CHILD MURDER.
The Body Of an Infant FOund-ItS Mother
Arrested.

Yesterday, colored woman named NIilly
Wash was locked up in the Seventh Precinct
Station, CarrolltOn, on warrant issued on the
affidavit of Mrs. johnson, charging her with
the murder of her infant child.
On examination of the premises in which
the woman Wash lived,
THE BODY
of the child was found concealed in the yard
under a lot of weeds, wrapped in several old
articles of wearing apparel.
No particulars Of the affair have yet been
elected. but
THE FACTS
in the case will no doubt be brought out to-
day. as Coroner Gaudet proposes to hold an
inquest, at which a post mortem examination
OF the body will be made, and the cause Of
death aScertained

the clerk, and had no more legal effect than an
order issued by any private citizen.
But b "a the court been in session, had the
order been accompanied with all due tormali-
ties, none the less would it have remained that
it was an order without jurisdiction, and with
out color or authority Of law that it was an
attempt by Federal judge to usurp the con-
troll and power OF sovereign State, and to
usurp it at time the most critical and dan
gerous. Such action, from whatever motive,
is at variance with every principle of good
government, is calculated to confound and
subvert the distinctions between the State and
Federal Governments, and to overthrow the
Constitution itself, without which neither
Judge Durell, nor any other Judge, has any
righttul authority whatever.
If conduct so dangerous, so fragrant, SO I'M
authorized, SO wholly without color Of right,
and followed by such serious consequences
do not constitute a high crime and misde-
meanor, for which the judge guilty thereof
should be arraigned and tried, it seems to us
that no conduct can. The respect for the jul
dicial Office and the sacred character of judi
cial authority throughout this nation, make it
more essential that such usurpations should
be rebuked, and such outrages and unwar-
anted assumptions of power brought to con-
dign punishment.

our great national water way. 1t also approves

THE LATE MURDER.

New YORK, July AFTER the discharge of the
jury in the Gill murder and the tender by the
prisoners counsel Of plea of guilty of murder
in the second degree, Recorder Hackett re-
marked he never heard of case where the ele-
ments Of reconciliation and deliberation were
more clearly shown than in the case of Gill. They
were fearfully and horribly mutilated, but he
must concede that sympathy which is normal in
every properly constituted man had been touched
in the MINDS Of the jury, hence they would not
convict under the laws of this State
1t was made necessary to prove the delibera-
ton and Fermentation before the verdict OF
murder could be reached. In this case, accord
ing to his mind this had been done, yet there
was no verdict. It was conclusive to him that
under the present laws hanging for murder was
played out, to use slang term, and it would be
useless hereafter to look for verdiets of murder
in the first degree. He had, under the circum-
stances, no objection to the acceptance Of the plea
Of second degree.

THE SEIZURE OF THE
BULLETINS FORMS.
THE GRAND JURY MOVES.
Lynch, Bechtel and HOulihan Indicted for
Highway Robbery, and Badger and
Flanagan as Accessories.

Slowly but surely the inexoable fingers OF
fate are closing upon the thieves who, without
warrant of law, and in plain and audacious
defiance Of every principle Of right and JUS
tice, laid in wait near our Office, and after
midnight crept out from their hiding places,
and overpowering the few gentlemen who
acted as an escort, stole the forms of the Bull
LEr1N as they were on their way to the press
room.
The Grand Jury has, after looking into the
matter carefully, presented true bills against
Policemen Lynch and Bechtel and Houlihan,
for highacay robbery, and against Superintend-
ent Of Police Badger and Captain Of Police
Flanagan as accessories before the fact
Deputy Sheriff Emile Hilborn yesterday
succeeded in arresting the three principals
and lodged them safely in the Parish Prison,
from which, however, the two policemen
emerged upon giving bail in the sum Of $500
each. Houlihan, up to last accounts, had not
given bail, and must, therefore, have rested
in that pleasant abode throughout the night.
No doubt the high officials who are charged
with being accessories before the fact, and who
are equally guilty with those plant tools, the
principals, were treated with more considera-
ton, and have been spared the humiliation Of
a nights lodging in the Hotel Fremaux.
The BULLETIN regards this action of the
Grand Jury as vindication OF the charges
made by us against the men who were engaged
in the infamous business Precisely what the
BULLETIN claimed and what was asserted by
every respectable paper throughout the coun-
try, the Grand Jury has now proclaimed to be
true, and we leave those journals in this city
who attempted to palliate the outrage to digest
that fact at their leisure
What we hope for in this matter is not SO
much the conviction and punishment of the
miserable tools and pawns, as the detection
and punishment of the men who employed
them. We have known from the first that
the seizure of our forms was but the initial
step in a deep-laid scheme for the suppress
sion of the BULLETIN, and while it may be
difficult to prove exactly who composed the
ring of wealthy rascals" in whose brains the
scheme originated, we have every confidence
that some of them will be discovered and the
whole plot disclosed.

A LIBEL ON LOUISIANA.

The following is an extract from an editorial
in Wednesday mornings Republican
It is barely possible that there are parties in
this city who contemplate the commission Of
crime, and wish, in order to be perfectly safe,
to have an old time jury conveniently at hand
to fall back upon. More rogues have been
shielded from the halter or the penitentiary
by Louisiana juries than were ever punished
by them.
The editor sneers at "the old time Jury Of
Louisiana. There is no excuse or justification
for such a sneer The "old time juries Of
Louisiana performed their duty firmly and
faithfully honestly, Independently and Justly.
Their action will bear honorable comparison
with that Of the old time juries Of any other
State in the Union.
The assertion that more rogues have been
shielded from the halter or the penitentiary
by Louisiana juries than were ever punished
by them, is libel; the object Of which is to
pull down in public estimation the old, the
stable and present conservative population Of
Louisiana, and to exalt and secure military
support for the new, the composite, mongrel
party of the usurper.
The complaint made Of late years against
juries in this State owes its origin and con-
tinuance to the new element of our popula-
tion-to the unprincipled carpet-baggers and
the ignorant emancipated negroes who are
qualified jurors among us, and who together
form the tynnts party now dominant in
Louisiana.
The article continues:
An innocent man has no fears for any sort
Of jury, as be is not very likely to be called
upon to confront one, and We decline most
respectfully to let law-breakers have anything
to say about the selection of their judges.
1--WE decline most respectfully to let law
breakers have anything to say about the Sc
lection of their judges" Law-breakers the
accused-shall have nothing to say about the
selection of their judges! What say you to
this, Senator Morton2 The right of chal-
lenge in jury cases to be taken away from the
accused in Louisiana! Is this American law !?
Is this Repubicanism It is time for you,
Gr, to see things here in a proper light.
You were shocked the other day at the deceit
full course of Kellogg about the election bills.
What do You think, now, Of the doctrine Of
his party for jury trial
If it be pretended that "the selection of
their judges refers to the drawing Of the
names of jurors to form panel, then it is still
clear in American constitutional and statute
law that the accused has personal right and
interest to say something about such drawing
in other words, to protect himself against the
partisan and hostile action of tyrannical
faction.

PARIS.
PARIS July 2.-The sub committee of the
Committee of Thirty have drawn up q new
constitutional bill; the measure provides for
the continuance of the title of President
of the Republic, for the creation of a
second Chamber, for the organization of a
purely personal septenale which is to terminate
with the expiration of President MacMahon's
seven years term, or sooner, in case of his death
or resignation.
No provision is made for successor to the
President and it is thought that the object of the
omission is to have an opportunity for the resto-
ration OF the monarchy, which may be possible
when the Septenate ceases.
