A Case Aes u.Iaksius,,.... .

James 6raves was con nvis.tad OF NInur
der In the first degree in Newark yester
day. On December 20 Edward Sotlen
aged IL years, while lighting a street
lamp on market street, was shot In the
back by Graves. The assassin, who IL a
bachelor, over sixty years of age, ( OF
merly lived In the house occupied by
the Soden family. Mr.. 70 len had hin!
arrested for creating disturbance, and
Graves then avowed that he would
avenge himself. Shortly after killing
the boy he said he would have shot Mr..
Soden also had he met him.
Graves defence before tn. Court was
insanity. DIR. William O'Gorman, a
leading physician Of Newark, testified
that, In his opinion, the prisoner was of
sound mind. Abner Kalisch, Graves
counsel, asked:
"Do you believe in insanity at all,
DGctOr?''
"Not said DR., O'Gorman, sin the in.
sanity that begins where man has his
finger on the trigger and ends when he
has shot his victim"
This answer elected loud applause,
which Judge Depus found it difficult to
suppress. In charging the jury, the
Judge said the law rejected the doctrine
of emotional insanity, which began on
the eve Of the criminal art asd cadet
when II had been consumnated. 1t re
garded insanity as a fixed disease OF the
mind. The doctrine of moral insanity
had, he said, been repudiaLed ~ hostile
to the principles OF law and the welfare
OF society. In order to be held RESPONSE
able 1t was not necessary that man
should have a mind wholly uninpaire,l
by disease. The mind might be 80 weak
ened as not to realize the enormity of the
crime, or might be so irritable through
a life of vi.s as to induce an undue re.
sentiment Of injnries, and yet the accus.
ed would be criminally Responsible for
his acts. To establish u defence on the
ground of in,anity 1t was necessary to
prove that the defendant was unable,
owing to disease Of the mind, to know
his crime is wrong.

One week More.

State election takes place next Monday.
There is only therefore one week in which
70 prepare for the struggle at the polls.
The time is short but sufficient if well
improved for The completion of all neces-
ssry preparations. We have the best evil
dence that republicans generally are wide
awake and active, nevertheless there will
be something for all hands to do this week.
there are some who are hating that need
words OF encouragement; others need to
be convinced and confirmed on particular
points; few may be thinking Of cutting
some name or names upon the ticket whom
q little persuasion may influence to carry
the whole ticket; absent voters are to be
brought home; arrangements made for
getting feeble persons to the polls; the
printing of votes with all names upon
them correctly spelled must be attended
to; these and many more matters will re-
quire hard. earnest, unremitting labor un-
til the polls are closed on Monday next in
the afternoon. Let the time remaining
be improved to the best advantage. What
your hands find to do do it with all your
might. As there will be no election next
year you can afford to do double work
this year. Don't neglect to secure every
vote

CAMP GROUND, Sept. 2.
Rev. Mr.. Handy of Dresden, was the
text being "For by grace are ye saved
through faith and not of yourselves
Rev. Mr.. Rogers of Brunswick, preached
at the stand this morning, taking his text
from Luke 20, rejoice because your
names are written in heaven The speaker
referred to the joys of life both physical and
intellectual, as being feeble and fleeing COM
pared with the joy that comes from a full
reliance upon the promises of God. Children
are joyful in the health of youth, or the &C.
quirements of knowledge. In maturer years
we rejoice in our children, our homes and
our possessions, but these joys are fleeing,
and the only Joy that abideth to the end is
the joy of the ransomed.
The speaker for the afternoon was Rev. j.
W. Hamilton of Boston, man of extremely
youthful appearance, but of such attainments
as to give him a wide and enviable reputa-
ton as one of the ablest speakers in the
sOSiSts VI "HlSu uS 10 q intIDbtT ldklDH
his text from Luke XVII 81, he proceeded
with great directness to the subject in hand.
pointing out that living as we do in a world
of sense we are prone to disbelieve what GU
| senses fail to grasp. Thomas, the disciple,
declined to believe that the risen Christ was
the same who had been crucified, until he
| had thrust bis hand into the wound in Jesus
| side. The speaker did not confine himself
| close to the text, but yet each sentence was
| replete with an important truth. The brief
| report which we are able to present must
| necessarily afford only detached sentences
which give but an imperfect idea of the
| sermon taken in its entirety. Gods word
gives us the light and His spirit the DISPOSE
ton to follow in the way of righteousness
God must instruct men to do right. Some
seek to make the kingdom of God material
| empire, and there are those who make the
mere going to church a merit, but they know
no more of Christianity than the Pharisees
The kingdom comes not to the carmel senses,
but when it does come we shall be able to
say 40 here.' and so there The sinner
holsters himself up with false righteousness,
but the power unto salvation is found only
| in the Bible. In this world if man has his
| heart right he is about right wherever he is.
When the kingdom of God is set up in
mans heart it brings not only peace, but
continuous and overlooking joy. When this
JOY, divinely given, is in a mans heart, he
knows it, and there is no chance for
| mistake. We need not trouble ourselves
about the locality of the kingdom Of God !;
where he is will Be enough for his disciples.
The Lord Jesus Christ does not mean to be
defeated in this world. The living. conquer.
ing power today is the Church Of God. Christ
is coming in the hearts of the people, and
he that doe,h the will Of the Lord abideth
forever.

DAMARIs -orTA, Aug. 81.
Hon. Warren II. Vinton:
Mr. DEAR SIR am in receipt ola commu
nication stating that you referred to me in
public address in Bath to day, in such man
~ to give the impression that, in q CONVEX
sation with yourself. had approved the indie
pendent political movement recently inagu-
rated in this State. This impression is so far
removed from the views which | entertain
and have freely expressed, that it becomes
my duty to take this method-the one open
to me, in the absence of any official commu-
nication from your meetng.-to correct it.
The only conversation | have had with
yourself on the subject, was a casual one Of
not more than minute in the railroad station
at Portland, in which expressed surprise at
the independent movement inagurated few
days before, of which had learned for the
FIRST time on that day, adding that the platform
adopted-referring to prohibition, civil ser
vice reform and economy--were good repub-
lican principles, which could be best advanced
within the republican organization.
The call for passengers to take the train
prevented me from further saying, what l
will now say to render it impossible for me to
be misunderstood, that in my judgment the
independent movement, so far as it takes any
republican votes, can have the effect only to
aid Gov. Plaisted and the fusion ticket, and
40 retard the progress of principid9 which the
A&pendents profess to I've in view. 1t
6sms 20 me that Gov. 0lisseds course in
declining to continue Judge Libbey on the
Supreme bench, which he has so greatly
honored, and his attempt to remove for polti-
cal reasons so excellent Reporter Of De.
cisions as Colonel Spaulding, as well as other
capable officials, during the terms for which
they were appointed, are in violation of
essential principles Of any civil service re-
form; and cannot. therefore, see how any
friend Of such reform can even indirectly
contribute to his reelection.
While cheerfuly concede to others the
right to judge for themselves As to the course
which they shall pursue, your reference to
myself makes it my duty to again state the
position which occupy, and to give the same
publicity to this note that has been given to
your references to myself.
With much respect,
remain your obedient servant,
