TRIED AND SENTENCED.

Our readers will recollect that last
November Miss Susan B. Anthony
appeared at the polls in the city Of
Rochester and offered her vote, claim
ing that the late amendments to the
Constitution of the United States
gave her the right of suffrage, and
that it was accepted by the board Of
election.
For this act she was prosecuted
under the laws of the United States.
On the 18th inst, the case was
called up in the United States Court
at Canaudagua, \. !. Able counsel
appeared for Miss Anthony, but the
court decided the constitutional
questions against him and directed
the jury TO find ayerdtct Of guilty.
Miss Anthony on being asked by
the court if she had anything to say,
why sentence should not be pro-
nouced. said she had much to say.
that she had not had a fair trial, that
every principle Of justice bad been
violated. that she had not been tried
10y jury of her peers, that men
were her political superiors, &c, &c.
She was launching out into ha-
rangue. evidently Of some length, on
her pet theories when the judge in
formed her that those questions
could not be reviewed. She was
sentenced to pay fine Of one hun
dred dollars the Judge adding that
there was no order for her to stand
committed until the fine was paid.
The experiment Of Miss Anthony
will he judged Of very differently BY
different parties according to the
light in which they view the womaa'S
suffrage movement. but it seems to
Us that all must admit that her con-
duct in attempting to force a review
Of her theories and opinions on the
court under cover of the privilege
always granted to the convicted. was
entirely out Of place and will only
serve to bring reproach on her and
her ideas.

KENDALL COUNTY FARMERS,

The radical politicians played sharp game
in the Kendall county farmers convention
last week to prevent the adoption of resolu
ton in favor OF nominating AN Independent,

present but one had been democrat, vet II
majority were in favor Of cutting loose from
old party ties, but were tricked out of pass
ing the proper resolution by the chairman de,
Gliding their resolution, in the mode present,
ed, "Out of orderw The Iorkyille Netcs in.
dignantly warns the radical tricksters that
the people, without regard to old parties,
will defeat their plans" The NecS, thor
oHghly republican rs it has hitherto been, is
disguised with its old party associates, and
scouts the idea that political party can be
purified within itself"
The hendoN County Rscord, also heretofore
am ardent republican paper, is equally cxpli,
cit in remuneration of its old party letters. 1t
says:
The republican party has done noble deeds
IN the past; but some evils have grown IN
under it in the country which it has not un.
dertakcn to control, chief among which are
the railroad and bank mOnopOlies Since the
agitation of these questions party leaders say
these evils shall be remedicd; bat if the pc0.
pie should quiet down now and say nothing
and do nothing more about it, they would
never hear of any reforms in these directions
and they might better have kept still from
the beginning. continual agitation will
bring about some action; but an agitation
with the understanding that all are TO remain
in the old party whatever is done is like the
mouse agitating himself in a trap. He may !
