An Omission.

The Iowa City State Press, calls
our attention to, and asks us to de-
nounce an alleged refusal OF Judge
Tannehill TO allow q colored citizen
to sit as juror in the District Court
for Wapsllo county recently. 1t our
cotemporary had given the facts
defnitely-the date Of tho alleged
occurance, name of the excluded
juror, &c.-we might be able to COM
ply with the request ma le. Nothing
would please ns better than to hold
up to public scorn the man who, oc-
cupying an official station in Iowa in
this year of grace, could dare to pay
tribute to Caste and insult a citizen
because guilty only of a colored skin.
Nor would our words be less earnest,
but rather the more severe, if the
offender were q Republican. Will
the State Press please supply its omis-
sion and give the facts ?-Darenport
Gazette.
So long as this baseless calumny
was confined to the Copperhead press
Of the State, we deemed it unworthy
of notice.
But lest the Gazette should open
its yials Of righteous indignation, on
the head of one oft best, and pu-
rest, and ablest. and most radical
judges in Iowa, on the testimony Of
the Iowa City Press and kindred
sheets, we make haste to say that the
cock and bull story which has go stir.
red up it's blood, is totally destitute
Of the semblance Of truth, as we have
il from leading and honorable citizene
who were in the Court House at the
time tho alleged outrage should have
occurred. s
Will the Gazette please suspend the
operation OF holding up Judge Tame
| hill "to public scorn' and contempt
on the trumped up charges, of the
malevolent Copperhead press o.
