" H, IT. Parker, eq., replied that after what bad been said by the attorney, it was bis duty' Jto protest against any disposition of the case now except 'by a hearing and determination by the magistrate. He said that ; no one of the five Gordons had. been shown to be guilty of .even improper talk, except Harry, the youngest, and then under the influence of liquor. He also' warned these self-constituted "committees that, the community would not tolerate such . interference as they had been nilfv of. He thought the counsel for the de- ? , . o . . . .

He had not himself prepared to argue this case, : having from tbe beginning left that to Mr. Sennott. the junior counsel. , ' Mr.' Dana stated that an argument in the cate after the Government had abandoned it would be useless. But if any thing could be said io vindication f the Gordons, it would be quite fair to allow.it. " , Mr. Sennott was obliged to the District Attorney for -that. He said that after what the Gordons had suffered, it would be no ad van-iae tb them to argue their case , What they ,wanted:their counsel to do was to vindicate then character, and expose the meanness of the'prosecutors. This he proposed to' do' now; He thea . addresped the. JCommiseioner' aa follows: . ' , . '.. : .v. ft . Charles P. Gordon is sixtyyeara old: He has four sons;-; They are' all natives of New England, and silver-smiths by trade; '7-They. reaiJe in the suburbs, ttd-do business here, on Washington street, in the buiWing of -deacon Palmer. t They are men. pf reapec table stand-injr, and as to their political sentiments, they voted for Douglas.

Mr.' Hobart, acting upon, that" information, wrote them a letter; whieb", with its answer from tha Qatr ons, is in the case. 'The next day, by the invitation of Deacon Palmer, the above nanied 'croons met. by concert in his basement, with a number pf others elected deacon Palmer chairman of the meeting, and .then pallid tha Gordons before tbeni.

From this violent scene the sop was drawn away by the' .' father, and the strange committee dissolved and disappeared through Deacon Palmer's back door. The Assistant District Attorney was then informed Ithat the Gordons had given aid and comfort to the en-tmf.' This information he 'says,' upon .his oath, he believes.

But I know this. ,ri know, that the gentlemen of tne ttepujuican party ao. not. countenance it, and that it will fail here, because, among other reasons, to reach their political opponents they must cut down both political and personal friends. If free speech is treason, our excellent Governor would speedily be known as the late. unlamented John A. Andrew, for his speech is excessively free and quite loose, as vpu may say !

" H, IT. Parker, eq., replied that after what bad been said by the attorney, it was bis duty' Jto protest against any disposition of the case now except 'by a hearing and determination by the magistrate. He said that ; no one of the five Gordons had. been shown to be guilty of .even improper talk, except Harry, the youngest, and then under the influence of liquor. He also' warned these self-constituted "committees that, the community would not tolerate such . interference as they had been nilfv of. He thought the counsel for the de- ? , . o . . . .

He had not himself prepared to argue this case, : having from tbe beginning left that to Mr. Sennott. the junior counsel. , ' Mr.' Dana stated that an argument in the cate after the Government had abandoned it would be useless. But if any thing could be said io vindication f the Gordons, it would be quite fair to allow.it. " , Mr. Sennott was obliged to the District Attorney for -that. He said that after what the Gordons had suffered, it would be no ad van-iae tb them to argue their case , What they ,wanted:their counsel to do was to vindicate then character, and expose the meanness of the'prosecutors. This he proposed to' do' now; He thea . addresped the. JCommiseioner' aa follows: . ' , . '.. : .v. ft . Charles P. Gordon is sixtyyeara old: He has four sons;-; They are' all natives of New England, and silver-smiths by trade; '7-They. reaiJe in the suburbs, ttd-do business here, on Washington street, in the buiWing of -deacon Palmer. t They are men. pf reapec table stand-injr, and as to their political sentiments, they voted for Douglas.

Mr.' Hobart, acting upon, that" information, wrote them a letter; whieb", with its answer from tha Qatr ons, is in the case. 'The next day, by the invitation of Deacon Palmer, the above nanied 'croons met. by concert in his basement, with a number pf others elected deacon Palmer chairman of the meeting, and .then pallid tha Gordons before tbeni.

From this violent scene the sop was drawn away by the' .' father, and the strange committee dissolved and disappeared through Deacon Palmer's back door. The Assistant District Attorney was then informed Ithat the Gordons had given aid and comfort to the en-tmf.' This information he 'says,' upon .his oath, he believes.

But I know this. ,ri know, that the gentlemen of tne ttepujuican party ao. not. countenance it, and that it will fail here, because, among other reasons, to reach their political opponents they must cut down both political and personal friends. If free speech is treason, our excellent Governor would speedily be known as the late. unlamented John A. Andrew, for his speech is excessively free and quite loose, as vpu may say ! We have merely to go back to his letter to Mr. Kimluli to make bjqj an advocate and champion pf frtap& jrt its broadest extent.
