Information has beep received at thp
.Wav Departmept in lyasbipgton to the
effect tliaji Sitting Bull and iris warriors
are shqjring an ugly and an insnbordi-

of the f}ip t d is estimated at 7,Q00, of
‘which 2,500 «V8 jvpli arpied and
‘•quipped.
The.facility With which the perpetra
tors of heinous crimes escape the penal
ty of the law is causing a dis
cussion of the question as to ho w the
peaceable, * law-abiding people of the
country are to be protected against the
drunken desperadoes, especially those
who may hav.e wealthy or influential
friends to uudertake their defense. It
seepis tp be a well established fact tliat
a man may be shot down in the streets
without auy justification or provova-
tion, and yet his murderer cannot be
convicted of the oflense, no matter how
many witnesses may be present, or how
brutal the crime may have been. Tbe
facts may be given in evidence and not
a doubt of tbeir truth expressed,—the
charge of the judge may be able and
unequivocal, yet a jury of upright and
intelligent men may have tbejr yiesys of
justice so warped, or their sympathies
so operated on, that ten out of twelve
of them may be in favor of a verdict of
virtual acquittal, a verdict that wpuld
shortly le.t loose upon the community
the very murderer whose crime had just
filled it with horror and iudigatjon.
Certainly this looseness of juries can
not be attributed tp tl^e approved senti
ments of. the people, for public opinion
expresses itself with no uncertain sound.
The fault is-with our criminal law—the
principle that binds justice hand and
foot, and epens to the guilty every loop
hole of escape. It is a false doctrine
often liaiped upon in criminal trials,
that “it is better for ninety and nine
uilty mpp tp escape, Mian that one in
noctnt man sbqnkf be punished,” and
it seems that all the machinery of th.e
law is set to work to help the niiiety-
nine guilty to escape, while the inno
cent victim whose life’s lilood cries
justice is entirely forgotten- How well
was this fallacy met by Judge Lump
kin, when he said, “The ninetv aud
nine guilty meu have already escaped
and it L time to put a stop to this cursed
principle.”
Based on this dangerous and false
maxim is file law that’allows the prison
er a much larger number of peremptoiy
ehalleDges than the State. This gives
liis counsel the power of always getting
a certain class of men on tbe jury to
suit his case, and how often have we
seen jurors objec f ed to merely because
they were honest, firm, law-abiding cit
izens. who would be sure to keep the
oatji “a true vprdict to give according
£o thp lpw and the evidence.' 1
What great uh'.un has the criminal
class on the country that the outraged
law should itself haste to give every fa
cility to escape its penalry ?
It is a pernicious provision that
man shall be tried by a lury of his
peers, for the peer of the criminal is
the criminal. 4-” sbouljl bo tried by
just and intelligent jurors, apd the law
should not allow a criminal, however
innocent he inay be sentimentally pre
sumed to be, to sort oqt and reject all
just and intelligent jurorp.
The law on the subject of murder
seems to pp too clear to be misunder
stood, but the refinements of criminal
practice have made the Code and Su
preme Court reports almost a nullity.
Xhejre are prominent and able lawyers
who can scarcely believe there is such
thing as murder, unless—tL>ey are em
ployed for the prosecution; aud it may
not be much wondered at that manv

crime, dp uuejer-estimate the impor

have their judgement so obscured by
the intricacies of a legal trial, and their

Doubtless Mr. Hayes thought he
would patch the Democrats papping
when he called an extra session
Congress to meet so short a time after
the expiration of the last one. Proba
bly if the cipher telegrams of the re
publipans for'this month could be pro
cured, they would expose a deep laid
scheme to ele et Gaifield speaker by a
brilliant dash coupled with their dis
honest tricks. But it is not as easy for
their plaus of usurpation to be carried
out now that they are unable to protect
fraud by force. So both houses of con
gress .vere organized with Democratic
officers, excepting of course, Hr.
Wheelerwho is ex-officio President of

h is already bean speaker through two

Radical, apd Wright and Kelley, Green-
backers.
The Radicals seem to take their loss
of power in both houses as kindly as
could :be expected’ under the circum

power, but no doubt, j£ey ggish then-

Both Dr. Felton and Mr. Speer go

When a sensational story js started

the account of Judge Lester’s getting

the people in his court room a few
weeks ago,
Gen. Fiizhugli Lee, of Virginia, will
deliver the Memorial address iu Atlan
ta, and preparation^ are being made fer
the most interesting ceremouies ever
held there.
The Crawfordville Democrat is about
to nominate Gov. Jos. E. Brown, Gov.
Ilenchel V. Johnson, and Hon. W. H.
Fi 1 on for Governor at the approaching
election—that is when it does eventual
ly approach. We admire this broad
and wholesale way of cloipg the busi-
pess.
Rev. Dr. Teasedale is conducting an
interesting meeting at Thomasville.—
He is a minister of rare ability, perse
verance, spirit aud power; but h.e has
one or two little fanjts that take somer
what frem his usefulness, and some
good brother ought to tell him plainly
what they are.
Two dashing female tramps are going
over the State, riding on the railroads,
putting up at the best hotels, and rifling
around the pities in parriages. Peca-
sionally they haul a hundred or two
dollars out of some confiding yonug
man. “Beware, oh, beware.”
SEED TIME.
The intelligent newspapers have
nearly finished planting another very
large crop of corn. The vigilant farm
ers have bought ft large number, of
mules; intending to save the precious
grain from weavilp.
The abundant snpply of corn pro
duced last year by the newspapers,
seems to have been shelled and shipped
in order to avoid the wpavils. After a
prolonged rape ftgaiust the verpain, it is
now returning by way of Tennessee in a
merchantable condition. The original
Georgia shippers are of course unable
to identify the particular lots produced
by individuals. Bnt this is no : mate
rial. They simply pay freights all
around the circle aud take such lots as
are handy. This may be cheaper than
to buy it outright, and almost as cheap
as to make it in the ground rather than
in the newspapers, but the calculation
is difficult, and will be made at another
time or later. The demand for this
traveled corn is good.
Now if the planters wish tp rival the
newspapers fts producers of corn they
have only to do one particular thing.—
They.have perhaps unwisely bought the
usual supply of gnauo, but the error
can be turned to account. Let them
apply it all to their com lands, and only
give their cotton a proper culture. By
this simple method they will be able,
without extra labor or expense, to make
considerably less cotton, and so obtain
proportionally more money fQr it. Tbe
further advantage of having no corn to
buy cannot now be appreciated, inas
much as it has never been experienced
under tlie new regimi.
The planters are admonished, by one
who wishes them well, and deplorts
alike their ill luck and their folly, not
to let their colt-on get a sipgle sniff of
guapp, whatever pice happens. Their
disposition tp take good advice has been
so of teg and so generally exemplified in
the past, there is certainly no reason to
diitrast them now.
