Ciagett Gets the other Eocs Int IL.
Il hardly pays to show up the ineonsisten-
eiss, the pestifoggiDg shifts and the low
demagoguery Of 30 insigni6oant creature
- Clagett, but We must be INDUCED in po-
king him ont Of his latest sssquirm."
He admits that in the oAses cited by US, no
did render DEGREES forclosing and forever
barring the equity Of redemption. And the
reason given 10, that ssit 10 . power within
"the discretion Of the Chancellor, and to be
"exercised or not, in each case, "a the facts
'sare presented to the Court" And that sin
"the oases referred to, the plaintiff, in bis
"pesision, prayed to have the equity Of re-
"demption barred, and the defendants made
emo objection thereto" Nov, the fact 10
that there was no appearance on tho part Of
the defendants in these cases, and according
to Clagett, the Law left il to his sdiscretion, -
and the defendant not being present to de-
fend his own rights, he, the said Clagett, in
the exercise of the discretion committed to
him, proceeded and cut Oh the equity Of re-
demption forever, by decree Of Court. In
other words, he took advantage Of the de
fsndants' absence to deprive them of the
right OF redemption, which he says they had
under the Code. And, in his own words, he
rendered decree in each of these cases
which was Oppressive to the unfortunate
debtor" "clearly and palpably in violation
OF the letter and spirit OF the law sslook-
ing only to the benefit Of money changers and
Shylocks," Oppressive, unjust, and unsus-
tanned by single respectable authority"
10 il all right for Judge to ssviolate the
letter and spirit of Law" because there is NO
one present to objeot2 Must "the unfortu.
nate debtor" expect the Judge to violate the
Law and render an "unjust and oppressive
decree" against him unless he employs 1
lawyer to watch the Court? IL the Judge
entitled to exercise his ssdiscretion" to afa-
vor the interests Of money changers and Shy
locks," simply because tho "unfortunate
debtor" il unable to employ an attorney to
resist the " unjust decree''3
Now, without expressing any opinion our
selves on the mortgage law, or taking one
side or the other Of question upon which
there seems to be some contrariety OF opin.
ion amongst lawyers, We submit that Claeett
has shown himself the veriest pettifogger and
the most contemplate demagogue in the
country. He has in this discussion spoiled
every chance be may have had for Q nomina.

with ridicule and contempt on oil hands.

A German Victory In Texas.
The Charleston Mercury, in an article
from which we quoted, the other day, de-
nounced the election Of Sam Houston az
Freesoil triumph.
IL seems that "Old San Jacinto', owes his
victory to the Support Of the Germans Of
Western Texas. The National Democrat y
declared themselves 10 favor Of the slave
trade, and put up Runnels ~ their candidate
Tor Governor. They were prompted to this
movement in order that they might get q
supply Of cheap slave labor, and with the in.
tux OF Wild African slaves drive out the free
born German laborers, whose nre.re-c..
condition, indep endence and love Of liberty,
were rapidly creating an unfavorable opinion
OF slavery amongst the masses OF the popu.
lation.
The old champion Of liberty and indepen-
dence announced himself candidate. and
made vigorous onslaught upon the slave.
trading National Democracy under the lead
Of Runnels. The oppositios Freesoil
Democrats and the freedom loving Germans
rallied to the standard OF the brave old he.
70, routed the aristocratic cohorts OF the
slave Democracy and achieved . glorious
victory 10 behalf OF the cause Of Freedom.
