GrnY.-Thc trial Of Phil. Quinlan. for
forging county orders, took place on lhusday
and Friday. For the people Prosecuting
Attorney Bigelow, assisted by A. Webster
For the defendant Messrs. Peasants, Wells
and Sweeney. The jury found Qulnau gull
ty, and fixed his term in the peuien,lary a,
three years.
1t is hardly necessary To republish the evil
dence. We published it, in full At the exam
nation before Esq. Connolly. The evidence
in the circuit court did not differ materially
from that q, the examination, except we are
informed, that G. A, Mclaughlin swore posi-
lively that the filing up OF the orders and the
signature of Joseph Comet, the clerk, was in
the hand writing Of the prisoner. This was
regarded as conclusive, and we suppose there
cannot be a reasonable doubt in the mind Of
any man who heard the evidence that the
jury have given Il correct verdict
Mary Ann Brown, alias the Great West
ern," has also been tried and convicted Of
larceny, and her term in the penitentary fix
ed at one year
These are all the criminal trials, us yet
during the present term.
At the close Of the term we shall publish
complete list Of all the cases, civil and crimi
nal, with the disposition made ofthem.

of war, may, without permits, pass from the

Of emancipation. These slaves arc kept
at home raising products to feed our
fighting enemies, and thus are part Of
the cnemy's lighting power. Strike their
shacklcs from them Mr.. Lincoln by an
emancipation proclamation by virtue Of
the war power placed in you, and as a
war measure, to deprive the enemy Of
just one third Of their force. This is
thetruc policy. The crisis now demands
it. What say you Mr.. Crusty who will
"not vote for an aboli,ionist ?" Are you
in favor of cmancipting the slaves, if
that is necessary III connection with the
action Of our armies, in order to ensure
the speedy suppression of this rebellion,
or arc you in favor Of not taking every
advantage Of your enemy and by such
means continue this unholy and cspen-
sive war All indefinite number of years,
in order that you may eventually have
the "Union as it was and the Constitu-
ton as it is" or more probable no Union
or Constitution at all? What say you?
You are in favor Of one or the ether
certainly. If You are in favor Of the
latter and we really believe some of your
cast arc, you are dirty stripped poll
teal demagogue who cares more for the
success of your party than you do for
the country, if you are in favor Of the
former, you are an abolitionist, notwi,h-
standing the perfect adherence which
you may have of the name. Don't be
afraid Of the name. 1t hurts no one
now to be called an abolitionist except
he who has an iron hcarttempercd mean
enough to steal negroes, and pocket the
money or give it to the rebels. Look out
for the emancipation proclamation of
the President before long.

worse than treachery, to duty in the
field again.
