AT the "Jersey Rescue Celebration held at
Syracuse few days ago, John Thomas read an ad-

emancipation, if it was ever reached would come
in a deluge of blood.
"A large number of the respectable Democrats
Of New York, getting tired of the rowdy rule of
that city, have inaugurated an independent move
ment which has for its object the nomination of

strongly supported by the independent voters of

Two or three thousand people attended the bar

present, many ladies ditto, and fine dinner termi-

The Governor delivered feeling and impressive
address, in the course of which he denounced
Stewards "higher law doctrine and the at

Hon. Edward Bates has lately written letter
to the Wings of Lafayette County, Missouri in
which he says that the Wing party, whether in
success or defeat has always been respected because
1t Is naturally respectable and embodies large
proportion of the honest intelligence and patrio-
tlsm of the country. He urges its reorganization
but does not think it is strong enough to act sepa
rately and alone, and therefore should unite with
the Opposition generally, which he thinks involves
no sacrifice of principle.

their business to inquire, for it is their province
merely to point out an offender, and from other
hands than theirs must he receive his acquital or
condemnation Nor can they honestly or honor
ably throw upon any other body, exercising CO.
ordinate jurisdiction, burthen which they
have hesitated to assume themselves The
Constitution did not confer upon the Legis-
lature and the Grand Jury equal powers in
this particular in order that each might shift upon
the other an onerous responsibility but it design
ed, in providing two methods for the removal Of
an unfit Judge, to facilitate the accomplishment of
so vital an object. There can be little question as
to which of these tribunals it becomes the people
of this City to look to for redress The former
meets but once in two years, and during its limi-
ted session it must legisate for the State at large
1t sits moreover in another city, and the expenses
delays and difficulties of an investigation are
greatly multiplied when the witnesses must be
summoned from distance to attend it. An ap-
peal to the Legislature to remove the Judge of the
Criminal Court would come with an i'll grace from
people who had both the means and opportunity
to right themselves and failed to employ them.
The Grand Inquest of the State might well wonder
at the helplessness of great City whose only ex-
ertion in its own behalf is the cry which it puts
up for succor. By the Grand Jury of Baltimore
then, these proceedings should be initiated.
AS upright men they have no alternative, unless
they believe the charges against Judge STUMP to
be slanderous and untrue This they can scarcely
be prepared to say, for these are repeated by
thousand tongues, and are heard wherever his
name is mentioned among men, and have been IA
miliar topics here for months and years Citizens
of every class and party discuss them, and the
unanimous voice of the people demands that he
shall be put upon his defence. Therefore we have
spoken of them plainly, and if we have done so
more harshly and persstently than others it was
not because we found it profitable or pleasur-
able task. But believing that all men concede the
Criminal Court, as at present constituted, to be
scandal to decent community and disgrace to
civilized age and that justice is Knocked and crime
encouraged, and the safety of society itself i'm
perilled, through the contempt which its proceed
ings have brought upon the administration of the
laws, we have deemed it right to protest continu-
ally against the liberation accorded to it. We
have for these reasons urged the Indictment of its
Judge and we think we are justified in repeating
that the Grand Jury either acquits him or seals its
own condemnation, if, knowing all these things,
it still stands mute and inactive

We endeavored to show ON Saturday that III.

We endeavored to show on Saturday, that there
is no legal obstacle in the way of the indictment
and speedy trial of Judge STUMP. We referred to
the clause in the Constitution providing for the
removal of Judges on their conviction for misbe-
havior in Court of law, which is taken literally
from Art. Sc of the old Constitution and is as
explicit as words can make it; and also to the
Act of 1853, which prescribes with equal perspi-
Guilty the mode in which this clause may be made
practically operative. The 22d sec. of the 4th
article of the Constitution prohibits Judge from
sitting in a case in which he is interested and the
Act alluded to, which was passed solely with
reference to this particular section makes it tthe
"duty of the Clerk of the Court in which such a
is depending to certify the fact to some other
Judge, who, "on the receipt of such certificate"
is directed to appoint a special Judge, and the
latter is given full power to summon grand and
fspetit jurors, and to do all things necessary to
t'the trial of such causes.' Within two DAYS
after an indictment is found a special Judge
could be authorized to try it, and this he could
proceed at once to do, unless the language cloth
ing him with 'full power" to "do all things ne
'cessary to the triaP' is void of meaning. 1t
must be conceded by all who will examine
into this matter, that no simpler or speedier
process can be devised for holding public
othcer 10 accountability for his acts That suff-
cient evidence can be obtained, at any moment
within stones throw of the court house itself to
justify presentment against Judge STUMP for
misbehavior in office no one doubts; and that it
would prove such case of misconduct as ia mn
paralleed among the precedents cited under this
head in the law books, most men firmly believe
The duty of the Grand Jury is equally clear IF
Judge STUMP has offended against the law tbev
are bound to notice his delinquencies. They have
sworn that they will diligently inquire and tru.
'presentment make" not only of 'all thinps,,
directly given them in charge, but of all that shall
'otherwise come to their knowledge They ara
to take cognizanze of the misdeeds which the law.
prohibit or punish, and to present them trnlv
according to the best of their understanding. !,
and this, if they are faithful to their obligations.
they must do regardless of the consequences How
far their action may be eectual or polite it is not
