The Skckles' Trial.

This case which has for a long time oc
copied the public attention and excited
such an extraordinary degree Of public in
terest may be considered as settling fac,
in American Jurisprudence. The acqut-
tai Of Sickles proclaims to the adulterer,
tia. our laws will afford him no protection
against the violence of man whose do
nestle peace he has murderel-whosc
dearest possessions he has spoiled. The
case involved every circumstance caleula,
ted to render the result decisve-to estab.
fish it as precedent. The social posi-
ton of the parties-the deep guilt Of the
slain-the murderous intent and determ,
nation ofthe accused-the impartialty OF
the judge-the protection of the jury
against every blast Of public sentiment,
and the zeal and ability Of counsel, all com.
bined to make the investigation thorough
and the verdict conclusive of the law.
Under it the punishment of the guilty
becomes speedy-severe-unmerciful.-
The passions Of the injured, Infatuated by
a sense of the greatest of wrongs can pass
sentence upon their guilty object. AL
though such course cannot be defended
on the grounds of moral right and public
good, yet the present state of society, and
public sentiment seems to render it nee
essary. If the law will not sanction the
sacred precincts Of mans home then
will he execute speedy vengeance 1t is
protection that he wants, not law, punish
ment, not vain recognition of his rights
to protection. The Developments of this
investigation indicate the existence to an
alarming extent Of guilt and depravity in
high places. They argue radical defects
"a deplorable weakness in our social
character and constitution. Until society
elevates its basis and reforms itself--cul.
tivates and ckershes and rewards it's viz.
