JCsT SENTENCE. The Washington Re
publican says that VIM Baldwin. tried by
Court Martial for stealing Government
horses, has been sentenced to the N. H
State Prison. He is to pay to the United
States tine Of $1,000, and to be confined
at hard labor for the period Of seven
years, wearing a ball and chain, and in
case the fine is not paid At the expiration
of seven years, that he be confined for
the additional period of three years.
This should be warning to "Govern-
ment thieves" If all of them were con-
vietSd there would not be sufficient Pris-
on room in the country to hold them
While the Government has its hand in, it
is to be hoped it will punish the money,
furniture, picture, jewelry, carriage and
cotton thieves IS we'll as horse thieVes.--
If reports be true, the two Massachusetts,
Major Generals, Banks and Butler, ought
!, to share Baldwin's punishment. tits not
fair to punish the petty thieves and load
with favors the monsters Of villainy.
