Tho Distriob Court fs dircoted to namo bLis Bliccossor, o JUDGE THORNTON’S LETTER. We Invite tho attention of votors of the Fith Judiclal Diatrlot to tho lottor of Judgo Thornton printod in thie doy's Tamuvxe. Judgo Thornton bas rosignod his sont on tho Suprome Bonch, and 19, thoroforo, freo to eponk of his assoclatos. Judgo Thornton is » Domoorat, was oloctod in o strong Domocratio district, and, it thoro wero any antagotlsm of judgmont rosulting from politicn) bles, it would naturally ocour botwoon him and Judge Lawronco, Whatovor may havo boen tho difforonces in opinion botwoen tho Judges on any of tho multiplied quostions submitted to thom, Judgo Thornton boars witnoss to tho losm- ing, nbiltty, nnd fosrloss indopendonco of Judgo Lawronco. Mo roviows thio ohargo that tho lattor ia tho friond of rallway monopolice, andwo thoroughly oxplodos this calumny that 1o docont man will horoattor repost it. Judgo Thornton furthor statos that Inst winter Judgo Lawronco urgod upon bis follow-Tudges to con- sidor and decide the Alton Rallway caso at an snrly day, in order that, if tho Inw of 1800 should bo found defective, tha defoct might bo polutad out by tho Courtin timo for tho Logislaturo then in sossion to make tho nocdod correction, Tho 080 s taken up, oxaminod by the Judges, and tho unauimons conviotion provailed that the law wos fatally dofectivo, not bocauso it provided ponaltios for unjust disorimi- nntions, but bocsuse 1t probibited avy discrimination undor any circumstancos, and rofused to tho dofondant tho xight of offer- ing tostimony in defenso or in oxplanation of tho discrimination charged, Tho right of defonso is cooqual with tho right to nccuse, and no man or corporation can bo mado to suffer in his por- son, his liborty, his proporty, or his {rauchisce without & trial according to tho forms of law, and ono of theso forme is tho right to bo hoard in defeuso, Judge Thornton, who is ono of tho Judges who.united in that judgment, calls at- tontion to tho fact that tho opinion of the Court, a8 road by Judge Lawronco, practically docides that the discrimination charged in that caso— demanding greator rates for transportation from Chicago to Loxington then from Chicago to Bloomington on the ground of compotition—waa unjust, and would bavo been punichablo had tho Inw pormitted tho Companytomako a defonsa,ond faad tho ponsltios beon at alt commensurato it tho wrong inflictod. Horo thoro was & practical affirmation of the power of tho Stato to logis- late for the punishment of such & discrimina- tion, and & declaration by tho Court thnf, had ot tho oxisting statute boon a0 manifoatly in- valid in the othor particulars, and tho ponalty so dispropottionate with tho offonso, judgment would isvo been rendorod agsinst tho Company. Tho Legislaturo, acting under tho suggostions of the Court, promptly romedied the defocts in tho provious law. 'Tho eireumstanco that tho Alton Tailwsy Company, immodintoly upon that do- clsion, procooded o romodal its tarif? of froights,.| abolishing discriminations and ostablishing uni- formity in its charges, shows moro conclusivoly than anything clso that tho corporations are nat proparod to go beforo Judge Lawrenco again with the ssme kind of & caso undor tho amendod Iaw. graph, of Lis suspousion as the Commissionor of tho Unitod Stalos at tha Vienna Exposition, o addrossod lettors to Prosident Grant and to Sec- relory Fish, Thoso lotters havo just boon made publio.

