THE SCHUsTER ESTATE.

After the malicious attack against
Judge Prescott in the regular and extra
issues of the Herald, charging that gen.
tIeman with unawfully retaining mon
les in his possession belonging to the
school fund, the following record of the
proceedings lately had in the Probate
Court, will be refreshing to The lovers
of fair play. Common decency and
justice would suggest an acknowledge
ment of their error by the editorial Stnf
of the Herald, but this is hardly to be
expected from men who ignore right
and justice, in their insane desire to pun
ish political opponents. Judge Pres
colts vindcation is complete, and the au-
thors of the attack upon his character
will be certainly rebuked by the people
next Tuesday.
