BRIGHAM YOUNG has been set at
liberty all proceedings against himself
and his fellow criminals having been set
aside by the United States Supreme
Court. The prosecutions were under
taken upon the supposition that the
District Courts Of the Territories are Uni.
ted States Courts. The Supreme Court
bas now decided that the Judge had no
right TO exclude polygamists from juries,
or TO interfere in any manner with the
local laws bearing on the subject, AS q
result, Brigham Young is once more at
the head Of affairs, and may 60 on
marrying and giving in marriage as long
rs the materials bold out. What policy
will be adopted by the Government at
this new turn OF affairs remains to be seen.

Gently out of an exhausting war reduced
its debt in three years $9l7 7,o25 geo yet
the United States did just that from

our securities are not SO high in Europe

Why is this thus9 Have certain politi:

that they could not rise and soar away ?
Then such politicians are too expensive

may be, for the people to indulge in.

Charles Francis Adams, in an irate letter,
sourly tells the men who are engineering the
Cincinnati convention that they are gang of
tricksters and knaves, whose favUrs he
despises and whose recognition is more calcu-
lated TO impair gcntleman's character thao
improve his prospects IN life After reading
this letter, Greeley coolly says:
1t is not the letter of a politician and II
may not better Mr.. Adams chances for the
Cincinnati nomination, but it is worthy the
son and grandson of Presidents whose service
honored the Republic in its better days"
When smittcn on one check, Greeley turns
the other. 1t is ohristan-like to do So and

EMANCIPATION AT THE Observation-Disclosures
stretched forth her hands, and legs, in an
innumerable multitude, which no man or
woman could count, ON the anniversary cele-
bration of freedom TO the slave. All the
desultory crowds from the adjoining counties
in Maryland and Virginia poured in on foot
on muloback, and OK wagons and carts, from
long before daylight 10 high noon," while
every incoming train from Baltimore and Rich
mond and all the river boats came laden with
the motley and picturesque ireightage. Flags
were up all over the city. The air was resonant
with fife, drum and brass bands. The military
and many of the fire companies turned out and
altogether 1t was u most notable galaday
The President came out and reviewed the
novel procession, which, despite its many
colored and tattcred garbs and hack ofmilltary
order in the march, was nevertheless thoroughly
infused with grand idea, and that idea was
LIBERTY.

The New York CMmercial Aduertiscr has a
reminiscence concerning Charles Francis
Adams which may be Of interest 10 his support
ers among the Liberals" ltintimates that past
experience may haye led Mr.. Adams to be
doubtful of the success Of that crowd" al
Cincinnati, for he is no stranger to boiling
nomination.
In 1948, he was associated with Van Buren
in the Free Democrlic movement, whose object
was 10 kill Cass. This end was accomplished,
and that was all, much to the amazement OF
the deluded Free Soldiers, who were told by
their leaders that both Cass and Taylor would
be defeated. The Buffalo men then boasted
and prophesied precisely as these Cincinnati
men now do. The result was that in poll o
2,87l ,936 votes Cass had 1,220,544, Taylor
1360,090 and the Liberal movement" beg
carly 20l 1858. The precedent of 1S49 is q
precedent only for Liberal defeat. Conven
tions and votes have changed since lS49, and
made the Republican party too powerful TO
succumb TO a conspiracy.

Whore the blades Of the grave gras. gh'Str,

Waiting the judgment day;
Under the one The Blue.
Under the other The Gray.
These in the rohings Of glory.
Tho,ei in the gloom Of defeat;
All with the ha,ile blood CORY.
In the dusk Of eternity meet
Under the sod and the dew,
Waiting the Judgment day;
Under the laurel the Blue,
Under the willow The Gray.
From The silence Of sorrowipl hours
The desolate niOn,nrrs go,
Lovingly laden with flowers,
Alike for the friends and the foe

Waiting the Judgment day;

Woodruff and oIunin Indicted.

New YORK, Nov. AT two o'clock to-day
the United States grand jury found indictments
against Victoria Woodruff aud FEMME c.
Clafiin, who were arrested on Saturday, charged
with mailing indecent printed matter through
the post.
The prisoners were taken from Ludlow street
Jail at one O'Clock, and brought before Commits
Sioner Osborne, who said the indictments re
leased him from the necessity of holding an ex-
animation. They were visibly affected on hear
ing the indictments,-Mr Woodruff almost to
tears. Miss Claflin looked somewhat defiant.
The counsel for the prisoners complained OF
the conduct Of the government in pressing an
indictment pending an examination as a most
arbitrary proceeding. The accused came pre-
pared for the fullest examination, and he was
ready to prove that Woodruff & CaAin's
Weekly was no more obscene than the
matrimonial advertisements and certain articles
in the rest of the press. His clients published a
work for regeneration and reformation of so.
ciety, and if it ought to be suppressed, so should
the Bible and all works of general knowledge.
The commissioner ordered the warrants follow
ing the indictments to be secured upon the ac-
cused and they were removed to jail in default
