After reading it we tried to think of some adjective which would ex- press our opinion of it, We looked in the dictionary for tho definition of fishy, One definition is, having the smoll of fish, Well, wo think that, in time, fish would cone to have the same kind of a smell; #0, perhaps, we could not find a more filting word, Wedo not mean when we say that it is fishy that it has any criminal aspect what: ever, Forto us it does net seem to have But if the sort of management upon which Mr. Fotunnron entered is deomed right and proper under the exisiing law, then we | think the svcacr the law is altered the Detier, Mr. Futurnton seys he was retained by Provident Jounsox, We do not think there was anything d@isgraccfiu in that, although | some people might think there was, It will not do for lawyers who desire a larga practice to Le overnive os to who become their clients. We should feel a Uittle afraid, with a cliont like Mr. Jom bon, that a President who advocates the repudiation of the public debt might pos. sibly repudiate his own counsel, If, since his retainer, Mr. Futaenvon ins lind a partial experience of this kind, ho has ouly re 1 what he lind pretty yood y w n to apprehend The business upon which Mr. Foniuwrox entered at the of tho President would seem to have Leen, in its general as: Pect, rather adapted to the skill of a detective Police than to the clevaicd genius of a good lawyer, Ferretiug out offences takes ita Dame from the revomblance of the oveupa tion tothe nature and characteristics of ter. rete. Itmay be well enough fora man to Amitate a ferret if h's taste Nes that way. The difleulty and objection to using ferrets to kl] rats about a house—unlees they have Deen thoroughly trained or are muzvled—is that they are prone to suck the Liood of the first victim that they overtake, and, having exbausted his veins, leave him where he sub- sequently becomes offensive. Between this and tho first operation of Mr. Foitenton and his ally there seems to be a pretty closo resemblance, A ferret chasce a Fat into a hole and seizes him by the throat, and sucks his blood, ‘The first victim that Mr. Futtenron got hold of, in his efurt to ferret out frauds, was Mr, T. E. Sari, o Collector, He was arrested by a bogus roquest TOLIDAY to depart in pence, The money and bonds were deporited with his counsel to enable him to effvet a settlement with the Government If possible, Mr. Ssrrrit all the while protested his Innocence, but he was badly frightened and intensely excited, and apprehensive that tho disgrace of his arrest would ruin his fa mily., His groat anxicty was that it should be kept out of tho newspapers, and he was willing to give up everything that he had for the sake of settling the difeulty, Mir FULLERTON was very scrupulous about talking with Mr. Sst while he was under tho bogus arrest; but offered, at tho samo time, to Histon to any disclosures. which he had to make abont whiekey frauds, and talked freely with lis counsel in his presen ‘This amounted to about as muchas if he had refused to talk with the man unloas he took the trouhle to shout through a speaking trompet. No practical difficulty was inter. posed by Mr, Funtanron's eeruplea to tho parties speedily effecting an understanding with each other, There was a failure to make a rettlement or compromise with the Government, ho bonds deposited by Mr, Sarrit proved worth.

Ratvit Watvo Exrenson and tho Hon, Joux Mon. nissty, M,C, might differ on this subject os widely aa they do in polit’es, Wo ylally bear testimony to tho high standing of Mr. Funnnnron at the bar, We never heard anything against him, exeept that ho was ones a Judge of tho present Su- preme Court; but it was for sucha very short timo thatit ought not necessarily to have corrupted b ve Judge Barnard and Judge MeCunn,. Our readers will remember that when an arrest was attempted at a theatre in this city, foveral months ago, just at the commenco- ment of the play in the ing, on ® war rant issued by Judge Gronon @. Barxann, Judge BanNand manifested his reapect for Himself and for public opinion by stating: in open Court that ho would not have grranted tho warrant had he known that it was in- tendo? to execute it in such a manner, This raised Judge Barxanp a good deal in our estimation, and wo have frequently defended him when he has been assailed since. We hope that Judgo McCunn will have an equally satisfactory explanation to meke as to the issning of the warrot for tho ar. rest of Mr. Bownra at so Inte on hour on Tuesda, evening. The arrest at that tin aud in the manner in which it was eflvcted, seems to have been a flagrant outrage. We do not understand that there was even a pre- co that Mr, Bow1ns proposed toleave the city Immediately, or why his arrest should not have been made the next moruing, and every facility afforded him for procuring bail without being committed to jail at all, Tt Dears the appearance of an act of pure ma. lignity and spite, We nro anxious to think well and to speak wellof Judge MCCunN, as wo have always been in regard to Judge Bannann; and we are pained to seo his name associated, even innocently, with an act of oppression, —— It in said that the practice begrina to prevail that petitioners for the benefit of the Bankrupt haw do by une crupulous lawyers interposing an objection to ir discharge in the name tors, wherenpon long and vexati of the petitioncrs are gone tuto with the expec tation that they will finely get wearled out and consent to buy relief by paying liberal sums, whieh the opposing lawyers and the Regis tors in Bankraptey quietly divide between the the petitioners getting their discharge, but tho creditors getting nothing.
