MAJOR BURKE AND BUTLER.

Major Burke's refusal to submit to the
badgerng OF Butler has elected the genera al
approval OF the Northern press, The New
York World makes it the occasion Of some
very Just animadversions upon the custom,
TOO long maintained in our courts Of justice,
OF turning witnesses over to lawyers to be
badgerad and browbeaten into unintentional
contradiction. Speaking OF Major Burke 8
action in refusing to submit to Buffers insult
n ing innuendo, the World says:
Whenever q witness asserts his right to
tell story as he understands it and insists
ypon being treated as o gentleman he is sure
Of the sympathy Of the whole community.
a It is one of the defects of our system OF adj
ministering justice that trial is often q con-
spiraCy to prevent the man who swears to
tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing
but The truth from keeping his oath. The
lawyer Of the party who introduces the wit
ness does not permit HIM to relate the facts
as he remembers them, but draws out by q
series Of sklIfu questions such a statement
Us may best serve the interests OF his client.
The lawyer of the opposing party aims Id
Che course OF his cross-eXamlnatlon to OBJ
iiterate the effect of the testimony
as first given and bring out points that tell
for his own side In each case the purpose OF
the counsel is to distort the truth, and an
honest but nervous witness often feels after
descending from the stand, as il he had been
w 3Gnaae TO commit perjury Ill Splle u ullilStIl
OF course there arc many Irrelevant matters
that Ignorant witnesses introduce into q mar
rative, IL allowed to proceed in their own
fashion, and the tendency to give rumors for
facts and opinions for the things about which
they are formed must be checked: but law
yeIs as officers of the court ought not to be
allowed to exercise their ingenuity in subSti-
tuting falsehood for the truth as they some
Simes do, suppressing part OF the truth as
they do nearly always, and introducing mat
ter that is superiluous to the truth as they
invariably do.
This is every word true, and the abuses
which the World speaks of have grown TO
such an extent that the more conscientious a
man is the more he breads the witness stand,
and the perversion of his testimony to suit
the ends of his questioners.
With the exception OF Butler, whose con-
duct on many occasions has been most often
sive the treatment of witnesses before the
Potter committee has been exceptionally
courteous and considerable. Buffers conduct
towards Major Burke was simply scandalOus,
and that gentleman has the approval OF all
seIf-respecting men in the defense he made Of
his personal dignity. As matter of common
sense Buffers suspicion that Major Burke
had In his possession any written contract,
drawn up, signed and sealed by such men as
Sherman, Garfield and Foster, was extremely
silly, and his intimation that Major Burke
was not telling the truth about it was q gross
and gratutous insult, and he merited the re-
buke he got for the imputation.

Some one has made the astonishing dis
covery, says an exchange, that Grant has eS-
patrated himself, and is no longer citizen
Of the United States It is contended that
he, "by his election or appointment by the
laws of Great Britain as freebooter OF the
city of London, and by his acceptance of the
same, became virtually subject of Queen
Victoria, and ceased to be a citizen of the
United States. Consequently he is not eligi-
bic to any office in this republic until he has
passed the number Of years, after his return
to the country, required for naturalization.
He is therefore debarred from the talked-of
candidacy for the next Presidency, il not for
all succeeding ones"
It is not likely that Grant will be candi-
date for the Presidency again, but one need
not go 50 lar to hunt Il reason for it. There
are q number of much palmer and more prac-
tical ones than this for his not becoming a
candidate
