The Polk Verdict.

The newspapers Of the country, gem
orally, seem somewhat surprised at the
prompt and maximum sentence passed
upon ex.TrcNsurcr Polk, to-wit: I'm
prsonmcnt in the pcnitcntlary for twen-
ty years and fine equal to the amount
en- bezzled-$3G6, $40. But all of the
Press agree that the ends Of justice have
been met TINT the charge Of the Judge
and verdict of the jury were according
to evidence. Their surprise grew out
Of the fact that it has been so hard, for
50 long time in this country, to pun
ish any citizen standing SO high official
ly and socially MS did Col. Polk. In
fact, it seemed MS if there was immunity
flor distinguished offenders; but this
verdict says plainly that "big" men as
we'll ~ poor ones can be made to suffer
the penalty Of their crimes. Personally
we deeply sympathise with Col. Polk
but in dciranding the State, or attempt
ing to do 50, he added to the crime tn,
additional one of breach o
trust.
Mr.. Polk gave bond for $4,000, tn
amount required by Judge Allen, an'
was released on this bond to abide TN
judgment Of the Supreme Court. Blu
the outlook for the Colonel is far from
being rosy, or tingcd with silvc
lining.
