NOT GUILTY.

The jury in the Chisholm murder case
brought in Q verdict Of not guilty, just
as II was expected that they would.
The trial was a mere formal farce, q bur
lesqus. and was allowed to proceed with
the result predetermined. The foul
crime, however. must always remain as
q dark. red. blot upon the name and
fame Of the section where It was com.
mittsd. They first took care to kill
his friends. then got the Sheriff to dis.
arm him and place him in jail where
they shot him down like Q wild beast,
killing bis son and daughter in doing so.
Yet the jury declare the murdersrs to be
not guilty. Why didnot the defense prove
that he killed his children and then
committed suicide2 They would. had
they deemed II necessary.

CHRIS. BLAIR.

The Carson papers speak Of the man
Blair now under arrest on charge OF
being concerned in the recent stage rob-
berry and murder near Nevada City. Cal
~iiornia, rs Chris" Blair well known
in this section. In none OF the accounts
Of his arrest in the California papers is
his FIRST name given. or any other cir
cumstancs mentioned indicating that he
is Chris. Blair. It is very possible that
il is he, nevertheless. Chris. Is q very
adroit thief aud frst.clsss burglar. but
never was considered q desperate. He
was o good waiter at the old White
House restaurant on South @ street,
Virginia, for two or three years. and was
about as gsntlemanly, mild.spoken .
young man as one generally comes
across, although he certainly did turn
out to DO q thief and burglar and find
his way to the State Prison. He was
discharged from that institution about
two years ago and went to Bodie. He
may have gone back to his old rascal.
ties and developed into q desperate. for
certainly his natural proclivities were
not good. Speaking Of this matter, and
corroborative OF the opinion that the
man under arrest is Chris. Blair, the
Carson appeal Of yesterday says:
James Edmonds. the burglar confined
in our Jail. q y that he met Chris. Blair
at Bodie . couple Of months ago, and that
tho latter proposed to him to SO to Nevada
county for the purpose Of waylaying Cum
mings. the murdered banker, knowing
that he frequently travelled in tho stage
with considerable gold. Edmonds says
that Blair had had that venture In his
minds eye for = long while. Our Sheriff
has advised the Nevada county authorities
Of this fact. and Edmonds may DO taken
there on behalf Of the prosecution.

An Eastern telegram announces that

Butler for Governor Of Massachusetts,.
The iudomiiabls Benjamin has been
figuring at that proposition for years
without success, and even now although
be has succeeded In getting that com.

He proposes making his fight this time
on State issues. avoiding any position Of
antagonism to the Republican party on
national questions. He expects to thus
hold together the mixed odds and ends
Of factions and parties which sup
ported him last year and felicitates
himself upon the idea that with
no Congressman to elect this year
the Republican vote will not DO as strong

forged electoral certificates is adverted to
very pointedly, showing that even if the vote
of Louisiana had been properly cast for Mr..
Hayes it was illegally counted for him by
reason of fatal informalities in the returns.
The extraordinary powers vested in the
returning board of Louisiana is the subject
of remark, and attention is directed to the
fact that that body practically has control Of
the elections, and by arbitrary decisions can
defeat the will of the people at pleasure.
This power is SO unrepublioan that it has al
ready created serious symptoms of rebellion,
and if not curtailed may lead to results not
at all pleasurable to contemplate.
The report as whole is calm, temperate
document, evidently matured after the most
deliberate consideration. 1t appeals to no
sprejudices. It simply presents facts that
have been we'll ascertained and draws the
conclusions from those facts that are newt
able. It will have salutary effect upon the
public il more ways than one. twill con-
firm the conviction of nine-tenths of the
people that Hayes has no just title to the
Office he holds, while showing that the policy
of the Democratic party has been free from
faint, and that that party submitted to a
manifest defraudment rather than jeopardize
the peace of the nation.

SPEAKER G1IMAN's bill providing for a
commission to decide upon the site and
make the preliminary arrangements for the
location of second State prison, met an
ignominious fate in the House yesterday.
Mr.. Gilman left the chair some time before
the report of the committee came up, and
when the occasion arrived did all in his
power to gain his point. He had previously
labored hard, and yesterday he made a
special effort to secure favorable action. The
sentiment Of the House was against him,
however, and his bill was indefinitely post
poned. The speaker can congratulate him
self upon having made a gallant fight against
great odds, and upon having received the
support Of very respectable minority of
the House,
