THE RISKS MEN Rim.

The story of the late frightfu murder in Boston
is full of warning and is in fact, tragic appeal to
the cOmmOnest kind OF sense, like the plain, rOsac
novels of De Foe or the domestic dramas of Lilo,
who wrote George Barnwellp and Fatal Curios-
ity." Mr. Frye. the gentleman who was killed,
though pOsS ssed of considerable wealth and living
in most respectable quarter and in good style.
seems to have had liking for low company. Moth
ing but this could have betrayed him into inviting
the barber who shaved him. of whom he knew little,
and the BARRIERS friend, Of whom he knew less, to
come TO his home for the purpose of playing bill
lizards and drinking wine. He was living alone, his
family being in the country, and might
have supposed that he would have the danger
of thus exposing himself the chances of robbery
and murder. Nicolo was an Italian and Ardito was
a Greek, and everyone knows what Italians and
Greeks of the lowest class are yet the poor old gem
tleman appears to have acted with utter faulty,
showing these assassns about his house. and giving
them every opportunity of first dIspatching and
then p underng hun which they could possibly
have asked for. He has paid dearly for this care
lesness and for the eccentric tastes which led him
10 seek such society; and he is the first one who
has SO suffered, though not many have suffered SO
severely.
The police annals Of New-YorS are not wanting il
Ike cases. Men of respectablhty or of quasl-re-
spectaoity come here from the country or from
other cities. On the railway or the steamboat they
become acquainted with sbarpers of sufficiently
pleasing address and of engaging voubhty.
who upon arriving in New York, volunteer
to show them the lower hons of the town, who
drink with them IN this that dangerous hole, aud
who end by stripping them Of their pocket-books
and their watches. There other men, residents
of tue city or the country, who actually tempt bur
glars to despol them. by keeping valuable property
upon their premises and leaving it entirely unpro
tected or insuiliciently So Mr. Frye might have
been killed and robbed, even if he had not asked
the murderrrs aud robbers 10 his house. As the
matter really stands, his deporable lack OF pru-
dence is an aggravation. All the mouLly and pro-
verbal wisdom OF the world about keeping good
company has received new and much needed illus
trati0n.

A recently published decision of the Su-
preme Court reads like an echo Of the war
times. Older readers of The TRIBUNE remem-
Der when the question of the authority of
military commissions, provisional courts, and
the like, was one of the exciting topics of the
day. No one can say how soon it may again
become so. The Supreme Court has revived

niles of stones and brickbats, while the men
were intrenched in the streets below behind
cannon loaded to the muzzles with nails,
scrap iron and several hundred feet of small
chain. After such elaborate preparation, IL Is
natural that the Irish should feel impatient
of the restraint of the military, though the

sufficient to cool the ardor of the French.

The two Democratic Committees which have
been excavating the political systems of
Massachusetts and Rhode Island have con-
cluded their labors and retired for rest and
meditation. If they have discovered any
thing of political value to their party, they
have refrained from exposing it to the public
gaze. They went out in search of Republican
bulldozing in sufficient quantities to offset the
exploits of their own party in the South, but
the YazOo brethren have made a report which
speaks a good deal louder than theirs will.

been a very lively battle had it not been
checked by the timely Intervention of the
military. Both the Irish and the French were
fully prepared for slaughter, as our cores

and both were eager for the fray. The prepar-
atiOns of the Ifish were peculiarly character
