CThe Chicags Teibune, 1873. Fridoy Morning, July 11, The first balo of this year's cotton orop was roceived at Now Orleans yesterdny, from Browns- villo, Toxas, on its wuy to Now Yorl. Porto Rico was given tho rank of & Torritory In tho rocent draft of & map of the Spauish Fed- oral Republic, but the Colonial Ministor now proposes that it bo made & Btato. In tho local columns will bo found a statement of tho atreots through which tho Board of Public ‘Works have decided to run the sowers, for which provision was recently made by the Common Council, in accordance with tho recommendation of tho Mayor. Vice-Presidout Tom Scott, of the Pennsylvanis Central, has gono to Europe on the double or- rand of negotiating the bonds of the Toxns Pa- ciflc and freeing the Memphis & El Paso Rail- road from the claing of the Fronch stockholders, who wero victimized by Gen. Fromont and his ngonts. Asapart of the latter work, ho pro- poses to clear Gen, Fremont from tho stigma judicially put upon lim by the Frouch courta. Tho proposod lease of the Gilman, Olinton & Springfleld Railroad lo the Pennsylvania Central wns not consnmmated at the anuual meeting of the stockholders yosterday. Tho law of this Stato malos tho written consont of every stock- holder n prereqnisito condition of any such 1eare, and as a1l of thege could not bo obtained, the Ponnsylvania Contral is balked in at least ono of its attempts to swallow all tho railroads of tho country. In the statemont that cight Turkish mon-of- war havo sniled for tho Indian Ocean to take careof tho interests of tho Sultan in Sumatra, thero is o suggestion of further trouble in store for the Dutch in their war with the Acheonese, The Sultan of Acheen has pleaded from the start that be could not accedo to the demands of Hol- laud without tho cousent of the Sublime Porte, and may have succeeded ininducing tho latter to oomo to bis eid. The attempt to kiduap Lord Gordon may prove & sorious mattor for the Minncapolis de- toctives and their frionds who invaded Manitobs the other day. Tt socems that Lord Gordon had takon rofugoe in that province to escape the pay~ ament of & bail-bond for £37,000 swhich he Lad given Zor his appearance in tho suits against Tay Gould. Tis surctics, Marehall 0. Roberts and the ostato of the lato Horaco F. Clarke, were respongiblo in ceao e could not be brought back, and it was at their instigation that the Miuneapolis orpedition was pgotten up. It procood- ed withont regard fo the extradition treatios and in violalion of the reln- tions between this country and Cana da to carry him off by force. Its membors were caught, and if the Manitoba Courts exact the full pun- ishment of the law thoy must go to jail for ten yoars. There is but one dificulty in the way of the success of Baron Reuter's magnificent scheme for runuing tho Persinn Govornmoent by con- tract and dividing the profits with tho Shah, at thorato of $4 for Reuter to £1 for tho Shab, and that Is, that tho King of Kings may not bold to Liy Dargain. If the dispatchies this morning may be trusted, Reuter’s fato will add another to the long list which tenches mnot to put faith in Princes. Ho spent $1,600,000 in bribes, loans, and guaranteoes to got bis contract, and the pros- poct now 18 that he will lose it. ‘The Shah is be- sot by jenlous London financiers, and by his Minister of Public Works, who probably did not got enough of tho quarter of o million which Reuter distributed iu bribes, to canceltho agreo- ment. Reutor is said to bo anxious to soll his franchise, but fluds no buyers. ‘We publish elaewhlicre the views of somoe of tho leading membors of ihe wholesale grocery and bordwsre trado of Chicago respecting tho new mailway freight tariffs, Whilo conewrring in the opinion that it is too omly as yet to form deci- sivo opinions on that subject, they conenr also n the belief thut no considerable damnge will be doue to tho trade of this city by the pro rate law. Thero will bo logsos in somo dircctions and geins in othors. Thezo two lines of trade may bo tuken a8 ropresonting tho articles which would be most alfected.

