MISCELLANY.
From the Boston Traveller. ;
THE ASSASSINATION OF ELLEN DE3M0SD
. If ihyfe was ever an indictment properlj
Approved by a Suffolk GranJ Jury, that in
dictment was the one found against the bar
barians who outraged the unfortunate girl
who bore the name of Ellen Desmond.
Now the petit jury have found one Sulli
van guilty as n. principal, in this matter.
On many trial in capital cases, public
opinion stands divided, and sometimes con
tradicts that of los jury ; but in tins case.
we think, all must agree in nearly appro
bation.
It has been said that some men seem
born to elevate the dignity of ibe w or!d ;
and the reverse is also true some men are
born lo deepen the infamy of the worlJ.
Many crimes have mitigations. Some are
done in the fury of rage, undei sudden pro
vocation, or in a. blind access of passion,
nnd some are partially accidental. But
none of these elements mingle in this case;
there is no single circumstance to stay ibe
uplifted sword of Justice.
There was no wrath, no bitter blood, no
hostile but manly antagonism. 'J 'he vic
tim was a wretched and hHp'ess girl ;
wholly unoffending, as regarded her de
moniucal tormentors, and in such a situa
tion of unbefriended loneliness as to chal
lenge the generous protection of a savage.
Bayard Taylor says that in all his wander
ings over the face of the earth, he never
yet found the barbarian hearts which would
repulse the weary cne, who threw himself
freely and helpl' ssly upon their generosity
an i pity. He could not have said so, had
he been in Boston, on that awful winter
night, of this Desmond tragedy; that night
men's hearts were frozen solid, like their
forms. . ' r
It was that night of lerrillo cold, before
which the stoutest natures quailed, in our
last winter's experience, upon which the
printing building became the scene of this
infamy. The girl was wandering home;
frozen, and blinded, and confused, she a k
ed direction, fron beings in the shape of
men. She was directed and taken into a
building; there (in the frighfu! cold, not
withstanding entreaty and screams) she
was horribly outraged, and then locked upv
in her agony; thre she remained with
scant clothing, with no fire, alone, in the
blackness of darkess, frozen, as in a dun
geon of ice, and trembling with feat of the
returning fiends ; till, in her desperation,
sue leaped troin Ihe window of what had
proved her infernal ptison house and wns
killed; not instantly, but being taken up
some time alter, sne was earned to the hos
pital, and breathed her last there.
Can any human being in the wide world
say anything in defence or mitigation of
this deed of shame? It was not brutal
violence upon a man, beaten in-the streets;
it was not done in beat, it was in Arctic
cold. . "
Sodom and Gomorrah knew no single
ins which wrapped up in themselves more
condensed crime than this sin. It was cra-
cn in its cowadice, and it was even unnat
uraPy murderous -toe assassin u stiletto
upon a woman, a beggar for man's aid, and
Already suffering the pains of a tempera
ture as momentarily terrible as a pesti.
fence. ....- -..-. .
If the criminal actors in this deed are fit
to live, the earth Is not fit to live in.
We shall congratulate the community if
no "law's delay" stays the swift stroke of
judgment in this matter, A man . might
havo a soul dark enough to butcher, Dr.
Burdell, and yet be far above the sneaking
villains who stood around Ellen Desmond,
groaning in her living iomb.
I say, Sambo, does you .It now what
makes de corn grow so fust, when'you put
the manure on it ?" . V ,
"No, I don't know'cep it makes, ground

"Now I jist tell you, when'de corn be
gins to smell de manure, it don't like de
fumery, so it hurries out of de ground and I
gus up as mgii as posstDis, so .it can't
breath bad air." - L - . i
