In the superior criminal court in Boston,
last week, the right of the BARRIERS to ply
their trade on Sundays was established.
About the first of June an old Sunday law
was put in force in Boston to close the bar
Der shops. This was done on the complaint
of many BARRIERS, who found themselves de-
prived Of their Sundays rest. But the pro-
prietor of several shops, connected with
hotels, refused to obey the law, and was
prosecuted. Friday his case went to the
jury. 1t was a test case, and the judge dealt
with general principles in instructing the
jury. He held that shaving is a work of ne
cessity and charity, if done in proper man
ner, and that the barber is justified in doing
it on Sunday. The jury deliberated two
hours and half and they too concluded that
shaving is an act of necessity and charity,
and brought in verdict ofnot guilty Some
of the BARRIERS are much elated to think that
there is no law in Boston to prevent them
working all seven days in the week.

The case Of Mr.. Crtting. the American i'm

The case of Mr.. Cutting, the American inn
prisoned at Paso del Norte in Mexico, is not
one that calls for public sympathy, even if it
demands the interference of our government.
Cutting published paper in the Spanish
language at Paso del Norte, and when a
Mexican named Medina undertook to start
rival sheet Cutting denounced him as
fraud. For this offence he was arrested and
carried before a Mexican court and COM
PEELED, he says, to sign reconciliation
document the nature of which is not ex-
planned, but which was probably retrac-
ton. No sooner, however, was he released
than he assaulted Medina again in his paper,
reiterating his first charge and alleging that
his retraction was procured by duress. He
was again arrested and imprisoned. He was
offered his liberty on bail, but refused it, and
appealed to the United States government
Our minister to Mexico made peremptory
demand for his discharge, but at last ac-
counts it had not been complied with, and
the Mexican government was said to be mas,
sing troops at Paso del Norte with the ap-
parent intention of resisting any forcible at
tempt to liberate him. If the facts are cor
rectly told, Cutting seems to have been VIC
lating the laws of the country where he has
voluntarily dominated himself; and about
the only claim he has upon the United States
government is that it shall see that he has
fair and speedy trial.
1t is not probable that Congress will heed
the appeals Of the New York papers to do
something this session for the Grant monu-
ment fund. There is before the House of
priation of $25, 900 to aid in the construction
of monument at Riverside Park But
when General Grant was buried in New
