and harmonious expression OF the in
telligent public opinion of the people of

will influence our citizens to oppose, in
proper and lawful manner, all
schemes which are calculated to result
in negro dominion and the utter de-

WILMINGTON, DEL, Nov. LIN the
Court OF General Sessions of Delaware,
at Dover, yesterday, in the case of the
State against Moses Rash. it being pro-
posed by the prosecuting officer TO pre-
sent the evidence of complainant, Saml
Dewey, colored man, objection WAS
made by ComeGys, counsel for defense,
that the laws of Delaware do not per-
NIT colored testimony, when there are
competent white witnesses. Chief JUS
tice Gilpin ruled that the testimony be
admitted, because he said it had been
customary il his Court to permit prose-
cutting witnesses to testify, even though
they were colored; but he gave as his
opinion from the bench, upon a point
which could Ms we'll be settled now as
at any other time, that the Civil Rights
bill of Congress, SO far as it assumed to
regulate and control the admission or
rejection of testimony in this State,
which was regulated by the laws of the
Slate, was imperative and void. Judge
Wooden concurred in the decision, and
Judge Wales dissented. In case of a
decision to this effect by the Court, an
appeal to the Court above will doubt
less be sustained.

correspondent with the Indian Com
mission, telegraphs that the treaty
made with the Cheyennes also included
one with the ArapAhoes. Their reser-
walton will be south of Kansas. Aside
from certain clothing, these tribes are
to receive $4,000 annually. They with
draw all opposition to the railroad. and
agree to keep the peace. \ deIial OF
the privilege of hunting between
Smoky Hill and Platte rivers would
have been continuance of war. The
Kansas people are not satisfied with

THE UNrRFcEDkNrED SUCCESS OF
The evening telegraph. [volume] (Philadelphia [Pa.]) 1864-1918, 1867-05-28

This is precisely the point upon which the
great MACS Of the loyal people of the Union
will take issue with Greeley and his straw bail
operation. While very few persons believe
that JEFF. Davis had an active share in the
assassination Of President Lincoln, everybody
of common sense, and Greeley among the
number, knows that the crime was the natural
effect of the Rebellion and its exciting appeals
to the prejudices and passions of reckless men.
jeff. Davis may not with his own hands have
snatched the food from the starving Union
soleiers at Andersonville, Salisbury, and
Millen, or shot them down when in their
despair they cast themselves beyond the dead
line" of their prison-pens; but as the head of
the Rebel armies and the ruler of the Con-
federaoy he had supreme power over his
subordinates, and was responsible for the
treatment of his prisoners. If the captured
Rebels confined in the loyal States had been
left to rot and die by the ten thousand
in Northern prisons, would the Copper
heads who now pat Greeley on the
shoulder and pour sixty thousand dollars
worth of Corporation advertising into his lap,
have acquitted the Republican President of all
responsibility for their murderY The people
hold that the Rebellion was great crime, and
not Simple and venial ofense; and out of
it grew the heavy sufferings of the nation; the
loss of millions of treasure; the desolation of
hundreds of thousands of homes; the horrors
of the Confederate prison pens; the assassna-
tion of Lincoln, and all. They are not willing
to allow the master spirit of the Rebellion to
60 unpunished, and the arm of the law to be
paralyzed by the special pleas and quibbles
put forth by JEFF. Davis straw bail. An in
cendiary who sets fire to a dwelling does not
directly take the lives of the victims who
perish in the flames; but he is nevertheless
held responsible for their fate, and suffers the
penalty awarded to wlful murder.
The cry Of the Republican party and Gree
ley among the rest, has been "punish the
Rebel leaders and let the misled masses CO."
The principal count in their indictment against
Andrew Johnson is, that he has shown too
much lenienoy and sympathy towards the
leading Rebels. But now Greeley turns round
and stultifes his party and justiies Johnson
by fawning upon the great head of the Rebel
lion, the arch-traitor Of all traitors, the auto
crat of the reasonable Confederate Govern
ment and securing his release from Jail and
his escape from punishment. 1t is for this
offense that the Republicans of the West, and
of the whole country, indict Horace Greeley
as black sheep in the flock; and all the 'nar-
row-minded blockheads'' of the Union League
Club cannot release him from the charge on
straw bail.
