A Friendly Reproof of the President.
The best friends of Mr.. Hayes are panied
aud perplexed by his weak, vacillating and
inconsistent course on the great subject of
civil service reform. Like all men 10
power he has sycophants as well as friends
Sycophants play the lackey and flatter, but
real friends think it their duty to speak
the truth-some with blunt plainness, in
the hope of arresting his attention; others
| by iusinuatiOn and elaborate courtesy.
Mr.. Hayes must not make the mistake of
reckoning those who speak out faithfully
as his enemies. At all events he will not
make that mistake in the case Of so true
and tried friend as Mr.. George William
Curtis, who so eloquently defended him in
the Rochester convention. Mr.. Curtis is
the editor of HdTper'S Weekly, and in the
last number of that coDsiderate journal be
closes long leading article on the presi
dent with the following candid and manly
remarks
1t would be uncandid, however, not to STATE
| frankly that those who are most disposed to sup
port the administration have been disappointed
that its course at times to be both tmid ant
Inconsistent. Decision, vigor and courage al
ways inspiring aud 1t has been too often forgotten
by the administration that the strength of its sup
port is among those who are not especially politi
clans and who do not make themselves lOudl

But uncertainty and hesitation destroy that onl
chance. The same hrmness and vigor and rellauc

only ask courageous leadership.

Judge Humphrey.

IL IS commonly considered indecent TO
criticise the decision Of a Judge on the
ground that it is partisan in its character.
but the decision of Judge Humphreys in
the Patterson habedS corpus case is con
fessedly based upon political considera
tiOns, and cannot therefore be regarded rs
the unbiased statement of a jurist aiming
simply at justice. HE own course makes
1t Impossible to deal with him as an inter.
prefer ut the law whose decisions NAV not
be criticised save at the risk of undermin
ing that spirit of obedience which consti
tutes the stability of society. The decision
ct Judge Humphreys dismissing Senator
Patterson from arrest upon the reuuisition
Of Governor Hampton was a yoiupinous
document, written in ford STYLE, and
containing much irrelevant matter. 1t is
sale TO assume that the various reports of
its substance which the newspapers have
published represent its arguments fairly,
and that the transcript of its closing para.
graph sent by telegraph manifests its
spirit clearly. The liberation of Senator
Patterson is not justified on the ground
that his privilege as legislator protects
him, for the constitutional clause which
exempts senators and representatives
from arrest during session of congress
makes several explicit exceptions, one oil
which covers the case at issue. The con-
stltutlon says OF these officers: They shall
IN all cases, except treason, felony and
breach OF the peace, be privileged from
arrest during thoir attendance at the
session OF their respective houses, and in
going to and returning from the same. .

Patterson is indicted 10 South Carolina IS

fore comes under one of the above excep.
tlons, so that if his privilege as a legislator
were his only plea he would have to be
delivered up under section 2 of article 8 Of
the constitution, which provides as follows
"A person charged in any state with treason, fell
ony or other crime, who shall flee from justice ant
pc found In another state, shall, demand OF the
state from which he fled, be delivered up, to be re-
moved to the state having jurisdiction ofhe crime
To save Patterson in the face of suct
strong constitutional mandates it was nee
essary for Judge Humphreys to take tn,
novel position that the South Carolina
senator did not flee from Justice" As q
plain matter OF fact he took refuge in the
District of Columbia as fugitive before
the meeting of congress, but the iudg,
held that he was sent thither by the PEG
pie OF the state; that he was at Wash
ington attending to his duties; that hI
commission as senator autedated thl
requlsluon tor his return as a criminal
and that the commonwealth, having ono,
lntrusted him through its legislature will
