ever heard at the Louisiana bar. The OPP
posing counsel quailed before the storm Of
eloquence, and discceetly refused to at
temp. to reply. In order. however. to
hide their imbecility. the leading attorney
for the Defense with q degree Of GOODNESS
that IS quite remarkable. preceded his am
rouncement that the defense would not
argue the case with the very thin excuse
that there had been no proper opening.
This statement is seized upon by 4 par
tisau press as the cue Cor them to bark
vociferously at the eloquent advocate. and
q: the same time to revive an old legend
that is regarded by all decent men as Col
onei Lowell's misfortune but not his fault.
As there were six or eight volunteer at
torneys for the prisoners, and the State
was fairly represented by able counsel.
Colonel Lowell did not feel himself called
upon to follow the beaten track III his
opening argument. He discussed the
philosophy. the morality. the decency of
the case, which the Herald does not fully
understand, leaving the abstruse legal
points to be discussed by those who did
not understand the other branch Of the
subject. Therefore the Herald ''chal-
lenges history" to produce parallel to
the enornity of that address. Perhaps
the history that our modern Dogberry
has consulted can throw but little
light upon that or any other subject, and
it is not important whether it does or not.
These are earnest times. We are now
making history for ourselves. not follow
ing precedents. And we can inform the
Herald that one such man as Colonel Low
ell is worth thousand of the old livers Of
the past days, and the DEGREES Of the present
times are binding upon the men who now
live on the face OF the earth. while the
examples of history are not specially bind
ing upon anybody.
According to the Herald, there have been
two crimes committed. One is the mistake
Of the man who failed to kill Governor
Kellogg, when he was ordered to do so by
his political superiors; and the other is
the attempt of Colonel Field and Colonel
Lowell to ferret out the guilty parties.

Murder is the child Of morbid self-will.
It is an old story, yet ever new. Adams

still priding themselves on the achieve

ventors and sole patentees Of the article;
still nourishing by false indulgence the
spirit Of ill regulated self-will that de-
stroys, ii possible, all that opposes it, still

no means ye. devised seems effect

Of the gallow's fruit seems only to
enrich the ground for a more plentiful

in vain fox thousands Of years. In this
respect civilization has made no advance
on barbarism; nor has the greatest stick
ler for literal obedience to the teachings of
the Bible succeeded in bringing the sta
tute books Of Christian nations in accord
with Gods first word on this subject
These words are an emphatic reproach on
the accepted doctrine of blood for blood
which legalizes manslaughter in expia-
ton Of murder; for when Cain, who typi-
fes self-wi!l and the rule of force. says
that his life will be taken by man in pun.

whoever slayeth Cain, vengeance shall
be taken On him seven-fold"
Is it not time that our lawmakers
should act in accordance with these
words, and devise some others means to
check the reign of murder. than man

open their eyes to the fact that unre-
strained indulgence in seif-will is the root
Of most Of the misery and wickedness in
the world
