court to the remarks of O'Brien, standard au-
thority on courts.martial, upon tho articles of
war under which these charges are laid. The
eighty-third article enacts that any commits
stoned officer convicted before general court
martial Of conduct unbecoming an officer and
gentleman shall be dismissed from the service.
The wording of this article is very vague. The
most trivial deviations from rectitude may in
one point of view be deemed unbecominR an
officer and gentleman, as we'll as the most scan-
dalous and in famous conduct; yet the two acts
are very different criminally. We are forced,
then, to 60 beyond the letter Of the article in
order to arrive at the true meaning It is q
sound rule Of Interpretation that when the
words Of statute are of doubtful meaning
we should always resort to the intention with
which it was framed, ard the mischief which
it sought to remedy. When this intent can be
discovered it will throw moral light on the law,
and We are bound SO to interpret it as will best
conform to the motives which caused it enact
nIent.
In the present case the policy of the law il
plain. It is to preserve the character and
honor of the army by excluding from it disre-
putable characters who have shown themselves
unfit to associate with gentlemen, whose reten-
tion would have the effect of demoralizing the
character of a military community, and might
eventually criminate it. That this is the in
tention of the article is generally admitted,
and is evidenced by the peremptory sentence
of dismissal which the court must pronounce.
Conduct unbecoming an officer and gentleman,
in the intont Of the article, must therefore be
such conduct on the part of the accused as
shows him to have forfeited all claim to the
character of the gentleman. It is not intended
to apply to youthful follies or trivial deviations
from rectitude, such az the best men may oc-
casionally fall into in an unauarded Of excited
moment. If such were its meaning
there are few who might not at one
time or another be subjected to its severity
A mere hasty expression or act, done in the
heat of passion, and afterward repented of,
would insure dismissal, if malice or i'll will
should prompt prosecution. Such is not the
spirit OF the military code. On the contrary, it
seeks to heal all differences without resort TO Z

THE
Detroit Post & Tribune.
THE GREAT
Republican Paper of Michigan

The year 1880 will be marked by one of the
most important political campaigns in the his
tory OF this republic. In it Republication will
be charged with the championship OF financial
soundness and honor, and with the defence 0f
the cardinal doctrines OF Equal Rights and
National Supremacy. Under the banner thus in
scribed il will, with the spirit of 6i, resist re-
pudiatlon, tiatism, sectional aggression, shot
gun rule, conspiracles against the integrity OF
the ballo. box, and dsloyal ascendency in all
It's forms. In this important battle Republi-
canism must rely upon the press for the most
efficient service to its cause, and there is no
more certain way to organize victory" than by
insurng the circulation among the voters, now
and constantly, OF . sound political literature.
THE DETROIT Posi- AND TRIBUNE has an
established reputation as vigorous and able
Republican journal, which has for years up
held the causes Of genuinely free insttu tions
and OF rational fnace. 1t is also thorough
newspaper, perfectly equipped and complete in
all departments, with large resources, great
and growing circulation, and system of news
gathering which covers the entire field, local,
state, general and foreign. No paper has equal
ed it In rapid growth In the public coDfdsnce.
Its weekly is the largest published in the state,
and does not yield to any rival in interest and
in valle to its readers.
During 1880 It's news will be kept fresh and
accurate, commercial reports full and trust
worthy its miscellaneous selections abundant
and entertaining, it's tone pure and eevatlng,
and it's Republicansm sound and vigorous.
New features will be constantly added, aud
those which have alredy been established will
be enlarged and improved. Care will be exer-
cised to see that all Michigan interests are
properly upheld, and especial pains will be
taken to make its Agricultural Department and
the Letter-box OF constant practical use to its
patrons. 1t has received the testimony OF
hundreds OF Its readers that these Departments
alone have saved to them annually far more
than it's subscription price.
