nuln. She must again come on the

n. tcs in Strauder's case are these:
asirds charged with killing his wife in
lPdllsI? The original indictment was
had 90 the coth OF May 1872. It went
i I'D on the Sih Of May 1878 before the
GrSii Court Of this county, and a verdict
aauEsr in the first degree was rendered,
RdhsEH sCn,cured to be hing. 1t was
"a hken to the Court Of Appeals on a
nj o. sroh The court granted him q
HEHll, aud, as the previous Indictment
N lot sufficient, he was again, on the
AdOctober 1874, re-indicted. A new
~ Eu sworn in on the Cd Of Novem-
.Gdthat year, and on the 5tn the de-
G&1lI vas a second time pronounced
HEhthe drst degree, and subsequently
Ali.lci to be hung. Another applica-
ahrA writ Of error to the Court of
lEsilVn made by bis counsel but re-
M lad accordingly he was for the
s1a time sentenced TO be hung on the
nd January 1875. His counsel carried
y as to the Supreme Court OF the
'lfsd states, and obtained stay Of exc
'saaH until the point raised in regard to
u iag law could be examined and
A'sd upon by the court. Judgment was
saaH''d last winter, and our law exclu.
Rssored men from serving on juries,
" tsddsd to be repugnant to the con-
Etston anG laws of the United States.
IAia decision was officially made known
sAs Court oI IAppEals in this State in the
3al' course oI such procedures, and
=, 'a'dst received yesterday is the result
ea'ir action upon it.
S1adef's name is now pretty well EN-.
Assd IN the records Of the courts, high
o. I'E, and be is assured Of an immor-
4al Of lame in that line. There Is every
mon to suppose that he will at least
uase the halter, whatever else may hap
q 10 him. He may be again found
slV ol murder in the first degree, and
a sentenced, but the fair probabilities
s'saA' y such sentence will be commut'
aSa'ern Of years or a life sentence II
!. Pea'entiary. During his long i'm
SSanent he has learned to read anG
~, ,"e and otherwise educate himself. He
y intelligent man, and his conduct haI
i /. @ .uch as to raise him TO the position
