IT 18 SIMPLY PRESS AGAINST PRESS, It has been suggested, if your Honor will permit me to say it, several tines in the progress of the ‘newspaper discussion “VE CENTS. that it might have en just as well for the two organs of Gen. Brady to .have been less" sensitive, less anxious, to present a newspaper vindicu- tion than they have becn, and to ealinly await the regular administration of justice. ‘They have not seon fit to'do sv. What ali this has to do with your Honor’s position and the thie erations of the Judicial machinery It is li cult to concelve, except it becomes appropri- ate to reply toa most extraurdinary und parguatell application to your Honor.—t 8, the fact that your Honor assumes to plazo the Attorney-General of the United States and‘of. his representatives in this court, and lay your hond upon them direct, and reuulre that they proceed ‘without re- xara to. their’ own. convictions right, and propriety, and justice, elther to the United States or to individuals, under your Honor’s discretion. If there be io all the ages of civilized judicial provesdings any precedent for this, ft can, perhaps, be pro- duced by Reatomen as learned na those who represent Gen. Brady, If not, tt 1s entitled to no consideration fram your Honor, how- ever {tmay be enlogized, What department of law hos accused, up to this tine, Gen. Brady? Whataction of Inw has called him Into court with this application? Now, if your Honor please, : f ALLOW ME TO BAY— in behalf of myself, In behalf of the Attor- ney-General, and on ‘behalf of ty brother , Corkhill, and _on behalt ‘of: the President of the United States—this: Thay occupy, at ‘| least-the President: ‘and * Attortiey-General, high and dignitied positions, We attempt to act In hurmony with them. Tho President of the United States: has assumed this posl- tion, and {t ay be regarded ag authoritative, if that will be pleasing to my brothers to hear it, that the Investigation into the supposed crime and offenses agalnst the Postal laws of the United Statas must bo pursued carefully, cautiously, and Impartially; that no onemust be presented to the Grand Jury for their consideration or Investigation except after caretul and thorough Investtgntion, tending to show, when It js completed, that there lias probably beun aerlinseommitted. No rumor, whether, in the newspapers or elsewhere, iust be necepted. ‘Everytlilug inust be based npon whatappeara to be facts, and In this Investigation so impartially conducted under the supervision of the President and of the Attorney-General, no ong must be pursued from porsaual motives. Nu one must be pro- tected, on the other hand, because of f feel {ug of friendship, of affection, or of favor. hdved, TUL WGI AND EXALTED POSITION OF THE PRESIDENT AND OF TIE ATTORNEY-GEN- EMAL, is this: That-the United States cannot, auuatnot, will not present evidence before tho Grand Jury unless, after the must cool, tranqull, aud finpartial examination, it ap- pears to be requisit to do so, té. maintain the nurity, welfare, and stability of the United Eintes: Tf, atter such oxamination, It bo- cumes necessary to present the most exalted citizen of the United States or tho humblest and poorest In the walks of Ife, they should be equally presented. ‘To-day, acting upon these authoritative principles, 1 muy say there Is no case to present to the Grand. Jury agalust Gen. Brady or any one else, ‘Thers aro inveatigations roing on: that, when completed, with Involve Citizens of the United States in grave and se rious offences and crimes wiley Ifallowed to continue, may involve the life of the frst Nation of the elvilized world, Aust tho rep- reauntatives of the Inw be hurried, upon the Impulse und request of one on whom, the hand of the law has not, up to this tine, been tald ?
