Quinry Whig. CiacUMITiKCEl ALTER CSES The Indiana Amrrinin, (by tbe way one of the best family newspapdrs ol tbo State) has taken the judicial vagaries of Judge Perkins under ;vcial charge, and shows conclusively that the ttiKtuirt.s of the Judge as a cltir.cn. and his decisions as -a partisan jurist, are irreconcilable. Somo time ago, Judge Perkins was strongly impressed with the belie!, that slaughter bouses, jeopat-dir.ing the health of the citiaens generally, ami especially when near Ao aim per sotinl property, wore u nuisance, and ought to be abated by law. A few days since, several houses of evil famo wore 'washed out, by the Indianapolis fircmou. Judge Perkins being on the stand as a witness, mid having porperty in tho immediate vicinity of these houses, whic h was consequently depreciated iu value, gavo unequivocal testimony in favor of the suppression of ull such posts of society and good morals. Judge 'Perkins was right tbr once. Why not, when filthy doggeries at every cross road, and in every village and hamlet, are dealing out death and destruction, und when the great interests of Immunity arc at stake, whv not, as Supreme Judge, render a decision for the suppression of the evils of intemperance, honorable to him as a man, und t-rcditabte to him ns a Judge.
