for. Mr. Higgins with no fse whatever
not even his expenses paid, argued the
case before the Supreme Court aud
gained his point, the Conrt setting
aside the verdict and setting the case
back to ats original position, before any
jury was chosen. In the mean time the
day for executing Neal had been fixed
twice until the decision of the Supreme
Court set aside the sentence. The re-
cent trial and acquittal of Neal, is so
fresh in the minds of the people that
we need not repeat its distinctive char
acter at length. Suffice it to say that
an unusually intelligent jury was cho-
sen, which after careful hearing Of the
evidence, and all the facts presented,
Rendered a verdict of acquittal, and
Neal is now enjoying liberty, the same
as scores of white men, who were
cleared for similar crimes, when the
evidence against them was much strong
er. But we are told that the jury was
picked. Suppose it was, was it any
more of a picking than was exercised
in any other case of equal importance?
In fact are not all juries picked ? Were
not the juries that tried the recent libel
sIits in which the Every Evening was
party picked? Is it wrong to reject
men who are believed to have prejudged
case, or whose minds would be so in
fuenced by personal prejudices as to
prevent them from rendering an inn
partial verdict? If Mr.. Higgins was
permitted to have his own way in the
selection OF a jury, who allowed him to
have it so? Where was the Court and
the States Attorney? To censure Mr..
Higgins is but to censure both the court
and the prosecuting attorney. Let the
people who are called upon to resent
the verdict of tbs Neal jury reflect be
fore they act.

1lTHE MORTALITY LIST for the first
v eek in the new year is alarming large
in the absence Of epidemies. The
total number Of deaths reported is
thirty.two Of which eight were the
victims of consum ption. Consi iering
the changeable nature Of the climate,
outside Of consumption the death rate
Is not larger than usual. There were
five deaths in Second, Fifth, and Sixth
wards, but more are reported from the
Eleventh ward. The marriage list
only reached four, but the fact that
thirty. four births were reported shows
that the steady increase of population
is still to go booming UPWARDS.

ATTORNEY GENERAL Brewster q
rutiled shirt front is creating quite a
stir amongst the social quid-nnncs OF
Washington. The New York Herald
in abiding to the subject says: "that
as this is a free country any man may
wear what he pleases provided he is
decently clad. The attorney genera,
in his antique and picturesque attire,

the eye to rest upon than any of the

lions Needed.

lions Needed.
II is understood that Chief Engineer
of the Water Works, H. B. McIntire
in his forthcoming annual report, will
recommend an extraordinary appropri
alton for the Water Department, il
view of the vast number of buildings
that have been erected and are ready
for occupancy, but which are located
on streets to which the water pipes
have not been extended. In some in.
stances there are rows of new houses
extending whole square which are
completed or will be by the 25th of
March, but are entirely without water
facilities, and the worst is the water ap
preparation is expended, except merely
sufficient to keep up repairs until the
first of July, If An extraordinary ap.
preparation is not made gr,at inconvs-
nience and pscIniary loss must ensue
10 the owners of such houses, and be-
sides a check will hs given to building
operations for six mon TBS to come. Con.
tractors and builders vii not build
houses if there is no reasonable pros
pect of them being supplied with water
Tor six months or probably year after
hey are built. Mr.. McIntire recogpi.
zing the Importance of the case I'LL
recommend an extraordinary appropria.
ion, and it is hoped the City Connect
will equally recognize its Importance
and not hesitate to grant the relief 50
much needed. At the rate at which
new buildings have been erected last
year it cannot be expected that new
building operations will be confined to
the streets on which water pipes are
laid, but in the very nature OF things
new streets must be laid out and occu.
pied.
Council would be remiss in its duty
were it not to keep pace with the spirit
of public improvements. The extension
of water pipes is something that cannot
result in loss to the city, though just
at the time the water rents may not be
sufficient to pay the interest of the
expended, it must pay in a
short time, and in some instances
where there are rows of houses now
without water the interest would be
mora than paid from the start. Our
citizens might as we'll wake up to the
fact that Wilmington is growing at the
rate of 5000 additional population a
year, from which it may reasonably be
concluded that the same amount Of
money that met the demands Of a city
Of 10000 population will not meet the
demands of a city reaching out towards
30, 600 Of population. Economy 10
but when economy is
carried to such an extent that whole
rows of houses cannot be supplied with
water for fear people that cannot see the
world more may growl about it, then 1t
becomes false something like.
