Fascination of Crime There would seem to be in many minds something resembling fascination in some" great and startling crime. While vet the echoes of Guiteairs deed were echoing-throughtttho nation,.4hc press generally predicted, that he would be the recipient of favors from sentimental Tvomen and mawkish men, and the prediction has been verified. Now that he ' has been fouhd guilty tlift. scenes so disgusting to all good tastes are intensified. Judging from the sickening expressions of sympathy with tha wretch, it is probable that the final act of the tragedy, when he shall be swung into eter nity will bo a sort of glorification. In hundreds of cases with'n the last dozen years, the display lia been the same, and neither reason nor ridicule has been ahle to pre vent occurrences which should consign all the participants to lun atic asylums. There is some sort of strong fascination about deeds of enormity; a: healthy mind would look upon the perpetrator with loathing, but bne afflicted with this mental disease will lose sight of the depravity of the deed through an assumed sympathy fot the perpetrator- If the exibtinjr tests of insanity, as given at mur der trials benccepted, it is diffi cult to see how a single one of the persons who have been tendering a sort of ovation to Guiteau, could be punished, should one of them take a notion to kill the prisoner or one of his guardsmen. Perhaps there is a morbid vein in the mind of every man, but the thought will come up that the prevailing mental or rrforal disea&c is the outcome of the vicious liter ature of the day. The countless, volumes of printed fiction detail ing the adventures of imaginary villains, and the highly embellished reports of crimes 'actually commit ted, all have 'a tendency to per vert the sensibilities in the man . ncr to J3v.hichf wcjjiave alluded. There is too intimate a mental contact befween tr.minals and others; familiarity, with the ways of the depraved, an acquaintance with the thoughts and motives, as- delivered through the medium of the printing press havo been spreading a moral disease. It is preventing the decent 'administra tion of justice, it has broken down, to a great extent, the protection which all should have in person and property. The scenes in oui court rooms would sometimes be more fitting if ihey took place in a mad house. Like other disease which beepmc epidemic, this ma) run its course. There is an anal ogy between the laws which con trol the body, and those which govern the mind, and it is to be hjped that this mental ailmen will in good time disappear as do kindred ills and other deadly contagio- At a niov.i... ..,,. u London last Wednesd y to protest against the outrages now being committed upon Jews in Russia and Ger many, the" Episcopal Archbishop of Canterbury, tho Roman Catho lic Cardinal Man ling and Baron Rothschild took a prominent part. Cardinal Manning spoke in favor of resolutions declaring that the conduct of those countries toward their Jewish fellow citizens tpnded to degrade those. governments in the eyes of the world. Thi Eng lish Government was Detitioned to interposo its friendly offices should occasion offer in behalf of the per secuted Israelites. The present conduct of the Russian and Ger man governments toward the Jews is without excuse or pal i tion in this ce itury of enlightenment and religious tolerance. Tnc laht English census of tho nutnber-of ie igi us a Iherents was . mostappropriatelyp'acedin cbarte of tho local newspaper reporters, they belli? presumablv posted on 1 such matters. Astnte, The resthete, Oscar Wilde,has been led by his lawyers to believe that he has some claim to a million dollar plantation" in Louisiarh, which his uncle boucrhl "befoah the wah," but which through fail ure of some of the payments, be came repossessed by its original owner some years ago. So that it i3 not a purely aesthetic errand that takes the young apostle of the sunflower and the lily to New .Orleans. Desiocbatic papers in the East are starling in earnest to work up a boom for Tilden in '84. They say that he -is -the only man that the Democrats can elect 'fo' the Presidency. If this is so it would leave the party in a bad way if Tilden should die. NEW TO-DAY. Brewery Beer Saloon The Best Beer 5 cts a Glass. Hot Lunch every Day from 10 to 12 A.
