a rather strange looking sight,
but the Captain says it is perfectly
feasible and possibly it is, although
it seeps difficult. We hope that:the
next, few sears will perfect. some
means for traversing the isthmus;
and we think final success is sure.
A NEw line of stelmships is pro
jected-which Will make the trip from
New York to Liverpool two or
three days quicker than is now re
quired,and which will be safer than the
safest ships now used. It, is propos
ed to take advantage of railroads on
both sides of. the Atlantic, running
on the water only when it is neces
sary, and using the ships for passeq
gets-only. The ships will be built
with a wadi larger number of dis
tinct, air tight compartments than
' those .nowi used, making it almost
impossible for them to have any dan
gerous leaks and they will be besides
much more comfortable and luxur
ious.. The.new company propose to
make their line as much superior,in
speed 'and elegance to the ships' riow
in use as the passenger trains ale
superior to the freight trains on the
railroads. That such a line of steaui
ships would be largely patronized is
unquestionable, and it would be au
other step in advance, a. following up
the progress which the pre'ceeding
lines have made. The Cunard, White
Star, National and Guion lines are
fiery good, but ships for passengers
only would be a decided improve
ment over, these which make freight
the first consideration.

"Sparkling and bright is the Patri
ot in its new spring dress this morn

Some more Jeffersonian revival

Please -observe the truthfulness and

Tilden is in great grief because
Jsfferson and Jackson resemble
other men in having but --one' biith
day in a year._ He wants-to write
another letter]; but the two patriOts
whose natal days have just been .cel
ebrated- are about the only subjects
the crafty Samifel cares to discuss. ,
Six hundred; English girls recently
came to this country on one steamei,
prepared to accept any respectable
occupation or—offer of marriage.
Does 'our tariff permit the, importa-'
tion of marriageable English girls to
the prejudice of our American sis
ters? . We think not and trust Con
gress will stop this disastrous immi
gration of untaxed English goods.
A, most healthy sign of, the times
is the revival of the study of the
principles of the democratic party.—
Patriot. The study ought ,be apart
of every college course and , should
be taught, just the name as the dead
nguages are. Why should students
be taught the dead langauges of the
Hebrews and not the dead principles
of. the Democracy? The principles
are of slightly later date and are
just as much apart of our history as
is the Revolutionary war. '

!-- IMPORTANT: NEWS.
Star Solite Cases.
WASHINGTON,' April
lug , his decision this morning upon
the motion to quash the indictments
in: the Stir Route cases Judge Wylie
said the motions in the case of Dor
sey and Brady were 'similar, the
. principd point bade being that the
defendants had not been.bound over
by the commissioner to await the
action of the grand jury, and also
that the jury found indictments with
out the cases having been properly
brought before them by order of the
court. The' Judge then read the
Maryland law of 1722, upon which .
these points were based, and review
ed the history of the adoption of the
legal code of the . District, and define
ed the force of the Maryland statutes
which' are claimed to constitute a
part of the District code. The de - -
cision he arrived at, after an exhaus
tive -consideration of elf' the acts
subsequent toi that organizing-the
District courts, and that act itself,
was that the law 1722 had disip-
Oared from the District code along
with all the Maryland laWs of the
same class many years ago. After
reading the statutes bearing on the
consideration of this court., the Judge
decided that the court certainly had
jurisdiction, in the premises. As to
the' claim that a conspiracy had not
been established: by the indictment,
he said it was only necessary to con
sider whether or not the defendants
had by their joint -talon endeavored
to obtain. or did obtain, money or
its equivalent from the government
by illegal methods. After reading
statutes at length the'Judge gave his
definition o(conspiraey, and review.-
ed carefully the portions of the in
dictmentcontainingpeseallegations,
and said in his opinion that the evi
dence presented therein •was strong
enough to warrant the proseention
of the defendants.' lie therefore de
tided that the indictments were goOd
and sufficient in all partieulars.
The Judge then ',took up the straw
bond cases, which - were to this
court from the Police Court,,and in
which case motions to quash had also
been made, the principal point 'made
being that there *as not sufficient
- evidence to justify the charge of ton
spiracy, and that all the proceedings
ofiliedefendants were strictly legal,
even if the facts charged in the in
dictment Were established. The
statute prohibiting a preseniation of
false bonds, Or forged petitions, or
letters intended to defraud the Unit
ed States, the Judge said, would
cover these cases: In the indict
ments there-were several charges of
such overt actson . the' part of - the
defendants, and the indictnaents were
sufficient in -these cases also. The
Judge said he ha not given the sev
eral minor points d
the same consider
ation
in the decision as the above
points, because he thought they were
already disposed of by the acts of
Congress which applied thereto.

