Permit me, in the exercise OF my prerogatives as

perative necessity that Its laws must be rigor-
ously enforced and justice impartlaly accorded to
all. Let US see how far uhis is consistent with
the administration of justice among us to-day.
Buckhout was recently convicted Of murder
and sen fenced to undergo the extreme penalty OF
the law So far, good but civil dignitary In an ad
jacent city, in the arrogance of his judicial author
ity, or perchance, some other cause esteemed 1t
his duty to grant what is termed "a stay OF pro-
ceedings in the case" Foster, after heightened
and exhaustive trial, was also convicted by an In
the same knight OF the Ermine. the modern Solon,
interposed his Official authority and granted

sentenced and hanged within sixty days 0f the
commission Of his crime. without enumerating all
within the past few years, without descending to
the thrilling details, which have chilled our moral
atmosphere, we would argue that some well defined
line Of action, some welding OF the sword OF JUS
ttce, some awakening Of the lethargic principles Of
law and order, are vociferously and Enthusiastically
called for and if-asit would appear-0ur criminal
jurisprudence Is unable to cope with crime efll-
ciently and successfully ana is not calculated to
suppress vice ~ tae tnousaua Iorihs WHICH ~ & u.s.
popular feeling must manifest itsolf and demand
remedy for these glaring Inconsistencies. Men
must arouse themselves to action when their lives
are In their hands. Our social economy affords
striking paradox when personal safety and the
liberty Of the citizen are unscrupulously ignored.
esteem the groundwork OF our moral government
ism which constitutes tie chlef PROPORTION of our
citizenship OF to-day. If there Is not some sub
stratum OF our social system, If there is not some
undercurrent at work. we imagine that the time
has arrived when crime must receive the punish

score OF murderers who rest securely within the
precincts OF the Tombs must be brought forth to

NOVEMBER 10, 1872.
To THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD
DEAR SrR-From the events which are daily oc-
curing in the metropolis, 1t is very evident that
unless the people arouse themselves to the neces.
sity Of demanding that justice shall be admins.
tered to the murderers who are now crowding our
jails, New York. which now bears no enviabe noto.
riety for assassination, will become the home of
lawlessness and crime There is no city which has
better code OF laws than New York, and yet in no
city is the law SO persstentiy dlsregarded. Here,
even when prisoners have been found guilty they
are frequently retried-to w.t. Rozenweig and
Heinrcis; and again. that the case Of Chief of
Police McWilliams should be allowed to remain In
allegiance is, per Sc, q disgrace to the government.
The horrible murder Of witness yesterday must
bring to the mind Of all law-abding citizens the
necessity OF putting stop to the present state Of
things How Is this to be donea We look to your
widely circulated paper for some suggestion by
which the judiciary may be compelled to take
prompt and decisive measures to rid the fair page
OF our city history from the unseemly blots which
grow thicker day by day. Apologlzing for tres
passing on your valuable space, l am, dear sir,
yours respectfully, CITIZEN.

Their Influence Upon the Air.

The delegations Of Kowas, Comanches, Ara
pahoes, etc, now in the East, visited the Mary
land Institute Fair, Friday. The Baltimore ca
zette says:
::Af3er they had been conducted to the apart
ment in the Maryland Institute assigned them,
all OF the young women took to the floor, some
of them in q sitting, but most of them in re-
clining position, and spent the time in combing
their hair with small cards, similar to those
used for carding cotton and wool. Shortly after
Cottage Restaurant, On North High street, where
dinner was prepared for them. As soon as
dinner was announced, they did not need
second invitation, but marched in single file to
the dining-room, whore two long tables we're
spread and abundantly supplied with roast beef,
potatoes, bread and butter, and fruit Without
ceremony, as soon as they reached the table they
fell to work and ate ravenously for full half
hour. Most of them showed 8 remarkable fond
ness for butter and bread, and their mode Of
eating it was to first swallow 3 piece Of butter
about half the size of an ordinary egg,
and then take small piece Of bread. The
principal article Of diet, however, was beef,
ate nine large slices, equal to about
two and q half pounds. While the dinner was
going on scarcely word was spoken by any of
hem; indeed, there appeared to be no time for
tslking until the business in hand Ind been got
through with. One large Indian, who sat near
plte Of picked cucumbers, and he took the
LARGEST on his plate. One-half Of the pickle
wen; into his mouth and down his throat, but no
soon,r was it swallowed than he slapped both
handt on his stomach. and rolled hia eyes up
ward d horror. Evidently he had not been used
to thatsort OF relish. AL finished eating at al
most tbs game moment Of time, and at signal
from Caotain Alvord, who had charge Of them,
they retlrned to the reception-room, when the
women aEaip went to the floor"

lnstdng fuss about it: They are NOW engaged
in ntearlng the Illinois to pieces, and it requires
! 800 men to d. it, and will take these 300 men
sbont ten years, at the rate they are going on.
Add the wages Of al these, for I'll this time, to
the original cost OF the vessel, and to this the
cost Of the new ship to be built under the came

md when the Illinois comes out, about SIG, ,O00,-
The way It IS done m tie cur and
red-tape Office is this: To build 3 new vessel

all that sort Of thing, and, when these are
asked for, the politicians and newspapers raise q
howl Of spasmodic patriotism, and, therefore it
is dangerous. But a ship can be repaired to any
extent, involving any amount Of MONEY money, and n no
noise about it. The department, therefore, is
noT engaged in repairing the Illinois. They
