Nearly all of our lawyers hied them off

Twelve degrees below zero was the

at 12 o'clock. It registered nine degrees
at daylight Saturday morning.

Absconded.
William Wilson, who lived near Ro-
sine, in tins county, was imiictcu uy uie
last grand jury for adultery with a widow
woman named Turner. Wilson confessed
judgment, and was fined 150. Wilson
ing a man of property, the sheriff con
fided in his word that he would return to
town on last Monday and pay his line.
The sheriff was called awav from town,
and left the necessary papers with the
:ounty clerk to fix matters up when Wil
son presented himself. But Wilson failed
to come to time. Instead of keeping
bis word with the too-confiding officer
who let him go home instead of locking
him in jail, he loaded up a wagon with
his household goods and the widow Tur
ner, and struck a bee-line for Tennessee.
tnrccnyofn Gnu.
Thursday night, at Beaver Dam, a
shotgun was stolen from the store-room
of Samuels & Barber. A man named
Allen, who resides in the neighborhood of
Cromwell, and who was in Beaver Dam
on a spree with two other men, offered to
sell a gun of -the description of the one
stolen to another party, that night or
next morning. This fact coming to the
ears of Samuels & Barber, they swore out
a warrant agaiont Allen, and he was ar
rested during the day Friday by town
marshal Blankeuship, of Beaver Dam.
His examining trial before police judge
Cooper, of that place, was to have been
held Saturday, but Allen's attorney, E
Walker, Esq., of our town, obtained a
change of venue to Hartford, and the ac
cused was brought to town late Saturday
evening and lodged in jail. He was
brought before Judge Gregory Monday,
but the party to whom he offered to sell
a gun, not being in court, the county tit-
torney asked a postponement for a couple
of days in older to secure his attendance.
flie request was granted, and the exam-
nation postponed until to-day. In lc
fault of bail the accused was remanded to
the custody of the jailer for safe keeping.
Why MM?
It docs seem to us that a community
abounding in literary talent like that of
Hartford, could xiford a literary society
or club. Our professional gentlemen arc
above the average intellectually, many of
them are capital debaters, and all of them
good writers. Wc have ninny lrulipa who
can and do write charmingly. Our young
pt-ople growing up arc studious in their
nclinations and habits. Literary culture
a saving grace to any people. Ignorance
is the hot-bed of crime and immorality.
Crime is almost unknown to cultivated in
tcllecte, nud vice scarcly ever ootaina a
hold on an enlightened mind. By form
ing ourselves into a society, to meet one
evening in each week, and debate ques
tiong, read sketches, essays, poems, eta,
we not only couldpass the time pleasant
but profitably. We would improve
and instruct each other, while we instruct
ed and amused, those who came to hear
us. Why not organize a Lyceum? What
say you, everybody?
Attempt to Burn ont of Jail.
Our county jail at present contains two
inmates Chinn, charged with horse
stealing, and Allen, accused of the larcenv
of a eun. Thcv occupied what used to
be known as the "debtor's room." Sunday,
about noon, Mrs. Wise, the wife of the
jailer, heard a noise in the room that
aroused a suspicion that the prisoners
were attempting to escape. She called
Mr. Wise's attention to the noise, and he
promptly repaired to the room occupied
by the two men, gun in hand, and de-
manded to know what was utt. Both
plead, ignorance of anything unusual,
Allen was standing at the r.iudow evi
dently on picket duty. Chinn was seated
at the fire and threw something he held
in his hand behind the grate as Mr. Wise
entered the apartment. The jailer asked
him what he 'was doing there. He replied,
"I was measurim: to see how far down
this hole goes." "What was you mcasur
ing it with?" "A straw," was the reply.
A quick glance around the room showed
him that a small iron rod that "had been
fattened on the ceiling for tome purpose
was missing. Presenting his gun at
Chinn, he demanded to know what it was
that he threw behind the lire. The pris
oner declared that it was nothinz. Mr.
Wise assured him that he would shoot
him if he did not produce whatever it was,
Chinn saw that the jailer would not bear
fooling with, and fished out the missin
rod of iron. An examination of the prem
ises disclosed the fact that the prisoners
were engaged in burning the casement,
with the heated iron, around where the
ends of the bars that secure the window
were fastened in it Of course he removed
everything from the room that could be
put to a like use, and left the prisoners to
dream of-tlic liberty they had begun work
mg to attain a little too early in the day.
If Andrew Johnson had trampled the
constitution under foot like Grant; if he

