CREDIT oBILIRR IN CoURT.-The substance
OF these suits in their present condition before
the United States circuit court for the district
OF Connecticut, as appears In the clerks office
in this city, Is an immense burden of writing
materials consumed in beginning the raid. Ii
would take man Of ordi nary capacity in read
Ing writing, the best part of an honorable life
to peruse all the documents that are now on file
But the whole thing Is very easily simmered
down. There are Ia defendants. Good. About
ninety OF these have moved to dismiss the BILL
because the circuit court of Connecticut has
not jurisdiction. Coco Others answer til at
the bill may be true. It that does not entitIe
the plaintiff to relief i'll = court of equity and
that the bill is multifs ols. Good. Some de-
muir. Good Some dc 5put in an appearance
at all. Good. No fun answer has yet been put
in. Perhaps that isn'r so good, but it is the
fact. Those who answer TO merits say they
bought stock and did not know it was frauiu-
lent. and sold it as they would any stock, and
received no dividends. Some bought one day
and so!id tie next. Evidently the fellows the
government Is after are those who haven't been
heard from in a manLer conspicuous for its de-
tails. The supp0sition of unsuspecting specta-
tors Is that the defenlan who are really liable
are all In the class which is quite numerous and
answer. These motions are probably made,
though separately, with a concert of action.
And the time has been extended to the LIST Of
october. This is the whole story of credi tnao-
bilier, so far as ordinary human intelligence
can grasp the present situation.-Hartford Coar-

returns give only 6l2 idiots in the entire state,

have become matters of daily occurrence. In

REMoRsE-Prof. Isaac g. West, acquitted Of
the murder of Cooch Turner, bat still in Dover
has become, we learn, the victim of a remorse-
full conscience. He is evidently much harsssed
in mind, beyond the insanity which is said to
possess him, and his actions betray an inward
consciousness of the enormity of the offense for
which his life was on trial. We learn from a
gentleman who has visited him in his cell that
he is frequently seen looking at his hands first
on one side and then on the other, as in expect
ing to see blood upon them, and his actions in
other respects raise presumption that remorse
for the murder of Turner is settling down upon
him. During late thunder storm he was
greatly sgitated, and his face the next morning
was one of the most wOe-begone imaginable
He slept but little, and every thunder peal
would start him up as if thousand harpies
were logging his footsteps. His life at best Is
miserable one, but it provokes but little sympa-
