RAYAWAY FROM THE suBscRiBER, residing at Gisboro’. near W ashington City, on the 6th fastant, megro man JIM is as follows: “While these words were passing from his [my] lips, he commenced a succession of blows with a heavy cane on my bare head, by the First of which I was stunned so as to lose sight.” it would have gratified me had he been compelled to answer under oath as to the vio- lence of the first blow, which, I aver, was but a tap, and intended to put him on his guard. But, sir, he is conveniently and deliberately absent and on travel, notwithstanding but six days ago this case was postponed on account of his extreme indisposition and the materi- ality of his testimony ; and yet, with all these disadvantages, I preter to receive the judg- ment of the court ABS to continue in suspense. It is not my purpose to address any evidence in defence. I have already accomplished more then half of the journey of life, and this is the first time that it has been my misfortune to be ar- raigned before any judicial tribunal as a breaker of any law of my country I confess, sir, aud without shame, that my sensibilities are disturbed by my novel position, and I have but to express my profound regret that in discharging a duty imposed upon me by my own sense of right and the sentiment of the gallant people it is ny pride and honor to represent, I am constrained as a consequence to approach you asa violater and not as a maker of the laws. {n extenuation of my offence, permit me to say that no extraordinary power of invention is requisite to imagine a variety of personal grievances, which the good of society and even public morality require to be redressed; and yet no adequate legal remedy may be had. So also-are those cases which may fall under the condemnation of the letter of the law, and yet like considerations will restrain its penalties. The villain who perverts the best feelings of the better sex, and rewards unsuspecting devotion with ruin, may bid defiance to this honorable court. But where a sister’s dishonor is blotted out with the blood of her destroyer, an intelligent and wholesome public opinion, embodied in an intelligent and virtuous jury, always has, and always will, control the law, and popular sentiment will applaud what the books may condemn It is the glory of the law that itis founded in reason. But can that reasoning be just which is not regardful of human feeling? Sir, no one knows better than yourself that such a reproach does not rest upon our jurisprudence ; for, even the stern letter of the law touches with tenderness the husband who slaya in the act the usurperof hisbed The child who kills in defence of its parent is excused by the law, which is ever regardful of the virtuous impulses of nature. @ parity of reasoning, patriotism is re- srded is every nation vt de earth as the car- inal political virtue. Sons are made to re- ward it, and to perpetuate the names of those who are its exemplars. And can it be ex- cted—will it be required—that I, with a to feel and an arm to strike, shall pa- tiently hear and ignobly submit while my po- litical mother is covered with insult, and ob- loquy, and dishonor? while her character is sland: , and her reputation libeled ? Sir, the substance which I have been gath- ering for my children may be squandere my body way be consigned to the common jail, my life itself may be forfeited, but I will be true to the instincts of my nature—true to the home of my maturity, and to the mother that bore me. 7 . The first political lesson which my ripening faculties fully comprehended and appreciated, was the high moral and social obligations of every citizen to bow himself to the majesty of the law. In obedience to the precepts of my youth which are sanctioned by the experience and jadgment of mature years, [ submit my case to the discretion of the court with entire confidence, that while you, sir, as @ magistrate perform your whole duty to the country and yourself, you will remember that in every regulated community, public opinion distinguishes between crime and hon- orable resentment and tolerates the refuge which men sometimes seek in the magnanimity of their judges. Upon the conclusion of Mr. Brooks’s remarks, Judge Crawford proceeded to give the follow- ing decision : ee ** As this matter will be within a short time the subject of investigation in another place, an as it isnot necessary to the discharge of my duty that I should remark on the evidence adduced, which I could not do without touch- ing on some of the points that will probably be raised elsewhere, it appears to me to be roper that the sentence of the Court should ke pronounced without comment. That sen- tence is that the defendant pay a fine of $300. 2 ae Proranity.—-Virginia Evans an Asse Harris, colored, were arrested by officers Fan- ning and Williameon yesterday, for open pro- fanity in the streets.
