CIRCUIT CoURT-JttCige CGLCitgcH pre-
sidimg.-Cirruit Court met at o O'Clock
on Saturday morning and held but n
half days session, when the case OF
John Schmidt, charged with the murder
OF Elizabeth Schmidt, on tho I'd of May
last, was concluded. After the case
was finally given to the jury they re-
tired to their room, and in about twenty
minutes brought in a verdict OF "guilty
OF murder in the second degree" and
sentenced the accused to fifteen years
in the penitentiary. This
wns considered by many MS n light pun
ishment for the offence charged, as most
OF those among the spectators whom
we heard express nm opinion Thought
Schmidt would receive tho death pen
atty. The prisoner received his SEN
tonce with evident indifference, pre-
serving that stOlid compOsure which he
exhibited throughout the trial.
The following business was also dis
posed of during the day:
Robert Burkitt WINS appointed guar
dian of the children OF James Burkitt.
He gave n bond of $500, with James
Brown us his security.

ton papers.

Coon ENoUGH TO re TOLD.-we have
heard of a Joke which happened at one
of our express Offices recently, and we
consider it good enough for our readers.
A son of the Emerald Isle, it appears,
enquired OF the agent what it would
cost TO express corpse to certain
point. He was told the price and asked
where the body was. Tho Celt replied:
''the man isn't dead yet, but he wantOi
TO know incnse he would need the trans
portation." This rather sold tho OK
press agent for the time being. Next
day who should appear but tho interlo-
cutter OF the day before, accompanied
by four brawny comrades carrying 4
corpse. The son of Erin remarked that
there now was the corpse, and he want
ed it sent to ASSASSINATION. When ask
ed why he hadn't brought 1t the day be-
fore he replied, "Arrah, BIO aisy, now.
He was an honist man, an nIver de-
caived any one in his life, an It toas1Et

in beautiful contrast with the few pre-

and the air was bracing. All day yes
teriay the streets were alive with per-
sons who seemed disposed to take adj

The churches were largely attended,
one characteristic of the lady church

popular just now, and frequently TO be

Mexico.

The Imperialists in Mexico call the
Republican troops OUTLAWS" "enemieS
of mankind" foes to government"
"miscreants," and robbers They do
not recognize them as belligerents, enti-
tied to the protection of the laws of war,
and they execute as outlaws whatever
prisoners of rank may fall into their
hands Under these circumstances, we
can understand how direct an insult it is
for the government Of the United States
to accredit q Minister to the Republic
of Mexico" It's very much as ifFrance
had appointed a Minister to represent
that nation at the capital Of tho Con
federate States Of America We would
undoubtedly have fretted and fumed and
hurled great many hard words ut the
French Emperor and possibly might have
carried our resentment far enough to
commit some overt act Of war and get
ourselves into deeper trouble. What ere
would have done had France recognized
the independence of the Confederacy, we
may expect France to do, now that we
have declared the continued and rightfu,
existence of the Republic ofMcXico. If
the French Emperor had declared that
all claims on the part Ofthe Federal gov
ernment to exercise authority over the
Southern States we're founded in usurpa-
ton and wrong, he would have done no
more than we have done in declaring
MAXIMrLIAN's government an usurpa-
tion and recognizing the Republic as the
only legal authority in Mexico.
But We don't think there Nill be any
war. We hay had quite enough of that
sort Of thing during the past fo0r years
to satisfy thomost belligercnt, and We are
by no means spilin' fora light not at

Taxing Goycrament Bonds.

In the Indiana House of Representa-
tives last Monday resolution was adopt
ed directing the Judiciary Committee to
inquire whether the Legislature OF Iudi-
ana has constitutional right to taT'for
state purposes the bonds of tho United
States held by citizens of that State anu
if they find it can be done in aecor"aHo1
with the Constitution, to report . p'i'
placing said bonds on an eql'al loo''''s
with other property as regards taxation
In the Senate a similar resolution was
lost nv q negative majority Of one vote
Roth branches of tie Indiana Leglsla
ture are largely Republican. In view OF
the fact that the Legislatures which are
agitatirg this subject are controlled by
the Republican party, as in ermont'
New Hampshire, Connecticut ana lndi-
ana, it is limo to stop the cry OF cop
perhead" heretofore uttered against eY-
cry person who denounced the injustice
of exemptiug United States bonds from
taxation. The moro enlightened and
prudent of the bond-holdcrs themselves
are in favor of Taxation, because they
know mat if the bonds are not taxed
there is less probability of their final
payment. fever the people ofth's coun-
try are driven.to demand the reputation
ofthese bonds that result will he brought
about mainly by the injustice of their
exemption from taxation. Notwlth-
standing Mr.. JAY COOKIES sOphistries,
the national debt is not generally regard
ed as "a blessing for which we ought to
be especially thankful. 1t isnot very
popular institution at best, and if those
to whom it is due have a wise regard for
their own interest they will, at their ear
lest opportunity, diyest their bonds of
that feature which is deemed particu-
larly odious and unjust.
