The Broadhead Murder Trial.

A correspondent writingt from Strouds-
burg to the Scranton Republican i'll speak
ing of the Brodhead murder, and the Grim
inals, whose death penalty has been sud
denly stayed by order of Court, says
The excitement in this county in regard
to the Brodhead murder case, continues
rather to grow than to subside. Murder,
in the first degree, is new thing in the
history of Monroe county. In the past
there are two such charges but neither were
sustained by the court.
The fact too, that the convicts, Brooks
and Orme, have completely withheld every
part of their previous history, even their
true names, from the public, gives addi-
tional interest to the case and the curious
have endeavored to slake their appetite by
the invention of innumerable stories, which
whilst they have kept the people on tip-toe,
have amounted to nothing. All that Is
known of Brooks and Orme, previous to
the morning they were put off a coal train
near Stroudsburg, is blank that no one
has read but themselves. They are not
men in whom the brute nature would seem
| to hold predominance men, too, OF at
least fair education; young, and rather
| below medium in size. All these features
have attended to awaken interest, and
these, with expressions of penitence for the
| past, have brought out friends to do all
they can for them. and at least avert if pos
sible the death penalty.
The Court of Errors have granted hear
ing, on the first Monday in March, and as
that carries the case past the 26th inst, the
| dav fixed for the execution, and also past
our February term of Court, if a new trial
Is granted it cannot take place before the
| May term.
The exceptions taken by the counsel of
prisoners to the rulings of Judge Barrett,
were in relation to the right of private per-
sons making arrests of those whom they
NAV suspect of having committed larceny.
The Judge instructed the jury that private
citizens had that right equal to an officer OF
| the law who had a warrant in his hands,
It seems in the laws of Pennsylvania there
is barely precedent to this case, and a
question is to be settled which will stand
as law in all cases of this kind in future
Judge Barrett is an able jurist, and he was
very positive in his rulings on this point,
although he said if private citizen made
a false arrest he must bear the consequence.
The defence claims that is a private citizen
receives bodily harm in an arrest a plea OF
murder cannot be set up, for he had nc
right 10 attempt an arrest, and though
death follow, it cannot go beyond man.
slaughter.

HIS ExcELLENCY, THE PRESIDENT. How
few people seem to know that His Excel
lency the President is misnomer, the of
fetal designation of the Chef Magistrate OF
the the Republic, so far as he has one, be-
ing simply The President. In the conven-
ton framing the Constitution there Were
various propositions as to the title to be
given the Executive, and, among others,
one that he should be styled Excellency,
This failed, rs did all the others, the decis-
ion being that he should be styled simply
what the Constitution itself calls him 1t
will be noticed that Mr.. Seward, who is
scrupuiously exact in these matter, invaria-
bly, addresses his communications to The
President, and, perhaps, rigidly simple as
this may seem, it was meant to be as full of
meaning as the plain title with which roy
ats appears, not His Majesty, or His Chris
tian Majesty, or His Catholic Majesty, but
"The King"

An EXTRAORDINARY CASE OF TRANCE

An EXTRAORDINARY CASE OF TRANcE.-A
number of our city physicians went out to
Burlington yesterday to investigate the case
of child which for twenty days has been
| in trance. The case is pronounced one OF
the most remarkable that ever came under
the notice of the medical faculty, and there
| is little wonder that it creates something
of a sensation. A little daughter, twelve
years of age, named Nina, of Christian
Rausch, German farmer, living about one
and half miles from Burlington, Racine
county, in this State, had severe attack
| of measles and diphtheria. She had near
| lv recovered from these on the Sth of jan
uary, when she called her father to her bed
| side and told him that she was going to
sleep, and that she should sleep for long,
long time. She said she should look as
though were dead, but she should not be
dead; and she made the father promise
that he would not bury her, which promise,
it may be readily supposed, has been faith
fully kept, Soon after making the request
the child, to all appearances, sank quietly
and peacefully into her last sleep. By all
it was supposed Nina was dead, and the
body was enshrouded and placed in a coffin.
After the sleep the body showed no signs of
death, although the pulse and the heart
ceased to perform their pulsations, and no
device could show that the respiratory or
gans were in use. The eyes closed. In this
state Nina has lain now for twenty days
without a sign of life and with no sign of
death other than a sinking of cheeks and
eyes, which would be natural with one who
had tasted for so long period. Three days
ago vein was tapped and blood flowed rs
naturally as it would in a living person.
A blister raised on the flesh precisely as it
would on that of one alive. A neighbor of
Mr. Rausch told our reporter that he had
pressed finger on the hand of the girl
Her flesh was solid and upon taking away
the finger the spot was white. In few
seconds the color came again, precisely as
it would if the flesh of living persons were
pressed in the same manner. Under these
circumstances it is reasonable for parents
and friends to believe that the child lies in
a trance, and there is little wonder that the
case is attracting SO much attention among
the medical faculy. 1t will be watched
carefully to the end, and with interest. A
large number of persons have visited the
the house Of Mr.. Rausch, and all express
themselves as lost in wonder and amaze
ment at this strikingly strange affair

The Suffrage Amendment.

