Tho Widow OF soldier Killed While
Playing Ball Gets a Pension.

We are pleased to learn that Mrs.
Cronin, widow Of David Cronin, has at
last succeeded in obtaining her pension
of IS per month and So per month for
each of her minor children, dating from
1868 up to the present time. Mr.. Cronln
was an old settler in this county, and
when his country stood in need of men at
the front lie promptly enlisted. During
e season, however, while his regiment was
lying in camp, he met with an accident
while engaged with other members Of the
company IN game Of ball, which caused
his death. Because Of his having met
his death IN the manner described, the pen
sion officers ruled that his family was not
entitled to pension, and several applica-
lions to obtain one failed. But finally a
clause was discovered in the military rcgu-
lations aut horizing troops when lying in
camp or garrison to participate in any and
all healthful field sports, games, etc. Upon
discovery of this clause, the friends of the
family placed another application for pen
sion in the hands Of Pension Agent Nc.
Bride, of this city, who accompanied the
application with the clause of the rugula-
lions spoken of, and this time it proved
successful, and the application was
promptly complied witll-granting the
widow the pension which she was so
clearly entitled to, and which she had SO
long been deprived of, amounting up to
date to some $2,0OO.-Lakc City Leader.

SAMUEL J. TILDEN.

The newspapers Of the country, irrcs.
pective Of party, are expressing solicitude
concerning the health of MIR. Tilden
Apprehension exists that his great ambition
to become President and his herculean
efforts to promote his own election have
wrought a great injury to his health,
which is represented as being very poor
indeed. It is feared that his nervous sys
tenn has sustained a shock from which II
may never fully recover. Daniel Webster
Henry Clay and Horace Greedy were all
victims of an over weenlng ambition
martyrs to a mania tor the Presidential
office; but VIC hope Mr.. Tilden may
escape their fate, and live TO witness, under
the administration of Mr.. Hayes increased
prosperity and genuine reform, in de-
gree that would be wholly impossible had
the Democracy succeeded to the control
Of the country.

THE LAW IN MURDER CASES.

The Mortified tragedy and the subse-
quent arrest of the Youugers gave rise to
An extended and censorious criticism of
the Law Of the State for the punishment of
murder. Nearly the entire press have
condemned the present Statute and de-
manded restoration Of the death penalty
without modification.
The recent arraignment Of those motor
ious criminals and their plea Of "guilty''
70 the indictments against them for tho
crime of murder, Whereby the gallows is
<lefrauded, and the public sense Of justice
outraged, has served to excite an appeal
to the Legislature for re.cnaciment of
the old law. Upon this subject we are
frank to say that we do not entertain the
extreme views held by many Of our con
tsmporarics. We question the right Of
the State, in any case, to inflict capital
punishment, although We shall make no
argument now On that point, contenting
ourself by saying that it is a mootcd
question.
If it were right to punish crime with
death, still, whether it is ever expedicnt,
Is also question upon which the best
mxn are not agreed. One thing is GER
tain, viz. that as nations advance in NOR
ality and Intelligence there is constantly
increasing tendency 10 modify the form
and peaax the severity Of extreme penalties,
AMI wc believe this to be the result of true
progress. Our laws should be framed
with reference to general conditions, or
at least . general law should never be
based upon an exceptional case. Another
tragedy like the one at Mortified may
not occur in All hundred years, but that
We may be prepared for it at any time
let us amend the law, so that in case a
plea of "guilty" is entered, the Judge in
bis discretion may empannel jury to de-
termine the extent of the prisoners guilt
and the character of his punishment, if
the jury find him guilty of r1urder in the
hrst degree. Such an amendment will
meet every emergency, and save us from
return to the barbarous practice of uni.
versal hanging as penalty for the crime
Of murder.

GRAND jCRiE%

Many OF tue States have abolished the
Grand Jury system, believing 1t to be IN
inquisitoinal organization, more likely to
damage individuals than to benefit com,
munl,ies. The history OF this country
shows that We arc inclined rather to make
changes than to institute reforms, and
that substantial Improvements come to us
only after We .havc experienced the fail
u1es which are inevitable from the ch'>
rloyment Of extreme measures. We can
no. properly dispense altogether with the
Grand Jury, neither can we reasonably
employ it as we do at present. In some
cases through, the sccrcsy which its cx-
partc proceedings render possible, it is an
engine OF terrible cruelty and wrong, in.
fiicting not only hardship but deep dis
grace upon persons who are as innocent
rs truth itself; while in other cases, the
arrest Of offenders ard the punishment OF
crime result directly from the fact that
Investigations may be made and facts
asccrtained without the suspected parties
bcing appraised of what is being done
until tH.:cy find themselves in the stern
hands Of justice. What We need then is
\ modification of the present system, not
ito abolition The law, should, in our
judgement. be so amended AS that the
Grand Jury shall hold regular session.
not more frequently than once IN TWO
years, and special sessions at such other
times as the Judge of the District shall
direct. This would afford an opportunity
to make such Investigations as the inter
ests OF the country require, or as the
Judge may deem necessary. The ex-
animation and arraignu.ent Of all persons
charged with crime, except special cases,
reserved for the Grand Jury, should be
Il d upon an information made before a
Justice Of the Peace, or other proper
officer, By tho County Attorney, or some
other person cognizant Of the facts. This
would give every man chance to meet
in its inc,picncy any charges againstlin'
and it would relieve the people OF a heavy
burden Of useless taxation.
We hope the Legislature will take this
matter into careful consideration and
make such changes in tue present law as
seem to he demanded in the interests of
psticc and economy.
