A Legal Mob Saves a Murderer.

The Chicago Times, of the 9th, has been
furnished with full detail of the circum-
stances of murder trial in that State,
which is almost parallel with similar one
which occurred not long since in neigh
boring county, The Times says of it edi-
orially:
In February. 1854 there was a dance at a
louse in Montgomery county. Among
,thers present were a furloughed soldier
famed Halford, and two brothers named
Allen. During the course of the evening
| ONE dispute arose about the music, where
l ne of the Aliens and severely wounded
( he other. Halford made his escape, re-
1 lrned TO the army, and, when the war
slosed, he came back to Montgomery
Iounty. He was arrested, but by change
In ueRue his case was taken to Bond county.
he trial appears to have been one of the
lost atrocious moekeries ever known.
he defence rested solely upon the plea
Z hat the deceased was Democrat and the
lurderer n soldier. The abolition fanat-
is of Bond county gathered in force to
] | stain the murderer and to secure his es-
Inc. either by an overwhelming pressure
Il the Jury or by q forcible rescue in case
/ was convicted. The speech of the eoun-
for the defence was applauded at every
kp by the mob of spectators and no re-
Ike was administered by the Judge. The
ktructions of the politician who at once
eupied and disgraeed the judicial seat,
kre equivalent to an acquittal. The jury
> bs Instructed by the court, overawed by
A, III mob, and probably carried away by
lEir own political sympathies, acquitted
prisoner almost without leaving their
It's. And then the gushing females of
Ind county threw themselves upon the
Grated murderer and kissed his cheeks
4 lips and hair and hands.

eB- A new Freedman's Bureau bill is now
in course of preparation, and will soon be
presented TO the House, by ELLIOTT, OF
Massachusetts,. 1t is not stated whether il
will contain clause for the protection OF
white children in New England cotton
mills, against brutal beatings, by overseers,
and exactions of mill-owners for young
girls to labor twelve to fifteen hours each
day. Most assuredly such provision is
needed there.

eE-The new Revenue bill, as reported for
the House, will reduce the taxes ofthe peo-
pie but about forty millions of dollars.
1t has been satisfactorily shown that the old
system, still at work, is drawing one hundred
and si1ty-fve millions more from the sub
stance of the workers and producers than is
needed, after allowing a most astounding
balance to support the Government with.
Such is the character of the relief flegislated,
by radical statesmen" for the lifting of the
nations crushing burthens!

those reckless fanatics of its party, that il

Almost as Good as a Niger!

Mr.. SUMNER, in a speech in the Senate the
other day. on n bill to indemnify naval con-
tractors for losses on work done for the Gov
ernment, paid this handsome compliment to
the white mechanics of the North:
1T would be simply an act of justice to
make good these losses to the mechanics OF
the country, who had contributed almost as
much, tods about to say, as eren the freed
men, to the national success
The white mechanics of the North are
considered by this abolition snob to be al
most as important to the national success as
the negroes of the South!

A WHALE IN PORTLAND HARBoR-The

hump.oached whale cameinto the harbor there
and swan past all the wharves, under both
railroad bridges, and on till the shoal water

backward course. A boats crew, regularly
EQUIPPED for whaling, set out in pursuit, bu.
leviathin avoided Its approach with great in.
suncuye dexteriiy. number of rified balls
were fired into him, but with no effect in re-
tarding his movements. Finally he was har.
pooned, but the hold il had in the monsters
carcase gave way after he had dragged the boat
n great distance. A bomb lance was fired at
him, which went through his back and explod.
ed on the other side. The Argus says this ma ie
him get ont OF the way with the speed of
An express train. Up he went to Vaughan's
bridge, whirled about and rushed down like
mao, striking on the ways from which the
monitor was launched near the railroad bridge
with such force as to 60 nearly high and dry
out Of the water. Here came an immense
struggle. The huge fish rolled on his side,
threw his great tail into the air, and in his en-
deavOrs 10 get OFF dashed the water 10 foam for
yards about. His struggles did not seem TO
avail him, bat the rapidly rising tide soon
placed him afioat again. A few more frantic
rushes from shore 10 shore resulted, and the
monster then made direct bolt through the
bridges. down the harbor and away to the nd. .
vantage of himself and the disappoin tment of
the thousands of spectators.
