THAT MORAL JURYMAN.-Mr. Jones, the
uneonseionable who assumed the name of
Louis Hartman, is likely to gain little
leisure. Mr.. Hartman, an elderly man, was
up before Judge Abel, yesterday, and
questioned concerning his knowledge of the
affair. His statement is, that when drawn
as juror, he was not inclined to leave his
business, preferring to let justice take care
OF herself without his assistance. He fur
Their AYERS that on expressing his dislike to
serve, one P. j. Hussey, who said he was
deputy sheriff, told him that the annoyance
could be avoided by putting another man
in his place, and. Jones was found ready.
The court in part accepted these statements,
and ordered the arrest of Hussey. He will
be arraigned to-day, face to face with his
accuser. If the proof be sufficient to con-
vict him, his punishment will not be such as
most men wish for.

why an Editor Retired.

It will be remembered q change lyas Ell
fected short time ago in the editorial de,
partment of the Ohio journal, under which
Mr.. J. Q. Howard retired trom the con-
cern. The secret history Of this transac-
ton has Just leaked ont, and it is proper
that recite it here, IN I. as 1t has
political significance.
1t was known at Wa s.,. .lon that the
controlling interest IN the establishment is
IN the hands of DR.. S. NJ. Smith and Gene
raj J. NJ. Comfy, his son-in-law, who is the
Columbus Postmaster, and it was observed
IN Administration circles at the national
capital, that many Of the editorials IN the
Journal had running through them q spirit
of independence altogether inconsistent
with the supposition they were written or
supervised by afederal Office holder This
naturally led to inquiry. By the way, it
is asserted that Mr.. B. r. Cowan, who has
just been appointed and confirmed Assist
ant Secretary of the Interior under Delano,
first called attention to the course Of the
Journal, suggested the inquiry, and fur
nished the information which it called for
1t was soon ascertained that the writer Of
the Objectionable utterances was Mr.. How
ard, who was longer in Office but who was
one of the editors Of the Journal. The
Postmaster editor was thereon informed
that "Mr. Howard must be toned down or
retired, else the post-ofice would have to
be surrendered" The latter proposition
could not be entertained for one moment,
as it had cost extraordinary effort to Sc
cure Comly's appointment, and the Office
is fat one. It became necessary TO look
after Mr.. Howard, and as he wouldn't
''tone" worth AGENT, he was retired. Since
his retirement the Journal has displayed
all the serviency demanded by President
| Grant and the instruments that are en-
gineering the San Domingo job, and his
political interests, with view 10 securing
his denomination.

FROM the following in the New York
Tribune, Of May 6th, the fact appears to
be settled that Greeley Is forninst Grant
for the Presidency:
"Since the Tribune is charged with con
cealed unfriendhness' to ,President Grant
it is clear that we need not defend it from
any possible imputation Of servility or sy-
cophancy And II is certain that We are
not seeking the reelection OF General
Grant as President. Should be be the
Republican candidate. we should of course
supporthim 10 the best Of our ability but
pending the nomination, we may be fairly
charged with sunfE1endlines' to running
him or any other man for President while
he wields the vast patronage Of thai high
Office. We ardently desire to see thepria-
ciple established that President shall
have no aspirations except to- serve the
country eminently and win thereby a
lasting and enviable renown. So much
for the 'unfriendliness - but how Is to the
'concealedT Wehave talked in this fashion
to all who would hear as for months: we
should have written it ere now live had
not been anxious to postpone all discus
sion regarding the next Presidency till
next wintef.-Be it understood, then, now
and evermcre, that what the Springfield
Republican terms our -unfriendiness' tc
General Grant is, at all events, not con-
cealed =" .-fr ' r5

The FORMER Home Of Jen Davis.

A Chicago gentleman who recently accompanied
Jefferson Davis on a visit to the plantations In
Mississippi formerly owned by Joseph E Davis,
now deceased, writes: These Plantations were
sold by Mr.. Joseph E. Davis, who owned them
both, TO his faverite Freedman, Ben Montgomery,
for $4,000, payable at the end Of ten years list
of January, 1851 interest at six per cent payable
annually. Ben, who is very black, but thoroughly
educated before the war, met us and gave US =
breakfast, waiting on the table himself but not
offering to take a seat After breakfast We had q
carriage and rode over the magnificent estate, the
extent of which you can form some idea, when
tell you that Ben Montgomery made last year 500
bales Of cotton, and alarge quantity Of corn. We
dined at Briarheld, the former residence Of jeer-
son Davis and now occupied as residence by the
aforesaid Ben, and you viii not be surprised to
learn that the former slaves Of Mr.. Davis greeted
him with all the warmth Of affection that they were
capable Of expressing. Mr.. ID. met them cordially
and encouraged them by many kind words. After
dinner, at which cur wealthy host again waited on
us in elegant style, we passed on to very large
and valuable plantation which has been purchased
by Ben Montgomery and added to the Davis es-
tate and which will add 70 his crop this year
probably 1000 bales more, making $500 in ALL II II
Is good crop year. ~

The Attorney General and Ihe Inter.
mai Revenue Tax.

