ISfENING BULL
'BWWday, April IS, 1800.
.--v yUB X.ABI BOWBtiB.
Frem the night when the Hill murder was
■commuted, until the coroner's inquest upon
the body of Twitchell was concluded, there
l een a steady succession of the most hu
miliating and remarkable blunders. The po-
Bcerhovcments on the'fatal night formed the
flistgrave blunder, from the effect of which
the cause of justice has never recovered. The
delsy of the prosecuting attorney in entering
instantly upon an investigation of the premi
ses'tm the next blunder. The theory of the
defence, bv which a murder in the first de
gree was admitted at the out-set, was another
blunder. The hasty trial of Mrs. Twitchell
■and issequally hasty abandonment was another
(blunder. The carelessness of the prison
■Officials in permitting Twitchell to poison
ihimself, after they were fully ratified
-of his intention, was the worst blunder
- of all, unless we except the hasty and imper
■ feet investigation of the Coroner. Finally,
as if there were some special fatality that re-
quirecl everybody connected with the case
to commit some blunder, the undertaker c »r
-zied tbe suicide’s body to the house of Eaton
by mistake, and left it there, until this crown
ing stupidity was discovered and rectified.
The history of this case, with all its mis
. managements and mistakes, ought to impress
tbe public mind with the fact that our Ame
rican administration of justice in crimioa)
cases is wofully deficient, uncertain and un
safe. The whole standard of the detective
qnd’general police system needs a radical
reformation. It is not lower in Phila
delphia - than elsewhere. In some re
speets, it is probably higher than the
average. There is a large amount of intelli
gent material at command, which might be,
but has not been,educated to an equality with
the best police systems of Europe. Oar
Oourts are much above the American average;
and our prison system and practice are much
better 1 than ate be found iu most parts of the
country. And yet it is impossible to read the
proceedings before the Coroners jury on
Saturday without being impressed with the
fact that both the system and practice of
Hoyamentiag Prison are far from what they
ought to be. Twilchell announced his inten
tion to commit suicide the day before he d'd
tbe deed. The fact was made known to the
officers of the prison, and a keeper was or
dered to search the cell. It was known that
the suicide was to be committed by taking
poißon, and accordingly this sagacious keeper,
removed the pitcher, spoon and plate, and
one of two similarly deadly weapons, bui
omitted the little precaution of searching
the prisoner altogether. And yet D.\
Botcher tells us. that he thinks all proper pre
cautions were taken to prevent suicide '
We heartily endorse the suggestion made
by \ke Ledger this morning, that this mat
tier should not be permitted to rest here. Tns
mischief done by the carelessness or ineffl
eiency of ths prison subordinates is past re
pair. But notwithstanding the testimony of
one of the professional witnesses, that “it
all depends upon how much you ask for"
whether a druggist would sell halt-an- ounce
of prussic acid, it is not an easy thing to
procure that quantity of this fatal drug,
one or two drops of which are all that are
usually administered in officinal preparations.
Dr.. Butcher tells us that the poison taken by
Twitchell was Seheele’s acid, which is twice
or three times the Btrength of the hydro
cyanic acid used by our druggists. This fact
weakens Dr. Butcher’s theory that the poison
must have been procured on Wednesday, a
theory which the Coroner seems to have
accepted in his whole investigation. Bcheele’s
acid, which is simply a stronger kind of prus
sio or - hydro-cyanic acid, is not ordinarily
used by druggists in Philadelphia, its strength
, being so much above the officinal standard.
If it was used on this occasion, there is
every reason to believe that it had been ma le
expressly for Twitchell or procured by some
one belter versed in pharmacy than the sort
of,attendant in a drug store who might be
supposed to be capable of lending himself to
such a transaction. BuspicioD, as yet, points
. nowhere. But the ends of justice require
, that there should be a very different search
intodhe origin of this conspiracy than the
..hasty and inecnctnsive inquest of the Coroner.
, It is not improbable that the vial of poison
was concealed in Ttvitchell'e boot when he
first entered tbe condemned cell. His bo )ts
- were ,never once handled or searched, and as
, be w.Bfltinquiring for poison at the time of his
trial, there is no good reason to doubt that be
, pro cured it from some of his numerous friends

JWe have received the first .number of a
■JTew.Yoik.newspaper the avowed object ot
wfeiob is to educate<tbe American people to a
belief in theinadequacy of Democratic gov
rermnent,.and tbe aaficiency of Imperiilis n,
.and to bring about tbe coasequeßt result—
the destruction of this Jiepublic, and the ei
tabllebntent of an Empire in these UuiteJ
fitaies. Whilewe the felly, we
oannot,bat admire the courage of tbe man
•who devotes himself, his.time and money t ■
tbe.consnmmatioß of tbi3 tremendous scheme.
Tho individual who endeavored to bore a
tunnel .through the Alps with a radish, had a
hopeful and pleasant) task by tbe side of tills.
It is the case of one man against civilization,
experience, progress and the common seoti
ment of about forty million Americans, aadja
great many more millions of people of other
nations. Tnero have been blots to the eff’oc l
that this courageous editor was not alone iu
the woik. It has been darkly inliJAated tha'
ceitain European deßpots, Napfieou chiefly,
are the authors of itm enterprise, an 1 tne
contributors of the necessary foods. W
think, however, that this is highly improba
ble. European despots, as a general win.?
have discretion and sense, and not any vtfc't
amount of spare cash for missioaury pur-
poeefl. It 18 possible, for Instance, tbit it
would occur to the Napoleonic mind to con
vert bis own heathen before croßsjog the
; water to riutfeo proselytes. The French peo
ple have eot each affectionate devotion for
Imperialism yet, that their ruler can afford to
dispense with the persuasive eldqnenco ot
any such devout beiievef as the aforesaid edi
tor. ■ Besides, if the Empire really is blessed
nesß and peace, ob We are assured in the pros
pectusof this neW journal, it will be easier
woik to convince thß millions of unbelieving
Frencbmen who experience its beneficence,
than an at ion like this, whose people are prao
tically ignorant of its excellence.
