Circumsta ntial Evidence.

The last Jersey City murder, as it has
been called, makes q romantic story. The
body of a man, named James McCann, was
found on the road with two bullet holes in the
head. The police arrested one Frank Wagner
on suspicion of being the murderer. The cir
cumstantial evidence against him was strong.
He had been on the road at the time the pistol
shots were heard. He bore bad character.
He betrayed signs of fear when arrested He
denied having been out, which was proved at
once to be an untruth. He had that night
exhibited pistol at saloon close by the spot
where McCann's body was found. Finally,
the bullet taken from McCann's head fitted
the chambers of the revolver discovered in
Wagner's room. What stronger case could be
made out against a prisoner2 Bnt suddenly
a man comes forward, a harmless and inno-
cent fish dealer, Thomas Brooks BY name, who
tells how McCann met his death. Brooks was
driving into New York for a load of fish, when
McCann sprang into his wagon and attacked
him. Brooks fired at him twice and passed
on, ignorant that he had hit him and thinking
he had jumped from the wagon The mystery
is solved; but if Brooks had not told the
truth, would Wagner have escaped hanging?

The Third Term in tho South.


The Tribune quotes an expressive article from
a Charleston paper in favor of the election of
Grant for third term ''as danger less press
ing than the immediate danger of utter ruin
now threatening the South" This aspiration
the Tribune regards as showing 'that good
many people in the South have been deprived
Of their reason by the long continued wretch
edness of the political situation in most of the
Southern States, and by the seeming impossi-
bility of curing it by any constitutional
means" This is an extreme view. The
Southern feeling in favor Of third term for
Grant is as much the offspring Of desire to
embarrass the government as was the move
ment in favor of secession. Sensible men in
the South must see that no one is more to
blame for the misfortunes Of the South than
Grant. They are part of the record of his
own administration, and he cannot erase it,
If Grant has done nothing for the South in
six years but confirm the wretched rule of the
Caseys, Kelloggs and Moseses, what have wea
right to expect in four more years? The
Southern third term aspirations are unsound.
What the South wants is not third term of
Grant, but one term for some bold, earnest,
manly leader, who will neither whine nor
mourn, but lead the people to full concep-
ton Of the truth that the Southern people
must save themselves, and not by angry
threats against the negroes nor by reviving
the memories of the past, but by patient, reso-
lutte work. The spirit that moved the Con-
federacy is certainly not dead, and the time
has come for it to assert its life.

The SPORTING World IN ENGLAND is in n
turmoil of excitement. The betting booths
at the races are to be put down, and one
owner has been fined ten pounds. The bet
ting men insist that if their calling is unlaw-
ful at all it must be unlawful when followed
by members of the Jockey Club on the Heath
at Newmarket. They have therefore taken
proceedings against Mr.. Henry Chaplin, q
member of Parliament and we'll known turtle,
for betting on the Heath, and if they convict
him they will next proceed against the Duke

away before sudden resolute burst Of mill
tary strength, but it must come again. It
represents the young Spain Of this generation,
and every day it grows stronger This is the
only influence that can antagonize the three
mighty classes that now curse Spain-the no
bility, the standing army and the established
Church. The contest must come between
progress and light on the one side, antiquity,
tradition, privilege and corruption on the
other Our only fear is as to the nature of
the contest The Spanish character is so pecu-
liar that should revolution break forth it would
be more terrible than any seen in France.
The hopes and prayers of all should be that
when it comes it will be peaceful. orderly and
conservative. But it will come, and when its
work is done we may hope to see Spain, with
its noble people and its marvellous history, en-
ter again upon career worthy of the nation
that was civilized member of the Roman
Empire, and in later years was the unques-
toned mistress of the world.

AN INTERESTING INQUIRY. New York
Star makes shrewd observation to the effect
that, while all 'the men interviewed believe
Mr. Beecher innocent, the women are positive
of Mr.. Beechers guilt" The inference is
that men have more faith in mans honesty
than women have in woman's virtue. We
should be sorry to draw this inference. 1t
might be important, perhaps, to inquire into
the character Of the women who have been in
terviewed on this subject, and the question
would then arise, Are they competent to speak
as representatives of the highest and purest
womanhood?

The HERALD's arrangement for . special
Sunday morning train to Saratoga is very. gen.
orally applauded by our contemporaries as o
praiseworthy evidence of enterprise, and some
of them express surprise that journal should
incur an expense for which it cannot hope to
reimburse itself by the sale of papers which
would be purchased just the same if delivered
by the regular trains Newspapers nowadays
cannot pause to reckon the mere direct profits
of an enterprise A journal must expect to
make large outlays for the benefit of the pub
lie if it desires to keep pace with the spirit Of
the age and to establish reputation as a lead
ing newspaper. Expeditions are sent into
the heart of Africa; to accompany
an army to Abyssinia or Khiva; with
a party of explorers to the Arctic
regions; on q dangerous mission within
the insurrectionary lines in Cuba, or on q
similar duty among hostile Indians. The
journal represented by the adventurous cor
respondents does not expect to repay itself
directly for the cost of these expeditions, hut
they are undertaken in order that the public
may have the earliest and most reliable intel
igence of all the great and interesting events
occurring in the world. Steam and electricity
have created an Unsuitable appetite for news
among the people, and o truly great news
paper will seek to satisfy this appetite It's re-
ward comes indirectly in large circulation, in
liberal advertising patronage. in that wide
spread and universal reputation which always
attends intelligent and useful enterprise.
Our special Saratoga train was secured be-
cause We desired to please and accommodate
those of our own citizens who are spending the
summer at Saratoga or elsewhere up the Hud-
son, as well as the people living on that route.
The Sunday HERALD is eagerly sought and is
always an interesting and valuable paper.
New Yorkers are accustomed to read it on
Sunday morning, and its absence from the
breakfast table is always regretted. Under
our special train arrangement they receive
their paper as promptly at Saratoga and inter-
mediate points as if they we're in the city.
We have additional evidence every week that
the enterprise is acceptable to our readers,
and this is sufficient to convince us that il
was wisely undertaken and repays its cost

Bowen and Tilton after paying divine honors
to Reecher, feel that in time they should re-
ceive similar honors themselves? We can we'll
understand how two saints Of their yearning
temperament, impatient of the overmasterng
presence of Beecher. should have united in
sending him blackmailing letter, for which
they could have been indicted. Since Mr.
Beecher received the letter, and, instead of
calling in policeman and delivering his tor
mentors into custody, saw fit to enter into
covenants with them, nothing that has taken
place should at oil surprise u.s. Had he been
innocent he would not have thus fallen.
We are far from encouraging dissensions
among holy people, but Carpenters testimony
shows us that Theodore should not despair Of
career He has destroyed Beecher or rather
Beecher has destroyed himself, unless he ex-
plains his inexplicabe letters. That is one
step, and we find destruction at the begin
ming Of most earnest religions Now let
him found a new faith of his own, o new
church with new doctrines. We do not recon-
mend the special tenets he propounded in his
lHUeSb DlOSIbpnICSh COutIlOutlOu JO religious
literature, and we are afraid that the use of
Demosthenes as spiritual influence, preach
ing to the stars from the top of Murray Hill
house, is at an end But he has genius enough
to make new creed, and he has his saints all
in hand to begin the work of proselyting. 1t
is not often that disciples like Frank Moulton
and Frank Carpenter are vouchsafed to the
founder of new faith. That teacher may we'll
be blessed who has followers as fiery as the
one and as docile as the other to obtain papers

SEQ that the church does not starve for the

room in either fold for Bowen; but he has

Bowen seems to lack is attending saints; but
