Mr.. Forney writes conciliatory and earnest
appeal to the Union party to unite and not
divide on any present issues. The temper of
this appeal is the best, and the motives of the
writer above suspicion. He thinks we have
come to halt, that the battle is over, that
nothing more is left to fight for, and that our
future is constant enjoyment Of victory. Is
there not law Of progress Are we not
always moving on-going from better TO better
in the endeayor TO reach the contamination of
national peace and prosperity 1t may be the
cause of the politician to close the eyes and re-
fuse TO see what lies in the immediate future.
1t may be very charming to lie like lotus.eaterS
on the luxuriant sands, and look forever on sea
and beach and sky. But we live in living
world. There are battles TO be fought, preju-
dices to be overcome, great duties to be full
filled. If we rest, We stagnate. The world
moves on. The life Of the Union party is
active, honest thought. When God created the
heavens and the earth, it was not the work Of
one day, nor did lie rest until many breathed.
For US there is no rest. Let Vi have kindness

TN, II,yoId's statement that more crimes

The HeTaid's statement that more crimes are
committed in "puritanic New-England than
in New-York (and we suppose all the rest oi
the continent), will not bear the test OF stats
tics. New England is very large district,
with very crowded population, but we are not
at pains TO take that into account. Out OF
mass of ninety murders, chronicled for less than
six months, nearly one half fall to the sin OF
New.York. England, if we have to reckon
it as one State, comes second, but far behind;
and Illinois, Indiana and Pennsylvania follow.

New England, should collate It's testimony ae-

erS into painful candor.

Evidence for the defense in thr vilsfran.I
case is published this morning. lit is the b.
Capt. Anderson has to offer, it would have be,,V
prudent for him to have let his case resi- via
the prosecution-bad as it was. The te.timn,,
he offers is something worse than weak. it il nj.
sound, and the defense, SO far, is fictitious. n.
instance, Mr.. Cooper, provision dealer |.
called to testify that he supplied the villairanc.
with first-class meat for this voyage, but HI
turns out on examining the ships carpenter
AndersOns witness-that some of the meat -
the ship was left over from the last yova9.
There might have been ten or twelve barrels s|
it, says Cooney. An effort is made to SHOW
that the provisions Of emigrant ships are in.
spected at London, but it does not appear thu.
the tainted barrels were examined.
Again, the carpenter says he weighed IN.
meat for each passenger, giving him a fuu
pound. The ships scales are produced. VIII,
ness is asked to show how he weighed pound
by them Lie makes no reply. 1t appears q
examining the scales that the lowest mark o,
them is four pounds, beside which they ar,
rusty and evidently have not been used at all.
Yet it is on such evidence Capt. Anderson relie,
to show that his passengers were supplied with
the allowance to which they were entitled.
The medical attendance on the ship wss
brought in question. Bauer, the fourth-msss
Of the ship, testifes that he acted as DOCTOR the
captain also prescribing. Bauer swears: "Ons
child was sick of diarrhea and prescribed 4
little tincture Of rhubarb [laughterl or little
magnesia, or something of that sort for it loud
laughter; 1 cannot tell which," 1t certainly
is no laughing matter A captain so careless d
the lives of his passengers as to allow a
ignorant fourth-mate to administer medicine i
by that fact proved unfit to command a
emigrant-ship.
Capt. Anderson's examination was again post
Doned till Monday. The case has now assumed
such character, and has attracted so much at.
tention, that We presume no further eiGt will b
made to "bluG of" the prosecution. Unless .
score of passengers have conspired- WITHOUT any
conceivable motive, if well treated-to swear 70
tissue of falsehoods, it is certain that the food
and treatment on board the Villafranca were
bad. The captain must be held responsible fof
that If he is allowed to throw it of on subor.
dinate officers, there is no possible security OF
protection for the passengers on any ship. And
since we have statutes to govern such abuses.
we trust that one Of the few cases in which it
has been found possible to bring testimony to
bear will be pursued vigorously to the end.

We beg our friends in Connecticut to remem-
Der that they have short time in which to work
for their Free Suffrage Amendment. They are
wrong if they suppose the sham Democrats are
not hard at work to defeat it. 1t is to be made
a party matter on that side, and there will be n
strong vote out to defeat measure which is
rightly supposed to involve in principle the
whole question of suffrage for the Rebel States.
COpperhcad Democracy doesn't care much
whether few Connecticut negroes vote, but it
cares great deal whether some hundred OF
thousands vote down South. Connecticut is to
supply strong argument ono way or the other
for Universal Suffrage in this country. Do not
