Mr. Heney returns to us nftef fl long 6orlas of mijadventuros (includ ing mistrials, new trfala, and acquit tals) which had their climax In hit? decisive defeat for DIsftict Attorney ship of Ran Francisco. On his first vi:.lt hero, he bore with him a splen did repututfon as a successful rrcM cutor; judges bowed before him. jur ies yielded ail their seniles to his llicv eloquence, opposing com;.l wert to mm as clay In the hands of the pot ior; editors knelt ard w ors ed him; defendants, unable to Look on ni3 uroau. pure prow. Khriekxa their guilt, and plteously begged to have the pentitentiary doors placed be tween iham and him And after all. the prisons are not bulging with men whom Honey prosecuted. The reputation that Mr. Heney brings with him this time is tarnish ed; his invincible shield Is dented. Ve do not expect to see judges bow before him and take Instruction from mm. i nc old method of fukin? up juiies from among the enemies f tho defendants may be tried ag'tin, -rut never with the success that attended u before. Juggling with jury lists Is as reprehensible when done -iy li e prosecution as when undertaken by the defense. Subornation by moans or immunity contracts is not in such high repute as It was; when thieves fall out, honest men desire thct all thieves get their dues, and that mon ey shall not escape from giving testi mony against the few who may '.e prosecuted for political reasons. The Spectator desires to see the land robbers punished, and hopes they will be punished. But bociuse tho Government has employed the discredited Heney to prosecute them, we fear our hopes and desires are vain.
