They must travel to Washington &t their awn exponse to be examined, and while waiting the result must maintain thomselves ab an outlsy which they can il afford, particalarly if, 88 s the case with most of them, thoy aro unsuccessful. To mitigate this evil, the now Civil-Bervico - Advisory Board recommond that for purposos of examination and solection the country be divided into four distriots, with an Examining Board in each Mr. Traoy bas resigned the Prosidency of tho Chicogo & Northwestorn Railrond on sc- count of his health and his dutics aa Presi- dont of tho Rock Ieland, with which his inter- osts are most closely conuocted. Horaco T. Clark is bolioved in Now York to have the pros- pect of the uccossion. Should he bo chosen tho President of the Northwostern, the Vandor~ il railway connections would practically be trans-continental. Presidont Vanderbilt and his son-in-law, Prosident Olark, would then control the Now York Central, tho Lake Shore & Michi- fzan Southarn, the ‘Chicago & Northwester, and the Union Paclfie. The Gormsn Saloon-Keepors' Union have & fatal facility in adopting ill-considered rosolu- tions, as was abundantly showh in their indis- croot and offootual aseault on tho Bunday law somo time sgo. Laost night, thoy resolved to punish & prominent dry goods firm. in this city whe hed ¢ permitted” some of their clorka to sorve as jurors in a prosecution againat ono of tho saloon-koepors. The jury disagreed, and no conviotion was hed, but the saloon-koop- ers havo resolved that, until Fiold, Loiter & Co. dischargo tho elorks who aoted- ns jurors, all tho Uermans of tho city should rofuso to give them ‘hoir custom. Tha Comptrolier of South Carolins, in his re- tarn to tho writ to compel him fo levy a tax to’ pay tho intoroat on the bonded debt of tho Stats, protests against tho wholo ‘opefstion, olaiming that tho bonds upon which tho petition is based wore not lawfully hypothocated and sold, and that o large portion of them, amounting to 87,701,700, woro issuod without warrant of law, and ho thorefore aska that un invostigation shall bo Liad to determine what portion of the cntiro public debt of tho State, which amouuts to noarly #16,000,000; 1s valld, This is one of the mpumerons miseries brought upon thoe Btate by tho carpot-baggers. It is unforlunate, how- ovor, that the loss, if therols any loss, through non-psymont of intorest on tho $7,000,000 of fraudulont iseue, will not fall upon tho carpet- baggers thomsolves, but upon the holders in Now York who bought up the bonds, Tho car- pot-baggors hiava looked out for thomaelveu. e The Chicago produce markets wore dull yes- torday, and broadstufls wore lower.

Cattle wero woak'and a ehade lowor. 1 In an artiglo on tho rocont olootion In this Stato to flll the vacanoios on tho Buprome Bench, tho @raphic, of Now York, makes the following statoment ;- Judgo Lawronco has virtually do- clded that the railronda bold chartors which om- power them to chargo what thoy ploase, nod that noithor tho Logislature nor tho pooplo can holp thomsclves.” Judgo Lawronce virtually aud actually decided no such thing., Tho only cnso to which the Graphie could bave rofarred was that of tho Chicago & Alton Railrosd. The declaton in that caso was the unanimous opinion of the Oourt, consisting of sovon Judges unsurpassed for loarning and intogrity by tho samo number of Judges anywhere inthis country, Ohiof Justice Lawronco dolivered tho opinion in tho case, and thero were just two points toit, viz: 1. Tho Btato statuto, undor which tho suit waa brought, was invalid booauso it sought to make all railrond’ disorimination punishable whethor juat of unjust, Tho Consti~ tution of tho Stato of llinols provides that ** the General Assombly shall pnss laws to correct abusos and provent unjust discrimination.” Thé law failed, therefors, ‘to comply with tho Constitution, and the Court so docided. 2 Tho Court held that tho forfoituro of franchieo .ond' property worth from ton to twolve milllons of dollars, for tho firet offonso of o railrond, was an oxcossive ' ponalty in the contemplation of Inw, and could not be enforced. Theso wero tho only points In tho doalsion. 