Sin: The accompanying correspondence between
the "shcri of the county of Suffolk, who is by law
the jaier, and myself, will explain in part the OBJ
jcct Of this communication.
Tho United States never having provided any
jails in this commonwealth, il will be perceived, ON
examination Of the statute of Massachusetts,, copy
Of which accompanies this letter, that there exists
place for safe detention at present here, in
Of "fngitivs slavss," unless the ships of war or
navy yard, or the revenue cutter. can be used If
required.
Under such circumstances, may ask that the
commodore ON this station and the captain of the
revenue cutter may be instructed to furnish such
assistance the marshal may require In the exc
cutting Of the law referred TO?
Your obedient servant,
CHARLES DEvENS, Ja.,
United States Marshal of Massachusetts.
To Hon. WILLIAM A. GRAHAM,
Secretary Of the Navy. Warrington, d. G.

upon their prospects. The State 10 Whig, and il
the Wings will only make a determined effort, of
which there is now every assurance, they will Sc
cure the Legislature and the State government in
all ts departments. And then, II they are prudent
and sensible if they will abolish all useless Offices
reduce the salaries of those that Indispensable
give wise and bcneficent legislation restore the
credit Of the State, and do justice TO the scriphod
ers, they may retain power. A contrary course
will bring them a speedy overthrow and certain
disgrace.
Business and trade in California are now in q
languishing condition, and many hundreds who
year ago were in comfortable circumstances are
now out of employment, and without the means of
living. There il indeed much distress among the
laboring classes. and wages Of every description il
greatly reduced. This condition Of things IL At
tributable mainly to the scarcity of money, which
in this land Of gold freely commands from seven
to ten per cent. per month. The truth is, every
thing, mining included, has been overdone; and,
as a consequence, every thing il depressed. The
country, however, has recuperativc energies; and
soon a. il ceases 10 buy instead of producing as
it should produce all it consumes, il will become
of the most If not the most prosperous State In
the Union. There il country certainly where
honest industry is likely to be better rewarded, or
where 90 little afford to be idle and dsso-
lute The greatest evil TO the State IL in the
tain administration Of justice, and the impunity
given to crime. The remedy il with tho people,
and in good time, doubtless, its efficiency will bs
made manifest.

charged that he might have fair trial in the dis

offence. This law was most humane.

cured trial at the place where the suspicion Of
crime existed where they could most easily defend
themselves. But should they be tyisd before sent
