Mr.. DuER has attended at the
trial daily until he obliged to leave by previous
engagements of an important nature. Both these
gentlemen s,u,o that their original conviction OF
the justice and perfect proeriety OF the conduct OF
Commander MACKENZIE in the execution OF the
mutineers, so far from being diminished. he's been
greatly strengthened and fortified by the evidence
adauced upon this trial
II any Journalist disapproves the conduct OF
Commander Mackenzie it is flank and manly to
express his dissent, so be does Il with proper re-
gard for truth aud decent humanity; bEt the course
the Herald pursues is rather that of bribed as
sassn stabbing character for hire, than that of one
who does bis work because he loves it-so bunghng
and shallow are ths lies it coins.

VlRelS1A.-The Legislature of Virginia has

Public Lands which belongs to the State. The
