NEW YORK, April 80, 1881.
When, but few days ago, the electric
wires flashed to this city, the narrowing
intelligence of the death of JOHN w.
ROBINSON, it was indeed shock and deep
regret to his many friends in the metropolis,
~Eo have known him so long and SO favor
ably. John W. Robinson vss az honest
man-'sGod's nOblest work" He was man
of unsullied and spotless integrity. In the
counting-room or on the public mart his
word wa. the equivalent of his bond. He
vas a man of public enterprise, and entered
with zeal into every measure which would
elevate the character II his State or city,
or promote the welfare Of the people, how
ever humble.
While the record of his life is not so
brilliant as some military hero or worshiped
statesman that flash their light across the
sge in which they live, it was so useful,
30 practical. so devoted to everything that
could aid. prosper and fosseE all the best
interests of the community in which he
lived, that we doubt whether any better
model of life well spent and duty well
dope can be held up for the closest imit2-
ti0n of those who may come after him.
Our symPathies go out 70 bis RereaFed

now they can see no compensation what

name. ONE WHO KNEW HIM.

A CONVICTED RAVISHER SAVED BECAUSE
THERE WERE NO NEGROES ON THEJURY.
WAsHIGToN, May "A decision was rem.
dered by the Supreme Court of the United
States to-day in the case of w M. Neal against
the State of Delaware, in error from the
Court of Oyer and Terminer, for Newcastle
county. Neal, who is a negro, was indicted
tried and sentenced to death by the State
court, for the crime of rape, on a white wo-
man. His appeal to this is based upon the
fact that the State court refused to grant a
motion made by him, that the indictment
and panel of jurors be quashed for the rea-
son that colored men were excluded from
the grand and petit juries, by which he was
tried
This court holds that the exclusion Of col
ored persons from Juries, which is complain
ed of in this case, did not as a matter of law,
result from the Constitution and laws Of this
State. The case, therefore, could not have
been properly removed to the Federal courts.
Since however, there was an improper e1-
clusion of cOlored men on account of-<ace,
from the jures by which Neal was indicted
and tried, the State court erred in refusing
to grant the motion of accused to quash the
indictment and panels of jurors. its judg-
ment is, therefore, reversed with costs, and
the case remanded, with directions to set
aside the Judgment and verdict, as well as
the order denying the motions to quaSh the
indictment and panels Of the jurors, and for
such proceedings upon a further hearing of
those motions as may be consistent with the
principles of the opinion Ofthis court JUS
tice Harlan delivered the opinion Chief
Justice Waite and Justice Field dissenting.

to the chair, and H. H. Hines acted as sec
rotary.
After the organization of the meeting

Jackson, on day to be selected, and devise
means for securing the passage by the next
Legislature OF constitutional amendment
prohibiting the liquor traffic in this State,
to be submitted to the people for ratification
or rejection.
Resotred, That it is not our purpose to in
terfere with political parties or their mans
agement, but we are sensible of the very
great harm done to the health property and
morals of the state, ~ the Increasing liquor
traffic, and are persuaded that the time has
come when all the good people of the State,
without reference to party affiliations, or
previous condition, or religious persuasions,
should combine to arrest the demoralizing
influences of the unwholesome traffic, and
demand that the Legislature shall afford
them an opportunity to suppress it by fair
vote upon an amendment to our Constitu
top.
