He did not eaccuse the men who made the scene in the poâ€"‘ lice court, nor attempt at all to shield them / from the punishment their actions deserve, but he did see and point out very clearly that the ofiences of these men should not stampede council out of its proper course, or into taking upon itself functions that belong wholly to an- other body. . - __'.
