JTSKEHUBKOU IT u d od-w A LECTURE TO LAWYERS. How They Giyo Aid and Comfort to Criminals of EyerY Degree , Tlio JlypocrUy nntl Sophistry of tlio "Ijo riicil Counsel of the 1'rlsrincr. " To ttio Editor o ( TIIK lien. The unavoidnblo complications of busi ness , nnd the fallibility of human judg- incnU , warod ( as they nro liable to bo by self-interest and prejudice , itbccomcs necessary to have n class of men who have made business rights nnd wrongs n pro found study , and the lawn that were designed - signed to define and nettle those rights. Again , the prevalent depravity of human nature makes it curtain that there will bo violations of the property rights , liberty , reputation , and oven life itaolf , and the resentments that tlio injured would naturally fool , would go very far to dis qualify them for an impartial and reasonable - able judgment of the proper rodrcsi of their wrongs ; so , also , n similar class of men learned in law and the doctrines ot humm rights nro needed ni counsellors in criminal proceedings. Lawyers might bo , and ought to bo , benefactors of man kind , by promoting the peaceable and equitable adjustment of the differences of men in business matters , and in pro- moling the execution of criminal justice and shielding the' innocent from un merited or 'unronsonablo punishment. There is nothing in the nature of that profession to warrant or justify anything in the least unfriendly to either party of the litigants. It is clearly the duty of both , to sock to know tlio exact truth of the case , and the honest rights of the parties. It is clo.uly the intention of the law , to secure the rights of the litigants. The attorney * s put under oath to bo true to his client , but cannot for a moment bo supposed to be by law opposed to the rights of the opposite party. The law cannot be supposed to bo capable of so Bolf-ilcBtructivo a thing as to make n law For the protection of the rights of citi- . /.ens , and then create an influential class and awcar them to do their utmost to de feat the justice of the statute. That is no doubt a falsa and corrupt interpreta tion and application of the moaning of the "oath of an attorney. " By being hired by a client to manage n case in * law , ho acquires no right to inflict a wrong upon another , and thus defeat the real end of the law. And when ho is employed in a criminal trial to defend n criminal , it could not have been intondc in his attorney's oath to bind him to do Ilis utmost to defeat the criminal statute and turn n villain loose to prey upon BO- : ioty with increased boldness. In swear ing a man to toll "the truth , the whole truth , and nothing but the truth , " on the witness stand , it is clearly the design of the law to got nt the exact rights of the ) artios in the case The attorney s oath is abused and per- voi ted when ho docs his utmost to shut out all testimony that boars adversely tjpon his client's eido , and by sophistry and lying explain away what ho cannot exclude. By the attorney's oath it was ntondod to bind the attorney to BOO that all honest testimony in favor of his client ; shall bo admitted , and all false testimony excluded , the law in the case fairly tatod , a fair jury secured , and kept from all undue influence , and a fair impartial charge given by the judge. Hero his rholo duty ends BO far as tUo design of ho law is concerned. Ho has no moro ight in his professional character , to lie , lecoivo , prevaricate , use sophistry , irri- ale , slander or abuse witnesses on the stand , than any other man. Ho is as nuch bound to bo a gentleman there , as n his own , or the witness' parlor. The listory of our courts presents a very dif- 'eront view of the law profession of thoio days , and wo have reason to think that ts history for ages has not boon very dif ferent. In an old book of morals wo read ' "judgment Is turned away back ward and justice atandoth afar on" , for truth is fallen in the streets , and equity cannot enter lea. 59:14.Voo : unto you lawyers Luke 11.40. : This is the condition of a country when the courts of justice fail to protect the lives nnd liberties of the people. Cer tain destruction awaits such n govern ment sooner or later. There are some fearful omens of such a doom for our country when vro consider the numerous coses of violence unavenged that are re ported in almost every issue of our daily imperil , The public conscience is de bauched , so that the most flagrant crimes are committed with impunity in many places. One city claims to have had sixty-eight murders , and only one capital execution. Murders numbering many thousands of the late slaves in the south are rarely if ever avenged. General Sheridan , when in command in Louisi ana , counted -1000 in that state in four years , for which no punishment was in dicted. Murderers often walk out of our courts in the north unrobukod , and sometimes potted and lionixod , with their hands red with innocent blood. Frauds and peculations in high places , nnd oven armed rosistonco of revenue and election laws , have boon common of late in Homo portions of our country , nnd no adequate redress has boon realized as yet , nnd it is even doubted , whether n remedy is prac ticable. In almost all parti of the country , justice is paralyzed by a destruc tive interpretation of the rules of prac tice intho _ Idgal profession. No matter how vile a crime a man may commit , when ho is arraigned and presented for trial , plenty of lawyers for a foe , nro ready to move heaven and earth to de feat the purposes of criminal law , and turn those dangerous men back upon the bosom of society to practice their infernal arts , with increased boldness and suc cess , because of the immunity they have secured. The methods those criminal lawyers resort to , ought to make a highway man blush for shame. They will assume lu- naoy , self-defence , or any other lie as the theory of the defence , when they know it is a Ho , and then scrape all the witnesses that the criminal can gather among his confederates in crime , to swear him clear , and the witnesses on tlio part of the prosecution no matter how worthy and credible , nro badgered and irritated nnd insulted BO that if possible they nny ioio temper , and make sonic imprudent statements of which advantage can bo taken to save the wrntch. He is oven allowed to employ the vilest epi thets against witneeuus in the presence of the court and a crowded audience some times , and the witness must bear it in silence , while perjured witnesses are jlorificd by counsel. Thpno nro no rare occurrences , they are common in criminal trials , and the result is that the worst villains usually escape , nnd so6ioty 5 cursed with their exagger ated influence ; nnd respectable people dread the revenges to which they nro liable from the liberated villains , nnd nl- mont equally the tongue of the unscrup ulous counsel for the criminal , by whom they must submit to bo badgered by the dour without remedy , if they nro com- pplled to testify in the case. Such men is are capable of such service nro nothing bettor than hired conspirators against Inw and order. They are "accomplices after the fact , " and deserve to bo treated ns such. Their professional duty calls for no stich work in open violation of the manifest intent of the law. Honest men and women nro compelled by the authoritative voice of their country , to como forward to testify in court to facts in relation to crimes in their neighbor hood , and they must submit to any treat ment which the counsel for the prosecu tion may inflict , without reply , in the presence of an excited community atten tive to every word. They are sworn "to toll the truth , the whole truth , and nothing but the truth , " and their every word that bears unfavorably upon the culprit is ruled out if possible , explained nwny , or ridiculed and discredited if the court admits it. The attorney who would scorn to speak an impolite word in his own parlor or in that of the witness , now in this public place , whore every word is not only lioard , but sure to bo echoed by an in quisitive prosi throughout the country , the vilest epithets , charges of base per jury , are thrown out with a sangfroid worthy of a billingsgate fish woman. All for what ? To defeat public justice and procure freedom for a villain. These men are leagued with criminals against the peace and safety of society. They are doubly criminal , because they not only cheat the law in this particular case , but they multiply criminals nnd crimes indefinitely , by the impunity nnd safety they procure for criminals. A moro dan- porous sot of men would bo hard to find in the civilized world. Take them away , and rogues would tremble for their safety. Crimes would bo scarce if all lawyers would utterly refuse to help rogues to escape deserved punishment and only defend - fond them against in justice , and that they nro bound to do virtually by their nttor- noy's ' oath , and clearly by their duty to their country as citizens. Their false practice is the fruitful cause of n largo ihnro of the crimes that atj : t civilized countries. v r Every villain now know a that money , a percentage of his ill-gotten gains , will procure abln , influential , eloquent men , in credit with the court and the com munity , to become his confidential allies , and by their unscrupulous trickeries , hy- pocricica nnd lies ho can slip through the lingers of justice , nnd go out