THE TRUNK CASE.

We had our doubts as to the gcnuineness
of this expression of general horror concerning
the Bowlsby case; and the general forget
fulness of it already apparent warrants
the incredibly. Nothing has keencr
relish for dramatic effects than the public
conscience; it is swayed by them every day to
this or that opinion in blind defiance of logic
or it's old prejudlccs. A skillful criminal law
yer who understands this, and knows how to
set the stage of Il courtroom properly, can
bring out what verdict he chooses for his
client against the most profound convictions
of any jury. We have seen woman proved
guilty of the deliberate murder of three men
receive trifling sentence by dint of mourn
ing dress and the adroit use of pale face and
pair of blue, appealing eyes. In recent case of
robbery in England, the prisoner had her baby
brought into the dock at the very turning
point of the trial. The twelve stout British
fathers surrendered at discretion. She was
guilty, undeniably; but. there was the baby !:
no reason or consideration of public morals
could put that baby out Of sight. They re-
vived long dead legal bubble on her behalf,
and bore her and the Opportuue infant on it
out of court. Tho public heart lately went
through one of its periodical spasms of
Indignation and remorse, reused, as it sup
posed, by the murder OF Alice Bowlsby and
the exposure of the hacknc ycd machinery of
the murder. hjut we are INCLINED to think tho

AS We anticipated, the Treasury Department
is beginning to gather its forces to rcpel the
charge that it is responsible for the long SC
curity with which Paymaster Hodge carried
on his frauds Oh the Governmcht-now in
creasing in reported extent. 1t is asccrtained
that the beginning of the dcccptions was rs
long ago as 1865. This is amazing. The sys-
TEN which permits such frauds to continn"'
uninterrupted so long, is monstrous. In how
many other sets of accounts has there been

The respite of Buckhout, the murderer, just
on the verge of the scailold, will undoubtedly
furnish a new argument for the abolition of
the death penalty. No such extraordinary
cxeriions would have been made by his coun-
sci, and no easy-gong Judge would have inter
posed with a stay of proceedings, if the con-
victed murderer was to be sentenced to prison
for life. AS it is, there is some probability
that the wretchcd man, like others before him,
will be turned loose upon the community. AS
long as we have Judge Pratts and capital pun
ishmcnt, it will be difficult to mctc out justice
to murdererS.

their danger. They have had four rival can

made fourteen. At last his opponents find
they must change their tactics, and talk of

The Supreme Court of Pennsylvania re-
Gently gave decision in an insurance case,
where the office refused to pay policy be-
cause the assured had given no notice, which
it had provided for, that he had changed his
occupation or business. While on visit to
his grandfather he assisted in hauling in some
hay, and while doing so received an injury
from which he died. The Court held that
there had been no change in his occupation
within the meaning OF the policy, and that
such construction would be unreasonable
and absurd, and would prevent the insured
from performing any act or service outside
his regular business or avocatIon without
rendering the policy null and void.

POLITICAL.

Hon. Thomas McCreery has carried the
democratic nomination in the Kentucky leg
islature, for United States Senator, and will
suspersede Garrett Davis.
The Cheyenne Leader gives rumor that
John M. Thayer, late United States Senator
from Nebraska, will probably accept the Gov
ernorship of Wyoming Territory.
The ST. Joseph (Mo., Herald thinks the
best way to "beat Grant" would be for the
democrats to keep quiet until election day and
then vote to make his election unanimous.
The Mobile Register is a very popular
Southern paper, which thinks it is high time to
cry, "The South to the front, and to abandon
the Worlds idea of keeping our late enemies
in the back ground. The Register says:
"This policy was a bad one, simply because
it was cowardly one. If the Northern DEM
ocrats had boldly stood up and demanded that,
the war being over, we were their peers be-
fore the government and the peers of the
most insolent radicals in the land, the Demo
cratic party would have been stronger to-day
than it is"
The editor of one of the Georgia Suns (not
A. II. S. thus expresses himself on the Pas
sive policy: "No sooner is that greatest of
humbugs, what was named new departure,
laid in the grave, than up starts another new
tangled project warranted to cure every po-
litical ill. The Missouri policy is now the
fashion, and all who will not wear that uni
form will, we suppose. be known as 'Bour-
bons, Rebels, and Revolutionists. 1t pro-
vides that the democratic party abandon prin-
ciple for policy, and go as an organized party
and select . renegade radical az our leader.
This is but the twin brother of the new de-
parturs' and of the same monstrous birth. We
hope this serpent will be strangled in its
cradle before its poisonous fangs are fastened
into the country.
