CRITTENDEN-HAWKINS. There is a controversy now going on between Gov. Crittenden ot Mis- souri and Gov. Hawkins of Ten- nessee that is as important as it is interesting to our people. In two instances thus tar has Gov. Crittenden been called upon to as- sert his prerogative as executive of the State, in defence of the right and liberty of certain of our citizens. The public well remember the requisition of Goy. Roberts of Tex- as, demanding the extradition of Col. John T. Crisp of Jackson coun- ty, upon a charge of murder, which is supposed to have been committed twenty years ago, at atime when our civil strife was atits redest heat. It is also remembered that Gov. Cnit- tenden refused to grant the demand to surrender a citizen of his Stateon such a pretext when the constitution of Missouri clearly forbids it under such circumstances. A second case parallel to the one just given, excepting that the conse- quences would have been far more shameful, resulting perhaps in actual murder is now pending settlement. We allude to the requisition of Gov. Hawkins ot Tennessee, for the arrest and return to that State of one Kincade, of Vernon county, charged in the indictment with mur- der, which should have been com- mitted during the war. Gov Crit- tenden first acceeded to the demand and ordered Kincade arrested and delivered to the agent of Gov. Hawk- ins bearing the requisition. But scarcely had the arrest been made when Gov. Crittenden discovered that a diabolical conspiracy was at the bottom of the business, and he at once revoked the order to arrest Kincade and notified the Governor of Tennessee accordingly. Investigation on the part of our State authorities has developed the startling tact that the agents—three in number—of Gov. Hawkins had succeeded by some means or other in securing the requisition of Gov. Crittenden for the arrest of Kin- cade upon certain evidence that he had committed murder, when their real motives were to put Kincade out of the way in order that they might retain certain property which they had stolen from him and _ his tather during the war, asuit to re- cover which was at that time pend- tng. Although this horid plot was duly brought before Gov. Hawkins, yet he seemed disposed not to believe in its truth and hence sent a letter to Gov. Crittenden insisting on the de- mand for Kingcade’s extradition. In response to this Gov. Crittenden addressed a letter a few days ago. in which he took a very positive stand upon his original determination, giving the clause in the constitution in refference to such cases, and citing other authorities. In this position the Governor should, and will be supported by the whole people of the State. It is the igh duty of the State executive to et citizens in their rights from attempt by fraud and conspiraey | and no one year fre Remember | todrag them from home and beyond | our State limits to be tried for pre- tended offences.

The latest political sensation since the Crisp-Mahone scare, is now the stirring topic of hotel and lobby con- versation in the nation’s capital city.

The President nominated Ros- coe Conkling, of New York, Asso- ciate Justice of the Supreme court of the United States, and A. A. Sar- gent, ot California, Minister to Ger- many. Both appointments created surprise in Washington. and notably that of Mr. Conkling’s. Politicians, who make it their business to keep posted regarding such matters, were | confidently] expecting the name of Senator Edmunds sent in to fill the | vacancy on the Supreme Court | Bench. The consternation, there- tore, when the news became _noised | about along the from the Executive Mansion to the Senate Chamber that Roscoe Conkhng was the man. But it is intimated that Mr. Conk- ling will not accept the mantle which insures him a position of hon- or for life with the very lucrative salary of $10,000 a year. He is known to be a creature ot ambition whose most natural field is in the Senate Chamber or on the rostrum. where political heat and excitement is the greatest, and where conquests allures him into the realms of grati- fied self adulation. seat on the Supreme Bench and re- main there, is to exclude outright the life he has hitherto led, and con- tent himself with the hum-drum of business which naturally follows th Avenue reading of briefs and the dry plead- | ing at the bar. But Mr. Conkling might smother his ambition for more lively pur- suits for a period of a tew years, say till the campaign of *84 fairly opens, then lay aside the mantle and stand as the leader of the immortal 306 for President. Blaine will be there to meet him and he can have ail the fun and life he wants. HAZELTINES PREVOUS FAITH. ohnstown, Mo., Feb, 21st 1882. Dp. Traes: Was I. S.
