received a manuscript warning against using
his "loaded whip-stock" upon boyish brains
must be rather slight Moreover, the
presence of that "stock" in the testi-
mony cannot be sworn out of sight by
thousand Superintendent, swear they never
so impressiyely. Berton may have carried it
merely az n harmless wand of office, and have
swung it about with no intention of knocking
boys on the head. waving it, as 1t were, IN
terrorem; and for all the Superintendent seems
to have known of the matter, Berton, the
irascible night-watchman, might have carried
a revolver as q personal ornament in the same
pleasant way. And then he might have put
ball into Miller's head and the superintendent
might have testified that Berton had orders
Gin writing not to shoot the boys, ana all
would have been officially serene.
There is q lesson in this melancholy incident.
Any man who has authority, either temporary
or permanent, over q hundred or more than
hundred boys, will bear watching, for many
are the infrmities of human nature. The
Superintendent should have watched Berton.
Then, somebody should have watched the
Superintendent. Now. perhaps, the people OF
Chicago will watch the men who appointed the
Superintendent. There should be watch gen.
orally of that same Reform School," and
especially of the night watchmen.

Victor Hugo's apparition at this hour in
Paris through the columns of the Rdppel, has
in it something which reminds us of the I'M
pleasant ghost of BanquO. In recounting once
again into the ears of Napoleon the perjury,
fraud, and massacre, by which Citizen Louis
managed to dye his purple and be-
come Emperor, the author of Les MiSerdbleS
not unity represents the unappeased, I'M
placable spirit of the French Republic. M.
Hugo's enthusiasm does not belittle his cause,
or make it one whit less certain that French
men will not be always king-ridden. On the
contrary, he has strong reason to keep it al
ways in memory of FrenChmen that Napoleon
stole his crown and broke his oath, and hence
has forfeited any right to trust or be
trusted.

We have always believed that Polygamy
must eventually disappear even among the
Mormons themselves because while almost any
purely religious sect is consistent with GER
tain degree of civilization, this Polygamy is
essentially barbarous and utterly opposed to
the Saxon idea of home. If allowed by law
among ourselves, it would speedily be over
thrown 10y the popular good sense and by our
best domestic instincts. We are not surprised,
therefore, to learn from The Kansas City Jour
nal that number of Mormons from Salt Lake
have come to Jackson County and settled near
Independence. This sect repudiates Polygamy,
and as it does this there is reason to hope that
il may in time repudiate the Mormon "reve-

1t is aggravating to have an officer of the
Internal Revenue Service shot while in the
performance of his duty; it is exasperating to
have him shot by a whisky -distiller, who Is
not the most valuable member of society con-
ceiyable. Lieut.. Moses, a Deputy Marshal, going
on the 4th inst. to Linn Creek, Mo-, to seize
certain whisky works, and to arrest the whisky
workers, was shot. in his room, in the tavern,
by some riheman, supposed to be dishonest
extorter of rifle whisky from honest grain or
potatoes In the evil, old times, they used to
call those who helped runaway negroes LEVERS
of war upon the United States. The hostilities
were short. If sharp; but some of these
whisky-men seem to have organized for a
regular campaign.

We record elsewhere the arrest of Mr..
George f. Dunning, late Superintendent of
the Assay Office, for embezzlement. There are
some features of the case, as related to us on
respectable authority which are very remark
able. 1t is alleged by those who know Mr..
Dunning intimately, that his character for in
tegrity has been heretofore above suspicion,
and that he has been in the habit of returning
to the Treasury several thousand dollars per
annum which he might legally have retained
being the excess of wastage allowed by law
over the actual loss in the process of aSsaylng'
This, if true, is strangely at variance with his
alleged acts in defrauding the Government In
another direction, and that after so bungling

Daniel Walsh, who is to be hung at Chicago
early next month, is besieged by clergymen
who offer their services to him in great num-
bers and as The Chicago Tribune hints, rather
from curious than religious motives. Six
reverend gentlemen applied in one day to the
Sheriff for admission to the condemned cell
all of different denominations, and each anxious
to succor the wretch after particular "doxy."
Even a Wisconsin clergyman who happened to
be passing through the city felt (as he wrote
to the Sheriff. "a great desire to visit the I'M
fortunate Walsh" We are not surprised to
learn, after all this, that the prisoner is in a
Every detected frame of mind :" that he was
not particularly grateful for a reprieve allowed
him by Gov. Palmer and that he is anxious
to be hung as soon as possible.

In The New- Orleans Bulletin we find rather
q lugubrious report of the state of the labor
market in that city. Assuming an adult male
population of 10000, it is stated that there are
$1,000 entirely idle; the same number only
nominally employed. Only 5000 are employed
the year through, and the remaining
$4,000 do. on an average, only about half the
labor and business of which they are capable
if they could but find daily employment"
We publish this statement, to which we sup
pose full credit may be given, for the benefit
of those who think it would be better to try
for "a situation" in NewOrleans than
to 20 to work retaining and tilling their own
acres in the West. There is strange
fascination about cities. They always harbor
about double the number of those who can
live in them comfortably, or even live" in
them at ALL

The maxim that children and fools tell the
truth came very near having an illustration in
the House yesterday. Mr.. Mungen of Ohio is
certainly not a child. 1t would, we fear, be a
breach of Congressional privilege to state our
precise opinion as to the possibility Of his
coming under the other category. Fortunately,
at is not breach of Congressional privilege to
say that anything Mr. Mungen utters is in
itself of no sort of consequence; but it happens
that on this occasion he knew no more than to
blurt out precisely what great many Democrats,
especially at the West, have been saying, but
nobody of sense or sensibility dares to say
at Washington. Beyond this the cOmmotion
raised among Eastern Democrats by his re-
marks was entirely without adequate cause.
Yet, after all, Mr.. Munger did good thing.
He secured an exhibition of the fact that no
Congressman with a mOrsel of regard for
public opinion can stand before the country
a. an advocate Of reputation. We little
