Jefferson Davis, tbe embodiment of
Ibe ''lost cause," kss buried in New
Orleans, last Wednesday under the
Jackson monument. How tbo spirit
of Old Ilickory must have writhed at
this desecration of his monument,
for it is on record that Jackson once
upon a time was in favor of hanging a
South Carolina conspirator who was
plotting against the government of
his country. But in these later days
treason is considered a virtue, and
the defenders of the nation are de
nounced as "coffee coolers," "mendi
cants," and such names as the most
bitter malignity can inspire.
Tke Great Cro Bin Trial.
The greatest trial that has been
known, for many years to the Ameri
can people, was the Cionin trial just
ended in Chicago, after over three
months deliberation. On last Friday
the case was given to the jury, and
from that time until the verdict was
rendered on Monday last, both sym
pathizer and opposer were on the qui
vlv'e to ascertain the result. The ver
dict, fixed life sentence upon Cough-lin,-Burke,
andO'Sullivan, which was
somewhat of a surprise, as it was
generally coucsded that it would have
to be a death sentence or an absolute
acquital. The verdict in behalf of
Keunze of three years, was a seiinus
blow to the "little German" who ex
pected to secure one of not .guilty, as
did Bcggs who wk-s :-et at liberty.
It was certainly a wry mixed up case
and it was almost impossible
for a jury to convict the men of be
ing the actual murderers, and do
justice to their own consciences.
The Chief does not believe in cap
ital punishment, except in very ex
treme cases, and docs rot believe in
if tlieu, tit any great extent and does
not. bc'ieve much more in. that kind of
circumstantial evidence that weaves
a -y ebb around a man's neck, principal
ly becjusc there's r. chance to make
a reputation for one'.? self. The evi
dence while it was extremely damag
ing the prisoners, yet much of
it seems to have been of that kind
that wwild not warrant the jury in
bringing in a verdict of capital pun
ishment. While four of the sus
pjcH bave been found guilty, yet
there remain jirave fears in the
minus of many that the real .
derers are still at large. T hile it is
a matter of conjecture with some as to
their guilt, it is morally certain
that the deep laid plot has not yet
been fully developed, and perhaps
never will be, and the real culprits
name will probably remm a mystery.
Nearly all colds are slight, at first
bet their tendency is to lower the
syatcm that the sufferer becomes a
ready victim to any prevalent disease
The use of Ayer's Cherry Pectoral in
the beginning of a cold, would guard
against this danger.
Everything suitable for Christmas g!f is
