THE WORST THINGS AGAINST THE
BEECHER THEoRY.-The ugly thing about
this case is what the defendant himself
furnishes, and what the plaintiffs wife has
done. The confession, it is said, was wrung
from her by the ferocity of her husband. But
he was gone four months afterward, when
she could have fed to her friends for protec-
tion. She made dozen people, more or less
the depositary of her secret when her hus-
band was not near, and nearly a year passed
before the confession 10 DIR. Storrs was re-

SELECTING JURIEs.--Attorney General
Train, OF Massachusetts, has renewed a re-
eommendation that he made last year, that
the law IN relation to jurors be so amended
that the Commonwealth shall have the same
right OF challenge as is given to the prisoner
IN capital cases. Under the present law, the
prisoner has q challenges, and the common
wealth only 10. The attorney general SAYS
that the first effort of the defence is to secure
a Jury otweak men, and that ''the acquittal
of a guilty party is greater wrong to sO-
ciety than The crime itself; in any such ac-
-quittal the law has failed of its purpose, and
The security of every life in the community
has been diminiShed.'

eIal. This morning, to protest against the an
prOyai Of Senate bill 1876, being an act IN
facilitate the disposition OF cases in the Su-
pr'me Court of the United States and for
other purposes. The objections urged against
the bIll are. First. II provides for jhe review
by jury Of causes which have been once
passed upon by the Court, VIII ich is a reversal
Of ali correct practice under which the YER
diet Of a jury il to be reviewed by the Court.
Second. Because by the necessities OF admit
rally causes the witnesses could never be
presented i'm the Circuit Court, and any az
tempt 10 call the witnesses together q second
Time for that purpose would TuinOuSly in
crease the expense Of such causes. Third.
Because under that provision the decision of
judge who has seen the witnesses is made
renewable by "A Jury before whom the wit
neSSeS could practically never be presented.
II Is also represented that the approval of
this bill would be detrimental to the inter
eStS OF commerce and Objectionable to all who
are interested in shipping, and 10 practorS
and advocates engaged in admiralty causes.
The Attorney General did not intimate to
;he delegation what action he would take on
their protest.
