For the first time, it is stated in the judicial
annals of Massachusetts a man John {. Dennis
of Worcester) has been arrested and held TO
bail for attempting to commit suicide. We
believe that there is no statute applying TO the
case, but the offense is well-recognized one
at common law--the fact being that one has
no more legal right to kill himself than TO Kill
any other person. The liberty of JelO-de-@
has been so long permitted that the whole
popular notion about the matter has become a
mistaken one. There has been no punishment
of this crime, partly because when it fails OF
consummation the perpetrator is pIted, WhlIe
if he succeeds he is beyond the reach OF
human Judgment.

Ireland does not mean peace altogether-at
least her agrarians do not. Capt Rock, Of
revolutionary memory, Capt. Moonlight, Capt.
Nightfall, and Rory of the Hills, if not other
heroes Of agrarian melOdrama, have been
sending deadly warnings to the farmers Of
Mayo. A party of men have marched
into Swineford and demanded the release
of a prisoner on bail. Young men, ostensiby
fowling, have been engaged in illegal drilling
Disaflecton has occurred among the Irish police
of Tipperary, and Fenians have made sue
ceSsful raid on the police barracks Of County
Clare. These are English reports, of no very
formidable character as compared to the fact
that Mr.. Gladstones Land bill has been ac-
cepted by the Irish members of Parliament;
but they indicate trouble not to be spirited
away by the mere breath of Parliament, or the
mere dead letter of concession.

The somewhat stale, if not shallow. theory
of insanity forms the basis of the defense IN
the case of Reynolds for the murder OF MIR.
Townsend The trial was begun yesterday III
a shameful scene of confusion created by an
indscriminate crowd, and the prosecution briefly
presented the plain facts of the prison
er's theft of tho knife, the intrusion into
the store-room of the murdered man,
the deliberate fury of the attack and the
stabbing and desperate resistance OF the MUIR
derer on his arrest. DR.. William A. Hammond,
for the defense, was examined, and testified as
to the sanity of the prisoner in language which
was utter Greek to the average American jury
man. The counsel of the prisoner doubtless
has very little faith in his theory. or he would
have required the testifyng surgeon to give
his opinions in words which the jurymcn could
comprehend. The trial will probably conclude
TODAY.

The street pavements are legion; and their
varied names thrust themselves daily on the eyes
of newspaper readers in reports of Aldermens
proceedings ordering them to be laid, and pro-
tests of citizens against the orders. Occasion
ally we see them also in the vctoes of the Mayor
and we shall shortly observe them in the legal
reports. The latest shapes which the swindle
takes appear under the names of the "Stow,"
paul" and robbins" pavements. We know
no more of the quality of these patents than the
Board of Aldermen does, which is precisely
nothing; but We are willing to learn more. We
have no objection to the testing of each and all
of the patent pavements, but we earnestly pro-
test against the costly experiments of paving
streets from river to river and avenues through
out their entire length with untried material
bunglingy put together, when the paving of a
single block or a few blocks would afford a
cheap and convincing test.

ism that it was definitely settled that the
story had been conceived out of whole cloth in
the brain of a shallow-pated fellow who fur.
nlshes one of the city papers with unfounded
rumors and inaccurate reports. We do
not share in the hope or desire we have heard
expressed that the proprietor of the sheet in
question should dismiss its rOmancist. Onto
the contrary. We trust he may continue 10
serve it to the end of brief existence. Such
exposures Of the manner in which sensational
news is manufactured will eventually educate
the public to appreciate what is Of value and
what is not; and the legitimate end will then
be the dismissal not only of the sensational
paragraphist, but also of the sensational papers.
