The evidenco on the part of the prosecn- tion in the McKee trinl closed yesterdny, and tho defense will now enter upon the task of sttempting to impeach the witnesses whose ‘estimony has so dircetly sustained the charge m tho indictment.” Owing to tho tima con- wumed in the McKre case and to be occupied mn the trinl of Msourze, which is to follow, the tvial of Gen. Bancock, originally sot for 2ext -Monday, has boen postponed without day, A spirited debate was brought out in the House yesterdny in connection with tho bill seported by the Comumittee on Appropria- sions proposing a large reduotion iu tho ap- oropriation for the Wost Point Military Academy. Mr. Farg, of Maiuo, and Uen. Junuuur, of Ilinois, took up the causa of the national training school for the army, wd vigorously opposed the attempt to erip- pla nnd belittle the institution by a sweeping veduction of tho pay of instructors and sadets, Tl-will toward West Point, rather than n spirit of cconomy-reform, sppenrs to b0 the ren! motive of the Domocratic mem- Yors of the Committee.

One of the blunders of tho closing hours of the Forty-third Congress—the failure to detect the real meaning and effcct of tho smuggled-in amendment increasing to 1 cent per ounce the rate on third-class mail mattor ~—was reotified yosterday so far ay the House is concerned. ‘The bill restoring the old rate of 1 cont for every two ounces or fractionnl part thorcof of third-class watter was pnssed without division, and if, as may ba contident- 1y expocted, the Senate hastens to undo the minchief which it originated last winter, tho express companies will lose a Louauza, and the people who want to c2nd transient news- papers to their frionds will be no longer com- pelled to pay outrageous postage, Among the indictments returned yesterday by the Grand Jury of tho Uuited States Court in this city, threo * trun Lills" wero found against Mr. A. C. HesiNo, onu against Jaxx Renyt, and one against J. F, Hovr, Inte Depnty-Collector of Internnl Revenno in this District. 'The gencenl charge in the indict. menta is that of conspirucy to defraud the Government, and it is sald that the sction of the Grand Jury in thesa clses hns not been taken without such testimony as would war. rant a reasonablo certainty of conviction, It iy plninly ovident that politicsl influences or considerations bave hiad no bearing upon the due course of tho Inw, and that upon the question alono of their guilt or innocence of the crimes alleged tha indicted parties must expect to staud or fall. A now cxplanation of the frequent breaks in the line of the United States Direct Cable Compnny is furnished in a communication to tho London Z%mes of yestorday by the Chair. maon of the Board of Dircctors, who confl- dently asserts that the ruptures of the cablo &ro not accidental, but are the work of stock- gamblers, who invariably contrive to learn of tho brenks hours and in some cases days beforo the damage occurs and is duly au- nounced. The suspension of comumunication through tho Direct Cable nover fails to result in sending up the stock of the Anglo-Ameri. can Company, and the Chairman of the Bourd of Dircctory, backed by tho Times, urges o publio inquiry, with a view to discovering the connection which s believed to exist butween the cable ruptures and the advantages derived by the “knowing ones” on the Stock Ex. change, The Chicago produce markets were irregu- lar yesterdsy, Mess pork was leus active and 5@106 per brl lower, closing ot $10.22} cash and $19.60 forMarch, Lardwassctive 8ad Ge per 100 1vs lower, closing at §12.05@ 12,074 cash and $12,20@12.92§ seller March, Meats were in better demand snd do higher, &t 7{o for boxed shoulders, 10jc for do short ribs, and 10¢ for do shiort clears, Highwines were, do .ud unchanged, st $1.06 per gal- lon,.

