to accede to the scale, and 'the movement has ea'
tended to newspapers. At New Jersey there has
been a strike among the printers, and the True
American was indebted to some gentlemen, editors
and others, who had been trained as compositors,
for bringing the paper out. The clothiers believe
that their strike will soon be successful. The
coopers, who have lately closed a very extensive
strike, have got up another, so there is a good
deal of legitimate warfare going on ; but I an)
sorry to add that the war of ruffians against
society is still more threatening. The jadgel
have been driven by public opinion into severe,
measures for the suppression of crimes 191
violence and robbery, lately so increasing fre-
quent. The ruffians, evidently alarmed at the
treme severity of the sentences awarded, have bee°,
making demonstrations. Around the Court
General Sessions they assembled in large numbers,
well arrded, and assumed a defiant attitude, bet
some police being brought up they had to give
way. Commissioner Rollins was pat on the stand
to give evidence in the trial of the Mbfienry per"
jury case, and for a long time was questioned as
to what he bad received from members of the
whisky ring. The examination was as close and
as ugly as it could well have been made. On the
28th May the counsel for the prosecution seemed
under the impression that on the 28th MaY 5
package had been placed in Mr. Rollins' hands by
a Mr. Loeb, and his questioning on this point we°,
very close. As it was plumply denied, he turns'
to Mr. R. Rollins' history, which he extracted to
the mot minute particulars. He practised law at
Summerwell, New Hampshire, and earned about
$2,000 annually. For five or six years be worked
with another gentleman, with whom he left Liis
s
books, but with whom he has not yet settled.-
became cashier of the Internal Revenue, and after'
wards was promoted to deputy-commissioner, which
raised his salary from $2,500 to $3,000. In Nov'
1865, he was made Commissioner, and the salar,:,'
which had been $4,000, was increased to s6l°°,`"
After eliciting this information the question s":
suddenly put—" Are you a man of property?', to
which the reply was as prompt, " Not much, sir.
His real property consists of two lots at his hole'
small unimproved track in Kansas, and half °is
unimproved portion at Rochester. Q. What
its value? " Less than $l,OOO ; I would sell it to
you for that." The last, question of the verYlellg
examination rvlated again to the mysterious PO',,
age, which the lawyer imagined had been received

by Mr. Rollins from Mr. Loeb.
The defeat of the Negro Suffrave Amendment i°
the Kansas Senate on the 16th February is pote
coura2ing to the proposed 15th Amendment
the Constitution. The question before the I°ll,
sas Legislature was whether the word "
should be stricken out of the Constitution, and it
was decided in the negative by 17 to 14. Xallsg
wasthe State that suffered most in the cause3l of
negro emancipation, and where the most effecituve
stand was made against the extension of '31%,
territory ; and, with some inconsistency, the Le°ol,l
lature which declined to alter its own Constitutla,
has been the first to ratify the proposed Armen
ment to the Constitution of the United States.
