1t is reported" from Trenton that the
Grand Jury has found an indictment
atiainst Mrs. House for killing Mr..
House, the divorce lawyer. 1t is like
wise reported that Mrs. House is " living
with her father" in Trenton, from
which it appears that murder is a bail
able offense in New Jersey. If it is true
that Mrs. House has been indicted, We
may get some light on point not yet
made clear in our Jurisprudence. 1t is
law in all the States except New Jersey
that woman may kill man whenever
she likes when they have had affection
ate and confidential relations, unless the
man is her husband. What the rights
are when the man is her husband. has
not yet been accurately determined, and
tie case of Mrs. House will establish a
needed precedent. The fact that she is
Giving with her father" instead of
being locked up in lonesome and un-
pleasant Jail, indicates that public senti-
ment in New Jersey is progressive, and
that the rights of woman will be held
to include the right to shoot her own
husband as well as the right now conce-
ded to her to shoot a man who have
made himself offensive to her by be.
coming the husband of somebody else.

SAVANNAH'S PLAGUE.

The Yel,hr Fsrer Fisitation-The Suicidal
Policy Of Pantc.
A Savannah letter writer, speaking Of
the terrible epedim ic there, says
During the scare consequent upon the
dread mortality OF the disease, the au-
thorities listened too readily TO hare
Drained, visionary schemes or relief, and
actually gave Endorsement ofncially to
certain measures. such as cleansing out
the foul canals and drains which sur
round the city on the east and west.
This work was actually commenced, and
hundreds of laborers employed in ex,
posing to the suns rays the soil charged
with malarial poison. DR., White, OF
New York, promptly and decidedly in
formed the authorities that the policy
was suicidal. Events following proved
the truth of his assertions, and the work
was stopped Hope springs up tod ny
when there is an evident abatement OF
the deatb-rate, to be ruthlessly
overrhrown the next, as our Oldest a nd
most valued citizens succumb to the IA
tai disease. To-day in the southwestern
suburbs of the city, inhabited thickly by
the poorer class OF whites and negroes,
there is developed an alarming increase
of the number of cases, and yet larger
increase of malignity of the disease. The
course of the disease has been so widely
different from the yellow fever heretofore
seen and experienced here, as to lead
many to doubt whether it is genuine
yellow fever. DIR. White regards it as
partaking more of the malarial type, and
others who have had experience say it
is the African malarial fever. DIR. Buntz,
German physician of Wilmington, was
taken ill yesterday, and as l write is re-
ported dying. The other nonresident
physicians have so far escaped. and l
trust their exemption may continue.
There is vast amnunt OF suffering here;
one cannot how imagine how great un-
til he actually visits the scenes OF dis
tress. The poorer classes are entirely on
the charity of the Savannah Benevolent
Association, and the middle classes, who
have heretofore been able to hold up,
have been forced to yield to memorable
want and become the benefciaries of the
fund so kindly raised by the people of the
entire country.

BOLD RoBBEEY.-At Summit Bridge,
between II and l o'clock Tuesday night,
four men went to the hotel Of S. w.
Clements, and pretending to be detec
tives they handcufed Mr.. Clements, tied
his harkeeper. and then robbed the house
of $500.
They then departed on foot, having left
their team on the other side Of the bridge
and being unable to get back, as the
bridge tender had opened the draw and
refused to allow them to pass over.

Senator Bayard's Address in that county,
as follows;
BAYARD.-The features of the fair last
week was the address of Hon. Thomas

Bayard has been formally requested on
behalf of the farmers and mechanics of
the county, to permit us to publish the
address and has consented to give it to
.our people. Just as soon it can be pre-
pared and sent us We shall publish it. The
day it was delivered, there was a tremen-

crowded and the area in front filled with
listeners.

There is possibility that Judge Hoar
may he elected over both Butler and
Tarbox. The vote of the district is be-
tween $4,000 and 10000. In 1872 Judge
Hoar received Hip votes against s.
$40 for Tarbox. In 1974Dr. Ayerreceived
7,415 votes, while Tarbox received 1919.
1t is evident that Butler has no chance
unless he can draw heavily from the
Democratic vote, which is not at all pro-
bable.

THE GREAT BATTLE.
Victory for the Democrats.
THE PEOPLES TRIUMPH.

THE PEOPLES TRIUMPH.
The returns indicate great victory for
the Democrats in the West. Ohio, In
diana and West Virginia have evidently |
signified their determination to vote for |
TILDRS and HENDRICKS and Reform
and Retrenchment in November. 1t is
impossible at this writing to give the
complete returns which are very con-
fused. Enough is known to induce the
belief that all three of the States have
gone for the Democrats. The returns of
the early morning which were confused
and conflicting, have been followed by
dispatches which assert that the Demo-
Gratis have carried both Indiana and Ohio,
while there has been enough returns from
West Virginia to show that it has given
large Democratic majority varying from
1000 to 5000.
In certain sense, says the y. y. sun,
the Republicans had right to claim each
Of these States, for they had never de-
serted them in any Presidential election.
And it was rare that in any purely State
election either Of them had gone for the
Democrats. For the Republicans to lose
either now might, therefore be regarded
as gain for the Democracy. The very
most then, that the Republicans could af.
ford was to lose one of them. They
might probably get along without
West Virginia; But they must carry In.
diana and Ohio unless they were pre-
pared TO give up every reasonable chance
of electing their Presidential ticket il
November.
The elections were peaceful in all tn
States, and there is little doubt that tn
people have determined to put out c
power the party which has since the clos
of the wal done all it could to engende
animosities and prevent harmony, unio
and prosperity.
Let every Democrat now resolve thu
he will do all in his power until the clos
of the polls on the 9TH of November t
make our triumph then certain.
Should these returns be fully confrme
our Republican friend of the Commerce.
should hang up the ''fiddle and the bow
since according to the claims of his part
the vote of October is the sure index
the vote of November.
