Currie, who murdered the actor,
Porter, in Marshall. Texas. some time
ago. was acquitted last Saturday. on the
ground OF insanity. The result OF the
trial IS q farce en- justice. Here a mis-
cradle rough enters a room, and without
p~roveoation kills an innocent man. He
is tried and found to be insane. or to
have been insane when the CRIME was
committed, and. therefore, he IS turned
loose on society, an 8 man. with
the instinct of the more powerful wild
beasts forkilling. He will murder some
other person, and according to this
course of reasoning will have to be
cleared and released to kill some one
else. 1t is not only in Texas that such
things happen, but wherever they occur
they are q scandal and a shame. 1t Is
not the FAULT OF the law, it Is the fault Of
the juries. What we need is a public
sentiment in opposition to crime, and
a determination on the part OF the peo'
pie to protect life and property by legal
methods.

HURRAH FOR HANCOCK & ENGLISH!

From the IEtelligencer Extra, June al
The national democratic convention
at Cincinnati met, Tuesday, June 22d,
at IL 40. p. ~, and was called to order
by Senator Barnum.

Given Campbell; resolutions, Joseph
Pulitzer.
The convention then adjourned till
10 O'Clock Wednesday morning.
The convention assembled Wednes-
day morning. Gen. Stephenson, OF
Kentucky, was made permanent chair
man. The only exciting episode was
the exclusion of the Tammany hall
delegation from New YORK, which had
never been elected and had no shadow
of a claim to seats. John Kelly and one
or two OF his %lieutenants made feeble at
tempts to stem the tide, but the feeling
of the convention was so largely anti
Tammany that they were futile.
At the afternoon session Hancock,
Bayard, Hendricks, Field and Morrison
were placed in nomination in eloquent
speeches, Mr.. Tilden's letter OF declina.
ton having first been read.
The first ballot resulted as follows
Field, Is; Bayard, 1884; Morrison, 62

The New York Tribune OF February
10Th, 1873, said: "James A. Garfield,
OF Ohio, had ten shares; never paid a
dollar; received 1929. which, after the
investigation began. he was anxious to
have considered as a loan from Mr..
Cakes Ames to himself. Well.
the wickedness Of all Of it Is that these
men betrayed the trust'of the people. de
ceiyed their constituents, and by evasions
and %talsehoods confessed the transaction
to be disgraceful." If the Tribune feels
= delicacy about printing its opinions Of
the Credit-M obilier when it was being
exposed, it need only turn over Its files
to the democratic press. No better

On January II, 1873, Mr.. Garfield,
before the Poland investigating COM
mittee made the following oath:--"l
never oqcned, received, or agreed TO
any stock of the Credit-Nlobilier
or of the Union Pacific railroad, nor any
diriaends or profits arising from
either of them" The committee be-
tore which this testimony was taken
was a republican committee. After all
the evidence was in and duly weighed,
and despite the fact that the
was disposed to favor him, Judge Po-
land said in his report, February Is,
1S73:-"The facts In regard to Mr.
Garfield, as found by the committee, are
that he agreed with Mr.. Ames to take
ten shares OF Credit obilier stock, but
did not pay for the same. MIR. Ames
received the eighty per cent. dividend
in bonds and sold them for ninety-seVen
per cent, and also received the sixty
per cent. cash dividend, which. together
with the price of the stock and interest,
left a balance OF 1929. This sum was
paid over to Mr.. Garfield by a check
on the sergeaut-at-arms. and Mr.. Gar
field then understood .;this sum Wds
the balance of dividends after paying
for the stock" This is the perjury
case in a nut shell. MIR. Garfield has
not vet been able, with all his ability.
to disprove the state Of facts, which, as
