A GOVERSOR's RESIDENCE

1t was urged by an influential
member of the Legislature the other
day that no resolution fixing a day
for adjournment should be offered
or considered until sufficient mea-
sures for the maintenance and pro
lection of the credit of the State
were adopted. He referred par
ticularly to the inextricablc rail
road muddle. AllusiOn also, might
properly have been made TO many
other leakagcs in the treasury,
which deserve attention.
There is one proposition pending
before that body which has not
received the notice it deserves.
When expenditures and receipts
reach the dimensions Of millions,
smaller sums are regarded as minor
matters. In no other way can we
account for the Indifference mani
tested in regard to the valuable real
estate owned by the State, and
living within the limits Of the cor
poration of this city-the old
Lunatic Asylum grounds.
This is a valuable property and
now entirely unproductive. The
measure alluded to, proposes IT'S
subdivision into lots and sale for
the benefit Of the treasury. The
eligibility of the grounds for the
purpose, and the fact that they fur
nish from the walls Of enclosure
an ample supply of unsurpassed
building material, suggest that they
may be used in establishing a per
manent residence for the Governor
of the State. Not more than one
third of the ground is required Tor
the site of such a building; and the
stone as it stands is dressed for the
nurpose. The enhancement in
value of. the remainder of the land
bv such an improvement, would
finish and equip a gubernatorial
mansion without cost to the State,

At the conclusion Of the trial of
John II. SurraUC. IN November,
1867, Judge Fisher, then holding
the Criminal Court, ordered the
name of Joseph II. Bradley, ST.,
Esq, TO be stricken from the rolls
for alleged contempt. This action
was simply piece of Radical spleen
on the part of Judge Fisher, but the
Supreme Court Of the District of
Columbia confirmed the Judges
action. Bradley appealed to the
Supreme Court ofthe United States,
which on the 11th instant an
nOunced its decision that the Su-
promo Court Of the District is dis
tinct and separate from the Crimi-
nal Court of the District, though the
Criminal Court is held by one ofthe
Judges of the District Supreme
Court, and that the latter in at
tempting to punish for contempt
committed upon the Criminal Court
exceeded its jurisdiction. There
fore a pcremptOry mandamus was
ordered to the District Supreme
Court TO restore Mr.. Bradley to his
office of attorney. This is great
triumph for Mr.. Bradley.
