A Case Of Perjury.

A short time ago, the people OF this
city were shocked by the report of
"horrible outrage in Harlem" A girl
of thirteen years of age made affidavit
in one OF the Courts that certain man
whom she named had induced her TO
enter a shanty, where she was subjected
to force, and violated under the most
cruel and shocking circumstances The
accused was arrested and incarcerat ed
to await trial; and the Indignation Of
the people of Harlem against him was
so great that the reporter declared he
would have been lynched it he had fall
en- into their hands. When the case
came up for trial on Tuesday last, the
complainant, on examination, declared
that al! her previous statements were
false, that the outrage never took place,
and that she had been induced to make
the complaint by other persons. Where
upon the man who had been accused
was "honorably discharged by the
Court.
But is there to be no penalty for the
real culprit IN this case, who not only
committed perjury, but who charged
man with a crime of which she now
says he is guiltless--a crime for which
he would doubtless have been severely
punished if she had persisted in her
original falsehood, and for which, as it
was, he suffered imprisonment for near
ly ten weeks while awaiting trial7
There could scarcely be more wicked
or atrocious offense than that of which
this girl was guilty; and she, as well
as the persons who induced her to COM
nit perjury, should be severely dealt
with by the law. We trust the case
will be investigated aud prosecuted
We have been led to believe from the
the Developments in several analogous
trials of late years, that this case is not
without precedent. There have been
instances in which conviction has fol-
lowed trial on simiarlarly false charges,
but in which the truth did not appear
till it was too late 10 remit the penalty.
These bad girls who are induced by
base persons to perjure themselves as a
means Of extorting money, or crushing
some wretched victim, should be taught
that they are guilty of a crime which is
followed by severe retribution. We
should think there need be no difficulty
in getting hold of the persons VIII o
were in conuivance with Mary Matilda

The DownG,II Of the IDapacy.

We give, on our second page, a
graphic account of the entrance of the
Italian army into Rome a few days ago,
Since then a vote or plebiscitum has been
taken, and of some fifty thousand, there
were only forty-seven votes given for
the Papacy. This truly ends the Papa
cy, for though the Pope has often been
driven from Rome by Kings and EN-
perors, and indeed by mobs, this SOL
emn, and, we may say, universal cx-
preston of the popular will---the on
ly Legitimate power given to man--set-
ties the matter, aud after eight hundted
years of priestly rule, the immortal city,
at two thousand years ago, is its own,
it not the mistress of the world, The
Papacy is the Oldest power in Christen-
dom, and even admitting that, in The
past, it did far more good than evil in
protecting the people from the tyranny
of kings and emperors, we think all
reasonable people will say that it is no
longer needed, aud therefore will wei.

The Woman Question.

There has not been much said on
the question of woman suffrage during
the past summer But the matter will
no doubt be pretty thoroughly agltated
during the coming winter, 1t is doubt
ful whether the Ohio Legislature will
take any action in the matter If the
friends of universal suffrage will send
up petitions in sufficient numbers to
convince the members of the Legisla-
ture that great majority Of the people
ofthe State are In favor OF the move-
ment, there will be no disposition to de-
feat the will of the people. We would
suggest that the women especially send
up petitions. II is generally claimed
that the women themselves do not want
10 vote OF hold Office, that when ma
jority Of them ask it, then it will be
granted, Now let petitions be circula-
ted at once, in every township, in every
school district, and in every family. II
the people desire the change, let them
say so, II they do not, let that be made
manifest

One of the saddest events we have
been called upon to record, in long
time, is the sudden death on Thursday
last, of Mrs. Garis, wife ofCol. Q. Gar
is, our County Sheriff, which occurred
at DR.. Hamilton's Dental office. Mrs.
Garis went to the Off onAthat day,
for the purpose of having some teeth
extracted. She desired to be placed
under the influence of ChlOrOform dur
ing the operation, and as DR.. Hamil-
ton never uses ClOroforn in his prac-
tice, in any case, DR. Wilson was called,
and administered it to her, DR.. Hamil-
ton tltcn proceeded to extract the teeth;
after one OF them had been taken out,
she seemed not TO be entirely under
the influence of ChlorofOrm, and asked
to have more, but almost Immediately
afterward, tainted and never revived,
expiring in short time. Scarcely two
hours after leaving her home in perfect
health and excellent spirits, she was
carried back corpse. The blow falls
heavily upon Col. Garis and family,
aud in their affection they have the sym
pathy of opr whole community. There
are many erroneous statements of a
censurable character afoat, in regard
to this case. The probabilities are that
no blame for the result should be at
tached to any one -Fayette Co. Herald.

"Somebody at the West writes of one

greater part of a street railroad in
Washington, has 500, ,OOOin bonds and
money, and is interested in immense

he could not have had chance to make
