WARRINGTON, October 20-The trial Of

gan to-day. Whiteley asked postpone
ment OF bis case till next term, which
was denied. Nettlesharp sought o post
poDement to give him time TO produce
ex.SOliciter BonaGld and smother witness
since dead. His request was denied and
his rccognizance declared forfeited. The
court took a recess TO examineth plea OF
Harrington and Williams that the grand
jury that found true bill against Them
was notproperly constituted.
After recess the Assistant Attorney.
General for the Government filed q do.
murrer TO the plea Of abatement Danidge,
Tor Harrington aud Williams, Joined is.
sue. Mr.. Riddle, special Government
counsel, said the same question hsd been
before the court three times, and unless
the court proposed to reverse It's former
decisions, the counsel for the Govern
ment would not argue the case.
Judge Humphreys said he would hear
the argument In support Of the plea, and,
II any new point were presented, he
would then hear from the Government.
Mr. Aeukle read and sustained the plea
Of abatement, and argned that the laws
had not been complied with, and claimed
that citizens could not be legally tried on
indictments found by body not drawn
or selected in strict conformity to law.
Dauidge said he would not trouble the
Court with an argument. He had mere.
ly filed the plea pro tormG for the purpose
OF saving point, aud was willing TO
take the decision Of the Court.
Mr.. Hill suggested that the Court rule
pro JormG on the point, overruliDg the
abatement plea and lot the case proceed.
The counsel might then note an excep-
tion and argue the abatement before q
full bench.
Mr. Danidge consented, but Mr.. Henkle
insisted upon ruling Of the Court upon
the merits of the plea in abatement.
Judge Humphreys said he would
sustain demurrer, but if at any time dur.
ing the trial the Court ehould see that
this Is an erroneous decision, he would re.
verse it. He would not enter the demurrer
till to morrow.
Riddle said that Whitley would be re.
quired 10 give bail in the cum Of $4,000

The Remaininr EIenlIons.

Tho State Of South Carolina will vote
10 day for five Congressman. The next
elections will occur on the I'd and Sd of
November, on which days 90 States in all
will vote. After these elections there
will remain but four States to vote, viz.
New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Con.
necticut and California.
The House of Representatives at Wash.
ington consists Of 2O2 members, and the
present Republican majority is 104. This
majority has been reduced by the loss OF
thirteen members in the States that have
already voted. To wipe out the ma.
jority entirely it is necessary for the De
mocracy to gain So members. Their
present calculations seem 10 be that they
will gain 90 members in the Southern
Ststes, which added to the 13 already
gained will leave them but 10 10 make up.
1t lis just possible that they can overcome
tho present majority against them. Much
depends on New York, Pennsylvania and
Illinois. The vote OF these large States
will go far to settle the contest
But, supposing they should wipe out
the Republican majority in the House, it
will be Of no practical avail Tho Sen.
atc will remain Republican for years to
come. 1t now stands so Republicans, 10
Democrats and Liberals. Before this
majority can be wiped out in the Senate
(where the members hold TOR six years.
the Democracy may be called upon
to go foot again, as has been
the case several times since the war. The
American people have a queer way oI
tipping" suddenly in politics. They
are not in love with the Democracy, but
arc simply willing TO give them trial
resorving the prerogative Of dropping
them quick, once their suspicion OF old
tricks Is aroused.

Presbyterian synod.

CHICAGO, October 20-In the Ptesbv.
terian Synod Of Northern Illinois 10 day,
Mr.. Noyes proceeded with his argument
against the acception OF msjority oil the
report as given yesterday. He coLtended
that It is contrary 10 the law of the
church. There 10 no precedent in favor
OF Proi. Patton, there are preCedents
against him, aud that justice 10 the
accuser OF the accused party lorbids that
he should longer claim the part OF a
prosecutor. he held that as BY the
law of the church that only the sggrieved
party could complain. Patton cannot
BY right appeal. II the prosecutor
had been censured by the Presbytery
then he would have been an aggrieyed
party, and could have appealed from sny
detnitlve sentence, but could not again In.
volVe the defendant, who had been acuuit.
ted. La support OF his point he cited
many cases from the Digest and from the
ecclesiastical law of the Latin, Euglish
and Scottish Churches. In conclusion
Mr.: Noyes asked thstthe report Of the Ju
dlclal Committee DO laid on the table, and
that the prosecutor Withdraw his appeal
Prot. Patten then took the illor and
spoke at length in detail, He said that
he appealed because that was the only
way OF preventing Mr.. Swing from re.
entering the pulpit. He held that Oh
sggrleVed party could appeal, and that
he was an aggrieved party, because un.
less he sustained his case, he was by the
law OF the church an offender and
Slsnderer. Subsequently vote was taken,
when the Synod agreed by respectable
majority to allow an appeal to come be-
lore the body. The frat order for the
session tomorrow is the discussion of the
appeal BY the Synod.

