the sentence of the law and to execute it.
High crimes and misdemeanors can no
more be committed with impunity by the
chief officers of the land. No longer will
our statute books be the repository of laws
enacted to plumber and outrage the peo-
pie. No longer will our Constitution be a
monument of fraud and oppression.
That these things will happen snd hap

lief, yet it is none the less true. Had We
ever doubted the excellence of our form OF
government, We could do so no longer.
Had We ever failed to appreciate the great
blessing we enjoy in being able to change
in peaceful manner both our government
and our rulers, in being able to shape its
policy and practically to decide for our
selves upon the great question of peace
and war, we could not fail to do SO now,
for to this power, to this feature of our
government under Providence, We owe al

cattle were slaughtered at the Cavaroc
place last evening. The Slaughterhouse
company has authorized party on the
right bank, not far from Gretna, to kill, but
that meat mostly goes to the private
markets.
Early yesterday morning Captain Mccain
had little trouble with some butchers in
the French Market, they acting somewhat
defiant. Three of them were arrested for
disturbing the peace, taken before Record
er Staes and fined for their fun. They
had several loads of meat, a portion OF
which was struggled into the market, but
finally sent to an ice house, from whence 1t
was taken by the owners and given away.

trict (Algiers). William Isaac Charming,
late Fifth Justice of the Peace, was charged
on affidavit with abstracting certain law
books which had been supplied by the State
for the use of the court over which he lately
presided.
Channing's receipt for these books is re-
corded at the Office of the Secretary OF
State, and as they were not to be found,
and as Charming refused to account for
them, the charge was made against him.
He was arrested last evening, and after re-
naming some two hours in quod, succeeded
in giving bail for appearance to answer the
charge.

THE WoRKHoUsE CoNFLAGRATIoN.-We re-
trous confagration at the City Workhouse;
and as the fire originated in departmentnot
occupied by the inmates and at time too
when the prisoners should have been placed
in their respective cells, we were at loss to
account for its origin, the more especially
that MIR. Noble and his corps of assistants
denied their knowledge of the probable
cause of the burning. Indeed, so deeply
impressed was Mr.. Noble, the Superin
tendent, with the idea that the fire did not
originate either by accident or design on the
part of the officials or the other inmates Of
the Workhouse, that he was led to surmise
ball of fire had been projected from out
side the walls, thereby igniting the rotten
roof of the wooden building, which was
eventually destroyed. His assertion at the
time was looked upon as highly improbable;
but since the occurrence he has gathered
evidence sufficient to justify him in main
tanning his opinion. An inmate of an ad-
joining benevolent institution overheard q
colloQuay between two individuals the
night previous to the fire, having for its
object the destruction of the institution by
fire and the liberation Of those confined
therein. A policeman observed an lgnited
mass of matter, resembling rocket, passing
over the Workhouse wall on the night of
the catsstrophy. He gave no information
at the time, deeming as he then did that
the object was falling star. These facts,
together with several minor incidents,
point to the confagration being the work of
$n outside incendiary; and on an early day,
Mr.. Noble states, he will conclusively prove
this to be the case.

An ILL WIND THAT Blows NO GOOD
The different turns and twists made by the
love of litigation will, of course, interfere
with certain persons, to their serious detrl-
ment. When the urban and suburban
butchers we're epjoined from slaughter IN
promiscuous places. our markets were bare
of fresh meat. Citizens, necessarily, sought
food in new directions, visiting groceries for
shelf goods and preserved provisions, Great
ing demand quite pleasant to the retailer,
for it is on these articles he makes his greatest
rrofits. For three days past heads OF families
have bean compelled to change diet, spend
<ng their money in new places and spread
ing their tables with articles quite unusual.
For the time, inconvenience are felt, out
eventually the departure from regular
courses will prove beneficial to health, II not

A HOUSE THIEF.-The residence of Mr..
Frerich, corner Of Third and Prytania
streets. was entered by an unknown person
Monday night and lot of valuables carried
away. The owner is across the lake, having
left family in charge of the premises.
When the wife discovered the loss she sent
word to Captain Robinson, who notified the
husband. The latter replied that he was
not much frightened, as all the jewelIy and
other vsluables were locked up in armoirs.
His idea is strong one, and will cause
burglars to grin audibly. Special Officers
Pierson and Harris visited the house and
found four srmoirs broken open, apparently
by green hand. The thief found more
plumber than he could carry away, as
several pieces of silverware were found on
the floor.
