Inspiration indicated.

We invite the thoughtful attention OF the
honest sceptic to the thoroughness with
which recent occurrences have established
the literal accuracy of the inspired apostles
saving s"rhe law was made for sinners"
1t is not only possible but very probable
that Paul did not intend that the significance
of the passage should bew what it unavoldably
seems just now, but the letter of the express
sion is nevertheless fully sustained. There
is the case of the Northampton Bank robbers,
who hope to save themselves through the
law which they have offended; the notori-
GUS .sJohn Garabaldi' is being earnestly
looked out for in similar manner the Whis-
key Ring believe the law Is doing far
better by them than it is by the community,
and host Of minor cases swell the list.
Looking backward at the records OF courts
of oil degrees the respectable citizen is lack
ing in spirit and the impulse to take the
best possible care Of himself if he does not
find himself inclined to rob bank, run a
gambling house or kill man, for the SIM
pie satisfaction of feeling how handsomely
the law can be made to protect the criminal
After contemplating the quoted passage in
this aspect, however, an agonizing doubt
occurs as to the authenticity of that other
saying, 1.-The letter killeth." Perhaps it
does; but in New York it's principal victims
are the hopes of the virtuous. Were it lit
orally in operation there would be less
killing done by the wicked.

WALL STREET YEsTERDAY.-The stock market

great change in values. There was an advance
in the coal stocks and in New York Central,

it closed firm. Government and railroad bonds

TIE WEATHER.-The storm centre which has
been travcrsing the lake region since Tuesday
morning has moved to the coast of Nova Scotia,
and will leave our continent during to-day.
A considerable area Of snow and rain, extend
ing from the Atlantic to the lower lakes,
attends the depression, and high winds, which
have been experienced far to the southwark as
Philadelphia, marked its progress eastward.
Following the disturbance area of high press
ure extends from Manitoba southeastward over
the lake region TO the Middle Atlantic coast An
extensive storm area has moved from the south
west into the Missouri aud Mississippi
valleys. Snow has fallen along the northern
margin of the elongated depression, and
rain soufhward Of st. Louis. Very high winds
nrcvail around the storm centre, and particu-
larlv in the Northwest. This storm is likely to
prove very severe one on our coast, and ship
masters will do well to provide for its coming
during tonight or tomorrow. The pressure is
h;g,, off the South Atlantic coast. The tempera-
ture ia high in the South and Central districts but
very Low in the North, Northwest and Northeast.
r,,s M;ssouri has risen at Lcavenworth. All the
other rivers have fallen. Stormy weather is
rrobable for the COASTS of Great Britain and Nor
vav after Sunday next. The weather IN New
York to-day will be cool and cloudy, followed py
YARN and threatening weather, possibly with
rain. and increasing easterly to soutneriy anu
westerly winds

ANOTHER HERALD STORM WARNING IN En-
RoPE.-On Saturday, March 3, we sent the fol-
lowing storm warning by cable to our London
bureau for the benefit of international com
mercc:- "Probable weather disturbance, with
gales and rain on the British and French coasts.
by the middle of the week." and published the
prediction in the HERALD Of the 4th for the in
formation of our readers. The dispatches from
London, published elsewhere in this mornings
HERALD, show that warning was warranted
and well timed. The snow fall in London prob
ably turned into rain during yesterday afternoon
and last night.