Van Buron shall bovo boen thoroughly investigated, and eitber rofutod altogothor or afirmed in o maner thnt slimll make tho ovidonco as clear to tho public as it must bo presumed to have been to tho Prosi- dont whon bo ordored Gon. Van Buron's sum- mory romoval. Tho improssion which ono rocoives from a porusl of Gon. Ven Duren's loitors is, that they woro written by an lonest snd much-abused man. Thoy aro not couched in woll-considored language, and do not contain any ingonlous ovasions of tho point at iesuo. Tho man who wroto thom appears to have been overwhelmed and erushiod by tho suddon and unoxpocted dis- graco put upon him, Ho claims that ho was nevor permittod to know, or ovon suspcot, that chargen bnd beon mado against hin ; that ho was ontortained at Minister Joy's tablo; that lie was allowad to assumo his position as Commissioner, to install his family at Vionna, and to placa him- wolf at o holght from which thre fall would bo tho groatost. Thenho waa notifled that Lo Liad boon removed, without giving him an opportuni- tyfor dofonso. Ilo moots tho chargos ngalnst bim, of the vory naturo of which ho sooms to be in ignorance, in tho brondest and most direct maunor, Ilo makos affida- vit that ho has *never askod, boon promisod, roceived, or oxpocted torecoivo, & mngla cont, or any considoration or advantago to mysolf, of any namo or maturo, ofthor directly or indi- raotly,” for “any commission or nppointmont, nor “for amy concesslon, or grant, or pronuiso, o act, or authority, in connection with tho exbibition,” oxcopt tho sum of §1,000 on account of salnry, o which o was “logitimatoly ontitlod. No donial coild be more sweeping than_ thls, Mo domands o restorstion of Lis placa, not becauso hio wanta to bo & Commis- sionor, which, ho says, lins bocomo Dateful to Lim, but becauso no ono had a right to dis- graco him and his family without giving bim an opportunity to Justify himsolf. Ho alio do- ‘mands a searching lnvestigation, which shall b as public sud aa etriking as tho dogradation which Lio liag sufferod. "Ilie majorlty of thoso who road Gon, Vau Bu- ren’s lottors will coma to tho conclusion that ho Das boon mistreatod in that ho was deposod without oven a hint of the charges of corruption sgainst him, It will dovolve upon tho Govern- ment to mako out a strong caso agsiust bim to Juatity this procoeding. 1t thoro is a fallure to ‘mako ont such & onso, thore will be no way in which to atono to Gen, Van Buren for tho sorl- ous wrong put upon him, and the dlsgraco that now attaches to liia namo will bo transferred to Minister Jay, Booretary Fish, and President Orant, for haying hronght tha haoar af & nulilia mian into bankruptey without hoaring him fa his own dofonso. Gon, Van Buron s boou o ro- apectod citizon of Now York, ngainst whom no seandal ns ever boon uttored, Tho posi- tion of Commisslonor which ho assumod was ono ralher of houor than 'of profit. Thero fs abundant ovidonco that ko has worked ditigently to mnko tho Amoriean roprescntation at Viouns rospectablo and creditablo. Tho dis- graco attachod tobis romovalis ono thnt will follow bim and his family long aftor tho presont Intorost intho Viennn Exposition shall bavo subsided, It §s o disgraco that Ims wprend abrond throughout tho world aud lns tnrnished tho Amorlenn national roputation, which was not In a condition to boar up wndor any now ovi- doncos of corruption, Ilis romoval, thoroforo, should not Lavo beon ordered upon moro suspicion or irrosponsiblo chnrges. It conld only bo justified by ovidonco of tho miost con- vincing charactor that Gou, Van Buron had boon guilty of corrnpt ndministration of Ly ofico. It tho Governmont Is in possossion of such evidonco, It should bo mado publio. Gon. Vau Duron acouscs Mr. John Joy, tho Ministor of tho United Statea at Viowus, of hov- ing practically organized n conspiracy against him, and intimotos that Mr. Joy was jonlous of tho honors and attontions that Gon. Van Buren would bo likely to rocoivo a8 tho hend of tho Amorican Commission, This improssion on tho poart of Gon. Van Buron, oven it ho s lunocont of tho corruption imputod to bim, may bo at- tributod to his indiguntion at tho treatment ho 1ius rocoived, and his knowledgo of tho fact that Minlstor Jay hiad been chiefly instrumental In scouring bis disgraco. That Ministor Joy played 80 important a part In tho susponsion of Gon. Van Buron, howover, furnishos an additional rongon why thoro should bo o thorough investi- gation of tho wholo offair, Minlstor Jay is n man of aoristocratio motions, which Lavo.been dovoloped in his rosidonco abroad, and hie attaches moro importanco to tho forms of otiquotto that obtain at Buropoan Courts than Amoricans gonorally. If Ministor Jny hins boon ‘moved on account of moro formal objections to Gen, Van Duron's administration, or by any othor reason than that of protecting tho Amorl- can Governmout from palpablo abuses and dis- gracos, it is fit that this should bo kuown, and that the shamofulness of tho situation should bo turned agninst tho Ministor instead of tho Commissioner. Mr. Jay should, thorofore, insist upon & production of tho proofs against Gon. Van Buton, in justico to himsolf. 