The evidence in the Putnam inquest shows
clearly that the devil that did the deed was
Rum-the cause of nine-tenths of the muir
ders in this city. Foster, the murderer, was
'unquestionably crazed with drink-hopelessly
under its maddening control. 1t will not he
forgotten that only year ago summary
Justice was meted out to Jack Reynolds,
who, while insane with liquor, killed
an inofcnsive old man without provocation
AS summary punishment as his is likely to
.Overtake this man Foster. The COroners Jury
1as found beyond any doubt that he was the
guilty person, and the Grand Jury has already
framed an indictment against him for murder.
ills trial will speedily follow. 1t is not to be
questioned that strong public sentiment re-
Hulres prompt action in this case on the part
ot those who execute the laws, and demand
fi be heard that the full penalty for the oflense
shau be eXacted- Asense of public insecurity.

The diplomas, Of course, were all issued by
the Eclectic Medical College under one of its
many aliases, and the gentleman who pur-
chased these valuable testimonials. supposng
that it was the University of Pennsylvania
which testified in their praise as learned and
well-beloved disciples, often chuckled, we
have no doubt, over the little game they be-
lieved they had played upon that
venerable institution. We have no idea
how large business was done in
these deuding degrees; but the public has a
huge appetite for titles, and the trade was
probably brisk. Upon the whole, we are sorry
it is to be stopped. To be sure, the Eclectic
Medical College is said to have exceeded its
corporate powers, and conferred degrees which
were unauthorized by the Legislature and con-
seauently invalid; but we cannot see why
they were not just as good as the valid ones,
and as good, for the matter of that, as an
honorary title from almost any American seat
of learning. ID. DIS, and LII. DPS, and various
other ornamental DIS, have been getting
dreadfuly common of late years, and have
been applied to most preposterous uses; and
we rather think if Dean Buchanan should keep
up the business of comforting degrees by ex-
press little while longer, he would make
them so cheap that no respectable man would
be seen wearing one-which would certainly
be a great public relief.

Fort d'Issy, though apparently isolated from
Paris, continues to hold out, and great con-
centration of troops near it is going on. The
Versailles commander evidently means to force
the fighting here, doubtless impelled by the
German demands and inspired to undertake
hazardous enterprise by past successes.

where nothing is organized, and where the

teers." In continuation, the general COM
plains that renforcements had not been grant
