The Murphy trial, says the Sundays

for the opposite sides of the case.
General Kiltrell made a very long and
able argument for the Stale, in day.
light, and at night General Clarke dis
cu.sed the merits of the case from the
defendants standpoint with his accus-
toned vigor and i~ncisiveness. The
discussion was closed by Hon. Thomas
Wells, acting District Attorney, in a
clear and concise summing up of tho
theory of the prosecution. After a
brief charge from Judge Wright, the
case went to the jury about midnight.
1t Is hardly probable that a verdict will
be- reached before tomorrow.

turns not received will not affect the
result.
The Secretary of State says, unofh
cially, the contest probably between
Pseheco and WiggiDgton, candidates
for Congress in the Fourth district, is
on the following grounds: In Mon
tersy county the Supervisors can
vassed and certified the returns to the
County Clerk. In the certificate is an
error in the footing made. San Lo'

for Wiggington than were actually
cast and the County Clerk subse
quenty changed the toOtings to CORE

has but one majority, it is expected
that Wiggington will contest on the
ground that the certificate of the Su-
pervisors was q finality and the Clerk
had no right to change the figures.

THE NEWS.

Our dispatches to-day are more than
usually Interesting, although they o n
tain nothing which sheds any light
upon the presidential muddle further
than a be CLEANED from the contra
dictory reports concerning the condi
ton Of affairs and the action of the
Returning and Canvassipg Boards in
the doubtful States," aud it will prob
ably be several days before we will
know the result of their action; while
the chances are more than even that
q still longer time will elapse before
the main question will be definitely
decided. The news from South Caro-
lima is of . character calculated to ex
cite the alarm of every advocate of a
peaceful settlement of the issues which
are now agitaiing the country. 1t is
certain that the only hope of the avoid
ance Of an outbreak there rests in the
GOODNESS and f~orbearance OF ths PEG
pie of the State, who thus far, under
the advice Of Gen. Hampton, and
other prominent men of his class, have
refrained from any manifestation OF
resentment, which, under the circum-
stances, is both remarkable and COM
mcndable. 1t is to be hoped that wise
counsels will continue to prevail and
that they will not be tempted into any
violation of the peace, which can only
result to their injury by furnishing a
pretext and plausible justification for
continued and further interference by
the National Government in their local
affairs, while quiet submission a not
fail in time to arouse the sympathies OF
all right thinking people of both par
ties throughout the Union. God grant
them wisdom and our country n safe
deliverance from the perils by which
it Is At present environed.
