The article in another column from
Forney's Press is specimen of shame-
less peryersiOn and malicious mendacity
never yet equalled even by that master
in the art; and of all the many odious
and disgusting qualities which, by some
freak Of nature, have been blended in
him, his lying is the most marvellous and
exquisite
Upon a simple news dispatch that a
gentleman, Mr. Roswell Cary, Acting
United States District Attorney, had died
a few days ago in this city, is constructed
a story that Judge Eugene Cary, who, a
few months ago at a crowded public
meeting was engaged in an insignificant
scuffle, had fallen victim to Southern
violence and lawless ness and the i'm
preston sought to be produced that he
had been murdered for his Union (Radi.
caD principles.
The facts are that Judge Cary is now
presiding in the Circuit Court, and that
his melee was with gentleman of the
same political faith, and from which he
received no injury that detained him
from the streets an hour and further,
that Err. Roswell Cary, (his cousin we
believe) died peacefully in his bed and
received every customary mark of respect
from his professional brethren, regardless
of political differences.

sLAw-MAKNG ExrRAoRDISAKY.-The
following bill was offered in the House
of Representatives yesterday
Be il enacted by the Legislature of Ten
nessee, That section 22S8 of the Code be
and the same is SO amended that, in the
event a WidoU shall die withOut issue by her
husband, from whose estate she receives
property exempt from execution, the same
shall enure to her separate use, and she
shall not be responsible TO account to any
person other than 10 her orn children, The
issue Of The marriage"
Let us see how this would work We
suppose the bill takes it for granted the
husband is already dead Now, if the
widow die too, how can the property ex-
empt from execution be made to enure to
her separate use? But again. If she
has no children by her husband, and he
dead also, how can she be expected to
answer responsibility to children that
never existed ? Some change in the
Code is, perhaps, necessary, but this
lands the business in the middle of a
muddle that would run an average lawyer
crazy in half an hour.

MILITARY INTERFERENCE WITH
THE COURTS IN GEORGIA.


The Savannah Republican learns that
the officers Of the Superior Court of Chat
ham county, now in session in SavanS
nah, have received a special order from
Atlanta, with reference to the case of
William r Hopkins, indicted for muir
der. The order sets forth that it is al
legged that on account Of prejudice said
to exist against the accused, he could not
have fair and impartial trial; and as
the laws of Georgia do not provide for
change of locality save in cases where a
jury cannot be obtained, the General
commanding third military district orders
that the court shall not try the case, but
continue it until such time as the mill
tary commander may direct The Re-
publican, which is edited by Massa-
chusetts man, who is a Republican but
not Radical, comments on this action of
Gen. Meade as follows:
"Was there ever a more wanton and fla
grant violation Of justice for the purpose of
polluting the judicial ermine with the stain
of partisanship than this act e? 1t is moth
ing more nor less than a deepand damning
outrage, and we hope for the honor of onr
country it will not long go unrebuked. Is
this the object for which Generals of the
United States army are sent South-to
prostitute Justice and trample under foot
the last yestige of civil liberty, to Insult
the courts, impugn the honesty of its Judges,
and to screen alleged murderers while
honest men suffer To be sure it was
colored woman, whose life blood was poured
out to satiate the vengeance OF 5wardIy
Radical; but We demand Justice as pure
and impartial for her as for the fairest
person in the land. Does General Meade
dare to say that if the murderer of this
unfortunate colored woman happened to be
an ex-Confederate soldier, or person who
opposed universal suffrage, and the other
manifold evils with which Georgia is to-
day cursed, he would issue such an arbitrary
decree? He does not, and he dare not, for
his conscience would rebuke him. 1t is
simply an outrage committed in behalf of
the Thad. Stevens party, and he is too
sensible an officer to deny it,"

THE STATUS OF CITIZENS,

A Washington letter gives the following
points of decision of the Supreme Court
to which reference was made in our tele-
graphic dispatches
The Supreme Court of the United States
recently announced an opinion in will
case where the suit was originally brought
in the Cireuit Court of the United States
for the District of Maryland. The decree
of the latter court was reversed, and the
case was remanded with directions to enter
a decree Diminishing the bill of COMPLAINT
for want of jurisdiction, without prejudice
to the plaintiff TO bring any suits she may
be advised to the proper court. The main
point OF this decision is that citizen of
this District or the citizen of a territory,
does not come under that clause of the con-
stitution relative to the powers of the iu-
dietary, which includes cases between citi-
zens of different States, while several of the
defendants concerned in the will are resi-
dents of the District Of Columbia. Asso-
ciate Justices Clifford and Field and the
Chief Justice dissented from the opinion of
the majority of the court. In the paper
read by the first named, the ground was
taken that the motion made to dismiss
should be denied for the reason that accord
ing to the constitution and law of February,
1889, suit could not be brought in equity
as at common law, and that from this citi-
zens Of the United States could be debarred.

The English journals are showing that
the streets of London and other large cities
are more fatal TO human life than the rail-
way travelling of the country. This is
proved by certain statistical tables. In the
year 1867 there were sixty-four persons run
down and killed by horses or vehicles in
all parts of the country la seven years.
ending in 1866, the deaths by railway in
England were 297, of which I2S were
pslpably caused by the neglect of the suf-
ferers themselges-the ratio being one
person in nine millions of those transported
by train, far less amount of homicide
than that produced by the apparently less
dangerous mode of street travel.