We fear that the task would be somewhat
difficult in cither direction at the present mo
ment. This sagacious journalist declares
democratic government to be a failure just a 1
a time when, iB its pureet form, it has over
thrown the greatest rebellion of modern
times; when the old world, roused by the
mighty tiiumpb, begins afresh its upward
stiugcle toward the same condition of popu
lar liberty; when England is agitated by a
revolution which will mark the beginning of
a new and splendid era in the progress to
ward freedom; when, beneath the ashes of
Imperialism in France,the sparks of HbsralUm
are kindlieg-into active fisme; when Austria
is-casting off the shackles of priestly tyranny
and of ignorance, and is beginning to recog
nize the divine rights of the people; when
Spain has overthrown an imperial dynasty,
organized a free popular government, and be
gun to stride forward into a fairer future of
liberty and peace. This editor began too late.
During the first dismal years of the war he
might have found disciples among the luke
warm and the faint hearted. But the Ame
rican who doubts the excellence and endurar
bility of Republicanism now, is more than il
logical—be is a fool. Tne people who live
under Imperialism, and know something of
ihe operations of other systems, do not doubt
it. They are hoping fir it, praying fur it,and
working for it, with an earnestness whiob
proves tbeir hatred ot less liberal forms. Tue
dissatisfied Americans who have tried Imps
lialism have displayed just a 9 little fondness
for one man rule. M ist of the rebels who,a
the conclusion of the war, professed disgust
with things American, and left the country,
bave been observed to return with less oaten
talion than was made upon their departure,
very well satisfied to bear the ills of American
rilizenship. Perhaps if this editor would g >
abroad he would change his views. It is the
beßt thing for him to do if he isn’t saisfled. Wt
can spare him and his supporters very readily
It would be cheaper, too, than a continuation
of bis paper. To be sure, publication does
not cost a great deal, for his columns, are
filled with dolorous and complaining article
taken from Copperhead papers, the opinions
ot which he chooses to accept as indicative
of popular sentiment Bat paper and print
ing cost something, and unless he has N i
poleon at his back, and is striving to estab
lish an Empire here, in which he—the afore
said editor—may be Emperor, he will do
well to disband and begin life in a more hope
ful manner. If he is fond of difficult and
tensational schemes, we would suggest as at
easier enterprise the introduction of a fe n
Chinese missionaries to thia country and the
organization of an effort to convert the wholt
American nation to josh worship and a reve
rence for nine-headed idols. This would b.
mere child’s play to the Imperial project.
The recent occurrence in Philadelphia of
several extraordinary crimes has induced’a
good many newspapers—some of our own
Included—to allude to the city as rather the
wickedest in the Union. This is all nonsaaße
There is not a population ot the same size iu
the country that is not at least as wicked, i.'
not wickeder. Here i 3 a population of no:
less than eight hundred thousand —a 9 great a
ibat of the whole State of New Jeraey, or that
ofMarjland, or that of Connecticut, or oi
either of half a dozen of the Westernor South
ern States. If the crimes committed in eaco
of these States, in a single year, could be ac
curately ascertained, they would be found to
turpass in number and enormity those of
Philadelphia. As for the other great cities,
New Yoik, Baltimore, Chicago, BL Louis,
New Orleans aud others, each show a greater
amount of crime and vice, in proportion to
ihe population, than Philadelphia does.
There iB enough ot both here, in all con
science; but it is .puerile and unjust to exag
gerate the amount.
It is announced by cable that the Spanish
Government is about to send a naval com
mission to this country to purchase monitor
for service in the Cuban waters. It,this b
tine we hope the Bpa niards will not succeed
in their design. If any of the monitors chanc,
10 be in the possession of private individuals,
of course nobody can prevent the purchase;
but we sincerely hope that the Governmeu
will refuse to sell a single ship to be U3ed
against the brave Cubans. If the Spaniard.,
cannot conquer them without assistance they
have no right tq do it at all; an'd it is the uni
versal wish of our people th .t they should
not. If there ever was any diversity of sen
timent upon the suiject it has been changed
into common eympatny for the Cubans by the
atrocious cruelly practised by the Spaniards.
Their treatment of tbe rebels has been mo3l
ii,human and disgraceful; and if wo cannot in
terpose to put an end to such barbarity, we
can at least refuse to sanction it by supplying
the Spaniards with war material.
A bill has been introduced in the State
Senate provldiog for the appointment of a
deleclive who shall be at the service of the
District-Attorney in this city, to help him to
unravel and “wotk up” cases. Tnis is ab
very well so Car as it goes; but what shall be
done to make the District Attorney try ca3es
after they are unraveled and woiked up?
Mr. -Sheppard has, for a long while, held iu
bis bauds all the ibreads connected with the
attempt made to murder Officer Hill; the
witnesses are all ready and auxi .ua to testify,
and the alleged offet.'ders are within reach a
any hour of any day, and yet the case does
not come wp for trial. The popular opinion
is that it should be brought into court at up
early day. If it is not, popular opinion wll'
not vary respecting the cause of the neglect.
Mr. Anthony Trollope lias nominated Mr.
Char'es Dickens «s British Minister to the
