There is a strange case now on the
Richmond county Ga. court docket. An
lrishman several years ago opened lit
tie bar-room on the Augusta and Savan-

presented her with diamong ring. The
young man died before the nuptials were
contaminated. and the mother made de-
mand upon her sons affianced bride for

most blue blooded landlord in England
Mr.. Phelps might have been the leading man
in Vermont if he had wanted. His father was a
senator more than dozen years, and the son
was by far the most brilliant youth of his day
in the State. Had he chosen to fall in with the
now undoubtedly be as renowned, and for much
the same reasons, as Mr. Evarts. But, for rea-
sons peculiar to himself, he became allied, so far
as ne could interest himself in politics, with the
Democracy, and so raised up mighty barrier to
any public preferment. Since then he
has been the finest orator and greatest
lawyer in Vermont a man of infinite
Wit and resource, and, among aristocrats most
popular. but among the sturdy Republicans of
Vermont the personiication of brain power
with none Of the desires Of most men to win
public favor. His homo in Burlington is a
marvel of taste and elegance and in it he en-
joyes the choice circle of the small coteries Of
wealthy and refined men of that city Brought
up in the most democratic way, educated at
Middlebury College, Mr.. Phelps seems like an
exotic in Vermont, SO little has he in common
with the people of that State. In 1880 the 'unter
rlhed' nominated him for Governor, but he seemed
to regard that more as bother than a compli-
ment, and paid no attention whatever to the cam
pagn beyond visiting General Hancock socially.
Outside of that experience he took no interest in
the matter. He never mingled in politics, for
he has little sympathy with our manners and
methods in such things, often declaring that he
prefers the English system. AS result the
Vermont Democrats though otter boasting of
Phelps's alliance with them, regard him as en-
tirely outside their sphere. His selection as
minister has not the slightest reference to them,
the President choosing him more because of his
New York than Vermont friends.

For centuries it has been contended that cough
medicine to be effective must contain morpha, opium
other equally dangerous drug and to-day
nearly every cough mixture in the market has for its
base of these deadly posons. purely veg
etabe and at the time eficacous cough has
been considered mpossibility. The harmful and
at times fatal results attending the of morphia
and opium cough mixtures are of common occurrence
everywhere, and in every part of the Union deaths
have, according TO the testimony of physicians and
coroners resulted from the of these dangerous
preparations. 1t is for this that medical
thortes and leading public speak enthusiastic
ally of the importance and value of the discovery of
Red Star Cough Cure. Governor McLane and At
torney general Roberts, of Maryland; Mayor Latrobe
and Postmaster Adreon, OF Baltimore and other we'll
known officials of Federal State and municipal gov
ernments have publicly certified to the harmlessness
and marked efficacy of Red Star Cough Cure. Every

A POINT IN THE MACKIN CASE.
How Judge Gresham Might Possibly Have
Seen the Other Side of 1t.

Chicago Inter Ocean.
1t is not little singular that there should
have been no introduction into the record in the
Mackin and Gallagher the part of the
prosecution of proof that the object of the com
mission of the crime was to affect the election Of
a member of Congress- to-wit, United States
senator. The statute could not have more ex
plicitly defined the exact object, the sole and ex
elusive object of the acts committed by Mackin
and Gallagher than by the of the words
affecting the election of member of Congress"
The term member of Congress embraces a rep
resentative in Congress or a senator equally.
It's use shows that Congress itself intended to
cover such acts as would affect the election
either of senator or representative.
Congress was aware, however, that fur
Their election by the Legislature of State
the balot-box could affect the election of a
senator, but it is never necessary in criminal
cases that the criminal shall supply all the links
of conduct essential to the contamination of the
purpose of crime before crmlnality attaches.
If the act of Mackin and Gallagher were one
step in plan looking TO the election of sena
tor, then it was an act affecting the election of
a member of Congress-
In fact, as all the world knows, the sole object
of the crime was to affect the election of q
Democrat to the United States Senate by con-
verting tie in the Legislature into ma jority
of one. In fact, as all the world knows had the
crime escaped detection, or had Governor John
NJ. Hamilton issued certificate OF election in
turns of the board of county canvassers, then
either Morrison, Harrison, Black, and proba-
bly, Harrison, would at this moment be sitting
in the United States Senate
If we are correctly informed. however, this
state of facts was not proved offered to be
proved on the trial Of Mackin and Gallagher.
but counsel for the prosecution relied
on the point that the valid ballots, having been
DESTROYED or changed by forgery, left nothing on
which to count the vote as cast for Adams
against Altgeld. But Judge Gresham's com
ments on the hearing of the motion for writ of
error show that he does not concede that the
lawful votes indicated by bogus ballots cannot
be recognized as lawful votes so far as they are
known to be copied from genuine ballots, or
rather the genuine and unforged ballots will be
deemed to be before the election judges, and
before all courts of law which may be called to
act in the case, so far as their true nature can
be made certain by the testimony. 1t would
Seem that in the point of view opened by Judge
Gresham the case for the prosecution on the
question of Jurisdiction might be stronger if the
exact political result designed to be effected by
the crime had been put in evidence. At least,
the responsibility, il it had been offered and
excluded, would have rested on Judge Blodgett.

