The Case Of S. NJ. Booth.

Dir. S. N. Booth, now confined in the
U. S. Custom House in this city, for
an alleged violation of the Fugitive
Act, has written TO the Sentinel and
Free Democrat, to complain Of the
treatment he receives at the hands OF
the I. S. Marshal, and to announce his
determination, neither to pay the fine
imposed upon him by Judge Miller, nor
to sue for pardon from the President.
The N6'ss Of Sunday morning, COM
menting upon Mr.. Booths letter, says ::
Its true, that for all this S. NJ. Booth
will continue to suffer the penalties of
violated laws, et1Je5s he gets do2cn or
has A7aeas and 5Ggs for mercy. Let
him do this and we doubt not bis pris-
on bars would open.
No doubt the N6,cs speaks 'Hby au-
thority," in this matter, and Mr.. Booth,
if he wishes to be let out of prison, has
only to comply with the easy condition
Of going dorm on hjS knees and beg
aj'2g for mercy" from Judge Miller,
President Buchanan and the rest of
the Slavery Propaganda. Strong as is
every mans desire for liberty, we doubt
whether the magnanimous terms pro-
posed by the Ners will be accepted by
Mir. Booth. But the offer betraYs, very
clearly, the spirit of the whole prosecu-
ton. If lir. Booth can be disgraced
aud humbled in his own estimation and
that Of his fellow-citizens generally, by
being compelled to "got down on his
knees to the Slave Power, our Demo
cratic functionaries will be satisfied
But short Of this, they propose to keep
him III prison for an indefinite period
