The FoREIGN News AND THE CuNARD STEAM
ERs.-In common With the entire city press We
nave complained of the refusal of the offers of
the Cunard steamship Canada to give new
paper to the agent Of the Associated Press, Oft
the Hook, last Friday morning We desire to
get INC news as early as possible, but we are
also willing to do full justice to everybody.
The steamship officers have been often subject
to annoyance in consequence of our rigid reye-
nue. laws. If a petty officer or seaman 90 board
ship attempts to smuggle any article SUBJECT to
duty the ship is seized, and the law requires the
owners TO give bonds to the amount of her
value-a tri6e of half million or so--beforc
she is allowed to depart. This is very trouble
some; and in order to escape the danger, the
company has decided that nothing shall leave
the ship without permission of the revenue
officer. The carrying out Of this rule will de-
prive US o. an early paper and keep the news
from the public during several hours. But we
cannot justly blame the officers Of the ship.
The Secretary Of the Treasury SD uld waive the
rule as lar as one paper fos the Sandy Hook
telegraph station is concerned Will he do II,
and thereby obligc all parties!

VERDICT IN THE GRAHAM CAsE.-We think we
stall interpret correctly the public senti linen,
j. we say that the VERDICT Of the jury which
found Graham guilty OF manslaughter in the
S. cond degree has been received with satsfac
tion by The community at large. Some, no dout I
considering the circumstances of the case, regrc.
that the crime was not held to have amounted
to murder. But the bulk Of thinking men will
probably concur III regarding an impriso .ment
OF not less than four or more than seven years
as an adequate penalty for savage outburst
Of ill-regolatad passion. The mofal effect OF
the verdict will be salutary. 1t wi teach
strangers as we'll as citizens that the oalit Of
using murderous weapoas will not be tolerated
in this State. The class of men who choose to
quarrel and have so little command over their
passions as to resort to personal violence, will
be taught by the Graham verdict that they
must slake their rage with their fists. We 10
not pretend to be judges of that sort Of thing;
but for our part we should tbick that a wound
ed sense Of ehivalry might derive as muco So
lace from bloody nose or black eye as from
a pistol ball through the head or sword cane
through the lungs. It is all matter of taste,
however: some people may be too f.stidious
;or the former; but it is now certain that the
laws Of New York will not tolerate the latter
mode Of aveng ne On insult This is great
point gained; and whatever may be said Of the

Clough-(Smiling)- I used to 90 into it

twelve to twenty five dollars per hundred.
Sherif-Did you pass il yourself!
Clough--Not very often. usually sold it.

Sheriff-U2on what hank was tho counter

Clough-It was chiefly Indiana monov-
Some of it was exceedingly we'll done. Tho

he was in the habit OF travelling upon the Lakes

large quantities. Most of the bills he bought
were manufactured in Cincinnati. and some
upon the Canada line. He saws all classes of

He says every third man he met travelling
in Michigan was moro or less dealing in coun-
terfeit money. That he stated as his own cal

six or seven years. He says that men who
are engaged IN passing counterfeit money en-

From the play Of Uncle Tom.
Only by the mind Of Barnum,
Throbbing with assureds ucce.s,
Can the holders build their palace,