We thought it was about time for Mr..
Henry Bergh to take part in the Spitz dog
controversy, and we were not wrong, as he
appears to-day in a communication else
where published as counsel for the defend
ant With his usual skill he compares
Cnsarism with hydrophobia, and seems to
consider these both very rare if not, indeed,
wholly imaginary diseases. The recent
cases. we'll authenticated in which persons
have died of hydrophobia from the bites of
Spitz dogs he does not deign to notice, but
ably argues that as the saliva of excited
men is as poisonous as that Of mad
dogs it is the duty of the press to
Few persons, it is true, would like to be
bitten Just now by democrat, but we ven
ture to suggest to Mr.. Bergh that men sell
dom use their teeth as weapons of attack,
except on food !; while dogs, according to
DIR. Watts, delight to bark and bite because
it is their nature. Therefore we must
mildly dissent from his opinions on this
subject and hold to our firm belief that q
Spitz dog is more dangerous than even Tam
many politician. Mr.. Bergh himself is occa-
sionally excited, yet we should not on that
account advise that he should be muzzled
but would even leave his pen free in his mo-
ments of greatest rage. We are surprised
that so devoted friend of the CANNES
should admit that in three years he has as
sisted at the deaths of two thousand five
hundred dogs, even if he was cruel only to
be kind. Fifteen of these martYred animals
were Spitz dogs, and not one of them, Mr..
Bergh says, was mad, but all were suffering
from nervous excitement, superinduced by
tin kettles and boys. Why they were killed
instead of being cured Mr.. Bergh does not
explain. 1t is to be hoped, however, il
his own theory of the development of poison
in men by anger be true, that he will never
be bitten by Spitz dog, for he might then
be obliged to mourn for the loss of pet.
There would be great danger then of new
illustration of the following we'll known
lines of Goldsmith -
But soon a wonder came to sight
Which proved the knavcs had lied;
Tho man recovered OF the bite,

Hayes Cabinet when its members have
SO obviously been selected to carry out
policy to which their own party is
pledged. If they allow Mr.. Hayes
nominations to be defeated they will be
false to their own avowed principles on
the Southern question and the civil service
question. In a republican division over the
Cabinet the democratic Senators hold the
game in their own hands. Will they be SO
insane, will they SO give the lie to their
professions of friendship to the South, as to
support Blaine against the President? If
they do it will be nm irretrievable blunder.
We are confident that the public senti-
ment of the country strongly approves of
the nomination of Mr.. Evarts and a body of
Guilty in acting. 1t was not President
Hayes, but the country, that designated Mr..
Evarts for Secretary of State. Long before
Mr. Hayes had any authority to tender the
nomination public opinion had made a
spontaneous and unanimous selection Of
Mr. Evarts as the fittest man for Secretary
of State. We think it impossible that the
democratic Senators can be so blind or
churlish as to vote against the confirmation
of Mr.. Evarts If they should they will Ego
further and fare worse" There is no men,
Der of the proposed Cabinet who should be
especially Objectionable to the democratic
party. We trust the democratic Senators
will treat the new President with candor
and magnanimity and strengthen him in his
purpose to carry out policy to which their
own candidate was committed.

A Chair OF state.

ssNow am seated as my soul delights"
This must evidently be the comfortable
ejaculation Of Senator Davis when he gets
himself fairly down into that chair in the
Senate that is said to measure thirty-three
by twenty five inches. There was no chair
in the Senate to fit this representative of
great State, and we are not astonished at it.
for they have not had q man Of these Panta-
gruelian proportions in that body this many
n day. Once they had, however-in the
good old times-as is evidenced by the fact
that this great chair has been produced
from the lumber department, having for
merly accommodated man even larger
than Judge Davis. It is conceivable that
the presence of member who fills such a
chair may add to the weight of the Senate,
and equally conceivable that the other men
who sit on the Supreme Bench" may be
glad to get rid of a member who couid
tip them all up in case Of emergency.
The Theatres and the Newspap ers.
We publish elsewhere a somewhat lengthy
communication from Mr.. Fiske. of the Fifth
Avenue Theatre, commenting severely on
the recent decision of Justice Flammer, that
the attempt to obtain free ticket to place
of amusement by forging an order on the
management is not a legal offence. we
have nothing to say at present OF Judge
Planners decision except that it may be
good law but the general subject of which
Mr.. Fiske treats is of much more impor-
lance and deserves attention. The free list
system has grown to be gigantic nuisance,
and the theatres suffer greatly by it.. All
that is said in the letter OF deadheads'
blackmailers, impostors and forgers is nc
doubt substantially true, and our CORE.
