Parnells eyes nearly put out by lime

the striking incidents Of the Kilkenny fight
on Tuesday. The contest between the two
factions seems likely to turn upon the COM
paratiye strength Of the heads of the mem
bers of the two crowds. The questions at
issue appear largely to have been lost sight

There is rumor which wears an air Of
probability that the counsel for Sawtelle
will seek to save that worthy's neck by pre-
senting evidence that the murder was COM
mitted in Maine and not in New Hampshire
1t is to be hoped that the evidence will fail
to convince the jury. Maine has all the
murderers shut up at Thomaston that the
people care to support,and besides Sawtelle's
crime was so deliberate in its conception
and so brutal in execution that there is a
feeling. shared in by many who do not ordi-
narily look with favor on capital punish
ment, that the New Hampshire mode of
disposing of murderers will better subserye
the ends of justice in his case than
the Maine method.

1t is refreshing to see jury obtained in
murder case the incidents of which have at
tracted wide attention and been generally
read, without spending several weeks ran
sacking the highways and hedges for men
who had never heard Of it. 1t is safe to say
if Sawtelle had killed his victim in Illinois
instead of New Hampshire the first OF Janu-
airy would have passed before twelve men
had been obtained qualified under the law
of that State to hear the evidence and re-
turn true verdict 1t is safe to say too that
the jury when obtained would have been no
better and no better qualified to render
true verdict than the one which was selected
in New Hampshire in less than half day.
The notion that maniis.nct competent to
hear evidence and weigh it impartially
simply because in reading newspaper &C.

as to the guilt or innocence of the accused
isl absurd. and most of the States have
discarded 1t. All of them ought to.

one objection raised to the elections bill
is that the board Of canvassers is Likely to be
partisan. Very true, but what of it. Is
not the canvassing board of every Southern
State now partisan? Is not every man who
S'anus az the polls and has charge of the
paiio' oox partisan Of the most violent
Oemocratlc strife? A canvass of the votes
py thelr Democratic partisans is now the
foundation OF the certificate of every Demo.
cratic member of Congress from the Soptb-
ern States. Yet we never heard Nortborr
democrat raise any objection to these certif.
Gates because OF that fact. But the idea
OF appointing another board of which tho
majority shall not necessarily be Democrats
appears to them most outrageous proceed.
Ing. Now the naOduS 0perandi under the
election bill is simply this The State can
vassers count the votes and return to the
governor the result as by them determined
on the strength Of this result the Governor

canVassers also count the votes and return to
the chief supervisor statement of the result.