8o far from having mndo tho deslsion with which ko is crodited, Judgo Lawrence ghowed that the pooplo and tho Legislature can alwoys right the abusos whicls aflict , thom it thoy will go about it according to low, Ho -was dofoated in the olection by & varioty ‘of argu- monts, tho chief of which waa'that if ho should be elocted aftor tho Princeton Convention had nominated anothor man, tho Farmers’ Move- ‘ment would come to an end. a THE STOKES CASE, Tho announcoment that thoe Now York Coutt of Appeals fiually granted Btokes & now trial has occasioned vory gonoral surprise. Tho conduct and ovidence in'the caso passed muster boforo tho Buprome Conrt, and it was thought that thioro had boon no technical Gaws which would justity tho Court of last rosort in ordering & new trial. Two oplniona woro submitted, one by Justice Grover and tho other by Justico Rapallo, both of which conourred in roversing tho judgment of tho Conrt bolow. - Thoro wero threo points on which this decision was based : 1, Tho Court be- low had ndmitted evidenco showing that Fisk had mado throats against Btokes’ ifo whero the pur- ‘pose of tho ovidouce was to prove that theso threats had come to Btokes' cars, but it had ox- cluded ovidenco of threats of which Btokes had had no Information. Tho appellate Court held tho oxclysion to bo aon orvor, bocauso the ovidence of threats was material, not ouly in justification of Btokes, if ho kdow of thom, but as caloulated to throw additional light on tho quostion whethor or not tfisk had mado an at- tompt to talo Btokes' life. Threats on tho part of Tisk would bo equally kmportant ns ovidonco in this diroction, whethor Stokes knew of tho threats or not. 2. Jennio Turnor was s witness for tho accused, and gave important ovidonco. In the cross-oxamination, tho proseontion drow out testimony in rogard to the witnoss' rola- tions with her employers. Having drawn out this ovidencs, the prosecution was pormitted to put a witneas on tho stand to prove that Jennle Turnor's answors wore untrue. - Thie 'was hold to bo an orror, na [tho prosccution must abide by the evidenco elicited from its cross-oxamination, institutod for the purpose of impairing the credibility of a witness. 8. Tho Court bolow ‘chargod that, *tho fact of killing in this caso being substantially concoded, it bo- comos tho duty. of the prisoner horo to satisfy you that it was not murder, which tho law would imply from tho fact of tho killing under tho cir- cumstances, in the abeence of explanation that it was manslanghterin tho third degree or jus- tifiablo homicido,” Tho Court of Appeals held that this was throwing the burdenof proof upon the accused, and therofore error.. Tho statutory dofinition of murder in the first degroe in New York rendors intont a8 csgontial to the crime as the killing, and the intent, thorefore, must bo proved as well as tho act of killing. Theso woro 1o grounds on which a new trial was ordered. -1t Is poesiblo that the Court of Appeals would have ordered & new trial on tho singlo error found In tho chargo to tho jury, but Judgo Grover’s opinion roversed tho judgment of tho Gonrt bolow * for orrors in rojocting competont ovidence offored by tho prisonor, and in recoly- ing incompetent ovidenco against him.” This ig tho usual causo for tho rovorsal of judgments in criminal cases. Tiho law of avidenco in thiy country s 8o complicated and technical that o eriminal trial nevor occurs which does not offor opportunitica for oxceptions to the ruling of the Judgoes; and it is rarely that some ono or moroe of theso excoptions concerning the improper ad- migsion or exclusion of avidonco doos not securs a roversal from tho bigher court, and an ordor for o mow trial: Thero is nood of n thorough revision and simplifieation of theso rulos of ovidonce. As they sre mow, they aro constantly impeding tho course of justice. If thoy ehall multiply within the noxt fow yoars as rapidly a8 they bsve wcrensed within