According to the adviees by the latest Eu-
ropean steamer, q remarkable case had oc-
Cured 10 criminal court of Sweden. A man
was tried for capital crime, convicted and
sentenced to death. He was defended by
very able advocate-but it leaked out in the
course OF the proceedings, tina. his lawyer
knew that he was guilty. Whereupon the
SAID lawyer was tried and sentenced to inn
prisonment, for having endeavored to pro-
cure an acquittal of the accused, when he
knew that his client bad perpetrated the crime
as charged. The punishment of member
of the legal profession for such course, may
be correct according to the laws Of Sweden
but IN other countries it will be regarded as
| United States. We nothing doubt that it
will revive the oft-mooted, but never yet sat-
isfactorily settled question, of how far the IL
cense of an advocate in criminal cases, may
| be extended Instances are numerous; and
| several have occurred in this city, in which
| eminent lawyers have refused to defend pris-
| oners, where they were satisfied of the truth
of the accusation. But then there might be
circumstances attending the charge and the
! evidence, that for good defence, a warping
| of the truth, an equivocation, or downright
misrepresentation may have been necessary
and if such were the complexion of an antcr-
pated trial. who can wonder that men of high
professional honor should wash their hands
of it altogether? Still the question remains
not only in morality but in law-what is the
license of an advocate? Conversing few
days since, with an able gentleman of the
long robe upon this subject, he gave it as his
opinion and we may also presume as rule
of generally just practice-that lawyer ac-
quainted with the guilt of his client, might,
as matter of duty, defend person charged
with crime, in the hope, by cross-examina-
tion and otherwise, of showing that the evi
dence for the prosecution was weak, unrelia
bic, and nconclusive-an also adduce miti
gazing points iu the defence, besides showing
in4probabilities. &c. But that, in no case
would he have the right, legally or morally

We publish in another column an extract from a
recent report of committee Of the Brooklyn Com
mon Council, containing information on the subject
of distillery stables, disery milk, and distilery
beef, no less alarming than it is disgusting. 1t
seems that the cows shut up in these distlery
stables are subjected to confinement which can
only be compared to that of the Black Hole of
Calcutta, or to the horrOrsof the Middle Passage.
They are confined by the hundred together with
space allowed to each of three feet in width by
eleven feet in length. Here they are kept tied up,
amid horrible filth, in fetid atmosphere, without
ventilation, from the moment Of entry into their
wretched dens till they die are sold to the butcher,
as the survivors are after few months of this dis
cipline, in order that his knife may anticipate by
little the natural result of this mode of treatment
Nor is this all nor even the worst, for these poor
cows, Immediately upon being shut up in this
squalid confinement, are srtfcially nOculated with
horrid disease which is epidemic, or rather
endemic, in these stables. From the disease COM
municated in this way one cow in five dies, being
MIXED however, 10 the last; but this 10 a less
ratio of mortality than il found to prevail, if the
cows are left to take the disease in the natural
way. Sometimes they die suddenly, exhibiting
upon post.m0rttm examination all sbc signs Of
vegetable poison. Those that linger for longer
time, seem to die of consumption, attended by
cough and fever. In fact the opinion now prevails
that there are two diseases: the sudden one from
some POisOn-and by "A recent improvement in the
the art of dsting, strychnine is used to increase
the quantity of whisky-contained in the swi on
which they are fed; the more lingering one kind
of consumption from the etd air they compelled
to breathe. But having had the disease by inocu-
stOn affords no security against its return. The
moment the signs OF it appear, the cow is sold to
the butcher, to be- dressed for eating and the same
disposition is made of all the cows from the mo-
ment they go dry as in that state the corrupt hu-
mors, no longer being drawn off in the milk, settle
in the lungs, so that the cows chance of surviving
becomes too small to justify the risk of keeping her
any longer. The committee assert that, during the
Winter . large per centage OF the animals killed
for beef in the City of Brooklyn abOring under
this disease.
Such are the facts set forth in the report Of this
Committee. If they are capable of being fully
substantiated, ss We presume they are, the Legis-
laure ought TO take instant measures to put stop
to this attack upon the public health. The very
least they can do would be to require the sellers
to disclose to the purchasers the nature Of the art
ces dealt in. Every milk man selling this milk
ought to have distinctly labeled on his cart and
cans, DIsTILLERY MILK. Every meat man sell
ing the flesh of these cows, should do il under q
sign Of CONSERVATIVE BEEF.

The greater part Of the vessels engaged on inc
African coast in the slave-trade, are in the habit
of using the American flag as means OF protect
ing themselves against search and seizure BY the
Britsh cruisers They have in fact no claim TO the
character of American vessels, for though Amerl-
can-built their nationality has been destroyed BY
their transfer for the very purpose of engaging in
this illegal traffic TO foreign owners II seems that
the British cruisers on the African coast have
recently hit upon method Of smoking ont these
slave.traders from under the cover of the Amerl'
can flag They give these gentry the choice either
of renouncing their false pretense Of being Amerl-
can. throwing overheard their forged papers and
assumed flag and thus putting themselves into their
true position of having no flag or papers at all, in
which character they become subject to seizure,
or else of being seized and turned over to the next
American ship-of war, sent to the United States
At the risk of being tried and hung there as pirates
The Portuguese captsins generally in command
of these vessels not being aware how little risk
they would run BY being sent here for trial, usu-
ally il seems embrace the alternative OF renounc-
inc their pretended American character thus
securing their own release, though at the sacrhee
of the ship and her cargo. 1t appears that several
vessels fitted out in American ports, and which,
though suspected TO be slavers, and perhaps tenn
porsry detained as such, yet succeeded IN getting
away. have BY this mesns fallen into the clutch OF
the British cruisers.
We now come to the odd part Of the business,
which !. this: Commander COnoyer, in command
of orr nav al squadron sent under the treaty with
Great Britain TO the African Coast to assist IN sup
pressing the slaye-trade, seems TO have taken
quite in dudgeon this device of the British COM
manders to prevent the Portuguese Iave-traders
from skulkng under cover of the American nag
He has. it seems. made solemn protest against
captures by the British under such circumstances
claiming it as his exclusive right "to take ana
"brng TO merited punishment those who, while
." they raise the flag of tho United States, offend
against its laws"-sccording to which doctrine
pirate has only 10 hoist the flag of the United
States TO prevent him from being intertered with
by any but United States ship-of-war.
If Commander Conover is really actuated by
zeal for suppressing the slave-trade, and desires
that those who abuse the American flag for that
purpose should not be allowed to escape with the
loss of ship and cargo, but should be brought to
condgn punishment, he has plenty of opportunities
for making examples. 1t would be more to his
credit to make few captures himself. than to oc-
cupy as he seems inclined to do, the position not
of suppressing the abuse of the American flag on
the African coast, but rather of covering these
same slaye-traders against seizure by the British.

age were over. We did suppose that Samuel
johnson, in his Life, his character, his bluff and
bold speech, and in that sad, stern, tragic wall
which fills the last sentences of his Preface to the

this same patronage. In England, the scholars and
