this Indictment.
The case, gentlemen, is of great Importance,
AZ we'll to the community ~ to the prisoner Ut
the bar. The object of the criminal law is not
merely to punish those who violate it. but for the
protection OF society. Its pains and penalties are
therefore held out to others, Is beacons Of warn
ing to deter them from the commission of like
offenses. It is Of course important to the prs-
oner 81 the bar because his life ia involved in
and hangs upon its issue. You hear the evil
dence a. given to you by the witnesses, and
shall endeavor to give you the law applicable to
the case, az clearly and ~ briefly ~ l am able,
and it will then be your duty to apply it to the
evidence, and upon the law as you will hear il
from the Court and evidence - given te
you by the witnesses, and otherwise.
AND thus determine the guilt or innocence OF the
prisoner at the bar without considering what
may be the consequence to him, your duty being
simply TO find the fact Of guilt or innocence.
The Attorney General then re-stated the evil
dsnce, tracing the Journey Of the two men from
their meeting Ut Newark to the arrest Of the
prisoner in Ohio and continued Gentleman,

The Insane Hospital.

The editor of the Waterloo Cour-
Ter, whose severe, almost savage,
but pfobably not entirely unjust an
imadversions upon the management
Of some of our State institutions has
attracted some attention, two weeks
since visited and inspected the In
dependence Insane Hospital. In his
paper of last week he gives his
readers the results Of his observa
tons, embodied in the paragraph
which we copy below. Coming
from a critic whose lance is usually
in rest, and who is SO Intelligent
withal, it may be taken as a high
compliment to the management of
the institution, and the integrity,
good Judgment, and good faith
which has marked the expendi
lures of the appropriations for its
constructions:
'The utmost cleanliness is obser-
vablc on every hand, and every
where there are evidences Of the
most humane care for the unfortu-
nate inmates of the Asylum. We
have never visited any public insti-
tuition SO perfect in its construction,
SO well and philosophically adapted
to its purposes, so thorough in man
agement, as this Asylum Tor the In
sane at Independence. And it is
the sincere judgment of everybody
at all conversent with the execution
Of the work Of construction, that
every dollar OF the cost has been
well, economically and honestly ex-
pended. No faint Of a mis- used dol
lar attaches to this project, nor do
we believe there ever will be while
such honorable gentlemen as G.. w.
Bemis, K. G. Morgan, DR.. House
and Muturin l.. Fisher serve as
trustees. -Four hundred and ninety
thousand dollars has already been
expended, and it is estimated that
about three hundred thousand more
will be required to complete it.
When done it will, without u doubt,
be the most perfect structure Of the
kind in the Union. We came away
feeling much pride in the institu-
ton, and even more in the manage
mcnt, from trustees and superinten-
dent down to inferior employees.

cate the wisdom of that policy which
has permitted him to regain his
seat upon this floor. -
To the diatribe of tho gentleman
from Virginia (A[r Harris), who
spoke on yesterday, and who 50 far
transcribed the limits Of decency
and propriety as to announce upon
this floor that his remarks were adj
dressed to white men only, | shall
have no word of reply. Let him
feel that a negro was not only too
magnanimous to sinite him in his
weakness, but was even charitable
enough to grant him the mercy Of
his silence. Laughter and applause
on the floor and in the galleries. l
shall, sir, leave to others less chart
table the uncnvlablc and fatigueing
task of sitting out of that mass Of
chatf the few grains of sense that
may, perchance, deserve notice. AS
surfing the gentleman that the negro
in this country aims at a higher de-
gree Of intellect than that exhibit
ed by him in this debate, l cheer
fully commend him to the commits
Grafton of all intelligent men the
world over-black men as we'll as
white men.

THE House Of Representatives on

THE House Of Representatives on
Monday put an effectual quietus up
on Secretary Richardson's PROPOSE
ton to increase taxation, by the
adoption by 22l yeas to nays, of
a resolution offered by Holman, Of
Indiana, declaring it the sense Of
the House that there is no necessity
for an increase of taxation, or an
increase of the public debt by fur
Their loan, if there shall be economy
in public expenditures; further de-
claring that the House will reduce
the appropriations to the lowest
point consistent with the proper
administration of public affairs.
The same day another resolution
was adopted by the House without
division, taking strong ground
against any increase of debt and
taxes in any event, and declaring
existing taxes sufficient to meet the
economical expenditures of the gov.
eminent. This is-sound and good
doctrine, and the unanimity with
which it was endorsed by the House
indicates that the people have been
heard from.

Cheap Trausporta ton in Congress.

The subject of cheap transporta.
ton for the products of the great
west to the seaboard, is claiming
the attention Of Congress, and some
of the western members are earnest
ly discussing the different projects
advanced for the accomplishment of
the end. Among these is our own
member of the House, Mr.. D"nnan,
who presided at a meeting of Rep
resentatives having this subject un-
der consideration, at Washington
on the 10th inst. On that occasion
Mr.. Hurlbut, of Illinois, a member
of the committee ON railroads, made
statement Of the propositions be-
fore the committee.
He said there were before that
committee projects involving an ex-
penditure of sl30,OOO,0OO, and all
had their friends. He said he favored
the Fort Saint Philip canal, improve
ment of the great lakes-means OF
aiding navigation to the great sea.
He mentioned points of various 9TH
err schemes, and enlarged upon the
suffering in the west from monop-
olies in the carrying trade. Refer.
ring to proposed bills providing for
a board to regulate and reduce
railroad freights, he expressed the
opinion that the Committee would
endorse the bill and report it next
week, and he was satisfied that Con-
gress had the power to do this I'M
der the power to regulate interstate
commerce. He also expressed him
self in favor of freight railroad
from the Mississippi river to New
York, and recounted the advan-
tages it would give both to the
western shipper and the eastern
consumer. A proposition to con-
struct a double track road from
some point on the Hudson River to
Council Bluffs, with branches to St.
Louis and Chicago, had been made,
but the projectors require the Uni
ted States to guarantee the payment
of the interest on certain of their
bonds. He hoped in the course of
a week to prepare bill embodying
in it a pledge Of credit Of the Uni
ted States, with such guards and
guarantees as would prevent the oc-
currence of such impositions by
railroads as those to which they
were now subject.
Other members expressed them
selves willing to favor any feasible
plan for cheapening transportation,
and relieving producers from the
heavy burdens imposed by monopo-
lies, after which the meeting ad-
journed for two weeks, when the
Committee on Railroads will have
a bill for consideration.
