vindicaiiou of Mr.. stanton

In the October number of the Atlantic
Monthly, Hon. Henry Wilson, in an article of
dozen pages, replies to Judge Blacks vitu-
perative letter which appeared few months
ago in the Galaxy, in regard to the course of
the late Edwin M. Stanton in the dark days
of 1869 and 1861. Mr.. Wilson devotes very
little space to Mr.. Black personally, but occu-
dies himself with sustaining the statements
he had made as to Mr.. Stanton by the testl-
mony of competent and trustworthy witness
es Mr.. Seward writes that while he was pro-
spective member Of Mr.. Lincoln's cabinet
and Mr.. Stanton was Mr. Buchanan's attor
ney-general, they were in constant confden-
tial communication and that he received from
day to day important suggestions and infor-
nation from Mr.. Stanton. Mr.. Sumner writes
graphic and impressive account of the mid
night interview at his own house, when Mr..
Stanton, who came at that hour to escape the
surveillance of the rebel agents, described the
plans OF the traitors which had come to his
knowledge. Hon. William A. Howard of
Michigan, who was chairman of a special
House committee appointed in 1861, to inves-
tigate the plots of the rebels in and out of the
government, writes to the effect that Mr..
Stanton was the author of the resolutions
creating the committee, that he was in secret
communication with them from day to day,
and furnished "the most startling facts" Mr..
Dawes, another member of the same commit
tee, gives still more explicit evidence to the
same general effect. So Mr.. Wilson goes on,
bringing forward the confederation of one dis
tingulshed man after another to the assertions
he has made, and weaving chain of evidence
which even Mr.. Black will be likely to consid
er unquestionabie. But we suspect that Mr..
Blacks object, in his own article, was rather
to assail ineeniously the memory of Mr.. STAN
ton, for whom. like most politicians of his kid
ney, he bears peculiar spite, than to contro-
vert Mr.. Wilson's assertions; so we dare say
he will be quite willing to let the matter rest
as it now stands.

The HALLowELL MURDER.-We shall
now see whether the precedent established by
the Sckles case, which has never been
overruled by any verdict since rem
dsred in this country, will be &C.
cepted by Maine court and a Maine jury
Since that trial it has uniformly been held
that man may XIII the person whom he sus-
poets of seducing his wife or of maintaining
improper relations with her. The history of
the Cole-Hiscock case and the still more ia
nous Richardson-McFarland case will show
that we do not state the principle too broadly.
1t is true that to soften its harshness juries
always fild.the respondent insane. but that
mas become merely an established legal fic-
ton, like Doe and Roe and the PLAINTIFFS allie
cation in trover that he lost the propcrtv
which the defendant found. If it erentbar-
wise the persons acquitted would be shut nm
in lunatic asylums instead of being permitted
10 go at large with their strong homicidal
tendencies threatening the lives of their fe!-
low citizens.
We trust that Maine will become entitled to
the credit of breaking down this most
dangerous and irrational practice. A
revengeful and unprincipled person may
Otherwise rightfully conclude that it is
a perfectly safe transaction to shoot an
enemy, only taking care to make the usual
defence. The Hallowell case seems to be one
of the most aggravated description, the muir
derer of Latin and the wouldbe murderer of
MS wife appearing to have no occasion for
jealousy We trust that Attorney General
Reed and county-attorney Whitehouse. who
are TWO very able lawyers, will do their ut
most 10 bring the offender to Justice.

The following account of the debuts of Nils.
son and Cary at Steinway Hall, New York, on
Monday evening last is taken from the N. Y.
Tribune.
1t is not difficult, even after a single hearing
to pronounce upon the secret of Mile. NiIs-
sons success She is young, she is charming
in her ways, and she has one of the most ex-
quisitey lovely voices ever given to a woman.
1t is voice altogether exceptional. Its puri-
ty is perfect; its quality is without flaw; its
evenness, from the lowest tones of the soprano
register even to those empyrean heights which
CarlOtta Patti glOres in scaling, has no par
allel within our existence. There is not a
harsh, nor shrill, nor husky note in its
whole range. All is exquisilely sweet, all is
fresh and beautiful as the singers own face
Her transitions from the upper to- the lower
register are not always perfectly managed, and
as mere vocalist she is certainly surpassed
by many singers who have visited this coun-
try; but there can be no question that she is
an artist OF very high accomplishments and al
most unlimited capabilities.
We must defer to another day more ade-
quate notice of the other artists who compose
Mile Missions company. Next to the prima
donna herself, the artst whose appearance at
tracted most interest last mig hit was Miss An
ME Louise Cary, the contraltO. She is a Bes-
ton young lady, who has spent some years in
Europe, studying under good masters, and
singing with marked success in London, where
she was engaged with Nilsson at the Royal
Italian Opera. She has an admirable voice,
full deep, round, and mellow-a voice like that
OF Adelaide Phillips, with great deal of that
peculiarly sweet and touching quality which
seems to belong more or less to all American
girls who have any voice at all. She has been
trained in an excellent school, and is likely to
prove credit to her country. She sang last
night the Ahi Quel Giorno from "Semiramide."
and took part in the Gratias Agimus trio from
Rossini's Mass
The New York and Boston papers insist that
Miss Cary is a Boston girl. Well if they are
so hard up for good singers that they must
claim those belonging to Maine we can only
pity them.

No RACE.-From the number of trotting
horses that our correspondent reports among
the arrivals at the State Fair, it is reasonable
to suppose that the following report made by
humorist on the occasion Of "pure agri-
cultural horse trot" will be applicable on the
present occasion: "There was no horse race
at the convention, but there were two COM
petitive examinations of horses in which run
ming horses competed with each other, and
trotting horses competed with each other, and
$500 was given to the best runner and to the
best trOtter."
