JUDGE DAVIS'S MARK.

The satisfaction which the public feel
at the manner in which Judge Davis pre-
sided over the trial of Tweed, is enhanced
by the decided course which he pursued
towards Tweed's counsel, for their attempt
to intimidate him and prevent him from
trying the case against the great public
robber. If his boldness and honesty in
dealing with Tweed are admirable as a
lesson to great rogues who depend upon
money and political influence TO shield
them from punishment, his filming of
Graham and others, the lawyers who un-
dertook to defend Tweed, and in doing so
insulted and bullied the Judge upon the
Bench, is highly gratifying as wholesome
reprimand to that class of lawyers who
are accustomed to insult Judges and brow
best Witnesses in the management of
cases. Such lawyers are not confined to
New York State. There would not be SO
many - there are If there were more
Davis's, upon the Bench. With Judge
who's decided and determined to maintain
his rights and dignity such legal DULLES
can make no progress, while the fair and
candid lawyer has the equal opportunity
to which he is entitled, witnesses are not
badgered or frightened into lunacy, and
our courts may properly claim to be places
ofjustice. There are lawyers in Maine who
are q terror to courts on account of their
manners and INSCRIPTIONS practice, who
need the reforming hand of Davis to
teach them their proper place and relieve
the communities in which they are pest,
obtaining business not because they are
great lawyers, but because they are great
blackguards, DULLES and rascals. In his
address Judge Davis said:
A. God 10 my judge, what feel it my duty
to do do, not from any personal motive, but
from solemn duty to the court, the bar, and
above all to the administration OF justice in
my country. No lawyer is justified in any
act, for the sake Of his client, which would
render him amenable to the bar of his own
conscience, or tend to degrade the tribunal
before which he appears, or lesson respect
for that official authority on which so much
depends Tor the preservation Of our institu
tons. ! must make the mark so deep and
broad that all members of the bar will know
hereafter that all such efforts are obnoxious
to censure and punishment and fine. As the
Law permits, fine William Fullerton, John
Graham and Willard o. Bartlett $3.50 each,
and order that they stand committed until the
fine be paid.
In respect to the younger members of the
bar Who have signed this paper, Elihu Root
and VIM. Eggleston, I have this to say-I
know young lawyers are apt to follow their
seniors. Mr.. Eggleston did not take any
active part in the trial, and do not speak of
him. The other young lawyer displayed
great ability through the trial. shall impose
no penalty except what they may find 10 these
few words Of advice. ask you, young gen.
tlsmsn, 70 remember that good faith to
client never can justify or require bad faith

At meeting in Plymouth church the othe

At a meeting in Plymouth church the other
evening relating to the affairs of that body
and other churches, Mr. Beecher said
II merely wish to say in regard to these
resolutions, that there are two types in every
church; in the Episcopal church, high and
low in the Presbyterian church, old and
new; in the Baptist church, open and close
communion; in other words, human nature
divides itself towards the aristocratic and dem
ocra,c from great principles involved in hu-
man nature. The same is true in the ongre-
gational polity large number of men hold
to a high degree of authority to be exercised
in churches, and on each other through pub
lie sentiment. Others hold a local indepen-
dence of the church and its being, and the
right Of the church to determine without the
interference of other churches-questions that
belong definitely to itself-in other words, the
democratic and aristocratic construction of
Congregationalism. l need not say that Ply
mouth church, from the constitution of its
members and the disposition Of its pastor, has
always stood on the platform of democratic
Congrcgationaisn, distinguished from
stringent and aristocratic Congregationalism /;
and there is this thug to be understood, that
we are not going aside to "a new place, but
simply arranging ourselves on that side in
the division Of Congregational polity, that we
are democratic and not governed by other
churches. Mr.. Beecher then read commu-
nication he had received from a Congrega-
tional clergyman in Massachusetts,, of forty
years standing, to the following effect: You
are right in the infamous discipline case, and
it is true and simple Congregationalsm, what
ever may be said about discipline. l have
been Congregational minister for forty years.
and the time never when l would not
have my church do just as yours has done. l
believe three-quarters of the Congregational
churches in this State, not to say country,
would have done the same thing, and think
many of them have done it, very many. A
man cannot go out of the church without GEN.
sure, when there is no Scriptural authority
for one single word of censure. Strange idea
The fellowship of the church hereabouts in
Congregationalism has become exceedingly
oppressive, very hard to be borne in many
apprehensions. To be sure. nobody knows
exactly what i. is, only that it means that a
Congregational church has not right to man.
age its own affairs on Gospel principles, and
that it means what certain leading persons in
the church and ministry say it means. thank
the Lord for your stand in the case. SticF J!
l will not give this pastors name. In con-
clusion, am in favor of these resolutions.