8o far a8 was known, thoro havoboon but two specifio cavos of corruption alloged ngainet Gen. Vau Buren. Ono of thoso was that a Mr. Kitzol paid Van Buron §600 for bis placo in the Amorican Department. Van Buron domanded the privi- lego of confronting Kitzel boforo tho whola Commission, If ho Lad mado this chorgo, snd thie roply from tho Logation was, that Lo bad novor mndo the statemont imputed to him, The other cago was that aunounced from Now York aday or Lwo ago, in which Jobn Sutherland, o woll-known restaurateur of Liberty stroct, New York, i nlloged to havo mado a statomont 10 tho Stato Dopartmont to the offect that Van Buron camo to Lim and offorod him o placo for n xos- taurant in the Exposition if Suthorland would divido tho profits. This nesortion still needs to bo confirmed. Gen. Van Buron intimates in his lottor to Seo- rotary Fish that the chiargos againet him will bo changed from that of corrupt administration of Dis ofico to {hat of gonorsl mismanngomont. This will not do. 'Tho romoval was not basod on this ground. It waa distinetly given out to tho wholo world that Gon. Van Buron had been guil- ty of uaing his position ns s vehiclo for spocula- tion, thatho Lndold out appointmontsandrecod ed monoy for preferred places in tho Exposition, A policy of management may bo differontly ro- garded by difforont porsone, and tho grossost mismanagoment on Gon, Van Buron's part would liave beon preforablo to tho national disgraco of 8 corrupt uso of his offico, Corruption was tho chiargo, and it is only direct and substantintod proof of this chargo that will justify Prosidont Grant, Socretary Fish, and Ministor Jay in tho coureo they havo takon, Gon.Van Buren onys: 1 claim tho rights of a cltizen, and an oMcor who 1ins received his authority from the Preaident and Son- ato af tho United Btatew, sud who, without couviction of auy offcuuo, I, by tolegram, disgraced boforo tho ‘world, to be restored to my legitimato position, and to huve my character vindicated o8 openly aa it hus beon assailed, and by tho samo high autlority. Gou. Van Buron doos not asic 00 much if ho hns boon abused. Tt ho is guilty of tho charges mado against him, the American pooplo aro en- {itlod to tho proofs of it, that it may incito thom t0 renowod offorts to broak down {ho corrgption.| of our day aud country. /)D HE RATIO OF SEX IN ORIME, AT Tho rocont mooting of the Social Seionco Convontion at Boston, Dr. Edward Jarvis, of that city, road o paper on tho physiological origin of eritno and it relations to sox. Tho intorost in the papor wns in no alight dogroo onhanced by the reputation of tho author as o atatistioinn, “The dlscugslon was an ablo ono, It doscribed tho manifold kinds and dogroos of crime; crimoy ngainst tho porson, crimos ogainst proporty, crimes against publio order, decency, and againgt one's solf. T all thoso crimes, thoro is w strong bodily influenco over tho moral stato. They aro produced by difforont motives and cnusos iu tho mind and hoart.

From tho maes of mate- rinl at hLis sorvico ho olnsslficd crimo undor two gonoral honds: 1. Thoso ngainst porson and proporty, in which tho ond sought was solf- gratlfieation nt tho cost of ofhor; theso roquiring the aid of intollect in tholr oxo~ oution, 2.

An analyals of 182,468 committals showod that mon wore more prono to orimos of Injury, and that women wero moro prone to sensuality, But, not salisfiod with this oxamination, ho oxtonded it further, and, taking tho criminal rocords of Massnohu- solts, Boston, Now York City, aud London, tho aggrogato of convictions was 800,723, of which for crimos againut porsons and proporly 243,273 woro by malos, and 65,000 by fomales ; whilo the divislon s to sox of the other class of crimes was : malos, 200,257 ; women, 202,535, Tho ratio of comparativo linbility of tho oxes to commit thoae two olnssos of crimos g thus shown AL — FEMALES—— Tersona, Sen “Persons, ” Sen- Property. - sualily.

