Acquittal of General Cole.

ALBANY, N. Y, December 7.-General
Cole has been acquitted. The jury came.
into court about eleven o'clock this
morning, and stated that they. found the
prisoner to be sane at the moment be-
fore and the moment after the killing,
but were in doubt as to sanity on the
instant of the homicide. The Judge
said they must give the prisoner the
benefit of the doubt; and thus instructed. ].
they acquitted him.
Such is the influence of wealth and.
position. The distinction is q nice one,
in fact the closest ON record. Sane, in
sane and sane, all in three minutes. II
is about time such farces to shield
wealthy murderers were stopped. The
above verdict is equally as silly as the
finding of the Coroners inquest in sths
case of II. RIvEs POLLARD, at Richmond
short. time since. And we presume
GRANT, the assassin of POLAND, will
fare no worse than did Cole. His father
is very wealthy.

senator Linn.

Senator Linn, whose conscience was
SO troubled With the Boys in Blues yo-
ting tickets with flags on them, that he
got up the law of last winter which has
placed Monroe County with its 1900
Democratic majority in the hands of
Union county officers, will at once tako
this matter in charge and have law on
acted that will punish such attempts to-
deceive evoters.-Daily Courier, Nor. 23.
Now in answer to the above, we have
to say
l. 'sSenator Linn's conscience" was
not troubled in the manner stated, but
his sense of right and justice to those
poor working men whose employers
have attempted to control their votes
against their convictions, by furnishing
distinctive tickets for them to vote, by
the outside appearance of which tickets
said employers could recognize them in
the hands of their employees as they
voted, led Mr. Linn to propose the law
for the protection of such voters law
that is very obnoxioustto the. Courier
and many oligarchs.

Democratic majority" is NOT ...in the
hands of Union county officers il BY
"Union" is here meant "Republican" or
''Grant and Colfax' officials. The Dem
ocratic tickets for county officers voted
in Monroe county, at the late State elec-
ton, were not illegal ]; the Democratic

offices. "a "a .,....s.ia ~ =

The Indian Slaughter on the
Plains.

The following from Superintendent
of Indian affairs, stamps CusTER's late
victory as no better than wholesale mur-
der:
superintendent Wynkoop has sent
to the Commissioner his resignation,
and gives the following reasons for SO,
doing: He had ordered the Indians to
rendezvous at certain point to receive
their annuity goods, when they were
suddenly attacked by Colonel Cbiving-
ton, at. Sand Creek, and mercilessly
slaughtered. After that the Indians lost
all confidence in him, but he succeeded
in finding his way back to their favor
Then, while passing from the northern
hunting grounds to their reservation,
they were attacked by the troops under
General Hancock and again outraged - =
Again they suspected Colonel Wynkoop
and refused to have any dealings With
him, but once more he contrived to re.
gain their confidence. Since the attack
made by General Custer the Indians have
became bitterly incensed against the SUI
perintendent, and, as he dares not ven
ture among them any more, he feels 10
to be his duty to resign. .sfdss.s .,l. sofs
