I.ouisville Commercial. Mr. J. C.
Carter spoke in all forty hours in
opening the case of this country before
the Beliring Sea Commission, and
he spoke so well that the President of
the tribunal said: "lean not refrain
from thanking you, sir, fortius magnificent
speech, which has been
by a loftiness of view well
worthy of this high court." That
eminent British organ, the New York
Times, however, decided before Mr.
Carter got nearly through his speech
that this country has no case.
I.t:r,ISLATURI. AND TUG RACKS.
Frankfort Capital. It is the common
lot of man to walk home from
the races, and the members of the
Legislature who went to Lexington
furnish no exception to the rule. An
accident at a point four miles fiom
this city delaying their train until a
late hour, many of them walked
home. For their sakes we decline to
publish the stories told by them of
the perils of the wreck, as theymight
be printed by their home papers. It
is enough to 'state that they were
slightly demoralized. The accident,
while not very serious, interrupted
travel to a considerable extent yesterday,
but the road will be clear today.
