Hyatt, the Martyr.

Thaddeus Hyatt is still enjoying his martyrdom.
Probably the principal drawback is the fact that
the country don't consider itself in peril, and
don't regard him as the representative of an.
abstract principle that is essential to its con
servation. We presume he reads DR.. Cheever's
sermons with great satisfaction 1t is to be hoped
that though they fail to convince Others they NAV
comfort him. He thinks he stands between the
country and destruction the difficulty being the
country does not understand its condition, not
having been educated up to the proper alti-
him the other day, and found him suffering in
health and pecuniary interests, but frm-firm as
the Senate House. The Sentinel says:
Mr.. Hyatt says he knows nothing about John
Brown that he is unwilling to testify before
proper tribunal. But he denies that the Senate
has any right to require his testimony; and he in
ssts the Constitution does not confer such powers
upon them as they have assumed to exercise. This
Is the stand he makes, for the principle, and that
only. They have him in their power and are
crushing him without mercy. He knows that he
can be released Immediately upon telling the little
that he knows, which will hurt no one, but he says
this will be giving up the principles and forming
precedent under which more tyranny may be per-
petuated.''
Well, this is dreadful condition Of things. Mr..
Hyatt knows very little about the subject matter
of investigation by Senator Mason's committee
and the telling Of that little would not hurt any
| body. Now the pesky Senate assumes the right
to question this gentleman about the little he does
know, and he is willing to be Intercepted
| the Senate must acknowledge it has no right to
ask him anything. If the Senate will say it has no
| right to ask him question, he will answer any
| question the Senate may be pleased to ask.
| Preparatory to making an inquiry, the Senate
must ackno Wedge that has no authority to make
t-otherwise the people are in peril, our liberties
| are to be snbverted, our republican institutions
oyerthrown. Hence Hyatt is another Hampden
And DIR. Gheever-the gentleman whose church is
partly supported by begging in England-recom-
mends that mob be dispatched to release the rep
resentative man Thaddeus, the American people
| being imprisoned in his person. Wendell Phillips
/ is also in favor of some process beside habeas
| corpus, for the release Of the modern Hampden.
History is ransacked for precedents, showing the
| tremendous importance OF very small matters and
the New York boysf are assured that the ages
\ will frown upon them as towards, il they do not
march upon Washington and lay the den of the
| tyrants in ruins OF course, Fessenden and Cola
mer the great lawyers of the Senate, representing
| the States Of Vermont and Maine, where tyranny
holds undisnnted sway, will be the first victims Of
the proposed raid for the release of Hyatt-that is
| if the American people should not be found want
i ing in spirit according to the tests applied by
Cheeyer and Phillips. [Cin. Commercial.
