State, yesterday, the report of the cLief con.
stable relative TO official interference of Z.
S. Marshal iCoggsiiall, at the recent seizure
Of liquors, which were under the protection
of the State. On presenting the report the
governor made a speech, in the course OF
which he said: In The collision between the
officers stated and the United States, he was
called on by a member of the constabulary
and informed of the existing difficulty and
asked to Interfere in the matter. Although
there was no doubt In my own mind that
might direct a portion Of the military cstab-
lishment OF the State to sustain the State
officers and the law, yet prudence required
that the question might better be decided by
the court rather than by the intervention OF
the military therefore directed the con-
to make no, further effort to seize
tho liquor then held by the u. s. marshal
and his deputy. I agree fully with the uni
versal opinion that these attachments are
collusiye and thinly disguised sham. and
/ share tho general sense of modification at
the indignity to which our commonwealth
was subjected. realize also the gravity OF
the situation and recognize ii as our imper-
alive duty to take measures for an early and
proper adjustment of the question There
have been dinned int our ears for the past
six months threats in regard to Fort Ander-
son and revenue cutters. but SO long as these
threats are words, they have been treated as
such yet when tits gravely stated by. re-
spectacle and intelligent journal that troops
from Fort Adams and the L. s. revenue cut
ter Samuei Dexter had been placed at the
disposition of the marshal, 1t seems proper
to ASK sslly this. wss done II must be for
the purpose Of wafing war on the people Of
the State who. from tie date of itsssettlement
have been noted for their intelligence, con-
and patriotism. Your presence
