Snow STORMS, NORTH, SOUTH AND WEST. -
On Thursday last they had the severest snow
storm at Buffalo and along the lower great
lakes and the st. Lawrence that they have
had up there for several years. On the same
day they had the coolest weather of the season
at New Orleans. Icicles from the rain gath
cred on the trees and telegraph wires. On
the same day they had snow in Savannah,
Ga, for the first time in thirteen years. On
the same day, at Selma, Ala, the weather
was intensely cold, and they had their heaviest
snow of the last ten years. On the same day,
from Omaha, we had the intelligence that, from
Cheyenne westward, the Pacific Railroad at
numerous points is badly blockaded by snow,
and that the cold, at some points thirty-six
degrees below zero, was along the whole line
intense. On the same day, in the latitude of
this city, and for hundreds of miles north and
south of this line, from the Atlantic westward
to the great Plains, the skies were bright and
the air was sharp and fresh, like that of
dry, dusty, clustering day in March. Yester-
day, however, the Signal Service Bureau
gave warning that this fair weather for us had
nearly run out; and so, we suspect, it will be
our turn next for snow, sleet or rain, and,
perhaps, for all three. After two or three
weeks in January of continuous sunshine we
may reasonably expect great change.

The Murray.Coulter suit.

AS was generally anticipated, the protracted
litigation for the possession of the Office Of
Justice in the Yorkville Police Court resulted
in disagreement of the jury. No twelve men
could possibly decide between two such great
authorities in law. The action was to decide
whether Coulter, an immaculate magistrate,
or Murray, terrible warning to evil-doers
and pocket fees in the disputed district. It
has been frequently stated that great deal of
public interest was attracted to the case; but
it was not so. This is not the time for popu-
lar excitement to be manifested in such case
The public is Indifferent between such con-
testants, and is disguised with the admins
tratiou Of the law in the lower Courts. It
does not signify the value of Sir
Robert Peels historic ''row of pins"
which popular candidate" for a magistrates
position and emoluments succeeds in obtain
ing the suffrage of his friends. The result is
the same to the general public. It Is not
matter of surprise that the jury in this case
have disagreed. If any party to the legal
tilt is deserving of sympathy it is the jury
who had to listen to the miles of evidence
presented. The result of the suit will prob
ably put an estoppel on any further prosecu-
ton of the Stemmler-Maguire controversy.
AS to the civil justlceship, our reform Legis-
lature cannot do better than take this case of
disputed right to administer justice according
to Cocker, as a text for useful law on the
subject Of Civil and Police Justiceships.

FRENCH AGENCIES AND THE INTERESTS
WHICH MOVE FRANCE. France is moving or
being moved, either towards another change
In the form of her government or for q
solemn ratification of the democracy of the
republic. Napoleon's agents are actively
employed in circulating pamphlets in the
army advocating an imperialist restora-
ton. Communism is about to be natural
lied on the soil on new basis of fede-
ration. The new Education bill of the Theirs
government has been condemned by the for
NAL protest of fifty -one bishops, with, we sup
pose, 'sother" dioceses ito hear FROM" With
Bonapartism on one side and Communism as
the horrible foil, or's.terrible example, on the
other. and the hierarchy and Theirs interme-
diary on the dividing line IT popular conserva-
tism, we expect that something, permanent will
be done for the French people at ~ early day.

THE POSTUM PoLIoY-which is the policy Of
turning over the democratic party to the anti
Grant republicans-does not 90 down even in
Missouri, where it was started. For instance,
the St. Louis Republican, a leading demo-
cratic paper, says :-"victories are never won
in that way, and never should be-" and that
''such follies deserve defeat and disgrace"
In short, we are afraid that General Blair and
his fellows will have to give up the possum
ptelcy, for the old birds are not to be caught

THE WREToHED GEORGE BoTTs yesterday
suffered the extreme penalty Of the law, and
the unfortunate ''Pet" Halsted was avenged,
so far as hanging can satisfy the vengeance Of
society on those who take human
life. This is New Jerseys idea Of
dealing with vulgar murderers The cause of
the sad business was double intrigue with a
bad woman. One paramour shot and killed
the other; the shooter was hanged yesterday.
In the Tombs number of convicted assassins
are patiently waiting for society to get tired