Ilogn ware dull and about 10c lower, closing at £1,10@1.55, ‘Tho enttlo and shoop mavketn wero nnchanged, Tho passongers of tho City of Washington are boginning to toll their story, and what thoy re- Iata {8 not at all to tha crodit of tho Captain of thnt veseol, Lvidently it was nothing but sheor luck that prosorved thom and the erow from in- stant and horriblo denth ; and whilo no ono will grudgo this good luck to thoso who wero saved, 10 ono ean show why it should sbiold the Cap- tnin, if tho investigntion which has just beon ordored by the Canadisn Governmont should find him blamablo, Ono of tho passongora hna published in tho Now York papors a five-column accouut of tho disastor, and enys that it is duo to the criminal carolossnoss of tho Captain, who rashed on throngh tho fog day nfter dny at full apeod, although warned by passongers and sub- ordinntes thmt lo was going too far north. Everything conspired for tho dostruction of the Atlantie, but tho daglight, the placo whero shio struck, and tho woather, all co-operated toward tho escapo of tho City of Washington, Thoro was somo hopo of saving the vessel, but it parted amidships yostordny. MR, COLFAX AN DIT MOBILIER, Mr. Colfax seoms nnxious that Lis connectlon with Orodit Mobilior shoud bo kept boforo the people. The press of the country would vory gladly drop tho subject sinco he las retired to privato lifo. But, since lis intontion is an- nouncod of roviving tho investigation of his caso ‘boforo the next Congress, it ia portinont to ro- viow it In tho light of the now ovidonco offored in Mr. Drow's lotter, Ar, Drow is a practicing attornoy and lobbyist in Washington, having algo somo conueclion with tho Custom-House cages arising in Now York, Ifis home is in Bur- lington, Vt. o writes to Mr. Poland, tho Chair- man of tho Credit Mobilier Investigating Com- mitteo, that, whilolobying in tho intorest of a cortain cotton claim in 1868, ho saw the $1,200 choclk, which Onlies Ames sworo that ho gave to Mr. Colfax, in tho hands of Amos, and that Lo also saw Ames presont this chock, payable to 8. 0. or bearer,” to the Sorgeant-at-Arms and Teceivo tho monoy on it, one $500 bill and soveral £100 bills. Mr. Drow oxplains that ho haa not mado this etatement bofore beeaugo ho was in Europo at tho timo of the investigation and did not roturn until after Congross adjourned., 1le did roturn, however, bofore Onkes Ames diod, for ko tolls in his letter to Br. Poland of his having mentioned to Mr. Ames the circumstancos uuder which ho saw tho 21,200 check, and of having asked who finally received the monoy. Mr. Amos’ nnwwer, A0 Mr. Drow says, was, that it was * nono of his businoss,” Tho only important disagroement botweon tho tostimony of Oakos Ames nnd that of Mr. Colfax ‘beforo the Commitiao related to the payment of this check. DIr, Ames sworo positivoly that ho gavo the check, not the monoy, to Mr. Colfax ; and Mr. Colfax sworo just as positively that ho novor received the check from Mr. Amos, It Mr. Drow's statomont i accepted, therefore, it givos additionnl strength to Mr. Colfax's ovidenco ovor that of Mr. Ames. The circumstance which militates against its accopt- suco is, that My, Drow delayed making his stato- ‘ment until after Mr. Ames died, when he had amplo time to make it bofare, thus depriving Mr. Ames of an opportunity to bring rebutting ovidonce or explain tho alleged circumstances undor which Mr. Drow saw o check which was ‘mado payable to S, C. or benrer.” But, oven if it be adwmitted that Mr. Drow's statement, coming, as it does, after tho doath of Oskos Ames, is worthy of credonce, and that it establishes a8 o fact that Mr. Amos did not give Mr. Colfax tho check as ho stated, this dispores of ouly ono foaturo of the cass, and by no meaus the most important. The testimony of Mr. Ames and that of AIr. Colfax up to this poiut agree. Mr. Ames produced before the Committos s statoment marked * 8. 