GEORGE W. JULIAN ON THE POLITICAL
SITUATION.

The following letter from Mr.. Julian, who was
Vice President OF the Cincinnati Convention, was
addressed to the meeting Of the American Temper
Commission and Reform League, held at Stein
way Hall on Tuesday, the 18th inst
CENTREvILLE Ind, May S, 1874
DEAR Mr.. POWELL have Just received your
letter inviting me to attend and address the ami
versary meetings Of the American Temperance Com
mission and the Reform League, to be held in New
have only just returned from Cincinnati and am
obliged by Imperative business to leave home again
at once, having time simply for brief word In re-
Spouse to your desire that should say something
respecting "the political situation and prospects,"
To man like YOURSELF who has put
of present political duty may not seem
very well defined. The situation Ia certainly
somewhat novel and peculiar AS to General Grant,
the thought OF supporting him and the men around
him, whose instrument he Is, has seemed to me so
morally preposterous that have never entertained
1t. As an alternative shalt cooperate with the
liberal republican movement. 1t is by means all
that want. The action OF Its Convention at Gin
cinnati shows that 1t win not fully meet the de-
mands OF the hour. 1t was clearly not prepared
to confront the first question involving the disputed
right OF one-half the citizens OF the republic
to voice In the government which they are
obliged to support and obey; and sincerely regret
also the unfrfendly spirit manifested by portion Of
the Convention towards two representative women,
whose earnest and resolute demand to be heard
was denied them. There Ia room for criticism as to
other points. But the liberal movement is not yet
ae 0ca y FOR
clear sign that such q party is needed and the
transition to Its formation through the rupture OF
old parties which It must produce. The situation
today reminds one Of the nebuious condition OF
our politics In 1s54-5, out Of which finally emerged
the star OF republicanism that lighted our way
to national salvation. AS practical men we
must take the material at our disposal and
do the attainable work which is nearest and most
immediately pressing and that is the breaking
up OF old organizations whose work Is done, whose
tyranny Is fatal to all independence and manliness,
and whose existence threatens the moral life Of the
a a nd
organized thieving which find their congenial home
under the shelter OF the present administration,
and this preliminary work will open the way for a
reconstruction OF parties the real issues which
the course OF events and the logic OF politics will
necesstate. The master is the builder. The work
of destruction must precede that OF construction
and would summon to 1t all VINO will labor feeling
certain that this IL the chosen and way to any
real progress, now or hereafter. Very truly yours,
GEORGE w. JULIAN.

pany was resumed yesterday. 1t Is an action, as
already stated in the HERALD by the plaintiff, who
is Russian lady Of distinction, to recover from the
railroad company damages for the loss OF large
quantity OF antique and valuable laces, which she
claims were worth over 100000, and were stolen
from her trunk while she was travelling in the
train between Albany and Niagara Falls. Mr. Buck
ley and Mr.. Girard. Of the firm Of Platt Girard Il
Buckley, were counsel for the plaintiff, and Mr..
Strong and Mr.. Shepherd for the defendants.
DEPOSITION OF MADAME PRALOFF.
The deposition Of the plaintiff, Madame olga de
Maluta FralOn, was read by Mr.. Girard. 1t covered
several sheets Of manuscript and was an extended
and detailed account Of her visit to America and OF
the character and description Of the laces she had
lost she yalned them EN- at angt
In their possession over two hundred years and had
come to her by gift and inheritance. Her family

TESTIMONY OF MRS. ESTHER CARTER
Mrs. Esther Carter was further examined. She
stated that In order to give the value of old English
point lace and point d. AencOn, 1t would be neces-
sary for her to have the articles samples of them
before her. for there were good many qualities Of
these laces the difference being in the texture and
flneness.
A great many other questions with reference to
the value OF laces put to the Witness but they
were ruled out by the Judge as inadmissble.
AS yet no specimens OF the laces owned by
Madame Fraloff have been exhibited in Court 1t
appears, however, that when she made her deposit
ton In this city, before United States Commits
sioner, specimens were offered as exhibits, but
owing to their value, which was considerable, the
Commissioner declined to be responsible for their
safe keeping.
The further hearing of the case was adjourned
