The Grand Jury and Nelson-A Suggestion

To the Editor of The Times:
Sir,-ln view OF the implied
censure in the editorial of to-
days Times OF the grand pury
for its failure TO indict Nelson, il
is respectfully suggested, inasmuch as the
mover of resolution is always chair
man. that the writer of the editorial
in question be made foreman If the next
grand jury, because then we may be
sure that further investigation may
satisfy" the "ninety-nine hundredths OF
our population" who now. according TO
The Times, are deeply exercised on the
subject, even though indictment may not
result in conviction.
But for the benefit Of the ninety-nine
hundredths 60. It is hereby authoritative
ly stated that the grand jury DID careful
ly investigate the Nelson case but could
get no evidence of fraudulent intent,
and therefore could not, whatever may
have been the individual opinions of
the grand jury, find an indictment except
on general principles. but the grand jury
did not think general principles" good
grounds for an Indictment, I'm which, pro-
badly II was mistaken. While the grand
jury was investigating, Cardwell was out
of town, the bank officers knew of no
collision or fraudulent intent and as the
grand jury could not very well investl-
gate Nelson himself in order 10 indict
him. and moreover as the Common
wealth's attorney advised the grand jury
that he did not see how an indictment
could lie, therefore there was nothing
left for the grand jury but 10 act as IL
did. namely, indict Cardwell, and not
indict Nelson.
The less one knows. the more confident
we generally are; therefore. as the editor
of The Times knows nothing whatever
OF the facts of this case" and as the
'nlnety-nine hundredths" are equally well
Informed, IL is not expected that the
above recital will satisfy either. There
fore, in order to guard against similar
crimes In the future" the suggestion is
respectfully repeated that the author OF
the editorial be made foreman of the
next, or. better still. OF "A special grand
jury His Honor. the judge Of the Hus-
tings Court, like Barkis. is doubtless
willing. Il.

have the following questions clearly and
distinctly answered-to-wit:
LIST. How much money did Nelson draw
from the bank during the time he was
making overdrafts?
I'd. Give each check tthe size OF III
that he drew during that time. and the
date OF It?
Sd. What deposits did he make during
that period with the date OF each?
4th. What are Nelson's re2uted means
and what capital has he in his business
as nearly as can be ascertained?
We note with interest that our CORE
spondent is able TO state what action the
grind jury took "authorltativsly." He
can, therefore. give us the information
that is wanted. We ask him to state
whether or not the grand jury bad each
OF the four questions stated above an
swercd. and II so, we ask him to state
further what the answer to each lues-
ton was.
The grand jury may not have been able
10 infer a fraudulent intent from acts
and circumstances, but there are many
other persons who can.

ing that construction. And II certain
individuals were satisfied in 1850 that the
Constitution, as II was adopted seventy
five wears before. accorded the right OF
secession to the States, how could they
be converted TO a different view OF the
construction II should bear by the phys
zeal defeat they received? 1t Is absolute
nonsense for Northern men to expect
Confederate soldiers to entertain dit-
ferent view of the right OF secession from
what they entertained during the war.
The Constitution, as il was framed ana
adopted, plainly contemplated the right
of secession in state. We all down here
believed this TO be so. and 1t is Impossible
that our views Of the matter could be
changed by knocks on our heads.
We have abandoned the right OF seces-
sion and have agreed that We Will never
assert II again. That is all any Northern
man should expect Of Us. That preserves
to us our self-respect, whilst We become
perfectly loyal citizens of the restored
Union But II we should 20 around pro-
Tossing that the drubbing we received
did the unnatural thing of changing our
opinion upon an important constitutional
question, we should simply proclaim
ourselves hypocrites AM sneaks. whose
professed loyalty 10 the restored Union
would he false and worthless.

ANOTHER NoRTHERNERN's FOLLY.

The Lewiston Evening Journal. a paper
owned and edited by Congressman Ding
ley. of Maine had the following to say
recently about the way the old Confed-
crates speak of the Lost Cause:
"That the people of Northern cities are
competing with one another for the priv
ilcge of dining and wining the ex-Con-
federatcs shows that the war is over:
bat the recent speeches of ex-Confederate
officers in the South show that although
the war is over. ex-Confederate leaders
believe they fought for what they ought
to have had The fatted calf was Killed
to banquet the prodgll. but killing veal
10 feed impenitent sinners Is one step
ahead Of the parable. In getting away
from the Elder Brother, II is to be
hoped we shall not prolong the younger
brothers spree"
We know nothing more silly than this
perpetual claim from narrow-minded
Northern men that Confederate soldiers
should say they now believe that they
were wrong in their fight. The Confed-
crate soldier who says such a thing must
either stulufy himself. or he is a dis
honest man.
They believe their States had the right
TO secede from the Union when they
uere fighting 10 maintain the secession
that was made. and what has occurred
since that could possibly change their
opinion? They were conquered by force OF
arms. and compelled TO relinquish seces-
sion. But how could that act OF con-
quest have any bearing on the way a
Constitution. established seventy-five
years before the conquest, should be in
terpreted? If the correct construction
