The Editor in this week's Dtmotrat savt that should another trial be ernnted in lite Johnston murder case Dr. Johnston would again run the risk of being found guilty of murder in the first degree. Wt would refer the Major to Art. amendments to the Constitution of the United Htatcs. We think he will tec that no be tub- eel, for the tame offence, or be twice put jeopardy of life or limb." Tbe above paragraph appeared in tho freeman's Toboyne correspondence last week.

When our attention was called to it our first thought was, "How eaay it ia for one eager to correct the errors of others to fall into a greater error himself." It is likely that we wire better acquainted with tbe amendment to the Constitution above quoted and its true intent and meaniDL' before the above correspon dent was bora, than he has shown himself to be now. Article I. See. 10 of our Slat Constitution also con tains tbe same provision in the Dec laration of Bights. Both teem to be very plain and cannot see bow any one that can read and understand Ihe Koglith language should blunder in the interpretation of either of tbcto provisions of tbe fundamental law.

Of conrae. tbe Commonwealth could not again put Dr. Johnalou on trial for murdering Dr. Henry. Had the jury acquitted him, that would have been tbe end of tbe matter 1 but bad it failed to agree) on verdict, be would bare been tried again.

It found him guilty of murder in tbe second decree- He applied for new trial Had be permitted in Ibis application and bad tb court granted II, be would bare placed himself in precisely tbe same situation be was la wbrn he was first arraigned aud would bav been subject to tb same penalties. Now, bona th frit man corTMpoadenl will bav clearer view of tbe subject. 'asy to Take lasy to Operate hn Ixlan ft mm llmaTa tin. al aa K. totiaai.
