you noticed that snch .old fashioned Ion

order Of thinga The lawyers have had
given unto them . new revelation. 1t Is
STANCE how stupidity the world. for centu'
ries, adhered to the simple law Of God and
of man, that if proven guilty Of the crimc,
the murderer should sexpiate Ills dhense.
The exhaustive physiological research of
this decade, entering the mysterious arcanum
of the soul, and fathoming the profound
depths Of reason, has shown thatimurdc may
be no crime, and that insanity vinaicates as
sassination; and in this the courts have sus-
tanned them. 1t is not yet denonstra-
ted that all murder is done in insanity;
that would be q step too far; react against
the theory, and dissipatc the occupation Of
tho theorist But in remembrance of the
Sickles, Harris, Cole and numberless other
cases already determined, it is demonstrated
that persons (vho can procure good coun.
scl,) always nave nm opportune ct of insan-
ity while committing murder, are cleared
upon that plea, and beconas exceedingly
rational thereafter. The Mcfarland. Rich.
ardson case is being tried by the defense
wholly and solely upon that point. If
cleared, we may well anticipate . repetition
Of the Sicklcs domestic reconciliation, while,
perhaps, the least guilty of the three has
gone odt from life. The Courts have not
only to demonstrate their power to protect,
but to punish-else they acquire disrcpute:
Az the law and practice runs, insanity ex-
cuses murder; insanity is no crime, and
any wealthy murderer who ever had an in.
sane second cousin, or talks maudlin non.
sense in his cups, can evade punishment for
the decd insanity is not treated Is crime,
and in these instances is merely temporary.
It lasts long enough to attract sympathy
and evadc punishment, and then the assas-
sin walks high-headcd through tho world.
Arc not these things travestie upon justice?
Do they not bclittle the courts, inspire con-
tempt for law, and incitc communities 10
take the administration of justice in their
own hands? Is not the frequency of these
successful pleas Of insanity alarming and in
crcasing and does not the better sense of
the communities condemn the majority as
evident evasions of meeting the charge
upon its merits! What is the remedy ,, In. .:
sanity proven and life taken thereby, is
the pcrpetrator safe to be set, free among
his fellows to repeat the deed9 This in.
sanity evasion cannot 60 much farther. If
it incitcs deliberate murder, i: should be
held crime. But the fact that it is merely
o dodge to avoid meeting the consequences
of . deed, and nine times out of ten IL q lie
legally choked down the throats Of an out
ragged community, will result in amended
legislation or mob law retribution on often
ders. The country has had enoughof It.

shows the wheat crop to be above the
average in nineteen states. Average
depreciation, thirteen per cent.

average Of wheat. The increase Of
acreage in cotton is twelve per cent,
and aggregates nearly million OF

condition Of the oat crop is full av-

The aggregate increase in the accr-

The appearance is superior 10 Ken.

g'c view Of directing the dcstinics Of Il

has now arrived for France. Prussia
70 whom We have given evidence du-
ring anI since the war Of 1866 Of the
most concil'a.ory disposition, has held
our'oood-will OF no account, and has
returned our forbcarance by cncroach

armaments, and has made Of Europe
camp where icigns disqnict aud fear
oi the morrow.
The iinrl incident has disclosed the
suitability Of The international under.
standing, and shown the cavity OF
the situation. In the presence Of her
new pretensions, Prussia was made to
understand our claims They were
csaded and followed by contcmptous
treatment. Our country manifested
extreme displcasurc ut this action, aud

posing the great Germanic nationality
shall dispose freely of their destinics.

now II This for nigh voting :

The following piece Of information
from the New York Tr,bue Of the 14ih
inst, on the honesty of Democratic
elections in New York city, is worth
contemplating, besides far more accu
rate than could be had fgm 40 inves.
ugatiou of the frauds themselves.
In ten voting districts where the
votes footedup i7,6l5 at the recent
election for Judges Of the Supreme
Court the census rcturos make the
eu'irc population %, 400, considerably y
more than twice a. many voters as
there are population. The usual av-
eragc of voters to population is one TO
siy Ii is more frequently below this
ratio than above, but this is the first
instance on record iu which the vo
tcrs exceeded tho population more
than two to one 1t shows the won.
derful perfection to which the Democ
racy have corricd elections. 1t mus
he remembered that the Democrats Of
New York City had n majority at the
last election va,icusly estimated at
T ON 80. 900 to 100000.
The T1bune says:
The new census rciUi1s begin to
show whether the I.jGrae did or did
not do injustice TO the Democracy at
opr last election in charging them
with the most shameless frauds 10
some Of the Wards in this city. Here
is the table of ,otal population, men,
women, chldrsn r';eos add citizens 10
certain Wards, and Reside il the vote
reported as cast 10 the Same pnces
last May by male citizens above the
aye OF n.y-onc, having the other
legal qualifications Of voters. How
did tlcie come to he twice us many
voters us there were inhabitants oi
all ages and both sexes, unless there
was fraud ! Aud if, as some ilippani
papers have brazcnly pretended, the
Republicans committed the frauds,
how did the Democrats come 10 get
ce votes ! Look al the mons,ror
records
