LAwLEss LASvMAKING.

Our Radical Legislature. at its late ses-
sion, undertook to treat Schuylkill county.
As the Rump Congress has been treating the
Southern States. It passed an act we shall
not call It law ousting the Courts of that
county, regularly chosen by the people. of
all criminal jurisdiction. and iustituting a
new Criminal Court. the Judge to be ap-
pointed FIRST by the Governor, and after
wards elected by the radicals Of the adjoin-
ing counties.
Governor Geary was either knaye or ass
enough to sign this bill, and compel the
people Of Schuylkill. at much expense. to
appeal to the Supreme Court for protection.
That Court, majority of which is radical.
nnaninsously declared the act unconstitu-
tional.
The Democrats in the Legislature earnest
ly opposed this act when before that body,
but the radicals forced it through It is
fortunate that there are even radical Judges
willing to arrest these revolutionary pro-
ceediugs. But we appeal to the sovereign
people how long our institutions will bear
up under radical legislation. unless their
-sober. second thought" hurl them from
positions in which mischief may be done.

THERE is scarcely city in the Union that within
the last six months has not had at least icndish
outrage committed upon some of its female residents
The punishment for this crime is terribly insufficient
and has proved to be totally inadequate, The
crime Is the worst the calendar, and entails more
mental agony and more lasting stigma than any
other. Murder is mercy compared to it, and hang
ing is too good for the criminals Every day the
number of instances increases, and the punishment
for it should at once be made severe enough to
check asnurh as possible the horrible onward tide.
