THE TILroN-BEEcHERc CASE GONE TO THE

L
In speaking last week Of Beeeh's address to
| the jury neglected to speak of his abuse of
Mrs Beecher for her fidelity to her usband and
Constant attendance at court. He was go abusive
that even the press opposed to Beecher could not
approve of it.
Beech closed his address to the jury Wednesday
afternoon of last week and Immediately applied
the court to open the case tor testimony.
Beecher's attorneys saying they had nothing TO
say on the subject. Judge Nelson said he would
take the papers and give his decision next morn
ing. Beech had no charges to ask. Eyarts asked
fifty-fye which were read.
On Thursday the Court decided against the ap-
plcatiOn % open the case for new fes.lmony and
Beech asked that the papers be filed. Judge Neil
son then read his charge which of moderate
leng land was admitted by tEe attorneys on boil
sides to be satisfactory
Officers Spaulding, Doyle and Glare were sworn
TO take charge of the jury, who by direction of
the Judge retired in charge of the officers. The
jury being provided with dinner ate very lesulely
aid IL was 2:15 when they were done ana retired
to their room for deliberation. The fist heard
from the jury was their asking for judges charge
in relation to Mrs Moulton's testimony, which
was refused, as Evarts would not consent to have
the charge given by the judge unless accompan-
led by his charge given asked and Beech
would not consent TO this. The last heard was
their sending on Tuesday morning for the testi-
mony OF Beecher and Moulton, which was fur
nished
Nothing certain is known of the deliberations
Of the jury outside OF the jury room. There arc
current reports that the jury stand eight, or Nue.
or eleven.for Beecher. The general opinion seems
to be that the jury will not agree, BHt as the
jury continue 10 deliberate there is still posi-
bility. perhaps even probability, that they will
agree. Judge Nelson will not discharge them
till they agree, report that 1t is Impossible for
them to ayr ee. And az they have not reported

Closing Exercises of the High
School.

A report of the closing exercises
of the High School last Friday APP
pears In another place in this paper.
We were present part of the after
noon and were pleased with the ex-
ercises. At the close Of the school
exercises the Principal, Mr.. Bannan,
called on several gentlemen for
speech of five minutes each. Sit
ting beside Mr.. Bannan and as Rev.
FL. M. Simmons, City Superintend-
emf, was closing his and the closing
speech, we wrote the following note
and handed it to Mr.. Bsnnan and
asked him to read it to the school
81 will make my speech through
the TELEGRAPH, and it will be on a
subject on which none of the pres
ent speakers have spoken" Our
name was subscribed to this note.
Mr.. BaDnan said he would rather
we would say there what we had to
say. But believing and saying that
the school had been detained too
long already we declined 10 do so.
Mr.. Bannan then said TO the audi
ence that one gentleman said, as the
school had been detained too long
already, he would make>his remarks
through bis Journal.
The subject to which we referred
was the moral status CT the scholars
attending our schools the danger
Of some of them becoming immoral,
vicious and criminal and the best
means of securing their freedom
through life from immortality, vice
and crime. 1t is we'll known, even
to demonstration that scholars can
receive high intellectual education
IN our schools. Blu: it Is not well
known and has never been demon
strated that scholars can receive a
high moral education In our schools.
1t is pleasing thought on examln-
alton and graduation occasions that
scholars and graduates will contin-
Tie to advance In knowledge and inn
prove in goodness. But it is sad
thought that any may depart from,
goodness and become immoral, VIC
ious and criminal. That some edu-,
Gated in our schools have thus de-
parted is not unknown to cur people.
That others may thus depart is not
among the impossibilities and per-
haps even probabilities There are
so many Influences outside of our
public free schools and other educa-
tional institutions to entice our youth
from morality, goodness and virtue
into immortality, vice and crime,
that all the safeguards which can
be devised and called into use by the
most intelligent and philanthropic
Of our people, as we'll as by schools
and parents, are necessary to secure
tteir safety. The subject we deem
one Of great importance and believe
it should receive more deeply the at
tention OF parents and teachers and
all having the management of our
schools ard educational institutions.
With these remarks we leave the
subject for. the present, hoping it
may receive attention and considera-
ton equal to its importance.

UNSCLENTIFIC CRITICS.

