r1sK,s MURDERER CONVICTED.

Stokes the cold .blooded murderer OF
the Notorious Jim Fisk, was found guilty
of murder in the first degree, and will
be sentenced to be hung. His fate VIII
still hang in the balance, however, for
with his money aud artful counsel, he
NAV obtain a new trial. and continue his
life much longer. His conviction is q
surprise to the country, and will have
good effect on society at large. There
is a prevalent idea that under the jury
system of the country, which gives
preference to ignorance, criminal with
plenty of money can, nine times out OF
ten. evade the extreme penalty OF the
law. The court records Of the last few
wears sustain this opinion, and enconr-
age desperate men to take the law into
their own hands at any real or imagin-
ary injury, and lay their enemy low
with pistol, knife and bludgeon. Fisk
was UNANIMOUSLY corrupt and shamelessly
immoral. He defed alike the laws ioi
God and man, and by his glitter and
show of wealth, and apparent great sue
cess in life and immense influence, he
corrupted the minds Of thousands of
thoughtless people, especially the young
who read of him in the newspapers and
Hashy pictorials. But he was cut down
in the glory of his career; laid low by
an accomplice who was as destitute OF
principle as himself, and the murderer
has fne prospects of expiating his
crime under the gallows, thus making a
double example, and illustrating that
the way of transgressor is hard.

Mrs. JOAQUIN MILLER lectures on her
husband, and travels abroad to do so.
In this she is an exception to the gene
raj rule, under which it is supposed most
women lecture on their husbands aud at
them without leaving home. She made
her appearance at Chicago last week,
but created no sensation or great sym
patty. The spectacle of divided house
holds is too common in Chicago to chal'
lenge much notice. Mrs. Miller will
find it easier to get divorce there than
an audience, although she is a lady of
talent and has an attractive way Of tell
ing her story. If she could only elicit
al reply from her shaggy-headed hus-
band-poet and goad him into an appear
adee before the footlights to tell his side
Of the controversy, and assert that she
burned the buckwheat cakes while hirt-
ing with the hired man on the back
porch, the case would easily work up
some public attention, aud folks could
take sides. Like most poetical people,
Joaquin has a poor taste for the routine
of domestic life, and prefers to fly to
evils that he knows not Of rather than
endure what he has already tried.

it depends for support. And just at the present
