The Rev. Myron w. Reed, now located
IN Milwaukee, Wisconsin, is well known in
New Orleans as a progressive preacher of
the day, one who never wore sanctimo-
NOUS face or clerical uniform, and when
seen with his soft hat and ordinary dress
would scarcely be taken for clergyman.
Ia illustration of this fact, the Columbus
PepubLica,, re- ates the following:
Mr.. Reed was ON the train bound for osh-
kosh, a short time since, and fell IN with

from the Oshkosh depot 10 a hotel. After

The escape of Berth and CAIRO has pro-

Is grounded on common law as we'll as COM

But be was waiting for tho result of his
appeal to the Supreme Court, and another
chance at the sensibilities of an intelligent
jury of free and independent equals. SO he
was, but he is not considering that subject
now, and would not manifest any anxiety
about it if the subject was mentioned. Most
of the intelligent jurors have more anxiety
about the safety Of their household goods
than he about legal bubbles. But he ought
to have gone up the river when he was first
sentenced. The argument to the contrary
is bosk. He was not present when his case
be may present himself to any OF them in
