Our CLAIMS upon Portugal.

We publish, in another column, succint his
tory, from the gallant commander Of the private
armed brig General Armstrong, Of that heroic
action in the port Of Fasal, out Of which have
grown the claims Of our government upon POr-
tugsl Captain Reid's leurr is complete rsfu-

However, little need be said that point at

This may may not he true. The eleventh

The Erglish papers aRd the French press, parti-

appearance OF our squadron in the Tssus, as an

BANK FINANcIERs AND GovERNoR's REQUlsI-
TeNs AT recent session Of the Lehigh County
Court, Prnnsy vania, the Grand Jury, upon legtl
proof. found an Indictment against Moses Y. Beach,
as owner and operator of the Lehigh County Bunk,
which exploded few years ago Ia pursuance OF
the Indictment, Governor Johnson sent an officer
to this State, demanding Governor Fish TO deliver
up the said Beach the authorities of Pinnsylva-
MIA. The !. quisition Of the Governor of Pennsyl-
vsnia was presented in due form, but Govern.r
Fish hesitated long time about complying with it,
The cause of his DELAY Was tbs fact that Governors
Wripbt. Seward, and Young had refused in similar
cases 10 ackuow ledge the right Of the Executive of
other States To demand bank financiers, and il
only after the most persevering solicitation, and
much legal argument, that the justice Of the de-
mand was acknowledged, and the necessary war
rant issued for the arrest of Moses Y. Beach. BY
the time the warrant was placed in proper hands,
the individual had disappeared and loo ited himself
in Connecticut The financial operations of thL
distinguished banker have compelled him TO avoia
three States, viz, New York, New Jersey, and
Pennsylvania, neither of which he Can enter, with
out running the risk of beng arrested and delivered
TO the proper authorities He is also liable TO be
disturbed wherever he may reside, in any State OF
only to issue reqnisition upon the Governor of
Conn cticut, or any other State where he may be,
TO secure his arrest Really, we do not know
where this tnancier go, TO get rid Of
this prosecution. He dare not 60 to Cuba
He is literally an outlaw in three import
ant States Of the Union, and before the lapse
Of many months, he may be hunted from
one 10 another Of all the rest Now, this must be
a very dssgreeable position for such a celebrated
tinHncer to he placed in, and we advise him to
adopt proper measures at 10 settle the dshcul-
ties, and remove the restraint placed upon his
movements He probably made a great deal of
money out of the Plainfeld and Lehgh County
handsome out of the Cuba business; and II he
would come forward and offer TO compromise the
matter in relation to his banking operations in
Pennsylvania aud New Jersey, the indictments
would doubtless be quashed, aud the restrictions
upon his movements removed The outstanding
baby, at the rate of fifty cents the dollar, aud
he would then have enough left TO carry him conn
fortsby through the few remaining years of his
life. The removal Of such burden from his
science would enable him In turn his attention to-
wards the affairs of that world TO which we all

the many sins he has committed. The peace of
mind that such act would bring would he worth
more 10 him than all his wealth, and be "a source

PRorosED STATUE OF GENERAL TAYLOR
great talents Of GABRIELLE the sculptor and modeer,
are too well known 10 the United States, and to
all the admirers Of the fine arts, TO require any
eulogy from us. The fidelity, elegance and deli
cacy which marks the work Of his skiful hand,
and which follows the touch Of his am.st magic
chisel, have excited public admiration in all the
productions Of his genius In none of these is his
genius more respondent than in the famous bust
Of General Taylor, the only faithful one in exist
ence, which the artist went TO Mexico to take, and
in the execution Of which he exposed himself upon
the field of battle. That famous bust, the model
and prototype Of all Others is due the genius of
GABRIELLE. As there is now talk Of procuring
marble bust or statue, Of the late President at the
national expense, we are sure that no person more
proper and competent could he chosen to execute
il Than Mr.. Gdrbeie; and il is to be hoped hi,
genus, talent, and the faithful bust he has already
executed will be forgotten at the present time.
As the author and modeller Of the best bust OF
General Tayl or in existence, he now richly de-
serves the preference and We doubt not the
family of the late President will be foremost TO
award il 10 one whose talent is unrivalled, and
whose genius, as a sculptor, is universally ac-
knowledged.

The jeuIneymen tailors maintain the ground
which they assumed at the beginning ofthrir strike
for higher pay fof their work, and seem deter
mined TO hold on TO the last We are glad to see
that they combining themselves within the law,
and that there has been repetition of the lille
gal acts which were committed by portion of
the craft few days since. The sympathy Of the
community will be with them so long as 10 pur-
suing their own rights they do not invade those Of
others. We dsuht not that but for the teachings
of The socialists, the occurrences TO which we re-
fer would not have taken place. Violating the law
will only tend to weaken them and the cause in
which they are engaged. Let them pursue their
busn. SIS pescesbly, and, above all things, pay no
heed to the doctrines Of the disorg anzers who are
ever ready to use such occasions to their own ad-
vantage.

ice NEw CODE.-The original object int ended
by the introduction Of a new code, was that ~
clearing up some of the myst,fcations Of the old
law, ard simplifying It's obtuse iechncalities but
how far this has been effected the frrquenters Of
our courts have had ample proof aud opportunity Of
observing it is in fact, confusion worse con-
founded"
The forms in pleading and in practice, under the
new system, occasion more delay than was ever
experienced before its hapless introduction, and
the expense and uncertainty in the administration
Of justioe have not been dimini,hed; the snsrcs
which endangered the path to justice have not
been removed by the legal reformers Of the present
day, but n system has bsen introduced by them
which, instead Of proving more simple, is more COO
founded, and its efficacy is manifested by the fact
that III incomplefsness impresses upon every lit
giant the necessity OF appealing against adverse
decisions, and thus passing through the various
courts to the highest tribunal la the State whilst
an enormous and ruinous exrsnce s encountered,
with hope Of at last obtaining justice-a fair in.
terpreistion 81 the law.
BY the union Of law and equity jurisdiction in
the same tribunal, under the new code-which en-
trely shroRaies the Old form Of plradings-a suit,
thouth rendered easy in its commencement, IL
douhly difficult In its progress Instead Of there
beihs simple issue OF fact, there are nov seve.
rHl and the jury are prrplexed by the questions
UPON which they are expected to pass This
charge has therefore proved embarrassing, bat no,
ustful
The new code will not, II ctnnot, stand; IL must
b. repealed Il is imperfect, nintelligibIe incon-
pleir, and vague. More time IL lost in eodeavor-
ing to comprehend its legitimate constructions: ia
discussing whether amendments should be permit
ted. 5pd in disposine Of other preliminary teehni-
csitrs, than is occupied in the actual trial Of the
csuse az iSsue.
We have carefully watched the operations ~ the
new code. and sssert that IL neither dminishes
nor cbespens liugation; nor does IL make il more
useful cr certain In the efIectuaton 81 Justice On
the conary the desire for law suits has increased
because Of the facility of ncng actions, aud
the avidi'y with which "certain class ~ mem
hers Of The profession seize upon the slghtest pre-
text Tor entering a suit nameless and unprofes-
sional conditions

code, the gsngrsRe of legal my-,ihcadon-, be con
signed 70 them. Let them reform il altogether,
fur It has originated in the Wild aud reckless fancy
Of socialist democrats snd visionary whtgs: aud
instead Of being a modification or smpIifc,tion Of

growing out of the great divorce cases of Forrest
