Senator Patterson Judge Hum
phrev's Decision,

A dispatch from Washington, un-
der date Of the 9Th inst, explains
itself, thus; Judge Humphreys, this
morning, delivered his opinion in the
matter of John ]. Pattersoi. relator
on writ of habeas corpus to be re-
leased from the warrant of arrest on
the requisition of the Governor OF
South Carolina The Judges opin-
ion was elaborate. He denied the
power of the State of South Caro-
lima to vacate Senator Patterson &
commission, which must continue un-
till constitutionally revoked, in pur-
suance of organic authority. II
could not be said that Senator Pat
terson was fugitive from justice, as
he was here in the discharge of off
cial duties, Like all other members OF
Congress, and, besides, he had acted
in the capacity of Senator years be
fore the present Indictment was
brought against him in the South
Carolina Court. The Judge conclud.
ed his opinion as follows:
Il think am bound to take judi
cial cognizance that party organiza-
ton is one thing and faction to de
stroy it is another. The most cruel
tyranny would be the application OF
the civil forms of law to the domi-
nance and triumph of the passions OF
a faction.
Il cannot reconcile it to my sense
of duty to give aid in placing mana
cles and handouts around and about
the individual citizen for the purpose
of surrendering him bound into the
hands of those who may not be dis
passionate enough to vindicate the
true right of the individual, or to
those who might be led by impas-
stoned appeals to a condition of mind
that could not resist. Zeal for the
correction of wrong has led to the
conviction OF the innocent.
1T is the duty of courts to sit
still, deliberate, and, with civil pro-
eedure, throw their protection in such
a direction as may curb and control
wayward action Let the man be re
marded to the body of which he is a
member. That body is legally, con-
stitutionally, morally, intellectually
capacitated to dispose of the ques-
tons involved, and to condemn or
acquit. 1 discharge him from the
arrest of the warrant for his extra
dition, and the same is hereby or
dered."
Senator Patterson was congratu-
lated on the result by his immediate
friends, and with them retired from
the courtroom.

The Pittsburg Presbytery on
Dancing.

At recent meeting Of the Pitts
burg Presbytery, Rev. DIR. Jennings
presented paper strongly condemning
promiscuous dancing, now on the in
crease, which he said demanded a
prompt aud effective check. A paper
was adopted as follows
Resolved, That in accordance with
the deliverance of the General Assem-
bly,, and previous act Of this Prssby-
tery, We express our deep sense of the
evil of promiscuous dancing and kin
dred amusements, as detrimental to the
influence of religion and the cultiva-
tion Of personal piety, and we call upon
our pastors and sessions to use all rea-
sonsble snd jbdicious efforts to abate
and remove the practice from among
eur people"

A well known lawyer of Dallar,
Texas, hitherto believed to be proof
against woman's charms, fell over
head and ears in love with Genevieve
Rodgers upon seeing her the first
time, acting in Maud Muller. He
did not wish to run the risk of a re-
fusal by writing a note soliciting an
interview, so he tried to bribe the
waiter who carried the actress S meals
to her room to let him fill that Office
only once, but all to no purpose
Miss Rogers left Dallas, ignorant of
the sad wreck she made.

PRESIDENT HAYES has shown his
hand enough to indicate the futility of
any attempts at reputation, either by
tue repeal Of the Resumption act or the
unlimited resumption of silver. We
wish we could be as sure that he would
stand By the labor Of the country with
the same firmness which be shows in
support of capital. The Ways aud
Means Committee is evidently bent on
a policy which will close every iron
mine, blow out every blast furnace, and
stop every mill in Pennsy ylvania, the
second State in the Union, and one
which has done more for its material
prosperity than any other. There is
now $500, ,0O0, 900 of capital irrevoca-
bly, locked up in the anthracite coal
mines and their railroads, which can
never pay the annual interest upon this
enormou. sum. The millions which
have been invested in the iron manu-
factures Of the State, with the promise
Of protection by the government, are
now almost unproduetive, and if the
tariff revision should be carried these
also will be buried past hope. We
might reconcile ourselves to this if it
were the loss of the few and the gain
of the many, but ii is not. The price
paid for iron represents almost entirely
money paid for labor, and Of every
dollar paid for foreign iron and steel
three quarters goes directly to foreign
labor. Iu ship building it is estimated
that a; least four ffths of the cost of a
vessel represents labor. Besides this,
experience has Taught US that free trade
has never given us cheaper metals
The lron.masters of Europe are quick
to see their advantage if We give them
a monopoly, and, with the furnaces of
Pennsylvania still, the price will be
kept as high as if the tariff was most
vigorous. We must be awake TO the
danger that threatens US, and lose no
opportunity to fight the strong con.bi-
nations that are trying to ruin US
North american.
