The Grant managers affect to sheer ct the
possibility of the Germans going back on
their favorite, and say they can easily bring
influences to bear upon them to force them
into line. Perhaps they can. Nevertheless
we are of the opinion that Mr.. HeiIman, Re-
publican member of Congress from Indiana,
gave fairer expression to German senti-
ment when he said in recent conversation:
My parents left Germany because they did
not want their sons to be soldiers. They were
tired of strong paternal government, and ]
have no doubt thousands, yes, the majority, OF
the Germans left the old country for the same
reason. Now they will vote against any ten.
dency in that direction in this country.
There is no reason to suppose that the
Germans will be privy to any scheme that
will tend to create system of government
here from which they fled but few years
ago.

FUNERAL SERVICES.

Action of the Ministe rial Association of
st. Paul.
The Ministerial Association of this city
held meeting yesterday, and discussed the
question of funeral services. At the close of
the meeting the following recommendations
were approved unanimously:
The Ministerial association of St. Paul, with
the desire of securing uniformity of practice
in the conduct of funeral services; but more
especially of saving those who may be bereaved
needless expense, confusion and pain, propose
to the public the following suggestions:
First-We recommend the separation of the
services from the interment. Whether the
public exercises be observed at the house or
the church, the attendants should be dis
missed at their conclusion. After they have
withdrawn the relatives and other special
friends of the deceased may quietly bear the
body to its resting place. undisturbed by the
presence of onloOkers and unembarrassed by
the confusion which has frequently attended
the saddest hour of their grief.
Second-In order the more completely to
provide for the fulillment of the first recon-
mendation, we suggest that carriages be pro-
vided for none but the special friends above re-
ferred concluding (of course) the pall-bear-
ers and officiating minister, if he desires to go
to the cemetery (sec. No. ~; and further, that
tuc SIcAI tAptuSc NulCu udb Detu ueTetOlOIe
incurred IN decorations and otherwise, be for
their sakes to whom it would be great burden,
avoided.
Third-We recommend that 10 remarks
whatever be offered at any funeral service, as
they cannot add, in our Judgment, either to
the solemnity of the event, the influence of the
service, or to the consolation of the afflicted.
Tho word of God, appropriate hymns aud
prayer, if judiciously selected and rendered,
are invariably sufficiently impressive and COM
forting, and cannot be improved.
Fourth-lt should not be demanded of the
minister that he always go to the grave Some
times other duties will be neglected if he does
SO, and in cities SO large as ours has become,
the calls upon our pastors being many, they
will often be unable to do more than conduct
the services. Let them consult their own con-
venience as to the interment.
Fifth-We request that there be no funerals
upon the Sabbath, except when it is impera-
lively necessary.
These suggestions of course, apply only to
the decease of private citizens. In case of the
death of those who have occupied conspicuous
public stations. some notifications may be
made. But we suggest that the rules with re-
gard to the funeral itself be observed if posi-
BILE in all instances, and whenever it appears
best, to review the deeds of some distinguish
ed or useful person, that memorial service be
held at another time.
We believe that these recommendations need
no farther argument or explanations; and we
leave them with the public, hoping for their
general adoption.

COURT CALENDAR.


Business Transacted by the Several Legal
Tribunals Situate In st. Paul Yesterday.
The district court resumed business at 10
o'clock yester Jay morning, Judge Brill pre-
siding.
The sheriff reported the venue of thirty
five petit jurors, the names of whom have
been published in previous issue of the
GLOBE. Two of the jurors were reported as
absent from the city, and an attachment was
issued for George Griggs, who failed to
answer the summons.
Michael Kelly, indicted for larceny from a
dwelling, which consisted of going through
the apartments of Fort street boarding
house, was arraigned again at the request of
MIR. Mccarthy and withdrew his former plea
of not guilty. He then pleaded guilty and
counsel explained that it was his first offense,
accompanying the explanation with a plea
for clemency. Several witnesses testified to
his former good character, and sentence was
withheld for consideration.
The demurrer in the case of John Sulli-
van, indicted for malicious mischief, which
consisted of smashing plate glass windows,
was next considered and sustained on the
grounds of technical error in the Indictment,
which mixed the separate offenses of break
ing windows and defacing dwellings. Couu-
sci asked for the prisoners discharge, but
the court referred the case back to the grand
jury.
The case of VIM. Jones and Edward Hen
Messy, indicted for highway robbery, which
consisted of garroting o man named John
Nusbaum, was called for trial, the following
being sworn in as Jurors: JIG. HinkeI,

guilty and entered plea of guilty. The
trial of Hennessey was then proceeded with,
and after hearing the testimony of half q
counsel the jury retired, returning in five
minutes with verdict of guilty.
THE GRAND JURY.
The grand jury entered the court room at
II o'clock and returned two indictments
against Levi A. Cooley, who is charged with
the larceny of sum of money from young
man named Church, the alleged crookedness
growing out of horse trade, full particulars
of which have been given in the GLOBE.
An attachment was issued for the arrest
of Cooley, and during the afternoon he was
arraigned, pleading not guilty to both
charges. The grand jury reported no bills
against VIM. J. Briggs, G. G. Dahlstram and
r. IL. Lewis, whose ofenses were investigat-
ed and not considered strong enough to war
rant any indictments.
The prisoners were ordered discharged
from Jail.
Bartlett Wilson. who pleaded not gailty,
on Saturday, to the Indictment for robbery,
which consisted of going through West
Third street saloon to the tune of number
of cigars and quantity of booze, changed
his plea to guilty, and was given three
months in the county jail.
The court adjourned until ten o'clock this
morning.

LACY'S Lay.

