Tho cn,s Of nudge Harrison.

To he Editors Of ne AVttEIgtnetr:
The extraordinary efforts that are being
made 10 prejudice Judge Harrison with
members Of the Legislature, By whom he
Is 10 be tried, demands passing notice.
It Is claimed in the ISTELIIdRSCER
that as he Is sure Of q fur trial in body
containing a majority Of his political
friends he ought TO waive the notice re.
Quired by the Constitution and demand an
immediate trial.
AEter the extraordinary efforts that
have been made by the press Of the city,
and the crowd Of personal enemies that
are here from Grecnbrier and Monroe to
prejudice the minds Of his judges against
him, he docs not believe he will have
fair trial.
Amongst the charges against Judge
Harrison there Is one that he required ju-
dlcial notice to be published in the Mon
roc County Republican. And yet the law
makes It the duty ofthe Court TO make an
order designating the paper in which judi
clal notices Of causes pending in his Court
shall be published. / presume every Cir
cult Judge in the State has made Just such
an order And this frivolous and absurd
charge Is graVely Endorsed by q majority
Of both branches Of the Legislature, for
which they propose to remove him from
office.
This Is an Indication of the fairness and
impartiality which he has a right to eX-
pect at the hands Of this Legislature
All the other charges against him are,
when stripped Of their denunciatory
verbiagc, equally frivolous or false in fact.
The truth Is that the Republican members
ofthe Legislature seem to be paralyzed by
the violence and vehemence Of the denun.
Citations Of his personal and political enc.
mics.
Whilst certainly do not suppose that
any member of the Legislature desires to
do Judge Harrison any injustice, II Is GER
tain that their action thus far indicates a
feeling which Is not favorable to fair
and impartial consideration Of his case.
As we are advised and believe, the only
favor which Judge Harrison asks Of the
Legislature Is that they will pass the bill
now pending, repeating the law requiring
the Governor to fill vacant judgships for
the balance Of the unexpired term. II
they will do this, we are informed that,
whatever may be the result Of this pro-
ceeding, he will send to the Governor his
resignation, to take etfecton the 1st day
Of January next, be candidate for re.elcc.

own judges. They are the only proper
Judges Of the character and fitness Of those
who hold Office by their election.

Murder in Clay County.

We learn that cattle dealer from Tay.
lor county, in this State, whose name we
have not been able to learn, was muir.
dercd on Elk river, in Clay county, about
two weeks ago, by man named Pearson.
Tho fhcts, as We learn them, arc as follows:
It seems that the dealer was riding
alone, when he was shot from the bushes.
The shot not proving fatal, the assassin
completed his bloody work by beating his
victim to death with o club. He then
proceeded to rifle lis pockets, when a
party ofhunters, attracted TO the spot by
the report Of tho gun, came upon him, and
arrested him just as he was ~ the act Of
securing about two thousand dollars In
currency. There being no Jail in Clay
county, tho murderer was taken to
Charleston and confined in Jail, 5g
This Is one of the most cold.bloodcd
murders that we have ever been called
upon to record, and retrfbutive Justice,
swim and terrible, should avcnge the
death of the unfortunate victim.-Le 'ris.

AN EASTERN TALE.-A certain Rabbi
had two sons, whom both he and his wife
tenderly loved.
Duty obliged the Rabbi to take jour
ney to distant country during his abb
sence his:twe promising boy sickened and
died.
The grief-stricken mother laid them out
on their bed, drew the curtain, and waited
anxiously for her husband.
He came-it was night.
SLOW are my boys p was his first
question. "Let me see them"
''Stay awhile" said bis wife; II am in
great trouble, and / want your advice.
Some years ago friend lent me some
jewels. took great care of them, and at
last began to prize them as my own.
Since your departure my friend has called
for them, but l did not like to part with
them. Shall give them up?"
"Wife what strange request is this ?
Give them up, and that instantly, this
very night Show me the jewels"
She took the Rabbi to their bed, drew
wide the curtain, and said, Husband,
there are our jewels ~

endowed with the most brilliant and var,

all those qualities that win the admiration

tons which form the passport to the high

and university honors-the author of the
"School for Scandal rose by the mere
force of his genius, and rose almost at q
bound, to the highest position in the ranks
of Political and social life, at a period
when political and social life in England
was tainted by the narrowest and most
exclusive spirit that has ever distinguish.
ed the aristocraey of that country. He
held that position and held it with eclat,
all through a long life, the rival Of wits
like Coleman and Horne Tooks; of orators
and statesmen like Pitt, and Fox, and

many victories, by great failures and
great successes and yet now, when one
asks what remains Of oil this success, it is
not easy to frame an answer. A speech
or two, which no one now thinks of read

what he thinks the false taste of the age
in eloquence and wit; the feeting recol-

that remain to mark the genius of the

talk. The Tribune, like all others, sees
an extensive system of National, State

There is plant or weed known as tea

in France and England aud used by the
manufacturers Of cloth, who employ the
crooked burs of the heads for raising the

the teasel burs are fixed round the peri

which the cloth is held while the machine
is turned. There are male and female
teasels; the former being used for stock

are used on the finer goods. Teasels are
Of two kinds--tEe cultivated aud the wild.
The latter hike other tlistIes are to be

When the Tariff bill was reported by

were included in the free list. Mr. Dennis

who represents the 0noRdaga salt district

the bill by taxing teasels 10 cents per
pound. Five acres Of ground will pros

stimulus needed is that furnished by
