Transcript of yesterday noticed several impor-
tant mistakes in regard to the trial before A. G.
Randall, Esq, and jury, Oct. s, in the case of
Ferguson VS.. Corbin.
Now, the facts are as follows :--on or about the
9th day of September Ferguson went into the
mill at Millbury, Of which Corbn had charge as
overseer, at the request of one Rhodes, who owns
the mill, and for whom Corbin worked. He was
Immediately set upon by Corbin and thrust out
of the mill, as Ferguson tells the story. Fergu.
Immediately goes to A G. Randall, Esq,
and makes complaint. Corbin was tried and
found guilty. Corbin then goes to a person
named Paul, in Millbury, and makes complaint
against Ferguson, who is tried thereon, and
found guilty.
The present case is an action of tort, COM
menced by Ferguson against Corbin, for the as
sault upon him by Corbin. Mr.. Randall never
acte d as counsel for Ferguson vs.. Corbn, as
stated in the moral organ" The counsel for
the defendant made such a statement to the
jury, for which he adjudged in contempt,
and, after finding he in a " tight place, ="
made most humble apology to the Justice, and
afterwards to the jury.
The foregoing are the facts in regard to the
matter. The course of Mr. Randall during the
said trial was rigidly legal. dignlfed, and gentle
manly; the conduct of the counsel for the de-
fence, coarse, uncalled for, and unprofessional
Az regards the custom of lawyers bringing ac-
tons before each other, / would say that it has
been the custom from time immemorial, with the
exception found in the two years during which
the Trial Justice" law was in operation, and no
one has ever found fault with the custom, as it
is great saving of time and expense in disposng
of small suits. C. E. PRATT,

Los Hurr.-A full.grown california lion

LION Hurr.--A full-grown California lion
was killed on Whitlock's Creek, California,
OIL the 22d Of August. 1t required several
men and two large-sized dogs to conquer the
animal, which was caught in attempting to
carry off hog. The lion took to a tree,
when shot from one of the party broke one
of his legs and brought him to the ground,
when the dogssclosed with him, and the trio
had a rough and tumble fight for some time,
without any decided advantage on either side.
The lion was at last dispatched with rifles,
but stood considerable shooting, and died
"game" to the last. He measured between
SIX and seven feet from tip to tip and would
probably weigh not less than 100 pounds

A NOVEL MEMORIAL TO PRESIDENT BuCHAN-
AN.--The Bay State publishes a memorial ad-
dressed to President Buchanan, by the Brad
Wales National Democratic" State Central
Committee Of Massachusetts,, for 1854, com
planning bitterly of their destitute condition the
las, few years, while claiming be the only real
"simon-puTe' Democrats inithe Safe, and being
kept away entirely from the national crib"
The document is signed by John w. james of
Boston, Chairman, and Isaac Brown, Secretary,
with FIVE members from Essex County, one from
Middlesex County, and FIVE from Worcester
County-the latter being William Greenleaf,
Eli Warren, Timothy Aldrich. William Edwards,
and Henry L. Studley. 1t is dated Boston, July
Is, 1857, and is devoted to a recapitulation of
their services in behalf of the cause of the Ma
tional Democracy. of the ultra pro slavery
stamp, in years past.
They are most clearly entitled to all they claim
from the present ADMINISTRATION, but it is ex-
fremely doubtful whether they get 1t, if they are
treated so shabbily at Washington as the Bay
State treats them in Worcester-it putting into
their mouths the words, Feed us or we die"
Witness the following extract from the present
organ Of the Worcester County " Democracy;
g Has Democracy no charms for the memorial
lists but those which are to be found, on quarter
day, at the Custom House and the Post Offices
We would fain think more highly of them than
that suggestion of theirs would warrant, in which
it is intimated that, although they have attained
most excellent administration, they are yet in
especial restitution of any particular recognition

ferfants -
