BOTH De JURE AND De FACTO.


HARTFORD, Conn, Jan. 5.-The Supreme
Court unanimously sustain, the demurrer of
Gov. Bu.keley, the hold over governor, in
the quo warranto suit of Morris, late demo-
cratic caauIdltl. The court says the de-
claratou of the result of an election is an
Indispensable iJunct TO the choice os gov
orpor as it furnishes the only authentic
evidence of an election. Cule,s the declar-
alton is made in way SO provided the pro-
cess Of an election is not complete.
Il is found in the case that there has
been no declaration 10y the Ge4eral Assembly
that the reiator mas been elected governor,
and 1t is not claimed that there has been
any equivalent act by any other authority.
IL follows that the relatOr, whatever any
future enquiry may show. cannot now Ia
said to have beeu elected TO the office of
governor, and that tho respondent remains
ie jure rs well IS de faclo governor of the
state. II is therefore the duty of all citi-
ems. OF the courts. OF all departments of tho
state government AMI ot both houses Of the
General Assembly to respect and obey him
accordingly.

an exhibition of courage and nerve
such as would have done credit to
Stanley in his most courageous
moments. It was a deed heralded
with no flourish of trumpets, melted
by no hope of reward or applause
from the glory loving world, but a
silent deed of pure self renuncIation
for the salvation of humanity, with
out even the certainty that humanity
would be in any sense the gainf for
his sacrifice. To the man capable of