Returning to ,haIr Mutton.

We are glad to see 90 many Of our Re-
publican contemporaries abiuriDg politics
since the late election returns. A smell
or two Of the returns seems to have
wCaned several Of them suddenly from all
appetite for more, aud, In fact, to have
created retching at tho stomach at
the idea OF politics generally. We oh.
serve that they speak Of the re-
results In very general and almost mesgrC
terms, and that their attention Is now
principally engaged in writing up lyceumS,
singing schools, and other winter en-
tertainments. This Is well. The local
news and local interests, such As lyceums,
singing schools, the condition Of the roads,
the state OF the markets, the hard times,
etc., arc always In order, and constitute
the diet upon which editors should feed
freely who have been overslimulsted by
their expectations in the canvass, Not
having suffered ourselves 10 be worked
up unduJy by our hopes Of success In the
late campaign, we do not feel the neces.
Slty Of going back 10 our regular mutton
with so much suddenness. We shall, there.
fore, make slow approaches to the staple
subjects upon which VIC arc wont to dis.
course, We still can brook to contem-
plate the returns. We have morbid
curiosity to sec whether they will not
mitigate somewhat. We dwell OF present
With great composure on the returns from
Iowa. The plains Of Iowa are as the gar.
dens oI Hespetides. We have an impulse
to initiate the example Of the ancient
Atlas aud.go there 1t must be pleasant
to dwell in a land where on light vote
they give $4,000 Republican mSjority,
with several precincts to hear from. There
are no Welzal counties In that region,
where the people sit in darkness, or
else by the light OF q tallow dip
rise up and cast 4S6 majority for
Ban WILSON, in preference TO voting
unanimously for that comely young man
whose name was GoFF before the cleo
ton. Iowa is reliable State. A State
that Notwithstanding the panic, the Civil
Rights bill, the temperance movement,
the Womsn's Rights movement, the Third
term movement, the JAYNR's business,
the sANBoRN contracts, the existence of
BEN BUTLER, and the scourge OF the
grasshoppers, can still give $4,000 Re.
publican mSJority, Is a State to be
depended on midst the wreck of
matter and the crash Of worlds. When
We contemplate that majority, and that
unbroken delegation to Congress, after all
that has happened everywhere else, we
are moved to exclaiu in the language Of
Balaam, the Son OF Beor, "how goodly are
thy tents, o Jacob, and thy tsbernacles o
Israel"

-Chdriest1n Courier.
This Is the greeting Of WALKER, in his
organ, after the election, to those who
take no stock in him and who refused two
years ago TO allow him to select candi-
date Tor Governor.
Perhaps he thinks that the fullness Of
time has now come-that the ring can
nGVer more be broken-that he Is strong
enough TO defy his enemies-that the late
election was verdict In his favor-that
the Independents will hereafter kiss the
rod that now smites them, and for fear Of
failure, OcquiesCo in his dictatorship over
the party.
II this is his present reVengeful sup
position he will be apt TO repeat his mis-
take Of 1872 The Independent movement
was signal success in that year, and can
always be made a similar success when
ever the necessity arises for 1t. Ifthere
was Democratic State Convention in
session to day, which was understood to be
acting under the inspiration and manipu.
lstiou OF Walker and his co.adjutors, itG
nominee could be defeated as easily as in
1879. Such a man as he is cannot subju.
gate the people OF this State. The late elec.
ton is not surrender to him whatever else
1t may mean. The days Of Domitian have
not come, in which "the voice Of the Ro.
