is probably no accident that this increase
Of immigration from the lowest point 1t

and increase Of imports as compared with
the year before. The immigration at New

Owing to the large increase OF German
emigration for ten years past the proper.

ties, yet she has but rarely-in but one or

cognition Of her noble services, but each
time has been met with refusal. Despite
this, however, there has been no breach
in the Republican record OF Jefferson. She
stands to-day with annnbroken column
that will this fall again be noted for signal
services in the struggle for victory.
But we desire to ask OF the State OF Ohio
to-day that our claims DO heard. For the
Office Of Attorney General, we have one

A Decision TINT Might Have Covered the
Marion County Case.


The United States Supreme Court has
Just decided that Union soldier cannot
be held to answer in the courts of seeded
States for any ofFense committed while a
soldier in those States-a decision that will
affect as manyns 40 criminals now confined
in different States. Pryor n. Coleman and
one Chambliss, members OF Union
cavalry regiment raised in Tennessee,
made n night raid on their own account
in 1865 on the still OF a Confederate named
Bell. His still was hidden away among
the mountains OF Knox county, Tenn,
and after the soldiers became heated with
his liquor, they demanded money. Bell
said he had none, and, when the drunken
pair began to beat him to make him show
where it was hidden, his daughter,
Mourning Ann, interiered in his behalf.
She was shot dead, and, knocking Bell
senseless, his assailants escaped. Cham.
bliss was shot down while re-
sisting arrest, but Coleman was captured
and turned over to the military authori.
ties, by whom he was courtmartialed and
sentenced to death. Coleman escaped in
to Kentucky, but, after nine years had
gone, returned to Tennessee, thinking
that his crime would be forgotten. He
was arrested and sentenced to be hung
by the Knoxville Criminal Court, the SEN
tence being confirmed on appeal to the Su.
preme Court of the State. His counsel
took the ground that the State Court had
no right to try Coleman, and finally the
United States Supreme Court has sus.
tanned the Federal Court at Knoxville in
granting writ OF habeas corpus, discharg-
ing the prisoner from custody. The final
decision, however, states that Coleman
was clearly guilty Of a murder Of great
atrocity, and he is handed over to the
military authorities at Atlanta, to be dealt
with as required by law. 1t is thought
probable, nevertheless, that the court-mar.
tails sentence OF death will be commuted
to life imprisonment.
