Mrs. Huntington will be sallowed to vote at the Presidential election by the Sclectmen of Norwsik, Conn. Cattle aresuflering for water and wells are fesling, in Southorn Illinois, where a drought orevails almost 28 severe as that which proced- 5d the great fires of the Northwest, last year.

A Judge of Election at Scranton testi- fies that Shoemaker, the Republican candidate for Congress, offered him ten dollars to return a Republican majority in & district in which there swere but six or seven Republicans, opposed to nearly 250 Democratic voters. _ Sundsy was made by general consent o day of rest for the horses of New York. _Only three ceses have proved fatal uut of the thirty thousand reported, but the loss from suspension of business is estimated at millions of dollars. Travel and transportation are so interrupted that tho Europesn steamers may delay their de- parture séveral days. A curious rumorcomes from Boston that a hostler in the Firo Depart- ment has been sttacked hy the disease. Our Springfield correspondent furnishes, in another column, & list of pardons granted by the Governor of this Statcon the recorsmeadation of Charlos H. Reed, Btate’s Attorney, andalso of par- dons recommended'by Mr. Read, but not granted. There are eighty-sis of the former and twenty. of the Istter, embracing the following aseortment of orimes: Forgery, Larcony, Robbery, Barglary, Rape, Assault, Arson, Incest, Manslaughter, Riot, Recoiving Stolon Goods, and Selling Lot~ tory Tickets. To the Third Senatorial District, the Liberal nominee for Senator is Mr. iiles Kchoe, an in- telligent citizen, s native of tho district, and enjoying & high character for personal integrity. We understand that it has been industriously circulated that Mr. Kchoe’s name has been with- drawn, and thot of ex-Alderman Hildroth sub- stituted. Mr. Kehoo has not withdrawn and +will not withdraw, and there is no suthority or disposition to withdraw him from the candidacy. Any othér candidacy, under the circumstances, can have no offect other than to clect the Grant candidate in a district that ought to give n Lib- eral majority of 2,000, ———— . Saloon-keepers seem to have paid very little attention yesterdny to the Sunday L aw beyond decorously closing their blinds. Thero was mo part of the city where adrink could notbe easily got. Intho North Division, where the Ger- mans reside, the saloons were all open, and ‘beer was'gold as usual. No disturbance of any kind occurred; but there were fourteen arrcsts for drunkonness against ten last Sunday. No particulsr activity in making complaints ap- peared on the part cither of citizens or police- men, the Iatter following the decisions of the Police Justices that their duty did not require them to make -any prying efforts to discover violations of the law. 2 The " Journal, Post, and J. Y. Scemmon, of Milwaulkee, all inslst that the Greeley men got up the present disturbance regarding the Sun- day law, for the purpose of making political cap- jtel ont of it. That is to say, tho Greeley men put forward Henry Greenebsum, Grant Elector- at-Lerge, to call 2 public meeting, appoint com- mittees of twenty-five, committoos of soventy, committees on election, etc., and get up an agi- tation just before an election, in order to mako votes for themselves and sgainst Henry Greencbsum aforesaid ! As Mr. Greenebanm is 3 German by birth and & believor in the Jewish £3ith, holding Saturdsy to be the trug Sabbath, it ia fair to presumo that he-did not intend all the consequences of his public spirited perform- ance. It is nevertheless as clear s noonday that, bt for his officious zeal in getting up public meetings, all this agitation that the Journdl, Post, and J. Y. Beammon, of Milwaukes, attrib- ute to the Greeley men, would have been avoided. — Tt is & noticeable feature of the Epizootic or Horsa Catarrh, that, while it is rapidly pro- gressing eastwardly from Buffslo, the point where it first developed itself aftor crossing the Cansdian border, it has made little or no progress westward, From Buffalo it travelled with al- most railroad speed to Rochester, Albany, New York City, Providencs, Boston, and Portland, and at last accounts was steadily advancing into Nova Scotia. West and south of Buffalo, in the same space of timo, it has made no perceptible progress whatever. One or twocases have devel- oped themselves af Indianapolis and Dotroit, but not with sufficient severity or in sufficient nnmbers to occasion any alarm. It may be ae- pumed with perfect Bafety that it will ot prove epidemic in the Wost, The reason of this is undoubtedly tobe found in tho wide difference of weather and temperaturo between the East and the West. At the East it has been foggy and rainy for bwo or thres weeks past, and in New York and Boston the disease reached its height dnring severo rain-storms. In tho Weat, however, it has been comparatively clear and dry, with prevailing eouthwest winds. While tho southwest wind aggravated our cal- amity a year ago, it has evidently saved us from another calamity now.

