A Cheoquered Life.


This is the history Of Ann Ferret,
who has sat knitting in the Court
house at Syracuse, N. Y, for several
terms of the circuit Court. Seventy
years ago, she was born at Perth, in
Scotland When she was fifteen years
old she married q servant in her fa-
theirs house, and her parents discard
cd hor. Her husband abused and
abandoned her, and then she became
housekeeper to the Archbishop of
Tuam, and afterwards travelled
through Europe as maid to the widow
of Sir John Moore. She saved money,
married (her former husband being
dead) and came to this country thirty
years ago, bringing with her $4,000 in
gold. Her husband was a drunkard,
souandered all her money, and then
died. She worked hard, saved money
and built little cottage with her own
hands at Syracuse, where she lived
with her little son, the child Of her
second husband. After n while she
married again, but her life was made
unhappy by some meddliog women,
who caused trouble between man and
wife; part of her property was sold
on an execution against her husband,
procured by his connivancc. She
would live no longer with him but
went to work in her old way and soon
had several thousand dollars invested
in real estate. Her son was tcndcrly
attached to her, and when ono day
not long ago man insulted her he
knocked him down, and an action for
assault was brought against him.
She was told that it was very uncer-
tain when the trial would come on,
and so went every day to the court
house, where she sat knitting and
waiting, while her son was away at
work. On tho very day when the
case was called sho was taken i'll and
was unable to attend at court. Her
attorney knew nothing of her illness
her son was away, expecting to be
notified when wanted, and tho plain.
tiff carried his case. The poor old
lady is again plunged into trouble and
has got to that stage of life where al
she wants is to get her son and take
him away with her to her old home
in Scotland, ..r

ere, convicting him not only. of
double. dealing, but of gross usurpa-
tion Of power. 1t is stated that he
gave to one Luther Smith authority
to arrest citizen of Scott county on
aoharge of shooting another person..
Meantime, the Grand Jury of the
county met, and on invests CATION of
the case it failed: to find a truo bill
against Bailey. Subsequent to this
d,oision Of the grand Jury, and when
Bailey had been virtually acquitted
Of tho crime alleged against him, ho

sued to him by the acting Governor.
The Grand Jury at tho September
term, found true bill, as they we're
bound to do, against Smith for tho
killing of Bailey. The acting Cover
nor was thus n partner to the crime.
The murder Of an innocent man was
committed undor the shadow Of his
usurpcd authority.
But bad rs it was, his conduct in
this particular was not the worst part
OF it. On the eighteenth of j unc last
even before tho Grand Jury has in.

pardoned him, thus usurping the pre-.
rogativo of the judiciary before it
had acted upon the case Of tho mur-
dcror-prostituting tho pardoning
power-and violating tho constitution
which forbids either Of the three de-
partments to exercise tho functions

duplicity con- listed in tho fact that in

the prosecution Of Smith, he studi-

Independent Journalism.

Since the sad failure of Mr.. Gree
ley to secure quarters in the White
House, his late organs at the North
have assumed the role Of indcpcn
dent journals, and propose steering n
course i'll politics independent of par
ty organizations. We have Observed
of late much, too, in Southern news
papors about "indcpcudcnt journal
ISM" We admire independence in
everything, properly conceived, and
lcgitimately carried out, but when
perverted, it is simply contcmptiblo.
So far as independence in journalism
is concerned. it is difficult character
to sustain. OF course every outspo-
ken paper is independent to certain
extent, but it cannot be absol utely 50
No respectable journal in this country
can hold a position outside of the two
great political parties into which tn c
voting masses arc divided. Neutral
ground is untcnablc. The only issue
left to be agitatcd arc Kadlcalism and
Conservatism, aud upon the one side
or tic other must every h,ncst jour.
nalist take stand. Tucrc is no
"fonce' now to sit on, every man must
show his hand, or be viewed with dis.
trust by discriminating and intclli

anything like party scrvili,y, aid
that spirit that influences man to
act contrary to his convictions. But
every journal, conducted npon correct
principles, should hold itself amcna. .

by "mdcpendont journllism," in its
true signification. We always like to
soc journalist hold to a dcciacd@ @pin-
ion on every subject. It's the true
test of his independence. A man that
hasn't an opinion of his own, is mere.
