for coRtraband act of such little value to
them? Reposing confidence in an en-
ploye, how easy it would have been for
him to have interjected few figures too
immaterial to have attracted observation
or affected results. Littlefeld seems to
have been heeled for any result He is, it
seems, the nephew of his uncle, and, as
in the civil wars of England, the father
sometimes look one side and the son the
other, that the estate might in no case of
confscation go out of the family, the
nephew in the Returning Board with an
uncle in the Democratic councils seems
to have effected a complete insurance
against heirs left out in the cold. To the
Democratic uncle he seems to have con-
fided the evidences Of his own shame, and
this fduciary deposited the distracted
document with a Democrat of high
political standing. If the Republicans
should succeed, the witness had dined
and wined with the Returning Board, and
avowed willingness almost an anxiety
to commit crime which they did not
require. If the Democracy got the upper
hand, the Democratic uncle had only to
present the evidences of the violation of
his oath, of the confidence of the board,
and he might claim compensation for his
| services.
While no one will attach Importance to
testimony SO mercenary and so insignif-

all parties. 1t is: to be more particular in

upon whom confidential positions may be
conferred 1t is, perhaps, impossible
that all appointments shall fall upon men
of perfect integrity, but there are some
trusts so confidential that it would be un.
pardonable to bestow them where treach.

The only object of headlining this Lit

We have rarely seen so much headline
about SO small and inconsequential a per-
sonage as that which heralds the testi-
mony of Littlefeld, clerk Of the Returning
Board. He alleges that he was requested
by member Of the board to commit
forgery, admits that he substituted figures
of his own for those of another, and that
be went into course Of diligent practice
in the ubiquitous art Of writing the names
Of other people.
In this he seems to have been but q
very swift amateur, and as he was not
asked to give any specimen Of his skin by
any member Of the Returning Board, can
only look for indemnity for his trouble in
some future exercise Of this accomplish
ment The readiness with which the Wit
ness would have gone to the Penitentiary
for personal act committed on the order
Of another displays low degree Of legal
intelligence. Had he met with Murphy
Or any other attorney he would have been
told murder or forgery are otfenaes which
can neither be committed nor expiated By
al agent.
