THE cause leading ito the massacre of eleven Italian prisoners at New Or leans, Saturday, an account of which appears on the first page of THE TIMES, is a reason able source of alarm, and impresses more indeli5ly upon the public mind the fact that the courts of our country are retrograding, and are not now, as in olden times, impregna- ble to the power of money, nor the ssourcc of swift and certain punish ment to the criminal who outrages the feelings of society by his unlawful deeds. This trial, according to our best information, was d farce. The law-Abiding classes had every reason to- expect d conviction of those arraigned for the assassination of Chief Henne- sey The verdict was an acquittal to all but three, and mistrial as to them. It is charged the jury was tam pered with-bought, sif you please and in the face of the most positive evidence to the contrary returned verdict of mot guilty out.of all req son. Is it sny wonder that the people, who had lwaited patiently, for the court tuavengessthe death of their gal lant chief of police, should, when the court was corrupted, take the law into their own hands and see it vindicated? Such course is most deplorable. but not so much so as the fact of it's neces- sity. Perhaps the excitement led the outraged populace too far, but if so the lesson taught is well worthy the mar tyrdom of even d larger number of victims-and more especially when they are taken from and sdecrease the number of the lawlessicharacters now extant in this country. The law must be simplified to be effective; courts and juries must be intelligent and above a price; crime must be punished acc0rl ing to its magnitude, and among all classes alike.

DEAR SIR have a few votes to cast 70,
one IF the young ladies', but as ] am moi
acquainted with any of them, do not know
who to vote for.
As many others are doubtless in the same
condition, l would suggest that The GA
zETTE publish short history of what tbs
girls have accomplished themselves.
I think those who have a record of talent
and good, hard work to back it, would be
willing to have it published.
/. for one, should hate to see Girl whose
only recommendation was beauty or a
pleasant disposition win the prize. Merit
should win, and outside of the personal
friends of each contestant, the mass of
voters want to vote for merit, and hope
the girl that wins the scholarship will be
the best. Respectfully, Hog.
P 81 heard that the father of one girl
sent word to brother of another that I'M
less ne could command certain number of
votes his sister had better Withdraw. l do
not think The GAZETTE wants it to be 4
Doodle affair. By that I mean mere oues-
ton of which side can put up the most
money. That would look as if The GA
zETrE was making money out of it, which 1
do not think they intend.
