in the Mordaunt divorce case in London on
Wednesday, the Prince OF Wales some OF whose
letters to Lady Morlaunt have been published,
was called to the stand Lord Penseance pointed
ont that no witness was bound 10 make TO any
question an answer which would admit that he
had been guilty OF adultery. The Prince testified
that he was acquainted with Lady Aordaunt pre-
vious to her marriage; made her wedding pres
ent Before the marriage she visited the Princess
at Marlborough House. She had visited the thea.
tire in company with the Prince and Princess. He
saw her after in 1865 and 1857. He had frequently
met Sir Charles with Lady Mordaunt. In June,
1867, he met Sir Charles at a pigeon match, on
which occasion Lady Mordaunt scored for both
sides, and he spoke to her In the course OF the
match The Prince admitted that he occasionally
used hanson cabs. He solemnly asserted that
there had never been any improper or criminal
intention between himself and Lady Mordaunt.
The declaration was received by great crowd oil
spectators with cheers, which the court endeavor,
ed to repress, but which were renewed. The
Bench expressed much loyal Indignation at the
publication by public journals Of the letters OF the
Priuce TO Lady MOrdaunt.

American Judges,

The Saturday Reoiem has an article OF
grave significance in relation to the dcpre-
citation of the American judiciary. Once
Kent and Story and Harper were quoted in
England, as Coke and Mansfield are quoted
Oh this side of the water. The fact that our
judges have a larger sphere than those Of
Europe, having right (vainly claimed else
where to found their decisions upon the
constitution rather than upon the laws, gives
them direct influence on the legislation of
the country, and an immense political au-
thority. Even ardent partisans, like Mar
shall and Taney, were steadied by the re-
sponsibilities of so great charge, and pre-
sided at court with admirable Justice and
dignity. They made the Supreme Court in
many respects, as the Saturday Rectew ad-
mits, 'the most august tribunal in the world. I"
But we are told that all this is changed
now. The English judges shrink from re-
cognizing the authority of modern American
cases. The judicial Office is losing its sane
tity; many of the judges, particularly in New
York, are corrupt or incompetent; many OF
the most skilful and honorable practitioners
consider it their chief duty to their clients to
keep their business out Of court; lawyers
admitted to the bar, without adequate pre-
paration, fail to exercise just professional
influence over the bench; and finally Con-
gress degradcs the office by making it, as in
the case Of Mr.. Stanton, the reward Of bitter
partisanship Such are the grave allega-
tions urged against the American judiciary,
and which, while somewhat exaggerated,
have truth enough in them to make the mod
ern decisions of our courts contemplate be-
fore the tribunals of England, and to lower
the bench in the estimation OF the people Of
the United States.
What Judge ought to be we know very
we'll; for we have had many lignitary-
and some still linger among uS-who has
borne that great Office long and worthily.
We can recall many venerable name to
whom the law OF reason and the law of the
land were inviolable principles, and to whom
respect Of persons was unknown, many
judge, thoughtful, acute, conscientious, in
the trial of cases, and devoted in hoary age
to the study of the laws with more than the
enthusiasm, if that were possible. which
characterized his eager, aspiring YOUTH

