REPORTED BY JUDsoN. GILLETTE

Acquitted of Murder.

The telegraph informs the world that
young Kalloch, son of e1-MayOr Kali
Loeb of San Francisco, who killed
Charles De Young, editor of the San
Francisco Chronicle, about a year age,
was acquitted after the jury had been
out "a hours. The verdict was received
with much applause, and when Kalloch
was discharged and got into carriage
to go home, an immense crowd took the
horses from the vehicle and pulled him
to his house, some three miles. The
same authority gives the comments of
the San Francisco press on the verdict.
The Chronicle thinks it a blot on the
fair fame of California. The Call
thinks it a condemnation of the methods
and character of Journalism. The Bull
letin thinks ameliorating circumstances
should have been made the ground fol
executive clemeney rather than acquit-
tai. The Post holds the result an as
sault upon the foundation of social or
der.
This is all no doubt very good. But
the public will not forget, what nc
doubt the jury had in their mind all the
time, that after this same Charles De
Young had heaped every opprobriou'
epithet he could command upon young
Kalloch's father, as soon as the elder
Kalloch returned the compliments up
on De Young IN kind, the latter lay il
ambush for his victim and shot hin
down without warning. To be SURF
Kalloch recovered of his wound, but il
was murder none the less. Here ii
where justice should have come in ant
punished the would-be assassin. Blu
there was nothing of the kind. DE-
Young was acquitted and then Kal
loch's son tried De Young's tactics oil
the inventor, and with better success
for De Young was killed in his Owl
office.
There are no apologists for young
Kalloch's course but some so-calle'
journalists should remember that per
sonal abuse is not journalism, and tina
children who play with fire are soone
or later sure to get burned.

Gov. Farnham's Fast Proclamation.

We know not the future. Seedtime
and harvest and the SHOWS of winter
have come and gone in continuous sue
cession and infinite variety from the
dawn of the worlds history until the
present time, yet no human foresight
can tell us that we shall again plant in
peace and quiet and reap in abundance
and contentment. We may hope so to
do but connections of the people, dis
turbauces in nature, mObs, strikes, riots,
tempests, hail, drought, flood and pesti-
lence may prevent. These Affections
no man can foretell although he may be
able to compute the motions of the stars.
If we rely upon human judgment alone
we are in despair. Our only hope is in
the goodness of the great Creator of the
universe, who cares for the bodies as
well as the souls of men. and who
shows himself in nature as he has re-
vealed himself in his word To him
let us turn in humble prayer, asking
that the blessings that have so long fol-
lowed us IN the past may be continued
to us in the future that during the
coming spring time, summer and au-
tumn, the earth may yield to US of heI
bounty in proportion to our industry
and labor that we may escape want
and famine, sickness and pain, pesti-
lence and the dangers of storm and
flood, and that abundance may reward
the labors of the husbandman, the
miner, the artisan and the thinker as
well as the worker.
That our people may offer sucl
prayers with concert of feeling, |, ROs-
well Farnham, Governor of Vermont
do hereby appoint FRIDAY, THE EIGHTH
DAY OF APRIL NEXT, as Il day of fasting
humiliation and prayer.
And on that day | recommend thai
all of the people of our state refrain
from labor, business and amusement
and meeting in their customary place:
of religious worship, there in prayer
and humility of spirit, and with sucl
restraint of the bodily appetites as hes
cOnduces to such frame of mind, they
implore forgiveness of their transgress
ions as indivuals and of the sins of the
state and of the nation, of him anC
through him, who alone is able to for
give sin, and ask that the new year ma,
look upon a repetition of the blessing
of the past

A Spectacle and a Moral.

The struggle over tho Senate offices
reduces the spells system to its last ab-
surdity.
The United States Senate is, with
one exception,-the British House of
Commons,-the most powerful single
legislative chamber in the world. Its
wide powers over laws, over appoint
ments and over treaties give it a unique
position among legislative bodies.
Among them all, it is the only one
which can pass binding law, in the
shape of a treaty, without the consent
of the other branch of the national Leg
islature.
1t is this body, whose minority has
dissolved its quorum to retain offices
worth $150,000 year which the MAORI
ty is determined to secure, even at the
expense of stopping all other public
business. The representatives of 80
states have actually locked horns over
a score of clerkships, all of which ought
to be permanent, and not one of which
should be in politics at all. Into the
most important of these places the re-
publicans propose to place a man who
three wears ago sent out assessment cir
culars to federal office-hOlders while he
was at his place acting as secretary OF
the Senate, and the democrats propose
to keep in all these offices men whose
sole claim is their party services.
For this dog fight over bone which
belongs to neither cur, the taxpayer
pays. Does the taxpayer like it'll Ii
not, let him insist on civil-service re-
! form-TSpr. Republican.

Troubles in the Cabinet.