to renew his depredations upon society with increased assurance nnd boldness , with n tried "friend nt court" ready to lend a helping hand at any time. This attorney will chuckle over his successful tricks in cheating the law of a deserving victim , and his follow conspirators will con gratulate him on his shrewdness in tarry ing the case against both law and evi dence. They praise the ingenuity and skill with which ho "beguiled the jury by his sophistries , nnd sent back to an outraged community n man that had for feited hia right to citizenship , if not to life. Plenty of unprincipled villains can bo hired at n cheap rate to provo nn alibi or anything else to save n confederate in crime , and counsel ia ready to use them with extravagant eulogy , to secure the liberty of ono whom lid knows to bo juilty , and deserving of condign punish ment. His desire for a too and the glory of victory swallows up allhis love of country , justice and order in society. If such iboratod villains would turn and prey ipon their deliverers , and give them a ; aste of the cup they have mercilessly mingled for their follow citizens , they might possibly lenrn wisdom , but no they must bo snared , for they may bo wanted igain , and BO the bitter cup to its dregs B pressed to other lips. Thus all the valuable purposes of government are jttorly defeated , and by men who would jo shocked to bo told that they nro dos- stitutOof patriotic virtue , and are using til their legal learning and acumen for a 'oo to thwart public justice , and utterly destroy allt that is valuable in govern ment , and impose heavy burdens of taxes jpon the community for capturing , hold ing and trying criminals to increase their security and impudence , and give fat foes to thblr respectable confederates. Gov ernment ceases to bo of any value where it fails to execute wholesome laws , and tie is the worst enemy of his country who is intentionally the causa of such failure , [ lis position an counsel for n criminal furnishes no justification for any such thing as is claimed for it , by the apolo gists for these irregularities of the Iog l profession Ho has the same interest in the peace aud order of society as other men and can not throw off these obligations. His at torney's oath never could have boon in tended to fjivo him the light to forgot or lay aside his common interest in the wel fare of society , or that ho may cpaso to bo honest , truthful , ingenuous , polite and gentlemanly even in cross-examining wit nesses. Every attribute of n gentleman is often lent in the defender of a crim inal , and sometimes in civil suits. It is most likely to bo the casp when the evi dence of the piisonor'a guilt is painfully clear , and the defence difficult ; then des perate measures nro resorted to without scruple. How a citizen can so far sot aside his obligation to his country as to go to work deliberately to defeat the statutes of his country , and help villains to evade the penalties of just laws by subornation or niry-packinp , or corrupting a jury , spir iting away witnesses , perverting valid testimony by sophistry , misinterpreting law , wearing out the patient public by now trials nt great expense , and making criminal justice so uncertain that lynch- law is fast taking the place of regular ad ministration of justice , is moro than can bo accounted for on rational principles. The man it to bo pitied as well as blamed who can rise no higher in patriotic vir tue , Ho forfeits nil reasonable confi dence of his follow citizens. The only ofllco of government is to secure to all the inhabitants "life , liberty and the pursuit of happiness. " It accomplishes this end by a system of means that point out to all the citizens certain duties , aud forbids the doing of certain other things , to the harm nnd in violation of the right ! of others aud by prescribing penalties to wrong doors. It appoints persons who are jworn to arrest , hold and lawfully try and punish evil doors. Every citizen is solemnly bound to render his earnest aid in carry ing out those ontla of government. It is manifestly his duty to detect crime if possible , and expose it and assist in catching criminals , and freely , truthfully and impartially giving testimony tq thu proper tribunal , of all facU within hie knowledge that can assist in setting just judgments ngninst violators of the rules of society. No man can enter into nny compact , association or professional obli gation that can exonerate him from those fundamental duties to civil society. These civil obligations hnvo a priority over nil other human obligations They antedate all other , and nro of higher sig nificance than any other can possibly bo. IIorRfonl'a Acid Plioflitlmto.