The general opinion Of the press in re-
lation to the committees appointed by
Speaker Blaine is that they are about as
near right as they could be made. Very
few complaints are heard, and no attempt
at labored and hostile criticism upon the
committees as whole is witnessed. There
may be individuals who would desire
other places than those to which they are
assigned, but it is generally conceded
that all interests have been fairly recog-
nized and treated by the Speaker, while
the claims of members have been proper.

Washington correspondent says: The
opposition to the confirmation of Mr.. Will
liams as Chief Justice does not appear to as
sumo tangible shape in the Senate, and
much of the talk against him originates from
the friends of those who have been disap-
pointed. A member of the Supreme Court
has stated that the bench is very much dissat-
isfed with his nomination. Some Senators
who do not like the nomination are express
ing the hope that the President will withdraw
the name, and a number have advised him to
do it. This, however, is not regarded as like
ly, and it is understood that the President il
not at all all pleased with the reception which
the nomination meets in the Senate, especial
ly as nearly all the Senator'S united in recon.
mending Mr.. Williams in the warmest terms
for the position he now holds.

The cool presumption of the democratic
journals outside of Wisconsin in claiming the
recent victory over the republican party in
that State is thus rebuked by the Madison
Democrat: The total vote is the largest
ever polled at Gubernatorial election in this
State, and Taylor's vote is the largest ever
received by any candidate for Wisconsin, and
his majority is the largest any candidate ever
received with the exception Of Lewis in 1868,
whose majority was swelled to l6, 900 by the
soldier vote. The farmers have rallied man :
given him vote that no other man ever re-
ceived for that high office"

propriety of passing an act prohibiting the sale

In the Pennsylvania Superior Court Friday
Judge Agnew delivered an opinion, in which
all the judges concurred, restraining the elec.
ton Commissioners appointed by the con
stitutional convention from acting. The de-
cision is to the effect that the constitutional
convention had not the extensive powers j,
attempted to assert, and that it had been gull
ty of an act of attempted usurpation in setting
aside the system prescribed for this city and
inaugurating a new one.

If the telegraphic dispatches are to be
believed General Sickles's resignation as
Minister at Madrid is fixed fact, and its
acceptance is only delayed few days If
it has not already taken place. The
difficulty is between the Minister and our
State department, in relation to the course
of the former in the discharge of his du-
ties. We judge that Minister Sickles was
rather rash and hasty, and hence the
difference with the State department
which causes his resignation.

SIR EDWIN LANDSEER.

The death Of Sir Edwin Landseer, the
most superb animal painter Of his day, took
place on October /. His father, an eminent
engraver, and for fifty yeats an associate Of
the Royal Academy, gave his son Edwin,
who was born in London in 1902, a careful
art training, and was accustomed to take
him out when only a child to sketch ami
mails on Hampstead Heath. Some of his
efforts are dated as early as his eighth year,
so that he is a standing proottba precocity
does not always imply subsequent failure,
Indeed, he drew animals correctly and
powerfully even before be was five years
old. His first appearance, however, as a
painter dates from 1915, when, at the age
of thirteen, he exhibited two paintings at
the Academy" Portrait of a Mule and
"Portraits of a Pointer Bitch and Puppy"
In 1850 he received from Her Majesty the
honour of knighthood and received also
the large gold medal from the authorities
ofthe Universal Exhibition Of Paris in 1855.
In private life Sir Edwin was one Of the
most kind and courteous Of men, and the
warmest Of friends. His conceptions fire.
q%uently bear a highly poeticol character,
and the power which he possessed Of throw
ing expression into dumb creatures is most
remarkable and astonishing. Nearly all
Landseel's pictures have been engraved,
some by his brother Thomas, who has in
Lerited the peculiar gifts of the father, and
who is regarded as one Of the best living
engravers in England.

when a person of sent!emanIy appearance

became naturally indignant at this liberty,
and expressed himself strongly on the sub
iect, but the stranger, who received the re-
buke with the utmost composure, after go
ing through the form Of writing something,
handed back the pen with thanks. When
the clergymanresumed disposition to write,
he found that his 73l. in notes were gone,
and while be was making known his loss
the stranger disappeared. The perpetra-