0.," show~ ing on the dobit sido twenty shares of Credit Mobilier stock worth £2,000, and 886,72 interost dne from Mr. Colfax ; on the credit side, $534.72 cash paid by Mr. Colfox, and adividend of Union Pacific bouds worth £1,552, thus oxactly balanc- ing tho statemont oxclusive of tho $1,200 item, Mr. Ames says that ho dolivered an oxnct copy of this momorandum to Mr, Colfax, and the lut- ter admits that he may have reccived o stato- ment of the amount of monoy which Lo had to poy, “on o slip of paper,” and that bho did pey Dr. Ames tho sum of £534.72. Tho main foct was admitted by Mr. Colfax, viz: That ho paid 2563472 for stock that was worth §2,000 at par, and actually worth two or three times that amount st the rate of dividends it wos then paying. The only discrepancy in the ovidence, thus far, was Mr. Ames' statemont that ho had submitted the wholo memorandum to Mr. Colfax at tho timo of the traneaction just 08 hie submitted it to tho Committes, while Mz, Colfex claimed {fhat tho most thot was given him in tho way of momorandum was the amount of £534.72 “on o slip of papor.” The £534.72 was the sum which Mr. Colfax claimed that ho subsequently donnted to Mr. Ames on account of tho Inttor's fiuancial em- Larrassmonts—a gift-onterprise which Mr. Ames could not recall to his mind, Coming to the $1,200 chock which Mr, Amos claimed to have given Mr. Colfax in payment of dividends collectod for hia account, we find tho flrst {mportant contradiction in the testimony. After Mr. Colfax had denied that ho had over received tho chock, and that he lad over seon {t beforo it wns produced in the presonce of the Committee, ho added : * Now, I could not live had §1,200 added to my incomo withont ro- membering it very positively,” Bubsequently it was nscortained that Mr, Colfax did have 51,200 addod to kis iucomo about this timoe. Tho check for this amount, marked “ 8, O. or hoaror," was paid June 19; Mr. Colfux doposited a like smount in his bauk June 22, Whon (his discov- ery was made, Mr. Colfax clddmed that tho de- pouit of $1,200 of that dato conslsted in part of o $1,000 bill which had boon sent through tho mail by Mr. George I, Nesbitt, n Gov- ornment contractor, Novertheloss, it ap- poors that Mr. Colfux did add §1,200 to his income about this timo * without rememboring it vory positively,” or that, if ho did romembor it vory positivoly, ho withhald the fact from the Committee, It i3 not necessary now to dwoll upon thoe curlous circumstances that Mr, Nos- Dbitt, & caroful businoys man, should have sent $1,000 bill in o lotter to M. Qolfax, when Lo made other quarterly romittancos of tho same amount in tho usual business way by ohook ; that this monoy como at or near the very timo that Mr] Amos claimod to have given tho cheok, sud that|Alr, Colfax should have added just $200 to his doposit of that day so na to mako it cor- rospond to the amount of tho Ames chock. 1If, thon, wo admit that NMr, Colfax's statoment in rogard to the *8, 0.” $1,200 ohocle was cor~ reot, ns backed np by Mr. Drow’s ovidenco com- ing at this lato day, a fair stntoment of Mr, Col- fax's cnso is s follows: (1) That he mado a spoech nt South Bond, Ind,, long bofore tho In- ventigation, which wag nccopted by the publie, and ospocinlly by the Republioan nowapapers, aa o comploto donial that ho over had ruy connoc- tion whatovor with Crodit Mobilier; (2) thnt, according to Mr. Ames' ovidonco and his own admisaion, ko paid $694.72 for §2,000 of Crodlt Mobilior stock, worth porhaps 300 por cont; and () that Lo was in rogular recoipt of quartorly gratuitios of §1,000 onch from a Governmont contractor. Thisian cngo which wo should not think Mr. Colfax would bo anxious to urge froquently upon public considoration ; and this is precisely whera he will stand if ho shall succeed in induoing Congross and tho poople to nccept Mr. Drow's atatoment a8 conclusive that ho nover recoived the $1,200 ehock, o will do woll to drop it as long aa tho peoplo aro contont to lot it rost whore it {a. GEN, 0. 