The Andrews Case and the State
Steal.

There is one point in the brief Of the
lawyers who acted as the counsel of Ex-City
Marshall Andrews, in the case lately before
the Supreme Court, which the Argus in its
harum-scarum advocacy of the Ex-Marshaps
pretensions has trangely neglected to urge.
1t is all the more significant because al least
one Of the lawyers who signed the brief has
good standing in the Democratic party.
This ought to secure the particular atten-
ton of the Argus and of all Democrats to
the opinion that is expressed concerning a
somewhat famous episode in the political
history of the State. The passage to which
reference is made, and we commend it
to the thoughtful attention of the men,
bers of the several Democratic and Green
back conventions which are to meet here to-
day, is this.
This honorable court (the Supreme Court of
Maine) has had recent occasion to rebe even erec-
tire and legislative aSupaoR and has not hesicated
to advance to the extreme verge Of its constitutional
powers to prevent the framing Of iniquity into lac
60 Me-, 58o-612.) OF course the magnitude of the
interests Immediately affected in this case is insig
nifcant as compared with the memorable affair
which on that occasion demanded and received Judi.
cial nterpostion But the principal involved is in
many respects not dissimiar. A political scheme to
capture the control of the police department of a
city is mere worthy of countenance by this Hon
orable Court than the attempt to steal the gocern
nsent Of a state.
Bearing in mind what river of objurga-
ton the Argus has poured out concerning
the removal of Andrews, and the attitude
of that paper and most Of the supporters of
Andrews in defense of the monstrous po-
litieal fraud to which allusion is made in the
passage quoted, aud the abuse which these
parties have heaped npon the Supreme
courr; eorn Tor taking cognIzance or the mat
ter and for its action, there is something ex-
quisitely comical in this appeal to the court
to look upon the removal of an incompetent
officer for cause, as Sin many respects not
dissimilar'' to that former attempt to frame
iniquity into law that executive and leg
islative usurpation,' to wit, ''the attempt to
steal the government of Statep'
Was it worth while for the Argus and the
Democratic party TO undertake the vindca-
ton of Andrews at the cost of this humilia-
tionP 1t would almost seem as if Judge
Goddard, in view Of the kindness of the Ar
gus to him on many occasions, ought to have
guarded it from this thrust. We know that
much has to be pardoned to the exigencies of
attolnies arguing desperate case; but this
is SO cruel, such an absolute and irr4rieva-
BILE 'sgive away that we think the Demo
cratic party has right to say The necessity
did not justify it, the sacrifice was out Of
proportion to the advantage to be gained.

few days ago attention was called to the
fact that one of the lee 'urers at the Emerson
Symposium at Concord, Mass, this summer
would be NJ. Rene de Poyen Belesle of this
city. M. de Poyen's lecture, which was in
the French language, was read last Wednes
day evening, aud it is a mark of the favor
with which it was regarded that the Boston
Advertiser published the next morning a
very full translation of of it. 1t was devot-
ed to a consideration OF Emerson's quality as
a poet, a philosopher and reformer. The
lecturer showed not only that he had been a
careful and loving student of Emerson S
works, but that he had also considered with
attention what had been written about him
by others, and that he was able both to agree
and to differ with nice discrimination and
independent Judgment We should be glad,
if it were practicable, to reproduce in the
PRESS, the Advertisers report of this inter
esting lecture. M. de Poyen is to continue
resident of Portland and will give instruc-
ton in the French language aud literature.
for which we are assured he has superior
qualifications.