Andy Johnson on KhcritZai!.
Nashville Specia', 7th, t. tho N. T. Herald
I have just had a talk with ex-President
Johnson on the Louisiana imbroglio.
In response to interrogatories propounded
he said: "The action of General Phil.
Sheridan in ejecting the Louisiana Legis
lature is a piece of high handed usurpa
tion and as such it ought and will receive
the condemnation of the whole country.
It is subserving: civil to military power.
It is an unwarrantable and ungenerous
departure from the organic law upon
which our republican government U foun
ded. This is a matter to be looked upon
from our sectional standpoint, but entire
ly in a national light There is but one
grave fact staring us in the face, and that
is embraced in three word?, "unwarrant
able usurpation ol power." The false
step taken bv President Grant and Sheri
dan has no precedent in the history of our
Government " Sheridan attempted to
create the eame sort of devilment in Lou-
siana when I wa3 President, but I at
once cut short his untoward, unwise and
reckless proceeding by peremptorally re
moving him, by order of August 23, 1807,
from New Orleans to Fort Leavenworth,
and turned his command over to General
Hancock, who, on assuming command.
issued ft proclamation or paper which was
satisfactory to the whole country, proper
ly setting forth that the military was
subservient to the civil law, all of which
was a direct opposition toShendaim poli
cy, uencral Hancock a policy won tne
respect of the people, and with the de
parture of Sheridan all agitation ceased
and peace reigned. It was about the re
moval or blieridan that Uenertil Uratil
and mvself had a warm controversy, in
f-whlch -it vmt belicVeTTby tho whole
country that I got the better of him.
aly Cabinet were astounded to remove
Sheridan in the face of his then existing
military reputation. Some of them
thought it would never do to take such a
stand. The Cabinet was divided on the
pro)osition; but I told them that if it
turned the Government upside down
Sheridan nor any other General should
usurp the civil authority and trample it
ignomiously under foot There is a par
allel case to that which has just occurred
in Louisiana. It happened in Tennessee
n July, 18GG.
"Many of the members of the Legisla
ture here had absented themselves. Gen.
Holmes was induced to make applica
tion to .General Grant for authority to
aid in organizing the Lcgi&lature, which
was refused. 1 had no authority or pow
er whatever to interfere, the State having
exclusive jurisdiction over the matter,
that tc interfere .vould be a usurpation of
power,, placiifg the military above the
civil authorities, and in utter contempt
of the constitution and the laws. The
consequence was the affair was not Jong
alter sctted by tne state auinoriues, arm
there was no more trouble. People in
the South should act discreetly. Begard.
inc the Louisiana usurpation Mr. John
son said that Grant and Sheridan should
be temperate in all they say and do, and
the people should look to the North and
West lo come forward and aid in the res
toration of the government and constitu
tional authority. The whole country is
justly indignant, and Louisiana will have
her wrongs righted. '
SUKIllDAS's FORMlX. REMOVAL.
The following -is the dispatch referred
to regarding the removal of of Sheridan:
WAsmxfiTOV. August 2(3, 1807.
"Major General P. H. Sheridan will at
once turn over his present com man J to
the officer next m rank to himself and,
proceeding without delay to Fort Leaven
worth, Jvan., will relieve Alujor General
Hancock of the command of the Depart
ment of the Missouri.

