TIE LOTTERY TRI1LS.

Judge Cowing fixed yesterday rule for the pun
ishment OF voators of the lottery laws. which is
likely TO prevail for some time. He fined all
subordinates or mere employees of lottery dealers
where the charge on which they were tried or on
which they pleaded Culty-and it is worthy of notice
that only one foohardy wretch vcntured to go be-
fore "A jury-was their first offence. All who
admitted second offence were sentenced to i'm
prisonment The Court as Judge Cowng observed
is not one for the collection Of revenue and mere
fine is penalty which the accused usually laugh
at for the simple reason that somebody else pays
it. Tie person who pays is the real culprit but lie
is never tried
And herein lies the grave difficulty in the
matter The real criminal is never reached
The tool is caught and fined. The
mastcr-thc real crminal-pays the fne
and the tool returns, has already re-
turned. to the same occupation. He has been put
to "a little Inconvenience, but his pay has gone on
meantime, and his fine has been met. His only
fear is that if brought up again his second sentence
will be one of imprisonment. This Is calculated TO
deter the smaller dealers and their employees and
Judge Cowing's rule is an admirable as far IA
il goes but unhappIy it does not 90 at the alter
rightly nor cffectually. That not his fault it Is
that of the prosecuting attorney.
Picking of tie vdcttes and sentnels of an army
never wins battle. The Indictment and convic-

was thrown OF. and to the chagrin of Mr.. Til
dcn's friends, Mr.. John Kelly came upon tue
PLATFORM and after accepting the allegiance
which with much bOister"us demonstration
was tendered him. offered his old opponents IN
the most patronizlng manner his forgiveness.
1t must he said tor the Ant-Tammany Demo-
Gratis that they did not at first seem eager for
this sort of reconciliation. 1t went somewhat
against their stomachs to have this man, who
had botcd from their Convention and defeated
their ticket, patronize and pardon them. 1hey
sulked and were sullen for little while. When
ii came to ratifying the nominations, they did 1t
" ON their own hook leaving out Mr.. Kelly
and Tammany. The latter paid little heed 10
the contemptuous treatment of the Tilden fac
ton, but held themselves together and waited.
Little by little it dawned upon the minds OF
the Tilden men that Mr.. Tilden was a by
gone, and that much life was left III John
Kelly. Little by little they began to under
stand that Mr.. Kelly had votes in his hand, ana
that those votes were essential to Democratic
success. Mr. Kelly knew it all the time, and
was only waiting for them to realize 1t. Then
they remembered that Mr.. Kelly was stub
born man. and they began to consider how TO
approach and concliate him. So negotiations
were opened. During their progress the Irving
Hall people have been eager and concliatOly;
Mr. Kelly dignilicd and firm though benignant
He has presented his demands. With very
little hagglng over them they have been
granted. And now Mr.. Kelly, restored to the
regularity which year ago he scornfully
flung in the face of the Syracuse Convention,
restored to his Boss-ship of the whole party,
again the leader of the party which he has
snubbed dciied and defeated, reinrns IN
triumph from State Convention of the old
sort, in which he sat in the chief place. Let

The " Harmony Convention of the New
York Democracy which was held yesterday
was caricature which must Eayc amused
even those who sat for the picture.
The reality of the harmony was "a
well illustrated by the refusal Of
the Convention to give the contesting dclega-
tions from fifteen Assembly Districts even the
poor favor of a hearing. as by the cpthets
of "thiefr and dummy" grOwled back
and forth between the Tammlny and
Irving Hall delegations, though at a
safe distance of course. No doubt it was
highly conducive to harmony within the Con-
vcntion to decide that the fifteen con-
tested delegations should not have their
eGuaninlity disturbed by even a hear
ing accorded to the contestants; but the
feelings of the latter, who have been treated
with greater indenity than any Convention
of recent memory has shown to members Of
its party, can be more easily imagined than
described.
The truce between Tammany and Irving
Hall became a erotesque aflcctation of friend
illness when the arm-in-arm and hand-shakng
business was done. Self-rcspect seems to be the
first thing a Democrat is ready to surrender at
the demand of his party. Mr. Keilys complete
triumph would ALLEVIATE many of the
men who have opposed him. if they
were not disciplined Democrats and ac-
quainted with crow. Beyond this, it is
simply to be said that the Convention adopted
an unimportant platform and followed the
example of the Republican party in taking
its candidate for Chief-Judgc from the
bench of the Court of Appeals.
