gresSionSl salaries, and putting them
back to where they stood last March viz
5000 per year, and In addition exclu-
ding milege for the present Congress
This sort Of repeal looks more like bus.
InsSS than the bill that passed the House
the other day, and will go back to that
body for adoption in lieu Of their own.
We doubt not that the House will adopt
it, not OF course Of its own free will, but
because Of the power Of public opinion,
the same power that has operated upon
the Senate not only in this matter but In

THE Moundsville National has de-
liVered itselfon the Civil Rights Bill now
under discussion in Congress. A copy oI
its remarks ought to be the hands Of every
member Of the two Houses. Here Is Id
opinion: %
1.-THE black member, Elliott, from South
Carolina, has been ventilating his rhetoric
Of late, on the condition Of the colored
race. BE holds that It should not be
denied admission into the railroad OF
street cars, nor from the berths and
tables OF steamboats, and hotels. nor
paIticipationlin every other particular All
now INDUCED In BY the whites and NOT 4
settled habit with the blacks. Il Is our
opinion that the black race Is not peremp
torilY kept out Of such places, but Is en-
titled to all such privileges already, and
this complaint is not very sound undel
the circumstances. The colored race d
getting along great deal faster now thar
tne common whites; indeed, quite a. fasI
ss It Ia capable Of comprehending or un'
derstAnding."4 =

OUR readers are familiar with the case
OF BRIcELAND, the man who murdered
AILINeHAM near Eldersville, Washing.
ton county, Pa, q year or so ago. He
killed his victim BY means OF an impro.
Vised cannon made Of gas pipe and rid
died him with slugs while in bed. He Was
arrested, tried, convicted of murder in the
first degree, escaped, was re.arrested, and
then appealed to the Supreme Court for
an arrest OF judgment and q new trial.
The opinion Of the Court was delivered
by the Chief Justice, and one of the points
Is as follows: "The only serious error
alleged In this trial Is the continuation Of
the trial of the prisoner alter the expira-
ton Of the Court of Oyer and Terminer.
The jury received their charge on the last
day OF the term-Saturday-And being
unable TO agree, did not deliver their yer.
dict until the following Tuesday. It Is
argued that, though the trial was contin.
ued without intermission from the 18th
Of February, and the testimony closed
only on Saturday, the Isl Of March, the
end OF the term should have ended the
trial without q verdict. Ifthis be 90, an
extraordinary legal commission has ex.
isted from the foundation OF the State,
for doubtless many murder trials have
outlasted the fixed terms Of the courts,
which, in many countries have been fora
single week. The argument rests on the
want Of an express statute 10 prolong the
term, In such case Of necessity, and on
the fact that such provision exists in
reference to the quarter sessions. But
the organization and power OF these courts
do not stand on q precisely similar foot
ing, and the argument from analogy has
no real bearing.
Judge Agnew then goes on to cite q
number Of authorities bearing on the
point atiasue, and says:
ave are Of opinion, therefore, that the
Jurisdiction Of the Court of Oyer and Ter.
miner In the case before uS did not end
with the term, but continued by the ad-
journment from day TO day until the trial
closed and the verdict was delivered,
and, If necessary, sentence passed"
