Mcleod and enbroil us il O war with Eng
land~~and yet the abb raises many diff
culties in our mind. How strange that so
active partizan as Mcleod, who had just
been round Navy Island on a lookout for
the Caroline-who must have known that
AN expedition was ON foot to destroy her
should start off at Z o'clock of dark night
over a heavy road to Stamford, stay there
through the eventful night without any Vlsl-
BILE motive, and start back for Chippewa
ueXt morning.! 1t seems marvellous to u.s.
The current hypothesis that he was on
terms OF special intimacy with Lieut.. Nor
rison's oldest daughter Is entirely unSup-
ported by facts. That daughter was then
young girl, was married to another man
nearly two years afterward, was deserted
by him, and attcrward became the para
mour OF Mcleod. Nothing like this exist
ed in 1887, or could have existed in her ia
theirs house.
And now a word respecting the character
and conduct of this trial, which has already
excited very general remark. That the de-
fence of Mcleod has been thorough and
mastery none will doubt who are acquaint-
ed with the industry and vigilance of the
junior counsel, who have nearly employed
the summer in getting it up, and the distln-
guished legal ability, acuteness, and foren-
sic power of Mr.. J. A. Spencer. Nor do we
believe that any one who attended the trial
we will not speak for others-could be
less than satisfied with the ability, energy,
and eloqucnce with which the prosecution
was sustained. We do not regret that Judge
Gridlcy ruled throughout very strongly and
obviously in favor of the prisoner. That
prisoner was stranger among US, exposed
to strong National prejudices on every side,
on trial for what is "a grave offence in the
eye of our law, but which, if committed in
obedience to his lawful superors and in
warding off the footsteps of invasion from
the soil Of his country, can hardly be re-
garded as implying moral culpability. We
rejoice, therefore, that he received more
than fair, IL favorable trial, and that the re-
suit is almost necessarily his acquittal.-N.

A RELIC OF THE TRAITOR ARNOLD

We saw this morning the identical sign
that used to hang over the store of Benedict
Arnold, when he traded in Water street, in
this city, and we present below copy of
it as near as a sign can be copied on paper.
II is about three and half feet long and two
and a half broad. The sign is black, and
the letters look at first glance as if put on
with yellow paint; but ON close inspection,
they are discovered to be gilt.
The sign was found some time since in the
garnet of the house In which Arnold lived,
Opposite his store,) and is now the property.
we learn, of Mr.. Jacob T. Hotchkiss, who
has permitted it to be deposited in the Muse
UNI. We have followed the style, proper
ton, and pointing of the letters on the sign
| very nearly. There was one popularity,
however, that we could not we'll initiate, viz {:
the dots of the is in the moito-which on the
sign are inverted commas instead of mere
dots. 1t will be seen that there is no point
between the name and the occupation. Both
sides OF the sign are almost precisely alike
The motto. "Sibi Totique," is translated thus
=" For himsey-.tor The achoie"-or .tor all"
The first sentence is most decidedly appro-
priate to tho man. who was for himself" in

More Murder.-Yesterday morning, Mr..
Borhees, foreman of the works on the forti-
fication on Staten Island, sent three men in
boat to go in search Of another bout, which
was missing, and supposed to have been
stolen on the evening previous. Nothing
was heard Of the men in the boat until about
8 o'clock last evening, when the people on
the island shore were alarmed by loud and
vociferous shouts of murder murder help,
&C., from some boat on the water. Three
men Immediately put off to the place, and
rourId ono man, who had been sent off in
the morning in the boat. with his arm bro
ken, and severely gashed with knife
His head was also badly cut in two places,
and he appeared to be very much intoxica-
ted, and had bottle on board, from which
he was about to drink, when he was pre-
vented. His first exclamation was IL have
killed them both and thrown them over
board; they tried to kill me, but was too
much for them" He was then taken ashore
and put in the guard house in charge of
some Of the officers. The boat was cover
cd with blood, and bore evidences of Sc
we're struggle. The bodies of the missing
men, whose names are Christopher Dun
nington and jeremiah Lucy, have not been
recovered. They were married men, and
have each left wife and three children
The name of the survivor is not known; he
states that he recently deserted from the
British army. Drunkenness is no doubt the
cause of the affray.-N. Y. Star.

When Arnold was in London, we are at

VIE undersgn having purchased controlling

suea DAILY PAPER from this office on or about

The paper will be devoted to the supper, of such
constitutional measures as the interests Of the Peo-
pie may demand--and from what has buen seen
Of the purposes of President Tyer's Administra-
ton, there Is every reason to believe that such
mcasuIers only are in contemplation by the present
head Of the Government.
We propose to labor for the cniiro restoration OF
the pure doctrines and faithful practices of the lnun
dcrs of our Repubc-llot TO battle for the mere
exatai0n Of party ism dctaiors. 10 advocate those
principles Of our patriotic fathers which were TO-
gelher designed 10 ensure the prosperity and hap
plness Of the Coniederacy, in their original puriely
not to tear down the modern fabrics of demo-
gogues 10 erect pedestas for other ambitious and
dishonest asplranls. In short, 1t Is our design to
pursue the RIGHR, alike needless OF party names
aud party interests, ana to expose the WRONG,
cnani,e from what men or in what sections it may.
Bu, 1t Is lar from our intention ever TO indulge IN
wnnton and vulgar abuse. Yet We will not suer
the men and measures we advocate to be unjus,ly
aspersed aud wronsfully cssaied with lmpunlty.
Heartily approving tho independent course pur-
sued by the President during the late eyraordna-
-
n, fitting period, to place before the public oil
the circumstances connected with the origin aud
fate ofthe two Bank bills.
That the DAILY MADI5ONIAN may merit the
support Of the community Unfortunately, the
undersgn is resolved 10 bring TO his assistance in
the editorial department the bost political and lite
rnry talent that can be secured In aid Of this pur-
pose, an able and experienced European cores

gress of things in the old world of which he is ca
pablo. This enterprise, we trust, will be duly
appreciated by our subscribers.