There are rumors of trouble in
the new cabinet thus soon. Attorney
General McVsagh and Postmaster-Gen-
eral James have both got their backs
up,-the first at Stanley Matthews and
W. E. Chambers nominations, and the
latter because Merritt is removed as
collector of New York and Robertson
appointed. President Garfield cannot
please all factions, and the sooner he
takes a straightforward, independent
course in his appointments, in the inter-
est of civil service and all other reform,
the easier for him aud the better for the
country.
The latest Washington gossip is that
Blaine will bring about an exchange OF
places between Robertson and James
by which James will become Collector
of the port of New York, and Robertson
90 into the cabinet as Postmaster-Gen-
eral. 1t is believed this will placate
Conkling, giving him control of that
big political machine, the New York
Custom house, and also satisfy Blaine,
giving him another adberent in the cabi-
net. The same authority for the above

able to tackle. He was accused some
months ago of having stolen a boat,
and has been in Jail ever since, awaiting
the arrival of some possible interpreter.
Having apparently some natural idea of
his own about hdbeuS corpus, he very
deliberately broke out of iail-how, no
one seems able even to guess, and pro-
ceeded to strike out on 4 pilgrimage,
without a stitch on him. 1t took three
men all they could do to bring him
back again, and now the authorities
have got him, they don't what under
the sun to do with him. He is immense
ly strong, and evidently laboring I'M
der the impression that he has been
most unjustly treated, is about as dan
gerous as hungry lion. If they ever
do let him go, I'd rather be on some
other street at the time, for l verify be-
lieve he'd Iun muck and slaughter
just as many people as he could before
| being shot down like a mad bull.

April Weather.

The alleged weather prophet of Mon
treal gives the following programme of
the weather for April: There will be
sharp frost in the beginning of April,
with a snow fall on the 4th or 5th, but
the spring will open favorably, and
everything will be pretty well advanced
by April Is. Floods may he expected
in Chicago about the first week in April,
with high winds prevailing in the early
part of the month. Snow falls are
probable about April 5. Navigation is
likely to be open on Lake Ontario
about April Z. The St. Lawrence will
he open about the 9th or 1Ith, and the
first steamship will probably arrive
about the 18th or 18th. The weather
will be very stormy in the lower provin-
ces about the Goth, with very high wa
ter prevailing, but in the West, April
will be a dry month. There will be
warm weather just following the Goth,
ending in thunder storms on the oath
and 25th. Snow storms are probable
in the far West on the 25th and Goth,
and snow falls are not unlikely to oc-
cur in England at the close of the
month. The month will end wet and
cold, but, on the whole, will be like a
Nav month.

Collector Dana Bounced.

Washington dispatches announce
that John c. Stearns of Bradford has
been appointed internal revenue col
lector for this state, the place held for
so many years by Charles 5. Dana, for
merly of this place. Mr.. Dana has been
an efficient officer, and has had this fat
berth for long time, and has no claim
upon it of course. Mr.. Stearns tried
hard to obtain the place under the
Hayes administration, but was not able,
although he gave the collector and his
friends considerable anxiety. He was
more successful with President Gar
field. This is evidently an administra-
ton that believes in passing the honors
and the emoluments around. Mr..
Stearns will probably fill the office
well. He is what is known as good
fellow" He is a thorough going poll
tician, and an indefatigable wire
worker and trimmer. There are not
many men in the state who can pull
more strings during a political cam
paign and do more dirty work than
John c. Stearns; yet be averages well
with what are distinctively known as
the politicians of the state; and we be-
! lieve he is no worse than the average
politician" of the country. Neverthe-
less we believe there is higher type
and there was an effort made during
the last administration to bring this
other type to the front, but there seems
no great effort of the present admins
! tratiOn to keep it there.

Outrage by Burglars--A Plucky Girl.

Two burglars entered Thomas Egan's
house, l58 East Forty street
New York, Saturday night, and gagged
and bound Miss Nellie Cunningham, 10
years old, Mr.. Egan's niece, who was
alone. They then demanded to be told
where Mrs. Egan's jewels and money
we're, and, on the girls refusal to tell
struck her in the face. Still exaspera-
ted by her refusal to answer their ques-
ton, one burglar stabbed her several
times in the arms, face and hands with
pen-knife. The young woman be
came insensible, when the robbers, fear
ing that they had killed her, fed from
the house. Miss Cunningham was
found insensible and securely bound.
Yesterday she became partly paralyzed
and was unable to speak. Later the
police arrested John r. Camp, a man of
bad reputation, and Miss Cunningham
recognized him as one of her assailants.
They have clew to the other scOun-
drel.

II Senator Malone of Virginia oc-
cupied the entire session Monday in a
speech replying to his critics and pay
ing his respects to several Southern
Democratic senators. This speech had
been heralded beforehand, and hun
dreds of people were turned away IN
able to find standing room. 1t was a
dreary three hours reading of an unin-
teresting speech, entirely unlike Ma
hone in an off-hand squirt, as for in
stance when stirred up by that bourbon
Ben. Hill. Malone eulogized Virginia,
and punched Brown of Georgia and
voorhees, sharply, but on the whole his
speech was disappointment, and
nothing like the circus that his audi
ence anticipated. Exit Malone.

Just About the Size of It.

Chas. H. Cram, wealthy wholesale
shoe dealer of Chicago, a graduate OF
Dartmouth College, was shot and killed
in his own parlor Tuesday night by
young clerk, named Willie Seymour, IL
years of age, who was in love with
Hattie Cram, aged II years. After
wards, young Seymour shot himself.
Such tragedy as this seems strange,
especially in circles of refinement in
which all the parties moved, and goes
to show that young America needs a
great deal more looking after than he
is getting. If Hattie Cram had not been
allowed to have her own way to go and
come without the permission of her pa
rents, but had been kept at school and
at home, if Seymour had been looked
after as boys of that age should, there
would have been no such tragedy. Our
boys and giils are getting old altogether
too fast. They need to he kept back
until they know something before be
ing launched upon the world.-St Al