Judge FiinS Locates 1t In the County Jail
for the Next Thirty Days.
A pitiful story of domestic infelicity was
unfolded at the police court Yesterday morn
ing, going to show that where the keystone
of love is taken from the conjugal fabric the
remainder of the structure is bound to fall.
Mrs. Jennie Lacy appeared against her
migrate husband, Joseph G. Lacy, and the
story told was that of jealous chickering's,
eliminating in disgraceful exhibition or
display of the most brutal and despicable
passions.
The wife and mother may or may not be
as bad as pictured by the testimony of her
husband, certain it is that the unhappy out
come of her ill starred choice might be pal
liation enough for almost any misconduct.
The twain were united in marriage several
years ago, the fruits of which is witnessed by
tho presence of three or four bright looking
children.
The husbands brutality and the alleged
misconduct of the wife eliminated on Sun
day evening, when the neighborhood of
Third and Exchange streets was aroused
about midnight by the screams of a woman
and the mingled curses of her husband, an
account of the arrest appearing in yester-
days issue of the GLOBE.
At the police court yesterday, Mrs. Lacy
appeared with her face and form bruised and
blackened from the result of the terrible
struggle.
She testified to having been attacked by
her husband and brutally beaten, process
of treatment of which he is said to be par
ticularly fond.
The prisoner told an entirely different
story. He has suspected his wife of infidel-
ity, and, upon finding her setting on a
strangers knee, had warne d her not to re-
peat the dereliction. On Sunday night she
had been out with disreputable characters,
and returned about midnight beastly drunk
BE arose to let her in, when she commenced
to abuse and strike him.
He attempted to ward off the blows, and in
SO doing caught her by the hair, when she
fell against the bedpost and bruised hel
face.
The court didn't take much stock in the
latter story, and the prisoner was committed
for thirty days.

LINES

Suggested by the following incident: A few
weeks since young married daughter of one
of our old settlers died in this city, leaving two
little girls mOtherless, one an infant, the
other two years old; recently q letter draped in
mourning was received by the grandparents
(who are raising the little ones) from beloved
sister of the deceased, breathing words Of deep
sorrow and sympathy at the sad bereavement,
the little two-year old, named "Mabsl," tax
ing the letter in her hands and raising it above
her head, looking intently az though she saw
her lost mother, cried out Mammal Oh,
my! and this without one word of the letter
contents being read in the child's hearing:
Sweet mother spirit didst thou hear
Thy darling Mabers infant cheer?
Her little fingers deity clinging,
To the dark lined missive bringing
Burning, tears from sisters love,
Whose only hope is heaven above.
The sombre striped messenger of pain,
Said Mabe's loss was heavens gain,
With infant hands raised up on high,
SIZE softly murmurs Mamma! oh my!
Dear spirit mother, vert thou 30 near.
To hear thy darling's prattling cheer?
Who can say that thou were not
Watching around thy cherub's cot?
Inspiring her infant mind to see,
Thy sainted face in fond memory,
Oh spirit mother, guard her still,
From every woe, and every ill.
Dear child in after years perchance,
These lines should meet thy woman glance
Remember her who gave thee birth,
And from the spirit land came forth,
To guard thee with holy charm,
And keep thee safe from every harm.

LET THE LAW BE KNOWN.

The people of the State of Maine are to
be congratulated on two matters in conrec-
ton with the imbroglio that has been in
progress there for several weeks past. The
crisis has passed without any actual blood
shed-though there is very general i'm
preston that little blood-letting might
have done some good-and there is vet a
resorts for the Fuslonists through which
they can procure judicial decision on the
questions that have been in issue. Every
man of sense knows that the opinions of the
supreme judicial court are of no binding eff
feet. They are wholly extra-judicial, and
while to certain extent they may be regard
ed as suggestive, they are in no sense man
datory. We therefore are of opinion that
though the Republicans are in full posses
sion of the State government, the Fusionists
have not yet done their full duty. In fact,
their war upon usurpation should be lust in
its incipiency.
The first duty of the Fusionists should be
to contest all laws which the usurping leeis.
lature may enact. There are methods by
which their constitutionality can be tested
not only before the partisan tribunal of
Maine, but by appeals to the supreme court
OF the United States. Az at present consti-
tuted the latter tribunal is but little less par
tisan than their brethren in Maine, yet they
are far better qualified to pass upon ques-
tons of constitutional law, and are removed
from many of the influences that have sur
rounded the Maine judicial court They do
not depend for their tenure of Office upon
the caprice of electors, and can deliver an
unpopular opinion without fear that they
will be relegated in consequence to the
shades of private life. There are some men
sitting III that court, too, who will not hesi-
tate to express dissenting opinion if they
honestly think the facts and the laws will
warrant it, and it has often happened in the
past that these dissenting opinions have had
more influence upon the public mind than
the majority or partisan opinions.
AT any rate, the Fusionists
owe it to themselves and

occasion will permit to justify the course
they have pursued.
The Republicans have claimed, and the
Maine supreme court has sustained that
claim, that the laws are of no effect-that if
the law requires that votes shall be cast and
returns made in q certain manner, those
votes must be counted no matter whether
the law is obeyed or not. 1t is in effect a
statement by the highest judicial tribunal in
the State that the constitution and laws were
binding only so far as the citizens choose to
obey them, and that any violation of them,
no matter how grave, does not carry with it
punishment. Such theories are destrue-
tive of all law and government, and if Der
mitted to go uurebuked will result inevitably
in social and political anarchy. Every law
abiding citizen is vitality interested in having
such pernicious doctrine overturned, for
it jeopardIzes the lives, liberties and proper
ty of the whole commonwealth. We trust.
therefore, that ceaseless war will be waeed
