The LEEsBURG MURDER CASE bids fair to
Guido in horrible detail the celebrated Whar-
ton trial. From the full statements we print
to-day, made by Mrs. Lloyd, the alleged muir
deress, her servant and Others it appears that
she is charged with the terrible crime of poi
soning her husband, an aged aunt and four
beautiful children, by administering arsenic,
on which charge she has been lodged in jail to
await the action Of the Grand Jury. The YER
dict of the jury was based upon the circum-
stances of the sudden manner in which all the
deceased were carried off, that druggist had
sold her arsenic previous to the death of sew
ter Professor Tony, Of Baltimore, found o
grain and half of arsenic.

enterprise, genius for business and affairs, in
all that contributes to honorable citizenship
and the welfare Of the republic, they
have no superiors. While we make no
merit Of this, or in any way mean to en-
courage what might be called caste in poll
tics, the lesson that all men will learn is that
the heart of the nation beats for Grant; and
as the heart beats the body lives. The Greeley
Krackowizer meeting was stupendous. The
Cincinnati movement is powerful. The men

expect to see it larger still. It will be man.
aged with consummate political skill, as we
have no more crafty men in politics than
some of it's leaders. But we saw Tam
many enthroned and powerful, and man.
aged with extraordinary skill. The men
who arose in rebellion against Tammany were
the men who sign this call, the same class of
men in all respects. They opposed Tammany
not as political measure, but as a duty.
They support Grant for the same reason.
They hearken to the noise of the politicians,
the clamors about relatives and presents
and enjoy the humor and anger of the canvass,
just as the tired merchant may throw up his
counting house window and give few minutes
and handful of pennies to troupe of wan
dering negro minstrels. But when the time
comes to vote and act, and to spend money for
the honest purposes of the canvass, they look
gravely at the situation, and speak as
well as vote as honest, impartial and satisfied
men. They see that Ulysses S. Grant has
been prominently the President of the
people; that he has kept every pledge
made to his party; that he has avoided tempt
ing and embarrassing complications; that he
has ever studied and advanced the business
interests of the country that he has paid the
debt and strengthened the credit, and that if
he were to retire tomorrow he would leave the
country better, happier and more prosperous
because of his administration. AS Mr..
Greeley said a year ago. before his eyes were
dazzled by the unhealthy light of Presidential
ambition: -sHe misunderstands human nature
who fances that these facts will not tell in
Presidential contest" These are the facts,
have an angry canvass There will be all kinds
OF phenomena, quarrels III pennsylvania and
Indiana; intrigues and strifes to interest and
amuse us, and in the eyes of the politicians a
close and uncertain contest. Mr. Sumner will
probably be nominated in Cincinnati, with
Mr. Greeley as his colleague, and we shall
have an emasculated platform like that which
was created when Bell and Everett ran against
Lincoln and Hamlin. There will be trans
formations and changes and rearranging of
lines concessions and surrenders. But when
the electoral votes are counted it will be found
that the great, earnest, honest heart of the
country has registered the decree that Ulysses
s. Grant shall be President of the United
States for four more years, and that as many
democrats as republicans contributed to that
suspicious and happy result.

PRESIDENT THEIRS PRoNoUNcEMENT FOR
ROYALTY IN SpAIN.-The President of the
French republic has consoled King Amadeus
by an autograph letter, in which he pledges
France firmly in support of royalty as an ac-
complished fact in Spain. No Power, not
even Italy, is more interested than France in
the consolidation Of dynastic institutions in
the neighboring monarchy. So says the
venerable chief of the French democratic
government. He speaks, no doubt, truly, as
well as feelingly. Should Amadeus be forced
to retire from Madrid Theirs would have q
Hohenzollern Prince in his front, and, very
probably, the Internationalists and reds in
his rear. An uncomfortable prospect.

The Repaving OF Fifth Avonuo-A Prss>
teal Reform from Bcrgh.

