Jury Challenges.

The State Legislature seems to hesitate about
abolishing the cumbrous machinery Of triers
when jurymen are challenged upon suspicion
of being favorable to the people or prejudiced
against prisoner. Several Bourbon lawyers
have said at Albany that the abolition of triers
would be unconstitutional and against the
common law procedure, which always sane
toned their employment, and therefore was
engrafted upon the constitution by the use of
the word 'inviolate," when they assert "the
trial by jury shall remain inviolate" But in
the recent publication Of the United States
law of 1872 we find the following act,
that certainly would not have passed Congress
had there been doubt of the constitutionality

liament-The Irish University Bill
Rejected.

Premier Gladstone Defeated In Par
liamcnt-Tho Irish University Bill
Rejected.
The British House Of Commons after an
earnest debate, has rejected the Irish Univer-
sity bill proposed to Parliament by the Glad
stone Cabinet. The division took place at an
early hour this morning, in q very full house.
There were five hundred and sew
enty-one members present Two hundred
and eighty-four voted for the bill and
two hundred and eighty-seven against it The
majority against the Ministry is consequently,
three. The announcement of the result pro-
duced great excitement in the clubs and at
the chief centres of news. The House of Com
mons adjourned to Thursday. This vote may
have very important results. Whether Mr..
Gladstone will accept it as decisive defeat or
a solemn pronouncement against his admins
trative policy in general-against his educa-
tional plans particularly to be seen.
Should he regard it in this light he would, or
should, resign. He has been defeated before
by small ajorities|larger than the present,
however-and retained Office notwithstan-
ding. The present vote indicates that the
opposition has been rolling up new force
and concentrating its strength with great
skill for effective use. 1t proves also that the
powerful sections of the High Church party in
Britain proper are closely arrayed against the
ecclesiastical legislation of the Premier, and
that it will require the utmost effort on the
mart If his friends in Ireland and AMONG the
English and Scotch democracy, and in the
Universities to sustain him in power. Should
the Ministry survive until Midsummer Mr.
Gladstone may resort to dissolution of Par
lament, and try his chance for reinvigora-
ton Of his official life at general election.

we'll His achievement belongs to the chivalry
of journalism, and we are proud in pointing
to other dashing feats of the HERALD men, to
say he does not stand alone
In perusing the interview with the Captain
General it will be observed that he lays great
stress upon his dissatisfaction with the report
of Mr.. Henderson, our former Commissioner
to the island. We can admit of no tenable
ground for this dissatisfaction outside the
question of its truthfulness. A betrayal of
confidence" on the part of Mr. Henderson
can only exist SO far as he may have departed
from truthfulness in his writing, and it is
something which, if proven, we would
resent and condemn as forcibly and
heartily as could the Captain General.
Our contract of faith is with the public, and
not with correspondent, upon matters of
fact. We are confident in our present Com
missioner's honesty and impartiality; of his
determination to spare no shortcoming, Cuban
as well as Spanish, we have already sufficient
evidence. 1t is because we believed that more
was to be told than had already been made
known that he was charged with his present
duty. If there are any doubts about the
true state of affairs in Cuba he will set them
forever at rest. 1t is for this reason that the
friends of liberty and humanity will look SO
anxiously for O'Kelly's report, to learn the
inner secret of the struggle, not merely from
the side of the picturesque, but in its finest
social, moral and political bearings. We can
promise distinctly that what General Ceballos

Mr.. EDITOR-Although the office of
County Auditor is not generally regarded
as of much consequence, it is really one of
very great Importance, and requires first
rate man intelligently to discharge its
duties. 1t is an Office of honor and not
of profit and one which no man in the
county ought to be ashamed TO fill, or re-
fuse to accept. 1t is, therefore, to he
hoped that the next County Convention,
in the selection of u candidate, will not
act hastily, but with due deliberatiOn. |
want to see a Board of County Auditors
assemble next January which can dis
charge its duties sciihOtt the aid and assist
aBce of u clerk, as has been the case for
some years past. The Auditors have no
legal right to employ clerk at the eX-
pense of the county. If they cannot per-
form their duties and are compelled to
have clerk, they ought to pay him them
selves out of their own salaries. The
nomination by the County Convention OF
a man of sound Judgment and good cieri-
cal qualifications will obviate the necessity
of and remove the excuse for the appoint
ment of clerk, or fourth Auditor. Triiting
as the matter may appear to some persons,
it is nevertheless one in which the people
of the county have deep interest, and
ought therefore to be carefully considered
and iudiciously disposed of by the Con
vsntion, 4 DEMOCRAT.