It is not intended to apply this policy to the snvage Indians within the Loundaries of Knonsns, Nebraskn, and Texas, as they aroin no condition to cxercise the rights of citizen~ ship. Prof, Seevye’s plan meets with great favor in Washington, and it is thanght prob. ablo that it will be ndopted if the Btates in- terpose no objections, The Sulten of Turkey, who slthough on general priciples is not, stiietly speaking, well up in the mysteries of finance, baa yet an inborn respect for the sciencs of nnmbers which reflects not o little to his credit as n preferred creditor, It will be remembered tnat the Ottoman Government recently, in consideration of the low stateof its revenues and the bulky condition of its monetary obligations, decided to issue coupons for the poymont of one-half the interost on its debt, thie payment of the remainder to bo deferred indefinitely, English holders of Turkish promises to pay growled voclferously thereat, nnd it seems that the Sultan was not willing that tho arrangoment should apply to him- self, Itis mow stated that his Imperial Ma- jesty, who is interested to the extent of £8,000,000 in the national indobtedness, must noeds retain the full amount of the interest thereon in order that the dignity of his pecu. liar surroundings may not suffer for lack of funds, WHAT BHALL BE DONE?P The City of Chicago is ngnin the vietim of crednlity in publio justice, This time our misfortuno comes to ug in the shape of a di- vision of opinion between six of the gontle. men who constitute the Supremo Court of the State of Dlinois, A sick mau, whose lifo depends upon im. medinte reliof, is left to grow sicker or perish beeauso tho six physicians in attendance are divided in opinion. The man to whose thront the robber lolds the knife appeals to the six policomen standing near, but, theso being divided in opinion. tho robbery goes ou to complotion. Chiengo, cursed, over- whelmod, plundered, and disgraced by a City Government so dishonest and depraved that their prices can be quoted, looked forward to the timo when even bythe termsof the fraud- ulent charter thera could boan deliverance. But tho City Government, ns part of its pol- icy, proposes to perpetuato its oxistence, and the Mayor who was elected in 1873 for (o years insists that ho is anthorizod by law to Told office until April, 1877, It is aaid that'| ono of the carpet-bag ofiice-holders in South Carolina, when urged by bis friends at home to resign, as the State was bankrupt, an- swercd that ho had looked over the condition of things closely, and found that thera was at legst ono moro year of profitable stealing, and ho would not resign until that was ex- Lousted. Our readers mny make the applica- tion ; thera ia no danger of their being equal. 1y divided in opinion. Tho City of Chieago ia placed ihan ex- trnordinary position. We have an nverage of tive millions of dollars of **flonting” in- debtedness, which cnnnot be ealled indebted- ness, because ns indebtedness it would be illegal and void. This five millions of dollars of outstanding paper bearing interest repro- sents money expended and s corresponding amount of Laxes not collected. ‘I'his sum is annuelly increasing. While the whole vol- ame of this paper hias the odor of irregular- ity around it, no citizen hns had the idea of repudinting it. It is novertheless aubstan. tially payablo on eall, aud can only be paid by tho collection of taxes. And just here comes {he diffienlty, The payment of taxes to this City Government has been pertially suspended, and will, we fear, be practically wtopped hereafter, ‘'he want of publio con- fidence in the bonesty of the City Goveru- wment, largely due to the fact that it foiatedtho present eharter upon thoe people by fraud and tallot-box stufling, Lins been hitherto offsot to some exteut by confidence in the Supreme Cowrt. 'Tho respect and faith of our peoplein the judiciary hns never wavered. They have ptiently endured and submitted, relying on the courts, that when the proper time camo tho legal tribunals would interpose their au- thority and compel the ballut-box stufers, robbers, and Llwckmailera who govern the City of Chicago to permit the people to hold an clection foranew Government. Under that hope, for over a year the peoplo of this unfortunate city have as law-abiding citizens submitted to the rule of a gang of self-ap- pointed officers nud legislotors, The appenl to the Court has Leen made, and the Court wag divided! 'Tho usurpation, therefore, continues, and oflicial ecrime sits defiantly in its places, and dewnands obedience to tho decisions of the Supreme Court. What is left t tho people of thiscity when they are abandnned by the courts and betrayed by their officera? What is loft to any people when they are re. duced fo tax robbery? When the law bo. comes o snare, when governments become op- pressors, when courts are “divided,” and when tho robber holds his victim by thy throat, the right of self-defenss and the right of revolution remain, Have the people of Chicago auy other means of redress ? The wnnicipal credit of the City of Chicago is In peril. As we have said, four or five millions of dollars of city notes are outstanding, prac- tically on call. ‘The City Government, in the absenca of money, ia iasuiug more of thin pa. per cvery dny. The City Government thero- fore exists upon the credit given to that class of paper. ‘Iho city scrip is issued, money borrowed, aud tho Court-House crowd flourish 88 the rulers of the metropolis.

