They also alege that the standing OF the parties OF
~. official position of the father of one OF them,
had nothing to do in preventing puoiic examine
ton. Then pray what did prevent it Certainly
nope was had, although the laws OF the state pro-
vide imperativey that in all cases OF death from
violence or accident an inquest must be held.
wss mot this a case Of death by violence, reck-
les. and cruel without parallel in this State No
.,s will gapsay il. Even The Eagte, in the very
article finding fault with the detail OF the case as
n first appeared in The Cincinnati Commercial, i'd
mitted that the "affair was sufficiently blame
"worthy and shocked this whole community" but
could MT see any necessity for public examIna-
ton az the facts were pretty well known les
thew are pretty well known, that is true, by TINS
lime but no thanks TO the papers here; for re-
peat they never referred to the murder at ali unt
the Press elsewhere had published 1t; and tnen
they only referred to it IL deprecate the agtauon
of 60 painful a subject on account OF the ieellngs
of the parties implicated Yes, two young bioods

phene in the face, mouth aud neck, and because
the facts are given to the public through my
agency / am denounced as monster OF cruelty
and good deal Of sympathy is attempted TO be got
ten up for the respectable culprits. was there
ever such state Of things before here or else
wherei Why, / do not question at all buth the
author of the letter to you was Known nc "ou,u
be mobbed, as was recently Mr.. Brady III neigh-
boring city for similar OiieDse; that 49, for COM
nunicating some Of the peeuttGrities, as they are
sometimes styled, Of Slavery to the public or the
facts themselves in either case there is no dispute
and they are given, too without the slightest ex.
aggerati6n and in q really moderate tone. And
vet you will see what was the effect produced IN
the case Of Mr.. Brady. The same would follow
in mine were known, although | am no : lahhee
schoomaster," or any other kind OF YANKEE
but died.in-the-w0ol" Kentucklan; though
hating Slavery and it's enormous evils more in
tensely than any Yankee that ever lived, and for
the reason that have seen more Of 1t, and under
stand its enormities better from having long lived
among them. -
You will not fail TO note this Brady case The
facts are well set forth in The Cincinnati CONNER

evidence of the damping guilt of Slavery
And it is given in the nature OF cumulative teSf.-
aomy, and to accelerate the verdict OF the Ameri-
can Jury now hearing the case.
How many more murders, burnings, and every
conceivable outrage will have yet to be puOiished
before the whole Christian world will arouse and
hiss this hideous, felon evil from the land
Some of the Kentucky papers you will see don't
seem exactly satisfied with the recent feroclous
and cowardly affair at Lexington, and think 1t
hardly the thing, and likely to do more harm tn an
good, as afordng more food for the opponents OF
the ''diyine institution" That they deprecate
very much indeed; not the act so much as the Ell
feet it may have in kindng wider the flame of IA
naticism and intensifyiDg the agitation now going
"on against Slavery, which is so much to be de-
"plored." Here are more sublime texts Tor your
pious dyines in the North who yet uphold the
Christian sanctity of Slavery and desecrate Their
profession and calling by giving " aid aud comfort
10 that sum of all iniquities. ABERDEEN.