The average American citizen has COM
Portable opinion of his own ability, but there
are certain branches of art about which he is
cautious of expressing a public judgment. Ii
he has no taste for literature, he will not give
you a verdict on Tennyson's latest poem or
Emerson's new volume of essays. If he is ignOr
ant about painting, he will not write to the news
papers his impressions of Michael Angelo or
his candid estimate of Bierstadt. But when
there is a question of music all his modesty
and good sense disappear. Upon that subject
he will discourse you with an eflrontery that
is almost sublime and if he knows nothing
about it he is rather inclined to boast OF
his ignorance, and fancy that it gives
him a special claim to be heard In this alone
of all the arts he bows to no authority and
recognizes the need of no technical knowledge.
He will balance Beethoven and Dan Bryant,
"Lohengrinn and "La Grande Duchesse,"
with all the composure Of Jove; and after
remarkng that he is entirely unacquainted
with the rudiments of the art and does not
claim any sort of musical cultivation, he will
lay down the law for managers and perform
ers, or dismiss the verdict of generations with
a snap of his fingers.
Who has not seen q score of such letters az
the one which begins as follows in a Hartford
paper7 "The writer of this effusion makes no
"pretenson TO having a scientific taste or a
"critlcal ear for music, not even to an ac-
"quaintance with the regulation parlance
requisite to write with propriety on the sub
eject. His desire is simply to give some
"candid, unscientific, and perhaps home
"brewed notions as to what kind of music
"suits this market best, or at any rate his
"crude musical palate" And then, having
demonstrated the entire worthlessness of
his opinion, he proceeds to give it
with considerable vehemence, and with
out glimmering suspicion that he
can possibly be saying anything foolish. He
cannot understand why people should crowd
the Thomas concerts to listen to "a stereo-
typed sameness of colicky, inharmonious and
chair pulling diScords,D but he is satisfied that
they cannot possibly like what Thomas
offers them, because it does not suit "his
"own crude musical palate; !" and he is con-
vinced that Thomas will soon play to empty
benches if he does not "give us more har-
"mony, melody, and music now and then
after the American idea'-whatever that
may be.
The avidity with which people who are sensi-
bic enough on other topics will seek for opp0r-
tunities to be absurd ON tho one subject Of
music is curious phenomenon. This Hartford
gentleman would no doubt laugh at man
who being entirely ignorant alike Of seaman
ship, naval architecture, steam engineer
ing. and ordnance, should write for

THE pKOSTRAT SfdTR.

The election by. the South Carolina Legisla-
ture of ex-GoV. Moses and "Gen." Wmpper
as Circuit Judges has been pronounced by
Gov. Chamberlain of that State, who is GER
tainly in a position to know something of the
character and qualifications of the men, "a
"horrible disaster "The calamity" he con-
tinucs, els infinitely greater, in my judgment,
ethan any which has yet fallen on this State,
cor, might add, on any part of the South
This is very strong language; but 1t comes
from Governor who was elected by the party
which controls the Legislature, and which elected
to the bench the two persons named. 1t comes
from an influential Republican leader, who
since his election as Governor has shown an
earnest spirit of reform, and has gained the
confidence of the best people i'll the State, and
who. after making the above statements, pro-
ceeded to say as enunciating his own polcy,
Z" | am free to say that my highest ambition
" as Governor has been to make the ascendency
"of the Republican party in South Carolina
" compatible with the attainment and MAIN
:" tcnance of as high and pure q tone In the
" administration of public affairs as can be
"exhibited in the prOudest Democratic
:" State of the South and it was also my fond
"est hope, by peaceful agencies here in South
"Carolina, of all the Southern States, to have
"worked out through the Republican party
"the solution of the most difficult and one of
"the most interesting political and social
"problems which this century has presented"
Very obviously his opposition to these men is
not partisan. The intelligent portion OF the
press and people agree with him that the
election of such men as judges is " hor-
"rible disaster" Public opinion approaches
unanimity upon the subject Moses is
known somewhat extensively through the
country by the unparalleled infamies of his
administration as Executive, and Whip
per i, described as colOred man who when
member of the Legislature on small salary
accumulated q fortune and gambled it away
in night O nOtOriOusly bad negro who is
charged with embezzlement of public funds.
and who has neither honesty. capacity, nor
any other qualification for a judicial office.
Well may Gov. Chamberlain pronounce the
action which puts the lives persons, and
property of citizens in such hands "horrible
disaster" and well may the citizens take
alarm at such situation. Ii there was ever
a spectacle to excite pity, the condition Of
South Carolina seems such one.
And yet it seems only another case of
"What are you going to do about it Y" The
ignorant and venal legislators who chose these
Judges have the numbers and the power.
They sell their votes almost in open market
to men who seek the official places where they
can have property owners at their mercy and
punder them at will. The upper and the
neither millstones 90 round and do not stop /;
the grists are ground; the ignorant masses get
the smallest tolls; the managing scoundrels
carry of the bulk of tho plunder, and the help
less tax payers have no redress. And 20 long
as this dense mass of ignorance and prejudice.

could control majority Of votersi Probably
only third-term organ-grinders will deny that
the opposition to the reelection OF Grant Is
stronger in the Republican party now than 1t
was before the elections of 1874 Hardly any
sane man will doubt that the Presidents
patronage influenced some members to
vote against the resolution who are not
really in favor of Grants reelection. But, even
with this influence only eighteen members
were rallied, in House elected year ago, to
favor O third term. Is it not safe to say that
the people are almost unanimous in opposition
to it
Such Democrats as care much for the sue
cess of party and not at oil for the good OF
the country may desire the nomination OF
Grant by the Republicans. There are some
individuals who, for selfish reasons, will work
for his nomination. But every sensible leader
or manager of the party knows that Grant, II
nominated, would be terribly beaten. The
vote of the House is significant in that re-
spect, and the third term business may as well
be regarded as settled.
