The trial of p. p. Wintermute.
for the killing of Gen McCook at
Yankton, Dakotah, has been in pro-
gress two weeks, and will probably
last some time longer. The testi-
mony, as given in our exchanges, is
too lengthy for publication in the
TINES as we desired, many Of our
people knowing Mr.. Wintermute,
and feeling an interest in the mat
ter. Able counsel is employed on
both sides. Some very conflicting
statements are made by witnesses,
as 10 the commencement of hostili-
ties between McCook and Winter
mute, and as to the shooting afiray.
We give below what the st. Paul
Press of 28th says:
The most important testimony on
Saturday was that of English Pete,
which was to the effect that Nc
Cook had a pistol in his hands with
which he fired at Wintermute, be-
fore Wintermute fired at him, and
that he fired several shots at Nc
Cook, one of which went through
Pete's hand. The reliability of this
witness testimony is the subject of
note from a leading citizen of
Yankton, which will be found else
where in our columns. Several
other witnesses testified to McCook' S
violent handling Of Wintermute, and
the way McCook pounded him with
his fist before the meeting. This
testimony is important in connec-
ton with that Of number of physi-
clans, who testified on Monday, that
In consequence of the violent blows
which Wintermute received on the
head at the hands Of McCook, he
was suffering, just after the tragedy
at the meeting, and theoretically at
that time also-trom the mental ef-
tects of a severe conclusion of the
brain. The drift of the testimony
on Monday is to show the partial
insanity or abnormal cerebral ex-
element Of Wintermute, in conse-
quence of the severe blows on the
head which he had received from
McCook. A careful reading OF the
testimony in these two days devel-
ops pretty clearly the line of defense
which Wintermute's counsel have
adopted.

South CARoLDA.-The.B 4 osuse Of
South CAROLINA is;aitracting is attention
everywhere. aud it is not impossible
that hsr condition will be amSIiofAfed,
very soon, by outside pressure brought
to bear upon that clement of power

Louis Republican says 'ono word from
President Grant will work the deliver
ancs Of South Carolina. One word
from him freed Arkansas from the
whole regime Of scoundrels who had
fastened their beaks in her vitals,
changed anarchy into peace. snbsti-
tuted liberty for oppression, and
turned disaffection iuto contentment.
Why has it never occurred to the Pre-
sident to use the public patronage for
the relief OF South Carolina? Why
has it never occurred to the New York
Times to advise it? If it were whis.
pered throughout the State that Presi-
dent Grant had Withdrawn his oouute-
nance from the local Republican party
which supports Gov. Moses and his
accomplices, and if the rumor were
confirmed by the peremptory dis.
missal OF dozen Republican Office
holders and tue appointment of us
many non. Republicans in their places,
the work would bo begun and ended
at the same time. Moses and bis con-
federate thieves and robbers would
quail before the unexpected frown of

to the ground in day, as did the
whole fabric of Arkansas yillainy. in

As Ne progressed farther toward the
centre OF Europe We observed that fe-
male degradation became more and
more marked. In Brussels and Go.
logne we had seen few females at
work, street sweeping, or performing
some light manual labor, but here we
found them engaged in all the more
COARSE and groveling kinds of work,
from carrying bricks and mortar to the
top Of two-story buildings, to driving
scavenger carts and cleaning ont
sewers. Females were at work in the
fields reaping and moving, and load.
ing wagons with hay or grain. some
we're ploughing and others hoeing,
while there were no idlers to be seen
of either sex.
We were not little puzzled with
geographical names at almost every
place along our route. The text books
of our school.boy days had been of
little actual value, since we we're una.
bic to find any of the places with
which we had been familiar. Antwerp
was Anvers, Cologne was Koln, May
ence. Mainz and Munich went under
the musical cognomen of Minchen.
Tho people know these places by no
other name. so that when an American,
unaware Of the defect in his geogra-
ply, asks for prominent place as he
has been taught its name from his
youth, no one oan tell him the least
about it. We asked for Vienna, but
no one knew the Austrian capital by
that name.