over stretches of aand where the scintllations of
the minute particles glistened and panied the
eye with their constant fiic kering in the sun
light At other times we stepped on strong
ground, where quarries of Jasper marble, ala
baster and agate ran in veins towards the Nile
In the afternoon the outer edge of small
simeon burst over the desert, and particles of
sand were dispersed around Us with disagreeable
fury. My mouth and nostrils became filled with
earthly atoms and my eyes blinded with irri-
tating dust But the worst of it did not come
near us. Then we came to a country that was
rolling in its formation. Tamarind and ebony
trees grew on every side, and the land changed
to a light gravelly character. AT last we halted
at the wells of Ell Howeyet. ffty-fve miles from
Korti. The wells were empty! The men mad
been buoyedu up with hopes; now they were al
most in despair. They gathered around the ex-
hausted wells like wolves around carrion. They
were ravenous for water For few seconds 1T
looked as if all Discipline would be broken
through. In few hours we knew that there
would be some water in the wells. The men
who had left Korti the day before us had ex-
hausted the supply, and if we waited till evening
relief would come, oozing slowly from the
Shiny soil The men still crowded round
the wells when suddenly the buges rang out
the ''fall in" In an instant everv man was
in his place and resignation and discipline were
visible in the faces of men who were suffering
tortures. At last the water came. 1t was the
color and had the consistency of weak pea soup.
The men drank it with relish. and cheerfully
took up the line of march again. Next day we
hoped to reach the wells at Abu- Halfa, and so we
did. A squadron of the Nineteenth Hussars led
the way, and nearly emptied the wells before
the main body arrived. But bubbling spring
was found at the bottom. The riches of Com
stock lode or the wealth of all the Indies could
NOT be as welcome as the gurgiing stream that
sparkled in that mornings sunlight The fighting
men were served first, but the chattering Copts
and Somaules dug up the sand with their hands
and Tapped the water that collected in the holes
they made with savage relish The horses
plunged to reach the wells, and camels broke
loose in their efforts to share the feast while the
satisfied soldiers took up their place in the line
with their appetite appeased Then we soon
reached Gakdui where we rested, watered our
horses and made preparations for anything that
might happen en- route for Metemneh.

believed they could, but when we reflect
that during the quarter of century
that they were isolated from the world
they were fast gaining strength, both in mem
bers and fanaticism. it is not strange that they
have been able to withstand the assaults of civ
ilization for fifteen years The first really earnest
operations against the church were undertaken
in 1870. / regard the end as near at hand.
Practically, it is here now. There has been an
almost entire suspension of polygamous mar
riages, and the men who have more than one
wife dare not live openly with them. Indict-
ments have been found against many of the
leading men, and the grand jury is steadily
grinding the polygamous grists that the mar
shas and district attorneys pour into the hopper.
A dozen or more polygamists are in the peniten-
tiary, serving out sentences awaiting trial; as
many more are out on bail until the courts find
time TO attend to their cases; half hundred
influential persons-the men who furnish the
brains and guiding wisdom for the masses-are
in hiding, virtually fugityes from justice, and,
quite as serious anything else, is the fact that
there is widespread and loud discomfort among
the people, especially on the part of the young
men and women who, while they love and respect
their parents, abominate the religion that makes
them criminals before the law, and compels the
practice of fraud, deception and the arts of the
sneak to avoid the penalties of the statute.
