There have been rumors for some
days that Il. Il. Norton, assignee In
bankruptcy under Durell, had been in
dicted by the Grand Jury, and that the
charges Were very grave. Some of the
daily papers have published the reports.
and Mr.. Norton took notice Of them by
card in the PicGyuno replying thereto.
We learned last night .that Mr.. Norton
had been indicted for overcharging in
his fees In some one or more cases.
What may be proven we know not, nor
to what an investigation may lead. But
there must be others beside the Univer-
sal Assignee mixed up in these cases,
and no matter whom the lightning may
strike whether upon the bench, or
among the bar, or Tie oldest and best
our hope is, that strict and impartial
justice may come home to all and every
one guilty OF wrong doing. Call the.
cases, Mr.. Clerk.

fix the guilt upon, and therefore the
cese of Mr.. Urban is somewhat ex-
ceptional.
But the most entertaining part Of tins
story is vet to be told. Since the
appearance OF the report OF the House
committee n number of influential citi-
zens presented petition to Kellogg.
praying for the removal Of Urban aud
the appointment Of board, to be COM
posed Of three citizens, property holders
of the District, to revise the assessment
so unfairly and dishonesty made. In
reply to this petition Mr.. Kellogg said
he would remove Urban and appoint the
board If M. Michael Hahn ,colld sign
the petition. The citizens in charge OF
the petition called upon Hahn and re-
auested his signature. But that virtuous
and patriotic statesman could not see
it," Mr.. Urban's wife is his sister ;
the report threw mud" on his family
ties Of blood we're above oil
things honor. country, justice; in
short, brother-in-law Urban has soft
thing Of IL, and he must not be boosted
out of It. Mr.. Hahn was condescending
enough. however, to say that II the re-
quest for the removal OF Urban was
withdrawn, he would use his influence
to have the board appointed and the
assessments reduced. 1t seems. there
fore. that, II Mr. Hahn's brother-in-law
cannot be permitted to enjoy in peace
and security an important public Office,
which he haD abused and disgraced, the
property holders Of the Fourth District
must stand tho outrage perpetrated
upon them, and come down with that
extra one hundred thousand dollars.

devilish nature wasinflarned by liquor,
he plunged his knifein the first man
he met. and he struck very likely the
wrong man. Under the circumstances.
Kellogg has felt bound to save him: he
has COMMITTED the sentence OF death to
imprisonmcut-fo for life. In short time
Newton will be in California. There is
no other rational theory of this case as
it stands. as.t ....
Men who have to toll for an honest
living. and who have wives and little
ones to provide for, must hereafter keep
close in periods Of political excitement |;
they must keep Off the streets when KEEL
logg's hired ruffians are drunk and
abroad. The hired thug may happen to
feel like killing ID White League
son Of b-h, and quiet man. with
his wife and children awaiting his com
ing, may have knife plunged into his
heart when he least expects it, and
though he may DO living at peace with

Southern RcDub1icans.

We know of no class who need sym
pa thy moro than those who have joined
the Republican party in this State. Inthe
past year every effort has been made by
the Radicals to induce white men to join
their party, and few have done So.
When the move began it was the gen.
eral belief that the Republican party
would be victorious in 1876, and it Was
easy to persuade an easy conscience
that patriot could best serve his coun-
try by being on the winning side. But
all now has changed. Delano, Belknap,
Babcock and Grant have ruined the
party. Democratic investigation has
begun, and the Republican party is fall
ing to pieces in the Union. Honest men
are ashamed of mempership in it, and
good conscience rebels at tic idea of
placing it again in power. 1t has detied
the law. stabbed the constitution, out
ragged justice, done more to dissolve the
Union than did the Southern leaders of
1861, trampled upon the rights of the
States, and robbery, pillage, defalca-
ton, brib berry, corruption, theft and
utter lawlessness have been the distin-
gushing characteristics Of its leaders.
1t has been false to the people, and its
power Is forever broken. No son OF
Louisiana can be excused for attaching
himself to the Radical party, or for re-
manning longer in its ranks. The cor
ruptionists will find congeniality there,
but not the honest patriot.

THE MOSES IMPEACHMENT.
Let No Guilty Man Escape.

Especial Dispatch to the News and Courierl
COLUMBIA, March THE impeach-
ment trial of Judge Montgomery Moses
began Mt p. m. to-day in the presence
of large crowd of curious observers.
Before the opening Of the case by
the managers on the part of the
House, Colonel Rion, for the respond
ent, submitted an affidavit from Judge
M. Moses, in which he swears, upon in
formation and belief, that Senator Cor
win. of Newberry, had taken an active
part in taking and preparing the testi-
mony for the managers of the House,
and was in consequence not an impair
tial Judge to sit upon the trial Col.
Rion argued that, while there was no
law by which a Senator could be pre-
vented from sitting, yet he considered
that the Senate had right to consider
and pass upon the question, and the
Senator himself had the right to decline
to sit, if he considered himself biased.
Speaker Elliott replied, urging that it
was entirely incompetent for the Senate
to try any such issue, and, as the Sena-
tor was under oath, the mere raising of
such a question was an Injustice to him.
Senator Corwin had not taken any part
in the prosecution, except merely to
point out and direct the managers as to
where and how the evidence could be
obtained. The managers had q right to
question any Senator as to what he knew
Of the charges, and, il necessary, to
place any of them on the stand as q wit
ness.
Mr.. Barnwell said that the resolutions
under which the committee acted were
simply to investigate the conduct Of
Judge Moses. They said nothing about
impeachment, and the result Of the in
vestigation might have been recon-
mendation of removal from office by
address to the Governor by vote of
two-thirds of each House. Senator Cor
win had in no case been allowed to
question witnesses, and was not present
when any vote was taken by the com
mittee. There was no power TO supply
the place of the Senator objected to, and
the exclusion Of q member OF the court
was vote in favor of the accused.
The Senate retired to discuss the
question, and returned with the deci-
sion that they had not the power to
question or deprive any Senator of the
right to sit during the trial.
Speaker Elliott then opened the case
for the prosecution in an elaborate ar
gument, stated the charges against
the accused, and the law and the evil
dence upon which they proposed to srs-
tain them. The court then adjourned
to y. m. tomorrow. j. K. B. g
