It is immaterial, wo suppose, whether the pistol was londed or not to eatablish the fact that an acsault Lad been committed. Does the Graud Jury, or Ar. Roed, deny thot McDopald committed an nsssult upon eGarcy 2 Why, thes, wers theso two notorious ruflang not indieted for the assault committed by thom {n tiio presenco of twenty witnesses 2 The public wiil have no dififenity in deciding why theso men were ot {ndicted. It was known from tho bogiuning thst they would not be indicted. 3cDopald knew whou he went to that snloon that ho would nover bo punished, and probably that he wonld never be prosecuted. He knaw that tho politicians would as soon think of sending ono of thoir candidates to the Peni- tentiary as to sand bim; that, in fact, they conld batter afford to send lalf-n-dozen candidates to Stato Prison, becanse thoy conld find plenty of candidates, whereas thero is but one Mile Me- Donpld. 1t Is snch proceedings fs this that are bringing tho administration of justice into contempt, and encouraging the criminal clasaes.

Ho has probably induced more yoting men to rob their employers, to Lecomo thieves and moral outeasts, than any other ten men in Chi- esgo.

Beecher has done many cool things, but this Jast requeot which he has made through his coungel that Tilton shall itemize all the injuriea which he has inflicted upon him,and placea cash valuo in doflars and conts upon them sov- erally, is tho goolest of all. In alegal point of view, this procooding shows that ho bas pettifog- gera for counsel, but the demand itself is not so extraordloary a8 tho impudence and effrontery which inepired it. If the Court should gront tho requost he has made, Mr. Tilton need pre- sent but one item, and that will 1) the whole bill, Lot bim presont his empty bomo to tho jury, and then it ho shows who emptiod it, he will ‘have no need to add any more items ; and then, a8 3r.

YOUNG MEN IN POLITICS. A now genoration of voters has grown up sincoe the War. Although possossed, politically, of a giant's sirenpgth, it has apparently concluded that it would bo tyrannous to use it lie a giant, aud has thorofore uot used it at all. Tho youny men of to-day are o latent forze in politics. Sov- cral rensons have combined to produce this re- sult. Tho youngest mau now eatitled to vate wan 8 yaars old wher Sumter was flred upon. Tour years of fighung left their marks on the miuds of tho fighters’ gons. Again, the political leeders of to-day arc nearly all ante-Wsr men. Bred in tho traditions of tho old school, thoy cling to thom. Tholr influence keeps down mon of different atsmp. We aro witnessing o political phonomenon similar to ono described 1 Bagehot's * English Constitution.” Mz, Bageliot says that Lord Pulmerston, by persiatontly retalning power {o thae exclusion of youuger politicians, and by haudlisg that power in tho old methods, detwyed tho offeot of tho flrst Roform bill for thirty years. Whon lo died, the flood-gates wors opened. A great populsr movement spravg sud- donly iuto being, Liberalism has dous more in the nino years siuce then than it did in tho fifty bofore. We may perbapa expect a siwmilar sud- den changa in our methods of goverument wheu tho race of War-statesmoen is oxtinet. However this moy be, the present control of old politi- cians 16 undoubtedly ome grest reason of tho presont political insignificance of Young Amariea. nofarious trade every day and ovecy night; they know that thero is rascality always going on in theso entablishmonts, and yot thoy donot in- vade his promises nor any othor over which ko exorcises protection.

From the other sido of tho strect rose another armed party, who hiad guessod ot tho movements of the lovers.
