1econd bearing of a great SANDER
suit came 70 close in Cleveland last
week, resulting in verdict of seven

jewelr5 house. The latter inspired by
business jealousies, had permitted him
self to utter charges rejecting injuri-
ously on the character of the lady.
On the first trial Of the case the jury
awarded a verdict of $1,000 damages.
On the hearing, Judge Ranhey, one of
Mlss BeDton's attorneys, was cut off
from an opportunity to make a speech
fhe defendants counsel declining to
reply to the opening argument against
their client. Notwithstanding this,
Wade was not satisfied with the yer
dict and demanded 4 new trial This
he got, and with it came an opportu-
nifty to Judge Ranney, TO be heard.
BE spoke eleven hours, and the Cleve
land papers say the court room was

GRANT AND SUMNER.

NHhEANA nv OOhEN En-.
Grant and his friends are making
determined efforts to get Sumner,
Schurz and Patterson off from the
committee on Foreign Relations =
The President is AFRAID of these gen
tlemen, and wants to render them
powerlcss to block his San Dom ngo
job. AS to the effect of the proposed
move, a Washington. special says:
1t will likely result IN a permanent
division in the Republican party in
the Senate There are certain Sena-
tors who regard the attempt to de-
grade Sumner as a gross outrage, and
will resent it, independent of their
relations to-the ADMINISTRATION"
THE SAN DOMINGO TREATY.
The fact has come to light that
early in 1869 the commander of the
United States steamer Nipsic, then
at Port au Prince, was directed by the
Secretary of the Navy, at the request
of the President, to make a thorough
investigation as t. the condition of
San Domingo, politically, financially
and otherwise, with a view to negotia-
ting a treaty to purchase that u
try. This officer Commander Sci
fridge carried out his instructions
fully, and made a long written report
to the President, giving all the facts
that came under his observation, and
concluded BY expressing, in his judg-
ment, that the purchase of San Do.

be- constant and serious trouble tn
this country and in no respect advisa
BILE. This report was lever allowed
to see the light, but was quickly sup
pressed by the officials in whose hands
it was, Tor fear that it would prove
disastrous to the annexation scheme.
NEW STATES.
There is a probability that two new
States will be admitted during the
present Congress. Senator Nye has
introduced a bill to admit Colorado,
and The House committee on Terrific
ries has agreed TO make a State Of
New Mexico, under the name of Lin
coin. Colorado came within a few
votes of beng admitted some years
ago, and at that time elected United
States Senators, who came here anC
waited for weeks in expectation o
getting their seats.
BOUTWELL, RETICENT.
On the subject of the quarrel be-
tween Grant and Sumner, Boutwell,
was very reticent, but when Sumner
was compliInented as a consistent man
Boutwell, emphatically assented Al
Boutwell, is not supposed tobe in jobs
it is believed his real sympathies are
with Sumner in opposition to thu
San Domingo job, and if compelled tc
take sides between Simmer and Grant
he win quite the Cabinet. 1t is SAID
that all the Massachusetts politicians
will finally have to take sides one way
or the other. Banks is personally
bitter, against Grant, but has always
been for the annexation policy. But,
Ter is committed soILe way, but Sum.
ner is SO strong with the unbought

ron PREACH and comments at some
length upon our having joined the
Dent movement aud charges that
il was a radical movement, which
the Central gives as a reason for not
going with US then, and uses in the
same article the following language:
"nor do wewish Ii to be under stood
that we will affiliate with You in
any radical enterprise or position
against the conservative interest of
a tax ridden people; symply because
il may be called Democracy"
We would ask our friend of the
Central who constituted this Dent
party vast not that "Tax ridden
people, that you profess 80 much
love for2 Whence came such
wisdom! that says to that tax ridden
people, the Dent party, you do not
know your own interest, all your Of
forts for success in the Dent move
ment are against your interest, and
We cannot help you've hold back
but for your good. This is all radi-
calism and you cannot sec it, but ne
can-you profess not to care what
name you assume and will expose
radicalism under any name, and at
tho same time, constantly urging
a change Of name. Why urge the
change of a name that is not objcc-
uonablc to you? IT you think there
isnothing in a name, why not tell
your readers 50, and ask them to lay
aside all suchsilly p~rejudices? Did
not our friend Of the Central know
VIC care nought for the name of wing
or democrat :? Did he not know
that one Of the editors and propric-
of the STAR was the son of an old
line wing, and the other the son Of
a democrat! But being too young
before the wal to take part in politi-
cal matters, we have none of that
prejudice that old politicians may
have. We look to what Is present
before us, and support that party
that in our judgement will best pro-
mote the interest Of the State.
But we do not think like our
friend OF the Central, that the
conservative party OF the State
needs any great recognizing or rev.
authorizing ~ to a name, or to
throw away all and make Il new
party. Our friend, have you ever
read Jack Downing's letter to Gene
eral Jacksonl DO you remember a
certain letter, where he speaks of
the General going into a tailor shop
to have q button sewcd on his
pants, and the tailor refused to sew
on the button, the general rcmon.

pants, tit well, wore easy on him, and

sew on the button, and insisted on
making u new pairg Our friend do
you not feel a little like the tailor ?
you only want to destroy the old
pants that you may make new ones.
We think the pants will do yet, and
If we can get the few broken Of

right, and there will be no necessity
