The Assassination Trials.

In Difference to strong outside pressure
in favor Of an open trial Of the assassin
alton c%onspirators. the order excluding re-
porters and prohibiting the publication Of
the proceedings, has been refunded
Whatsoever arguments might be ad-
duced in defence Of q secret investiga-
ton, there is no controverting the fact
that such a course would be repugnant to
the moral sense of the people at large,
injurious to the honor O. the nation, and
tending to shake confidence in the decis.
ion, whatever it might be. The whole
people are deeply interested in the ques-
ton Of the guilt or innocence of the 40.
cused, and consider it their right to know
what the facts brought out on tho trial
are, that they may judge for themselves
oe the business of the decision arrived at.
We clip the above from the Cleueland
Herald of Monday last. "Secret trials
are injurious to the honor'of the nation,'
says the Herald. Why is it that the
Herald never came to that conclusion be.
fore 7 Why did it not, for "tbe honor Of
Of the nation" denopnce the illegal and
and arbitrary arrests Of our best citizens,
who were tried before secret military
commissions, where the civil courts were
unobstructed Such proceedings @ere
as the Democracy have always claimed
gross u~surpations Of powor--'injurious tc
the honor of the r%ation," and we are re
joiced that our contemporary of the Her
aid now sees the injustice Of these secret
midnight military commissions,
"While the lamp holds out to burn" &c.

THE JEW SLIGHTLY RILED

The "big bag Of dirt tied up nasty"
that runs the Times froths and fumes
like a rabid dog in search Of some object
to fasten his poisoned fangs. upon. We
will give him a file to gnaw at. lie
talks about honor and patriotism Bah !
Honor The man that can swindle his
own mother out Of a land warrant, after
she had bestowed years Of anxiety to
raise, feed and educate such a wretch,
ought to whine and shipper over private
character. Accused of deliberately swim
ding the volunteers of this and other
townships out of several thousand dollars
of their bounty, he should boast over his
patriotism, and try to excite returning
soldiers to mob violence towards the De-
mocracy. He is just the maa to screen
the scribbler who pilfered whole para.
graphs from EVERETT, re.moddled, and
then tried to palm them upon this com.
munity as something original. Oh. you
are a beauty
We ask pardon Of our subscribers fol
again bringing this filthy dog to their no
tice, and shall hereafter let him snarl
aud whine without let or hindrance.
