Trial by Jury. 
We announced the pimple fact last week (hat 
the jury, in the case of Edward 8. Stokes, for 
the murder of Jam OR Fisk, Jr., failed to agree 
and were discharged. This result surprised no 
one who had watched thouglifully the report* of 
the tedious trial. To ub there seems no douhl 
whatever that when Stokes shot Fisk he meant 
to kill him; and that he had no provocation Tor 
shooting because of any personal demonstration 
Fisk made at the time; in other words, we do 
not believe Fisk drew, or attempted to draw, a 
revolver, oven If he had one about him. lhit it 
is not improbable that Stokes feared attack: 
that his knowledge of the power and disposition 
of the man with whom he had to deal made 
him constantly fearful for his personal safely. 
And it was this fear ami the knowledge that. 
Fisk had procured an indictment against him, 
that prepared him 1o do the murderous deed he 
avows he did do. in the light of these faciatho 
trial by jury demands notice. The law enacted 
by tho last Legislature, with reference to Jurors, 
has relieved the jury system in this city of its 
farcical features somewhat. Hut still men are 
not tried m all eases by their peers. Again, all 
men have not judicial minds. And -with us it 
is a grave queslion whether trial by jury for 
capital olfenses of this character is not a mis¬ 
take; whether it is not bettor that such offenses 
should he tried before, and decided by, a beueb 
of tliree or live judge* men with trained 
minds, purity of character knowledge of law, 
and capable of weighing all the points of law 
and evidence with intelligence, and who hat e a 
full appreciation of the grave responsibilities 
devolving upon them. No citizen would fail to 
feel more secure in person and property If he 
knew that the punishment o{ the guilty and iho 
administration of justice was vested in such 
men. This we think a matter worthy of the 
most thought fill at tention of our readers. 
The Indian Policy. 
We have had a visit from ehiefsof the Apaches 
a tribe of villainous Ln's that are responsible 
for a reputation for skillful thieving, pillaging 
and murdering, despite the efforts of peace¬ 
making commissioners and the paternal policy 
of the Government. One plank ut our Kef Arm 
Platform, published tlrsl December It;. I8sl,antl 
again July ti, 1872, was: “An Indian Policy 
which will recognize the Indians as citizens and 
treat them as such ’’ in other words, a policy 
which will give to every Indian a homestead of 
80 nr leaf* acres upon the same terms flint the 
public- lands are dist ributed to actual white set¬ 
tlers, and with precisely the.same tenure; that 
holds him responsible to the same laws ami gives 
him the same privileges as white men: that 
gives him no more annuities, but compels him 
to earn his own livelihood without in I ringing 
Upon the rights or property of others. Any 
other Indian policy will fail unless it be a 
policy of extermination, to which we are utter¬ 
ly opposed, except so far us It may he necessary 
to protect those who live under and respect tIn¬ 
law. _ 
Cataeazy vs. Fish. 
It will be remembered that the Russian Min¬ 
ister Cataeazy hud a falling out with Secretary 
of State Hamilton Fish, last year, the latter 
threatening to send Cutnca/.y Ids passport if tho 
Russian Government did not recall him. He 
was recalled, and when he got to Russia left for 
Paris, having been entirely relieved (at his own 
request, he now .says) from official responsibili¬ 
ties. He has ventured into print in defense of 
himself against Secretary Fish. He addresses a 
pamphlet and documents to Chief Justice Sal¬ 
mon P. Chase. Now we do not know anything 
about (’auien/.y. personally, but |ps statement 
certainly ha? coherence, consistency, and leaves 
Secretary Fish (accepting Cataeazy'.* version jis 
t.riie) in a position not battering to Ids discrimin¬ 
ation. honor and dignity. All thrift trouble is at- I 
tribnted by Patacazy in the miserupuloh.-' in¬ 
trigue* of the prosecutors of tlm Widow Parkins' 
claims against the Russian Gmommoul, which 
Cataeazy had been instructed to examine, with 
a view to mbit ration it found to have any oasis; 
but which, in the opinion of Cntaeitzy (and of 
Cassius M. Clay, whose letter to that effect Cat li¬ 
en zy publishes), bad no foundation whatever. 
The prosecutors of these claims comprise a 
stock company, and men In high official post (ion 
in tho Government are reputed to lmla stock. 
At any rate, Catacaz.v very clearly shows that 
they have had iho ear or Hamilton Fish, who 
has been intlueiicort to act in accordance with 
threats, made directly to Cataeazy, to drive him 
out of the country it' lie did not defer to these 
claims. This-whole mailer haft a bad look lor 
our owp officials, from the Cataeazy standpoint. 
We shall see whether the Spite Department can, 
or will, give it a different coloring. 
Stanley, the New York Herald Correspond¬ 
ent, and Dr. Livingstone. 
It is exceedingly amusing to read the com¬ 
ments made in i he English papers upon the an¬ 
nouncement that the New York Herald corre¬ 
spondent has penetrated Africa, found Dr. Liv¬ 
ingstone, and is now on his way back to England 
with letters from the “Great Explorer.” The 
accounts published, as coming from the pen of 
Stanley, of his adventuresuno the meeting wit h 
Livingstone, are nor swallowed, “nock and I 
tail,” by-the Imlk of the English press;and in¬ 
deed in this country doubts crop out, and men 
prefer t.u see credentittIs front Livingstone that 
the Herald's special has aelualit taken him by 
the hand, bidden him be of and given him good 
cheer, and left the valorous explorer to pursue 
his exploration® after receiving his grateful 
benediction for the effort made to find him 
either in the body or out of it. W'e shall soon 
know how much “bunkum" there is in Stan¬ 
ley’s stories; for it is announced (July 18) that 
he has sailed for England from Port Said, ac¬ 
companied by a son of Livingstone. 
countries—the man who has rescued the United 
States from the discredit, of having caused a 
failure of the arbitration—is undoubtedly Mr. 
Adams. It is t<< his courage and st raight for¬ 
wardness that the declaration of the Arbitrators 
must lie attributed. That declaration lias been 
tnade individually and collectively, mid Mr. 
Adams has. therefore, not scrupled to condemn 
the principle of the claims which the Executive 
Government of bis country had sanctioned. In 
such conduct we recognize the highest patriot¬ 
ism."

About Pekin, Chinn. 
It is not easy to get correct not ions concern¬ 
ing matters in the f’elostlal Empire, if we are to 
believe the statements recently made before the 
Geographical Society of Paris, respecting Pekin, 
by Dr. Marlin, lie asserts that its population 
hies never been equal to that represented by 
European authors, ami that it has decreased 
under the present dynasty, ft fluctuates be¬ 
tween sflo.ono and 1)00,000, though an exact 
census has never been taken. The majority of 
Its population arc Tartars and Chinese. There 
are not JJOO Europeans there. Mahomcdmi* 
number 1)0,000 l<> 05,000. The city is poorly 
maintained and insufficiently supplied wit It 
water; drains poorly constructed and the air 
111 led with miasma; the narrow and tortuous 
streets in the heated seasons are tilled with 
suffocating smoke, and during the rainy season 
are little rivers Of mud. The only drinking 
water is from wells which id often not drinkable 
because ol the soil through which M passes. 
Diseases there, both epidemic and endemic, 
produce excessive mortality, especially among 
children. Every morning vehicles go round to 
take away the little coffins which the parents 
place at the doors of their dwellings. This is 
the Celestial picture Dr. Martin gives ub.

Tnw last annual Message of the Mayor of