0, HOWARD, The Attornoy-Genoral hins certified to the Boe- rolary of War that Gon. Howard is not respon- sible for any dofalention by his subordinates be~ foro the asct of 1867 ; that undor that act he and his subordinatos aro responsible both in eriminal and civil solts, Though criminal prosecutions of longer date than two yonrs aro barred by tho statuto of limitations, there is no lmitation against a civil enit by tho Govornmont. o fur- thor docides that, under tho act of 1867, Gon. Toward, boing dotailed by the War Dopartmont for sorvico ns Commissioner, may bo tried for any dofaleation by a conrt-martial. There ia n Iarge doficit in the money of the Treedman's Burenu, and there is ronson to sup- poso that n Inrgo amount was disbursed upon fraudulont and forgod vouchors, Thio principnl doputy of Gon. Howard has boen nccused of impropriety, but Gon. Howard has mudo tho causo of this man hisown. When an attempt was mado to investigato this matter some yoars ago in Congross, Gen. Butlor so manogod mat- ters that thoro was o whitowashing roport, Tho ground takon was, substantially, that s model Christian like Gon. Howard wea not to ‘be convicted upon & complaint made by such & gcamp 88 Fernando Wood. Gon. Howard, as Commisasioner of the TFroedman’s Burean, sot apart a large sum of money belonging to that Burenu to ostablish tho Howard University st Washington. That Uni- vorsity has, according to a lato roport of tho Trus- teos, property, ronl, personal, and mixed, to tho valuo of 81,051,168, Thoro aro 8218412 invest- od in bonds and notes, of which 2117,000 is loan~ ed upon notes of individuals ; £20,000 invostod in stock of tho Young Mon's Christian Association, and 11,250 in bonds of the First Congrogational Society ; and thoy owe $94,000 ‘borrowed money upon which they aro paying 8 por cont interest. Tho annual income of tho in- stitution is §82,600, of which $6,000 are recoived from students, and $£20,000 from its vast proporty of ,all kinds. Its expenditures aro £32,800, of which $7,000 are for interost on its debts, Tho rost is for salarics, etc. Tho University, with over ono million of dollars of property, including $213,000 cash invested, has an incomo thorofrom of $26,000, and pays out 7,000 for borrowod money, leaving a not income from the proporty of $19,000, or Joss than 2 per cent on the valuo. Gon, Hownrd has boen President of tho Uni- vorsity, and during tho last five yoars lLas been oxtromely liberal towards it, making donations of large sums of his own money. Though nominally President, ho has been abrent from the city, and on that account has declined any salary. Recently, some one hins obtained nccesa to the records, aud found that, on motion of Sonator Pomeroy, one of the Trustees, largo sums of ** back-pay” have been voted the Genmeral. Tho recent oxhibit made by Fred Donglass denies veho- mently that any monoy was paid him that he had not earned. On comparing the list of donationa mado by Gen. Howard with tho money voted to him for services nover rendored, thoy correspond so nearly that it indicates that what ho gavo with one hand ho got back in the other, and that, while enjoying tho roputation and glory of & libéral benofactor to the University, ho was ro- ceiving quiotly from the institution a sum oqual to his gifts, Ilis list of donations foots up £16,006, and his receipts §17,583, o ko ia at this timo $677 ahead. It is a curious thing, also, that while Benator Pomeroy was, as ‘Trustoo, vot- ng away tho money of tho institu- tion to Gen. oward, tho latter, as & Christian of established reputation, was certifying to the peoplo of Kansns tha Pomoroy was ona of tho purost and most oxemplary Christian statesmen in tho laud, and that Kansas ond tho wholo country would suffor greatly should his piety and his examplo to tho rising gonoration bo withdrawn from the Seuato, About tho semo time, the Rev. Dr. Nowman was cortifying to the Mothodist clorgy- men of Iowa a liko charncter for Brothor Harlan, and begging them to soo that the rocipiont of Durant's check for $10,000 was re-electod to the Bonato, Wo do mot doesire to question Gen. Ioward's honesty, or his pioty, or hig Chriatian roctitudo; but wo think It is his misfortuno that thesn things aro forover pushod be- foro the public, and insisted upon ns . complete anuwer to unsottled accounts and full answer to apparont deficit. It is his misfortune that tho sqund of moen at Washing- ton who make a trade of their religious profes- slons hiave been unmasked and exposed as hypo- erites. 