The Corien Murder.


WE have from time to time published the pro-
oeedings of the trial Of Bridget Dergan for the
murder of Mrs. Coriell. The circumstances
Of the case are still too fresh in the public
mind to need repetition. Mrs. Coriell was
murdered one night when her servant was in
the house. The servant confesses to being
present at the murder, but denies having
aided it, and was prevented from raising the
alarm by fear of personal danger. That is
her story but as she contradicts herself on a
dozen minor points, its truth is doubtful
The jury, after twenty minutes deliberation
brought in verdict of guilty of murder in
the first degree. If it were in Pennsylvania
we should fear pardon, as the sentimental
humanity of many of our citizens would favor
her escape because she is a woman. The
security of families from the brutal crimes of
domestics demands that special example be
made of this woman tigress, and we have no
doubt that the stern sentence of the Court
will be fully carried cut in New Jersey. Our
sister State is not noted for erring on the side
of lenity.

Death of MIR. Ernest c. Wallace.

IT is with extreme sorrow that we are called
upon to announce tho death of Mr.. Ernest U.
Wallace. for maay years past an associate
eCitor on the EUeni,lg Bulletin Mr.. Wallace
died last night at Yonkers, New York, where
lie had been for several months past &c use
of his delicate health. He was the son Ct Rey.
Bergin Wallace, and was born in York c. unity,
Pennsylvania When young man he ca ne
to this city, and became connected with tIe
Bulletin in the capacity of reporter.
He shortly afterwards assumed an editC rla
position, which he held 10 the time of his de, th
For thirteen years he has assisted in the editing
of our contemporary. He was In his thirty fifth
year when he fell victim to that most insidious
of dseases-consumption.
Mr.. Wallace was man of great ability Pre-
vented by the gradual progress of disease from
exerting that energy which is necessary to a
permanent reputation as a genius, he pos
sessed a talent which, had his physical equalled
his mental powers, would have placed him In
the foremost rank of writers. He possessed
great versatility, being able to write anything
from a report to an editorial.
Lacking that assumption which secures un-
deserved credit, Mr.. Wallace never received the
great appreciation of his talents. Yet sickness
and modesty could not hide from those with
whom he came in contact his more than ordl.
nary talents as a journalist. In manner he was
genial, and eminently sociarin his qualities. He
leaves host of friends
Ofa kind, large heart, with clear head, and
mower of conversation which made his pre-
sence ever welcome, his death leaves vacancy
in the ranks of the editorial fraternity which
will long be felt. Since the organization of the
Press Club he has been one of its directors. a
special meeting of the Club will be held to take
action on his decease,

at once became visible For while the
country was able to stand it, but now, like
patient that has been bled nearly to death, it
gives signs of fatal exhaustion.
The true remedy for our difficulties is to
discard the fauciful theories of Secretary
McCullooh, to abandon the absurd idea of
paying off the national debt at the rate of fifty
millions per year, and to reduce taxation to
the lowest possible limit. The currency needs
no tinkering. Every step towards reducing
it has been attended by disaster. The constant
iteration of the doctrine of reduction by the
Secretary has been perpetual panic-breeder,
and has already entailed great loss upon our
people. The currency is sound, and even if
in temporary excess, will soon be reduced to
its normal proportions by the natural growth
of the country. What we want is a reduction
of taxes, and a more faithful administration of
the revenue service. Taxation is excessive,
and the revenue service is terribly demoral-
lied; and for both of these facts Secretary
McCulloch is in good part responsible. He
has prostituted the revenue service to parti-
san ends, and the people have paid the penalty
in being feeced by dishonest officials in league
with those who have reduced frauds upon the
revenue to a perfect system.

