II took the jury In the libel suit
against the Boston Herald for defama,
ton of the Cardiff Giant about ten min
utes to agree upon verdict for the de-
fendaute, An article in the Herald de-
scribing the giant az humbug prevent
ed the sale of the property 20 DIR. Pal
mer, of Fitchburg. The doctor testi-
fed that he made up his mind after read
ing the article, to cancel his agreement
with the owners of tue giant, but the
Court ruled that the article must be
shown to be false in order to justify a
verdict of damages, and as no evidence
of its falsity was produced, the jury
found for the defendants. Every one
knows now that the Cardiff Giant was
great humbug. The whole history of
its "rise and progress" is given in a very
interesting article on this page. =.

Four murdereFs have been convicted
and sentenced to death in New York
city within one week. The evidence
against tnea, wss chiefly circumstantiai
and no stronger thsa which in many
cases heretofore has resulted In failure
to convict. This does not look much as
though hanging in the forcible language
of notorious criminal was played out
in New York. Ii SIsq shows that the
law faithfully applied s abdnd4 ntly suf-
ficient In each of these cases the az
rest and conviction followed speedily
upon the commission of the crime. The
long delays which frequently are inter-
posed defeat the purpose of the law in
so far as its purpose is to preyeat e.ipla.
Punishment must be certain and speedy
in order to be an effectual warning to
criminela. District Attorney Phelps
and Recorder HEackstt have made them
selves terror to evil doeFs End g strong
effort will e.made to defeat them st tle
polls to-day, but we do not think this
effort win be successful we certainly
hope It viii not. ......

'.. bhlddAM HObNG y TROUBLE. ..-
The proceedings of the third district
court of Utah, ordering the imprison-
ment of Brigham Young, until the
$4,000 alimony be paid by him to Eliza
Young, have been brought to the atten-
ton of the Attorney General. The
question presented is whether the arrest
of Brigham Young could be made on
the grounds claimed by the woman, for
the reason that her marriage with Young
was illegal, Git being contrary to the
laws of the United States, and that she
was therefore merely his concubine,
and cannot take advantage of her own
wrong. The subject will be brought be-
fore the Cabinet with a view of deter
ming the exact status of the case. The
matter excites much interest in the ex-
ecutiye and judicial circles.

The great world wondered:
Two lives are sundered,
Two streams have flowed to the sullen
The past Is in ashes
And memory dashes
The hopes that were born with the birth
of the years:
Life's dream is relinquished,
Loves lamp is extinguised,
The future is laden with curses and

Deaths parting-to sever
Forever, forever,
10 breathe in world without fragrance
Deaths parting to wander
Alone, and to ponder
Der dreams that lie buried in anguish
and gloom.
What demon has entered
Where angels have conferred,
Where life was as sweet as the glance or
a child;
What flame has o'erpowered
The love so empowered,
The beauty, the hope, and the faith un-
defiled?
All bright was the summer,
When ev'ry new conner
Poured gladnsss in bosonis Of bride
groom and bride;
All pura was each meeting,
Each smile and each greeting,
Each tear that seemed sweeter than
honor or pride.

THE suit for libel against the New
York Times by petty Tammany
politician is another blow against
the freedom of the press. 1t is per-
fectly plain that John Kelly is the
instigator in the matter, although the
attempt to arrest the editor OF the
Times was made by one King, Should
the ''Boss" prove successful to day in
his attempt to oust Hackett the anti
ring papers in New York will not have
an easy or ordinary struggle to maintain
their freedom. With all the places in
power filed by the tools of Tammany
The guardiana Of the public rights would
doubtless be consigned to the Jail and.
penitentiary, and press gag law made
most effective. But the city of New
York has not been given over to the
thieves and piunderers, and We believe
that this most recent attack upon the
Times will prove as Intellectual as such
attempt have in the past -.

took steps 20 establish grading system for gram

Exchange to adopt such rules and TO make them

proposed loss OF identity would have upon the title
OF the grain. These questions we're submitted TO
tue counsel OF the Exchange, Mr.. r. Foster, Jr
and TO Judge Fancner:-
These gentlemen yesterday submitted a very
