The Prssident's Message.

have been able to devote TO the consid-
eration OF the Message Of President
sirant before ws can judge Of the whole
ST the document Some Of the recommen-
iations may deserve approval; although
the manner OF reaching the object aimed
TO be accomplished may not be such as
would be approved By a wiser and bet

But we have never known a message

From the Evening Telegraph. RepJ
A few days ago we had occasion to re.
fer to case in this city which Illustrated
the glorious uncertainties of our system
Of trial by jury, and now in the case Of
the people in Washington accused OF an
infamous conspiracy to fasten an ,Nccusa-
tion OF burglary upon an innocent man,
we have still more startling demonstra-
ton, if not Of the defects of the jury
system, at least Of the laws under which
juries are drawn and jury trials are held.
AT the trial recently held the accused
escaped condemnation through disa-
greement of the jury in the face OF evil
dence that most persons who had no in
terest in the matter except to see JUS
tice done thought sufficiently explicit,
and now it is stated that they will es-
cape altogether through a decision Of
the Court in banc that the Grand Jury
which indicted the conspirators was
illegally drawn. A very serious question
now comes up, as to whether this par.
ticular Grand Jury was not made up in
an illegal manner Intentionally. One Of
the men indicted by it was the Assistant
District Attorney. and those most inter
terestcd in the success OF the conspilu.

Meeting of COngre-s--Recep OF
the Presidents Message.
WASHINGTON, Dec. :,


Without, excitement or confusion,
Congress met and went quietly to work
to-day. There was full attendance
in both houses, and the galleries were
crowded with visitors. There was
considerable interest manifested in the
Presidents Message, although its con
tents were generally known. There
were some who last week thought that
the President would take counsel of
the recent elections, and make some
concessions to the demand for some in.
crease of currency, and favor some OF
the internal improvement schemes, Ell
ther by direct or indirect sid from the
government. These were all doomed
to disappointment, and although the
fact that he is for specie resumption at
| once is gratifying TO the hard money
men in both houses, who are mainly
Democrats, very few agree with him
as to the means Of bringing it about.
| by anyone to aid in rallying the brok-
en- column of the Republican party it
was complete failure. His specie
policy will be ignored in both houses,
and the probability is that nothing will
be done with the Currency question
this session, and time will be wasted
as it was last winter, in fruitless en-
deavors to harmonize conflicting views
in both parties. There will, however
be q bill introduced, and pressed al
once, TO repeal the provision of the
last Bank bill requiring national banks
to redeem their notes at the Treasury
here. All the small country bank!
are opposed to it, and are demanding
its repeal 1t proves to be serious
