A most disgraccful sight has been
brought to light within tho past few
days. Tho Legislature just before

Niles q. Parker for showing them up
than by any love Of justice, passed.

tho rce*;pt having been torn out OF
the book, wo plc~uu.o his Exccll,uc,
will claim now that he nvv.r saw

Maxwel''s receipt is forgery. In
the meanwhile, Parker seems to be
rejoicing.
We regard the suppression of this

done, as the crowning outrage Of the
