The case Of ketchum involves even
more complications in his e1it from prison
than in his crime and trial. He was in
dicted for one crime, viz, forgery, and
convicted Of another, viz, procuring money
on fraudulent gold checks- Upon a mo-
ton for his release on ho6eas corpus,
Judge barnard prepared an elaborate de-
c5sion dischazeing him fDm imprisou-
ment, but wns prevented from de-
live11ng it, because the application
for discharge was withdrawn at
the request Of theprisonsr. Judge Barnard
seems, therefore, to have allowed him to
remain IN prison knowing his imprisonment
to be unlawful, mud after he had prepared
himself to judicially pronounce it so. At
last. when he has served ont the full term
of his alleged illegal imprisonment, the
Governor attempts to pardon him Of the
crime for which BIZ Vas indicted, but does
not pardon him Of the crime for which he
WIS convicted. Judge barnard decides
that he has pever heen convicted Of any
crime at all. If Mr.. Ketchum should at
tempt, under these circumstances, to tell
vhethar be il legally guilty or innocent, en-
titled to the franchises Of q citizan or not,
his insanity, which VIE blended on his trial,
might soon, perhaps, be proven.

We nre disposed to doubt the truth OF the
reports from the Red River country that
Governor McDouga1l is trying to array the
Indians, including those within the bound
nzies Of the United States, in an effort to
suppress the rebellion. The mass Of the
Indiana Of the Red River country have join
ed in the protest against the ccssion Of
their country, By the Hudsonis Bay Compa-
ny, to Canada. They are essentially in
sympathy with the white settlers, and with
the rebel movement. Any attempt to arm
the savnges of tho border for any Indian
warfare, against either the British or Amer
lean white settlers, 'ls too obviously canard
to need Iefutation.

In Lancaster County, fcnns51ynnia, there
isa mine Of nickel, owned by q close corpora
ton, not exceeding -four OF five parsons.
The owners reside in Philadelphia, and have
a monopoly. Nickel is used principally in
the manufacture Of German silver, Il now
bears duty Of IL Per cent The cost of
production is comparatively t{ining. We
notice that Mr. Kelley, the Philadelphia
Congressman, In his plan for reducing taxa
ton, proposes to double the duties on
nickel! Who is to be ben1ated by such
increase except handful Of Pennsylvania
monopolists? Why does not Mr. Kelley at
once propose direct tax upon Ill the peo-
pie. to be paid to tho owners Of the mino ;?
That is the substance Of his proposition !;
and why not avow It?
