Com plaint was made that General Rochester was disqualified by being an important witness against Colonel Morrow at the court of in quiry. This objection was sustained, and General Rochester excused. Motion was then made to relieve General Schofeld for the reason that he was regarded as prejudiced against Swain on account of his severe com ments on the findings of the Fitz John Porter court of which General Schofeld was the reported author. Counsel also objected to General Schofeld as prejudiced against Swain on account of his intimate relations with President Garfield at the time of General Schofields transfer General Schoheld replied that he was not prejudiced and could decide the case fairly and the court martial declined to remove him. Counsel for Swain objected to General Terry as having always been hostile to Swain and having expressed derogatory opinions of him at the time of his appointment. General Terry was excused General Murray was challenged and the challenge overruled. Colonel Ayres was then questioned, but de- nying prejudice against the accused the ob- jections were not pressed.

He said that 8 great number of persons, and particularly young per sons, are governed by fashion in the formation of their opinions; others without any pains to form opinions for themselves at all allow their language and their outward actions to take their form and coloring from those with whom they associate. Many young man has been bad enough to say, not in his heart, but with his lips, F'There is no truth in reve- lation," because he hoped to gain eelat by the bold impiety of his assertion.

A large number of young men had organized for his protection under the name of the Protestant guards. This movement met with much opposition not only among the Romanists, but also among people of all shades of opinion and was pronounced by the city attorney to be an usurpation of the powers of the people. The guards made no other demonstration than that of marching without arms to the neighborhood of the church. Eighty policemen were on duty in the building, and although conflict was threatened, the meeting was carried to an orderly conclusion.
