The Democratic newspapers are
after Congressman HOuk and his
pension. The Courier-Journal says
his physician, DR.. Rogers, has
pleaded guilty of perjury, and that
the case is being investigated by
the pension Office. We do not
know whether there is anything
wrong in this matter or not, or
whether it is matter made up to
defeat Houk for Congress. If it is
the latter, it is dastardly mean
thing.

1t is not often in the history of
atrocious murders that such ample
justice has been done as In the
Ford Murphy tragedy. A more
cowardly, audacious aud malicious
murder was never perpetrated
than that of poor Cap Murphy by
the Ford brothers and their co.
conspirators. Being prominent
public officials and influential SO.
called politicians, it was believed
they would evade the law. But
their calculations were erroneous.
Two of the murderers sleep in
felons' graves; three of them are
serving their sentence In the penl-
Tertiary, while a number of the
witnesses who sought to save the
bloody wretches, by false swear
ing, have been convicted Of periu-
ry. The conviction of DR.. Dreifus
on Wednesday was the last of
these trials; he worked up the
perjury and has been justly con-
victed. No doupt Judge Baker
will give the gentleman the full
benefit of the law, since there was
not an extenuating fact in his case.
1t is true that number of wit
nesses testified to his good char.
acter aud veracity, but the real
truth is DR.. Dreifus is an errant
scamp, and before this trial we
never heard him spoken of other
wise. Were the administration OF
the law as unerring in all cases of
murder and ruffianism as it has
been in this, there would be a sen.
sible reduction of the criminal
classes.-N. o. States.

ANIce Question for Lawyers.

A gentleman who died recently
in Paris left q legacy of six thous'
and dollars to bis niece in Du.
buque, Iowa, who, it appears. died
about the same hour of the same
day. The question which died
Grst turns upon the relation of
SOAR to true time, aud must be
determined by the difference of
longitude. If the niece died at 4
a. m, and the uncle at 10 a. M, The
lustants of tber death must have
been identical. Assuming that to
be the hour OF the testator's dea'b,
if the niece died at any hour be-
tween four and ten, although The
legacy would apparently revert to
his estate, it would really vest in
her and ber heirs, since by solar
time she would actually have sur.
vived her uncle. - Christian at