ENFORCING THE LAW. Mayor Medill's reply to 3Mr. Lackner and Colonel Enobelsdorff, in reference to the Sunday law, isin substance that he shall enforce the law to the extent of reporting all offenders to the Police Courts for trial, but that he shall not em- ploy his discretionery power of revoking licenses except in extreme cascs. This is what may be called & justifiable laxity. The power to revoke licenses was given to the Meyor in order to se- cure the more prompt enforcement of the law, yet it is a discretionary power, and is to bo em- Dloyed only in cases where it is, inhis judgment, more usoful than the ordinary processes of justice. We think thet o Bweoping attempt to revoke two or three thousand, licenses, cover- ing everything of 2 fluid nature from fourth- harm then good, and that & prudent officer, hav- ing & dne regard to tho public peace, would hesi- tato, at this timo, to firo all the contents of & gun which none of Lis predecessors in offica Tavo exployed during tho past fifteen or twenty yoars, cxcept in cases marked by disorderly con- duct. Thers is a statuto of this State which pro ides that any person who shell bring into this State, or sell or offer to sell, & pack of pleying-cords, & billiard-table, or billierd-balls, shall bo sub- jected to o fine of not less than $25. Thelawis rendered the moro absurd because the misde- meanor thus defined is placed, in the samo sce- tion, upon & level with the crime of selling ob- scene books or prints. Under this statute, it is probablo that every bookseller, stationor, snd Xkeoper of o news-dopot in Chicago could be con- victed, and fined. Another section of the Crim- provides that every tavern-kecper who sball per- mit any infringement upon thig interpretation shall be fined $100, ehall forfeit bis license, and shall not be again licensed as & tavern-keeper for ono year from his conviction. TUnder this statute, it is entircly probable that overy hotel- XLecper in Chicago could be at once shorn of his privilege, as the playing of o game of billiards for the prico of the game (the usual way of playing) in his houso would make him amens- ble to the punishment thus preecribed. To fol- low the reductio ad absurdum, every hotel in Chicago should havo its doors closed now, and the travellers should bo requested to take care of themselvos until houses could be pro- vided whero billisrd-tables could not be found. Many of these impracticablo statutory provi- sions can be traced back to the carly part of the century, and aro the ontgrowth ofthe wisdom of tho first Territorial Govornment,—the same which furnished us the “black laws” only re- cently repealed. When tho statutes of the Btate were reviscd at n later date, tho eriminal code, of which these area part, was transferred bodily and almost: without amendment. Standing as they do to-day, the existenco of theso statutes is an gpplication of village legislation to city gov- ornments. It is unnecossary to say that such an application cannot succeed. It does nob suc- ceed. 'Under this statuto, every Magyor, overy Justice of the Peace, every Sheriff, and every Grand Juror ie instructed to take notice of sall offences against these laws. It is safe to say, then, that every Justico of the Poaco, every Mayor, overy Sheriff, snd every Grand Juror in the State of Dlinois is guilty of & neglect of duty, and consequent violation of $is oath of office. One result of the continuanco of such laws, therefore, is to promoto malfeas- ance in office. Another result, it will ecarcely be denied, is to destroy the popular respect for 1aw, and to encoursge & popular disregard for it. Obsolete laws are not peculiar to this Stato, nor to this country. There exists a law in Eng- 1and, to-dsy, making it a penal offence for la- borers to form s combination to eocure an ad- vance in wages,—s law that is openly and fre- quently violated. The old law of England, still in force, distinetly gives the ‘husband the right to whip his wife when, in his suporior judgment, he may-deem it advisablo,—a law that is not sus- tained in the minor courts, whero tho excreiso of the privilego is often a mooted question. Thero is & law in Pennsylvania which prohibits the running of public conveyances on the Sab- bath day. An attempt was made, a few years ago, under this law, to prevent ‘the street-cars in Philadelphia from running on Sunday, but the Supreme Court,in an elaborate op ion, overtled the complaint, on