The Case Of Thomas w. smith.

Public applause AMI sympathy are not
always infalliblc induces by which we may
Judge of the rightfulness of the acts upon
which they are bestowed; but sometimes
they are valuable as evidence of the moral
status of the people who indulge therein.
In the ease of Thomas Washington Smith,
Of Philadel phia, who has just been tried
for the murder of Richard Carter, the us
tifcatidn of his act by the public, was. we
take 1t, too apparent to be misunderstood.
Smith, as our readers will rcco le:t, was
married to a young lady. the ward of Car
ter, and four months after that event his
wife was brought to bed Of full grown
female chlld, the paternity Of which she
fastened upon Garter, who did not deny
the imputation. Carter had been anxious
to bring about the match between his ward
and Smith, though for what purpose it is
not easy to see; and as soon as the duped
and ruined man found that he had been
Transformed into convenient beast to
carry off Cartcr's sins, he confronted the
more than scducer and shot him through
the heart. On the trial, a plea of insanity
was put in by defence, and tolcrable case
was made ont. The quick sympathlcs OF
the crowds who thronged the court room
from morning till night-sympathics in
favor OF the wronged, unhappy but erring
manifold with greater effect than the
witnesses and their testimony upon the
jury. The prisoner was promptly acquit-
ted Tn his way from the court to the
prison, where he is to be restrained for the
present. he was greeted with long and re-
peated bursts of popular applause. We
do not assume that the plaudits which were
SO freely bestowed will wipe away the stain
that is upon Smiths hands; but they
show ut least that there are some cases 9TH
err than those Of self-defencc. in which the
judgement of the public will acquit him
who sheds blood, and that there are often
eos for which, before the same tribunal
nothing but blood is a recompense.-Chi.

MIR. Crows Land Bill.

Mr.. Grow, of Pennsylvania. Jealous
and reliable Republican member of the
House of Representatives, has the honor OF
bringing forward a measure for which he
deserves the thanks of every Western man
He proposes that hereafter all the public
lands of the United States shall remain as
government property fifteen years after
they are surveyed, when the President may
issue his proclamation and order sale.
The object to be accomplished by this
measure is the occupation of the public DO
main by actual settlers, who under the ar
rangement proposed would virtually enjoy
prcemption right of fifteen years duration,
during which their own labor woul enable
them to become the owners, in fee simple,
Of the soil 1t is designed as substitute
for the homestead bill, which the South,
fearing white, particularly German Gnu
igrants, will not permit to become law.
1t is supposed that MIR. Grows bill, so
inst in its provisions and SO effcctual in
guarding the public lands from the rapaci-
ty of spectators, may be pushed through.
We are sure that it will command IN, un-
divided support of the Republicans in both
the Senate and House.
