"The charges" (says the American Republi-
CAM "were of a most singular and astonishing
character, and if fully sustained by evidence,
will clearly prove that these Justices are totally
disqualified to fill the offices they hold. Many
of the charges alleged that the said Justices,
when individuals had been brought before them
for crime, petit larceny, or grand larceny, or
what not, had discharged them without a hear
ing, or the least investigation whatever that
acting without law, they were law unto
themselves and managed things altogether in
their own way, and just as their whims or ca
price led them" They were also charged with
"exhibting violent temper and undignified con-
duct in their ofiices.n Justice Haskell was also
charged with being incompetent from want of
education; and with having drawn a pistol
whilst on the bench, "and threatening to shoot
person in the room, and declaring afterwards,
that he would have shot him if he had come
before him" Truly these Justices are cxtraor-
binary conscrvators of the peace.