'Ihoso mon, with or without his consent, bavo always included Gon, Howard in thoir list of unusunlly-rightcous and notoriously-Chria- tian condjutors, Thoy have worn the clonk of religion to hido their enormitios, and now Gen, Howard has, from association, to boar the sus- picion which attaches to that wholo braod of trafickers in Christian profession. It may bo sel down as genorelly truo, that any man who froquontly makeu publio parado of Lis Chris- tinuity I8 a rasenl, Qon, Cluseret, who took an active part in tho Fronel Communintio strife, hns rocontly writtou o lottor to Senator Conkling, of Now York, com- plaining that the Bolgian authoritios will not al- low him t0 go to Bruwsels, to attend to somo busiuess, bocauso tho Fronch Govornmoent haa fssuod o domand of ostradition against him, o claims to bo an American citizon, and only smonablo to American laws, and thorefore do- mands tho interferonco of tho Amocrican Government in his bohalf. As Gon.

WISE'S BALLOON-VOYAGE, Tho undertaking of Prof. Wiso, and hia neso- cinto, Mr. Donaldson, to cross tho Atlantic in & balloon, {8 undoubtodly & dangorous one ; it may ovon boa foolhardy nswoll s an unnocossary vonture. But thoroecan bo litclo quostion that tho trip will bo mado, if unforesoon accidonts do not provont it. Tho fact that in the Temporate Zonos thero i8 constant flow of alr from wost to ocost, with o doflection from tho oquator, {8 known by every moteorologist to bo just as cor- tain as tho corront of tho trade-winds in tho Torrid Zone, and to bo duo to tho operation of tho samo causgs, to wit: tho heating influ- onces of tho sun, and tha rotation of tho earth upon hor axis. It is not difficult to undoratand tho genoral law of air-movoment, The land and wator which compone the enrih's surfaco are heated by oxposuro to tho solar rays, aud aro most highly hoated whoro thoso rays are vortienl; the avorago position of the lino of greatost foreo being near the equator. Tho su- porincumbont air becomos hoated, by radiation, and risesin consequenco; its place being supplicd by cooler air from gronter Iatitudos. Tho hoated air cools aa it rises, nud nccosanrlly flows over towards tho poles, Wo thus have a system of circulation established in ench homisphere. In tho northern half of tho globe the air at tho sur- face of tho enrth tends southward, and {8 com- ponsated by an upper current that touds north- ward, . The alr, liko any solid body, is carriod round by tho daily rotation of the esrth on her nxis. Tho volocity varios with tho latitude. At the oquator, all objects movo at the rate of 24,900 milos in twenty-four hours, or nonrly 1,040 miles por bour ; while at the poles tho forward move- mont of rotation is nothing. Mence the veloci- ty docronses with an increaso of latitudo ; being 000 milos per hour at 80 degroes, aud noarly 620 miles at 60 dogroos of latitude. A volume of air that is cansed to movo southward or mnorth- ward, by tho action of the sun, retains its orig- innl enstward velocity for somotimo, and changes it very slowly, ss o consequenco of friction, Ilenco in passing nporthward in this hemisphero, its original eastward voloci- ty being grontor than that of the surface over which it *blows,” it moves fastor than the earth at the latter place, nnd gives the phenomonon of wind from thesouthwest, Sim- Harly, in moving southward, it lags bohind, and sooms to blow from tho northeast. In tho North- orn Lemisphere tho wind always tends to tho right of tho original impulso; as do all other moving bodios, from the same cruso. Tho ten- doney of n swift-moving railrond brain to run off tho track to tho right, is & familiar examplo. Without stopping to describo the way in which theso two forces operato, in conjunction with secondary causes, to produce s “‘set ™ of wind in othor directions at difforont portions of tho earth's surface, wo may note that the upward rush at tho equator is supplied directly by air from the Torrid Zonoe, which causes tho surface phenomenon known s the trade-wind, blowing from tho northoast in the Northern Hemisphore, and from tho southounst in the Southorn Hemi- sphore. It also causes an upper current, which in the North Temperate Zono moves stoadily {rom tho southwest, Experionco shows us that, oven over the land, tho motion of this upper ourrent is steady and continuous, though tho air of the surfaco may bo laghed into sugry