back, carrying the grist in one end of the
bag and a stone in the other, when reproved
by the miller, and told to divide the grist,
replied that his father and grandfather had
carried it that way, and he, being no better
than they, should continue to do as they did.
Similar, or equally as absurd, reasons are &C.
counted as sufficient by some to warrant
them in Unfortunately condemning DR..
Pierce's Family Medicines, even though
there is overwhelming proof that they pos
sess the merit claimed for them. For many
years the Golden Medical Discovery has
been recognized as the leading liver and
blood medicine in the market. Each year
has brought an increase in its sale, and it is
now used throughout the civilized world.

Chin Nook Sow was hanged May 4, ct San
Francisco, for the murder of one of his
countryman on the 18th of December, 1875.
He was convicted solely on Chinese testi-
mony. An appeal was taken to the Su.
preme Court, which confirmed the judgment
of the lower court. The execution was set
for April ID, butthe Governor granted a stay
of proceedings until the 4th of May, to en-
able hint to review the evidence. The pris-
oner to the last maintained his innocence.
He was very r%eticent, declining to converse
much, merely requesting that his body be
surrendered to his friends without mutila-

AMONG the acts passed by the Pennsyl-
vania Legislature and signed by Governor
Hartranft, was one "for the better protec'
tion of passengers upon railroads, and to
insure the prompt transportation and de-
livery of frieghts," which is similar to an
act passed by the Delaware Leg gislature a
few weeks ago. The act prohibits engi-
neers from abandoning trains between sta
tious, and the only essential difference be-
tween the laws Of the two States is that the
law of Delaware makes it a misdemeanof
punishable by fine and imprisonment for a
railroad employe to induce another, by
offer of recompense, to leave the service OF
a railroad company, whereas the Pennsyl-
vania Legislature struck this provision
from the act before ite final passage.

THE first Turkish Parliament is rapidly
acquiring parliamentary ways. 1t was
opened with speech from the throne,
after the English fashion. The deputies
debate the questions that are laid before
them. Now it has been determined by
some of them t. question the Government
about the Punishment Of the late minister
Midhat Pasha. In reality the Turks
seem to find no difficulty in adopting the
methods of parliamentary governments.

ers, that no white man can become citi-
zen Of Liberia, that he cannot own a foot
of land, not a grave to be buried in, if he
be unfortunate enough to die there. This
may account for its stony immobility in
commerce, public works, and manufacture
1t is cool certainly to embroil 40,0oO,OOO

One of the chief obstacles to the success.
full prosecution Of Lees accomplices in the
Utah Courts arises from the fact that
Mormon witnesses must furnish proofs of
guilt sufficiently cogent to satisfy Mormon
jurymen. 1t would probably be easy to
convict a number of the surviving partici.
pants in the massacre if the offenders
could be tried in any other territory or
State than Utah but in view ofthe state
ments that Lees conviction was only pos
sible because he had been ostracised by the
head ofthe Mormon Church, and because
Brigham Young had instructed his adhe-
rents to facilitate the success of this partic
ular prosecution, there would appear to b.
but a slight prospect Of the conviction o
other offenders unless some such device a
change Of venue or an exclusion Of Nor
mons from the jury box is adopted. 1t i
folly to expect tribunal composed partl
Of men who look up to Brigham Young a
being endowed with superhuman contre
over their temporary and spiritual welfar
to convict him Of terrible crime. B
any ordinary standard Of judgment h
stands condemned already Of long Iii
Of infamous offences, for his life is made u
mainly of succession of villainons pract
ces, but it is not easy to see how he can
convicted by his dupes, his dependents, ar
his accomplices.

BRIGHAM YOUNG stoutly denies that
he had anything to do with the Mountain
Meadows massacre, as charged in the So
called confession of John D. Lee. 1t is
hard to believe that Mr.. Young, occupying
the position that he does in the church,
could have in any way given countenance
to such an atrocious and cruel butchery ol
men, women and children, and it will re-
quire stronger evidence than the mere
word of Lee to make the world believe it.

WILMINGTON, March e7. 1877:
AN IMPORTANT DECISION.

The decision in the Baltimore civil rights
case is one of peculiar, interest and impor-
tauce, especially to the colored citizens OF
the United States. There were eighteen
cases of colored people against the Baltl-
more aud Ohio Railroad Company, claim
ing $500 each, under the supplemental
civil rights bill Of March, 1875, because OF
the alleged inferior accommodations fur
nished them while returning from an ex-
cursion from Baltimore to Rockville, in
June last. The case of Mrs. Gully against
the company. was first tried before Judge
Giles, of the United States Circuit Court,
and a verdict for the defendant rendered.
In delivering his opinion, Judge Giles
drew distinction between the rights OF
citizen of State and the rights which be-
long to citizen of the United States.
Taking the ground that the Constitution
only protects such rights as belong to q
citizen Of the United States, and re-
cognizing the distinction between the
citizenship Of State and Of the United
States:-briefy Judge Giles holds that tht
privilege to use for local travel any public
conveyance, is not right arising unde
the Constitution of the United States. Th
Court instances the right to travel to th
National Capital on business for the gov.
ernment, the right to proceed to port o
the United States for foreign travel ant
others of similar character, as right
which belong to a citizen Of the United
States from the organization ofthe govern
meut, independent of any special legisla
ton.

meath the dust of ages in the Venetian

Venice was represented by her ENJOYS to
