If there is any particular for tho existence
of Sumter Club In Brooklyn, and If it must give
dinners and extend invitations SO widely
aud invite newspaper publicity it would
probably show little better that 1t deserves the
name it assumes if il remembered that there are
surviving just two of the officers who were will
Major Anderson in Fort Sumter during the historic
bombardment. 1t might have been civil enough to
extend invitations to General Doubleday and to
General Crawford when it was straining things TO
invite Mr.. Deecher

The Legislature will resume to-day Inc
senatorial situation and the Senate dead
lock remain about the same as last week.
The knowing ones pretend to assert that
the deadlock will be broken to-day, but 1t
is pretty safe to say that the man who
knows nothing at all about it knows just
as much as the man who thinks he knows
all. There seems to be only one thing GER
tain about the whole matter, and that Is,
that the warning Democratic factions are
positively sure never TO agree. Hence one
of three things may happen FIRST, the
fourteen Democrats may throw their votes
to some one of the Republican Senators IN
harmony with their views on certain meas
ures. and try to get enough Republican
votes to elect him Second, the read-outs
NAV vote in a body for the Republican
nominee: and third, the Republicans may
vote for Senator Knight and end the mat
ter. Quien sabe?
The Senatorial deadlock is receiving close
attention throughout the State. AS to The
consistency of reading Democrats out OF the
party, and then calling them boilers II they
do not vote for those who have just been
engaged in the kicking-out process, the
Grass Valley Union (Dem.) says: The
Examiner calls the five Senators boilers
who are voting for Senator Knight for
President pro tenn of the State Senate. As
the Examiner has contended that these men
were read out of the party by the Stockton
Convention, it is not logical in CHASING
them as boilers"
The Grass Valley TIdings DEM, speak
ing upon the same subject, says: The
Legislature has not organized, and there is
little prospect of its doing SO. The five
read-out Democratic Senators vote for their
man, Knight, for President pro tenn; the
fifteen blood-bought and pure Democratic
Senators vote for Del Vale, and the twenty
Republicans hold to Whitney. No cleo
ton; no organization for business The
State waits and suffers, for there is some
legislation necessary There ought to be
one of those five read-outs brave enough to
do the State service, regardless of a party
squabble and vote for Whitney and so get
to work OF course there is no necessity
for the Senate to have President pro TEN.
1t is only place of honor and of no use.
But the Senate will not get to work until
such an officer is chosen. Therefore we
say that one of the five should disclose a
broadneSs of forehead sufficient to cause
him 10 vote for Whitney. That vote need
not make the read-out Democrat q Repub-
lican, for he need never again to vote with
the Republicans. 1t is for the benefit of
the public, and we would, if we were q
read-out Democratic Senator, vote for
Whitney

LOCAL INTELLIGENCR.


The arguments in the cases of A. ID
Bulger and b. W. Cavanaugh, upon habeas
corpus, before Judges Mcfarland and Van
Fleet sitting in bank, were concluded at 10
o'clock Saturday night, the Court holding
a night session for the purpose of closing
the case. At the conclusion of the argu-
ment, the Judges held a brief consultation,
on the bench, and after a few moments
Judge Mcfarland proceeded to announce
the decision, giving short oral opinion
He said this case had excited considerable
public comment, and no little excitement,
in fact the alleged seduction OF any young
lady aiways arouses public indignation, and
on account Of the Importance OF this case
the Court concluded To hear it in bank
Under the provisions of the habeas corpus
act the Court has authority to examine the
testimony for the purpose of asccrtaining
whether there is probable cause for the
holding and detention of the petitioners.
While 50 holding the Court would not
disturb the order of the committing magis-
trate if any probable cause appeared by
the evidence, and that ordinarily the Court
on habeaS corpus would not even examine
the testimony critically. In this case,
however. from the testimony, which had
been read III its entirety TO the Court, and
from IHc prOSeCulT1X own statement, 1t
does not appear that any public offense
has been committed. Certainly there is
nothing in the evidence that looks toward
the crime of rape. As to any otfense under
Section 266 Of the Penal Code, that cannot
be, none of the elements of that crime
appearing and the case of the People VS.
Rodriguez, 10Th California settles that
part of the case.
1t is true the testimony shows q violation
of well-recognized moral principles. Yet
it is not clear that even if there was a
statute in this State making seduction a
crime, this evidence would warrant u
holding. Courts must deal with the law as
they find it. There is no law in this State
against seduction, except so far as relates
10 remedies in civil actions. The moral
sense Of the community has not impclled
the Legislature to make it a crime and
Courts can recognize as crime only such
conduct as the law declares to be such
Whether seduction should be made a crime
Is matter that addresses itself to another
branch of the government, and the wisdom
Of sIch legislation rests entirely with the
legislative department. As the case pre-
sents no probable cause, it is ordered that
petitioners prayer be granted and that they
be discharged.
Judge Van Fleet, in a few remarks, re-
viewed the case, and concurred in the de
cision of Judge Mcfarland. g
The case Of W. ?. Emery, arrested with
BulgeT and Cavanaugh, is set for examina-
ton in the Police Court tomorrow, but it
viii probably be dismissed, and there IS not
apt to be anything done in the case of l.
TrainUr, who has avoided arrest