commotion. And sctonco confirma this with lhor reasoning: tho chiof cauges of moteorologieal disturbance lie near the earth's surfaco, and their offects are lost in tho upper rogions of tho atmosphero, It is well known that most of tho woathor-changes in ‘which wo talo a practical interest occur within one-third of o milo from the ground; though clouds often oxist at o much greater nltitude. Honce the wupper air is comparativoly free from irregulatity of move- mont or condition. Wo may add that while tho upper current is equally cortnin over tho occan as over tho land, being duo to the opora~ tion of a goneral caueo, it is ovon loss linblo to disturbance. ‘The conditions of tho atmosphere must bo unusually disturbad if the balloon-voy- agors oxperionce any back-sut of curront, or any deviation from o sereno course from tho time thoy riso above the usual cloud-besring rogions of the atmosphere till thoy again pass through thom in thoir descent to earth—or wator. Thoro is, howevor, room for grave doubt that this curront would carry & balloon to the com- mercial part of Europe, or oven to any pottion of that continont. The duo northeast course from Now York would carry the air-ship over the Arctic Oconn, noarly midway betwoon the north of Russin and tho coast of Bpitzbergen, where the extromo cold would condonse the gas so much as to put a summary ond to tho journoy out of sight of land. It has been snggosted by ono scientific authority, thet the balloon will make Sweden or Norway, which is pos-~ blo. 'Fho conductors of the trip aro un- derstood to expect thot they will bo able to follow tho courso of the QCulf Stream, and striko land somowhere in tho southern hrlf of Furope, his is oxceodingly problomaticnl. If, howevor, 1t wero possible to caleulato with cortainty on a satisfactory course (using the last word in its nautienl sense), thoro are still many sovero risks to bo rmu, most of which can only be measurably provided for. The voyagors may makoe allowanco for the unavoidablo exosmosis, or escapo of gnu through tho matorial of the balloon, but they cannot be sure that thoy will not pasg through a snow-cloud that will forco a doscont into mid-ocosn. It is probuble, tao, that groat physical difficulty will bo oxpo- rienced in bronthing a highly-rarofied air for soveral days, especially by those who Lave had no oxperionco in the uppor atmos- phore; aud tho result may bo light-hoadednoss, in its motaphorical as well as litoral senso, that would mnke the family anything but o Lappy ono loug ora tho close of tho jonrnoy. If, howover, tho courao of tho uppor-a'r cur- rent bo such as to carry tho balloon towards tho middlo of the weat const of Liuropn, nud if thoro bono one of the nccldonts that may well Do dreadad, the journey will probably oceupy from threo to fivo days.

In viow of this, tho Committoos have rocommended tho appointmont of & Commisslon of Inquiry to thoroughly iuvestigate tho subject and catablish nomo deflnite rolations betwoen the Conrt and tho ‘Trensury, and that, until somo aotion is takon, no fresh promotions or sppointments shall bo mnde, The English press vory gonerally approven tuls effort to suppress tho jobs and abuses which have so long provailed In the Lnw Dopartmont of the Government. THE HIOKEY OASE, In the light of recont oxaminations into tho oflicial conduct of Michaol Hickey, Captain of Polico in tho Bouth Division, the public must inovitably como to ono of two docisions—oither Michnol Hickoy is a porsccuted ofiicial, about whom thieves, gamblors, and prostitutes are con- tinunlly weaving their toils, sockiug theroby to impair his officioncy and impoach his good namo; or, Michaol Hickey is using his official position for corrupt purposes, escaping detoction in each Inatance by artifices and pubtorfuges which would do no discrodit to Slippory Jack himself, It 18 no new thing for Mr. Itickoy to bo tho sub- joot of invostigation. Ho has mado n moro ox- tonded roputation by virtne of the part ho has played in theso investigationa {han from any particular skilt or success that ho has mads in his profession, Indood, the thieves have arrosted him about a8 ofton anho has arrested them, and they