cate thut Judge SIBERIAN, brother OF
the Senator, and United States Judge
for the Northern District OF Ohio, has
made virtue Of necessity and pre'er'
red resignation to impeachment. That
he would have been impeached before
the Senate for various corrupt practices
WAS an established feet and so
he comes down like Captain SCOTT

same may be said of Judge DELAHAY'

THE opinion in Charleston in relation
to the Public Printing imbroglio seems
to be that the Governor intends neither
TO sue nor subsde. He is endeavorirg
to throw upon the Legislature, where
il does not belong, the respous biIity o.
an act which it is his own duty to do
Having been convinced for more than q
wear past that Mr.. WALKER was de-
trsuding the treasury OF the State, it
was his duty long ago to have institute
ed suit for the recovery OF the sums
wropg'ully abs,racted The pretense
that the special authorization OF
the Legislature is needed for
the institution Of this suit
and that special APPROPRIATION is
needed to pay the expenses OF the prose-
cution. is the merest balderdash in the
world. The annual appropriation for
the expenses of civil aud criminal prose.
cations will cover this, or, if the Gov
ernor has any doubt upon this point
tie Civil Contingent Fund which is en-
tirely at his command and from which
he paid the expenses OF the Peuitentisry
case, could have been drawn upon for
the prosecution of the Public Printer.
He now seems to seek for some
cause to complain of the Legislature
and to throw upon that body the re-
sponsibllity for his own failure to act.
We sincerely hope that the Legislature
will at once spike his gun by giving
him what he asks for but does not real
ly want.

narreied, and the other three seven barreled.
They are silver-mounted and in complete order
and had evidently been there but short Time,
as they were very slightly rusted. How they
came there, or by whom put there, is mystery,
but the supposltion Is that they were thrown
out by some one riding past in the cars. 1t is
