The Republican states men seem to have made a mistake in not committing their party more emphatically to the cause of temperance.

It seems that the Rev; Mr. Jenkins, I of Mansfield, La., was laboring under a "hallucination" when he shot and killed the Rev. Mr. Borden. Miss Butler, the young lady in the case, testifies that she never told Jenkins that she had been rained by Borden. This is rather embar- rassing tor the surviving clergyman.

We thoroughly agree with' the Judge. Better a black eye than a murdered man. Buckhardt tells of a strange mode of curing a vicious horse. He has seen, he says, vicious horses in Egypt cured of the habit of biting by presenting to them, whue in the act of doing oo, a leg of mut ton just taken from the fire.

Trouble was! n ached judgment against the city obtained by Mrs. on the first ballot when Butler county was Gaines. The State constitution limits called. This county had a divided dele municipal tax to ten mills of the assessed gation and the result was tho call of value of real estate. As the required counties to do away with the unit rule, levy would exceed this rate, the officials which was cairied amid great confusion, are placed in the position of either violat- showinir the strength of the leading can- ing the law they are sworn to obey or of put ting themselves in contempt of court tor a refusal to comply with its -decree.

But there was a trace ot blood in her cabin and mybtery enough to beget a long sequence : of murder and mutiny. What a pity to unravel such coil just at the moment it was getting in teresting.

The able Cbinesa statesman, Li Hung I Chang, according to an interview with a New York Herald correspondent, is of the opinion that France is maliciously seeking a quarrel with China in the Ton- qmn affair. He intimates that the hope of the war has inspired the reactionary party of China to encourage the French, who have also tbe sympathy ot foreigners in China, who believe that French victory would open the country to general tade. The Chinese have advanced beyond the point of believing that the art of war is the art of making a noise and creating a bad smell, and France, fa seeking a dis turbance with 500,000,000 of artful heathen, may make a greater mistake than was made when her victorious sons went to Moscow on a summer excursion.

Mansfiild, June 19. The prelimi nary trial of the Rev. B. F. Jenkins .and Edward Jenkins began to-day. Counsel for the defense asked that the examination be deferred, as it was probable that on the arrival of additional counsel a preliminary trial would bo waived. Judgo Logan said he regarded it his duty to take the testimony of the State's witnesses to pre serve the evidence, and ordered the exam ination to proceed. Only one witness was examined. The case will be resumed to morrow morning. It transpired on the trial that both brothers fired on Corden. The witness testified that he heard Ben Jenkins say to Ned : "You did not shoot him. I did." Ned said : "1 fired at hu heart." Ben answered : "I fired the ladt shot into his head." Immediately after the killing of the Rev. J. La.net Borden, District Attorney Hall wrote to the father of Miss Mary Butler, giving the details of the killing and the ratuorad annajeeUon of his daugh ter With the matter, ind to day received the following reply : Mr Dkak Sib: Your favor of the 6th lost, just to hand, and contents noted. There is not one word of truth in the charge you refer to. Myself and wife both have questioned my daughter rally on the subject, and she says there is not a word of truth in the report. 1 regret very much Mr. Jenkins took up such an idea. My daughter pays she said nothing to Mr. Jenkins that he possibly could infer any thing of the kind" When asked why Borden was killed, Ned Jenkins answered: "He seduced Mary Butler." Miss Mary Butler has made the follow ing statement : "I hereby deny having made at any time a confession to Mr. Benjamin T. Jenkins, Jr., to the effect that Mr. Borden had in any manner ill treated me only so far as shall be ex plained when asked by Mr. Jenkins if Mr. iJorden bad treated me badly. 1 told him yes. tie then asked in what way. 1 told him : I can t tell, but you can think any way you wish.' The only indignity ever offered by Mi. Borden to me was in the library about ten days ago, when I was there for some books. When he approached me and attempted to put his hands upon me, I immediately left the room and was never in bis presence alone again during the remainder of my stay at Mans field. This treatment of Mr. Borden to me was never mentioned to any one but my mother." it may be stated that Miss Butler has a ather and two brothers to protect her honor, if such protection had been neces sary, bhe is lt years of age, handsome and unusually intelligent. A younger sis ter was at the Mansfield Seminary with her. Jenkins seems to have been suffer ing from hallucination of mind when he fired the fatal shot DASHES.
