A city cotemporary, in noticing our account Of
the hoegipg of Netherlands "boys," admits that
if the facts were as stated, it was al atrocous
piece of business but suggests that tho story may
have been exaggerated for the Northern market
All we know about the matter is that we followed
the statement of Southern religious newspaper,
and the declarations Of clergyman who mas been
acceptable to the shareholders for nine years. The
history was therefore probably correct. The boy
was no doubt logged behind tho Second Church,

We have charged The Nec- York Express with
treachery to the party it pretends to support and
it has not dared to respond. 1t has picked pas,
sages out of our proofs of the treachery to which
it makes some sort of reply; but to the accusation
itself, it silently pleads guilty. Tint paper pro-
fesses to support the American party, and is
daily egsing on that party to nominate State
Ticket which i. virtually promises to support,
while all the time it is doing its utmost to elect not
the American ticket, but that Of the Save De
mocracy 1t is to help that party in its desperate
struggle for power that it pretends to be "Ameri
can" while all its indications and arguments, its
leaniDgs and its lbels, look to securing triumph
for the New York allies Of the Border Ruffans
We eeprecste 10 fair, manly opposition. We
support 10 principle, no measure, no candidate, IN
whose behalf we do not court the most rigorous
scrutiny. We would have all men free as air to
vote against us if they do not think with us. But
let us have civilized, not savage, aHtagOnism in
politics. Let each display his true cOlOrs and
stand or fall with them the public judgment shall
decree. But this displaying the flag of one party in
order to win success for another IL not honest. 1t
is not the manly frankness of patriot, but the cum
ming dodge of pirate. Its aim 70 keep the Anti
Slavery portion of the Americans voting hopeless
ticket while the Pro-Slarery portion vote directly
for the Save Democracy Let us see who consent
to be the decoy candidates of this unworthy jugg.e

The Hon. G. W. H. Deyereux did not consider that

800 delegates were present. The Hon. Is. g. Barker

Mr. Barker, on taking the chair, made 0 short
speecb, advocating the principles Of the Springfield
Platform and saying that part OF the mesios Of the
American psIty was TO defeat the party that was ex
ding Slavery, the only way to dc which was to cot
oil the Illegal and Nducuent foreign VOters, on Whic1
that party relies. He referred to the spread of er-
can principles in other States Of the Union from which
he crew favorable sugury tsfI. y
The hon A. C. Cary, in a speech, said that n. p.

exhibition. which was denounced by the Press,
was very shiny attended except By detectives and
reporters. TIE narrative, which be read from
manuscript was little. more than an exhibition OF
the expepsiveness of his family and a begging
appesl for money. When called upon to explain
how il was that his wife kuew where the
money was at first he declined to go into
an, explanations, suggesting instead that, even sup
pose be was the guilty man, it was dreadful
thing 10 have the "sacred band of matrimony de-
stroyed by his wife" and that there might be
domestic fights, which it would not be very
feeling in him to enter into an explanation OF.
On the second night, he was reminded by one OF
the audience that his acquttal rendered it per-
fecty safe for bin to tell the whole story and even
to confess himself guilty. Spollen seemed almost
ready to fall in with this suggestion, when his
soL-not one of the witnesses against him, but
erown.up son, who acted as money-taker to the
perfoymance-rushed in, and in the most excited
manner begged him to answer no such questions
The English papers are attacking with yehe-
mence the rule that prohibits the wife from beng
witness assinst her husband, and some of them are
little disposed to acquiesce in the doctrine laid
down in the judges charge, that it is bette! for
ninety nine guilty men to escape than for one inno-
cent man to suffer. An attempt has been made to
secure the partial punishment of Spolen by arrest
ing him on q new charge of TObbng Mr.. Little,
the man Of whose murder he has been acquitted.
Among other curious circumstances connected with
the case is the following: The Dublin Police not
having given satisfaction to the law officers in their
way of investigating the matter, detectives were
sent FROM England to sssist them. But at THE,
rational jealousy took fire, and therceforward the
efforts of the Dublin Police were directed not to
the detection of the criminal but to throwing Obsta-
cles in the way of their London assistants.

HE JAPASEsE.-The head Of every
Japanese family is responsible for his
children. his servants, and the strangers
within his gates. A city is divided into
collections of five families: every mem.
ber OF each division being made answer.
able for the conduct OF the others. Every
extraordinary occurrence which falls cut
in a household is thus reported TO the civil
administration by four witnesses. House
arrest is the usual penalty for irregular
conduct. The doors and windows OF the
offenders house are closed, generally for
hundred days his employments are
suspended; salary, if any, stopped; and
the friend and the barber alike for
bidden entrance. Each household is held
bound tc produce a man capable OF bear
ing arms. Guard houses are established
in every street in the city. Each street
has barrier at its issues, and can be cut
Oft from communication with the rest Of
the city at moments notice. No one
can change his residence without obtain.
ing certificate of good conduct from
khC ilC iS dUouS ~ t0o'Cs otu
permission from those among whom he
wishes to reside. In consequence OF this
thorough organization, the empire is said
70 afford no hiding places for criminal,
and robberies are Sc dom committed. With
regard TO physical attributes. We may oh
serve that the Japanese men are general
y stronger and more hardy than the Chi
nese. The fishermen of the coas, hav"
capabliiy Of enduring toll and exposure
that would astoni>h even an American
seaman. 4 fondness for athletic sports
is common. The women are generally
handsome and weIl-forIned. They are
superior IN appearance. as they are in
manners and intelligence. to the women
of other Eastern nations. Every Japan
ese is sen, to school. 1t is asserted that
there are more schools in that empire than
IN any other country in the world, and
that the peasants can at least, read. The
mind Of the women are as ca. eiuIly cniii-
vated as those Of the men. Hence in the
long array of national authors there are
many females. The Government is care