One of the annoyances peculiar to this time of the year is the difliculty every body finds in selecting appropriate Christ mas gifts for his relatives nnd friends , Ono may hnvo unlimited means nt his disposal nnd bo utterly at n loss to know what to buy ; while another may have a very largo knowledge of what selection ho would like to make , but have no means at his disposal. So far as our own individual case in concerned , the chosen few whom wo number ns our friends nnd relatives belong strictly to the latter class. The following suggestions will bo found of value : A husband in selecting a present for his wife is confined to narrow limits. It must bo either n sealskin sacquo or diamond earrings. "But , " some of our readers oay , ' 'flho may ha\o both. " To which wo answer : It makes no difference ; no true wife will snilf at a sealskin sacquo era a pair of diamond earrings , provided they ccst a little more than the ones she already has. has.A A woman in selecting a present for her husband should first consider his comfort. Consequently n pair of slippers is the proper caper. If ho has'crodit nt n shoo store , the loving wife will got the very best. In former days wives used to make the slippers themselves , entertain ing the nbaurb notion that their husbands might prize them moro highly on that account. But those were the days when pumpkin pie was made out of such common truck as pumpkins , and didn't Imvo any nice nutmeg or cinnamon or cornstarch or extract of vanilla or ylang or hair oil , or any of those delicious in gredients which RO to makeup the modern scientific pumpkin pio. A sister should invariably present a u-rown brother with six hemstitched linen fiankcrchiofs and a pair of bright-colored , 25-cont cotton suspendora. To make the presentation as cllectivo as 'possible she should ahed tears happy , joyous tears , we moan , not those of a scalding , erief- laden character , for at the glorious Yule- Lido time the ho rt should bo failed with jlndnesa , not sorrow. A brother should give his sister a pound of French candy , n § 1.00 Jersey nnd nil of hia old neckties nnd scarfi for a crazy quilt. For the younger members of the fam ily , the little bojs should have drums and horns , and the little girls boxes of paint. 'Wo are n little bit timid in offering advice to lovers. Our scheme was a $75 Christmas card , and a volume of Mrs. Romans' poems bound in blue nnd gold. That thot scheme was successful can bo informed from the fact that wo1 now spend $10 a , month for shoes , and bought the second baby carriage only last week. The oldest son should receive from liis parunts jointly a prayer-book with n ton-dollar bill inclosed between the fly-loaf and the cover. Ho will take good care of the prayer-book and the prayer- book will take good care of the ten-dollar bill. Grandpa and grandma should bo re membered in the shape of easy-chairs. Anybody can sit in an easy-chair without danger , and , besides , it helps to furnish the house. Outside of the family and among friends one should spend as much money as pos sible , or ho will bo looked upon as mean. Your washerwoman should rccoiro a Christmas card. They can bo purchased this year for ono cent , which price brings them within the reach of the poor nnd lowly ns well as the high and mighty. Another very nice present for your wash erwoman , and ono that she will appre ciate , Is to pay her what you owe her.

