to these charges, and General Sewell is
permitted 10 act with Mr.. Adams in
taking this testimony. Here ~ an OPP
portunity to expose the oltnlges com
mitted on our people in the name of
the government, which We cannot afford

The Decision
IN. o. Democrat. 10Th inst I

| n. o. Democrat. 18TH inst
The news that the Supreme Court
had released Tom Anderson spread
like wildtire throughout the com
lnunity yesterday morning, and it
was but a few minutes after the
reading of the decision was ended
before the whole city knew OF it.
Arepresentativeofth the Democrat,
seeing the unusual excitement the
publication of the fact occasioned,
made it his business to go among
the people of all classes and profess
sions to learn from them how the
decision was received.
If some great calamity had be
fallen our city there could not have
been greater feeling of surprise
and intense bitterness. Merchants,
with whom the reporter conNersed,
were not choice in their expressions
of displeasure at the result, whilst
many lawyers did not hesitate at
their disagreement with the Su-
preme Court i'll it's opinion. In fact,
with but few exceptions, this end
of Anderson's public career was
looked upon as being most ulltor-
tunate as a precedent in the future.
The subtle techltieaiity on which
the case s'went Oft" to use legal
phrase, was considered as most un.
satisfactory.
Some proposed that the patriot
Anderson, who was by the Court
released, ought to be compensated
for his incarceration SO unjustly q,
imposed upon him, whilst Others
suggested d mass meeting OF d ser-
enade.
On all sides the feeling was deep
and most excited, and hardly any
other topic was the subject of eoll.
