A Fact Worth Knowing

At a second class hotel in Frankfort,
KY, 4 few weeks since, q little girl eli
teled the bar room, and in pltiful
tones told tie ar-kceper thai her
mother had sent her there to get eight
cents,
Eight cents said the bar-keeper.
Yes, sir"
"What does your mother want with
eight cents? l don't owe her any
thing"
"Wcll," said :he child, father
spends all lis money here for rum, and
we have had nothing to eat to day.
Mother wants to buy = loaf Of bread
A loaier suggested to the bar-keeper
to kick the brat out.
"No," said the bar-kccpcr, "Fn give
her mother the money; and if her
father ome back again I'll kick him
out"
Such n circumstance never happened
before, and may never happen again,
Humanity owes that bar -keeper 4 vote

Gov. Porter, by his firm and unset

the recommendation of the Suprem,
Court TO commute to Imprisonment fol
life the death penalty of Holt, the ne.
gro charged with rape has no doub'
created n howl about him that will moi
be easily hushcd. His act was mani,
and honorable, and looked above and
beyond the abstract justice of the case
and the question of expediency, to his
plain duty and the plain law. II we
are correctly informed, we entirely dis.
agree with the Supreme Court. In
criticising so high a body we say SO
~deferential!y, but the crime Of rape can
have no mitigating circumstance in
youth or 10 anything else. There is no
mitigation-there can be no excusing
circumstance, nothing to warrant a
court in setting aside u judgment OF n
jury. Rape more than murder merits
death. 1t is sheer mawkish sentimen.
snd mistaken mercy that would
lbate the penalty on account of youth,
