this city have the people bsen roused to such
pitch Of Indignation as has been caused by
the cruel murder Of WuYlAxp at tho hands
Of the drunken gambler, DAVIS, On Thanks
giving Day. 1t was, to all appearances, an
unprovokea, brutal murtlor, by drunken
wretch, and 1t is only miraculous that there
were not other victims to his ungovernab1e
fury. Tbs people, however, caro- very little
vhatherit was provoked or unprovoked. They
viii not scrntinize curioualy the, motive Of
this act. They only know that drunken
gambler has murdered citizen; that there
are other drunken gamblers IN the city; that
there may b mora victims to their yen-
geance and thnt lie Is not safe while these
wreschsa are allowed to 60 unwhipped
Of Justice, and arc protected by The
police, either frum fear or from mo-
hves Of political Interest. They look
upon this local occurrence only as an episode,
and, horrible a. the murder YVES, they will
look beyond it for the responsibility, and
they will not be slow in applying tho cor
reotiTs. They are Aaking to-day but two
questions: Who is responaible7 What shall
be done about It'll
!. Who il Tespona56 for TIE mu7zerf The
City Government Of Chicago il responsible
for it. and HAavxx D. GOWN, az tho head Of
TINT Government, is responsible also. nr.
co1vm, under tho Mayors bill and the new
charter, Ia the actual head Of tho police force,
He has absoluta power. Ha could issue
orders which would sweep tho city clean Of
gamblers and thieves In fortnight. Euper.

Withdrawing his acceptance of the invitation
MIR. Davis writes that in consenting to address

forward the agricultural interests of the Missis
sippi Valley, and particularly to confer with
the Patrons of Husbandry in regard to the
transportation of farm products and the ad-
vancement of trade between the various States

acceptance, as is known, was caused by the pro-
test Of a humber OF persons 10 Winnebago couu-

The last term Of famous English Court,
now to be merged 10 the new High Court of
Judicature, was adjourned the last week in
July with the simple remark by the Master of
the Rolls-"When We meet in November, gen.
tlenen, it will not be 10 the Court of Chan
cery." A more prosaic epitaph, thinks the
London Times was perhaps never read over
any great tribunal. That paper further OBJ
serves that the separate jurisdiction of the
Court Of Chancery now disappears from the
English legal system, and the peculiar forms of
equity procedure will be suppanted by a
method of litigation which will combine, as its
contrivers hope, all the advantages which the
suitor in Chancery and the litigant at common
law obtained from the processes of the two
classes of tribunals"

In monetary affairs there has been very little
