FIFTY YEARS AGO
IN The STAR

The organ grinders of Washington who
were under criticism half a century ago
as nuisance we're not

Meet; The Star of October IS,
1853, appears the following
communication from one who signed him.
self Justice:
Il was much grieved few days since
to find in The Star an undeserved attack
upon a very innocent. unoffending and
frierdless class of our communicative poor
organ grinders. Instead of being nuisances
they are positively public benefactcrs and
exercise no small influence ir refining and
hun1anizing the masses in our towns and
cities Music, be it ever so bad, never
yet depraved or corrupted those who
heard it. 1t is one of the great agencies
in preserving the morals of society. Who
ever heard of crime being committed
within the sound of the notes even of the
much abused organ? We hope that the
deserved influence of The Star Will not
be used to prosecute class of poor devils
who. while they may not add to the
material prosperity of our city, yet DO GER
tainly minister to the harmless grathca-
tion of a large class of the community.
AS to the organ grinders disturbing and
annoying the sick. it is one of those silly
accusations which might with more JUS
tice be made against carts, carriages and
omnibuses in the streets. or even ioud
talking. We would advise the croakers
whose ears are refined as TO De offend

necessity OF improving the facilities at

tablishment of night schools, now such
an important feature OF the educational
system of the District:

troduced into the lower board of the

taken i'll his case by certain residents of
Baltimore and an effort was made to
secure his pardon on the ground that he
was not guilty of the crime. Representa-
tons in his behalf were made to Presi-
dent Buchanan, who on the day set for
the execution granted respite Of two
weeks in order that he might more fully
examine into the merits of the appeal.
Barrett had been prepared for execution
and the news of the respite reached the
Jail only a short time before the hour
set Tie Presidents action evoked sig
nificant comment from residents of Wash

prevent the execution of the criminal
law here. At the expiration of the two
weeks President Buchanan granted to
Barrett a Communication of sentence to i'm
prisonment for life.

Market noted in the news columns
rr.. of The Star of October %,
1858, reporting the actions Of
the common council of Washington:
"Mr. Jones offered an amendment Ito a
bill regulating the markets of Washing
toni making it penal offense for per-
sons to combine to regulate the market
prices, and making it the duty of the
chief of police to detail officers to at
tend at the market and assist in the
enforcement Of the regulations. Here a
very fiery discussion occurred between
Mr.. Wallace of the fifth ward and Mr..
Orme of the second the subject Of which
at first appeared to be the cause of the
democra tic defeat in Pennsylvania. 1t
was very difficult for us to discover how
forestalling the market was connected
with that event. But in the hubbub OF
causes mentioned we thought we heard
the remark that a uniformed police run
ing through the market and watching
every man that sold for pound of butter
a little less than pound would make any
administration unpopular The gentleman
from the fifth ward let go the hold on
the Pennsylvania subject and took a
fresh one by inquiring who the gentle
man from the second ward voted for at
the last mayors election. The reply was
for Col. Berret' At this point. the con-
test growing rather hot. a gentleman
discovered that all this had nothing to do
with the amendment of Mr.. Jones, and
the chair called to order. The question
was put in form, the amendment was
agreed to and the bill was passed"
