THE BEAcoN.s ANGRY GRIEF.

Until last Saturday evening no one
supposed that the Wichits .eacon had
more than passing regard tor Judge
| Henry T.. Slu-s. L. is true he is a no.
bic man and nude an excellent officer;
that he is re- pec,ei by all Glasses OF
| people except criminals, and he il
feared by them; that he POSSESSES the
regard and confidence OF his fellow
| citizens as few men do in his district,
but no man could believe that hs. ha
eukindled in III, breast of the Beacon
as deep aud abiding love as lis grief al
hi resignation o! he jadyrshii would
irdicafe.
The Beacon lot only grievcs
it mourus with inourniuin-ss that
precludes the possibility OF comfort.
Its grief i not of the mud, pa ssionles-
type which brood. over sorrow il.
some retired spot, eXpeuding itself in
secret weeping, but with that vigor-
Gus, angry, pr"iane, darb-yOu-Fll-gei-
even kind, which, while il lasts. j.
frightful 10 behold, but which has
never yet been known 10 prove fatal.
Ii seems 10 be in excellent mood 10
follow the Hibernian Injunction .'hit a
head whenever you find IT," AID pro-
ceeds to the indi-criiniuste use of its
"shelaliy" Oh Governor Martin, Judge
>luss, aud I. d. Wall, who has been
appointed to succeed Mr.. S uss ard
Marsh Murdock. Even the Eagle
gets It's feathers pulled, not for any
thing it has said or done, but becau-e
it did not scream loud enough TO pre-
vent Mr.. Siu,s' resignation aud Mr..
Walls appointment. Indeed we suspecr
that the Beacon did not mourn halt
enough over the death of Mr.. Hen
bricks, or it would not have near So
much griei TO expend over q little a.
fair like this. In its rage. like the
msddenei reptile that sinks Its fang.
in its own flesh, it proceeds TO Apply
the boot vigorously TO lis own person
and TO the community N general
Speaking of the necessity of compeIi-
ing Mr.. Wall 10 resign before he has
fairly entered upon his duties it SAYS:
As it il, with all its deadly features,
the people should compel him 10 re-
sign, rad ihey should teach all these
conspirators a lesson they will fear il
they will not profit by. Ii they do not,
then woe To cur future. We are "a
race of s!avcs-wiliing slaves; lhe most
abhOrrei and the lowest created
things" Ra's.
What has Mr.. Wall done that he
need be SO deeply cxecrated? lie has
sought, and successfully too, sn APP
poihtment to a position for which he
believes himself qualified, and his
opinions in ihis respect are endorsed
by Il large III joriiy OF the attorney
of both kinguian and Sedg " lex c,uu-
ties. Ii that WAS 4 crime punishable |