the ground that the first day of tho week is not the Sebbath day, and that they could not import Old Testament Judaism into modern jurisprudence. The old lowof this Btate cmploys the same phraso, « Sabbath dey or night,” in imposing penalties againat tippling-houses, but the later statute, prolibiting any disturbance of tbe peace and good order of society,uses the words, ¢ firgt day of tho week commonly called Sundey,” It is ‘undoubtedly true that the law-makers intended to refer to the sume day in bothinstances. The changs of plraseology indicates that as the State became moro populous it was found that some sccts and nationalities (the Seventh- Day Beptists and Jews, for instance), made a distinction between the Sabbath and Sunday, which the Legislature was compelled to recog- nize, THE SAN JUAN BOUNDARY. Among the subjects of controversy with Great Britain which were referred to arbitration, was the settlement of the netional Loundary on the northwestern corner of the Territory of Wash- ington. Prior to 1845, the United States claimed tho Northwest Territory up to the line of 5440, while tho Brilish insisted that the true line was lalitude 49. In the Presidential clection of 1844, the Democratic party adopted the cry of *54.40 or fight,” end, fn tho innugural sddress of Presi- dent Polk, e siated that our title up to 5440 was “clear and indisputable,” was .made Secrotary of Stato in 1845, and he cerried on the negotiations on this subject; The Democratic party in Congress was mainly pledged to insist on the extromo line, and when, subse~ quently, Mr, Buchanan accepted the line of 49 weels {n Qongress warmy, and, iadeed, fiery de- nunciations of Lis imidity. A treaty vg3 mpde {his line beyond the mainland swomld haye included within the United States the prineipal Dritish sottlersents upon Vaccouver's Island. The treaty, therefors, provided that the line should be g0 deflected asto give to Grest Brjtain part of Qregox : the County of Whatcom are the Talinds of toTeplize sngab the amse tjmomaterially lesseny proof brandy to ginger-pop, would produce more.’ Mr. Buchanan 28 an’ alternptive £65 war, thore wero for some adopting tho lino of 485 b to have cxtended aliof Yancouver's Island.” In 1853, ‘Hlie Dorthern | 5 set aparb, under the namo of Washington Ferritory, aud, soon after, the Ter- ritory was divided into counties. insicded in San Juan, Orens, Lopez, Blakely, Deeatur, and | Shaw, whjch group lios between tho Canal do-| coption of cliorus addorchestra. Haro and the Rosario Streits. The treaty of 1846, npon deflecting the line g0 as to give the British o1l of Vancouver's Island, extended the line by the principal or main channel tothe ocean. Subsequently it was found that there were two channels, either of which wonld answer this description. By adopting one, this group of islands would belong to Great Britain, and, by adopting the other, they would becoma the property of the United States. The Hud- son’s Bay Company, backed by the British au- thorities, determined to take ‘posseasion, and, in 1853, oceupied San Juan, which is the most im- portant of the gronp. The United States Col~ lector for thet district remonetrated, but Gover- nor Douglas, of Vancouver, sppointed & Mr. Grifiin British Magistrate for San Juan, to hold it as o dopendency of Vanconver. In 1855, the Legielature at Washington Territory levied the onnual tax, end the Sheriff of Whatcom County seized thirty sheep on the island bolonging to Griffin, for im- posed taxes. Grifin claimed 915,000 damages for the ‘“‘outrage.” In 1856, & joint commission was appointed to establish the boundary line be- tween Weshington Territory snd the British territory. They agreed es to the mainland. The English Commissioners however, insisted that the channe} nearest to the mainland was tho true water boundary, while the Americans in- sisted thatit was the Do Haro Channel, that being nearest to Vancouver's Island. There was, therefore, no agreement. While these pro- ceedings were going on, thero were some S0 Americons on the island of San Juan, and 18 British subjects. In 1857, Genersl Harney Janded thore with 2 detachment of troops, and goon after, on the same day, & British vessel- of-war arrived totske posscssion. Tho ves- gel returned to Vencouver, to obtain = force $rial Jurisprudonco of this Stato dofincs gaming | gucient to drive Harhey from to momn tho pleying of any EDO | ghoigland, and war was imminent.