the past fow yoars, it will become simply Impossible:io sconro conviotion ina murder trial, no mattor Low plain a case may bo mado oul against tho scoused, The history of tho Btokes case I8 an illustration of the dangor. A'lat this was a clear cago of doliberato murder sonrcoly udmits of a doubt. Yet logal techuicalitios hava ologged the progross of thls trial ab every atop. Firut came tho effort to qussh the indictment, which, aftor much wrangling, was sustained, Then a long | ot and caroful trial took placo, in which' Jegal acumon was omployed to confuse ‘the minds the jurors, end the rosult was s disagreomont. A socond trisl ocourred, with tho exporience of tho firat on both eides and paying £08,008,000 mora than wé 'should do at tho pricen of 1860 for tho articlos aotually pro- dicod by thoso branohes of manutacture, i It {8 now in ordor for somo monopolist who haa grown rich by robbing the Amorican farmors and Iaborora In the name of protoction to move to suppross tho consus and all othor sourcos of truthful information, as tho offico of . Mr. Woells was abolished, on tho ground that any man who sliows this' peoplo how thoy are robbod must havo boon bribed by Dritish gold! It may ba alightly fnconveniont to mnko such n chargo sgainat 6o mauy Governmont officers, aoattorod allover the country, tho mojority of whom are themsolves proteotionista, Dut it must be dono, or tho peoplo will learn, from offlolal authority, that thoy hiave boon robbed of sixty-oight mill- fong in tho costof thoir woolon and worated cloths alono, which has boon inaronsed 63 per cont since tho consus of 1860 was taken, ' It this ugly and disloyal fact 1a not supprossed wo ehnll bave nothing to” bonat of—nolther more clothing; nor chesper clothing. - In other coun- trios, Invention, solonco, and fmprovement in skill of manufacture have brought cheaper clothing to consumers, so that tables of prices shiow -that goods cost somewhat loss than they did thirtoen yonrs ago. To admit that the pro- tectod pooplo of this country have not only boon doprived of sll sharo in tho world's progross in akill aud solanco, but that they have, in addition to this loss, o pooulisr progress of their own, which consists in paying for the samo quantity of products 63 per cent, or €69,000,000 mors than wo did thirteon yoars sgo—this, aurely, is intol~ orable! o had bottor suppross the consus at once | : Nobody will be astonished to learn that our cotton cloth costs mors than it did in 1860 ; but, tho cotton supply of Great Britain boing dopend- ent upon our production; it is a little diffoult to 800 why wa should have increasod tho costof a8 oxcollont proparatlon ns timo, talont, and money could seouro, and Blokoes was convicted, Thecasowhatalen uptotheBupremo Qonrt,which, ninca tho romoval of Darnard and Cardoro, has Dad & good roputation for loarning and Lonesty, and tho Bupromo Court could find no orror on which to brao n raversal, Lho caso thon wont to tho Court of Appeals, sftor having pnesod through ol this array of logal loarning, andhoro it waa discovered thnt the lnw of ovidenco had mot boon etrictly complied with, A third trisl has boen orderod at groat cxponro to the publle, and with inoreased probability that Stokes will on capo punishmont altogothor. Tho law of ovidonco is clumsy, rodundant, and tochnical to tho lsst dogreo, Tlero is ono work, * Greonloaf on Evidence,” which makes threo large volumoes, and a shirewd oriminal lawyer ‘might find cnough techinloalitiosto makothreo vol- umes more, snd confuso the most loarnod Judge and most intall'gent jury that over tried a caso, This mass of confusion and complication {s tho outgrowth of procodents, establishoed as safo- guards for accused porsons at a timo whon tho ponaltios wero grossly disproportionats to tho offonsos. Whiloaman was subject to bo hanged for stedling forty shillings, it was not unnatural that the Bonch and tho Bar ghould unite to hedgo the prisonor in by all the technical objeo- tions that could bo invonted. Now that penaltics aro botter proportioned to tho