DIR. GRAHAM was yesterday sentenced b.

We believe that sentence is in accordance with

We have been accused of pursuing DR.. @.
in vindictive and relentless spirit, but accused
most uDjustly. We presume we never saw tho

better for him to be at large than at Sing Sing
and believed that no public evil would resul!
from his discharge, we should gladly hear ths
he was liberated. But we cannot view bis cusI
in that light.
The principle on which we have acted s|
this ease is the same which guided or

Prof Webster. We have no faith in $50
culinary or yndictive punishments; but vel
do believe that, in the world as we find H.
evil passions must be restrained by the appr-
benson of legal penalties. And, so long as bel
customers of the low groggeries and dane