The Old Story.
A Lexington correspondent of the Cour
ier-Jotirnal furnishes tho following resume
of the facts attending the murder of Shaw
at Lexington by young Uolloway. It will
be seen that it is hut a repetition of the
old story, that dissipation the throwing
away of good name, reputation, life itself
was at the bottom of it all. Holloway,
belonging to a wealthy family, and being
tried at Lexington, was, of course, admit
ted to bail.
The event of the last week has been the
shooting of Joseph Shaw, at the St. Nich
olas Hotel, by a young Holloway, and
his subsequent trial and recognition on a
bail-bond ol 0,UUU. with Col. K G. Bur
ton, of Richmond, and Mr. Bedinger, his
brother-in-law, and a Mr. Lync of Hen
dercon, as his sureties, to answer at the
next term of the Fayette Circuit Court.
The tragical death of Shaw, who, not
withstanding his faults, was a general
lavonle, because ot his amiable cliarac-
ter, his good-natured wit and bonhomie.
excited a feeling of mingled surprise and
regret. It was difficult to identify such a
character with the unfortunate actor in
such a scene. On the other hand, Robert
Uollowny, a young man not yet arrived
at the years of maturity, was not rashly
to be condemned, the examining trial
has taken place, and the facts lully elic
ited. It is the old story in a new guise,
Women and wine did the mischief.
Both young men, it would seem, became
victims to the fascinations and allurements
of a scarlet woman calling herself Fran
kic Stetson, about whom they had a dif
ficulty months ago, and who appeared in
court and swore mat aiiaw had repeated'
ly threatened the life of ilolloway, the
last time on the very day ol the shooting.
and thbt she had communicated the men
ace (p him orally and by note. Her testi
mony regarding the threats was corrobor
ated, by another of the same frail sister
hood. It was also proved that Gus.-
Shaw drank freely during the day, and
that when he eutered the saloon and saw-
young Ilolloway there he went out, and,
arming himsell with a pistol, returned,
after which the shooting occurred. But
I will not dwell further on this unhappy
ineme.

Xc-.v Yorl.
New York, Jan. 11. The indignation
meeting held in Coopsr Institute to-night
to denounce the outrages against the po
litical rights ol' the people of Louisiana
was one of the most remarkable events of
the kind ever witnessed in this city, in
point of numbers and enthusiasm. The
doors were open half an hour before the
usual time. The rush was terrific, and
at a quarter past seven room could not be
had (n the great hall.
THE SIHCTIfta CALLf.P TO ORDER.
August Belmont called the meeting to
order, and proposed Mayor Wickham as
chairman.
DISPATCn from gov. ji'rserv.
Mr. Wickham took the chair and said
he had just been handed a dispatch from
our suffering brethren in the South, and
he asked their attention to it:
"Louisiana sends greetings to night
Her people will not be goaded into con
flict with the United States troops. The
committee is preparing evidence to refute
the slanders of Sheridan. We rely on
the moral support of our sister States to
restore to us, as American freemen, our
right of self government." Immense ap
plause. J
The reading of the dispatch, which
was signed by John McEnery, Governor,
and other officials was followed by im
mense applause.
REMARKS OF MR. BRVANT.
Win. Cullcn Bryant then addressed the
meeting. He said:
TlnV.ridg" "S'lt- inter
meddle in the affairs of a State, save in
two cases, first lo protect the state from
nvasion, and secondly on the application
of the Legislature, or the Executive
when the Legislature can not be convened,
to protect the State against domestic vi
olence. The wrong done has no possible
extenuation. I regard this question
solely. as a solemn question of Constitu
tional law. No matter who desired the
nterfcrence of the military, it should not
have bcen given but in the way of the
Constitution. Otherwise it is an act
from which no citizen has a right to
withhold his condemnation. It must be
rebuked the instant it is perpetrated.
The evil must be crushed in its infancy.
while its bones are yet in the gristle, and
before it becomes formidable, as a prcc
edent
These practices, which contemplate the
subjection ol local politics to the federal
authorities by the exercise of the military
power, must be denounced, must be
stopped, must be broken up forever.
A list of vice presidents was then read.
among whom was Wm. M. Dodge.White-
law Reid, Simon Sterne, Peter Cooper,
Wm. CuIIen .Bryant, Uhatlcs U Uonncr,
and about seven others.
REMARKS OF SIR. E7ART3.
Hon Vm. M. Evarts, the next speaker,
was received with cheers. lie said
the sole intervention of the Federal au
thority within the province of State au
thority is to suppress violence; and that
olhce even it shall not assume except
when invited bv the Legislature of the
State. And in no casual condition that
the Legislature is not in session can the
governor represent the legislature in the
demand, but only on the condition that
thev cannot be convened. Jsow, then.
bv the constitution of Louisiana, the Leg
islature was in session, and the Governor
Iiad.no power, had no right, to represent
that state in a demand for intervention by
the Federal authorities. It is only in in
surrection, or that .degree of violence
which apprngghgs-insurrrrt'n m p.lrpp.t,.
that the constitution ol the united Slates
has provided for this intervention, and it
is only in support of such intervention
that the legislation of the Congress of
1795 and 1S07 armed the President with
the authority. lie thought the constitu
tion set forth that, when a riot was im
minent, a proclamation should be issued.
If, when the late election was held, armed
bands intimidated voters, then was the
time for the President of the United
States to interfere. This attempt to con
trol the Legislature struck at the very
soul of republicon form of government.
The people should know and teach their
rulers that all their olhcers were only in
their positions to act in accordance with
law.
Mr. Evarts was followed by Hon: James
S. Thavcr. Hon wm. E. Dodge. George
Ticknor Curtis and Ex-Governor Solomon,
after which the meeting adjourned.

