The next day (Monday) the attending physicians
caused him to be arrested on suspicion; but there
was go little on which to ground the charge
his person and residence being searched and no
poison discovered-that he was discharged on
his own recognizance. But, Immediately after
the death Of his victim, he was again arrested
and committed for trial, and, as we see, has
been tried and found guilty.
In all its aspects this was most remarkable
case. The prisoner was convicted altogether on
circumstantial evidence. No traces of poison
were found in the Liver or body, or at least the
trace was 80 faint as to warrant the counsel for
defence in trying to have it ascribed to the ordi
nary medicines prescribed by the attending ply
siciana But, as in the celebrated case Of Palmer,
and as in the case Of Stephens, convicted re-
Gently in this city, the symptoms exhibited
before death were regarded as more conclusive
than the tests for poison that were afterwards
applied. AL these cases show conclusively that
it is no less dangerous for the murderer to resort
to slow than it is to resort to rapid poisoning.
We refrain now from instituting comparison
between the English system Of criminal jurispru-
dence, where the sword Of justice falls surely,
inevitably and without undue delay, and our
own system, where the criminal Is enabled, by
applications for new trials, to cheat the gallows
for years, il not ultimately to escape the doom
he merits.

If man faints away. instead of yelling out

so as to allow the air to reach him, and let
him alone. Dashing water over person in
a simple iainting-ft is barbarity, and soils
the clothing unnecessarily. The philosophy
of fainting-ft is. the heart fails to send the
proper supply of blood to the brain; if the

A BuRLEsouE ON MoNEYEp MEN.


One of the amusing letters purporting to
come from Mohamed Pasha published in the
Evening Post, has the following hit at the
Merchant Princes" of New York:
ale was born in Hudde,own, Connecti-
cut, in the year 1902. BY the time he was
ten years old, land very old, indeed. he was
at that time of life,) be had made one hun
dred and sixty-fve bargains, barters and dick
ers in shoe-strings, peg-tops and jack-knives,
and had amassed the sum of five dollars and
fifty-three cents. At the age of eleven he en-
tered the store of Grab e. Ketchum, in his
native town, and continued therein as a clerk
until he had reached the age of fifteen years,
and had accumulated the sum of two hundred
and five dollars and thirty-two cents. In
vesting this amount in potatoes and dried
pumpkins, he set sail in a Stonington sloop
for New York, and with his entire possessions,
landed at Fulton Market in the year 1877.
Since that time he has passed through the
several professions of vegetable purveyor, fish
vender, general merchant, bank president, and
solid man, and is now considered a mag
nate and millionaire. He was never indct-
ed for stealing, or accused of infdelity. He
was never troubled with an ultra idea, never
had an unselfsh aspiration, never went out of
his way to do charitable act, never bother
ed himself with romance, sentiment, or art,
never spoke two consecutive sentences in
grammatical manner, never looked at the stars
over his head nor the flowers under his feet.
He is some fifty-six years of age, bald, bill
lious. and not especially amiable. He had

ton, and is now considered most desirable
