JUDGE UNDERWOOD.

At the United States Circuit Court in Rich
mond on the 9th instant, opened ostensibly for
the purpose Of entering upon the trial Of JEFF
ferson Davis, Judge Underwood delivered a
second charge of the Grand jury, in which he
indulged in a TRADE against the people and
press Of Richmond.
1t would be impossible TO find in the annals
Jurisprudence, since the world began, dOcu-
ment so undigni6ed and indecent, in style, and
so malignant in spirit. The thought that such
a man should sit on the bench once adorned by
Marshall is humiliating in the extreme, not
merely to Virginians, but to every American
who respects the judicial Office, and feels an in
terest in the honor Of the country.
If the RIGHTEOUSNESS which he denounced de-
served rebuke, how much more does the SLAM
derous harangue of the Judge merit reproba-
tion2 It could have created no other feeling
than disgust, even among the most radical ofthe
auditors

WINCING.


Az evident wincing is perceptble among the
individuals who recently voted to forever dis
franchise more than four hundred of their
neighbors, and strip them of the rights be-
longing to every freeman.
Whilst the excluded will not undertake to
contest the prir7ege graciOusly granted these
twelve Apostols of radicalism by the Board of
Registrars, yet they can 50 far shape their
conduct towards them as to convince them that
they can be met upon Ike premises; and. if
they meet with the ''cold shoulder, as they de-
serve, they must blame themselves.
What claim can these proscriptionists have
upon our community? They are not friends
but enemies, and should be treated as such.
The protestations Of some Of these of non
completely in the late outrage upon their neigh
bors viii not avail them, unless they pursue
the course adopted by one Of the voters. There
is deception somewhere, and the odium should
rest in the right place
We heard it remarked the other day -" The
man who would vote to disfrauchize his o,cn
son would not hesitate to remove from theeyes
Of a dead relative the coppers placed there by
the hand Of friendship to close them
It seems we have iust such in our midst

CIRCUIT COURT.

The Circuit Court for this County commenced
on Monday last, in Shepherdstown, Judge HALL
presiding. The new brick edifce, built by the
liberal donation of the late R. D. SHEPHERD,
being now completed, is occupied for Court
purposes. The building is not large, but is
very handsome structure, and an ornament to
the town.
The charge of the Judge to the Grand Jury
occupied about one hour and half, as he reci-
ted the subjects which would require their at
tention. We approved his caution to the jury
against entertaining frivolous complaints OF
those who might appear before them from pri-
vate spleen, thus encumbering the docket, &c.
On the whole Judge H., seems to give gene
raj satisfaction.
Outof about t,rcnty of the +" Green Bag gen.
try present, we noticed but fire who formerly
practiced at the jefferson Bar, an exclusion IN
consequence of the odious and unconstitutional
test oath. Thisstateof things cannot last long.

ALMOST BEATEN AT THEIR
OWN GAME.

Notwithstanding the fraud committed by the
Board Of Registrars in depriving 1900 legal
voters Of this County from voting, they were
almost defeated in their mean and dirty under
ground work. Out of SOS votes polled they
could find but zoo men base enough to vote
for their iniquitous mountaineering only
"A majority
We are pleased to learn that FIVE of the seven
Supervisors elected are conservative, and will
no doubt act with more fairness than character
lied portion Of the late Board. One at least
of their number held a Federal position in
direct conflict with the Constitution Ri,t DC
private interests are to be subserved the radicals
stop at nothing to carry ont their schemes.
The leaders of the radical party are pension
ers upon the County. They give to the Town
ship Clerks $500 per annum each, for doing
absolutely nothing We trust the new Board
will relieve the Tar Payers of the County of
these expenditures. 1t will be remembered
they are deprived of a voice in regulating this
drain upon their purses. Twenty-Five dollars
would be ample for all the duties to be per-
formed by them, which would DO a saving of
81 POS per annum.
The Supervisors get but two dollars per day
when in sessions, whilst these do-nothing Clerks
receive 5000 per anuum.

The Spirit of the President.

The humane and noble sentiments expressed
by President JOHNSON, in his address to the
National Union Fair, will find warm response
in every generous bosom. He would not have
charity to American orphans to be dispensed
in the spirit of sectionalism. Whether the or
phan be the child of the Northern or of the
Southern soldier in the late war, he is still an
American orphan and entitled to the sympathy
and assistance of all Americans. His appeal
for the cultivation of fraternal feelings and the
virtues of peace was touching and eloquent.

FROM WASHINGTON.

The counsel for Mr.. Jefferson Davis made
application on Monday last for his release upon
bail. Judge Underwood refused to entertain
the application on the ground that as the ac-
cused is prisoner of war, the civil tribunal
over which he presided has no authority to act
in the matter
The Washington Star says:
It is understood that Horace Greeley, of the
New York Tribune, Augustus Schell, and HOr-
ace j. Clark, of New York, are among the gen.
tlemen who have offered to become bondmen
to the amount of $4,000 each, for the appear
ance of jefferson Davis for trial at the next term
of the Court at Richmond"

and vicinity assembled at the Presbyterian Lecture
Room on Monday and Wednesday Afternoons, to
perfect their arrangements for appropriate servi-
ces on Wednesday, 9th inst, in honor of the Con-
federate Dead buried in our midst.

which the Ladies have taken hold of this matter,

the fallen braves, and that our town will be throngsd
with those who will come laden with their floral
