A PicruRE.-It was scarcely nec-
essary to bring any evidence against
him, for as he sat there in the flick
ering light that struggled through
the dark and dusty windows Of the
Police Court his face alone gave
proof possible that we might be gull
ty of any possible crime. When his
great, sensuous lips parted in what
those who never saw it might call a
smile, nothing more pleasant was
suggested than the gnashing of
teeth. The crimes not. of one man
alone but Of ancestry and of ages
were written on that face, with its
Laughing DEVILS" its brutalized con
science, and saddened relics of yir-
tue. He was charged with intoxica-
ton. But when the trial came on
1T was impossible to prove the charge
and the evidence went to show that
he was the wrong man. s.Judge"
said one witness, II have knowed
him twenty years, and I allowed his
looks were powerfully hard agin him,
but l never knowed him to do mean

thing" This was a current of all
the testimony. It appeared to be
misfortune Of the family that they
united the most vicious looking faces
with excellent character. His bro.
ther who had a face but shade bet
ter than the other, testified that q
model had been taken of his face bv
an iron casting firm in Pittsburr.
who wished something to keep the
children frightened away from the
furnaces. "Well," said the Judge
with asigh, sit appeara clear that
the defendant is not guilty, and If he
will turn his face away from tho
court, I will make out the paper for
discharge"

+ A man that is too well born for

respect for honest labor for the
healtEful maintenance Of either mo-
rails or government. There exists a
notion among great class of people
that when person is relieved by the
possession ofproperty from arduous
toll it becomes degradation for him
to labor at all-if the habit Of work
is SO fixed that moneyed men can
not remain idle, he apologies for SO
doing as a sort Of vice, and then he
refers to "habit" as he would refer
to addiction to opium or rum, as
something to be ashamed of but
which unfortunately had got the bet

carefully to. "sink the shop" end
turn up their noses at those who
work for a living. In seeking mat
rimonial alliances he looks for
wealth rather than industry for them,
and chooses as husband for his
daughter the man who has his in
heritance in hand no matter how
untitled he may be to cope with mis-
fortune, rather than the man who
has fortune in his brain and can
win his own way. Idleness and ex-
travagance are curses worse than the
plague OF Egypt They breed sor-
row, wretchedness, crime and misc

and felons' cells, and put daughters

ness is crime, and the girls should
be taught it no less than the boys;
every crime should be taught some

The intelligence that the Supreme
Court OF Louisiana has reversed the
verdict of the jury in the case of
Thomas G. Anderson, of Returning
Board fame, on the ground that the
Vernon Parish returns were not sua.
ceptible Of forgery, will be received
with regret and establishment. IN
til we have further information than
this meagre outline of the grounds
upon which the judgment of the
court was rendered, it would be USE
less to indulge in any criticisms of
the result. At the same time it
seems an extraordinary proceeding
for any court of law to overthrow the
verdict of a jury as to question of
fact, unless in the opinions Of the
judges tnat verdict was contrary to
the weight of evidence. The case
was so clear of all doubts as to the
guilt of the accused; the testimony
proved so positively that the returns
had been forged, and the learned
magistrate who presided at the trial
so fully presented all the points Of
law bearing upon the questions
raised, that this action of the appel
late court seemed never to have been
dreamed of by anybody. The prop
osition that an election return, the
integrity of which is guarded by the
most emphatic statutory provisions,
is not susceptible Of forgery, is q
paradox that, at. this distance, ap

The knot Of the Louisiana compli
cation has been very neatly cut by
the Supreme Court of that State. 1t
is decided that the consolidated re.
turns of election, one of which was
said to have been forged by the Re.
turning Board, are not instruments
legally capable of becoming the
means of committing fraud, and that
therefore their alteration in any way
whatever cannot be construed into a
criminal ofe,se. This not only eff
fects the release of Gen. Anderson,
but also acts as bar against any
further prosecutions Of the Return
ing Board. The decision has the re-
markable merit of pleasing both
sides. 1t enables the Attorney Gen
eral and his party to claim that they
have demonstrated the illegality Of
the returns on which Hayes was cleo
ted; and it prevents the immediate
possibility of a split in the Demo
cratic ranks by relieving Nichols of
the necessity of interfering with the
execution of the programme of the
unreconciled members of his party
Republicans will have their convic-
ton of the iniquity of the whole pro,
ceedings against tide Returning Board
deepened by decision which shows
they were as destitute Of warrant in
law as in equity. Louisiana ought
now to have-what it greatly needs

THE RELEASE OF ANDERSON.
HOW THE NORTHERN PRESS REGARD
THE DECISION OF OUR sU-
PREME COURT.


The Supreme Court Of Louisiana
orders the release Of Returning Board
Anderson. The basis of the decis
ion was that alteration of figures in
the election returns so as to alter a
presidency was not forgery within
the meaning of the statute. If he
had forged a check for five dollars
he could have been punished; but
the mere act of making imperative
the SURFACES of a few millions of
people isn't worth mentioning.
Enquirer.

Anderson is at liberty, and Wells
and the colored brethren of the Re
turning Board will not be RAILROAD
ed' into the penitentiary at present.
The Supreme Court of Louisiana has
decided that the alteration of figures
III election returns is not an act of
forgery, and consequently that the
Indictment for doctoring the Vernon
parish returns could not stand. The
decision is comforting to the Return
ing Board, but as it removes every
vestige of restraint npon election
frauds, it will not be healthy for the
party which does not handle the re-
turns hereafter. It might have been
better for the interests of honesty
and justice if the Governor had par
doned Anderson and amnestied his
partners in the conspiracy, and thus
relieved the court of the duty of de-
Gliding that election returns may be
falsifed with impunity.-[ Chicago
