The orang. coroasra and His Jury.

There are some persons whose propensity
for falsehood would excite the envy of the
about the rioters killed on the 18th of July,
and in repeating the bigger lie that they
were Hibernians or Irishmen. Well, there
were forty cOrpses brought before the cor
| oner's jury. These murdered citizens we
classify as follows, with their respective
ages and nationalities: l,5f
Natives. Mary York, New York, IL ;
Augustus P. Gilbert, Connecticut, 80 ;
Thomas j. Spring, New York, l6 George
N. Washbnrn, Massachusetts,, % William
Shorter, New York, 10; Richard Douse,
Pennsylvania, Sc: Samuel Wyatt, New
York, 80; and Walter r. Prior, Louisiana,
Here are nine native Americans, all we
believe Protestants some of them mem
bers of Protestant churches, and yet,
over their early graves and in the ears OF
their broken-hearted relatives they are
called Hibernian rioters.
Germans. William Tasting, 40 Freder-
ick Heiness, SO; Conrad Sieger, %. Three
Germans, and, we presume, Protestants,
stigmatized in their collins as Hibernian
fioters.
Englishmen. Thomas Mccormack, ~ F.;
Thomas Dugdale, IS with Charles Buck
land, of Australia, % and Alfred w. Har-
rington, of Canada. Four Englishmen,
and all Protestants, stigmatized by the
murderers as Hibernian rioters.
Then there were twenty two Irishmen not
one of them rioter, yet most foully stigma
tized with their murdered fellow Americans
as Hibernian rioters, and two persons un-
known. t5.4.,t :. s,f,,
Now, the street where these men were
done to death was full of policemen and
detectives. They kept such strict look
out that not even a pistol IL q mans pocket
couldesoape their detection. The military
were there by the thousand, and on every
inch of the ground. The reporters, in a
body,..were on the spot, IN front of the
Orangemen, at the corner of 9Th avenue
and Oath street. lynx eyed and keen, with
pencil in hand, and yet not one of them
saw any one killed or wounded by any of
the people ON the sidewalks or houses, and
not one of these detectives, policemen,
militia, or reporters produced at the coro-
ner's inquest say that any sufficient provo
cation for firing had been given.
Let US see this coroner's inquest. We
remarked that it was a curiousIy selected
jury. Whoever fixed it kept clear of the
Irish Am erican element. We recognize
only one probable Irishman out of the en-
tire twelve summoned, showing that the
coroner did not have the same proclivity
towards Irishmen that the rioters bullets
had. But to proceed.
DR.. Marsh gave q list of the dead, and
the cause of their death, contradicting the
lie got up for effect that some persons in
the crowd had killed the woman and the
girl for wearing Orange colors. The coro-
ner's inquest finds that they both died of
gunshot wounds, not pistol balls bnt min
ME bullets.-Irish World.

RuLLFrs AND BALLOTS.

A late telegram from Mexico says
Juarez lacks one hundred and ten votes
of majority for President, with four
teen districts to be heard from. ana II y
expected these will give sufficient mum,
her az votes to elect him. Members Of
the opposition make a different compu
tation, and aIlege that majority OF the
votes for any Of the candidates IS impos'
sible. Both parties are armlng.
The Mexicans have tried ballots and
bullets for quarter of a century, and
have reveled in the beauties of republl
canism, but they have learned nothing
IF the ballot sustains particular leader
all right; but if it does not, ell wrong
Then comes the bullet. Such a thing as
submitting gracefully to the will of the
majority, is what Mexican never
thought Of doing.

RADICAL OUTLOOK.

The Cincinnati Commercial (Radical)
says there is a row in the Republican
party in California. The President S
brother-in-law there is unable TO settle
it. There is another row among the Re
publicans of Wisconsin. The Federal
oiiee-holders there are accused Of being
disturbers of the peace. The row in
Alabama between the Federal Office
holders and the rest of the party is in
full blast The situation in Louisiana il
certainly not happy The presence Of
the United States bayonets at Repubh
can convention does not look healthy
There is a profound feud in Pennsylva
MIA, and Cameron is as helpless as Borie
There is disturbance in Massachusetts
Missouri and New York have beer
thrown away. Half dozen Southern
States are thoroughly in the power o
the Democracy. And still feeble
minded persons are telling us that tn
Republican party has no alternative bu
to run the Grant family for all the Office
now in their possession.

