THE CASE OF REV. DR.. CHENEY. "A
year and six months ago the trial of Rev.
DR.. Cheney Of Christ Church, Chicago,
before an Ecclesiastical Court instituted
by Bishop Whitehouse was brought to a
close by an injunction issued by Judge
Jameson. An application was made at
the time to have the Injunction dissolved,
but Judge Jameson sustained the injunc-
ton and continued if. Anappealwas ta-
ken from Judge Jameson's decision to the
Supreme Court. That Court has just
rendered decision, reversing, Judge
Jameson's decree and dissolving the in
junction. AS there is no farther restrain
ing power upon the Ecclesiastical Court
it will probably proceed with the trial
of DR.. Cheney in accordance with the
rules of the Church as expounded by
Bishop Whitehouse. And if DR.. Che
ney should be both heightened and
shortened by the operation of the iron
bedstead, there is no remedy but sub
mission till he is liberated from the ma
chine. 1851

This is a strong vote for the first on
Woman suffrage. And we are glad to
see that three of the Wisconsin Repre-
sentatives voted for it, How many who
voted against it realize that they voted
against allowing woman to exercise her
right of choice And how many would
deny that the right of choice inheres in
woman? Suffrage is but the right of
choice il choosing ones representative,
and if woman is deprived of that right
of choice she may as well be deprived of
any other right Of choice. And just to
the extent and SO long as she is deprived
of any right Of choice, just to the same
extent and the same length ofitime is she
made slave. And though some may
not realize the slavery and will not ask
and might not be willing to enjoy free
dom, the slavery is none the less degrad-
ing. And it is the duty of all lovers of
freedom to labor to break every yoke
and to let the oppressed go free.

s- ment.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 9.-The couTt-mar-
tial which recently tried Major Hodge for
embezzlement sentenced him TO be cashiered
and forfeit all pay and allowances that may
be due him at date, the PRONUNCIATION Of
this sentence, to be imprisoned for ten
years, in such Penitentisry as the proper
authority shall direct, and thereafter be inn
prisoned in such Penitentisry until he shall
refund TO the United States the amount OF
his embezzlement, $455,406. The latter
would be equivalent TO Imprisonment for
life, as no one supposes this requirement
would be fulfilled. The President there
fore disspproved this part Of the finding, but
approved that which consigns him TO the
Penitentiary TO labor for ten years. The
Penitentiary at Albany IS designated as the
place for confinement
