WHY HE HANGED.

Gen. Roger A. Pryor states that in the
trial Of O'Donnell everything seemed to
60 along well for the defense until after
the case was given to the jury, and they,
after retiring, came back for further in
structions. Their question showed that
they were favorably disposed to the pris-
oner. They wanted to know whether
evidence showing that Carey carried a
pistol and had drawn it at the time OF
the killing would alter the verdict.
Judge Denman, in a solemn and frightful
voice, said: eyes, gentlemen; but
where is the evidence There is no evi.
dence. 1t is an idle tale"
II do not remember the exact Ian.
guage. I do remember its import, and
the tone of voice. That answer was
wholly against English law. If an Ameri-
a Judge should make such a statement
to . jury, he would be impeached for it.
After that reply I lost all hope. 1t con-
victed O'Donnell."

~
Instead Of discarding Malone and
Riddleberger, the Republicans Of the
Senate have even gone out Of the way,
says the New York Sun, to confer on
them exceptional honors. This has been
at the expense Of honorable Republicans,
who were entitled to the first ~favors, if
there were any to offer.
Twenty-six Senators, representing one
third of the body, came in by election on
the 4th of March last, and took their
seats at the present session. OF this
number fourteen had been reelected,
and twelve were new Senators, as fol-
lows: Messrs. Bowen of Colorado, Gull
lom Of Illinois, Dolph of Oregon, Man
derson of Nebraska, Palmer of Mich
igan, Pike of New Hampshire, Sabin
of Minnesota, and Wilson of Iowa
eight Republicans; Colquitt of Georgia,
Gibson of Louisiana, Kenna of West
Virginia three Democrats and one
Repudiator.
Several of the eight above named Re-
publicans have held distinguished offices
in their own States, are favorably known
to the country. The usage Of the Senate
in the appointment of committees is to
give the Chairmanships to the expert.
enced members and to place the incom-
ing Senators ON the lower plane.
The Republican caucus gave the two
Regulators from Virginia the following
places:
Malone, Chairman of Public Buildings
and Grounds, member of Naval Affairs,
of Postofice and Post Roads, and Of Edu-
cation and Labor.
Riddleberger, Chairman Of Manufac-
lures, member of Railroads, Of District
of Columbia, and of Engrossed Bills.
These Senators are each on four i'm
portant committees, and each has q
Craftsmanship. Malone has been in the
Senate only two years, and Riddleberger
has just entered on his term of service.
MI. Bowen Of Colorado, the worthy sue
cessor Of the illustrious and much-orna-
mented Tabor, is the only other new
conner who received a Craftsmanship.
Cullom, who was Governor of Illinois;
Dolph, who beat Mitchell in Oregon;
Sabin, who overthrow Window in Min
nesota; Palmer, who unseated Ferry in
Michigan; Wilson, the foremost leader in
Iowa, and others were ali cast aside that
Riddleberger might be put in a promi-
nent position as the Lieutenant of Ma
hone.
The Republicans had a majority Of two
over the Democrats. But Malone and
R~iddleberger, by voting Independently,
could make a tie, and by that means
prevent an election of officers or stop the
passage of any desired measure.
1t may therefore be assumed that this
sop was given to the Regulators te
secure their votes hereafter. For that
object the Republicans have confirmed
the alliance made by the Administrator
with Malone. They are likely to pay
pretty dear for the Virginia whistle.

NO THERE.

Advocating the bill that was before the
South Carolina Legislature to regulate
divorces. Senator Henderson said, in the
debate on Wednesday last, that South
Carolina is the only State in the Union
that has no divorce laws. He favored q
law granting divorce on n ground only,
namely, adultery. Senator Howell said
that South Carolina was proud Of not
having a divorce law until the Republi-
cans enacted n q few years ago, which
was expunged from the statute books as
soon as the Democratic party took the
reins. The proposed bill was taken up
again on Friday last and defeated.
