AAmrAnr 10 ha PunIshed.

Stokes the murderer Of Fisk still clamon for &
new trial and expresses hope that If granted one
he will be acquitted. He pretends to be astonish
ed at the verdict rendered against him, and say:
if the city Of New York were laid in ashes in an
hour he could not have been more surprised. But
there seems to be very little chance for his escape
from the sentence imposed. The people are
alarmed at the frequent murders, and desire 10
put stop to such deeds of terror by rigid en-
forcement of the laws which should be done in
all parts of the country. In reference 10 Stokess
case, the N. Y. Times says:
While men fully considered the position Of
Stokes, no one expressed any wish that he might
escape the fate adludged him, for 1t seemed to be
the universal opinion that stern example was
necessary, not only with him but with others yet
untried, in order that human life may be safe IN
the city. Go where you would, the sentiment ex-
pressed was that men must be taught that the
knife and pistol are no longer to be tolerated rs
arguments, and that private hate shall not be per-
mltted to avenge itself by crime. The unan-
unity with which this was expressed proved con-
clusively the public mind had been stirred by the
frequency of murder during the past year.
The World discussing the same awful topic de-
clares
There is no reason perceptible to us for think
ing there will be a trial of Stokes, that he
VIII receive executive mercy, ana therefore he
must be hung by the neck till he is dead. The
punishment will be terrible; but the accused
'hsuld have thought of that before he took the |
life he could not restore
And this is just what every right thinking man
n the county says. Society owes something to
is members, and we are greatly in error if we
ire not approaching new era in the administra-
ion of the criminal Code, nos only in New York,
tut throughout the entire country.

Political corruptIon. .

The condition of Philadelphia must be deplora.
bic indeed, when a journal so decidedly Radical
as the Press deems the of such language as the
following necessary:
"NOt only is our debt increasing enormously,
and taxation becoming oppressive beyond endur-
anee but in all branches OF public service there is
a marked deterioration. The whole Government
with but one or two exceptions, is in the hands Of
a rapacious and scrupulous ring. Our elections
have become farces, and even the courts are pow
eriesS to remedy the evil. Men guilty of the
gravest crimes either stalk the streets with impu.
nifty or administer high public trusts, it having
become, in the language Of the Reform Associa-
ton, notorious that political offenders need not
be 3fraid Of justice, and that the laws are para
lyzel BY those to whose guardianship the sp-
brooches to our courts are intrusted."
Last year was a darker one than any of the city's
history corruption, bribery, and the gravest mis-
dsneanors in Councils and many of the depart
msnts were brought to light; great crime was
deliberately suppressed, and the most lawless and
violent men IN the community shielded from pun
isbment, and the ballot outraged as it never was
Oefore yet none OF the perpetrators, although they
were well known, were arrested or convicted.
OF all the officials elected in 1871 during the
turmoil over tie Tammany frauds. and with 90
much reform eclat only one-Mayor StokeIy has
given evidence 0t a determination to faithfully
perform the duties Of his oftiee, or has kept bis
name clear from scandal The politicians, tie
rOunders, the host of Ring stpendiares have grown
enormously wealthy and powerful and correspon-
dinghy impudent. To-day, through various or
ganizations, they hold the city in virtual submits
sion, debating 10 both parties their candidates,
from the highest municipal officers to the members
Of the Legislature. The old lines of parties no
longer apply among this class. Republican tn ief
and Democratic ruffian are alike banded together

On the calm blue waters of Tsmpico bay,
In tranquil security, war Vessei lay

Still clings to his idol, the god OF the seas;
Weary and worn, yet from his couch on oeck,,
Towindward is seen dark dark omlnous Speck:
The deep's placid bosom now swells from breeze
With zephyrs faint voice as if signing thro trees
As the light ship bounds o er each heaving wave,
feeling of safety to the sailors it gave.
But louder the wind and darker II grew,
Then into q hurricane it suddenly blew.
Fancy now pales for the mind fails to conceive
The o er true picture that nature can give
IT'S almost alone in the tropical cline
That one can indulge in scene SO subhmei
Twas in this storm SO awful and grand
The Neptune went down on Tamplcos strand.
Tho stretched on his couch, his voice was still
heard,
He reckoned not Of danger, for Hooe never feared.
When hope had fed like the last vital spark,
On the mad waves was launched trall bark;
Without rudder's aid in the current wild,
Like feather was bornethi tempest-toss' child.

They near the beach amid the surges' roar.
Consumption threatens, in its CHASTITY form,
But death, relenting like generous foe,
Spares again the hayward, gallant Hooe. A.
No CHOLERA IN BoTEToURT.-Th fact that
a large number of blacks have recently died at
Needmore, nears the Botetourt and Roanoke
line, caused some busy body to report that the
cholera had actually broken out there. Three
physicians held consultation on the subject,
and arrived at the conclusion that it wascaused
from drinking IMPURE, stagnant water-no other
being couvenient-and carelessness In diet.
The white people of the neighborhood held a
meeting last Saturday and urged the blacks to
scatter, as they believed the maladyto beproduc
ed by local causes, which would die out proper
precautions were exercised. Great confusion
existed in the community and many exagger-
ated reports got out and were circulated, among
Others that it was yiruleut and malignant type
Of cholera, and that the green corn they had
eaten had been poisoned; but the true cause
of the disease is the one given by the doctors
the using of impure water and gormandlzing OF
green corn, together with uucleanliness and ut
ter ignorance Of hygienics. At last accounts
the disease was abatiug .-Lynchburg Neaos.