his account, receives a bank book, in which
all sums that he pays in are entered, and each
entry is signed by the postmaster and
stamped with the Office SEAL as
guarantee of authenticity. In addition to
this receipt the central bureau sends to the
depositor notification that the amount of his
deposit has been paid in by the postmaster to
his credit If this notification fails to reach
him be at once makes inquiries, and if there
has been any dishonesty on the part Of the
postmaster it can be Immediately discovered.
By this arrangement the eyes of the whole
body of depositors are turned on the postmas-
ter, 80 that any extensive embezzlement on
his part is rendered almost impossible.
The encouragement which this system gives
to men of small means to cultivate habits of
economy, by assuring them against loss. can
not fail to have most beneficial effect on the
mind of the working classes 1t makes them
realize the possibility of improving their condi-
ton by sobriety and industry, and gradually
wins them from tho thoughtless extravaganza
which characterizes the industrial proletariat
in all countries. By inducing more intimate
acquaintance with general business the sum of
popular intelligence is increased and the
foundation laid for still further advances in
the road of popular Improvement. Nor
can the effect on the material interests
of the country fail to be most adj
vantageous, as large sums of money,
hitherto spent In idle or criminal dissi-
patton, will be turned into productive indus
tries, and by this means the general as we'll
as the individual interests will be advanced.
The advantages to be derived from system Of
savings banks which, Offering absolute Sc
curity to the working classes, brings the place
of deposit within easy reach Of every indi-
vidual in the nation, have been placed hey ond
question or cavi by the success Of the expert.
ment In England. There can be no longer
any doubt Of their utility or effectiveness in
developing among the poorer classes an un-
wonted and healthy economy. And as the
well-being of the nation depends upon that of
the individuals who compose it other nations
will no doubt soon follow in the track of
England, by establishing some system which
may be in keeping with their peculiar insttu-
tions, but having the common aim of en-
couraging industry aud thrift among the
masses by guaranteeing absolute security to
the savings of the poor.

The Japanese Banquet in San Francisco
Plain Talk to Penny Politicians.


Plain Talk to Penny Politicians.
At the banquet given to the Japanese EN-
bassy in San Francisco the other evening
Governor Booth, republican, presided, and
Ex-Governor Haight, democrat, made well
coming speech. But the cream of the pro-
ceedings was the speech of the Rev. Horatio
Stebbins, who ''spoke right out in meet
ing" against that California demagoguism
which both parties have played there against
the ''heathen Chinee." Said the Rev. Mr..
Stebbins :-'While we are here tonight WOO
ing the commerce Of the Old Empire, your
Governor (pointing to Governor Booth), as
the head of one political party, and ex-Gov-
ernor Haight, as the representative of the
other, are committed to policy to exclude
those people from our shores. The position
is absurd and ridiculous. As policy 1t is
nonsense; as principle it is nowhere. Be-
ware when you put that penny in your purse,
lest the eagle on the reverse side of your gold
coin sticks his taions through and scratches
the face of Liberty" Well said, Parson
Stebbins.
We are next told that this plain talk raised
the widest excitement in the meeting, and
round after round of applause that Governor
Booth got out of the scrape as well as he
could, and that Ex-Governor Haight judi
ciously kept quiet. But the main point is that
this Japanese Embassy has developed great
change in public opinion in California on the
subject Of Asiatic immigration, including the
Chinese with the Japanese; and that the Cali
fornians are beginning to understand that the
mighty commerce of those industrious nations
is an object to be cultivated, even to the
extent Of tolerating in civil way the immi-
grants from Japan and China. Those were
capital shots of Parson Stebbins at the dema-
goguism Of the leading California party poll
forward that they will cease to groveI in the
dust at the feet of those senseless rufians
whose greatest feats of herosm are cowardly
prosecutions of the defenceless Chinese.
Commerce is king, and these brutal prejudices
of race and color in our party politics must
give way to the king. These stupid persecu-
tons, even of the poor Chinese in California,
must be stopped, says Parson Stebbins and
we second the honest parson. The trade
which the Pacific Railroad has opened between
China and japan and our Pacific coast is
opening the eyes of the Californians but the
trade is but bagatelle compared with that
which in few years, with any encourage
ment, will pour from Eastern Asia into San
Francisco.

THE MORMON POLITICAL CRISIS is rapidly
approaching. According to our dispatches
from Salt Lake, published to-day, Governor
Browns veto Of the measure, passed by both
branches of the Legislature, providing for q
delegation to draw up State constitution, is
hourly expected, and as soon as it has been
received the Council will organize convention
and begin upon the work of choosing delegates,
notwithstanding the protest from the Execu-
tive.
