THE NINTH MASSACHUSETTS.
Indignant DcnSais Of BAD Conduct NJ
Richmond and Yorktown.

The Ninth M9 ssachusctts Regiment AR
rived here this morning at O'Clock and
remained over all day. In the forenoon
thcy paraded tie principal streets, making
me display, and this afternoon will give
drlll Mt the east front of the Capitol The
regiment win leave for Boston this even
ing. The officers and men arc very indig-
nant at Che reports Of their conduct in
richmond and in camp ut Yorktown,
which they say were all falsely
cxagker9 ted. According to their
statement the regiment was insultcd in
RiohTond by roughs, who called them
d. II yankees and ridiculcd their blue
uniform. One or two of the members
nay have gotten drunk there and caused a
little row, but the regiment had nothing
whatever to do with 1t. Owing to the
treatment they had received the regiment
did not stop in Richmond on their return,
and as the train went through the city ut
full speed, it was saluted with n
shower of stones, but luckily no one was
injured. A number of negroes who had
gone with them to camp from Richmond
jumped Off the train while in motion, and
are believed to he hurt. The regiment has
conducted itself properly while in this
city.
What tIsc Officers Say.
'sIhNN anu lsitNts VI wv
Ninth Massachusetts,, in conversation with
THE CRITIC to-day, said that they were
astonished at the reports published about
them and their conduct These reports first
appeared, they understand, in the New
York Graphic from its vcracious Yorktown
correspondent. Major Grady says that they
spent hut three hours in Richmond and
that the white residents of that city seemed
very cool toward them This might have
been caused by the fact that many of his
soldiois coming from the far North, had
never seen the genuine darby in his contra
band state, and found it more fun than the
minstrels in intermingling with the
negroes of the city and amusing themselves
in connection with them. AS to the rumor
that Governor Long, of Massachusetts, pro-
posed TOT nnul the commissions of the officers
of the Ninth, he said it was nonsense. He
said he had been with the Governor, wh0
was intensely pleased and satisfied with his
men, and had sent home high commenda
tiGps OF their discipline and bearing, and
, the people of Boston had appropriated Il
sum of money to tender them banquet on
their return. The Ninth Massachusetts
claims to have been the best drilled
regiment at Yorktown, and they say
that the regular army officers al
are of the opinion that thc $1,000 vast
should Le awarded them, and that the state
ment that the New Jersey regiment has re-
ceivcd the prize is untrue as they are en-
titled to it and expect that it will bt

In his recent Guildhan speech Mr.. Gladstone
hnequiyOcaly committed himself to the doctrine
OF local self-gOvernment In Ireland He said he
would rejoice at the adoption OF any system OF
home rule for that country that would not impair
the supremacy OF the imperial government Now.
why should the leaders of the land league take
the premier at his word, and employ the power
ful organization they have effected In establishing
home rule? Why not, for a time at least, abandon
the land agitation and inscribe local sef-govern-
ment upon their banners9 With home rule as
shibboleth, and Mr.. Gladstone's promise to foster
and encourage 1t, the land league might, in a
shorter period than such political charges are
usually brought about, acquire for Ireland the
right to regulate her domestic affairs in egisla-
ture or parliament OF her own choosing. Then the
land question could be dealt with by representa-
tfves direct from the people and familiar with
their wants and needs.
The most ardent friend of the league must see
that the letter of Archbishop Croke, protesting
against the mo rent policy enunciated by Mr..
Parnell and his imprisoned associates, Will impair
the efficiency OF the organization in its present
work. The archbishop takes direct issue with the
league leaders, and his advice will, doubt, COM
mand respectful attention. He has never been
backward or timid in asserting and defending the
people must be united in sentiment and purpose in
order TO accomplish any political reform that will
benefit them as a whole. A movement having for
its object system of home rule that would recog-
nhe and acknowledge the supremacy OF the Brit
ish government would doubtless command the
support OF three-fOurthS OF the people

very presence in a court room, when pre-
siding on the trial of an issue of life o,

Judge Cox is not to blame for not having
that Unborn power of control which is so
rare. He comes of a large family, his
father having been an eminent lawyer;
and he is Judge of good attachments
painstaking and impartial and it is not
right to denounce him because the trial o.
