SENATOR SUMNER TO PAssMoRE WILLIAMSON
We envy Passmore Williamson the receipt of
the letter from Charles Sumner, one of the
best men, purest patriots and intelligent
minds of the Union Though the victim OF
Judge Knnes judicial tyranny is separated
from his family and rrccuded from attending
to his business. still he is happier and more
respected by the general community, than
the man who bought his seat on the bench
by IA convenient political lie. Thousands Of
our citizens look to passmoro Williamson
n Christian man in bondage for acting upon
his Christian inn ulses towards his fellow
men. No one, on the contrary regards
Judge Kane as having added dignity or res
pcctability to the position lie achieved go
unworthily; and his conduct is only approved
by those toadics who hang upon official favor
for their bread, and make their living by
following their instincts, as the trained blood
hounds Of the South do in the genial occupa
ton of catching runaway slaves. We have
yet to find the high toned gentleman of any
party or political creed, who does not say
that Judge Kane outraged law and liberty by
taking cOgnizanco ola case over which he had
no jurisdiction and We have yet to find the
Lawyer unprejudicod by his locotoco slacklrs,
who does not proclaim that he deserves i'm
peachmcnt for his gross violation of the stat
ute law. Mr.. Williamson in his cell may
thank God that he is not Judge Kane in his
soilcd erminc Ph'ladciph,a S,m.