General Scott visited San Juan, and at his suggestion & joint military oc* cupation was agreed upon, and each nation has Lept o forco of 100 men on the island ever since. By the Treaty of Washington of 1871, the whole question was referred to the Emperor of Germany, who hos just decided thunt the boun- dary line is by the De Haro Channel from ‘the point where the lino of 49 degrees strikes ‘Vancouver's Island. This gives the United States all that was claimed. The Tsland of San Jusn is described as about 15 ‘miles long .and 7 miles wide, containing 40,000 acres of land. The northern part is mountain- ous ond timbered; tho south i prairie land, and very fertile. Its chief value is the harbor, near which is an extensive quarry of limestone. These islands, the ownership of which lizs been 80 long contested, all have limestons quurries. Coal has also beon found on some of them. They furnish extonsive fisheries for salmon, cod, and balibut. < AN OPERATIC FAILURE. As the Lucca operatic troupe is the only one before the public this season, whatever concerns it is of. more than ordinsry interest. It will sur- priso musical readers, therefore, to learn, ac- cording to the auntharity of the New York Herald, that the sogson in that city hasbeen a failure. Theo blowing of trumpets with which the troupe was heralded certainly led the public to expect the most successful season ever known on the Iyric boards of thia country, both musically snd financially. The troupe wes organized, and is now under the management -of Henry Jarrett, {ho voteran Tondon imprasario, who has piloted almost all the great singers of the present, to success, and Max Marotzek, whose hair has grown gray in. tho operatic business, and whose acquaintance with artists and the pub- lic, and familiarity with routine details, ought to have qualified him to have stoered clear of the breakers in which so many operatic ventures liave been wrecked. Itis to be presumed that Mr. Jarrett is not thoroughly acquainted with the wants and tho tomper of tho American people. He has been in this country ‘but a short time, acting a8 tho confidentia) sgent of Mad. Nilsson-Rouzand during her concert and a very brief operatic tour, which gavo him no oppor- tunify of knowing the American pooplo inan operatio sonse. Mr. Maretzek, however, is an ol stager, who has ranaged almost every prime- donna in this conntry, during the past thirty years, but his oxporicnce docs not seem to have taught him any sense. HobLas committed the same crror this timo thathe has committed scores of times before, and tho influence upon his pockets will probubly be tho same. 'This er- ror is the presumption that an opera season cen be carried through to success upon the neme of ono prima-donna; in other words, tho two man- agers have caleulated that the world-wide ropu- tation of Lucea was sufficient, without other at- tractions, to make the scason a profitable one, and that there was no necessity to support that prima-douna with & thorough and eflicient troupo. Acting upon this principlo, they organ- ized their forces, and the result is stated by the Herald. Tamot, tho basso, is en artiet of abil- ity, Miss Kellogg has accomplished nothing, owing to her foolish jealousioa of Luces, and on hernights the houso has been filled with dead-hends. Vizzani, the temor, has been 8 failure both as actor and singer. Abrugnedo, the other tenor, has broken down two or threo times. Of tho beritones, Sparapani has novoice, and Morinma ig wandering and uncortein. The gontralto, Senorita Sanz, hias the diphtheria, and ought not to bo singing at all. Tho subordinate singors aro bad without cxception, the chorus thoroughly inefiicient, 2nd the orchestra exc- crable. Tho rosult of all this is, that the enthusissm has died away, and what littlo intorest remaing centres In Lucea and Jomet, It is the inovit- sble result of tho pernicious star- systom carried to its worst excess. It soems strange that managers, not