ISirORTAST DECISION’— THE L1QEOR LAW

AMftHER LETTER FROM COV. W1 >E. 1 i New York, A tig. 4.—The Herald of, this morning publishes a letter, iep:e-. !sented to be written by Gov. Wise, to a; diitinguished friend of his in this Sale,| in which he says: j j "I have apprehended all along, that! the Tammany Regency would carry lbe| United delegation from New York to Charleston, of which—Donglas i k aow | ( is confident; but you may rely on it, that; ; Mr Buchanan is himself a candidate for j : re-nomination, and all hia patronage and) ; power will be used to disappoint^Digital and dll other aspirants. Our >n!y chance is to organize by districts and ; |either whip the enemy, or send two delegations, If'that rsdone, or not dine, we must slilTrely on a united South. "A united South will depend on ajini 1 ted Virginia, and I pledge you that she, at (east, shall be a unit, Virginia’'!* a unit, persistent and firm on a sound plat" form of protection to all persons ofjfopUlar versus Squatter Sovereignty? ‘She ninstrally to hersuppoit the whole So ith. i The South cannot adapt Mr. Douj las* | platform. It is a short cut to all the! ends of Black *RepubIioanl e m. lie wilt; then kick bp bis heels, T If he does, or*, don’t, he can’t be nominated, and the | main argument agaijislhis nomination is, that he cannot be elected if nominated. If he runs as an independent candidate, and Seward runs, and I am.nominated at the Charleston Convention, I can beat them both; or, if SqiiaUcr SoTercigntyisa plank of the platform at CharIfelon,;and Douglas is iioiiiinou|d, the South will;run an independent candidate, on protection principles and tun the election into the j House.*: Where then would Mr; Douglas j be I The lowest candidate oh the list. If I have the‘pop«Iar strength you suppose; it wUVUself fix the nomination.— * Get that and l am confident of success."

During tbo period of bis incarceration, bo bad served upon bim a notice to set asido a judgment he bad *reocvoted in tbo Supreme Court.

•Ex Paste, Crothans.— Habeas Corput before Judge Perkins.

Joseph Grotbans, an adult white male citizen, was convicted, before a Justice of the Peace of Wayne county, of retailing without license, and committed. He obtained a writ of habeas corpus and claims to be discharged. from his imprisonment on two grounds: 1st. That the liquor law is unconstitutional. 2d. Because he says that he applied for license, presented to the Commissioners certificates of his good moral-character, offered to pay the amount prescribed for license, and to execute a sufficient bond, &c., hut that the Commissioners, nevertheless, refused'him license. 1 am not prepared to say that the liquor 'lavj of 1659 is uncoostilutonal in any particular. Under the decision in Reed r*. the Slate, at the present term of the Supreme Court, I should not feel atliberty to say that racengruous subjects were united in this law, or that it did not conform to its title. The business of retailing liquors in small quantities, t* be d:ank upon the premises ra which,they are sold, his always been regarded hs tending to draw together idle persons in such numbers arid in such conditions, as might produce noise and. tumult, perhaps breaches of the peace ,in short, nuisances; and hence, tike shaws, rope-dancing exhibitions, billiard saloons, 4c., to be subject to stringent regulations on the,part of the' Stale, tending to prevent such evil. * The power of regulation exists under the present Constitution. As a condition upon which these pursuits may be followed, a license may be requited. •The Statute is imperative tha t a license! shall be granted to every citizen of this State upon compliance with certain conditions. The law is general and uniform. Such license will authorise the perabn possessing U to sell upon six days lit tle week, and on more. It does not extend lb Sunday and a sale on that day is iile* gal. But every person who applies to the Commissioners for license, and complies, or offers to comply, with alt the requirements of the law, is entillcd to license. The Commissioners are bound lb grant it. ■ •' * In Ibis case Ihfepel it ioncr asserts that be did comply, and offer to comply w ith the taw; and having done so, and been re fused'a license, be claims that he cannot be punished selling without a ■license.

The Society is now firmly established, lias n permanent location, and is out of debt. The Officer's and Directors of the Society this year are gentlemen of indnslry and perseverance, end all of them interested; -in. the success and prosperity'of the Society, and under their administration, backed as they are by the bone and sinew of,the country, wo anticipate a more prosperous year than ever before.

-I Perhaps,' though , no opinion is given upon the-point, if the facts asserted are true, the position assumed by the petitioner is correct. But where and how is it to be determined whether the party did really comply, and offer to comply with the whole law I How is it to he ascertained whether the Commisiotiers illegally rejected his petition 1 Perhaps it was his duty, when the Commissioners rejected his application, to appeal to the Circuit or Common Pleas Court. If not, and the fact of (be refusal of license, was pne which could avail in a prosecution for telling without license, should have been pleaded before the Justice. Per haps it was so pleaded in this case and hot proved,, If so, the conviction of the ih* fondant was right. And, it may be observed, certificates would not he proof of character. The Commissioners might require the testimony of witnesses. It is clear that this objection can not be raised upon a writ of huLeaicorput. The law being constitutional, Ibe writ upon the conviction before the Justice under which the officer holds the petitioner in bustody, being, regular, is a sufficient Cause for the detention in custody, ;V Tha: petitioner is retpanded.

If, there is any sentiment which the American people cherish and which tier ought to require from public men, it is political morality among those who aspire to ibeir'suffrages. This letter is calculated, in the strongest degree, to shake the confidence of the people in this respect. : If a political adventurer, hereafter actuated by o profligate , disregard for consistency and patriotism, snoutd wish to a thotftrieal defence of his abberations, he might find it'm T .ms ciuauiJ;nary letter of Gov.

In fact, the people of Indiana, as a general thing, have too little local and Statopridoin everything; ina word, they have not been true to themselves.
