the sickles case that appear to us eminently just the world has had bad mr john graham by telegraph for the last twenty four hours we shall not consider ourselves rash it if we venture to say that a stranger opening argument has ha never been madea made evell even by b a new york criminal lawyer than that of mr john graham in iii the sickles trial which at present fills the newspapers of the country with its verbose farcical solemnity mr graham seem to be one of those fluent speakers of whom hem A campbell remarks that they have not so much command of language as their language an has command of them no matter matte liow how aim simple Is or axiomatic a statement is is to be made he wreathes around it so many artificial flowers of rhetoric he overlays it with so much tawdry ornamentation that the wearied mind refuses to search for the hidden point his argument seems only adapted to a justices court of the time of of aleh when the life of man was nine nine hundred years for it is is quite out of proportion to the present allotted age of three score years and ten passing without comment over the absurd and impious argument drawn from the bible passing over his statement to the jury ury that they were to pronounce the estimate of 0 an american jury on the value of the marriaga bed passing over his comparison pari sori of the killing of key to the execution 0 f the condemned baltimore murderers passing over his unchristian remark that to an injured husband there remains only suicide or murder we must protest in the name of the women of america against the insulting estimate put upon female chastity and strength of v virtue by the argument of mr air graham ile he commenced by telling the jury that had key not been slain their own on wives and daughters I 1 ers would not have been sare safe that th they fighters ight in might 1 lit have been marked for seduction and that they bey would have been called upon to satisfy the insatiate appetite of the deceased ce a sed 1 ile he then told the twelve intelligent men before him that if an action for damages was to be the only redress against the a abes adulterer ul their wives lived in in a very avery perilous atmo atmosphere here and the they might as v well ell let the infamy come at once he next stated that woman weman was the weaker vessel vesel that her name iva was a frailty and that the strong arm of her husband was needed to restrain her within the paths of rectitude and so on through his entire address he was constantly implying that the general character of woman was such that a libertine had only to beckon to her and she would follow him with eager wantonness to her own destruction it is is impossible le for us to know from whom mr graham has gained his bis ideas of female vir virtue but either his associations have been I 1 most n Os it unfortunate or else his own nature is deplorably incapable of appreciating the character of woman there is is no fortress so impregnable as the citadel of a virtuous wo homans womans marts heart eart there is is a power in in the at silent influence of female chastity to make a strong man quail and become as an infant are we w e to be told that the only protection we have against the adulterer in in heart is is the fear he has of the husbands avenging aral that our wives w ives and sisters have no safeguard of r d in in the purity of their own souls but tf that at it if our physical protection is is removed they will fall at once into the palpable snare the remarks of the counsel referred to are insulting to the dignity of every virtuous woman in the land shame on that man who dares to judge adge of female honor by the conduct of that wife and mother who woul I 1 go from her husbands house at the wave of a handkerchief to a pipes of deliberate assignation and there give h herself to the embraces of a para paramount paramo url As a compensation tor for w weakness eckness of of the body there is given to woman a strength bength of soul more mighty than the strength of armies and in defence of her purity she will awe by her moral power the boldest libertine that ever defied the laws of god or man yet mr graham seems to ehrk thirk that bolts and bars bare alone can keep her her from the degradation of lust W we e PI pity it il him u upon pon whom no better appreciation of ake the n nobility am of woman has ever dawned |
