JOSEPH Il. BRADLEY, JR.
A TRIBUTE TO HIS MEMORY.

The founuinH thn reun0Tss IN fuIl made by
Mr.. Henry W. Garnett at the meeting Of the Bar
Association last Tuesday, in honor Of the late
Joseph H. Bradley, il.
MR. CHAIRMAN: On my return to this city yes
terdsy evening, learning for the first time Of our
common loss, / have come to-day to offer my hum
BILE tribute to the memory Of our departed brother
MY acquaintance with him began early in my
life, for recollect him as the head of the first
Sunday school which attended. Inadequate as
my power is to speak Of him as he deserves or
desire, feel that silence would be unseemly and
to this AssemblaRe Il needs no full sentences nor
rounded periods 10 portray the sorrow which is
not mine alone, but is reflected in all surrounding
countenRnces.
The scythe Of the dread reaper has again fallen
upon one Of our number, and he has gone from US
into the silent land whittier we too must follow.
In what words can exDress our grief9 In what
language recount his virtues2 Alas! SIR, It is I'm
possible to clOthe in ftWoTds our general lamenta-
our loss, and we lament It, but how family does
that lament convey the depth Of our sorroWH And
his virtues are written on our hearts, and not on
ours only, but on the hearts Of many to whom
those virtues had endeared him.
Snatched away in the prime Of his manhood,
when 10 our imperfect vision there appeared still
many useful years before him, We can only bow
our faces in the dust and murmur in tones Of sor-
row at the nat Of On inserutsble Providence,
Thy will be done"
The loss our profession has sustained in his
death has been declared by the series Of resolu-
lions now before the meeting but the loss that we
have sustained as individuals is beyond express
IL - AuOso huO II IL
that we have cause TO gr1eve for our brother con-
scentiOus always in the discharge Of what he IN
derstOOd TO be his duty, has realized the desire
expressed by one OF England's great judges
mo orphans cry TO wound my ear,
Ny honor and my conscience clear,
Thus may l calmly meet my end,
Thus to the grave in peace descend"
He has passed only a short time before the most
lovely and ssddest season Of the year-the fall
Of the leaves. Already on the mountain sides the
trees are beginning to deck themselves in gOr-
geous cOlors, and in q few weeks those above his
silent home will cover 1t with a mantle dyed in
the hues OF autumn, and for each bright leaf in
that mantle there will be enshrined In our hearts
the beautiful memory Of some kindness done by
our brother who has gone before US.

RESOLVED OYA LEE OF SRANE.


Last night Detectives Sargent and McElfresh
and Officer PeRsteT took from O house Of nl-fame
on Thirteenth street, kept by q woman named
Ellen Ale, (lrish Ellen,) young girl apparently
about fourteen years Of age. On questioning her
she stated that she was from Richmond, Va,
where she had been raised In a benevolent insti-
tuition, and after her seduction came to Washing
ton, where she has been week or more. She
did not seem to regret the course she had taken,
but on the contrary said she purposes following
the life she had begun, and If taken away from
her seducer she would commit suicide. The girl
is pretty, Of m edium height, and has the appear
ance Of one that has been tenderly raised. She
was taken to police headquarters, and telegram
sent to her father in Richmond notifying him OF
her arrest, an answer to which will be received
to-day. The active measures being taken by the
detectives and police officers in attempting to
rescue those who have just begun to walk in the
downward course deserve the highest eommenda-
ton OF all good people.

Dr.. Edward Leon, the abortionist, was ar
rested last night BY Detectives McElfresh and
Sargent, IN front Of Harvey & Holden's saloon,
corner Of Eleventh street and Pennsylvania
avenue, and taken to police headquarters.
It wiz be remembered by the readers of THE
NATIONAL REPUBLICAN that an account was
published . few months ago Of this mai-prae-
toner performing abortion on . young Irish
woman, named Susan Mclaughlin, which
came near proving fatal In ia results. The
girl was conducted TO 4 dilapidated frame
house IN an alley between h and and Four
teenth and fifteenth streets, and there placed
in charge Of a woman IS nurse, who amer the
child was delivered threw IL into . stove and
burned Il TO crisp, leaving only few bones
Is evidence Of her barbarous deed.
Detectives McElfresh and Sargent worked
the case up, and Leon was indicted by .hs
grand jury. Before the trial came on, finding
that the evidence was strong against him, he
Jumped the town, and which the case was
called his bondsman was requested to make
good the bail. No tidings Of his whereabouts
could Be ascertained, and II was concluded that
he had taken . permanent departure from the
city. It seems that this was mistake; for
yesterday the same detectives who had ar
rested him before discovered that he was here
and spent the night At the Owen house.
They Immediately instituted search for him,
ap3 came upon him last night about 1880
O'Clock, enjoying quiet neal ct Harvey &
Holden's. Amer he had finished bis repast
they stepped up 10 him, and, informing him Of
the object Of their visit, invited him TO walk 10
police headquarters, where he would have an
opportunity to digest his food quietly and IN
disturbed. BE win be recommttted 10 JAIL TO-
day, aud probably viii not have chance to be

been very energetic In securing this man, Who
is guilty Of one OF the most henious crimes
known to the law, and It now remains 10 be
