told that the prosecution argument
was that the service must be pro-
ductlYe that was not so. The law
provided the manner in which con-
tracts should be awarded, and the
OBJECT Of it was to have fair play.
by the method Brady adopted this
law was trampled under foot. Let
chere be no tuTbid appeals to the
jury; no flatulent fusilades, no
breezy Verbosity uttered for the
purpose sweeping the jury away
from the performance of its duty. He
had not been here to hear
all law uttered by defense: but
ne mad read it, and such law he
never saw before. If he had TO
practice it, he would quit the prac-
tlce. This was a prosecution for
conspiracy; to convict a man of
conspiracy Was a very different
thing. A case of conspiracy was
made up OF here a little and there a
little, and like the snow, it was as
high as the mountain ana glittered
all palpably as the Whiteness of the
snow. 1t was not always the happy
fortune OF the prosecution 10 catch

Lambs, lambs Like the Turks, who
went to Tangiers and murdered
everybody. Who was John W..
Dorsey? a tinsmith! tinsmithl
tinsmith! from Vermont. What
did he know about star service in
the far west? Who was Stephen w.
Dorsey? Originally he was house
painter and went from pal ting to
politics. He was called Senator
Dorsey and Brady General Brady.
We have no senators and no gem
erals here, continued the attorney
general, I'VE are all men latter
glance around court ROOM men and
women. ALI that is done to give arti-
fetal importance to these men ;When
you come into a court of Justice
take away your generals and epau-
lettes. In the course of his remarks
The attorney general referred to
Brady as mail contractor; but
stopping himself, said: No; not a
mail contractor, but a mail eX-
pender." Mr.. Ingers0ll had told the
jury how the crystal fitted, and how
lies would not fit; and IngersOll
ought to know. He had been deal
ing with them for those people. He
meant nothing personal to Inger-
soil. How had these men come to-
gether from all parts of cOun-
try? Was it divine Providence b?
No. Their object was conceived in
corruption and executed in the same
wicked spirit. Their object was

feTring to the statement made by
Boone, that the books of the COLI
Germ were kept on the graveyard
principle, he SAID that that was
| Synonymous with star route prinCi-
pies. Down among the dea6 Haaaa.n.
Down among the dead men. 1t were
better that the defendants should
hide themselves In the peniten;iary
than to face the Odium which must
follow them through life. In ancient
Assyrla it as a custom when man
and a woman were detected in adul-
terry, to kill the woman and chain
her dead and fostering body
to the man; and he went about
crying, OH wretched man that
am Who Will deliver me from the
body of this death? Acquit these
men, and the fostering body of their
atUociOuS crime committed against
the whole community would hang
round their necks and they would
cry out, "Ol wretched man that
am who will deliver me from the
body of this deaLhp' The jury must
give Stephen w. Dorsey a certificate
that the charges were not true; but
he knew and every one knew that
the body Of that death would
hang round him while life lasted.
Jury had been told that verdict of
guilty would bring desolatiOn and
sorrow, and tears and Wretchedness
to hOnOred people. The jury had
heard lngersOll to-day, with an i'm
pressiveness which drew tears to
the eyes of many, depict the horrors
and terrOrS which hung round these
people, and while this was going on,
whenever there was ribald or a joke,
Brady sat laughing right at the door
of the penitertiary. He could
sit and laugh at riboldry and Jokes.
He had the hide a rhinOcerOes,
When Ingersol burst forth in his
great perOrtation, Minor put
his hands to his face, and
Vale too, and oh! how they
blubberedl but when it was all over
they got up and not a tear was to be
seen. They laughed; laughed On
the edge of the penitentiary; Brady
had laughed too, when under the
charge of having violated his sacred
duty. The encouragement wound
up his days address with a legal
argument to the court as to the quail
ity of the evidence which went to
prove a conspiracy and dwelt briefly
upon the difficulty of proving it by
positive and direct testimony. He
stated that he would close his al
dress tomorrow.
