PARIS, FeAEcE, Jan. 10

PARIS, FRANCE, Jan. 10, 1891
At a recent meeting Of the American physi
clans in Paris, an association was established
whose object is the promotion of medical science
This association, essentially national, is now
progressing under the most favorable auspices
II is intended to he permanent in its nature, and
is designated the . American Medical Society in
Paris"
Notwithstanding the vast advantages afforded
by the French metropolis for the study Of med
ical and surgical science, we feel ourselves iso.
lated from our nationatsaedical literature, and
therefore, confidently appeal to the conductors
of American journals and periodicals.
We do this with less hesitation, feeling as
sured that it will be not only medium Of i'm,
provemcnt to ourselves, but means Of new
general diffusion and just appreciation of Amer
lean literature.
By order Of the Society,

crat has the following remarks on the release OF
the Christiana treason rioters:-
"If ever justice was cheated of her due, she
has been in these Christiana eases. Here, we
have seen the laws of the State and of the Union
set at defiance by an armed mob; citizen of
an adjoining State in the peaceful pursuit Of his
lawful property, deliberately murdered, and his
body brutally mangled; Others severely wound
ed and obliged to flee for their lives; and yet
the perpetrators OF this bloody outrage, with
their aiders and sbettors, are allowed to go scot
free OF what value are our laws, when they
become impotent to punish such heinous crimes
as these? Where the fault lies, we will not IN
dertake to decide. But that there has been a
grave omission somewhere, the facts that the
deed is done, and the actors are again at liberty

THR PARDoN or ALBERT by Gov. BlGLEE.-
The Harrisburg Union, in announcing the par
don Of George +. Albert, of Philadelphia, who
was sentenced TO the pententiary for ten years
for what was termed kidnapping, thus states
some of the facts in the case:
Albert was engaged by gentleman in Mary
land, (Mr Mitchell, OF Cecil county, to arrest
femnle runaway slave, then in the State Of
New Jersey. When arrested, she had in her
arms an infant that had been born in free
State. When taken before the United States
officer and remanded TO her owner, she was
told that she should leave the child in Phiadel.
phia, where It would be cared for at public
institution, and would of course be free This
she positively refused 10 do, and adhered 10 the
determination TO take the child with her. Al.
BERT then delivered her and tho child over 10
the parties from Maryland authorized to receive
her.
The Aboltionists OF Philadelphia had Albert
arrested for kidnapping and he was arragned
for trial before Judge Parsons. Before coming
TO n trial il was ascertaiRed that this man could
not be convicted without obtaining the evidence
of felon then under sentence in the philadel.
phia prison, by the name of Thomas Richard.
son. The Abulilionists repaired TO Harrisburg
and obtained pardon for Richardson, dated on
the morning the trial was TO commence, and
this convicted feon was brought from his cell
TO the witness stand 10 give testimony on
which TO convict Albert of kidnapping. The
charge Of the Judge in this case was one Of the
most extraordinary documents we ever read,
aud, in accordance with this one.sided charge,
the defendant was convicted and sentenced for
a period that would. in all probability, have
terminated his life, if nc had been obged'to
serve il out.
These were the means resorted 10 by the
Abolitionists AID Governor Johnson 10 convict
this old man, Albert, and il will be a source Of
qualification 10 every philanthropic citizen TO
learn that Gov. Bgler has granted him par.
don.
In our view, this old man committed no OF.
fence whatever. lie did not carry off the child
10 Maryland, because il was not carried into
slavery; and even if he had done 40. he com.
mitted no offence against the laws Of Pennsyl.
vania, as the woman and child were taken from
New Jersey.
