returned to Cincinnati, where he entered upon
the practice of his profession, and between
1882 '35 published an edition of the statutes of
Ohio, with annotations, and preliminary his
tory OF the State, in three large volumes. This
edition soon superseded all previous publica-
tions of the statutes, and Is now received as
authority'in the courts. Aided by the reputa-
ton thus acquired, he soon gained Q valuable
practice, and early in 1884 became solicitor of

and not long after Of one of the city banks
In 1881 Mr.. Chase acted as counsel for q colored
woman claimed as fugitive slave, and in an
elaborate argument, afterward published, con-
troyerted the power of Congress to impose any
duties or confer any powers in fugitive slave
cases on state magistrates, position I'm which
ne has since been sustained b. the o: s. Supreme
relative to fugitives from service, was void
because unwarranted by the Constitution of
the United States. The same year, in an argu-
defense Of James G. Birney, prosecuted under
state law for harboring Q negro slave, Mr.
Chase asserted the doctrine that slavery is local
and dependent on state law for existence and
to have been harbored, having been brought
within the territorial limits Of Ohio by the
individual claiming her as master, was
thencefcrth in fact and by right free.
Mr. Chase's sentiments of hostility to the ma

position In the political movements of the
country, as well as in his efforts at the bar.

sherman and His Indian Policy.

In Gen. Sherman's letter. published in
Yesterdays issue, occurs this paragraph
Whether they the Modocs have
sustained wrongs or not, is not in question,
but they have taken refuge in a natural
fortress. have defled the civil and military
agents, and lastly, under flag of truce,
killed Gen, Candy, who was their best
friend.
We insist that whether the Modocs have
sustained wrongs or not, should be in
question if it is not. Their wrongs do not
Justify the murder of Candy, but they do
show to every impartial mind that the
butchery of this gallant soldier had some
provocation-and this provocation must be
taken into account if we desire to form an
accurate judgement of the wretched bust
ness. Gen. Sherman declares that the
Modocs deserve determination, and has
issued orders accordingly. Did the gov
ernment exterminate Capt Wright and
his band who slaughtered the fathers Of
the men who killed Candy? We think
not. On the contrary, this bloody rufiau
was appointed Indian agent, and served in
that capacity until he got his deserts
None of those associated with him in the
massacre were ever molested, because the
victims Of the massacre were only What
Gen. Sherman calls 'treacherous Indians.
Treacherous they are, but who would mol
