RATHER A FORLORN HOPE.
The Section of the statute Under
Which Jones and Treseder
are Liable.

The point made by the attorneys, yes
terday, in the Jones' Treseder bribery ex-
animation has been greatly magnified.
Some persons have made themselves be-
lieve that the fact of Mr.. Franks not
having been duly appointed Deputy
United States Marshal till the day of the
second meeting between himself
and Treseder and Jones will
figure with much importance in
the trial. This will prove an
extremely fragile foundation for any
erection Of hopes; and for fear the two
interested parties should build up any
such phantom and afterwards suffer the
disappointment that is inevitable the
DEMOCRAT, who believes in defending and
sympathizing with The friendless and un.
fortunate, publishes the following statute
under which the charge was made; it is
section $3.50, of the Revised Statutes of
the United States:
every person who promises, offers or
gives, or causes or procures to be promised,
offered or given any money or other thing of
value, OF makes or tenders any contract,
undertaking, obligation, gratuity, or security
for the payment of money, or for the de-
livery or conveyance of anything of value,
to any officer of the United States, or to any
person acting for or ON behalf of the United
States in any official function, under or by
authority of any department or office of the
Government thereof, or to any officer or per-
son acting for or on behalf of either House
OF Congress or of any COMMITTEES of either
House, or both Houses thereof, with intent
to influence his decision or action on any
question, matter, cause or proceeding which
may at any time be pending or which may
by law be brought before him in his official
capacity, or in his place of trust or profit, or
with intent to influence him to commit or
aid in committing, or to collude in, or allow,
any fraud, or make opportunity for the COM
mission of any fraud on the United States,
or to induce him to do or omit to do any act
in violation of his lawful duty, shall be pun
ished as prescribed in the preceding section -
The preceding section" in referring
to the punishment OF offenders, says they
shall be
"Fined not more than three times the
amount of money or value of the thing so
offered, promised, given, made, or rendered,
ana snail be, moreover. imprisoned not more
than three years."
We have no disposition to pass prema-
ture judgment on this or any other case
at law, but feel compelled as conserva-
tor of the public veal to discourage any
false and delusiye hopes which can
bring only disappointment and heart
burnings.

Temnlc of Honor "Surnrlsc.o

About fifty persons assembled at the
hall OF American Temple of Honor No. 8,
last evening, by a significant invitation.
Shortly after their arrival the doors were
thrown open and the party escorted into
The hall. where very tempting repast
was spread, intended as "Tit for Tat
for the surprise entertainment given by
the lady members of the Order Just three
months ago. Ever since this surprise
last October there has been growing
disposition to reciprocate, and this was
accomplished last evening in an exceed.
ingly pleasant manner. The entertain
ment was made interesting by speeches,
songs, readings and rectations, and closed
with feeling that the surprise" had af-
forded enjoyment to all present.

submitted this morning. Messrs. Ben
Sheeks and Theo. Burmester occupied
much OF the time in reviewing the ex-
ceptions that were taken to the former
trial, and w. ii. Dickson replied very
fully to the arguments. The decision,
which it is expected will be rendered to,
morrow, will be anticipated by great
many who are acquainted with the facts
