In the case of the contested will OF the
late DR.. Darling before Surrogate Rol-
Inns, in New York on Wednesday, Mrs.
Amelia Delacroix in support of her claim
to the property left her by the will of Prof.
Darling, handed in batch of letters that
she claims to have received from time to
time from the Professor. In referring to
the letters during her examination she
said in an finland way, that she had
thousands of 'em." One was as fol

UNIVERSITY OF NEW YORK, 426 EAST TWEEN /
TY-sIXTH STREET, NEW YORK, Jan. 2, 1880. !

I have written this year. and send it to one

not be one moment out OF my mind.
The extract inclosed in the letter is from
w. Hepworth Dixon, in which he pictures
the ideal wife.
In another letter, dated Burlington, VT.
June 5, 1881, the Professor wrote:
Before left New York ! made Il will. in
which bcqueathed ali my property to you
and my desire is that you will always keep II
AS your own as long as you live.
This letter was written two days before

On the other side two witnesses testified
that they had known Professor Darling il

The full significance of the horrid Car
rollton, Miss, massacre OF ten negroes is
forcibly shown by an episode in the Sen
ate the other day. After introducing a
bill providing for national inquest by
the United States Circuit Court judge, Mr..
Hoar made the further allegation that in
all these murders and killings it always
happened-and he could not believe that
it was an accident-that white Democrats
were the offenders and black Republicans
were the sufferers. Senator Walthall of
Mississippi listened intently and when he
comprehended the drift of the matter sent
for his colleague, Mr.. George, and the two
conferred earnestly together The Senate
expected one of them to reply to Mr..
Hoar, but he finished unchallenged. The
silence of the two Mssissipians was dam
aging to their cause, but not more SO
than an attempted reply would have been.
The facts of the CHASTITY carnage are too
we'll known. The two gentlemen's con
stituents, however, will hardly thank
them for covering, even before the truth.

The Question of Open Sessions.

There is at least one good reason why
the United States Senate should consd
er nominations in open session. That is
that a session protesting to be secret,
whose proceedings and discussions are
continually land commonly incorrectly
reported by leaky senators, or guessed
out with greater inaccuracy by caves
dropping correspondents, is worse, for
all purposes, than an out-and-out open
session. The theory of discussing ap-
pointments with closed doors, as many
State senates and city councils are wont
to do as we'll as the United States Sen
ate, is that thus greater freedom is OBJ
tanned, and the true character of APP
pointeeS better ascertained. In business
life, man who wishes information from
another in regard to the character of a
clerk or boOkkeeper whom he proposes to
engage, does not commonly address his
inquiries or receive his answer through
the newspapers. He goes to the former
employer quietly and says; "Tell me be
tlOcGn ourselves, what sort of "A man this
clerk is and many man will tell
facts or give an opinion in such IA case
when he knows that the information
will be held confidential, which he would
not give if it was to be made public.
Senators, like other men, dislike to make
personal enemies and in many cases, ne
doubt they would let a bad nomination
be confirmed rather than arouse bitter
personal enmity by opposing it in the
presence of newspaper reporters or of the
appointee himself OF course every sucl
arrangement has its evils as well as its ad
vantages, and false testimony is doubtless
sometimes given in the secret session which
would not be given in a public one. We
should like to have the experiment tried
of opening the doors of the executive SEES
sions when nominations to Office are con
sidered though we are not sure how il
would work. 1t might at least however
disabuse some excellent people, whose
only idea of an executive session is thai