havo brought him to trial quite 8 industriously as he has thom, Now ho iaup again on tho samo old chargo of corruption, only this timo a wenlthy aud dashing oyprian is tho witnoss against him, Ior statement of tho cose may bo summed wup in & fov words. On tho 2lst of March last, tho bagaio of this woman, Lizzio Mooro, was onterod by thieves in the night, and sho ‘wes robbed of $2,000 or 3,000 worth of dinmonds and watehos, Tho thioves turned the proporty over to ono Geary, ‘“‘a fenco,” in polico par- lanco, who ngreod to realize on it, and, aftor gotting it, turncd informer. Two days after the robbory, Capt. Hickey wentto the bagnio, osten- sibly to find out the detatls of tho robbery, so that he could mako the anrrangements necessary to appreliond the thioves. Two or threo days aftor this visit he ecalled upon tho woman again, and road & lotter fo hor, purporting to bave been written Ly o Pittaburgh pawn-brokor, eotting forth that Lo had a diamond cross, two dismond rings, two watches and chaing, property worth £2,000, which could bo redeomed for §330. Tho woman informed Thim that she swould willingly pay that amount if tho jowelry should prove to be hera, ‘The last time Capt. Hickoy called upon her ho informed Ler that he bad got the jowelry, and that sho must como to his ofice and identifyit. The next day, she and her sistor went to tho polico station and identified it. Sho thon propured to pay the £330, whon Capt. Hickoy informed her that she was mis- tukon in the prico. It was £430 instoad of £330. Sho thon went to tho bank and drow £300, and borrowed §180 of hor sister, and, as sho handed him the monoy, ho orderod hor to put it iu an onvelope and place the envelope undor & pillow in his slooping-npartment, which she did, Ho then handed hor the jewelry, and she doparted, aftor boing cautioned by him not tosay anything abont the affair, as it might lead to trouble, and, it any one should inquire whore she got tho_ jowolry, to may that it was left at her door. Upon tho strength of this wom an's testimony and that of ons or two othor witnesses, tho Grand Jury indicted Gonry, ‘ tho foneo,” and three of tho partios im~ plicated in tho robbery, but failed to indict Capt. Hickoy. Thero woy' nothing to show that sho was au unrelisble witness. Her testimony wasnot shaken in the least by tho cross-questioning to which sho was subjected by tho Prosecuting At~ tornoy. If, them, sho was o good cnough witneas for the indictment of the othor partics, why was not her statoment sufticient to indict Capt. Hickey also? Tho facts wero sbundant to raiso a grave doubt whother the jowels over loft Chicago, It was pretty clear that sho had paid him tho monoy to got back her jowolry, Hundreds of prisoners Lnve been in- dicted upon much {limsior ovidence than this. ‘Tho Board of Police have now the juriadiction in his caso, and it is to bo presumed that neither political nor other influencos can roach thom or sworve them in tho least from a thorough and straight-forward invostigation of tho chnrges, It is to bo presumed also that Capt. Hickey will hinve to stand or fall upon Lig own merits. Tho matter is a very simplo ono. Did Capt. Hickoy tako 8430 for restoring this woman's property, and if g0, to what use did he apply it? That is the whole case in a natsholl, and Superintondont Washburn and his associ- atos on tho Bonrd can onsily determine theso questions, It is their duty to do so, and to do so immodiately, and sottle now and forovor thoso overlasting scan- dals about Hickey, Tho public aro gotting tired of thom, If Michaol Hickoy is an honest and incorruptible man, porsecuted continually by thieves, gamblers, and herlots, cetablish that fact, protect him, and punish the blackmailora. 1f, on tho othor hand, Dlichaol Hickey is o knave, who is using his offieinl position for corrupt purposes, and whose influ- enco is 8o strong, politically and otherwiso, that o cannot bo indicted for his offonses, lot him nt lonst bo removed from the polico. It is about time that this continual outcry and fusa ovor lickey was stoppod in somo mannor. 