The senseless cry Of the down State
Democratic papers that the trial Of Sena-
tor r Il. kenrey, which is now taking
place in the U. 5. Courl, Is ono Of perse.
cution. has created false impression in
some quarters. The whole question hinges
on the fact, did Senator kennoy receive
sums Of money from William N. Boggs
knowing that lie could not have the
amounts OF money received from him from
time to time. II the Senator was Lenc-
nciary with the two otLey men, who, hav.
lug been tried and found gully, are now
serving their sentence in tho jaii ut Tren-
ton, N. j., then ho will have to pay the
penalty Of his misdoings. II, On the other
hand, he can prove that he never received
any money from William N. Boggs his
trial Will have only one ending, and that
Will DO one Of acquittal The men who
compose the jury are residents Of tho
State; not one Of them being resident Of
the city of Wilmington. There is every
reason to believe that the Senator will get
fair and impartial hearing. The fact Of
MS being Senator has not influenced the
trial one way or another, except to secure
an additional Judge to sit on the bench
with Judge Bradford while the rial 10

VIII cut no figure in his trial. The wljol,
question as We stated above will hinge on
the testimony produced as TO his guilt IN
receiving certain sums OF money until 1T
aggregated the sum Of "a, 300, which sum
he is now being tried with having received
from William N. Boggs. Eight men who
sat on the jury that convicted Thomas $
Clark have been drawn on the Keun.v
jury. About the same testimony in rela
tion to the receiving Of money IRON the
