HANGING ENGINEERS. Conn. West e'n Nesos, commenting on our views of the proper punishment for railroad slaughters, infers that we propose some species of tor ture more dreadful than hanging. The Ne,cs misunderstands us. We do not be- heve m any KInu or punsnWeEJD Dy U01ture, not even in hanging, the sole relic of that once prevalent barbarism. What we did propose was that by legislative enactment the single question put to the jury should be that of the criminal carelessness of rail- road employe or official, leaving the pun ishment discretionary with the judge. No'0 the jury have to decide upon the punish ment as we'll as upon the guilt of the &C., cused. If they find him guilty of murder in the first degree, they in effect sentence him to death; if of murder in the second degree, to perpetual imprisonment. It is the practical confusion of the question of guilt with that of punishment which occa- sions so many remarkable jury verdicts in cases of homicide. To avoid this and to present the simple question of guilt to the jury and the entire responsibility of it's punishment to the court, is all that we pro- pose in the matter of ''railroad slaughters. !"

BURGLARY ASA POLITICAL ART.-When a Democrat gets into tight place. now-a- days. he commits burglary. Things went against the Democracy in the Fourth Ward of New Haven. last spring and they resorted to burglary. Comptroller Connolly's ac. counts were unproducable, so he breaks in to his own office, the night before they were to be examined, and burglarizas every one of the vouchers he had been asked to produce.
 Unluckily Mayor Hall. with strong re- collection of the result in New Haven, has no faith in this plan of covering up theft with burglary, and bawls to Connolly to resign. Even the World echoes the re. quest and the Ring is no longer circular. The only remaining question is how many rogues are to be punished. Sweeny is sneaking out of sight, Barnard is granting injunctions against his old friends. Tweed and Hall may, probably will, follow Con- molly. Then comes conundrum for the marines: "Are New York politics to be pure, at last?"
