Deficient Detectives.


After all the smartness Of the New
York police they have been shorn OF
all the credit of arresting the murderer
of Mrs. Hull. All their fine deductions,
by which they ascertained just how the
murder was committed; how the muir
derer got into the house, what his mo-
tives we're; how the pillow was used;
where the candle was obtained, and all
the rest, turn out to have been utterly
wrong, and while they have been ran
sacking the world for some trace of the
murderer, he has been quietly walking
about the streets Of Boston, waiting to
tell the whole story to the FIRST person
who might pick him up. And the first
person was not one Of those keen-scent.
ed preternaturally acute detectives Of
New York, but Boston newspaper re-
porter, Mr.. w. R. Balch, who recogni-
zed him by the description given by
Boston pawnbroker, followed him up
and handed him over to the police. The
New York police knew that some of
Mrs. Hull's jewelry had been found in
Boston pawn shop, but as to who left
it there none could tell. 1t never en-
tered their minds that the murderer
could be any other person than some
one in DR.. Hull's house, and all the
time they were trying to scoop in some
of the servants or DR.. Hull himself, the
real murderer had only just left house
where he had been employed OH the
opposite side of the street. They never
thought of asking for missing servants
from tie neighborhood, and so fort
night passed away until the murderer
himself no was going back and forth
between New York and Boston, almost
threw himself into the way of news
paper reporter, telling him that lie was
from New York. Had DR.. Hull occu-
pied more humble position in society,
no doubt the police would have succeed
ed in weaving such chain of evidence
around him as would have sent him to
the gallows. Altogether, the case had
far less than the ordinary mystery,
concealment and difficulty about it.
The criminal took no special pains to
hide either himself or his plunder, and
the New York detectives have been
completely and very dscreditably at
fault, from first to last. We will pit
the Wilmington police against such
detectives any time.

JoIN R. MILLER, of Reading, must
haze terrible horror of passing
through the crisis leading from single
to married life. A few days ago he
was to have been married to very es-
timable lady Of his own city, but when
the time came for the marriage cere-
mony t, be performed Miller was not
to he found. He had gone, no one
knew whittier, and since then the pa
pers of the country have teemed with
sensational articles in regard to his sud
den and mysterious disapp pearance. On
Monday evening, however, Miss Neitz,
who was to have been Mrs. Miller, re-
ceivel letter from her timid and
scared lover, dated Saratoga, in which
h states that he is in good health, but
gave no reason for his queer conduct.
We think Miller's actions canaot be
justified, but at the sam time it would
not be amiss if there was q little more
timidity exercised about entering into
the married state, but Miller is little
too much troubled with bashfulness

Afraid Of the Army.


It is strange that the Democrats are
snly now waking up to see the danger
GUS tendency Of the army, and there is
very strong reason for suspscting that
their opposition to it now is only engen'
dered by the recollection Of the victories
it gained over what is now the main
portion of the: Democratic party during
the late rebellion. They were never
afraid of the army when under Presl-
dents Pierce and Buchanan it was used
in the attempt to establish slavery in
Kansas. 1t is only when the right Is
claimed to use it in cases of extreme
emergencies to preserve the rights OF
the people in enjoying the elective fran
chise that they are opposed to it. If
the liberties of 1000, 900 people of this
nation depend entirely upon our little
army of 10000 men, then our love Of
liberty is not very deep rooted. 1t is
only thieves and lawbreakers generally
that need have any fear of any part of
the army being used as a constabulary
f,rce. Had there been any desire to
overthrow liberty hy means of the
army it would have demonstrated
itself during the war when there were
sometimes as high as ~ million of men
under arms. Those persons who are
making this outcry against the govern
m4nt and are trying to disarm it of the
means of enforcing the laws on one day
Of the year are not the friends of liberty
much less friends Of popular free gov
ernment. They have never distin-
guished themselves except as the very
worst foes of liberty. Unless history
is un:ru. this nation owes its birth to
an army, as we'll as its rescue from
destruction in its ripper years. 1t is not
much to the credit of the Democratic
party that during tn. war to save the
Union, the army was denounced quite
as bitterly, as the little army Of 10000
men is denounced and vilited to day
by the same party. If tLey fear the
army to-day, much more did they fear
it during the struggle for national ex-
1istence. We are willing to grant that
modern Democracy has no great reason
to revere and and love the army. They
may fear the army very much on the
same principles that vicious school
boy fears the lash, and he who deserves
punishment fears it more and has a
holy horror of the means made use of
to punish him. If the liberties of our
nation are overthrown, it will be done
through Congress as the chief agency.
The government is so mild and benig
nant that the people left alone by their
leaders will never rise up against it,
and if the liberties of the people are in
any manner abridged, it will be done
through the agency Of Congress.

SENATOR BAyARD generally reminds
, the public when he expresses his views
upon any question, that he is actuated
by the highest considerations OF pa
triotism and public duty. The infer
ence is plain that he would scorn to
stoop to any trick to benefit his party,
promote his own political prospects or
add to his individual fortune. His in
fluence for good, however, does not
seem to be felt by the mass Of his par
tisans in our State. The great wrong
of inequality of representation is
continued, the assessment laws, made
for cheating the State out Of revenue
and poor men out of their votes, as
we'll as the old slave code, are perpetu-
ated, and their speedy abolition are not
looked for. 1t is surprising that such
conscientious man as our honorable
Senator can repress his condemnation
of such enactments or consent to profit
by them. Thus far we have not heard
that he has advised any change of our
laws or in any way favored a reforma-
tion of the wrongs from which our
city and county suffer. Should his 81
lence continue in regard to different
abuses we must conclude that his
claims of honesty aud independence Of
party dictation are merely assumed for
the accomplishment Of particular
purpose, and have no solid or real
foundation.

THE Philadelphia Sunday "Press'
(Democratic) says:-''It is our private
conviction, which we don't mind max
ing public, that the gods wish to de-
stroy the Democratic party Of Philadel-
phia, for the said alleged party has
gone mad. 1t is behaving as though a
man should hitch a team of fiery horses
to his head and another to his legs aud
tell the prancing steeds to "go!" The
Democratic party of this city has live
ly team pulling at each end of it, and
the benefit to the party is not discern.
able to the naked eye. That is good
way for a party to win weakness and
defeat. Victory does not come that way
The Republican party looks on, and a
broad smile of satisfaction overspreads
its beaming face.'

IT IS SURPRISING to note the great de-
ference shown to President Hayes now
by the Democrats, since they have
found out he has some back bone. 1t
is no longer "EIis Accdency," or ellis
Fraudulency," but even Proctor Knott
says ..Mr. President" and Senator
Bayard is most obssqulous to know
which kind Of an appropriation bill
will receive his sanctum. Verify, times
change, and men change to suit them.
