A WonAx LAWYER, OR A LAWYER WOMAN

A WOMAN LAWYER, OR A LAWYER WOMAN.
-Or the 18th of April a large throng of people
were attracted. TO the 4th Chamber of LA
Courtde Ii Seine" Paris, by the alnou ,cement
that 4 woman would plead her own cause be.
fore the tribunal of justice.
Madame Grange advanced to the bar with
calm simplicity of manner. She quietly took
off her gloves and bonnet, placed her parasol
against a column. shook back the magnificent
blonde curls, which hung around her face, and
began her speech. Without the slightest en-
barrassmcnt or appearance of WEAKNESS, she
spoke (by the watch for three hours.
1t was a case of an appeal from judgment,
md defended by Dclangle. The frequenters of
the Palais were amazed, and sorely chagrined
10 hear a woman plead a cause so ably, with
such facility, such knowledge of the t%ecnicali-
sicso of the iaw-and above all. with such con-
&yincing eloqnence. 2as
At the end of three hours, Madame Grange
said she would sum up the whole. The connois-
senrs now exclaimed: ..SIle will recommence
her pleading They were widely mistaken.
Although the resume was rather discnrsive, it
was lucid and admirable. At its termination
Madame Grange said, with delicate good taste
and simplicity: gentlemen, | think | have
said all that is necessary to enlightcn you upon
my rights. Pardon me, if have wearied you.
As a daughter, | feel myselfimpel!ed to defend
the rights of an aged mother; as a mother, |
am compelled 10 defend the rights of my chill
.drcn.
Monsieur De'ange replied to Mad. Grange,
whom he could not avoid addressing OCCASION
ly,as @the honorable gentleman" He would
then quickly apologize. and the whole scene
passed away with good humor. There can be
no doubt but that women would be great law
years. aa

The CUBAN EXPEDITION NOT ABANDONED
The Atlanta Georgia. Republican of the 18th
instant, speaks thus decidedly about the mys-
FERROUS expedition. The Republic speaks adj
visedly. 1t was the source whence our earliest
information, touching the movements of the
Southern Filibusters was derived
1t is to be hoped that the government au-
thorities will not be thrown off their guard by
the false representations of interested persons
to the effect that the Expedition is abandoned.
Various newspapers represent them as hay-
ing left for home. This is not true. None
have passed this way, and many Of those who
went from the upper part of this State would,
we know, return as soon as they were dischar-
ged. They will be apt to be heard from be-
fore long.
Since writing the above we have heard of
,me three or four who have returned, but
we do not take that as any evidence of the.
abandonment of the enterprise. 1t rather
proves the contrary, as it shows that 4 few
have had time to return, while the main body
are sill unsccounted for. There is nothing
str ange in the return of a few; the only Won
der is that there have not been more, even al
lowi ng that the invasion is to proceed.
If the JIG is up, where are the dancers?

High-IIanded Outrage.

A dispatch from New York to the Boston papers
of Monday sayshat 'four negroes, charged with be-
ing concerned in the Christiana riot, were brought
before Judge Pearson at Harrisburg, on Saturday. on
wit Of habeas corpus. The Judge decided that
the committing magistrate had been guilty Of gross
dereliction Of duty, IN sending them to jail Uithou
ecidence. The prisoners were discharged, where
were in charge Of has officers The negroes were
Immediately hand-cufed in open court and conrey-
ed to the Commissioner's achere an examination
qUas held avih closed doors, achich resulted in the
slGUes being handed orer to the claimants The
extraordinary nature the proceedings gave to
great excitement, but there violation of law. "
So do our Southern t,rants ride rough. shod over
the free institutions of the Northern States So does
the iron will of one Of llard FilImores contempti-
bic Commissioners override the decisions of
Judge So does this Whig administration establish
secret inqusltion, and in the very face of judicial
decision, trampe upon the right Of trial by jury, and
consgn men to eternal bondage without hearing,
and without any proof being offered that the men
claimed as slaves have submitted to an hour of
such degradation in their lives. While these infa-
outrages upon natural and civil rights are GO
ing on In this land, the Wing press of Massachusetts
is calling upon the people to sustain the administra-
ron, and countenance these abominabIe proceedings
by electng men to office who endorse, SANCTION ant
approve of them, who are in favor Of sustaining al
the compromises with slavery and opposed to all ag
itation for the repeal of the Fugitive Slave Law
And will the people do it? That is the question
which they must answer for themselves at the polls
Our own opinion is, that they will not; that there i
too much fpatriotsm, too much Of the spirit of lib
erty and too high regard fo the precepts and teach
ings CT the Gospel of Jesus, among the descendant
ofthe Pilgrims, and of those who de6ed the usurpa
tion of Great Britain in IT'S, to permit them TO b
turned aside from the path of duty in times like these
and lend themselves to the unholy work of crushin
the institutions Of freedom which were won for her
by their tolls privations and sacrifices. When Ma,
sachusetts endorses the men who glory in sue
transactions as above recorded, we shall think th
the spirit Of the old time has departed from amor
us, but not till then.