MAONIFICANT CONCEPTION WON
DERFULLY CARRIED OUT.
The necessity of a nonular medium forth

The successive failures which have so invariably
ioiiowcu cacn attempt in mis country to establish-an
art journal, did not ptoje tho indiffee
ence of the people of America to the claims of
high art. So soon as a proper appreciation of
tho want and an ability to meet it were shown.
tho public at once rallied with enthusiasm to
its support, and tne result was a rreat artistic
and commercial triumph THE ALDINE.

It is an elegant miscellany of nure. lic-ht. and

affords a fresh pleasure to its friends, tho real
value and beauty ot Tho Aldine will be most
appreciated after it is bound op at the close of
ne year, n nue otner publications may claim
uperior cheapness, as compared with rivals of
a similar class. The Aldine is a unique and

The national feature of The AId:ne must bo
taken In no narrow sense. True art is cosmo
politan. While The Aldine is a strictly Ameri-
an institution, it docs not confine itseir to the
eprodnction of native art. Its mission Is to
cultivate a broad and appreciative art taste, one
that will discriminate on grounds of intrinsic
merit. Thus, while pleadingbefore the patrons
of The Aldine, as a leading characteristic, the
productions of tne most noted American artists,
attention will always be given to specimens
from foreign masters, giving subscribers all the
pleasure and instruction obtainable from horns
or foreign sources.
The artistic illustration or American scenery.
original with The Aldine is an important fea
ture, and its magnificent plates are of a size
more appropriato to the satisfactory treatment
of details than can be afforded by any Inferior
page. Thejadiciouslnterspcrsion of landscape,
marine, figure and animal subjects, sustain an
unabated interest, impossible where the seopo
of the work confines the artist too closely to a
ingle style or subject. Xne literature of Tne
Aldine is a light and graceful accompaniment,
worthy of the artistic features, with only such.
technical disquisitions as do cot interfere with
the popular interest or tne work.
PREMIUM FOR 1875.
Every subsciber for 1S75 will receive a beau
tiful portrait, in oil colors, of the same noble
dog whose picture in a former issue attracted so
much attention.
"Maris Unselfish Friend"
will be welcome to every home. Everybody
loves such a dog, and the portrait is executed
so true to the life, that it seems tho veritable
presence of the animal itself. The Rev. T. Da
Witt Talmage tells that bis own Newfoundland
dog (the finest in Brooklyn) barks at it. Al
though to natural, no one who tees this pre
mium chromo will have the slightest fear of
being bitten.
Kesides the chromo every advance subscriber
to The Aldine for 1S75 is constituted a member
and entitled to the privileges of
