= WILMINGTON, DEL, MONDAY, APRIL 2l. 1879.

ces Of such events q would be deemed
1T illustration Of my, theme, - But
there is one described by . pdst more
than a thousand years before Homer,
and 80 thoroughly Homeric in form
that it is almost like q passage from
Illiad. 1t celebrates the adventures Of
Rameeses, the second, in the valley Of
the Orontes.
In his expedition against the Hittites
he had fallen into an ambush, and be-
ing deserted by all his followers, except
his charioteer, cut his way through
$500 chariots Of war and made his es.
cape. This may be history bat We may
we'll doubt It. None of US can doubt,
however, OF its being romantic. There
must bs something beside the chief act
or event or it cannot be romantic. There
was nothing romantic in Ale1ander's
visiting Diogenes to inquire how he
might serve him; but when the cynical
sage sought no royal boon but to stand
out Of his sunshine, it became quite ro-
mantle.
There was nothing romantic in the
overthrow Of Tarquin's rule, but when
1t clsuded itself with outrage Of Lucre-
tia and the fsigned madness of Junius
Brutus it took in an element Of romance.
There was nothing romantic in old Reg.
ulus rolling down hill in hogshead
pierced with sharp spikes, but there
was something grandly romantic in re-
sisting the tears Of wife and children
in order to keep faith with the hostages
who were bound for his return to Car
thage.
From these and countless number
of other cases we may learn that what
constitutes a chief factor in the romance
of history is sentiment. But tho ssnti-
ment is as real as the facts which in
spire it.
The speaker closed his theme with an
illustration, taking the eventful life Of
Roderigo, or Ruy Diaz, count Of Biver,
better known in Spanish history as the
Cid, for that purpose. This he render
ed doubly interesting by frequent quo
tatons from the poetry Of the day.

A TEST CASE
To be Made OF the Suit Pending
In st. Louis Court, IN whtcA is
IuvSIved the Right 81 a Court
to seGL1asG the Production
or Private kilograms.

81. LOUIS, March 24.-Mr. Brown, mana
ger of the Western Union telegraph office,
instead of appearing before the grand jury
this morning with the dispatches called fer
by the subpoena duces tecuna, served upon
hi n Saturday, went directly before the crimi-
nal court, with his attorneys, Messrs. Allen
and Lodge, the latter of whom stated at
length the reasons why Mr.. Brown could not
produce the dispatches demanded. The
court then asked Mr.. Brown what he would
do in case that one or more of the parties
concerned consented to have their kilograms
produced, and stated that DO Aad received
a lettCE from Uoyernor Phelps saying that he
was willing that any telegraph office should
present to the grand jury any dispatches he
had sent TO either Mr.. Nidlett or Mr.. Wake
field, Mr.. Brown replied thai under the
rule OF the telegraph company Governor
Phelps or any other sender of kilograms
could obtain his dispatches on personal ap-
plication or by request written over his own
signature. Judge LaughEn then continued
tue case till Friday, when he will hear argu-
ment On both sides, In a conversation
the Judge said that be understood and ap-
preoiated the Importance of the case, recog-
nized the wide attention IT would attract, and
if the telegraph company desired to make it
test case he would not commit Mr.. Brown
to Jail, but if it became necessary II the
progress of the case 10 infllct punishment
upon HIM it would be merely nominal.
The petition of Mr.. Brown to vacate the
order authorizing the subpoena d4ceS tecunr,
and to recall the subpoena presented IN the
criminal court to-day, sets forth, as reasons
why he should not and cannot produce the
kilograms demanded, that he Is simply a ser
want of the company and has no authority to
deliver the dispatches, but on the contrary
has been instructed by his superior officers
not to produce or testify as to possession by
the company OF such kilograms as are referred
to in the subpoena; that as it is not certainly
known that such kilograms as are demanded
are in possession of the company the sub
pena is rather q search warrant and the pro-
cess Inquisitorial, not Judicial; that the tele-
graph company is protected from such inter
ference with its messages by the public policy
which lies at the bottom of the fourth amend
ment to the Federal constitution, and of sec
ton IL, article l., of the bill OF rights
of the State of Missouri, 1t also claims that
| the petitioner would render himself liable to
| criminal and civil prosecution under the laws
Of this State should he obey the subpoena; re-
fers to Judge Cooley's article in the American
Lac Register, of February last, IN regard to
this subject, AMI disGlaims any object, pur-
pose or motive on the part of the petitioner
IN presenting the petition other than to per-
form his duty to his employers, hls country,
