Prince PIERRE NAPOLEON has been pro.
nounced innocent Of the murder Of NIctoR NuiR.
This was a foregone conclusion. Every one
understands that the Court was organized to ac-
quit and not convict him, and that the influences
which bore upon it from the beginning 10 the
end Of the trial were such as TO render justice
impossible. But this conclusion cannot tend to
confirm the BoN,rAGrE system in the respect Of
the FrcLch people The assassin Of NIcron

fruit Of punishment for the imperial dynasty.

tn Slaughter of the Donuelly Family
Who is to blame

In former article on the Department for
the Survey and Inspection of Buildings, we
stated that for the last live years not one five.
story tenement house has been built in con-
formity with the law and that for permitting
this the Department receives from the builders
sums VA wing from two hundred and fifty 10
two thousand dollars each. We gave ns an
example the case OF ANDREW J, KERwIN,
who paid fourteen hundred dollars to the
Department. We also stated that, figuring
up the number OF fve-story tenement houses
which have been built within the last three
years, the Department must have received one
million two hundred and fifty thousand dol
lars in the shape of blackmail
We charge now that tho Dcpar mcnt for
the Survey and Inspection Of Buildings is
responsible for the death Of the hve persons
who were crushed TO death on Sunday
in Fortysixth street that its officers were
rcmss in their duty in permitting the wall
which crushed these people to 20 UP, or else
they received the customary brbe, and
therefore shut tn ir eyes TO all ovasiops Of
the law
If Taxpayer TWEED is sincere in his de-
sire TO procure o decent charter for the bcnc.
fit Of his fellow citizens, we hoTe be Will
insert therein a clause alClslng this Do
rnrlment, notwithstanding it gave fifty
thousand dollars to secure his triumph over
the Young Democracy on last Tuesday, and
notwithstanding lis receiving large
amount Of the spells.
The Superintendent of the Department
Mr., MoGnEGOR, while protesting TO be a
Republican, is member OF the TammNny
Society just as Taxpayer TWEED while
protesting 10 lie a Democrat supports and

An incident which goes far 10 show he
different degrees Of respect accorded by the

the murderer Ut GREgNwALp.
Mrs. DuSLor who happened to be m cye-wit-

in court, was Grraycd in q dress profu'cy adorn-
ed with that very color-sky .blue-which was so
obnoxious TO the volunteers IA 20 lead TO GRgHN-
wALDs assassination After She had testified that
the persons she saw committing the outrage on the
unfortunate and defcucelcss nan wore the uni
forms and cockades Of the volunteers. the Judge,
who it seems was alarmed Tor the personal safety
Of Mrs, DuSLor, offered her q guard OF regulars,
by whom he might be escorted hom the court
TO the consulate.
Mrs DrSLoP's reply was significant "Thank
you, sir" she said "you surely forget that am