The city dogsn't want these ndditions to the force—in point of fact, it doesn't want Marshinl GoopEnn Limself, who is occupying n sinecuro posi- tion, The people of this city aro burdenod, overwhelmed, and crushed with taxes, and they will not submit to any more taxation, especially at the hands of n man who is drawiug £3,600 out of the City Treasury for doing nothing.

A cable dispatch to the New York ferald of Tuesday Inst brings somo very sensntional nows concerniug the movowents of the ox- tremo Eoglish Litualists, taken from tho Lon- don Morning Post. 'The substanca of the in- telligence is to the purport that this section of the English Church, numbering 100 clergy- men, with a congregational constituency of 25,000 men and 150,000 womon, are intrigu. ing with Romo with thoe viow of sccession from the Episcopul Establishment, nund that they have submitted a merworial to the Pope setting forth certain propositions ns well asa petition. In their propositions they submit, first, that their own Bishops committed cc. clesinstival suicido in solecting the cowmplete ascendency of tha State over the Church; and, cousequently, they proposa to go over to the other extreme of Ultramontanism, which demands completo ascendency of the Church and the priest over the Stato nnd individual, Becond, that their consciences do not permit them to remain subject to thiese falso Bishops, Third, that they recog- nize the Pope ng the head of *“ God's Church” on earth, Fonrth, that they accept all Lo teachou, infallibility and Vatican de- creos included, In view of these proposi- tions, which ore quite handsome, to say the lennt, thoy asle the Pope to consent to the formation of a United Anglican Papal Church, like that of the Armeninn rite, in communion with Rome, but with a national independence. "Phoro are sume concessions asked for. In cato the Vatican will not ad- wit tho validity of their order, thoy nsk that it consent to conditional reordinations, the Popo granting a dispensation permitting those who are married to continne to sorve as priests, while thoso® who are single oro to remain single, and in future celibavy to be the rule. Tn their worship they wish to use the English language except the read. ing of the mass, which can bo in Latin, “If these concossions are granted, the petitionors will secede from the Established Church of England aud form a United Anglican Chureh, recognizing tho Roman Poutiff as the Su- preme Head,” Tho above is the substance of the move- went ag reported by telegraph. It is a very important matter—always provided it betrue, ond thut it may not be true i highly prob. able, sinco the news originally comes from the London Morning Post, and i retuiled at second hand through the New York erald. These two papers, to putitin a mild form, aro very often mistaken in their announce. wments of news. The probability, therefore, is strong that the news {u not true, Assuming that it oy Lo true, it iv the logical drift of Nitualism, The Church of Romo is where the Ritualists belong, They have no sympathies with the Established Chiurch. Both in the forn and wpirit of their worship, they are Romanists, Wedo not fancy, bowever, that they will land into the bosom of Rome or array themselves in tho garb of Ultrawontanisia without find- ing thewselves confronted with the most serious practical obstacles, the first of which will be the indisposition of the Holy Futher to make any concessions of any duscription. Tho Pope is nota good concoder, Ilo has mado some concexsions to Germany, but ouly under compulsion and under circumstances where lie was obliged to make a virtuo of necessity, Agnin, befora they take their consers and candles and comwence their march to. Rome, thoy will vory seriously considor whether they can afford to lose their benefices and ccclesins- tienl property, which'under the law are con- trolled by tho Established Church, The av- erago Briton is commercial by nature, and the average Anglican clorgyman quite 8s com- mercial and fond of the fat things of this world ns tho Iayman,—perhaps more so, It will be peculintly distressing for him to leave all these things behind and go over to Rome empty-handed to reccive a vory dubious wel come, Pilgrims with empty purses are not specinl favorites at the Vatiean, ‘Taking all things into consideration, we fenr that this cxodus is tho gensation of o day, which will be speedily denied. BARREY AND CARTER, The vote on tho Centennial appropriation loan of 21,600,000 slows o shocking state of things in the Chicago delegation. Mr, Fanwrin voted for it, and “Our Cantun' contributed his 3§ couts to the support of his engle with promptitude. Dut Bridgeport DBanxsy, where was ho? The faithful fol- lower of Famwern, tho eolleagne of Our Canren,—voted against them! 'This is well nigh incredible, We fear that tho only ten- able renson iy the birth of somathing akin to jenlonsy of Our Canter in tho mind of Dridgeport's Bansey. 'The former's eagle, clutching the summits of the Rocky Moun- taing with its talons, extending one wing over tho great lakes and with the other shading the torrid waters of the Gulf, pecking with its beak amid the hills of Now Eugland, and dipping its toil in the bitlows of tho broad Pacifie,—this ornitho- logicnl marvel, wo say, has quite cast in the slinde poor Bannex's thirty-seven bills and fourteen constitutional pmondments.

