clusIon IS too obvious, and it is useless to
pursue the matter further,
Inc great dFamatist, who, better than all
other men, seems to have understood. the
question involved in this discussion, has
admirably portrayed in one of his trans
cendent masterpieces, Measure for Meas
ure," the difficulties of the lawgiver in
Furnishing this otfense against society. The
very Judge called on to pronounce SEN
tence against the fornicator; falls himself
when like temptation is presented. The
drama shows the all-pervading and all con-
trolling influences of a vice which the law
can not reach
Our Saviour, the greatest of all moralists,
who spake as never man spake, when the
edness and misery for condemnation, ut
tered the memorable words: "He that is
without sin among you, let him first cast
stone at herw
This vice seems to be involved in the very
network Of society. 1t may be controlled.
The unfOrtunates involved in its meshes
may be, to certain extent, protected.
They are part of society, and they must
live; but they must not so live under the
laws that they can iDjure or destroy the
rights of others. They must not stand up
in court of justice, and say, eve are
above the law"
We submit that we are entitled to recover
in this case, and that it would be more op-
posed to good morals for us not to recover,
and more injurious to the interests of soci-
ETY., than for your honors to sustain the
opinion rendered in the case of Kaufman
vs.. Walters.

A Fact to Consider.

If the people vote for the
railroad tax on the 23d inst,
it will be the wealth of the
township which will be taxed
leaving the poor man with lit
tie or nothing to pay. The
heaviest tax payer in the town
ship is the NJ. & Q. r. R.; next,
Vinton County Bank; next,
Hon. John Fee; DR.. Wolf prob
ably comes next. 1t is a salts
faction to US to know that
these parties having examined
the matter carefully are all In
favor of the tax, especially as
The first three named pay one
fifth of the entire tax of the
township.

TIE World says, editorially:
"Among the three millions of
citizens WHO make up the rank
and file OF the Democratic par
ty, there are not three thous-
and, and probably not three
hundred, who, if asked to &C
cept Mr.. Greeley before this
machinery was put in motion,
would not have derided the
proposition. But when a set
of irresponsible intriguers has
succeeded in packing prelim-
mary caucuses, and dexterous-
ly manipulating State conven-
tions in the Greeley interest,
many Democrats yielded their
opposition from sheer despair
of foillng the intriguers. Dem
ocrats do not want Greeley,
but if forced into a necessity
OF choosing between him and
Grant, they may perhaps be at
last brought 10 vote for him
not that they dislike Greeley
less, but Grant. more."f

West, a former citizen of Macarthur, a
young gentleman in apparently desti-
.dte circumstances There was'pfsh-
ing particularly striking about his per-

from the ordinary class Of mOrtals in
like condition, with the exception that
he maintained the strictest reticence
in regard to his past life, refusing-for
reasons least known to himself - 10
give name, age, or former place of res
idence. Bet that his experience had
been q sad one, we had not the slight>
est reason to doubt, as he seemed
greatly affected. After giving the
youthful stranger a few scrutinizing
glances, to assure themselves that they
had not been cOnhdenced by some
Greeleyite, they passed him over 70 the
tender mercies of few persons who
happened to be calling at the time, and
he soon appeared arrayed in Dolly
(withOut the Varden) costume, suitable
to his rank and station in society, and
now occupies a prominent position in
the family. Weight ten pounds. y.
