THE fall of Edward S. Rand, Jr, of
Boston, is but a repetition of the old
story. A lawyer seems to be doing a
very lucrative business, lives lavishly and
is pillar in church and favorite in
social circles. Suddenly it is discovered
that, instead of living on income, he has
been expending trust funds. OF course
he escapes criminal prosecution, for few
lawyers are foolish enough not to keep
within the letter of the criminal law.
The widow and the orphan, whose prop
erty has been misappropriated, must LOOK
to the civil courts for redress, are soon
wearied out and forgotten.--N. Y. Sun
We publish the above not as a matter
Of news, because the fact has already ap.
peared in the GAZETTE, but to say thai
our Legislature at its session in 1875 made
breach-of-trust felony, and if Mr.. Ed
ward S. Rand, Jr., was in Delaware in
stead of Boston, he would be candidat,
for the whipping-post. 1t is well for thi
matter to be noted. Some may still b,
in ignorance Of the law and find it ou
too late.

WANAMAKER'S TRIUMPH.-The fash
ions of the day are very costly and are not
kept pace with except at great toll and
anxious forethought. The dress of lady
now takes as much material and trimming
as two did twenty years ago, and costs as
much as hall dozen dresses did when the
men of fifty were twenty. Consequently
there is both time and money to be expend-
ed or saved in shopping" John Wana-
maker, the celebrated clothing merchant
OF Philadelphia, has the credit of forming
proper conception of this matter. and hit
upon happy arrangement for relieving
thls ouly at least of much of its labor and
nearly all of its unpleasant the ex
pense remains, but that is not his fault.
so successful has he been in arranging his
great dry goods depot at Thirteenth and
Market streets, Philadelphia. that the Ia
ules oil that city are ready to cry "blessed ~
This wonderful establishment contains on
one noor and under one roof everything
which lady needs.
But the novelty and excellence of the
great depot is to be found in the fact tha
those who shop in it are rid of all tina
makes shopping wearisome and un
pleasant. One enters with the crowd pour
ing in from Chestnut street, and pauses
moment TO take survey of the vast room
and the hundreds that are each intent upol
her own business, and is soon in the mids
OF the crowd Or, if so disposed she ma
enter The ladies' waiting and reading room
ana observe the fashions, look over men
orandums, make others, or take a rest. a
unoDserVed, SO great is the throng. We ar
toid mat many ladies spend hours here i
waiting for their friends and while maxim
up their minds what to buy, there beip
nearly every style of dress fully displaye
within view, besides an almost innumer,
Que variety OF articles necessary 10 u

AT twelve O'Clock to-day the order for
the removal of the U. S. troops from the
city of New Orleans to their barracks
took effect. This act sets the people Of
Louisiana free from the gang of robbers
who had fastened themselves upon the
State, and were kept in their positions by
Grant and his Cabinet after the facts oil
their corrupt acts had been known. II
is now hoped that Congress will pass such
a law as will preclude the use of the ar
my to overawe and crush the liberties Of
the people Of State forever thereafter
The letter which Ben Wade publishes
shows that there is a class of fanatics
still in the country Who would destroy
liberty at anytime for the monay that
may be got out Of the offices, just as such
old abolitionists as he have done. and de.

The TRUTH IN BRIRF.-Our able and
pleasant Democratic contemporary, the
Lancaster Intelligencer, prints the truth
concisely and pointedly in the following
brief paragraph.
The best evidence of the validity of the
Nichols and Hampton governments is the
heartiness with which their establishment
is acquiesced in by their respective States
and the era Of prosperity which now
seems to dawn upon them both. Hac
any other result been achieved there
would have been lawless discord where
now the undisputed exercise CT constitu-
tional power prevails and individual and
State bankruptcy would have ensued
instead of public and private prosperity
This comparison proves beyond all doubt
the strength and validity of the position
on Southern affairs which the Democrat.
ic party maintained before and since the
Presidential election,