In being overruled as he has been by
the Attorney General on the subject Of the
business of the imposition Of the revenue
tax for the closing FIVE months of 1870,
General Pleasanton should take comfort
rather than indulge regret. Nothing, to
our mind, SO we'll proves the very reverse
of the decision to be true as its origin from
this source. Mr.. Akerman, as the COM
placent friend of the Secretary of the
Treasury, is ready to back him up at all
times with aan opinion as is an opinion" +"
He is worse even than poor Bunsby IN the
matter of giving advice. for. the ancient
mariner did not muddle the situation if he
did not clear it up. But Mr.. Akerman's
opinion is clearly against the facts. In
reality, there was no opinion needed. Ten
thousand Attorneys General can never
make it fact that there is any Cougressi-
onal enactment providing for the collec-
ton of an income tax upon moneys re-
celved during the interval between the lst
of August and the 3lst of December in the
year Of our Lord one thousand eight hnn-
dred and seventy. Mr. Akerman has on

made IN the case Of the Pacific Railroad

In North Carolina the other day. a fed
eral marshal, with a regiment Of Federal
troops, calamity sailed forth and heroieally
captured sixteen persons, whom some one
had accused of completely in ..Ku-Klux"

lying breed who manufactured outrages to
order for the New York 7Fi6lsnel is COM
PEELED to state that ''no show Of resistance
was made" that the sixteen were well
known men of considerable property" and
that eethe general impression is that the
arrests might as easily have been made
without troops" Such is the contempti-
bic revelation Of the miserable pretext
upon which the Congress Of the United
States has assumed to clothe Ulysses Grant
with the absolute powers Of military
dictator.

The Reverdy johnson and the Grant
Treaties. frr

The St. Louis Republican thus contrasts
the Grant with the Reverdy johnson
Treaty, which was unanimously rejected
by the Senate of the United States
"But in forming an opinion upon this
the vital point of the Treaty Of Washing
ton, let the people bear in mind that after
all the buster and braggadocio, in and
out of Congress, the Administration,
through its High Commissioners. has vir-
tually accepted the main feature of the
Reyerdy johnson treaty. That much
abused document, out of which the Radi-
cal party contrived to make deal of capi-
tai, provided that the Alabama claims
should be referred to four Commissioners,
two to be appointed by each Government /;
and then, if there was not unanimous
decision, the matter should be left 70 the
Judgment of some friendly power. John
son was denounced and his treaty rejected
because it proposed this sensible and per-
fectly honest solution of the problem.
we must said Sumner and the rest OF
the intensely belhgerent and patriotic Rad
icals, dictate our own terms and force
England to settle the Alabama bill accord
ing TO our figures What we have really
got now is authority for the President Of
the United States to appoint one out OF
fire arbitrators, and one out of three asses
sors, and from this arbitration and assess
ment there is no appeal. The despised
and defeated johnson treaty IS, IN this re-
spect at least. better than the one now be-
fore the Senate"

at the present term of the Ashtabula
county Common Pleas Court, the case Of
Strineer against the Ene Railroad Com
pany was tried. The action was brought
by the Plaintiff TO recover damages for be-
ing put off of the defendants tram between
Mansfield and Ashland, for refusing to pay
the price of a ticket, to the conductor
The plaintiff claimed that he rendered the
fare which the company had repeatedly
received from him and the public generally,
between the towns above named, without
objection. He, also proved that the ticket
Office at Mansfield was not open for the
sale of tickets,-that the ticket agent was
asleep and he was unable for that reason,
to purchase ticket, although he attempt
ed and desired TO obtain one. He was put
off the train amidst the taunts and insults
of the railroad employees, who with mock
politeness bade him good bye, and wished
him pleasant journey, as they landed
him in deep cut of the road.
The trial of the case occupied about 8
week. The court charged the jury, that
under the recent decision of our Supreme
Court they Were authorized and permitted
when the circumstances justified, to give
exemplary damages by way of smart mon
ey and punishment, against Railroad
Company for the insult, wantonness anc
malicious conduct Of their agents, and thai
it was their duty in estimating the plain
tiffs damages, to take into consideration
his wounded feelings, and the eircum
stances of indignity and publicity attend
| ing the whole transaction.
The jury retired and soon returned witt
a verdict of eighteen hundred dollars il
favor of the plaintiff This was the secont
trial. The first verdict was eight huHdre,
dollars. The case was argued by Diekey
i of Mansfield, and McSweeney, of Wooster
for plaintiff, and by Estep. of Cleveland
and Watson, of Mansfield, for the Ralroa,

IT now turns out that the so-called
Ku-Klnx arrested in Roteson county,
North Carolina, were led by three negroes
named Lowery. Applewhite and Strong.
We need not expect to hear anything fur
ther Of their prosecution under the Ku-
Klux bill, as that would be obstructing
the colored man in the exercise OF his
rights, When this Ku-Klux matter is
sifted to the bottom, 1t will be found that
all the depredations are committed by a
small class of outlaws, the half Of whom
are negroes. and the balance are white
