The Higher Law Party.
The DEVELOPMENTS made by'tb,

The developments made blythe in
yestigating committee show the real
character Of that Immaculate party
which, under the lead of VIM. II.
Seward, proclaims its adherence to a
higher law" than the constitution
which it is sworn to maintain
That higher law to which they bow
seems to be their own pecuniary in-
ter, SITS. For this the interest of the
people and the country are alike sac
riiiced, the laws Of God, the require
ments of their oatbs are alike disre-
garled; and for money and lands
these pure patriots and protesting
philanthropists are ready to sell THEN
votes and give their Influence upor
any subject.
These are the higher law men
who scott at the old parties and pratf
about purity and conscience, as i
they alone possessed those qualities
The vote on the report Of The
COMMITTEES shows pretty cl.:arly the
character of the parties, and lets the
country understand who they are thai
sell their influence, and who justify
them in such acts.
/ This black republiclnism is but
miserable sham to cover black heart:

t is amusing to hear small poliii-

to the influence of the press, talk con-

that it can raise such timber heaGs

out his time, he went back and again

The way They Marry in Indiana.

Our ,Hoosier friends have way OF
INDUCING their passions and senti-
ments. even to the sacrifice, some
times, Of cOnyentionalities. We have
heard OF an instance in which 4 f,-
tli-Taa son married two sisters, the
Voting manmarryiag first. and the IA
Tier taking a liking to his daughter
in-law, sought the acquaintance of b. /
sister. proposed, and was married to
her Thus in addition to the natural
sistcrly connection which existed, one
sister Wis made step-mother and the
other step-daughtcr and daughterln-
Inv 10 her own sist L. Each party
having issue, it is novelty to trace
the relationship Of The offspring to
the 'old folks AID to each other.-
The Old gentleman WIS grandfather
and uncle to his SON 5 children, while
his better halt stood both as grand
moth and aunt to the SANE hope
ful scions. The young man became
his fathers brother-in-law, and ENJOY
ed the sine reIa ionship to his cruel
st p mother, while he was both uncle
and half brother to his fathers chill
dren. The descendants of each have
eventually become so entangled in
the tbs Of consanguiri,y, that at last
accounts the oldest son of one of the
parties was endeavoring to prove, up
on genealogical principles, that he WAS
his sisters grandfather. We hear
that politics makes strange bedftl-
lows" we have certainly shown that
love and matrimony sometimes make
strange relationships.

| A free negro boy was lately ares
ted in Louisville, KY, for tn p rpe-
tration of great number of thefts.
He was tried and acquitted, thanks
to his lawyer, although there was no
mora! doubt of bis guilt. : lie lad, ii
appears, the temerity and hcartIess-
ness to deceive the very lawyer who
defended him SO ably upon trial
AS an inducemrnt to his legal advis-
er to exercise his best ability in his
behalf, he informed him that he had
an old pocket book, containing TWEEN
ty-eight dollars, hid away in a GER
tain locality of old rubbish down town,
and that if he the lawyer would
search diligently and find the wallet,
the treasure should all be his. With
high hopes of sudden fortune the at
torney made a. elandestine visit to
the place described, and instituted a
search for the money. He oyerturn-
ed an indefinite number Of bricks,
whole cart loads of stone and heavy
beams Of solid timber, and actually
made excavations some distance in
the earth, but saw nothing of his
promised reward. Eventually, ex-I
hausted by his unusual physical ex-
ertions, he abandoned his fruitless
search, and returned to his chamber

A WEALTHY CLIENT.-By the re-
port Of the Treasurer, we perceive
that the government has brought
l,200 suits during the recent CEN
tury, against deiaulters, to recover
S6,213,000. In all these cases, the
conclusion of the suit has been that
the defaulter has not been found, or
has been dead or insolyent, and Gov
has had to pay the costs.
