The assertion; An Act to amend Section 2,059, never had any firm foundation at best, j Chapter CXV, Title II, Part IV of the General Statutes, relating to recogni- ; zances. An Act to charter the Chester Me chanical and Industrial Building and Murderers have been convicted and hanged in States where public opinion 1 was very much opposed to hanging and where public opinion had, as it always has, and ought to have, a good deal of weight with the men composing juries. It was very difficult in the Webster case, in Massachusetts, to find twelve men not conscientiously opposed to the Loan Association, and to ratify the acts done by said association since its organization. An Act to amend Section 1,746 of the General Statutes, relating to the granting of licenses for the sale of in toxicating liquors An Act to amend Section 2,711, death penalty; but they were found Chapter 118, Title 3, Part 4, of the and Webster was executed. And the cases are few, if, indeed, there arc any, where an undoubted murderer has escaped conviction in a State where the death penalty is in force, simply because of opposition in the jury box to that form of punishment. The revised Old Testament threatens to provoke oven more criticism than the revised new one. Joseph’s coat is no longer a “coat of many colors,” or “crazy pattern,” but “a tunic with long sleeves.” The hippopotamus no longer “drinkoth up ariver andhasteth not,” because “he trusteth that he can draw up Jordan into his mouth,” but “though a river swells he is not afraid; fearless though Jordan washed into his mouth.” The “chariots with flaming torches” seen in a vision by Isaiah are “chariots with steel.” The woods arc not full of “satyrs” and “dragons,” but “goats” and “jackals.” The “na tion scattered and peeled whoso land the river has spoiled,” is “the nation tall and shaven whoso land the rivers divide.” In fact the old version as compared with the new reads as if the proof-reader had been through the ancient book and changed it to suit himself and put the “intelligent com positor” into a bad hole.

Washington correspondent of the News and Courier tells the follow ing: “A sensational story has just come to light concerning Arthur’s re cent visit to New York. When ho at tended the Evacuation day ceremonies he stopped at the Fifth Avenue Hotel. A suspicious character was caught prowling about the corridor in the vicinity of the President’s rooms. He was arrested and taken to police head quarters and disarmed of bowie-knife and loaded revolver. Ho declared that he intended to serve the President as Garfield had been served. There is no doubt he intended to assassinate the President. He was discovered by a guest of the hotel. The matter was kept from Arthur until he returned to New York, when ho found *lhat they had changed his rooms at the Fifth Avenue, and an explanation was made. Two detectives guarded ins new apart ment. On the last trip the President was much scared.” THE WORK OF THE SESSION. officers to eacli of the chartered col leges of this State.
