Mcssrs. LITTLE & BRows: ] think you have laid
the profession under great obligations in the re-
publication Of the English Reports in Law and
Equity" in this country
The low price at which the volumes are offered
will enable the bar generally in this way to fur
nish their libraries with the current Enghsh Re
ports, of which many Of them have heretofore been
deprived They will thus have a ready access to
the decisions Of courts sitting at the fountain
bead OF the law, whence have been derived for the
most part the several systems, more or less modi-
fed daily administered by the courts OF this coun-
try. And. however modified these systems may
be, ii is manifest that these decisions must shed
great light upon the investigation of most of the
oases arising here,
Your plan, also, will furnish the profession in
this country with the cases IMnEprATgLy AFTER
THE PUBLICATIONS IN EsotAsp,A ooss,psaATtoN
or THE rIasr IMPORTANCE; for, If the Reports Of
cases decided are OF any value. the sooner they
arc in the hands OF the profession the better. !
sincerely hope your encouragement from the bar
will be commemorate with the merit OF the enter
prise.
am, with greatrcspcct, your obediont ecrvant,
SAMUEL NELSON.

Galphinism and Gardinerism

We notice many slow lings" by Democratic
writers and speakers with reference to these two
claims and much capital against the Wing party
lis attempted to be made out of them. They re
qure but brief answers.
In the first place, the Galphin affair, with
the wishes of Mr.. Crawford, the person chiefly
assailed, was submitted to a Democratic Congress-
In the second place, the Gardiner claim is before
IA legal tribunal, the accused urging to come to
trial and the prayer of every good Wing mean
while, "God grant that the guilty, if any, may
be detected, exposed, and punished" !" And
In the third place, Winfield Scott and William
4. Graham have had nothing to do with them.
Can our opponents talk to this time of their
swindlers? Do they wish to hear any thing on
that head? We can begin at the great Columbus,
Mississippi, AFFAIR, and come down to more recent
financial operations. What do they say on thi'
head? We are ready

In the Wing towns the vote TO repeal was nearly
fire 10 one; in the Democratic towns the vote
against the repeal was nearly nine to one and thus
the aat-rpu6lican, unjust, oppressive prohibition
was continued and now exists
Yet, in full view Of these facts, General Scott
lis on all hands villifed abused, and slandered
|and men claiming the character of honorable mer
give countenance and currency to such defama
ton. But it may be said that General Pierce
himself roted ,cith Tie Wigs in this instance. W.
hope it may prove 50; for if it does, we shall
honor him for it, though we must regret that he
had not or did not exert the influence with his
own party necessary to effect the needed reform
We appeal to the religious prejudices of nc
man in political contest; but if we must send
back the arrows of vulnerable foe, we will take
good care that each one shall have its barb. Our
opponents have descended to a bitter warfare,
and we will not shun the conflict.

exhibited from the City Hall windows, with fine
effect We must not omit to mention represen-
tation of a large soup vessel, and the g hasty
plate" near by, with the inscription "Cest Ia

The stand was tastefully decorated with flags and
notices and in the rear, extending over the pill
lars, were the words, in mammoth letters, ESCORT,
GRAHAM, AND THE COMPROMISES" with pendant
American flag at each end Of the canvass.
The Washington Light Infantry Band was in
attendance on the stand.

The paintings and decorations were executed
under the superintendent Of Mr.. w. I. Porter,
at the instance of the Committee of Arrange
ments, with j. Nj. Carlisle, esq, as its chairman.
Many of the Wings of the wards marched in
procession with music, and reached the hall be-
tween eight and nine o'clock, joined by brethren
from Georgetown, Alexandria, and the surround

We cannot pretend to estimate the number Of
persons including many ladies, present; but
there were thousands, (perhaps the largest polit,

seemed to be animated by one heart and spirit,

bounded enthusiasm.
Before the proceedings commenced, there was
:, a salute of thirty-one guns.

Our Democratic friends are ever loud in their
praise of the Democracy of New Hampshire, and
Rof Mr.. Pierce, who is there the influential leader
4of their party but it appears that he either will
not or cannot remove this disgraceful blot from
the constitution. And not only this, but is BY
his party that ii as continued!
In March, 1852 vote was taken throughout
the State on the question of aboishing this test.
The question was not strictly party one, yet
the strong Whg towns uoted for abolishing the test,

8result was that it was retained by Democratic
Votes and Gen. Pierce's own township ooted more
