THE TRIAL OF MRS. WHARTON for murder,
now going on at Annapolis, Maryland, is
likely to develop one of the most remarkable
gases Of alleged homicide on record. The
high social position of the parties invests the
case with peculiar interest, and the amount of
scientific acumen brought out in the testimony
Is only equalled by the evidence given in the
famous case Of Professor Webster in Boston,
who was tried, found guilty and executed for
the murder Of DR.. Parkman, a notable citizen,
several years ago. We daily give full reports
Of the case from our own reporters. They
will be found we'll worthy Of perusal.

/, ARREST OF CHARLES CALENDER Charles s
Calender, who has heretofore filed the
Office of Inspector or Examiner of Banks
under the authority of the United States, was
brought before Commissioner Osborn yester-
day to answer the grave charge of having ac-
cepted bribes for the purpose of influencing
his report in reference to the condition of the
Ocean National Bank. The defendants
counsel stated that as soon as the accused
heard there was an imputation thrown out
against him he made efforts, which were in
effectual, for the purpose of surrendering
himself to the custody of the Marshal. Bail
for Calender was fixed at twenty thousand
dollars, and Immediately given. The ex-
Smination was set down for Friday. This
matter brings into prominence once more the
affairs Of the Ocean Bank, with which the
public have been so recently made familiar.
Pending the inquiry in regard to the charge
alleged against the defendant we shall soy
nothing that can possibly prejudice his
case. We merely express hope that there
will be full, fair and searching investiga-
tion.

The American Press and tho Prince OF
WaIcs-The Hsrald's Enterprise and tho
Grown Of England.
The London journals wonder at the enter
prise of the leading American press in report
Ing the progress Of the Prince of Wales ill
ness from the moment of its inception
tQ the period Of the commencement of
bis convalescence. Our transatlantic con-
temporaries are astonished at the fact that
the condition Of His Royal Highness at six
o'clock in the morning should be announced
daily on this side of the ocean at the very
earliest next succeeding hours Of the forenoon
tho same day. They acknowledge that the
Accomplishment Of this American enterprise
makes lone Of the marvels Of journal
ISM" So it does. We are glad to
find that the London papers class
the work as zone" Of the "marvels Of
journalism" It really makes ''one" in the
history Of the American press professional
wonders. The HERALD afforded much more
wonderful newspaper marvel by its vigilance,
energy and cash outlay when it specially oon-
1eyed the fact of the great triumph of the
soldiers of His Royal Highness mothers army
pt Magdala, in Abyssinia, from Africa to
Egypt telegraphed the news from Alex
andria to London and from London to New
York, published the report hero at day
break, having simultaneously announced, the
great victory to Horse Guards and in the
palace at q moment when the Commander.
in-Chief and the Grown were ex-
teedingly uneasy concerning the result
Of the expedition against the warrior
Theodorus. In this we relieved the trepida-
,tion Of a European monarchy, just as we have
lately consoled the paternal anxiety Of the
great potentate Of Russia by our report of
the safe arrival of his son, the Grand Duke
Alexis, in the bay Of New York. The
Americas people expressed very deep interest
in the case of the Prince of Wales-particu-
larly after they had heard of Lord Chester
fields death from fsver-and we were bound
to satisfy it. We rejoice that we have been
enabled to do so in manner which is satis-
factory to all parties.

The Coming struggle.

The New York World takes the position
assumed by US last week, that in the canvass
Of 1872, there will be no need for platform
demanding the repeal of the reconstruction
bill, which has expired by limitation; nor
Of the fourteenth amendments which, with
a patriotic Congress, can infict no injury
upon the States, North or South because the
enactments under those amendments are
repealabc by Congress whenever there is
democratic majority, and until there is such
majority, the rule cfthe bayonet cannot be
averted by any peaceful agency.
But however solicitous, we, Of the South,
may be in reference to the issue and the
conduct of that campaign, we have no other
choice than to accept such preliminary ac-
ton as Northern DEMOCRATS may agree up
on, and to make the fight upon the terms
they may dictate Al we can do in advance
is to urge upon Northern democracy the ut
most care, in every step it takes and every
doctrine it proclaims. to make no direct is
sue with fanaticism and to avoid every ex-
preston that may be tortured by the wick
| eddy ingenious or the wifully malignant
into sympathy for the rebellion or the reb~
! els. As long as there is a living Radical
| he will be intensively sensitive on that sub
iect, solely because such sympathy is ar
implied condemnation OF all that Radicalism
! has done in reference to the Inauguration
and conduct of that unfortunate struggle.
We have no doubt that the entire demo
cratic party Of the South is ready to cooper
ate, with that Of the North, under any lead
ers it may select and on any platform it may
frame.
We hare nc where else to go,and our very
helpl9ssness should be strong incentive
to prudence on the part of those upor
whose shoulders must rest the entire re
sponsibility for the result.-CIarksvillt
Chronicle
We are of the opinion that the Demo
cratic party in the South will have Il Yoic,
in the coming National Convention, and tina
its delegates will be given full, free and fai
expression; and we are also Of the opinion
that two points will be made by them: Stat
rights and equal taxation Nail those plank
down in the platform, and the radical part,
is crushed, to rise no more. If the leadin!
journals throughout the land would droI
their local political wranglings, and discus
as they should the questions Of State right
and equal taxation, it would be productiv
of great good to good cause.
The Bolivar bulletin. [volume] (Bolivar, Hardeman County, Tenn.) 1865-1888, 1871-03-25
SnunH DGc1rEmN.

In the opinion of that able and induen,
tial Journal, the st. Louis Republican, there
are very few Democrats in the United States
who do not beiIeve that the process by which
an unwilling ratification of the Fifteenth
Amendment was extorted from twothirds Of
the States, was violent fraudulent and un-
constitutional; and we may add that there
are few reflective Republicans who do not
believe the same thing. The recent remark
able conduct of the Indiana Republicans in
boldly impugning the ratification which their
State gave the amendment, by denying the
egality of the body that pretended to ratify
it, is indubitable proof of our assertion.
Republican Journals and politicians may talk
vociferously as they please about the ne
cesSity Of the amendment ''to secure the re-
suits Of the wal" but when brought face to
acc with the naked question of the consti
nationality of its ratification, there are few
Of them who will answer in the affirmative.
