journal in the world. in one of its most
reckless momcnts-in spasm of brave
carelessness OF scqucnces-declarcd
several uncomplimentary opinions of the
grand jury of Judge Williams court, and
also of Mr. Reed. the prosecuting a.tor-
ncy. The consequence was, that Judge
Williams. who at distance appears to
be a pctulant gentleman. spoiled
by the judicial meat upon which
he has fed during several years, became
angry; and Mr.. Reed, who i. busy
body, became indignant; aud the grand
jury became furious The result was,
Mr.. Storey was charged with contempt of
court, and Judge Williams sentenced him
to ten days imprisonment i'm the county
Jail. On the same day. after being con-
fined about twelve hours. he was released
upona supcrscdcas Issued by Judge Meal
lister, of the Supreme Court.
The arrest created much excitement
throughout the State, and the action of
Judge Williams has been generally con-
demncd. lie evidently acted upon the
promptings of anger. When he might
have imposed Il fine, hc sent Mr. Storey to
prison and his bearing throughout the
case showed conclu,ivcly that he neg

The arrest and imprisonment of Mr..

effect TO call the attention of the public to

courts to punish for this offense. Ii is
the only oflcnse upon which, being
charged with it, a citizen has no right to
a trial. and the penalty for which Is de