When the erection of OrACO churcli was lommcncod in 1839 the intention of the } iiildng ! committco was to erect aatono ipiro , in kosping with the rest of the Duildipg. With this understanding the walls were mndo sulliciontly strong to mpport it. As the tower prow in height , however , the funds grow surprisingly less , and by the time the lower sills of the long Gothic windows near the top of the tower were reached it was found ncc- cssary to run light walls from there up \nd surmount thorn with a wooden spiro. It is for the purpose of strongthiniiig this part of the tow or that pulleys have been liauling materials into the boll loft for the last thrco months. The bolls , cloven in number have been * boxed up and sent down , and will not bo ro placed until the spire is completed , some time next sum mer. Tlio spire itself is to bo built of what is called Itarian marble , from the quarries of West Rutland , Vt. , and will cost ython completed about § (50,000. ( The style of architecture will bo in keeping with the rest of the building , what is technically known as decorated English ? othio of the second period ( from 1307 to 1377) ) . Commoncintj nt the top of-tho tower , cighty.fivo foot from the ground , the spire will bo of an octagonal form the cornices edged with beads for a distance of fifty-threo foot. At that point it will terminate in a cap center foUago on which the gables above will rest. At the snnio point the octagonal form will take nn eight turn nnd run a mmplo shaft to the apex , a distance os aixty.four feet. On the upper shaft the cornnrs will bo or namented with crockets , terminating in a very .elaborate linal.from which a twolvc- fpot cross will rise. The intention is to light the cross by electricity , but serious ilpubts nro entertained ns to its practica bility. The pannols in the lower spire will bo filled with tessellated work , and this , together with ejght Hying buttresses and four tracery windows , profusely or- oamontcd with gothic foliage , will give the spire a very much carved appear- anco. anco.Tho old spire had its ghost story , ivliich , among the superstitious , was the : rue reason for its demolition. It is posi tively assorted by the aforesaid class of people that at 3:15 : in the morning of a : ortain day in the year not mentioned , Jio chimes would ring a most weird liar- nony ; a phantom form would appear in ; ho tower , which upon pursuit would re cede like ' vanish into a will-o'-tho-wiap and to the upper recesses of tlio spiro. When the now spire is completed it will bo 214 foot high , making the thir teenth spire in Now York over 200 feet in height. Old Trinity spire , of course , is the lighcst , not only in Now York but in the jountry. being 298 foot from the ground iuo to the top of the cross. It was the Irst stone spire commenced in the coun try , though the spire on the Presbyterian church at Tenth street and University > lace a much smaller one was finished irat. Both spires nrn of Little Falls , N. J. , stono. In Trinity n staircase loads to within 00 feet of the top , the iirat 70 loot being of solid stono. The Trinity stecplo is in the perpendicular style in troduced when gothic architecture in England , has assumed its last nnd third period , between 1399 and 1540. It com- aines the stiff statclincsa and sharp angles of the first or early English with the pro- iuso decoration and curved lines of the second. The four niches in the tower of Trinity , below the clock , were built to'rcciovo the statutes of the four evangelists , but for some reason these have never .boon placed there , and their original uao now seems to have boon forgotten. The most striking landmarks in Now York , wliothercoming up the bay or down the river or overlooking the city from the leights of some steeples , are the bridge towers. Devoid of all architectural beauty , these piles of stone attract the eye by : heir simple massiyoncss. Perhap | the aest place from which to see the city , cer tainly the place from which most people doeo , is the bridge itself. From this point not only are four hundred church ipiros are visible , but at least half asmany moro domes nnd towers of public und pri vate buildings. When this century was young but thrco would have boon notico- iblo , of which only ono is now standing St. Paul's , opposite The Herald ollicu. [ ts spirp ; which was at that time n narvol , is oven now among the highest in the city. The other two the old Brick Mooting , which stood where The Times building is now and St. George's chapel , at the corner of Bookman and Clilt' streets have long ainco boon de molished. Thosp who have over taken the trouble to notice have doubtlesi won dered why the spire on St. Paul's was placed at the back of the church instead 3f on the Broadway end. When the church was built in 1700 , Broadway at that point was but nn insignificant lane nnd Church street quito nn important thoroughfare. But when in later years Broadway ' .was opened and Church street sank 'into insignificance , the old entrance was stopped up , the Broadway portico built and the facing of the church reversed. An interesting story of neglected genius is connected with the same church. It was modeled after St. Martin's-in-tho- Fields in London ; and though much superior to the original , and 0110 of the finest specimens of lleiiaiaaanco architec ture in the city , the name of the architect has boon lostand the mauwhosomoniory < would to-day bo honored as a master in his profession is unknown. A great monotony in steeple-building is noticeable in Now York , the orthodox form being n single front spire of gothia design. In England a double front of three towers ia tlio favorite , while on the continent a double front of two towers and the center tower are moat frequently scon , As an old architect remarked. "A center tower , with its necessary columns in the church , wouldn't do for our Amor- icon ministers ; they want an open space like a theater.