Vogel & Co., of Hong Kong, - have
done a large business in hemp and
silk goods and other business be

Rencently• the French and English
consignees_of the'il:ro have received
several cargoes of cheap, fourth - class
silks, in the place of first-class, which
had been ordered and paid for. The
arrival of the ship Richard Robinson
in ,New York on -Saturday the Bth
inst., - with a cargo from the same
house, exposed an extensive fraud of
the same nature Several New York
and Boston firms had Purchased a
large quantity of hemp - Worth nearly
three hundred dollars a' bale. 'On
opening the cargo it was found to
consist principally of Canton matting
worth less than five dollars -a Laic:.
The bead• of the bouielit Hong. Kong
sailed, as. it .is supposed, for France.
Detectives in the latter country have
endeavored to find him, hut he has
been traced, it is believed, to Italy,
and his capture is well nigh despair
ed of, although his pursuit is pushed
as rapidly as possible. The silk
shipped to Europe by Vogel & Co.
is about twelve dollars a bale.
It was paid for at the rate of nearly
three hundred dollars.
The losses to the consignees, thus
far reported, amount .to $500,000.
One of the Boston firms rece:ved one
hundred bales of the so-called hemp,
and it was worth about a sixth of
the amount paid. Of 7,500 bales
consigned as hemp, on the Richard

The other 5,000 are matting. . The
loss to the consignees by the swindle
is $125,000. The firm victimized here

County, charged under sections 5,515
and 5,522 of the United States Re
vised Statutes, with obstructing a
United States Supervisor of Election
in the discharge of his duty and with
performing other unlawful acts to af
fect the result of the election at said
poll. The District-Attorney asked
and übinined the leave of the court
to amend the information ,as to
its phraseology in the counts
for conspiracy. The work of select
ing a jury caused considerable iiis•
cussion 13etWeen counsel, the attor
neys for the defense maintaining that
the prosecution have no right to
stand jurors aside. Col. Haskell and
Attorney-General Meltion and Mr.
Dallas Sanders spoke in support of
the right, of the Government to stand
aside the jurors. At the conclusion
of the argument, Judge Bond said
he would not decide the question
then, but - would .allow the prosecu
tion to stand the jurorsi aside and
proceed with the case, and if, after
considering the, question, he agreed
with the counsel tor the defendants,
he would grant a motion in arrest of
judgment in case of conviction. Elev
en jurors were selected, consisting of
three white Republicans, three white
Democrats and five colored Reffuhli
c4ns. The .panel was exhausted.

De, Lamson
The case of Dr. Lamson, the
American ; physician, convicted by
circumstantial evidence of the'mur
der of his nephew, is'creating consid
erable excitement on account of the
interest manifested in his fate by the
leading papers of- this country, and
we give below the - closing sentences
of Mr. Montanye Williams' address
to the Jury in his behalf: .
.Gentlemen, I now come to what is
to me the inostrainfnl part of ,my
duty. I have told you that you haye
the life of= a fellow creature in yot r
hands. You have three people to .
consider. This man has a wife. Who
stood - by him in the hour of his pov--
erty ? That wife. Who stood by,
him when he came to meet the law ?-
That wife. Who would stand , by
Win now, if the exigencies of the law
did n,ot forbid it, in the dock? That
wife Did you notice on' the first
day that she came here?- r -a thin,
spare Lowe came up ! to - that dock
and to&. him by thtlr hand, saying
by her presence: "Though all men
be against you, though all the world
be against you, in'my heart there is
room for you still." Gentlemen, they
say that; women are inferior creatures,
but in the hour of tribulation it may
he said of women :
When pain and anguish wring the brow,
A minister lug angel thou,
- The wife . had sworn at the altar to
"love, honor and obey " - .him. >lt 'is
well that compilers of that solemn
service put love first—for where there
is woman's love the other things Ail
low as a matter of course ,• and up to
this moment the wife of this prisoner
has stood, so to' speak, by his side.
Gentlemen, if the. , prisoner be Con
victed and his life be sacrificed, what
a legacy is there for her I What a
reward for all her true nobility and
for alrihat is softest and best in life!
a widowed home. an accursed iife
and the poor little child never toz;
be taught to lisp its father's name,
its inheritance the inheritance of
Cain I I Inake these observations,
gentlemen,
,not with any desire to
make you deviate by an halr'sbreadth
from the path of duty which you are
bound to tread, but I make them to
beg,, to entreat., to beseech you, with
Viese last tones of my voice, not to
found your verdict upon spectilatiire
theories and visionary ideas, but to
' test and-try and weigh, accurately
weigh, every particle of the evidence
—real, solid, cogent evidence—
before you come to a verdict A
verselo this man. Into your hands
I commend a brother's life; no mat
ter what our, nationalities or our
creeds may be, by the common tie of
human nature all men are brot hers._
I can only beg you, lastly, to eitend
toward him, your brother, that upon
which,' in my humble judgment, all
true religion is founded. Do unto
him, your brother; ns you would, if
you were placed in such dire straits;
that your brethren should do unto
you ; and may , the Lord direct you
