There was an extraordinary case in one of
the courts yesterday, where two clergymen ap-
peared to testify in defence of the character of
a woman charged with keeping an improper
resort, and the witnesses against her were po-
icemen. From the fact that a considerable
fine was inflicted the Justices seem to have
decided for the policemen.
The Spanish Finance Minister makes great
promise of revenue reform. He intends to
pass a new tariff and to amend the CONNER
cial treaties so as to induce all nations to enter
into new ones. He proposes special privileges
for the colonies, but reserves the right to pro-
tect home industry. Unfortunately, the fulfil
ment of this scheme depends largely on the
condition of the Spanish Treasury, which is
In state of chronic embarrassment
The retirement of General Walker was, of
course fOreseen at the time of his election as
the head of scientific institute; but there
will be the same universal expression OF re-
eret as if his withdrawal were unexpected.
Fortunately, his work as Superintendent OF the
Census is so far advanced that it can now be
left to Others to complete, though it would be
more satisfactory to the public, and, no doubt,
to General Walker himself, if he were free to
remain in charge until the close.
Another case of "playfully pointing" gun
believed to be unloaded, with the usual result.
In Franklin. n. j., a young man picked up a
gun, pointed it at young girl, and snapped
the hammer The gun was loaded, of course,
and the girls wound is believed to be fatal.
There would be one way Of stopping this muir
derous folly, and that is to make 1t rule
when anyone, man OF boy, "points playtuily 1"
a gun which is not believed to be loaded, that
he shall be taken to one side and have gun
pointed at him seriously, as it were, which is
known to be loaded.
The Meline report, that terrible explosive
which was to take the roof off of the Treasury
Department, is out at last, and the Demo-
cratic Senators can now regale themselves
with its awful disclos ures. These, it viii be

CONSEQUENCE OF 4 FIRST CRIME. -
Bob O'Blenis, & character Of note in
st. Louis, is dead. His father vas s.
blue Presbyterian minister. his wife
was from q wealthy and respected
family, and his own conduct was
above reproach until he was about
forty. Then he killed an enemy in i
street encounter, and was sent to g
penitentiary for twenty years. His
wife bought a residence directly across
the way from the Gubernatorial houss
in Jefferson City, and labored with
Governor after Governor to obtain a
pardon. until the seventh granted
one. But O'Blenis did not return to
responsibility. He became a gam
bier and leader of gamblers, exert
lug considerable political influence
in st. Louis, and amassing fortune.
He died at seventy, soon after becem-
ing a seemingly devoted Christian.

A Heroine in Crime.

Three interesting oonvicts passed
through the Union depot last night
on their way to Jefferson City. in
charge of Sheriff John Davis oil
Wayne county, from which place
they hailed. The second prisoner
was young man possessing q fault,
less shape and q handsome face. He
looked cheerful enough to be plea
sure-traveler on q junketing expedi-
ton rather than a candidate for the
State Prison. He was implicated in
numbering man by the name of
George Macomb in Wayne county
last May, sentenced to term of ten
years. By his side sat the third, and
by far the most interesting prisoner
OF the group, young girl not over Is
years old. She was well dressed, and
wore sad resigned expression upon
her bea ltiful countenance that
aroused the pity and admiration of
every passenger in the Car.
What crime has this sad-looking
creature committed" was asked of
the Sheriff, whose sympathy appeared
to be equal to that of other passen-
gers.
The story of that young girl is
very remarkable. A number of years
ago she fell in love with the prisoner
sitting by her side and will, l think,
eventually marry him after they both
serve out their sentence. Their love
for each other is so true-that nothing
but the death.ot one of them. think.
will ever prevent them from being
united IN marriage. When her lover
the prisoner, Steigsll. was arrested and
committed on the charge oil murder
she stoutly protested that he was in
nocent. She used every means to
obtain for him his liberty, sat by
his side during his trial and stuck to
him with a heroism which only a
faithful woman. can display in behalf
of the choice of her heart"
"What is her crime?"
"Her crime is not so great as that
Of her lover, but one which the State

Steigsll had been sentenced, and after
all legitimate resources had been ex.
hausted, the girl then Set about 10
secure this liberty by resorting to
various schemes. come Of which
came near being successful. On a
dark night last June, at a late hour,
che purchased q number of knives,
files and other tools. Procuring a
ladder she then stole silently to the
rear of the jail and proceeded to carry
out her plans. Climbing up the lad.

beat hasty retreat before being dis
covered. She might have Effected her
escape had not the Eools, in striking
the floor Of the Jail. made loud
noise. This aroused the guard, who
intercepted her and prevented her
escape. She was tried for the oferse,
found guilty and sentenced to the
Penitentisry for the teru of ten years.
The Judge, owing to her age, AMI
appearance, took compassion on her
and reduced the time to one half. It
Is said that an effort will be made by
citizeus OF Wayne county TO procure
her pardon. "-St. Louis Republican,,

Perhaps the most fitting commentary
are the character of the late Gar, was the
floral wreath laid on his coffin by the
female doctors of st. Petersburg and else
where in Russia inscribed ITO the Gar
Civilizer" Whoever has read the novel "a
woman hater" has some knowledge of the
difficulty experienced by women in their
first attempts to secure medical educa-
tons, and to practice their professions
when acquired. The late Car was
the first potentate in Europe to allow
women doctors full privileges with men
in his domain and this act was but one in
accordance with his whole course. That the
women, who, under his progressive course,
had acquired rights that were denied to
them in the nominally more free govern
ments, should mourn his loss is natural;
and, if the Nihilists could see that in kill
ing him they had put away q man who had
at had at heart the welfare of his subjects,
and in their foolish fanaticism had destroy
ed king that was the best friend of the
people, perhaps some of the mistakes now
being committed by that class would be
averted, and better feeling among the
subjects would allow q better government
by the ruler
