Murder Will Out.

This declaration is succinct state
ment of theory as to murder In which
thu world once had robust and imph-
cit faith. But that faith has been shak-
that there have been several cases in
which the crime Of murder has been
committed without the fact becoming
known even that murder was doue, and
other caseIn which with the crime
known the murdererS have remained
undiscovered. People have paid the
less attention 20 this subject because it
has become matter of very little con-
sequence with us whether murder will
OUT or not, inasmuch as the result is
the same-the murderer commonly go
ing free in either case. Indeed, it might
be laid down as general rule In this
latitude that it is more convenient for
the murderer that his crime should be-
come known at once, inasmuch as he is
then tried and discharged and has no
further trouble; while in the other event
he is for years tortured with anxiety,
inasmuch as he always believes Justice
to be severer parsonage than he finds
her on close acquaintance. But the
verdict against Lee in regard to the
Mountain Meadow massacre seems like
a case of the real old-fashioned sort,
and may in some degree revive the old
fashioned faith. His crime has been
brought home to him after twenty years
and it seems highly probable that pun
ishment will follow. 1t may be remem-
bered that whole train of emigrants-
men, women, and children--were mur-
dered on that occasion by the Mormons,
who had some Indians with them to
give color to the report they spread
that the murders were committed by the
savages.

A MAINE MANS YARN.-A Maine man
visiting in Fitchburg, tells the follow
ing story: "Some three or four years
ago, young lady of his acquaintance
in Maine lost gold ring from her fin
ger in straw bed. Two years after
ward the straw was emptied into the
barn yard and mixed with the manure
there. In the spring the compost was
carted of and spread on field which
was afterward planted with potatoes.
In the Fall the potatoes were placed in
the cellar for family use. The other
day the young lady, on cutting into a
tuber which had been boiled and placed
on the table, found the missing ring
embedded in the centre" That's a
pretty tough story, and Maine man
says it's true.

James Redpath was born in Scot
land, 1888. He was a fighter for free
soil in Kansas, was an army CORE
pondent, and is now the head of @
Boston lecture bureau. The item
going the rounds of the press say
ing that he is negro is untrue. He
is still a young man, with all the
characteristics of radical Scotch
man.

IHE INDIAN FARCE The war being
over and the Indians victorious they are
now endeavorirg to defeat US at diplo-
macy. The old farce Of treaty making
has been repeated with the chiefs, and.
as our special dispatches from Red
Cloud Agency show, they are very
naughty in their demands, and sign the
treaty with an eye to rations this winter
and another war in the spring.

EXPLAINS IT.-Mr. Emerson says
that every one has two natures,
widely different. This explains why
it takes man working by the day
only thirty seconds to climb over a
wall into the shade at twelve O'Clock,
while he generally requires twenty
minutes to get back after the clock
strikes one.

The BATTLE OF SARAToGA.-As We
reed now the narrative of that famous
battle. in which, on the first days fight.
only three thousand Americans and
thirty-five hundred Britishers were en-
gagged, and less than one thousand fell,
it seems to our modern eye but an in
considerable skirmish. But it must be
remembered that it was not the fighting
of either the 10Th of September or the
7th of October which decided the result.
The simple fact was that Burgoyne
found himself surrounded by large
American force, and his retreat to Can
ada intercepted. This fact decided the
contest, and really decided the whole
war. American independence was as
truly secured at Schuylerville as the
overthrow of the rebellion was secured
at Gettys',urg.- DR.. Cuyler.
