meetings in the Academy of Music

occupied by struggling mass of human

presented by DR.. Smith, ex-moderator of
the Northern assembly, and when DR.. Smith
said in welcoming the Southern guests that

that the brethren from the South had

THE ATTORNEY GENERAL.

During the course of his remarks in
the Supreme Court yesterday morning
Attorney General Ashford, referring to
the case Of the King vs.. w. S. ! ne,
said "that the defendant was acquitted
by jury of his creditors" 1t would
have been considered unprofessonal for
lawyer at the bar to have made such
a remark, to say the least, but that the
Attorney General of the Kingdom
should have made such a statement in
Court must be regretted by every one
in favor of good government. If Attor
ney General Ashford's statements were
true, they wauld be injudicious. Being
untrue they are mischievOus, and only
show that he is totally unfit to be at the
head of the law department and adviser
of any Government, much less very
weak one. The statement was an in
suit to the jury, and no right-minded
man can think otherwise.
