Which ofcouise increases the value of ihoney, and compels the sale of speculative stocks in order to raise it. Some of the banks are suspected of being engaged in the transaction, and lamentations are long and loud. This making of "corners" as it is called, has become a difficult undertaking, however, for it requires bold men and (abundant capital since the famous Black Friday, to stir the "bulls" and "bears." Crime just now seems to be flowing in an unusually bloody rut. A murdered man found in the street, brained and robbed; another poisoned after making a will in favor of his poisoner; a woman stabbed by a strumpet; a boy cut to death by his cousin, and both lads less than fifteen years old; a bar-room tragedy in which a young German attendant was forced in i self-defence to shoot a ruffi in dead; anoth- ! er?a penitentiary bird?beaten to insen- i Sibility while attempting with his gang to kill the proprietor: a druukeu wife killed by a drunken husband?surely all this in r three days is enough to satis'y any appetite disposed to sup on horrois. The criminal population by the way. are lb extacies over the decision of the Court of Appeals that the Court of Special Ses Sions was illegally aud unconstitutionally organized, and nine-tenths of the penitentiary convicts are seeking release. Writs habeas corpus have been granted in nearly two hundred casts, aid the prisoners brought from Black well's Island to the Tombs and other prisons. The cousequence is that there are three aud four in a cell, hopefully awaiting rtlease. As these jail birds cannot be tried twice for the same ollence it is a reasonable supposition that they will soon be let loose upon the commuuity. Of murderers await fug trial there are twelve.

OUR WESTERN LETTER. Lafayette, Ind., April 15,1872. The steamboat Oeeanicus, which plied between New Orleans and Saint Louis arrived off Cairo on Thursday last about four o'clock, A. M., and while her eighty passengers and the majority of her crew were sleeping in their berths, both of her boilers exploded. The crash was terrific; the force of her explosion lifted the whole upper woiks of the steamer into the air ' and then they came crashing down upon her hull; the frightened and half naked travellers were ei;her crushed and mangled by the falling timbers or were scalded * " ' A it- - 1 -1 J ny trie escaping steam, as ine uwksuuu p ipers of the steamer are lost, no knowledge is possessed of the number or names of those killed. It is supposed that the l'st will number fifty or sixty, excluding those saved in a dying or wounded condition. The steamer was one of the largest of her class and only a few years old. Since the burning of the Stonewall Jackson on the lower Mississippi 110 disaster, so terrible in detail, has occurred on western rivers. The Illinois liberal It'publicans have at last male their announcement. Last week they issued a call to their brethren in the party to rally to the support of the Missouri platform. The call is signed bj' j men, eminent since .the formation of the Republican party. Ex-State treasurer Kimball, Gustave K >eruer, ex-Secretary of State, and later minister to Madrid. J. K. Dubois, late editor of the Chicago Ttepub'ir.an and several other names well known and res Dec ted in State politics. In Michigan a call has also been issued and is Mgoed by men of the same respectability as tin s 1 of Illinois. Indeed the sreat majority of those Republican politi cians north of the O lio who have taken active part in this scheme, are men who have largely aided in building up our party. v 1 moc fumilinr household w ?rds in the early days of lfc.~>G and th?re abouts, to ariti slavery and free soil people are attached to these rTtate cills. They helped bui'd one party, and now they start afresh.