only of tho opers, bub of tho drama 2180, caanot undara}fmd that a star’ slono cannot draw, and thet what the peoplo want ig an effective combination of all parts. Any other orgenization is an injustico to tho prima-donze, which aompgls her to do all the work, and makes hor responsiblo for the shortsomings of tho in- capsbles, and an injustice to tho publie, in nob giving them a fair equivalent for their money. The people are always ready to support & meri- torions combination, and the manager who fur- nishes i ean always rely upon their ‘henrty sup- port and handsonio remunoration. Italisn opera cnn mever gaim § permanent ‘foothold i this country until it ig organized in this panngr, and the besat availablo talent is geouzed for ench past, howover subordinate that pert may be. ‘Thero has never yob Jqen a manugor in this counbry who has ‘dleplayed ordinary shrowdness Greu inverizhly gom= in organizing troupes. 1 Mdx'Strakosch bes orgerized well, with the ex- of cliort Loonexd Gro- ver, with his first German troupe, succeeded in getting o splendid chorus and orchestrs, but no leading people of extraordinery merit, Maretzek, years 850, organized some strong combinations, and made money, but of late years ho has only put together patch-worl troupes, andhas lost all he has ever made, and more too. Whan ‘managers loarn to place opera upon a strict busi- ness basis, and apply the commercial rile of giving their: customers the best goods in the: ‘market and the worth of their money, they will ‘be successful. It is just as impossible to run an opera-troupe with one prima-donns, the remain- der of the poople being supernumeraries, as it would be for a men to keep a grocery store on the specialty. of excallent salt fish, or a dry goods dealer to build up & business on the super- lotive qualities of his blue ribbon alone. The sooner they recognize this fact thebetter it will be for them, and until they do recognize it opera must lead only & sickly existence, and will never become s permanent institution in thig country. Thereis an opening for the coming mansger, whoeyer ho may be, if he has good sense, and gives tho people what they want. L ——— 3 CONSUL GENERAL BUTLER: The historian who should undertake {o por- tray the condition of American Civil Service un- der the administration of Gonersl Grant could scarcely overlook the case of George H. Butler, our Consul General to Egypt. To judge of its boarings upon the Civil Service system, it would be neéasapry to go back of his appointment, when it wonld be discovered that his unfitness for an official position of anykind was notorious. As a resident of New York City, he was known a3 2 common brawler and street-rowdy. A fracas of s disreputable character brought him into the courts, and spread his name abroad. It wounld subsequently be found that George H. But- ler was appointed tothe chief diplomatic position in the Orient, with a full and general Xknowledgo of his character, as one of the means adopted to gratify General Benj. F. Butler, o nenr relative of the Consul Gemeral. The next discovery would be that Consul General Butler's officinl conduct fully justified his private character asa rough. He entored upon a prolonged spree at the same time that be assumed the dutiea of his Consular position. He began tho disgrace which bhe has brought upon thoe country by soliciting and -sccepting = & reguler salary from the Khedive, in addition to that paid him by his own Government, He bartered off Consular agencies and took part in’ ‘money-making schemes prohibited by the Con- sular rogulations. Itis stated that he acquired nearly 321,000 in gold by these means, though dovoting himself almost exclusively to personal dissipation. He opened nearly all letters, that came directed to the care of the Consulate, and concealed this meanness by either suppressing them altogether or explaining that they had beon openod by mistake. He attracted the ill- will of the people of the