in Europe is appalled,, not by the fear that
he may be simply arrested and imprisoned
on come charge of crime or revolutionary
complication, but by the consideration that
he may be thrust into a dungeon by the
Police and never more heard of by his
friends. If he could only be assured that
the fact and circumstances of his arrest
would be made public, the black shadow
of Despotism would be robbed of half its
terrors. So here, an honest man may well
shrink from arrest as a suspected criminal;
but, being arrested, he will naturally desire
that the fact should be every where pro-
claimed, so that all who can give testimo-
ny establishing his innocence may know
that it is wanted. With rogues, the case
may well be otherwise; bat why should
Judges so intensely sympathise with them!

THE COURTS AND THE PRESS.

Suppose You were to drop into some
Court of Justice to beguile leisure hour,
or be dragged in to give evidence or serve
on a jury, and, coming away, meet a
friend who asked what is going on there,
your answer might very naturally be,
"A man named Peter jerks is on trial,
charged with stealing fifty dollars from
one of Stewards money-desks." But
what asks your friend, is the charge
based upon!' "On the fact" you inno-
Gently respond, "that the money was cer-
tainly there just before jerks was seen
lingering about the desk, and was missed
soon after he left ; and two clerks swear
that nobody else was about the desk dur
ing the time it must have been taken"
Having thus told all you know about the
mat;er-sll you could know until the
testimony for the defense is introduced
