the characters Of the lawyers arrayed
against each other. Quits, Nelson,
Groesbeck, Eyarts, and Stanberv. are
all men Of unblemishcd reputation, and
stainless lives. Nelson has passed
through more yicissitudes, which were
incident to the disturbed condition of
the State from which he comes but
he has always borne himself as a man of
courage and honor. On the opposite
side, we have Thaddcus 2tcycns. tco
well known in Pennsylvania for US to
deed to say word of him. Thomas
Williams Is the iepudiator o! Allegheny
County-many of our citizens know OF
him to their cost. Butler is .he man
who dlsgraced the title Of General dur.
ing the war in that station he was still
the pettifogging, intriguing knave that
he had always been as an attorney and
politician. Mr.. Lincoln ended his
military career 6y removing him from
his command, and Grant wrote his mihs
tary history in a few contemptuous
words in his report. Bingham gained
his hotoricty as the prosecutor of Mrs.
Surratt, before which little was known
Of him. and that little not favorable, A
military commission of the hangers on
OF the War Department were appointed
to t"y the assassins Of Mr.. Lincoln. The
chief of them, Booth had already es.
capped human justice. The Court was
ready to convict anybody brought before
it Fate brought thither the untor,u.
nate Mrs. Surratt, with irons on her feet
add manacles on her wrists. A respec
table lady of Maryland, her case eulist-
ed the sympathy of the venerable law>
yer and Senator from that State, Rever.
dy johnson, who appeared as her coun-
sel. The Court, with the grossest iuso-
lcnce, drove him from the case. Binr-
ham then had it all his own way. There
is now no doubt on the mind of any in
telligent person cognizant OF the facts,
that Mrs. Surratt was innocent. Her
murder is, We believe, the only profes.
sional feather in the cap of Bingham.
In the present trial be has tried to
match it with another worthy Of the
first The contrast between the charac
ters OF the counsel employed in the case
is significant Of the merits of the sides
they take in it.

Eyarts' speech are as remarkable a. its
acuteness of reasoning and elevation of
sentiment. The tone of the speech was
worthy of the occasion, and contlasted
strongly with the violent and abusive
harangues of Stevens aud Williams, %
which it succeeded. There has becn,
throughout, marked contrast between

states that Thomas Sunderland, Esq,

ginia city, is a candidate for United
States Senator, to succeed Senator
Stewart, in the event, Of course, that

have known Mr.. Sunderland since 1853,
and we can attest to his sterling quail
ties as a lawyer, a gentleman, and a
good citizen. We believe he has always
been q Democrat, but during the late
rebellion he was what was considered a
conservative politician, taking very lit
tie active part in politics. Ho has the
reputation of being one of the best law