countiy, and put to blush the American travellers who visited Egypt. Finally, ho brought his carcer toa sudden and disgraceful termination by shooting and wound- ing a man in o drunken brawl: Startled at this, hehad the quick ingenuity to telegraph to his uncle and protector athome to scoure him an immediate leavo of absence, which was forward- ed tohim by cable. This enabled him to leave the scone of his fights and drunken rows still clothed with official dignity. The historian of American Civil Service wonld find the ovidence of all this in the z{fdavit of one A. D. Strologo, wha officiated as Private ccretary to Consul General Butler, and who now rovenls the latter's disgracoful procoodings becamso he had been swindled out of hia - proportion of the profits - which the Consul General had promised him for his silence and co-operation. A more trust- worthy witness may be found, however, in Gen- eral Starring, who, as Special Agentof the United States Treasury, mnde an investigation of Butler's official conduct, and submitted a re- port to the Government nearly a year ago. Itis known thet General Starring's roport set forth materially what has since become 2 matter of notoriety ; but the report was carofully stawed away in tho Government, archives, and withheld from the public, in order that Consul Geaeral Butler might continue his disgraceful ca- reer under the protcction of the United States Government. It is probable that the future historian of the American Civil Ser- vice system will find this cirenmstance ‘more damaging to tho Administration than anything that cen be sxid concerning Murphy, Casey, Craracr, Hudson, Leet, or Stocking. THAT CONTEMPT CASE. 1t has already been snnounced in our columns that Mr. Cherles L. Wilson, proprietor, and Mr. Andrew Shuman, oditor, of the Evening Journal, of this city, have been cited to appear befors the Saprome Court of Illinois, to auswer for con- tempt of Cowrt, for certain comments mado by that -paper upon tho action of the Court in granting & writ of superscdeas in the case of the wwderer Rafforty. The article which has pro- voled this action-upon the part of the Court, as reproduced by the Journal, is as follows : TIE CASE OF RAFFERTY. i At the timo a writ of sujiersedeas was granted in the case of thomurderer Chris, Rafferty, the pullic was Dblandly assured (at tho mattef would Lo examined into by the Supremo Court aud decided at ouce—that possibly tho Lisuging of this notorious human buteher would not be delayed for a singlo day.

To the Editor of The Chicago Tribune: Sm: A word, if you please, in defence of the much-sbused drinking community. For myself, 1 do not care a fig whether any liquor is sold on Sunday or not, or, in fact, on any dey in the year at all; but Tdo caro to sec a question involving the tastes, habits, and predilections of by far the greator portion of those who spend their Sundeys out-of-doors, treated fairly and justly; and I do not consider that it is fair and just, for instance, to include Turner Halls, and German beer- saloons, or firat-class, respectably-located bar- rooms, in the same category of murder-breeding purchasg munity from crimo, and that the Conrtg o who pre 3 e 2 but are feasiing, afier the manner of vampires, upon humen blood end other sgngul dist. Whilp tho Supreme Court seos in'such chyrges a8 thege p tendengy to” bring it into conterpt, we doubt whether the people at largs will look &b it in that light. It soema to us, pests as the lows dens and groggeries. Anybody can pass by o Tarner Hall on Sunday, when the audience iscoming out, orby arespoctableaaloon, without being insulted. = Tho peoplo who fre- quent such pluces are neither of the ciass who amuse themselves in that way, nor of that which produces our cut-throats; and tho men who manage such concerns ero;sbundently able and willing to provent any naisancs or trouble in or about their premises. As to whiskey being the cause of all our troubles, that istrue