SUMMING UP THE CAsE.-A Georgia
friend, who has laughed over some
of the very extra-judicial decisions
of learned judges that have found
their way into the Drawer, sends the
following as having actually occurred
in one Of the cities of that State:
Our friend is full of the dignity of
his office, and entirely convinced that
the affairs of the country would come
70 a full stop but for his efforts. Not
long since a man was brought before
him on a warrant for vagrancy. A
palmer case could not be presented,
and as the evidence was given in, the
young lawyer who was defending him
thought it hopeless. On arising to
sum up, while badgering his head what
to say, he happened to notice that his
client was tolerably we'll dressed, and
called the attention Of the Court to
that fact, claiming that no man who
wore ''good clothes" could properly
be considered . vagrant. . vagrant
being q ragged, dirty vagabond. OBJ
serving that the Court made memo
randum Of "good Clothes" be had the
good sense to sit down. After the
prosecution had concluded, the judge
with his rich brogue, said: 1.-THE Cart
having ittintively hazard the ividence
Ellsworth American. [volume] (Ellsworth, Me.) 1855-current, 1870-09-29

The New York Post SAYS. very truly.
that the ''recent election in Maine was Il
curious instance of a conflict between
two forces which rarely meet face TO
tacc-the party organization, consist
ing of the men inside Of politics, and
the rank and file who cast the votes"
The Post then explains what 1.-THE men
inside of politics" means by party teal-
ty and disloyalty:
Most men do not see OF what value
''party" is eXceptaS means torcXpress-
ing and carrying out principles under
the popular will. But the political
mana gers attach entirely different no
ton TO this great machine they aim to
WELD. 1t is that which gives them
power and importance, and they there
fore try to surround it with reverence,
to give it sanctity and influence for its
own sake; to make it an energetic means
of profit to them and OF punishment to
their enemies.
Hence when man disobevs their
will the cry is raised that he is false
to the party" Fidelity to the party
means usually in their mouths sub
servience to the men who commonly do
the secret and often dishonest work Of
party organization; and is exacted by
them as a condition of obtaining Office
or influence, 80 far as they can control
the way to these.
Ellsworth American. [volume] (Ellsworth, Me.) 1855-current, 1870-09-29

into other countries, or even preserv-
ed where it is. 1t is a pititul thing to
have the men Of whole civilized ma
ton spending so much time out Of the
flower Of their years learning to kill
other men and the lesson to be drawn
from the recent Prussian successes is
assuredly not that every country ought
to have an army like the Prussian ar
my-though we confess that. if great
armies must be kept up, there is no
better model than the Prussian. The
lesson is that, whether you want him
for war or peace, there is no way in
which you can get so much out of a
man as by training him, and training
him not in pieces, but the whole of
him and that the trained men, other
things being equal, are pretty sure in
the long run TO be the masters of the
world. 1t is lesson which we cannot
help thinking some Of our rerormers
might take seriously to heart.

A CHANCE FOR MEDIUMs.-On the
29th Of July, early in the morning, a
wealthy citizen of New York was mur-
dered in his own house. Immense re-
wards are offered for the detection of
the murderer, rewards amounting in
all to S47 900. Now. as there are
several thousand mediums in the
United States constantly in communi-
cation with the world of spirits, why
don't some of them call up the ghost
of the murdered man and ask who kill
ed him: Fory-secen thousand dollars
to be had by asking ''the spirits don't
help people make money" replies a
spiritualist, that not their mission.
But these same mediums take mon
ey for lecturing, for telling fortu nes,
gentlemen 81, ladies half price = they
take money for public exhibitions. like
the Davenport boys; they take money
for their trance-speaking and for pic
lures painted by spiritual aid. Why
not take the magnificent sum offered
for the information they can so easily
obtain? Is the murdered mans ghost
too forgiving to tell /? But there is yet
a cnancc. The clairvoyant mediums
can see in trance things absent, past
and future, they can tell our fortunes,
what we have done. what we are go
ing to do. what our friends whom they
never saw, are doing and thinking,
though thousand miles away. Sure
ly, one with such power as this would
succeed as detective. A fortune te
be had for asking or for looking, but
they won't take it walk in, ladies
and gentlemen, and have your for
tunes told; only two dollars" Sinai
