A rather grOtesdue difficulty in the appica-
ton of parliamentary institutions to regcner-
ated Italy il graphically described in the let
Ter of our Roman correspondent, Mr. I. Adolf
pIuq Troopc, which we print this morning.
The most excellent bills are regularly intro
duced into the Chamber Of Deputies and start
of with every prospect OF success hut no plan
has yet been invented that will keep the hon
orblc gentlemen up TO their work, so that
day after day business is blocked for lack of
a quorum. At last the dog days come. and
then ono earthly consideration can induce the
"skclcion rump of the Chamber to remain in
"sessi6n any longer" The choice of Rome as
the seat of government. whatever is to be
said of it from q patriotic and sentimental
point of view, certainly has Some practical dis
advantages.
A deep interest is felt in the United States,
in the issue of the political and religious cx-
pcrimenis now trying in the Italian kingdom,
and our readers will be glad TO learn that we
have secured so accomplished q correspondent
as Mr.. Trollope to describe them in the col
umns Of The TRIBUNE. Mr.. TrOllope has ac-
CURED by long residence in Italy, close study
of her history and her people, acquaintance
with her leading men, and sympathy Win
Italian thinkers, poets, and artists, peculiar
qualification for such task. OF this he has
already given ample proof in books which
have become standards and having written
good books, it was only natural, in these days
when journalism appropriates so much of the
best in literature. that he should next address
still wider audiences through the columns OF
the daily newspaper.

THE JND or THE TRIAL.,

The iurymen in the suit of Tilton against
Beccher are still unable 10 agree. They are
reported (of course without any satisfactory
evidenced TO stand nine for acquittal against
three for conviction. Every hour OF The con-
tinued delay now seems to make final fail
IRE to agree more probable. This result of
the smt is what nine men ont of ten have ex-
pected ever since the evidence was closed.
Those who remember that the business OF a
jury is not to balance probabilities but to sift
evidence were satisfied long ago that the
plaintiff had failed to make ont his case with
clcarness enough to Justify a verdict. There
is popular superstition that the truth can
always be elected by a court or an investi
eating committee il one goes at the job in
earnest; and so, as this cause was
passed on from the newspapers 20 the
church, and from the church to the City Court,
the public always came forward with ears wide
open, saying, "Now we are going to know all
"abOut it." But after year Of inquiry and
fierce discussion and repeated failure, it is
beginning to be understood that from the very
nature of the case, absolute proof on either

However other people who have wrcstled
with the complications of the Brooklyn
business may have been thrown in their
efforts to explain its strange and contradictory
DEVELOPMENTS, obviously Miss Augusta Moore
has had no such difficulty. BY her statement,
published eewhere, il will be seen that she
has very clear and comprehensive theory of
the case; and the reader will observe, perhaps
that she has no difficulty in presenting ii in
manner that lacks neither precision nor dis
thickness The aoTret6 with which she sets
forth her own views OF the proper management
of such husbands IA she thinks Mr.. Tilton
was, and the marvellous frankness with which
sho comments upon that persons domestic
habits, are only equalcd by the artlessness
with which she describes Mr.. Bcccher's weak
ness and the folly of his friends in disregard
ing her warnings and advice. Whoever saw
Miss Moore on the witness stand, or read her
testimony, will not wonder at her boldness in
telling Mr.. Beecher that for a man of his great
knowledge OF human nature, lie had the least
understanding of the character of persons i'm
mediately about him of any man that had
common sense. And Mr.. Beecher's reply,
after moments. thought that he began
to think so HIMSELF seems to those
who know him the most natural thing
in the world. Miss Mooie's last contribution to

The evidence before The Assembly Com
mittee for the investigation of crime in this
city appears to .be cumulative. The facts
elected yesterday confirm the stories OF
Martnot and Groo, and go great deal
farther towards proving the cOnnivance of the
police at the dOings of gamblers, panel
thieves ard keepers of disreputable estab-
lishments. We are told of ward
school 80 Situated that the children can
not look out from any of its windows
without their eyes falling upon indecency; OF
police captains attempt to extort from
nurse the money Of her de/ased patient; OF
officers refusing to arrest panel-thieves caught
almost in the act of numerous houses known
to be rented for disroputablo purposes; OF
complaints made by citizens and unnoticed by
the police; and Of over hundred houses OF
il-fame aud gambling dcns visited by. sin

This is a frightful record, but we are assured

Mr. Bancroft has done timely thing, in a
graceful way, in calling the attention OF the
country to the long-fOrgotten pledge OF Con-
gress that monument should be erected at
Yorktown, in Virginia, to commemorate the
victory which ended the struggle Of the Ameri-
cans for independence of the British Crown.
Mr.. Bancroft's letter is appropriately addressed
to the Mayor of Boston, which has its own
imposing monument on Bunker Hill, and which
has so recently been the scene of renewal of
vows between the people of Massachusetts and
Virginia. His idea is that the monument at
Yorktown shall be lasting memorial not
only of the peace won at Yorktown, but OF
the work of reconciliation not begun indeed
in Boston, hut which has there received such
impetus. Boston grasps the suggestion with
heartiness which gives promise Of immediate
action; and if the spirit shown in that city on
the 18th of June, 1875, is manifested through
out the Union, there is reason to believe that
the proposed monument will be erected, as it
is meet that it should, by tho 10th of October,
1881, when will occur the last of our great
Centennial celebrations

We have in this country some of the finest
engineering talent that has ever been applied
to bridge building. Foreign experts, reporting
upon several of our noted bridges, have pro-
nounced the United States superior in this re-
spect to Europe; the structures referred to
being remarkable for the skill and ingenuity
with which all parts arc made subservient to
the purpose of bearing probable strain. If,
therefore, o weak, defective bridge is built in
this country, the fraud or ignorance that per
mits its construction has no excuse whatever.
Especially is this the case in regard to a
bridge built by the United States Government
Yet from the description given by careful
correspondent in letter our fourth page,
it appears that the new bridge built under the
supervision of the War Department, across the
Anacostia Branch OF the Potomac, is not only
faulty, it is absolutely dangerous. The work
from the foundation upward has failed to COM
ply with the specifications. The piers are
already infirm; the roadway is so low as to be
liable TO overflow at high water. The materi-
ais are not of the strength required, and the
structure is unskillfuily planned. In short
there is every preparation for great bridge
accident"