The mighty IlinnisoN broke down, it is truo, in Lhis spoech at Philadelphis, but poor Caur- Frzp did not even have a chance to break down. 'Then, how many times has the one got his nnme in the Record, whilo the other appears thero mainly ns piteously saying to Bramve, “But—but—me dear sir—mo dear sir,” while his interlocutor made fun of him oud the Houso langhed merrily at his dis. comfiture, And finally, do not three Conn- greasionnl Districts gratefully hail the Hon, IlarmsoN as ** Our Canten," while only oo unsavory section of one district lays claim to ** Bridgeport Banyex "? The Chicago River soparates the homes of the {wo, and wo fear that some- thing ns dark and noisoma separates thoir hearts. This ought not to be. Each needs the othor. Togother, they mnake a middling sort of man, They should be roconciled, nl- ways vote the same way, and sppland each other's speeches. 'Tho time is short, The 7th of November, 1870, nppronches with great swiftneus, Until then, let BanNey and Oazn- TER pull togother and not apart. Let Banney produce his stated number of amendments per diem and let Carrrn fly his eagles in every direction. And then, lot them pack up their amendments and fowls, come hume, and reflect upon the melancholy opposition of the peoplo of South and Wost Chicago to second terms—in their cases, THE SCANNELL SOANDAL. Tho imperfection of our criminnl law has reccived another striking illustration by the result of tho famous Sossyery trial, Jomn SoaxyzLy is o Now York rough and politician. Tis brother Fronescs was shot, in 1870, in an affiray in tho saloon of ono Tnoyas Doxo- nug, After a year's lingering decay, he died of tho wound, Jouy was suspocted of firing tho shot, but this proved to be an idle rumor, During the next year ho dovoted himsclf to murdering DoNonug. Practice made him porfect, so that, aftor two unsuccessful cttempts, he put five bullets into his victim's - body, and hod the plens- ure of rending obout his funeral within aweele, This was in November, 1872, 1o was tried threo yenrs ago this month, The Jury disngreed. A second trial was post. poned nud again postponed. Wirnrraat A, Bescy, his senior counsel, kept falling sick whenever there was any danger of his client’s being tried, just as Davio Duprey Fienp and lis wife, it is said, take turns in belng sicl whenover the TwEED suits nre liable to bocallod. When the matter had been fore gotten so long that SoANNELL was the **senior prisoner” in the Tombs, he was brought up agoin. This was last November, jnst threc yoars after the murder. The defense was insanity, ‘Tho fato of a Lrother nud the sus. picions entertnined about the murderer, work- ing upon the snacoptiblo heart and brain of a fat rough, hed, it was gaid, induced insonity. Poor SoaxNery was mad. e, his wifo, and his counsel wero nll deeply affected by tho unhnppy circumstanco. Ilis lips twitched (whenovar any juror looked at him) in the most approved mnd manner; hin wife cred over a lavge part of the court-room; nnd hix lawyers paioted the horrors of insanity in a mastorly manner, The play wnswell played. It was a bit of low comedy, but it was nated as Ligh tmgedy throughout. The curtnin fell on a vordict of not guilty on account of in. sanity, Then thero was a litle entr' acte, ‘The murderer was duly remanded to the Utica Insane Asylum, where ho wns comfort- ably lodged. A few days pessed, when tha curtain rose on the farce thaut concluded tho performance, The State Commissionor of Lunacy and another doctor certified that BoANNELL wos gano ; the certificate was sub. mitted to o Judge of the Bupreme Court ; the mecessary order wans fsuned ; and Joux Bcannriu s froe again, He conveniently stayed, insane just long enough tokill his man, and then got over the ittle mental trouble in timo to begia to enjoy life again, Such is the adwministration of Justice 1n Now York in the last instance.