Progress of France Under the Empire.
The ConStitUtionnel shows how wonder
fully France has advanced in material pros
periiy since 1851 The review comes down only
to 1865 and 1866, but we are warranted to infer
that progress is still the order Of the day.
ONE Of these figures are so important as to
justify reproduction. In 1851, imports,
lOC4,OOO,OO0 francs; in 1865, imports, $685.
900 600 francs-showing an increase of 2, i34,-
100000 francs In 1851, exports, l,52OOOO,OOO
francs; in 1865, ports, 46S7, 100000 francs
showing an increase OF 1867 100000 francs
In 1851 the total of imports and exports was
2,6l4, 900 900 francs in 1865 the total of imports
and exports was 1915, 900 francs-showing an
increase of 5,OOl, 100000 francs. Comparing the
same years, maritime commerce alone increased
fifty per cent. In 1851 the amount Of discounts
at the Bank of France was l,24l 100000
francs; in 1866 it was 57I 900 coo francs, show
ing an increase of 5,33}, 100000 francs. The
produce of coal has been doubled, aud the
manufacture of cast and wrought iron
tripled during the period. Railways and
telegranhs have proportionately increased
increased to the positive convenience and
pecuniary advantage OF the people.
Since 1851, when telegraphic messages num-
bered ony 10000, they had increased in 1866 to
25OOCOl and the charge, had been reduced
seventy per cent. In 1851 the number of let
tiers transmitted through the post Office was
b5 600 900 In 1865 the number had increased to
329 600 O00 In 1851 the indirect taxes, and those
on consumption, yielded 75S,442.00O francs. In
1866 revenue from the same sources had swelled
to ,2S2, ,26S 900 francs Certainly, whatever may
be said of France under the second empire, 1T
cannot, if these figures are correct be said that
she has declined in material prosperity.

No ARBTRAToN.-The South American Re-
publics have rejected the offer of the United
States to act as a mediator, and have declined
to submit the question at issue to a congress,
to meet at Washington. The plan proposed by
the United States was that a convention be
held, over which an officer named by the
President of the United States should preside.
Should no decision be arrived at by the con-
tending forces, then the President was to name
an arbitrator, whose decision should be final.
The Republics preferred to continue the war,
until, like the celebrated cats found in Kill
kenny, they have eaten each other up. De
gustibus non dispuandum.

The Davis Trial and Tribulation.

Mutterinos of dissatisfaction are
still heard because Of the continual
| failure to try Davis for.the crime Of
, treason. Whether his arraignment
and trial by the jury, do or do not
take place, is of the smallest conse-
quence. What is of consequence is
already settled-that his conviction
can never be brought about. Con
| vict resident of Richmond with q
Jury Of Virginians, Of treason, be-
cause he claimed to owe higher al
legiance to Virginia than to the Z.
States ?. Convict a conspira-
tor; at the head quarters OF q con-
spiracy, with jury of fellow con
spirators /? Find guilty of a crime
at treason's Capital, the rebels cho-
sen chief, with twelve men them
selves guilty Of the crime of treason
No, never! To believe this, or
even to discuss the possibility of
this, indicates degree of vcrdancy
almost incredible. Eleven tweliths'
Of the inhabitants of Richmond
county were in the rebellion against
the United States. A jury selected
in the usual way, on the question of
acquittal or conviction, would bear
this proportion. AS well might you
attempt to convict an italian bri-
gand of the murder Of an American
traveller before jury of brigands,
or the Sepoy murders of the English
families at Delhi, before twelve men
who have themselves been trai-
tors.
Two blunders have placed the
Government in its present ridiculous
position. When Davis was first
captured he should have been prompt
| ly tried by court martial and as
promptly shot. At that time there
would not have been word raised
against this disposition Of him, il
this or foreign countries.
The next blunder was in not try
ing him for treason in tie State OF
Pennsylvania, where he had levied
war against the United States. with
the army of which he was comman-
der-in- chief When Attorney Gen
eral Speed, who was no lawyer, sign
cd the extraordinary opinion that
Davis could only be tried within his
own realms and by the partakers in
his crime, he signed the docunent
which exempted Davis from al
pains. - Colunabus Journal.
