: The touching spectacle that was presented in
the parlors Of S1r. ADRIAN HEWITT the other
night when SAMUEL J. T1LDEN and PETER
COOPER, two defeated Presidential candidates,
equally infrm and superannuated, appeared on
Que stage, has not, we hope, been lost to the
public Though there was q slight resemblance
between the situation OF the two men, their
meeting was more remarkable even for the con-
t1ast between them Though PETER COOPER
was the candidate Of an insignificant and bad
party, aud received ridiculously small vote,
be came out Of the contest With his honor; aud
the company at Mr.. HEw1TT's house assembled
specially to celebrate his birthday. Mr.. TIL
DEN, Oh the other hand, received large popu-
lar majority OF all the votes cast, and represent
I'd party that advocated in its platform all the
cardinal virtues, yet he stood in that company
without the sincere admiration or respect of
siLgle member Of it. He had traded on his
reputation, and lost it.

Mr.. GEORGE ". JUI1Ax's article in the
March Atlantic on Our Land Policy" is, like
most Of bis writing, exaggerated and inaccurate.
He says, for instance, that ''land speculation !"
has wrought upon the country generally " evils
more enduring and widespread than those Of
war, pestlence, or famine u; and refers the
mischiefs arising from this source particularly
to the Northwestern States. Now, the truth is,
our land policy has not devastated the State Of
Illinois, for instance, as Mr.. JULIAN seems to
think it has. The Illinois Central Railroad was
worth TO this State and to the Northwest gen.
orally all: and more than all, the General Gov
ernmcut gave it. But it is true, as Mr.. JULIAN
says, that the system has been shamcfully
abused in the Far West, and especially in Cali
fornia. The benevolent intentions OF the Gov
crnmeut have been defeated there, and unscru-
pulous spectators have taken advantage Of
them to enrich themselves. The frauds hare
been outrageous in the case Of valuable mineral
lands; and there is rood sense in the suggestion
OF Mr.. JULIAN that the classification Of lands
separately and their sale according to the laws
provided for each class should be more rigid in
the future thar they have been in the past.
More complete surveys will be necessary, Of
course, in order to carry out this purpose per-
fcclv, and these would be very expensive. But
the expense would be more than made good BY
Increased proceeds from the sale If lands Il the
laws we're properly administered.

Conviction OF Lille Duer

The long trial at Snow Hill, Mary
land, which has excited so much inter-
est all over the country, has at last end
ed in the conviction of Miss Lille Duer
Of the crime of manslaughter. The
case from the first was surrounded with
mystery, but there was general feel
ing that Miss Duer would be acquitted.
The equality in social position of both
parties divested the public mnd as
we'll as the mind of the juror of that
bias which sometimes exists in cases
where there is great inequality between
the parties. Miss Duer and Miss Ilearn
were both young, possessed Of great
personal attractions, and occupied high
social positions in society, and between
them in that respect there was no diff
ference in public opinion. This brought
the case before the jury on its own mer-
its. 1t was conducted on both sides by
the ablest legal talents in Maryland,
and the most expert physicians were
called upon for testimony.
1t is doubtful if a case of more gener-
al interest and one more abl y conducted
ever was tried before any Court in that
State. All these circumstances combine
to show that the trial was fair one,
and the verdict of the jury was a Just
one. 1t is true that there was an un-
dercurrent that desired tho acquittal of
Miss Duer, principally perhaps on ac-
count of her youth, her beauty and
her social standing, but before an i'm.
partial jury it must be admitted, that
all these have been swept aside and
Justice blindfolded ip welding her
sword has let it fall upon the person OF
Lille Duer. To her the result is a sad
ONES but to others it is a lesson that
should result in checking the uprising
angry passions and feelings of jealousy
so often shown in the actions of one
young lady against another. For Lii.
lie Duer the future is dark and sad
though the punishment is nominal. Tc

be a burden but Mercy steps in with

A NOTE.
Too Much butcher.

There can be doubt that the public
mind is sick of hearing so much about
the butcher Watson scandal, and to all
but those whose morbid appetite Graves
such news the mention OF the affair has
become nauseating. We have been ap-
pealed to by some of our patrons to pub
lish nothing more about the mix-up, as
the more that is said the more compll-
Gated it gets. We have no particular
desire to publish such news, indeed we
rather dislike to do SO, but we publish
a newspaper, and matter that con-
Germs so many of our people as that OF
butcher, necessarily must encroach
upon a considerable space in our col
umns, as we'll as upon the patience OF
our readers. We hope, however, that
We shall receive no more communica-
tions upon the subject, unless such
communication contain something new
in regard 70 the case. As to the guilt
of Mr.. butcher and Mrs. Watson the
public mind is divided, with much the
heavier portion Of it against them, and
communications upon any question
which has already been so fully dis
cussed only makes a greater muddle.
1t is only bee we believe in giving
everybody and anybody a chance to be
heard, and right to state their own
grievances before the public, that We
have surrendered so much of our space
to communications upon the subject
The REPUBLICAN eing empba atically the
peoples paper, it cannot in spasmod,
ic fit of virtuous Indignation close its
columns against anybody, however
humble, who MY wish the privilege Of
making statement Of their grievances,
or of replying to matters which affect
their character and standing. 1t must
not be thought that We publish every
thing sent US about this unhappy ma;
ter. Much a, has appeared in our col
umns, much more has b-en consigned
to our waste tasket, or laid away with
the intention O. glancing over it at
some future time, but which future
time in our case with "scur multiplicity
Of duties will hardly ever COM. Hay
ing sail this much in justification o.
the course we have pursued, we would
say send US no more communications
on this vexed subject unless something
new has teen discovered which vii
throw some additional light upon it
and will serve t. clear up rather thai

TIE PHILADELPHIA " Evening Bulle-
tim say, General Crook informs the
War department that unless some
means can be devised for keeping white
men from stealing the horses of the
Sioux Indians who are living peaceably
at their agencies, an outbreak of these
Indians cannot be prevented. Thus it
may happen that the federal troops
which are compelled at the command

horses stolen from the Indians, will be
called upon to shoot down the Indian:
because they were not willing to regart
