TRIAL OF CONFIDENCE MRN.-We men
toned, several days ago, the arrest of eight
confidence men on charge of vagraucy,
who were held to await Identification by
parties who had recently been swindled.
An old man named William Lance has recog-
nized William Morrison and Joseph Baxter
IS indebted to him to the extent Of ST, OBJ.
tained in the following manner: While on
the Forest Queen one day last week, Morri-
son fell into conversation with him, and
represented himself as the nephew of par
ticular friend of the old gentleman's residing
at some point down the river, whom he was
then on the way to visit.
The bland and agreeable young man COM
pletelRwon the heart of "his uncle's friend"
and the parties were soon on the best posi-
bic terms with each other. at this point
Baxter entered and desired Morrison to
change $50 bill. Not having the requisite
amount of money, it was referred to the old
gentleman, whose funds were also too lin
tied; but to enable the young gentlemen to
continue their journey, he was induced to.
lend them SIT, with which they managed to
elude his observation and escape. To-mor-
row they will appear in the Police Court
room with faces smoothly shaven instead of
wearing heavy whiskers as at the time the
confidence game was effected. They doubt
less hope that Lance will be unable to swear
to their identity in Court.

ment, frequently come in contact with :he
Administration. We have had but one
Government in this country from the
adoption of the Constitution--but we have
had many Administrations of which the
present is likely to prove the most illus
trious. Every Administration, from WASH
ir eton TO Buchanan, has had its enemies
and violent assailants; yet nobody ever
before thought of calling men, on this ac-
count, traitors and rebels TO the Govern
ment, or of treating them az such. The
doctrine of veneration for an Administra-
ton right or wrong, Is the doctrine OF
/ Dcspotism. The Ty rants Of the earth al

acts and must ii he said that ireemen in
this free country, cannot differ from their
President, without becoming liable TO the
pains and penalties Of traitors! This is
indeed terrible doctrine. rh.s is run,
/, ming The Machine with a vengeance. This
is liberty alormingly illustrated.
We believe the President of the United
States is the creature Of the people. They
placed him where he is, ard gave him all
the power he possesses. lie is their sere
want, to administers "A Government founded
ON Justice and Equality, before Abraham
Lincoln was born For the faithful exc
cution of this trust he is, and must be,
accountable to those to whom he belongs
and any man. and every man, has right
an inalienable right "A constitutional
right to question, to discuss, to investi-
gate thoroughly, any and every executive
act, without being II traitor, or guilty OF
attempting TO break down the Govern
lment. Eternal vigilance is the price of
liberty !" and that man is slave and Il
coward who fails to exercise it and that
Ruler is a tyrant tha: attempts to abridge
or destroy this sacred right; and that
Press is the advocate of oppression that
excuses its abridgment and that editor
is the mere tool of party who sees nothing
wrong in the Administration he has help,
ed to bring into power though all his en-
ergies have for years b;cn used to ovor-
throw and break down Administrations,

CAPTAIN Shuttleworth, Of the Marine

efficiency in his active detachment of ma

the st. Mary's resolutions. They are per-
fectly horrible And The Democracy of
the whole district must be held TO then

much all or any part OF them may be dis
avowed.
We have said that these resolutions
have no binding eiiect-and that the par :

thereof, was responsible for them
But perhaps it may be well to refer to
memorable precedent, and one of so re-
cen: IA date that il cannot have escaped

follows:
"Re.olred, That we hail with pleasure the
Inauguration Of new Ella in the affairs Of ouI

WIND UP THE PRESENT FARCE OLA GOV
ERNMENT."
This resolution appears to have been
TIE unanimous expression of opinion OF
the Relub b lican Congressional Convention
that nominated Gen. Patton for Congress
at Ridgway last year, and if the proceed
ings were correctly reported, Mr.. Mckn'
ally, tue present candidate for the Leg $
lature, was a member of the committee
that digested the above resolution. Do
our Republican friends hold themse!v es

Have the sen riments of that resolution
been disavowed since? Does Mr.. McEn>

last, and Will he so legsate in case of his
election? These are important questions,
whicL the people would Ike to have an,

WV. +. JOHNSON, EsQ all the mis-
cradle attempts ever made to esca pc from
c dirty scrape, that Of the last journal to
apologize for, or rather TO justify, its
slanderous attack upon the above named
gentleman, caps the climax. OF course,
from his close connection with the
whole transaction, the public will take it
for granted that this is Mr.. Swoope's own
effort. And what an effort it is And for
lawyer 10 make Shades Of Blackstone,

to be found among thy disciples
A man is chargod-dstinctly and posi-

his defence, showing the oxtrame improb-
ability of his guilt. HIS accusers, not sat-
isfed, but in hot pursuit OF bis blood-do
not, IN accordance with the rules of law
and of common sense, too,-prooeed to
prove him guilty-but demand that the

not prove himSey "bcyond tie possibility Of a

This is tho sum and substance of the

effort to blacken an innocent mans char

m conclusion, Mr.. johnson is advised
to say no more about it. Perhaps he will
take this advice; and perhaps his tradu.
