OFFICIAL MURDERs.-A few Gays ago an old
man who was intoxicated was arrested in Phila.
delphia and pushed into a cell where he was rel
upon and his throat cut. The officers paid no
attention to his cries. We have referred TO the
case already. The New York Express, also calls
attention to the horrors of Philadelphia city
prisons. II says:
Again our Philadelphia exchanges record the
occurrence Of muTderous assault in a station
house. The custcm of locking up several drunken
men in the same cell is much to be deprecated,
and this probably fatal occurrence should lead to
a reform in this respect, Drunken persons,
when returning TO sobriety, are almost always
quarrelsome, and they should not be afforded ON
opportunity OF quarreling With any but them
selves. An immense amount Of money has been
spent upon the Quaker City station houses, and
If there is not sufficient accommodation to war
rant the introduction Of this reform, there ought
to be, and II certainly might be made at compare

The great United States is shouting over the
glorious triumph of its arms in the capture Of
Captain Jack, the Modoc Chief The poor wretch
had been deserted by his hest warriors, half

he would have revelled in his bloody work several
months longer. The credit Of his capture is

ng the trail of the wiley savage. In the cap
ture, however we fear an elephant has fallen on
the hands OF Gen. Davis. The chief ought to be
hung or shot for the murder OF Candy and
Thomas and the murder of numerous settlers
ought to be aloned for. No doubt the Com
mander will hesitate 10 have these Indians shot.
But the safety OF the settlers demand that a
warning be given the tribes, and they be made to
know that in taking up the tomahawk against
the whites they will call down on themselves all
the punishments that precede determination.