WASHINGTON, August SO.-It is the general
belief, in view Of the opinion Of the Attorney
General, that Commissioner Douglas has not
vacated the Office Of Deputy Commissioner;
that the only way out Of the difficulty Is for
Douglas to resign the latter Office. which he
will doubtless do within a short time. The
business Of the Office renders the first Deputy
Commissioner responsible, and under the rul-
ings Of the Attorney General, such an officer
can't be appointed until Congress confirms the
promotion Of Mr. Douglas as Commissioner.

ever. been the practice in the army. when an
officer was promoted. 10 fill his place in the

TIE QUESTION OF TIE DAY.

The Orangemen paraded yesterday in
New York with banners and all the in
sigma of their order. Not hiss was
heard as they passed through the streets.
That was right. 1t was right and emf
nently proper for them to parade after
the riot, to test the question of whether
one set of people may do what another
set Of people may not do. If any So
ciety has a right to parade, the Orange
men society has that right. As it was
contested recently at the cost of blood,
il was proper that second test should
be made to ascertain whether that and
all similar exhibitions are to be attended
with bloodshed. The mob appears to
have been content with the first expert
ment it made. Many of the ruff
fans sleep in bloody graves, where
they should be. We don't care
anything for the Orangemen, but we
do care that they shall have equal
privileges. An attempt in this country
to set up exelusiveness in matters involv-
ing therights of the people, should be
met with resistance so firm that ruff
fanism or any other ism would never
dare to repeat it. When it comes to
what the New York mob demands, the
country sin state of war-man against
man. woman against woman, and child
against child The proper argument
where rufiians rebel against law, society
and civilization, is the bullet or the gal
lows. Well, then, the right of any soci-
ETY. or class to parade in the city of New
York is settled. Civil rights are mutual.
But we have a question Of right which
appertains exclusively to the South.
The dirtiest rabble of Europe, the
green scum that covers the surface
Of our society, may parade, vote and
hold Office There ia no ban put upon
the rotten wretches Of all nations who
are cast upon our shores. When they
are ground through the naturalization
mills, they can vote, hold Office and be
citizens. But the brightest intellects Of
the South are under cloud. Their
very virtues are an irritation to hostile
government, because it is corrupt
Their talents are an irritation, because
the Government is ignorant. We de-
mand the cessation Of war on these
men. 1t is unnatural and infamous.
Wilson, Of Massachusetts, and Jacob
Thompson pay tax to the Government
and bear its burdens. Wilson can sit in
the Senate, but Thompson cannot. Will
son is a citizen. Thompson is taxed
outlaw. Who can have respect for a
Government, pretending to be republi-
can, that taxes men alike, while it grants
rights to one which it withholds from an.
other? Let the Departurists depart and
the Bourbons stand still That is not the
question. 1t goes deeper; it involves
personal and political liberty. That
and the question of the rights Of tbs
States, constitute the real, the only issue
Of the day.

with the Wesffiefd Disaster.
NEw YoRK, August 3O.-During yesterday
hundreds of persons called at the Morgue
to indemnity, if possible. the unfortunate
woman whose remains we're found in trunk
at the Hudson river depot. 1t was Claimed
last night. that the woman had been reeog-
nized by several acquaintance on Bayard
street as Miss Figa Rosenwig. native Of
Poland, aged nineteen years, and neice OF
DR.. Rosenwig. They state that she lived at
SO Bayard street, with some relatives. The
doctor had not seen his neice for upwards Of
seven years until she came to this country,
about a year since. when she removed to his
residence, in Amity street, where. it is said,
he effected her ruin on the first Of May. he
took up his residence in Second avenue, and
from that house, it is supposed. the corpse
was taken to the Hudson river railroad de-
pot. The pretext DR.. Rosenwig made for
removing her to his residence was that the air
of Baxter street was not good for her. Yes
terday morning Capt. Kennedy received in
formation which led him to watch the premises
at $50 Pearl street, and during the day he ar
rested Mrs. Hanna Goldwasser. the half-sister
to the doctor. who was supposed to be the
woman who had conveyed the remains to the
depot. She was confronted with the boy and
carman pickett. but they failed to recognize
her, and she was subsequently discharged. 1t
is believed that the woman who had the re-
mains conveyed to the depot is still in the
city, and that she will be found to-day.
It is believed that the grand jury will to- day
nresent in the Court Of General Sessions, in
dietments against Messrs. Vanderbilt, Brais-
ted and Robinson, well-known in connection
with the Westfeld disaster.