only in part. . Actual observation on West MMadison street will convince sny ons thatthere arca cluss of men, or roughs, rather, that will insult women, with or without whiskey; and it is en- firoly ' the famit of the polico that they ~do it. Nor are garroters aud burglars_ in the habii of plying their {xads under the influence of whiskey. I fail to seo any justice in punishing our inoffensive German population, to whom ber is 2 harmless necessity, or tho respecteble portion of the American community, who are in the habit of indulging moderately on Sundays, because & Truffian killed an officér on one occasionin s grog- gery. At least that incident nppears to be the toxt for all the present outery. o Tt would be amusing, if it didn’t tef ‘one’s atience, to observe 'the efforis of the pro- iquor-layw party to cook up facts and evidence for theirreiders, and suppress anything that conflicts with their versions or their views,— their aim, of courde, ‘being to influence the pub~ lic mind, as far as possible, to their way of think- ing. That the end justifies the means, seoms to De their doctrine. Tho Sons of Temperance, at at their meeting on last Tuésday, stated, in one of their resolutions, that, “On the two Sab- Laths on which the saloons have beon to a great extent closcd, thie number of arrests decreased more than 50 per eont.” It will be news to their readers to learn that there was & genoral closing, or even partisl closing, of saloons on tho Sun- day before laat ; indeod, I did not observe thaf any had closed. If, then, the décreese of ar- yesits on that occasion be’ true, it roust detract a good deal from the glory of the Temperance purty's success lust Sunday. Again, as rogards fast” Sunduy, the polico had (hoir hands moré than full with walching the saloons, and they could not possibly have mado oven thie usual number of arrosts, 1f they had tried to, 1 assert boldly that -there wero more drunken men to be secn on the streqts last Sunday night than usapl. Will the new:gmpem leaso {ontf - scribe the scenes on_the Suunyside Road lest Sundey? If they will, the Tomperanco party” will have little laft to boast of. | ‘A member of that party, signinghis production #Taw and Order,” wrote s letter the othor day to a city journal, inwhich he remarked that ha *alway3 bought tho Sondey moruiug papor, for the purpose of knowing where the usual Sunday muarder had been committed.” That man's tastes in the way of reading aro . cortainly even lcss extraordjnary than the fact that ho should publish his misfor- tune. - Yo winds ~up with the assump- tion that “The people will bo gatinfied with nothing less” on tho rnrt of the Mayor than a sirict enforcement of the law,’ ‘‘The ecple’ is an'oxtensive ‘mmo, and yot he uses 1t very frecly, quito reck essly. But, seriously, will ay one tompotert to form e opinion cblige me by inferming this writor what' might be" con~ gidered o fair ostimate of the proportion between the people who honestly ¢bject to the eale of liquor on Sunday, or who are likely to be annoy- ed by i:{ on theone hand, aund, 'on theother, those Who indulge on Suuday, 2ud {hose Who do not, ‘but ere pot annoyed by it, ordon't care s contir nental whother liguor it old ornob 2 .1 _For my purt, I'fancy I have as good opportu- nities as most {,cnple of judging what the feel- ing is in private circlos of soclety, end I have found no particular anxiety manifested on tho subjoct, except so far as tho supprossion of crime itself, and the performance of their du- 1y by courls and constables, nuturelly oxcite a doop interest in tho community. .The fact i, the failure of the authoritics to arrost and puni islt criminals is to be smotaered up and protect- ed from public indignatiod by diverting the lat- ter in anoiLer dlrecting, and ‘the iunocynt must Legr the brunt of ° tho punishmont, The true and only remedy, if suppression of crime is the only object of the lquor-law party, seems to meplain and simple_enongh.

