The Ward Case.

AS cur readers are probably inter
ested IL this case which has awakened
such universal interest, we append
the following in relation to the kill
ling and trial which We ather from
an exchange:
Professor ". II. G.. Battle IF, gen
tleman o. excellent character and fine
education, was formerly a private
teacher in the Ward family, who are
wealthy citizens Of Louisville, and BY
whom Butler was highly esteemed.
At the time Of the murder, however,
he kepta school ofa superior grade
in that city, and had for a pupil a
brother Of Mathew f. Ward, named
William. This b oy had broken the
rules of.the schoo by bringing chest
nuts and distributing them among
some of the boys, who threw shells
under theaseats. This attracted the
attention of Mr. Butler, who inquired
into the matter, and the fault was
fastened on William Ward, who lat
first denied it. Mr.. Butler then cor
rected the boy foT breaking the rules,
and for lying. \ Matthew F. Ward,
the next morning on hearing of it,
repaired to a gun smiths shop and
purchased tw 0 ri4 tolls, and had them
lohded, and in company with Ills
brother, r. j, Wa rd, also armed, and
VIM. Ward, proce eded to the school,
inquired for Mr. Butler, who came
out ofan adjoining room, and after
"A short alteration, shot him through
the lungs. Mr.. Butler died the next
night.
The principal witnesses agains The
accused were The scholars Of Mr.. But
Ter, who were present in the school
room at the time.

ST. ALL THE MAJORITY RULE? The
principle that the majority shall GO
vern Is the enduring rock upon which
our Who'll g republican system rests.
1t presided at the Declaration of In
dependence. II is the very soul Of
tie Constitution, 1t pervades all our
laws, whether federal, State, or mum
icipal. 1t is the accepted arbiter be-
fore which all popular controversy
must yield at last. It's the calm but
resistless adversary Of violence and
tyranny. Everywhere it is adopted
and followed. The church seeks shell
ter from the polemics of theological
d:sputation in the principle of the
majority. 1t is often a cheaper and
more peaceful process for settling
the troubles of communities and of
individuals tEdn the law itself. The
majority principle is truly the peo-
pies safeguard, and the m est ambi-
tious aspirations are subsidiary to it.
The man, or the men, who attempt
to defeat this great princi pie should
remember that they are playing
bold and dangerous gaI ne. They
that sow the storm reap the whifl-
wind. The American beople have too
often marked their sense Of every ef-
fort of this description, and represen-
tatives should remember That they
may commend their own instructions
to their lips. Forewarned is forearm
ed.
