The CASE OF On. HOLMES, the murderer has been
carried up TO the United States Courts. The ques-
ton involved is most important one, and we shall
have to recapitulate the principal facts in the case
IN order TO its proper understanding.
Some years since, young DR.. Holmes cmigrated
from the United States to Lower Canada There
he formed an acquaintance with Canadian gentle
man named Tasche, and his wife, which led to
criminal intimacy with the latter. After living some
time in infamy, he finally murdered Mr.. Tasche, and
fed to the States from the vengeance Of the law, he
had outraged. He apprehended in Vermont,
and a requisiion made for him by the Canadian au-
thorities Gov. Jenison referred il to the President
Of the United States The President decided that
he had no jurisdiction in the premises and referred
1t back TO Gov. Jenlson who on mature delibers-
tion, decided 10 surrender the murderer, and issued
the requisite order. But the execution Of this or
der stayed by the suing out Of a writ Of habeus
corpus from the Supreme Court Of the State, con
testing the legality Of Gov tensions procedure and
denying his power 10 surrender a man accused of a
crime TO a foreign jurisdiction. This issue has
been argued before the Supreme Court, and the
course of the Governor justified by its decision-one
Judge (the rawest on the bench) alone dissenting
From this decision appeal HIS been taken 10 the
Circuit Court OF the United States, whence IL will
probably be carried up To the Supreme Court, and
thus the galows be deirauded OF It's honest dues for

From the st. Louis Republican,


The people often wonder what becomes of the
money which the sub-treasurers subtract from the
pockets of Uncle Sam. 1.-THE following communi-
cation, which we find in the Alton Gazette, good
Loco Foco journal be true, may account for the
dus operanA by which least some portion of it is
squandered. The communication is hac perJa
On the 9th inst young man. calling his name
George w Dalton, arrested on board the steam
boat North STAR at Alton, for swindlng or winning
$500 from A Cooley, Indian agent. When the
prisoner was arrested no money could be found up
ON him. We were well aware he had not lost the a.
mount but he was too smart for the Indian agent
All we could get from him was, he had lost the mon
ey the same way he won it. He had been held to
bail in Lee county, Iowa territory, TO the amount of
$4,000.
II this be true, and the editor says nothing to the
contrary, what should be the course of the Govern
ment' lfher agents, who necessarily have the hand
ling of large sums of money, will indulge in gam
bling on boats on the ler, where the prof t nal
gambler and blackleg may always be found, should
they be retained in her service. No prudent mer-
chant would keep an agent or clerk, whom he knew
TO be guilty OF this practice, and if the Government
retain such men, we need not wonder that Texas is
populating rapidly.

the officers for the purpose of addressing them on