Tho sovoral averago ropotition of erimoes by the samo poron wag 1.82; but among women it wag 9.46 for eachi; or, in othor words, whilo each 100 malo eriminals wout to prison 162 times, 100 fomnlo eriminals went 916 timos. This s incidental to tho charactor of tho crimos committed by tho respectivo soxes.

For avery 100 fomalo criminols of oll ages thero aro 170 malos ; that thoso malo offondors aro ot war agoinst socloly, and far more dangorous to publio safoty.

It is ziot Jong ago "that b Chicago Times ox- porionced roligion, and beeamo a publio advocate of tho docirines of Christianity. Like most ‘young converts, it was a vory active workor, was vaunted itself, liko tho Pharisce, upon its good worke. Tho Northwestern Christian Advocale took tho young convert to its bosom, and the curiously-nasorted pair indulgod in o plous om~ braco, which was vory touching to witnoss. Tho Sunday Times defended tho Aduo- ‘cafe ogeinat tho attacks of the worldly press, and tho Advocals winked owlishly when sloptics doubted tho sincerityof the Zimes' converaion, Tho now laborer in the viuoyard, undor tho protection of tho ddvocale, becamo & zonlous propagandist. It first took the Young Men's Christian Association in chargo, and thon it gathered all tho churches and thoir focks undor ite wings. Itwas so thoroughly dovoted to tho futuro intorosts of mankind that it fol- lowed tho Seriptural injusiction, and put no monoy in its purze. It put bohind itself such Dbindrancos -to virtus 88 advortisomonts and othor sourcos of profit which worldly nowspapors ec#k sfter, and it dovotod ifselt to the caro of tho clurches and tho advaucemont of the causo of roligion, It spurred up tho pious to a moro 2{; vancod standard of piety, and it abused tho Dious, and loudly called upon them to turnfrom tho orror of their ways, - In fact, so loudly did it call, that it quito overwhelmed its co-worker, the Advocate, and loft it nothing to do. Buch zoal o doys of Huss, Forstimo all went swim- mingly, and the curlously-matched twain on- joyod tho monopoly of religious labor, and usnrpod all the virtuo thera was in tho commu- nity thero was worth baving. Nothing could pase muster which was notup to thoir high plano of oxomplary conduct. At Int, howaver, troubls began to ariso, and tho Joud profosslons of tho Sunday Times bogan {o bo suspected by eome. It was oatlng too many strawborrion in tho fostivals. It got too many necktios at tho sociables. It was ming- ling with tho sewiug soclotios and tho Dorcas socioties too frooly. It porsisted In making all tho prayers aud prosching all tho sormony, How one small papor could contain all this roligion bocamo s difiicult s conundrum to solve ns how tho one small head of Gold- umith's schoolmastor could carry all ho kuow. SUll tho Advocae embraced its long-lost brother aud protostod his guilo- lossuces, aud commondod bhis zoal and purity to othor carnally-minded nowspapers, “Ilna assured of tho protection of the Advocate, it turned villago-gossip. 1t drovo its seaveugor- cart through tho highways aud byweys, collaot- ing all tho soandalous stories It could find cou- corning tho mombors of the churchies. It Lad pleked up 0dds aud ends in the dowing soctotios. Men and womon aro_ alwaya pron, to toll tales concerning oach othor, without much rogard to their truth, provided thoy can worry their nolgh- bors. It takos vory littlo material to-build up o pyramid of senudal Maviog gathored togother ita mutorial, thoroforo, it orocted its booth in (homavkot-placo, and commenced pour- fug out its dacoctions upon tho hoads of tho commiunity, Bunduy after Sunday. It hashad its woelly aport, tho community not scoming to care much for It, uutil at last it ran ovor a stump. Tt ompticd [ta vials of wrath upon the muscular Christlan who miniaters to Trinity Ohurel, and whon, on tho sam day, this clorgy- man found tho Sunday Times in bis ohuroh, noto-book in iand, oooupying the front pow by virtuo of .its emarkablo pioty, looking upon own, and roquostod tho Sunday Times to leavo, whoroupon, the Sunday Times showlng some ro- Iuotanco, it was led out by tho ear.
