A SECOND DANIEL.

There has been no instance within our
knowledge Of such rapid rise in popular
ity as has occurred in the universal South
ern acceptance of the Massachusetts, doc
trine that the Supreme Federal Court
shall act as arbiter upon legal questions
in which the rights Of American citizens
shall be adiudicated. The claim of the
sovereign right of the State in which such
citizens may reside to int rvene with it's
protective agis has been renowned:
The decision of the Supreme Court was
that no proof had been presented of
purpose to obstruct the suffrage of man
of color because he was no. white, or be-
cause he had been slave. He was put
on an equality with white man as to all
causes of objection not made Illegal by
federal statute. All alleged violations OF
personal right not provide for By federal
statute are exclusively cognizable by State
jurisdiction. So says the Supreme Court,
and it is applauded therefor. The Circuit
Court Of the United States has won a
a similar acquiescence by the able
and impartial exercise Of it's au-
thority The plea Of the whisky de-
PENDANTS has been considered by Judge
Woods with elaborate impartiality. The
section Of the federal statute imposing
disqualification upon the juror is shown
to have been retained by the compiler,
after it had been repealed by Congress.
Yet the court held that it was still in
force. Under this ruling, the court held
that two excellent citizens who had taken
up arms against the United States were
thereby disqualified to act as jurors. At
this decision the ex-Confederate defend
ants who had made the objection threw
up their caps and proclaimed his honor,
Judge Woods, second Daniel come
to judgment. In their precipitate in
formation, against the ex-Confederate
jurors, The ex-Confederate informers
omitted to state in what capacity, and, in
deed, what war the person had served.
They had also erred in the object of their
plea, which should have asked an abate-
ment of the indictment instead of dis
charge of the defendants. Therefore,
while the ex-Confederate jurors can not
sit in Judgment on the affairs of their fell
low-citizens, the ex-Confederate informers
will have to undergo trial before per-
fectly loyal jury. They will now present
the evidence upon the merits, which will |
insure justice at the hands of court
whose jurisdiction is admitted, and to
whose justice none can except.

NAVAL IRREGULARITIES FOR TEE HOUSE
COMMITTEE.


Notwithstanding the persistent attacks
of the opposition press on Secretary
Robson, the House Committee on Naval
Affairs do not seem eager to pursue the
investigation commenced some time
since. Perhaps affairs in the department
Of the navy are not SO bad as the Demo-
cratic committee hoped. In the begin
ming it was evidently the intention of the
Democrats in the House to render the
Republican party irreproachable by purg-
ing it of all who, by evil practices in
Office, had brought discredit upon it.
Perhaps their work is so nearly accomp-
lished that the present party in power has
only pure Republicans in Office, and may
60 before the country and thank the Dem
ocrats for their success in the next cam
paign.
But Mr.. Robson is no longer pursued
with the ardor with which the investiga-
ton was commenced, perhaps because the
ammunition has failed. If the committee
has not become exhausted by its labors it
may find occupation in examining the
records of the Department during the
time their own party held the purse
strings.
During the administration of the last
great and good Democratic President, Mr..
Buchanan, bids were invited for a large
contract to supply live oak to the Navy
Department. There was lively contest
tor the privilege of furnishing this
oak, and among them was enc at fair
price by a perfectly responsible party.
This was rejected. The contract was
awarded to another, at more than double
the rates Of the bid before mentioned.
This matter was first unearthed by certain
parties who thoroughly exposed it. In
attempting to investigate the matter before
the Naval Committee an obstacle was en-
countered in the shape of statement
that the contract had been awarded to
the highest bidder by the express order
of President Buchanan. Perhaps the
present committee may have better
success. They can learn if the then Sec
rotary of the Navy said the contract was
so awarded in defiance of all law. They
can ascertain from Washington witness
who has been before them that $50, 600 of
the price had been turned into the treas
ury of the Democratic Central Committee
to be used for Democratic campaign pur-
poses. They can easily summon Mr..
John Brown, the superintendent of the
navy yard at Warrington, Florida, and
Mr.. S. P. Brown, corner of Fifteenth and
G streets, Washington, District of Column
bia. They might ask the latter why he
has not called for a statement of this
lively contract for oak. But it is not
likely this investigation will be as attrac-
tive as that in Republican administra-
ton.
