a Imitation FOR the dignity and pluck

reporting his rejection before Offering

sci, This IL severe upon the senate
committee Blu, It is not near 80 much
20 as Mr.. Lawrence is upon Dana him.
ali In letter to the New York HeroId,
published Ia another column, he Te-
iterstes his charge Of pirsey, and adds
perjury to it, referring to the DEGREES OF
the United States circuit court, B s.or,
1869, for proof The New York Nation,
per contra Of this, asserts in its last
number that l. made
A careful c,llstion OF the two books
IN 1866, and published the result In No.
So Of The Nation. The only Ussis for
dr. LsWrer cs's charges worth notice
was that Mr.. Dlns's TRANSACTIONS from
70 eign languages occasionally were
JextuslIy like his own, TO which nobody
who has ever translated from modern
language wi attach any Importance in
the case of 8 man like Dir. Dana, who
was himself ma ter OF international
iaw and leading practitioner in sdmi-
rRity cases when he undertook the work.
As to identity in the illustrations cited
IF certain rules, since the illustrations
were prominent events of modern his
tory, 1t is almost absurd to base on
them an accusation o. bad faith offered
70 educated men. There is one case Of
literal copying Of q quotation OF four
liDes Of Lawreucs'5 from Blackstone,
with the typographical error which it
contained-Over which Mr., Lawrence
Gas been chi iishly eXultant, but there
is no doubt but that this was due to an
overs gut OF the printer, to whom, in
properly as we think, Mr.. Dana hsd
left the task Cf striking out all OF Law
rence's notes That this error was not
detected by him in the prCo,sheets was
natural enough.
Between The Ndtion's statement,
Mr. DAns's dignified denial, and Mr..
Lswrence's reiteraiion OF the charges,
who is to decide? And If the c:mmit-
tee reports adversely, are We to conclude
that it knows Dana TO be guilty as
charged? Who can tel?

MEYERS REMOV4L.

ST. LOUIS, Msrch 19.-Tne Times has
letter from Washington which con-
taips two letters, one from ES Govern
or h'Clurg aud the other from Ex- G w.
ernoc Fletcher, OF this State, which
urge the removal Of Colonel Meyer, su-
p9rvisor OF internal revenus Of this dis
Trsct, on the ground that he is corrupt
man, and unworthy OF trust. Ex-Gov-
ernor M'Ciurg, especially, speaks CT
Oh lnel Meyer as a bad and uDprinci-
ped man, and refers to the charges
made against him wnen he was a mem
Der Of The police board NJ this city, and
hCr which ne (M'Ciurg) removed him.
He says: "If were asked to name two
persons in the State more corrupt and
base than all others, would uahtsitat-
ingly name Colonel Meyer as one." The
Iines's letter says the President would
have renewed Meyer six weeks ago, but
for the intervention of Secretary Bris-
tow, who plead that no action should be
taken in the ma ter until the termina-
ton Of the whisky cases then pending,
These having concluded, Meyers re-
mOval may be expected any day. The
letter further states that the President
will not remove Meyer on the represent
atoms OF any one connected directly or
remotely with the whisky frauds, nor
for any act OF his sir CO be became su-
psrvisor, but on the statements made by
