AUBURN, N. Y, Oct. 9.-Judge Day
has decided that the electrical execution
law is constitutional and remands Kemm
Ter to the warden Of Auburn prison
Krmmler's counsel says his case will be
appealed to the higher court.
The decision. which is quite lengthy,
says in part, that to every legislative act
there attaches a presumption of constitu-
t%iouality and the burden of showing it to
he constitutional is upon him who a~ssails
il. No sutn acts should be annulled by
the Judiciary az opposed to the funda
mental law. In a doubtful case, the
questions are whether the prisoner has
overcume the presumption that the stat
ute of 1883 in regard TO the infiction OF
the death penality provides a cruel aud
unusual and therefore unconstitutional
punishment, and tina: the force of the
electricity is sufficient to kill any human
subject with celebrity and. certainty when
scientifically applied cannot be generated.
Ia my judgement these questions must be
answered negatively Before the statute
can be ~abrogated there should be iudicia!
knowledge that the punishment therein
provided is cruel and unusual. There is
no such KNOWLEDGE and his contention
fails.

The Ep1scopaI Convention.

New YoRK, Oct. 9.-In the Episco-
pal convention the committee on ad-
mission of new dioceses begged to be
discharged from further consideration.
The memorial from Alaska and Michigan.
asking for the erection of a new diocese
within the limit of each of those states,
the committee could not recommend the
advisability of granting the request and
were therefore discharged. The report
of the committee on conference with the
house of bishops in reference to resolu-
ton s was then taken up. The resolu-
ton provided for recitation of the Litany
after morning prayer on Sundays,
Wednesdays. and Fridays and on Easter
days. The Litany might also be said
every day in Lent.
Several days z this resolution was
adopted by the bishops, but when it came
before the house it was rejected. The
committee on conference was then ap-
pointed. This committee recommended
that the deputies recede from their former
action and adopt the resolution. On a
vote the deputies sent back the resolution
to the bishops without approval. Reso-
luton giving clergymen an appeal out
side of their dioceses was tabled by a vote
of l64 to 40.

A railroad Rumor and its Denial.

CHICAGO. Oct. "a dispatch from
Milwaukee says: A private letter writ
ten by President Colby, of the Wiscon-
sin Central to the stockholders of the
Northern Pacific reveals a gigantic rail-
way consolidation that will connect the
two oceans and revolutionize railway
traffic. The consolidation of the Wis
sonsin Central and the Northern Pacific
systems to an amicable traffic agreement
was the first step. Henry Willard,
through an alliance with Charles and
Joseph Colby, has obtained a majority of
the stock of the Northern Pacific and a
sensation in railroad circles is promised
within the next ten days. Henry Vii
lard will be restored to the presidency of
the Northern Pacific and one Of the
greatest railway consultations of the
world will be consumated. Even now
contracts have been signed whereby the
Baltimore Il Ohio railroad is to enter in
to an agreement with the consolidated
Wisconsin Central and Northern Pacific
lines connecting the two oceans. The
Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe system is
also in the deal, reaching Mexico and
Southern California. Chicago will be
made the center for operating the three
great railway lines. The Northern Pa
cific will be extended from Puget Sound
and built into Alaska, making a continu-
GUS line from New York to Sitka.
BALTIMORE, Oct. 9.-Regarding the
great railway consolidation scheme re-
ported from Chicago, First..Vice President
Orlando Smith of the Baltimore & Ohio
said this morning: There Is nothing in
it," He believes the cause of the rumor
lies in the fact that while the Baltimore &
Ohio inspection party was in Chicago re-

What The Masses Of England Need.

LONDON, Oct. Gone good is likely
to result from the visit Of Emperor Will
liam to England recently. Among the
many questions he asked in his nervous
inclsive way, was one as to the percentage
of illiteratc persons IN England. The ap.
proximate estimate being given him. he
blunllv expressed his surprise at the exis-
tence of such a condition OF popular ignor-
ance in a country so wealthy and so high
in the scale of civilization. His comments
were repeated to the queen, who lost no
time in laying the matter before her ad
visers and requesting them to suggest a
remedy.
The persistent a~gitators who have for
so many years kept the question of free
schools before the public in spite of their
discouraging experiences, feel that at
last there is a prospect Of seeing their
labors crowned with success. but they
complain bitterly OF tie indiffence of most
people OF high position and the open hos
tiliiy of others who do not hesitate to pro-
claim education the parent of socialism
and anarchy and frankly say thu common
people know too much already.

Unjust Taxation.

1t Is unjust to tax the stomach with
burthens that it cannot bear. Many silly
people thus ~tyrannize that faithful servi-
tor until it rebels and Furnishes them as
they deserve. Dyspepsia is usually the
child Of g%astronomic Jolly, but whether
this or the natural associate of inherent
ieebleness from childhood, it is surely and
pleasantly ~rep,ediable with Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters, the finest and most
highly gastric tonic in existence. AS a
result of the tone impaired to the stom-
ach, and the increased activity of its di-
g~estive and assimilative action, insured by
the persistent use of this benign invigor-
ant. general stamina is augmented. the
nerves STRENGTHENED and tranquilized, and
a tendency to insomnia and hypochron-
drias is defeated. Billiousness, chills and
fever. rheumatism and kidney troubles
are conquered bv this admirable medicine.