Mr.. Bergh publishes letter in which he
announces his opposition to a recent PROPOSE
ton to repave Fifth avenue with some newly
patented wooden blocks, and declares his
preference Of macadam roads, He naturally
urges in favor of the macadam pavement the
additional safety it affords to horses, and over
looks the comfort and convenience it extends
to human beings; yet it is gratifying to find
the commendable humanity of the great phi
lanthropist taking practical shape instead Of
wasting itself upon SO triling matter as the
manner in which pigeons may be prepared for
pot pies and stews. Fifth avenue needs re-
paving. Its present condition is a disgrace tn
the city. The days of jobs are, happily, gone
by for the present, and hence we have no fear
that any wooden experiment will be now made
upon that fine thoroughfare. The avenue
should be macadamized from Washington
square to the Central Park without delay, and
the expense apportioned, one-third to the resi-
dents on the line and two-thirds to the city at
large. We should then have at least one
splendid drive equal to any in Eu-
rope. The Common Council has the
power to authorize the work, and it
should be done under the management and
control Of the Central Park Commissioners.
Will the reform Board of Aldermen take up
the matter and prove that we can now hope to
secure great public improvement without
being swindled and plundered?

The Worldwide Tribute to Professor
MOrsc's Memory.


--
The Worldwide Tribute to Professor
Morse's Memory.
In the hall of the House of Representatives
at Washington there met last night an assem-
blage to do honor to the memory Of Professor
Morse, wherein forty millions of American cit
liens were represented Not to all even Of our
great men has 1.-THE of such honor been ac-
corded as in the significant demonstration over
which Speaker Blaine presided last night.
with the Vice President by his side
and the President of the United States,
the officers of the Cabinet, the Judges
of the Supreme Court the Senators and Repre-
sentatives of the Forty-second Congress, and
the Governors Of all the States in the Union,
in person or by proxy. The speeches which
were delivered and the eulogies upon the mem
DRY of the great inventor which rung through
the hall and were caught up by the august
body present, beautiful and timely as they were,
fail in interest when compared with the notes
of sympathy which came clicking from the
desk before them, bearing words of recogni-
ton and regret from four Continents, joined
in the magic of an instant by the wires vibrat-
ing over the lands and under the oceans.
England, Ireland and Scotland joined in the
sorrow; from the gray old land of the
Pharaohs from Cairo, Egypt, almost within
grasping distance of the old, old, mighty
pyramid of Rameses came note OF wailing;
from Hong Kong at the gates Of the Flowery
Land, where another quaint old civilization
runs back to Confucius, came trembling note
of mourning, and from all ends of the wide
Continent Of America came crowding in ap-
propriate, eloquent words Of mingled admira-
ton and coincidence. Never since the
death of President Lincoln has any man
in America been so honored, and
never in the history of the nation has simple
citizens memory met with such wide, heart
felt respect And such is true fame. In the
words describing the early trials and sufferings
of the great old man SO lately dead, and in
the gathering that rejoiced he had lived long
enough to reap the reward of his genius, the
whole story is told. 1t might be an idea wOr-
thy of paganism that the pulsing waves Of
electricity which swept swiftly through the
great worlds breast last night had whispered
the words of honor in the soundless ears of
the master who first made them articulate, IS
he lies in his honored grave by the Hudson;
yet who will say that his spirit was uncon-
scious of the tribute to his name? 1t was q
fitting honor by great nation to the memory
of one of its greatest children.

Garrett Dubois, young man fifteen
years Of age, living near Wapakonncta,
Ohio, was out cunning the other day,
and while holding the gun under his right
arm, with the muzzIe nearly in the avn

Or some hard substance, bursting the cap,
and discharging the whole load OF shot
into his arm, ranging upwards into the
shoulder. He being alone in the woods,
with no assistance, came very near bleed
ing to death. After getting home, he
was too weak for the wound to be dressed,
and died the next day.