Senator Buckalew proposed to the Sen
ate, tho other day, an excellent amendment
to the proposed suffrage amendment to the
Constitution, viz That it shall be submit
ted for ratification TO the Legislatures of the
several States, the MOST numerous branch
"a of which shall be chosen next after the
passage Of this resolution.
This meets the objection of the extra ex-
pense Of constitutional convention III each
State, which has doubtless, had It's weight
in determining the choice, hitherto uniform
in all our adopted or proposed amendments,
between the two methods of submission to
the people authorized in the supreme law
But il also escapes the objection generally
made to that choice, and insisted upon with
SO much force by Senator Dixon last week,
that, if the Legislatures now sitting pass
upon the amendment it will be adopted or
rejected by bodies not elected by the people
to and fitted for that duty.
Another consideration in favor of Sena-
tor Buckalew's plan, is, that the term OF
adoption or rejection will thus be limited to
a reasonable and definite period, and the
anomalous condition of things avoided
which now exists with respect to the AINth
Amendment That amendment has not
been carried by the votes of three-fourths
of the State Legislatures, except the count
includes those which, having ratified, after
wards rejected the same. The opinion OF
every constitutional lawyer of any rank, lis
that no State, party to the contract, Is
concluded by its own consent TILL the requl-
site three-fourths unite in their consent
till which specific moment of time the con
sent of any State may be withdrawn. New
Jersey, Ohio, and Oregon withdrew then
consent before three-fOurths of the States
had united therein but likewise did anoth-
er State ratify after it had at first rejected
and this ratification cannot he accounted
legal upon any principal, which will not ex-
clude the notifications of Oregon, Ohio, and
New Jersey, reversed by equal authority.
Yet where does this leave us? Why, in
the condition that no amendment can be
finally be rejected. A hundred years hence,
the now rejected XIVth may become the
ratified XIVth Amendment, and the Con
stitution is thus put in state of perpetual
fux. Senator Buckalak's s amendment ought
to be accepted even by the fanatics Of ne
gro suffrage in the HOuse.-Er.

RSF~ The reticence of General Grant has
completely demoralized the army of office
seekers. No one appears to know any
thing about the Generals "little game, -
and the only consolation each one has is
that, any how, he knows as much as his
neighbor what the General intends to do.
All kinds Of efforts have been made to get
the General to open his mouth, but they
have all failed and the mum candidate is
in reality the mum President. Perhaps
the General has read the ancient rhyme -

ssA- The Hon. Geo. W. Woodward stat
ed the Georgia case in this terse and Wig
orous stvle, in the debate of Thursday Of
last week
But now, Mr. Speaker, ! beg to inquire
why the vote of Georgia should not have
been counted why it should have been
counted with Il qualification ? That quahti-
cation was admirably stated by the Presi-
dent of the Convention when he said that
the effect of the concurrent resolution was
to count the vote of Georgia if it meant
nothing, and not to count the vote if it
meant anything. When he said that, he
stated the legal effect and consequence Of
that resolution precisely. Now, ask, why
should Il sovereign State of this Union be
treated in that manner Listen to it The
nation will listen to the words of Mr.. Wade,
uttered from that seat yesterday, that the
two Houses had decided that if the vote of
Georgia would effect nothing it should be
counted, and if it would effect anything it

gia in that manner this year, what State
may you not treat in the same manner next

is that but dissolution of the Union ?
VIII you say that Georgia is not in the
Union ? Here are her members sitting on
this floor What right have they to be
here if Georgia is not in the Union ? Geor-
gia has been in the Union from the begin
ming, she has never been out of the Union,
unless you allege, what l deny, that her at
tempted secession took her out of the
Union. But You say her act Of secession
was null and void, and she herself has SO
declared and repealed the act, and you have
reconstructed her. She is not only the
original Georgia, but Georgia reconstruc-
ted by this Republican Congress. Then, 1
ask, why should not her electoral vote be
