The text of tae ier— ter had been publisbed,* and the fie simile bad not been, and 1t was to deter- mine whether the liter sioni? be lithographed ad tb shed in fac simile that Mr. Hart sought the opinion of Mr. Hewitt and otuers 3s lo its genuineness. In every other particular Judge Davis says he beileves the evidence, ard all the inferences made by iim from St are tally justifiec by the facts, end tuen the judge go-s On to show how the erm r happened to be made, and to inquire whether it is of any material Significance in ferming a correct opinion of his conduct in the affair. Mr. Hewitus Connection with the Letter Sharply Criticised. Te judge says the letter, as first published, Would have fallen stiliborn as a silly and use- less forgery if 1t had not been taken up and carried through photographs and lithographic facsimiles on tne shoulders of vhe national committee, and Mr. HewitUs stronger charac- ter. Nobody charged or suspected Hewitt of being the guilty forger, but my bellet was and sullis that but for him and nis course the forgery would never have been picked out of the gu. @ ti Watcs ff was born and bh red isto The canvass with the deadly power of his endorsement aud that of the national commit- tee. The judge tien adds some porcions of te tesUmony or Mr. Hart, tending, he thin show that his (Jnégé Davis’) | mi-tals one at most mere phraseslogy. He then gees on to say that the testimoay hid net been wri'teu out and he tiad relied on his bilet uetes Cf the most Important points. it Was the pudlication of the fac similes of the letter with Mr. Hewitt's endorsement that slarmed and astonished the couatry, aud if the evidence of Mr. Hart did not show that Mr. Hewitt was the f cause of the forgery tak ing tat dangerous and effective shape, the jnoge was unable to understand t's scope and effect. He says that he is justified in saying that but for Mr. Hewitu's acts the thiag would not have been d) e. One word trom him would have secured delay, and that word repeated would have prevented action. But he (Hewitt) chose not to utter that word—not even to allow his Irierd, Gen. Garfield. the chance to know what was claimed to be his “death warrant,” aud much less a chance to cross examine the mau Whose opinion and character were most likely tocxccute it, He then alludes to Mr, Hewitt’s uiteraLces on the platform abous the forge! lctter and his testimony on the witaess stand in the Philp case in regard to it. Ia conclusion. Svdge Davis says: “It {3 a great mistake In Mr. Hewitt to suppose that his testimony and nis conduct were not the legitimate subject of jal. ial criticism when he appeared as a witnes: uncer such circumstances, aud my opinion tn the case, for whatever it may be worth, will Stand unaltered as to bir particular above suggt Honors to a Lecturer.
