Ir seems that the new Temperance Law is
likely to be a fruitful source of litigation in
some localities. The city attorney of Milwau-
kec has given it As his legal opinion that the
.sill is imperative so far us that city Is con
cerned The Attorney claims that the law
conflicts with certain provisions of the city
charter, which grant to the Common Council
special powers TO regulate and license the sale
of intoxicating drinks. But his strong point
is that the excise law and its several amend.
menls exempt Milwaukee, as section ten OF
the temperance law especially declares that
the excise low remains undsturbcd. The
following is The section referred to:
Sec. TO- Nothing in this act shall be con
strucd as repeating any Of the provisions of
the excise laws of this state, nov in force, or
OF the law prohibiting the sale OF intoxicating
liquors Ia minors.
1t is said that the cities of JancSvllc, Fond
du Lac, Oshkosh, Portage, Watertown, Green
Bay, and probably others, have similar pro
visions in their city charters, as those in the
charter of Milwaukee, and will come under
the excise law in the same respect How is it
with Mineral Point?

cuted many beautiful pieces during the even
ing Rev. H. Stone Richardson, a brother
Odd Fellow, occupied more than half an hour
with an address, the cloquencc, force and apti-
tude of which held the wrapt attention and
elected the admiration and applause of every
one present. That Odd Fellowship is sus-
tanned and advocated hy such champion,
must convince every unprejudiced intelligent
mind that there is merit and virtue in the
Order. Mr.. Robert Hay contributed to the
evenings pleasure by reciting with excel
lent effect a little poem suited to the occasion.
Rev. ID. w. Evats was called out but, being

THE END OF THE JEWELL TRIAL.
Ac0uiffaI of the Prisoner.

The trial Of Lucicn n Fcwell for the murder
of james T. Clarke, was concluded yesterday,
and the prisoner acquitted. Upon the opening
of court Judge Ncol presented the following
instruction to supplement those offered by the
defence yesterday, touching the plea Of lnsan-
ity: THE insanity contemplated by the series
of instructions granted the defence in this case,
may proceed from one Of two distinct species
of disease Of the mind, either Of which, if u
person was laboriug under at the time OF COM
hitting the act, might render him irrespons-
BILE therefore, however criminal such an act
might be in person free from disease. The
first is when the disease SO affects the mental
or reasoning faculties of the brain that the per-
ture and quality of the act he is doing, or if he
does know it he does not know that it is wrong
The other is when the disease so affects the
moral faculties that the person subject TO it is
liable at any time to break out into snch
paroxysms of violence that it is impossible for
him not to give way to them, and this though
the person at the time is fully conscious OF the
nature and quality of the act he is doing, and
that it is wrong. The difficulty in such cases
is to determine whether the act proceeded from
passion or malice on the one side, or from
diseased mind upon the other. 1t is for the
jury to say-if they believe the prisoner COM
| nitted the homicide with which he is charged,
from all the facts in evidence before them
whether he was at the time Of committing such
act, aboring under either of the aforesaid
diseases of the mind, and so affected thereby as
to render him irresponsible for such act
Mr. Mcrefee, for the prosecution, then com
menccd aud concluded his argument IN the
case, which was an able one, and in which the
law and the testimony was discussed at length;
| The counsel for the defence then submitted
proposition to give the case to the jury with
out further argument. The Court referred the
motion to the counsel for the prosecution, who
declined to accept it, Governor Wisc,, remark
ing to Judge Thomas that he could not be
caught, as he knew him Judge T. intus ct in
cute-from centre to circumference.
The concluding argument was very brief, ex-
Governor Wise making only short speech
The case was given to the jury at night and
after they had been out but very few minutes
rendered verdict Of mot guilty" The prison
er was then discharged from custody, and thus
ends the story Of this famous tragedy.

Letter from Fauquier County.