proach with menace or bribe; who rose

man; who never dreamed OF personal ad-
vantage when he ministered, robed and
consecrated high priest, in the temple OF JUS
tice. One had but to he in the presence OF
these men to feel that they were consciously
charged with the interests Of human soci-
ETY., and were bound to fidelity by solemn
and heartfelt oaths of office; that they were
q great power in the State, and could not
abuse the public confidence and the private
right confded to their keeping; that they
were the vicegerents of that high authority
by which kings reign and and princes decree
Justice When these great lawyers wore the
ermine, American jurisprudence was re-
nowned the world over. De Tocquevllle
praised it. Brougham copied it. Foreign
lawyers quoted it. Foreign judges attended
to it. 1t furnished precedents to tribunals,
suggestions to cabinets, contributions AT
once to the order and to the progress ol
modern civilization.
All this is changing now-thanks to Radi-
calism. To an American, the causes are
clearer than they are to the Saturday Re
vteper. They are mainly two. First. The
election ofjudges by the people, and for limited
terms of office. This policy is fatal to judicial
integrity. An official who is elected for party
services, and who must continue to serve the
party in office, is apt not to have the quail
fications of judge, and is perpetually
tempted to abuse the functions OF his Office.
AS politician, he followed expcdiency as
his law; why should he follow any other as
u Judge? politician, he bribed for office;
why should he not repay his losses by taking
bribes as judge? AS politician, he allied
himself with the strong; why should he de-
fend the rights of the weak as Judge? We
do not say that demagogue may not make
good Judge, but the probabilities are
against 80 wonderful transformations We
do say, however, that many demagogueS
will not make many good judges. And the
tendency of popular elections OF judges is
to ill the bench with demagogues.
In the second place, the Radicallsm OF
Congress has done more than Radicalism
among the people, to degrade the judicial
office The Supreme Court, to which the
constitutional rights of the States and the
people have been ccnfded, now finds its lib
erty of action restricted and even endan-
gered. Of late, the number of judicial dis
tricts has been lessened or increased for
purely partisan purposes Acts have been
passed forbidding certain decisions, in re-
gard to laws VIGOROUSLY unconstitutional.
The judges have been threatened with i'm
parchment or suppression. Men pledged
beforehand to certain political course have
been thrust into that great office. The court
has been so badgered as to consent TO with
hold its decisions in certain cases, as in that
regarding military commissions in time OF
peace, until Congress should have passed e.r
post Jacto laws upon the subject. No won-
der that such measures are beginning to tell
upon the authority of the judiciary. OF
what earthly value will their decisions be
when Radicalism has completed its work,
and has made the American bench mere
party platform!

The City Council and the Fire Depart
ment.

The hot haste with which the City Coun-
Gil, at one session, introduced and read three
times an important Ordinance for the regu-
lation Of the Fire Department, was not war
ranted by any public necessity, and smacks
over-much of a determination to decide the
question before an opportunity was had OF
remonstrance or amendment.
1t is admitted, to begin with, that thirty
thousand dollars is enough to spend upon
the Charleston Fire Department, and it is
admitted, also, that the colored fire compa-
nies must receive the same pay as white
companies of the same class; but it is sus-
piciously strange that the pay OF the compa'
neS should have been changed, and their
number limited, without word OF warning
or explanation. The custom has been, in all
matters connected with the department. to
confer with the Board OF Firemasters, with
the chief and assistant-chiefs Of the Fire
Department, and with the committees of
Council who have the Fire Department in
special care No law forced the Mayor and
Aldermen to do these things; but proper
consideration for the public interests, and
laudable desire to act knowingly and delibe-
ntely, caused all preceding administrations
to consult the experts of the department,
and those familiar with its operations, be-
fore they made any grave or trifllnS change
in its management or organization. In the
present instance, however, the Council has
taken leap in the dark. The chief OF the
departments, and the Board Of Firemasters,
knew nothing of the new Ordinance until it
appeared yesterday in the public prints, and
the chairman of the Aldermanic committee
on the Fire Department said, in Council that
he had not been advised of its preparation
or intended passage. If we are correctly in
formed, the Ordinance was concocted in
caucus, and was rushed through Council in
defiance of the wishes of the minority, who
wanted time for inquiry and reflection.
We have already said that thirty thousand
dollars is enough to spend in one year upon
the Fire Department; but this fact does not
excuse the Incorporate conduct OF the City
Council. Did they inform themselves whether
$500 year for the steamers and $500
year for the hand engines would, with the
closest economy, keep the engines and appa-
ratus in order, and pay for the necessary at
tendance? Did they inquire whether the
difference between the cost Of maintaining
steamer and q hand engine is not far
greater than the difference between the $500
proposed to be given the one, and the $500
to be given the other? Did they ask whether
any companies are willing to serve the city
without pay or rewards Did they, in feet,
90 over the whole ground, and determine
whether it was better to reduce the annual
pay than to reduce the number OF companies
in the department?
Unless City Council did these things, we
say unhesitatingly that their action on Tues
day night was premature and wrong, and
was an act Of gross injustice 10 every fire
man in Charleston.
