A Coon THISG.-Mr. Pelton, Of New York,
Of the Committee of Commerce of the House
OF Representative at Washington, has pre-
sented report to that body, accompanied by
bill entitled "a bill to authorize the Prss-
dent Of the United States to cause to be pro-
cured, by purchase or otherwise q suitable
steamer, to be stationed at the port OF New
York as revenue cutter, and for the purpose
of afiording relief to distressed vessels their
passengers and crews" Let the bill pass. Is
is little thing in view Of the prodigious out
going and incoming commerce of New York
and considering the yearly sacrifice Of NUN
Lille from vessels stranded along our treacher-
ous coast, and considering the revenues which
the government derives from our Custom
House, and considering the heavy and accu-
mulating surplus Of the treasury, it is little
thing, this bill for a solitary steam revenu
cutter for the line of duty Indicated but it is
something 1t is beginning towards some
comprehensive and liberal plan for the Sc
curity Of life and property along our whole
Atlantic seaboard, and especially in front of
the breakers Of Long Island and the JERSEY
shore; and as q beginning. we would urge the
member charged with the bill to see that It is
not suffocated among the unfinished business
Of this session.

The second trial of Louis Baker for the murder of

rising of the Court only five jurors had been empan-

instance of the influence of newspapers in giving
tone to the public mind. Out of a panel of five
hundred jurors, nearly two hundred and fifty were
excused for various causes Of incompetence. Out Of
one hundred and six who answered to their Names
ninetyve per cent had formed an opinion as to the
guilt or innocence of the accused, and were of