Correspondence of the Alexandria Gazette
WARRENT0N, Nov, l2.--Our good people up
here, although decidedly soured by recent per-
formances bear their misfortunes with praise
worthy fortitudc. Calamities fall thick and fast
upon them. The horse disease has broken out
in full force in nearly all their stables They
stand stole like. Quite number of cases of
this strange disease are reported, but none very
serious. We regret that the same can not be
said of the cases OF Radicalism that have broken
out among the men. Altogether the number of
Radical white men in the town is very small, but
they continue to make themselves obnoxious,
not content with having worked like beavers 10
the late campaign for the humiliation Of our
State, plotting the colored men to the polls,
and encouraging them. They still think it
their patriotic duty to be so. Only two colored
men in Warrenton precinct voted for Greeley,
and one of them, Davy Lancaster, who follow
ed the fortunes of the Black Horse Cavelry in
the capacity of cook all through the war, and
has ever voted with the white man, had his
winter supply of provender burned by an in
cendiary Friday night If such thing had
been done to Grant colored man, how horri-
BILE would have been the crime, and how many
Ku Klux laws would it have called for! We
are happy to relate that purse was speedily
made up for Davy's relief by his enemies, the
Conservative white people. Saturday night
the colored people built large bonfire in
Main street and made great disturbance by.
firing of guns, &c. On being warned by.
the authorities to deslst, they refused, and
it was not without difficulty that a large
posse of citizens enforced the Mayors or
ders. No violence was resortcd to, however.
Thus we see now that the election is over that
we can't "trammel up the consequence, y and
that, that blow won't be the be-all and the
end all here" Carlyle said, on the question Of
foreign intervention in our late war. that the
American war was the dirtiest chimney that
had been on fire this century, and should be al
lowed to burn itself out. !" His advice was fol-
lowed, and it was allowed to burn itself out in
four years Of hot devouring flames, but alas !! it
seems the flames deyoured only the best coal
that fed them, and left the chimney worse
than ever, and now, almost eight years after
the flames have ceased, the smoke is blacker
and more sulphurous than ever.

France.

PARIS, November ia message of Presi-
dent Theirs was received by educational Assem-
bly, and read to-day The message begins with
thanks to God for the progress Of the work OF
reparatiou, and the general prosperity of the
country.
Referring to the extraordinary success of the
last loan asked by the Government, it says the
whole available capital of the commercial world
was offered to France Half Of the loan has
been realized in three months. Germany has
been paid S00,OO0,0 900, francs of the war in-
demuity, and she will receive POO, 900, 900 more
10 December.
The budget shows deficit of l32, 100000
francs for the past fiscal year, but estimates
show that the equilibrium of expenditure and
revenue will be restored in 1873 and a surplus
may be looked for in 1874.
Allusion is made to the disasters Of the late
war, the cruel ACKNOWLEDGMENT Of the country,
the frighttul burthep it had to bear and the
establishment of the Republic. All these
things suddenly bursting on a surprised and
disheartened country might have resulted in
irreparabe disaster if order had not been
maintained A forcibe appeal is made to
theoretical Republicans not to spare even ex-
cessive sacrifices for order in their own interests
Events have given them the Republic, The
Republic exists as the legal Government, and
an attempt atany different form ofGovernment
would lead to the most terrible revolution.
The President dcprecates formal proolama-
ton of the Republic by the Assembly. The
better policy would be to impress on the instl
buttons of the country the features Of conserva-
tive Republication. The Republic must be
conservative, otherwise it cannot exist. The
absolute need of France is respose The mass
es might live through few days Of agitation.
After frightening others, it fears ITSELF and
falls into the arms of an adventurer, travelling
the sad and humilating journey from anarchy
to despotism, and despotism to anarchy.
The slightest fault is sufficient to wreck the
Republic France, orderly and strong, inspires
confidence 10 foreign Powers, who desire above
all just equilibrium. France, if she chooses
not to isolate herself, may become surrounded
by trusting and useful friends. To the Assem-
bly, is left the initiatory Of constitutional meas
ures. The decisive moment has arrived for
the work.
The President promises Difference, co-opera-
ton and devotion, and concludes by invoking
God to bless the work of the Assembly and
render complete and durable consummation
which has not been attained since the COM
meucement of the century. The message was
we'll received by the Left to whom 1t gives great
satisfaction. -
A Conservative moved the appointment of
committee to draw UP reply. The motion
was agreed to by small majority. 1t is
thought the message will lead to an early dlsso-
luton of the Assembly.