'Tho pub- lio will look to the Polico Board, therefore, to sottlo the ofiicial and moral statns of Hickey ounco for all, Tt ia thought that the mew statuto in New York dofining the erimo of murdor bas virtually repealod the law of capital punishimont, This is lott for murder in the flrat degree, which is ad~ judgod only whoro * doliborato and promedi- tated design to offect death ™ is proved. Itis thought that it will be noxt to impossiblo to provo this in any caso. 'Tho two convictions under the now law have beon in the Walworth and Glilen cases, in both of which the intent o effact death was clearly established, Walworth hiad written a noto to his father to como to his room in the hotel **to sottlo family dififeultios.” The fathor had only been in the room & fow moments when young Walworth killed him. Yot tho jury, which wna evidontly disposed to award justico on the evidenco, could not accept # doliberato and promeditatod design” agproved, and brought in a conviction of murder in the gocond degreo. Gillon was the rufllan who stabbed his wife to denth in the stroot bocause sho refused to leavo hor fathor to live with him. The evidenco was o cloarly against Lim that ho plonded guilty of murdor in the second degrao, and tho Court accoptod tho ploa under tho ballof that the evidonco nocossary to & conviction n tho firat dogroo could not bo{ob tained. It would probably have beon equnlly impossiblo to convict Putnam, who was hangod undor tho old law, of murder in the firat dogreo nndor the now law. In point of faot, it is obvi- ous that his was not s * deliborato and premed- itated dosign to offot denth,” but a homicide ro- sulling from tho sudden angor of n drunken fit and o cnsual altoreation bolweon him and Mr. DPutnam, whom ho killed. If there woroe somo limitation of tho pardoning power in casos of conviction for murder, the now law might not bo 80 objoctionnblo as it now Is. Evon now there is gomo morit clalmed for it, sinco the dofini- tion of tho crime of murder is less obsoure, and thoro is loss opportunity for confusing tho minds of jurymon, Formorly it was oithor o caso of hanging or very trivisl punishment. Now tho erimo of murder is protty sureto be punished with life-imprisonment. ——— Tho Cincinnatt Commercial isanxious that the opposition to tho Republican party in Ohio ehould unite upon somo candidate for Governor who has never boon hoard of boforo in politics, and who would not go into the place tainted with the projudicos of tho old Democratio or Repub- licon party. It belioves such a man conld bo olocted. Tho advico is good and timely, but the diffieulty scoms to bo in finding such n candidato, Porhaps it would bo moro correet to say that tho difficulty is in gotting rid of the political lincks who hang on and push thomselves to tho front in every movemont now or old, detormined to run the machine, It would not be very bad, na tho Commercial suggests, if the poople would tako up some farmor of strong ‘horse sonso”™ and lot him il up tho CQovornor's room for a timo with reapors, mowers, and & genoral assort~ ment of agricultural tools, in place of plans for political asylums, railronds, canals, and othor in- torunl improvemonts. A change in the drift of things, whatever diroction it might take, would bo likely to be an improvement on the present condition, The Commissioners appointed by the Now York Legislature to consider tho advieability of converting tho Adirondacks intoa State park, bave reported favorably on the projoct. They do not recommend any oxtensivo or contly im- provomonts, but favor the purchaso of thelands, consisting of about 834,000 acres, in ordor to presorvo tho timber, and thoroby save the Stato from the dangor and loss of floods, Thoy slso approve of tho projoct 88 n sonitary moasure, and feel cons fident tuat the growing favor of this region a8 a summor regort will rapidly increnso its im- provements without any large expouditure on the part of tho Stato. In considering tho vast spaco of tho proposed park, the Commiseion ro- minds the pooplo that it is not large in compari- son with that sot apart at tho hendwaters of tho Yellowstone by the United Statea Governmont, which is resorvod as a park not from considora- tions of public policy, but simply na & plonsure- ground for tho paople. Mra.