naturo of tho crimos, and hanging is Umited to tho singlo met of deliberately taking human life, there is no ronson why all the evidonco pro and con should not bo produced cloarly, intelligontly, end con- secutively for tha information of the jury. Un- dor tho prosent rulos of ovidonco, tho protection of the community is likoly to bo defoated in ovory criminal cnso that is brought into the courts. Thoro is noed foran introduction of gomo of tho French diroctness into tho-criminal Jurieprudchco of this country. Undor the French 0odo, tho Prosident of the Court fatorrogates tho prieoner with o view to ascertain as folly as possiblo his vorsion of tho alloged erlminal act, Evidenco is thon taken on both eides, unbam< porod by tochnical objections, in a dircot manner calenlated to presont overy phnso of the caso clearly before the court. Somo reform in this diraction has alroady been insugursted in this country. Every prisonor tried in a United Btates court is now pormitted to give his own testimony. In Illinois thonceused may tostify, and 8o in soveral othor Btates. Bt thoro is nowhero any obligation upon tho prisoncr to tontify. Tho purpose of criminal trisls ought to bo to convict tho guilty and acquit tho inno~ cont. This parposo has beon frustrated by tho tochnical rules that so froquently ropross mn- torial ovidonce. Thors is o nocossity foT open- ing tho gates wider and permitting all matorial evidonco to flow in, Its importanco and orodi- bave wo pot ‘s blesscd ' systom of pro- toction to -holp us?

If we mako i 734 por cont loss oloth, and yot' pay 64 por cont \moro for it, thoro must bo a difference of over ! 60 per cont hero, also, botweon tho pricos of 1860 ‘and 1870.

But it sppoara that protoction does mot glve us more cloth; that wo actually mako less cloth, import loss, and wonr loss, than we @id in 1800, In pro- portion to population, we make soven yards loss, import sixand a balf yayds less, and consume in all about fourtoon yards loss, than wo did boforo this blossod systom of protection bogan it * bo- nign influence" aforesaid. Wo have mado s grent soarclty of cloth, aad call that ““progress.” | Lot us givo thanks! Bocanso, in proportion to population, we make logs cloth by ono-sixth, and woar less cloth by ono-quarter, loos us bless and praise the system of proteotion! The' re- vivalist who eaid his flock was somewhat ‘* back- ward in coming forward,” should have etudied thig tarifT; lio would havo commondéd it as po- culiarly forward in gotting bactward. It sounds ko o rathior ghastly joke to suggost that we may have gainod in yrices. DBut protec- tion being a groat blessing, inasmuoh.as it doos notgivous moro, it cortsluly must givo us cheaper cloth, Not from abroad, of courso! It would bo tronson to ‘American industry to get anything chonper from abroad. Therefore, wo poy dutich joquivalent 69 por cont' on ‘woolon ‘cloth, from 85 to 118 per cont on flannol, from 653 to 80 por cont on worsteds, and 633§ por cont on roady-made woolen clothing—caro- fully imposing tho lowest dutios on thoso arti- alos which the richor poopla only would import. On nbout 8,000,000 yards of woolens and flan- nols imported in 1870, wo paid dutios of $4,429,- 810, or an avorago of 55 cents to the yard, and, a8 tho import cost of the samo goods avoraged only B03¢ conts o yard, tho tax avoragod 69 per cont. .

Tho charges made against him aro so grayo in charsotor that they caunot bo ignored. If they should prove to, be truo, public opinion alono may forco him to rosign. Should it not o so, and ghould it turn out that the Benate cannot tako cognizanco_of purely eocial misdeeds upon tho part of ono of its mombors,. still the proju- dico against him will' bo g0 strong that ho will prefor rosignation -to social and political ropronch. Tho substanco of tho charges mado sgainst him is, that ho is passing under an as- sumed namo, his real namo boing John' Hipplo. It is furthermoro said that about six -yoors sgo ho abandoned his wife and family and fled from Ponnsylvania, whero they were then rosiding.
