Law.

An upper mill and lower mill
Fell out about their water;
To war they went-that is, to law,
Resolved to give no quarter.
A lawyer was by each engaged,
And hotly they contended,
As fees grew slack, the war they waged,
They judged we're better ended.
The heavy costs remaining still,
Were settled without bother;
One lawyer took the upper mill,
The lower mill the other.

WHAT MAKES A MAN.

A truthful soul, loving mind,
Full of affection for its kind;
A spirit firm, erect, and free,
That never basely bends the knee;
That will not bend feather's weight,
OF slavery's chain for small or great
That truly speaks from God within;
That never makes a league with sin !;
That snaps the fetters despots make,
And loves the truth for its own sake /;
That worships God and Him alone,
And bows no more than at his throne
And trembles at no tyrant's nod;
A soul that fears no one but God.
And thus can smile at curse or ban
This is the soul that makes the man.

But mot only ala Gov. Morton thus

~ But not only did Gov. Morton thus
procure the arrest of the murderers of
Hampton, he caused eminent counsel to
be employed to assist in the prosecution
Of the case Judge L. Q. DeBruler, Of
Spencer County-where the crime was
: committed-was employed, as were also
General James NJ Shackford and B.
Hynes, Esq, and Col. c. H. Butterfield,
of this place, and VIM p. Edison, Esq
of Posey County, was employed as local
! counsel. Your correspondent was pres
ent in his capacity as Circuit Prosecutor.
The result verified the proverb that Gin
the multitude Of counsel there is safe
ty."
4 Able counsel were also retained for
the defense Messrs. Ezra Dyer and
Col. Charles DENLY, of this place, and
Gen. VIM. Harron, of Posey. His Honor
William F. PARROT, Judge of the Thir-
teenth Judicial Circuit, presided ably at
the trial. Let it never be said that the
Carlisles did not have fair and impair
tial trial. We have never witnessed deep
err emotion in a court room than when
Mrs. Hampton, lovely young woman,
of about twenty two years of age, iden-
tilted the clothing of her dead husband.
Her self-control, for moment, failed
her, and she gave way to torrent of
grief
The case was opened for the State by
w. r. Hargrave, Esq The argument
was subsequently conducted by Messrs.
Hynes, Shackford and DeBruler, for the
State, and by Messrs. Dyer, Harrow and
DENLY for the defense Learned coun-
sci fully sustaine d their high regulations
as criminal lawyers; but it was on all
hands conceded that the effort Of Judge
DeBruler, who closed for the State, was
most able and powerful.
The jury, after having been fully in
structed by the Court, retired at noon,
Saturday, the Sth instant, and at o'clock
=. NJ, brought in a verdict Of guilty Of
murder in the first degree, and that the
defendants be imprisoned in the State
prison at hard labor for life.
The old man, when asked if he had
any thing to say why senterce should not
be pronounced. denied his guilt in very
guarded terms, and begged to be reliev-
ed Of the hard labor portion of the sent
ence, on account of his age, as he said
he was more than sixty years old. The
young man said nothing, but received
his sentence with apparent calmness.
The verdict of the jury in this case is
calculated to reassure the public mind,
which had begun to doubt whether crime
could be adequately punished any more.
The doors of the penitentiary have al
ready closed upon John NJ. and Cyrus
Carlisle, shutting them out from the
world forever; and one Of the foulest
murders eff our time has been Justly pun
ished ; at the same time the honor of the
State of Indiana has been indicated
from invasion by rebels and outlaws.
