HEARING IN THE CASH

HEARING IN THE CASE
OF WARRICK AND UNDERWOOD-DE-
CISION RESERVED BY JUDGE SMELL.
Thomas B. Warrick was arraigned yesterday
before Judge Smell, charged with the forgery
ofthe name of H. Steele to certain order upon
George E. Baker, comptroller of the District Of
Columbia, on the 10Th day of February, 1874.
Mr.. W. N. Evans acted as counsel for the
Government, and General Hinkle appeared for
the defence. After some preliminary business,
required to arrange the case for trial, Comp
troller Baker was sworn and testified (after
looking at the certificate) that he had seen it
before; it had been presented at his Office for
payment by Mr.. Warrick; the stamp upon the
certificate was his official stamp; Albert H.
Underwood was messenger in his Ofiee, ana
had charge of the stamp at the time; witness
could not tell at what time the certificate vas
passed TO him, his books would tell; 1t was MS
impression that it was in March or APnl last;
the blank was filled up in the hand OF his
messenger, A H. Underwood, and signed with
K mark: the printed form could be purchased
at any booksellers; the stamp is permitted to
be used by the messenger; the stamp signifies
nothing at all; it was the habit of firemea and
others to fill up these orders and sell them on
the pay due them; witness took the certificate
anu lesutu u JdA C6TIllCaIe upon II: LDe N
dorsement upon the back of Thomas B. War
rick's name did not appear to be in WaTick's
handwriting, nor in Underwood's; Mr.. Steele
had since appeared at the office and denied the
warrant and all knowledge of it; the District
was not paying money, and these employees
were in the habit Of drawing these orders; the
stamp on the order simply signifed that the
amount was due the drawer of the order; the
effect of the stamp, he thought, would be to
give them the appearance of being good on the
street and among brokers; it had formerly
been the custom to leave the name in the face
of the order blank, and to fill it up afterwards.
Henry Steele, fireman, testified that he never
signed the order, or gave any authority to sign
it. There was one month Of his pay drawn by
means of the order in question; this was sixty
dollars; he was in the habit Of selling orders
for his pay, not having been paid of for thir-
teen months; others had done so, too; it was
his custom to fill up his order and omit the
name from the face until the order was sold.
Mr.. Evans rested the prosecution at this

THE PORE ON AMERICAN LIBERTY. 1t is in
teresting to know that the value of the alb
solute religious freedom guaranteed by the
American constitution to all sects is properly
appreciated by the Roman Ponhff. In reply
to an address the Pope made the remarkable
admission that it was only under our republic
can institutions that the Catholic Church en-
joyed absolute freedom. Under all other
forms of government whether in Catholic or
Protestant States, the acts Of the Head of the
Church are subjected to interference and super
vision by the authorities. Yet, strangely
enough the Catholic Church has been one of the
strongest enemies of republicanism in modern
Europe Everywhere the Church organization
has been devoted to upholding the govern
ments of kings and emperors. May we hope
that the Pope and his advisers begin to see
their error, and to recognize that the interests
of religion as vol as of civilization and liberty
are best advanced by republican institutions,
which leave the conscience free and UNI
trammelled? If the Church would only recog-
nize this truth one Of the greatest obstacles to
the spread OF liberty and popular government
would be done away with.

plumes itself upon political sagacity, that
sthe evidences that General Grant means to
run q third time are multiplying almost
daily; !" and 1--WE are satisfied that Grant is
in Agrim earnest in his endeavor to secure
third nomination and q third election as Presi-
dent" With definite recognition of this sort
from people supposed to be above the run Of
humanity in capacity to distinguish between
real and imaginary evils, may the third term
be regarded as legitimate subject of political
discussion in these days, or is it still merely
. ridiculous imagination and newspaper
sensation? Here is q conundrum for those
who fouted at US as uttering imputations on
Grants patriotism when we first discussed the
third term as possible, but who now deem it
o very pretty fancy.
