The Detroit Post thinks that one very i'm
portant point in the case of the crippled vet
Grams of the Ohio Asylum, in Gen. Schenck's
District, should be made prominent. "The
inmates of Asylum are not soldiers; they are
not in the United States seryice-they are
simply citizens. On going to the Asylum to
reside, they did not join the army again.
They did not sign any enlistment papers, or
in any other way enter the United States SER
vice. They are free citizens, just as much as
though they were out of the Asylum. Any
man of them can leave whenever he pleases.
They are not subject to any orders by United
States officers, beyond the obligation to obey
the rules of the institution or else leave, just
as every guest at hotel or at hospital is
bound to do. Therefore the objection of the
Copperheads to their voting is all the more
ridiculous. A soldier in the United States
servic. may not be voter elsewhere than at
his former home but suppose Democratic
editor, not entering the United States SER
vice, but remaining citizen just as he now is
should rent house at Fort Wayne, or break
up housekeeping and go and board perma-
nently with one of the officers at the fort
would he lose his citizenship? Would he not
be voter in the ward where the fort is
Would he be disfranchsed because of simply
boarding on United States land? Certainly
not"

The Augusta correspondent of the Boston
journal says that sat the last session of the
Council the record and evidence in the case
of Clcayeland was laid before them. The
statute requires that the jury finding IA person
guilty of murder shall find whether he is
guilty of murder in the first or second degree.
The Council, upon their examination of the
record in Cleavelands case, found that the
verdict of the jury was that Cleaveland was
guilty of the murder whereof he stands in
dicted.' These are the words of the record
The question then arose whether that amount
ed to his being guilty of murder in the first
degree. Being unable to decide, the Council
then asked the opinion of the Supreme Court,
whether Cleaveland is guilty of murder in the
first degree by the verdict? The opinions OF
Justices Barrows, Danforth, Tapley and Wal
ton have been received, while the opinions OF
the other four justices are yet to come in.
These opinions will not be made public until
all have been received, when the Council will
take final action. 1t is highly probable that
the verdict will not amount to murder in the
first degree, but will be decided to be in the
second degree, which will save Cleavelands
neck from the gibbet, and give him imprison-
ment for life

United States Gunboat Swntara"-FIoating
Dock-.Waiting for Cable Connections with
the crest Of the World"
ST. THOMAS, July 16, 1870.
The United States steamer Swatara, from ST.
Domingo the 18th instant, leaves to-day for New
York. The object of her visit was to sell some
exchange. The floating dock sunk by the hurri-
cane that passed over this city and harbor was
raised this morning and went down again for
some reason unknown to outsiders. Mr.. Murphy,
the man in charge, is confident he can float and
repair it, an item of news not disagreeable to the
shareholders. We are having the usual quantum
of sickness this summer, though fever cases are,
perhaps, not yet so fatal as in some years past.
We are all anxiousy waiting the submerging of
the cable hence to Jamaica and the ''rest OF the
wOrld.''