IMental Derangemont the Occasion of ‘the Sad Affair. “ #% * TLouis A. Kormendy, the well-known gymnast shot himsclf through the head st the Briggs House yesterdsy morning. A yearsgo last May, hawas taken sick with typhoid fever, and lay nearly four monthsin the old Briggs House. where he was taken care of and nursed into con- valescence. The attack was long and severe. On the night of the fire he was weak, and had to bo assisted from the house. He lost by tho fire his entire establishment in Metropolitan Block. Subsequently he opened another gym- nasium on Indiana avenue, near Twenty-second streat, and had a large school until a short time ago, when he bocame unable to attend and in- struct his pupils. Hig friends noticed sfter his gickness that he was not himself ; that ho was occasionally flighty, snd that his mind was de- pressed and filled with strange and un- ‘couth fancies, indicating mental derangement. About three weeks sinco he sent for Mr. Charles H. Hilton, of the Briggs House, ¥ho ' had been very kind to him during his illnesa. Afr. Hilton found him a. tho gymnasiom, in » very despondent mood, and laboring under deln- sions thnt seemed to tronble him exceedingly. He was taken to the Briggs fora few days, and corefully wetched. The symptoms of insanity incressed, and his revolver was taken from him quietly, 80 23 not to excito-his suspicions. A day or two after he improvised a slung-shot, by tying a piece of lead in & pocket-handkerchief. That, too, was removed. Dr. Ben. C. Miller then made arrangements to have him treated a$ the County Hospitsl, where he was taken by Mr, Hilton. Two or three days afterward be came to town with Dr. Skelly, and insisted upon gotting his revolver. The carfridges ware drawn, and it was given to Dr. Skelly, but he finally got possession of it. On Thuraday 1nst ho left the hospital without having given ‘notice, went to Jetfarson, took the in, and came to the city. He again appesred at, the Briggs, and it was decided to send him to Jack- sonwille. Iu this ho scquissced, seming ta bo afraid to trust himself, and hi3 case was ta have been presented in the County Court thig m‘gmggt.nnh ing he k n Saturday evening he fook suj Briggs, with his {rienngHiltnn, ity !H?.-“ ley’s in charge of * Billy,” the robust porter. He was rather despondent, though the feats of agil- ity and the nastic portion of the porform- ance seemed 1) a 7aken au interest in his mind, and he expiaesed his iration _a% what particularly ;eloased him. Returnis to the hotel at 11 o'clock, he went to bed, the porter sleeping in the same room to keep zn eye upon him. About2 o'clock yesterdsy morning e awoke and complained of & cold chill. Billy ‘put more bedclothes on him, but he could not sleop, and at 3 o'clock insisted upon rising and going down to the fire. John, the night porter, was celled, and took him down to the oflice, where he say ip the chair by the stove. Tha servants had finished sweeping ut, and John, who was standing near the door, observed him putting bis hand bonind his back, end quick ss thought he had dravn ihe revolvar and dis- charged it in his right ear. The portex jumped towards him and caught his arms, but mot soon _ enough ) to avert the catagtrophe. Just before the shoot- ing, he wes heard to mutter, *T'll put an end to my misory.” Dr. Young, Dr. Miller, and Mr, Hilton were immediately called, and took him ta tho County Hospital. He complained of excrus ciating pain, but romained sensible. The condition of the unfortunate man had as-~ sumed no materinl change at a late hourlast night. He was atill conscions, and, in spita of tho intense pain vhich he evidently smnife ho wes able to respond fecbly to ‘any question that might be put to him. His physicians, how- ever, do not permit any one to disturb him with convoreation. 1t will be impossiblo for them to givo an intelligent opinion of tho case before threo days, sbout which time a crisis will be éflud’ the lmmflundin.fia result of which will be or convalescence. But little hopa i - fertained of his recovery. Lone Ar. Kormendy was born in Hungary, and came to this country with his father, some twelve years sinco. His father died soon after, and he s left withous a relativo on this side of the Atlantic. He had no femily ties, but when sickness prostrated him, he was surrounded by many friends, who know of his utter loneliness, and wetched and tended him with fraternal af- taction. In his profession of t he waa very successful, and the interruption of his ca~ reer will be a loss to the community in which physical and muscular dsvelopment aze not en- tirely unnecessary. STABBING AFFRAY. Botween 12and 1 o’clock yesterday morning, two young men, named Michael Conlan and William :.Baker, ‘boarders at the house No. 160 ‘Waubsusie avenue, quarreled over a game of cards which they were playing in the sitting- xoom of the establishmont.
