The Last Bribery Csse.-Yesterday we
noticed the fact Of the indictment of Judge
Stuart, of the New York city court, for bri.
berry, and compOunding felonies it was his
duty to punish according to law. We were
struck with fact bearing on the case an
nounced in the same paragraph which we
were then without the space to notice
properly. That is, with his alleged effort to
induce the grand jury to let him appear be.
fore them with testimony in his own defence.
1t strikes us, that any judge Of a court of law
who could deliberately purpose thus to triae
with the manner in which a grand Jury
should discharge its duties, deserves to be in.
dicted for utter and sheer incompetency; if not
for crime. If he knew the first lie ..ons of a
judicial education, he knows that nothing
could be more improper than his effort in
question. which wears the appearance of a
deliberate attempt to shirk fair public trial
under the indictments hanging over him.
