writs C Haseu. Corpus.

Some sort Of sanctity should attach to writs
of hd5eas corpus and certi0r0ri. The right
to personal liberty Is great right. Chartered
rights must not be ruthlessly trampled upon.
But in the matter of ha5eGs corpus there ia
being given In our courts altogether too wide
and extended an area. This is the present
great open sesame to criminals of every sort,
the key that unlocks prison doors, the tails
manic wand that transports from gloomy
dungeons to the glorious freedom of the sun
light and pure air and that more acceptable
freedom, freedom from onos prosecutors. The
last attempt to make writs of habe0s corpus
subservient of ends designed to defeat justice
showed itself yesterday before Judge Brady, of
the Supreme Court, in tho case Of the eighty
five low and abandoned wretches captured by
the police in their late raid upon the miserably
vile bagpios In Greenwich street. What is the
use In arresting such persons and imme-
diately turning them loose againp The law ia
clear as to the legality of such arrests: We
only wish that 1t was as clear to the police
authorities that it is their duty to follow up
these arrests and clean out every bagnio In the
city.
The New York herald., 1871-04-13

It Is worthy of notice that although the
dispatches from Versailles Of yesterdays date
report the cannonading about Paris as less
frequent, and state that nothing of Importance
had transpired, kilograms from the French
capital dated at noon yesterday, represent
the cannonading as incessant from FIVE o'clock
in the morning, and report severe fighting
before the forts on the south and In the Bois
de Boulogne. The Versailles dispatches
are quite BRIEF and 1t is possible
that there is an error In the date.
This alone can reconcile the discrepancy
between the two reports. That there was
fighting going on is very evident, as when
tho Paris dispatches left large numbers Of
wounded were arriving in the city from the
scene Of action, and the supposition was that
the losses were heavy. Besides, our previous
advices from Versailles stated that yester-
day desperate effort would be made by the
government forces to carry the positions held
BY the insurgents and tQ force an entrance into
Paris. Intelligence Of the result Of the con-
hicts will be awaited with deep interest, as II
must materially affect the military situation
for good or evil.
A conflict took place on Tuesday last be-
tween party Of Communists and the Prussians
At st. psnls, and although It soon ceased It is
not unlikely to get the Commune into serious
trouble. Doubtless, however, the insurgent
leaders will make every effort TO concilIate the
Germans, who, BY the way, have already
established battery at st. Denis, with its
guns pointing toward Paris. Unless this
conflict should change The present policy of
Bismarck there will be no interference by
in the domestic affairs Of France
until 1t shall become necessary for the collec-
tion Of the war indemnify.

Important from shc Mexican Frousfbst
BY telegram from Galveston we learn that
. train Of provisions passing from Chihuahus
for Fort Bacon was attacked by Indians and
seven Americans killed. The Chihuahus
troops pursued the maraudsEs across the from
tier Into the United States, and killed and
captured eighty Of them. Tho United States
troops at Fort Goodwin went to protect the
Indians and came In collision with the
Mexican soldiers. A fight ensued,, In
which tho commsnding ofacer st Fort
Goodwin and forty soldiers were killed.
We are ct loss TO- understand why
United States troops should protect
band Of murderous Indians; II appears rather
to have been their duty to aid in chastising
them. That the Mexican troops crossed tho
border under such circumstances can hardly
be considered violation Of our territory for
they were only In pursuit Of those who . few
hours before had taken the lives Of seven
Americans. We trust that the account OF the
affair has been exaggerated, for If not It may
lead to serious complications. The death OF
an ohicer and forty soldiers of the United
States in an afray with Mexican troops cannot
be passed over without q searching investiga-
ton In order 10 discover who was at fault.

NAPOLEON AND THE RETURNING SOLDIERS
or THE LATE fsRERIAL ARMY.-A Cologne
paper called the Echo states that the French
prisoners are leaving Germany at the rate of
one thousand per day, and that those only
who are known to be fayorable to the Yer
ssIllss government are allowed TO depart.
There srv some who viii interpret this as
favorable Sign for the restoration of Napoleon.
II ID jast q natural to conclude that the return
Of the late imperial soldiers will aid the cause
Of the republic or contribute TO the restoration
q the House Of Orleans.

A trial was commenced yesterday In the
Supreme Court, before Judge Sutherland,
which, it Is to be hoped, will determine the
extent Of freedom allowed to policemen In
using their clubs upon the heads Of prisoners
without making themselves amenabls for Pc
cuniary damages. As usual there has been
the proverbiat sIaw's delays" in this case. The
clubbing took place about six years ago, but
by those strategic devices known to the law
present case seems q. rather hard one. The
plaintiff, who resided In Westchester
county, according to his story, was
late in catching q train, and while
running towards tho Harlem depot was
stopped and held by person in citizens
clothes he had never seen before. He tried
to get away, when his captor shouted 'Police,"
and shortly sergeant and three policemen
had him in their clutches, beat him unmerci-
fully with their clubs, dragged him to the
station and thrust him, more dead than alive,
into cell in the Nineteenth precinct station
house, where he was kept over night. He
claims ten thousand dollars damages. The
defence Is the old, old one Of ''drunk and dis
orderly conduct" by the prisoner. II remains
to be seen, even If the charge of drunkenness
is proved, whether four policemen will be
held justi6able in using their combined clubs
upon the head of drunken man to effect his
secure lodgment In station house. This
clubbing business is being carried too far.
1t is crying evil. 1t is time it was stopped.
We are glad to know that case is under
going investigation before tribunal where
political influence does not weigh-where the
truth is likely to be elected and justice done.

A VERDICT has just been rendered in the
Supreme Court which, while it is likely to be
fruitful Of suggestive LESSONS to auctioneers,
viii doubtless be Of great future service to
those whom either misfortune or other causes
compel to have recourse to gentlemen Of the
red flag. A poor woman employed an auc-
tioneering firm to sell her furniture. The goods
were sold, and. instead Of two and half per
cent-the fees prescribed by statute-they
withheld about twenty per cent, giving her
the remainder. She BAD the pluck to bring
suit to recover the excessive charges, and
jury had the sense and justice to give them to
her. II others similarly victimised will do the
same upon this species Of swlndling, which Is

WALL STREET SPECULATION AND SHER-
MANS RESOLUTION The first effects OF the
resolution introduced by Senator Sherman,
proposing q repeal Of all taxes save those
necessary for the support Of the governments,
were Witnessed in Wall street yesterday,
where the speculative sentiment was rendered
buoyant in anticipation Of the sweeping aboli-
ton Of oil the petty annoyances which the
internal revenue system imposes upon the
business Of the street. The removal Of taxes
on capital, on deposits on interest, on
coupons, on stock certificates, on sales and Oh
all the vs:iou. items g! q wsIl street transac-.
tions, will go great way toward making the
wheels Of legitimate and speculative business
glide smoothly in that busy mart The Inn
portant point, however, is the vast stimulus
which the change will impart to trade In
general. The hundred millions taken yearly,
from the profits Of the people now will, whom
left with them, produce at least ten millions
annually and expand their capacity for pro-
ducng more and more, until In ten years
tho national debt will be only a 9@all fraction
Of the real wealth ooi ths county. fy--aas:aa's. :
