prietors might be charged with violation
of their part of the contract but to nopur-
pose. All efforts to compromise the diff
ferences between the parties have failed.
The elevator firm have brought several
suits against the Illinois Central for breach
of contract, and have recovered judgments
in all the actions which have been tried.
The first judgment for S., 600 the railroad
company paid; the second judgment for
$50, 600 they appealed, and the third suit
for $500, 900 has not yet been tried. The
attorneys for Richmond & jackson, the
plaintiffs, are confident of ultimately OBJ
tanning decisions in their favor in all these
cases, and of collecting the amounts re-
covered. The contract will not expire until
1876; and in the future, as in the past, they
will claim one cent upon every bushel of
grain passing through from the line of the
Dubuque and Sioux City road.

Advice to Young Ladies.

At the agricultural fair in Santa Clara,
prizes were offered for the best cooks
among the unmarried ladies. This is a
move in the right direction, and we hail
the fact as an evidence that we are to re-
turn to the simplicity of early times, when
our wives were help meets instead of 'help-
eats;'' when the young wife brought to the
matrimonial copartnership willingness to
bear her share of the burden and labor of
life; when one silk frock, one china-set,
half dozen of silver spoons, and counter
panes of her own patchwork, were evil
dences of the simplicity of her taste, the
economy of her life, and the promise of
future industry. Now the young bride
must begin where her mother leaves off.
He. outfit is a troussedu, gorgeous house,
rich in upholstery, mirrors, carvings, and
ornaments Of paint, plaster, silk, and vel
vet; she sneers at cottage where love is,
and prefers the cheap and snowy boarding
house to her own but humber home. The
Santa Clara Fair gives not only prize for
the best young cook who can manage a
cheap and economical dinner, but Other
prizes will be hanging round within scent
of the savory viands to nose themselves
out wife--awkward, beardless, robust
young farmers, ready to offer themselves,
their virtuous lives, their industrious hab-
its, their well titled farms, to bride who
will know how TO preside over the multi
farious duties of home in the country.
We advise our city girls to go in and win.
Show the country maiden that you, too,
know how to broil and bake, fry and stew
then, for the finish to your feast, give an
extra dessert--something to tickle the
farmers palate, and ten to one you will
steal away from the country the honorf
and lovers of the day. And when the
farmers boy a-wooing comes, accept his
hard hand and honest heart as a surel
anchor and firmer trust than the half
gentleman, half-hoodlum, who parts his
hair in the middle and offers to share will
you the chances in his lottery Of life. L
we had a thousand sweethearts, we would
advise all save one to goto the country
If we had thousand genteel, half-staryec
city friends, fighting the grinning fiend o
genteel poverty, striving to keep up ap
pearances, living beyond their means, il
constant dread of what the world woul'
say, slaves to society, we would say, go Il
the country. With half-a-hundred acre
of Gods bountiful soil, you may live hap
py, healthful, independent, sclfrespectet
and contented.

AN UNSOLVED MYSTERY.

Nearly three months ago man was found
murdered in his unoccupied house in Degraw-
st., Brooklyn. He had been reputable citi-
zen, a man of substance; and his Staying, sur
rounded as it was by unusually CHASTITY mys-
terry, shocked the community. For several
weeks there spread out from this bloody
horror a widening circle of shuddering sym
patty with the family OF the slain man, and
something like pitiful sorrow that strong
life should be so suddenly and causelessly
cut off. The activity of detectives was aroused
and all the hidden wires of police intelligence
vibrated throughout the country every effort
seemed to be made to lay bare the
mystery and arrest the murderer. A woman
who was 80 unfortunate as to have
known the murdered man was taken into
custody on suspicion, and was kept in close
confinement almost as long as public interest
was kept awake to the consideration of the
case. BY and by, it came out that the de-
ceased had had ga quarrel about woman )"
then the base details of liaisOn with COM
mon commercial woman were dragged I'M
willingly to the light; and much of the
tragic pathos of the murder was lost in
the low comedy in which this mercenary
virago figured with her weak paramount, fret
ting and quarreling at the last about the
amount of money needed to bring the bur-
lesque lOve-passage to an end. The town
laughed and blushed by turns as it con-
templated the sordid, immoral picture. But
from that moment all interest III the case
seemed to expire. Possibly, some faint
show of pursuit was kept up; the
sleuth-hounds Of the detective force may have
noiselessly followed the faint trails which they
had found; but for all practical purposes in
yestigation in behalf of outraged law has
come to an end and the whole matter has
apparently been dismissed TO the limbo of
battling, impenetrable mysteries. There may be
here lesson for the moralist; but we do not
choose to pointit. Our concern is that great
and natural excitement has died away, and the
murderer has not been brought to justice.
Nevertheless, the killing of Mr.. Goodrich
was a murder, 30 far as the law can establish
any facts. His Staying was just as much an
outrage upon the sacredness of human life as
il would have been if he were ono Of the
unrest and nObest of men, and had fallen in
defending his own property or the safety of
others. Whatever the moral sentiment of
community may be, it has no right to inquire
into the antecedents Of the murdered man ex
cept 80 far as may be necessary to find clue
70 his murderer. What were his eptangle-
ments, what his secret iInmoralties and furtive
gratifcationsP These questions have no place
in any motive which should stimulate the pur-
suit and punishment of the blood-stained fugi-
tive. A human life has been wantonly and
violently taken; and just so far a. detection
of tho guilty is baHled, so far are the ends OF
Justice thwarted, the safeguards of society
destroyed, and the security OF tho
living put in jeopardy. Is this mys-

A NEW LEASE or LIFE.

The decision Of the Court of Appeals grant
ing a new trial to Edward s. Stokes was
wholly unexpected, even by his most sanguine
friends. He has always expected it, and his
blind faith was regarded as proof of his I'M
reasoning folly. There seemed something in
sane about his certainty that the rulings of
the Supreme Court which tried him, sustained
by the opinions of two of the best Judges of
the Supreme General Term, would be finally
reversed His Hope has proved in this in
stance better guide than the Reason of the
best lawyers.
The case has been remarkable one in
every respect IL change of venue is ever
Unsuitable in an intelligent community this
was a case for it. It was impossible that it
should not be affected if tried here by issues
which cannot properly be admitted into case
involving life. There were violent prejudices
for and against the prisoner and the murdered
man to be contended with on the bench, at the
bar, and in the jury box. There were
strong personal influences and large moneyed
interests, as well as personal enmities, act
ing on both sides. Political consider
atoms also existed, to slight degree
only, it is true, but yet affecting the issue
materially, for the secrets of old associ-
ates and cOnfederates of the murdered man
had to be protected. Further, the case was
originally tried when the bench of this dis
trict was falling to pieces Of its own corrup-
ton, and judges were under suspicious which
measurably disqualified them or compelled
the postpOnement or advancement of the case
in the calendar
Taken out Of this atmosphere of contending
passions and conflicting interests to the higher
plane of the Court of Appeals, the whole case
has been reviewed dispassionately, and the
conviction is declared to have been obtained
enormously. The reasons adduced in the de-
cision are all worthy Of consideration; but one
point alone will suffice to justify the conclu-
sion which the judges of the court of final
resort have reached. The glazing error of Judge
BoardmanS charge was that having admitted the
killing, the prisoner also admitted it to be
murder, and must justify or mitigate it, 1t
placed upon him tho burden of proof of his
innocence, and relieved the prosecution of tho
duty Of establishing premeditated purpose
