The Cru.ndc Agninst Mr.. Damn.

The fuss which Mr.. BEACH LAWRENCE
and Nv b. +. BrrLrR have raised against
the continuation of Mr. r. II. DANA, Jr.,
as Minister to England, is ridiculous aud
contemptible
BUTLER opposes DANA because he ran
against him for Congress: and LAWRENCE
because the WHEATON fainily employed
him to edit WHEAToN's work on intcrna-
tional law, function of which Mr.. LAW
RENEE desired to have monopoly. Yet
LAWRENCE and BUTLER, with their bat
tered characters. appear to fnd allies in
the Senate's Committee OH Foreign Rela-
tions.
The only one of these two worthless who
can alege any ground whatever for his
attack is Mr. LAWRENCE, aud his charge is
that from his edition OF Wheaton" Mr.
DANA has plagiarized certain foot notes.
This accusation has long been before
the public. who have regarded II with
scorn and IT has been substantially ex-
ploded in the United States Court in
Massachusetts,, where IL was tried ana dis
posed OF. That court found that in DANA's
Wheaton very small number OF foot
notes. four or FIVE, we believe, mere
references to authorities on points in
the text, and not one Of them express
ing any opinion or containing any peculiar
learning. had been literally copied from
the foot notes OF LAwRESCr's Wheaton"
These foot notes, unimportant rs they
were, the Court directed should be changed
in future editions of Mr. DANA's work 4:
but II secuted the demand of Mr.. Law
RENEE that the actual edition which con-
tanned those foot notes should be sup
| pressed, allowing the sale to go on, because
| there was nothing in those foot notes OF
| any special account, aud nothing in their
use 10y MIR. DANA that could justly be
| called plagiarism.
| The use even of these half dozen refer
ences was the result Of accident. When
Mr.. DANA had completed his book, cling
broken in health and obliged 30 take Il for

MUND T. DANA, IA competent lawyer, since
deceased. the charge Of carryingit through
the press, Informing him that while no nd
ditions or changes in the text We're neces-
sary, some simple references to authorities
must be Inserted in their proper places.
In performing this duty. Mr.. EDMUND T..
! DANA took these few references from Mr..
LAwRENcEs book. but not supposing that
thevcould he regarded rs private property
of that gentleman, he printed them with
out deemiug il necessary TO change their

affair

Tine adverse report on the petition OF

hb ion of dom as to deserve any par
tioular commcudation for it is SO clearly
the dictate of reason that ii IL difficult to
imag no how person of common sense

Why Mr.. PARTON should have supposed
that the state would make departure
from its loug-settled policy, merely to aC-
commodute his idosyncmsies, we do not
understand. The argumentative part OF
his petition was particularly weak. He
had committed his offence in utter igno-
rance Of the law, he pleaded with refresh
ing simplicity. Had he never learned the
time-honored axiom, ignorance excuses no
one? Furthermore he urged, the mar
riage could not now be undoue. Here he
was far wide OF the mark. The State has
no care 10 undo things which its cstab-
lishod laws declare null and void.
MI PARTON's entire petition was silly
production. 1t disclosed no cause why he
should be permitted to marry his step
daughter that does not apply to any
widower who happens to have rs Il step
daughter bright and pretty girl. They
were both attached to a child, of which
they have the care; but widower and his
graudmothcrm may both he very fond OF the

When we heard recently from Washing

Ring and Detective y ETTLEsnIP Of the same had
been converted 20 religion. we announced our
readiness to test the genuincness Of their CON
version by their subsequent conduct respecting
tho safe-burglary conspiracy. II prompt, full,
and truthful confession Of their guilt IN that dark
and treacherous business should follow their
claim OF having repented and turned froul their
evil ways, such confession would be taken IN
evidence Of their regeneration; but otherwise
should have further trouble with them.
when, therefore. DICK lIARRINGToN came out
the other day with the allegation that he bad
nothing TO confess about the safc-burglary
conspiracy, which he managed from tho inside,
and spoke in a nippant, crafty way about the
whole affair. we felt that his religion wus not at
ali the proper thing, and that he would have to
DO set back for the present. But we have more
hone of the other man. NETTLEsHfP, though he
has not taken to preaching. like HARniNGroN.
Ilia confession Is now In tho bands of a commit
tee Of Congress, and he says he felt that, as a
man converted to religion, he must clear his
conscience Of the sin OF cOnccalng his knowl-
edge OF the safe burglary. 1t ia reported that
his confession goes back TO the very first step in
! the safe burglary, and details all subsequent
ones with the greatest minuteness. In giving
