The result of the city election in Terre Haute, on Tuesday last, is very gratifying. Although the political complexion of the Council is unchanged, the total vote shows again of Jour hundred and six-t'/-seven for the Republicans oyer the vote jf 1869. That is glory enough for one lay. The gain of Indianapolis in two wards, in an aggregate vote of fourteen hundred, -was two hnnd/red and two, conntng the low on the Democratic vote. At ihts ratio, the gain in tlie entire city, had ihere been the- same contest in all the wards as there was" in the Fifth and Sixth, would have been at least eight hundred, he total vote of the city for Mayor in jgO'J being 5,G22. Democrats and Reformers are welcome to all the comfort hey can extract from these facts and figII res.—Ind. Journal.

Large and gratifying as was the Republican gain in this city, we cannot iigree with the Journal that it was "glory enough," for the simple reason that our friends might have done better by making a proper effort. We lost two Councilwen through Republican negligence.

It often happened, during the Lite Democratic Rebellion, that our ari.iies went into battle with ranks depleted b/ the absence of cowardly stragglers v, ho were "bumming" at the rear. Many defeat was occasioned by this cause, and many a brave soldier lost his life WJO might have lived to enjoy the fruits of final victory, had sill his comrades en as true and brave as himself.

The Republican party has too many of tl.fs same kind of stragglers men who u.ake loud professions of devotion to Reblican principles, and who are always idy to secure any advantage that is to be gained by (heir connection with t!..) organization, but who, when the hour of battle comcs, shirk the duties that are nt^easary to make victory certain. For w« eks before our city election we made th most earnest appeals to this class of Republicans, telling them where the danger lay, and urging them to do their duty. Many gave heed to our counsel, but there were enough who could not be reached to give the opposition an easy "victory" in the First and Third Wards, if carrying those wards by greatly reduced majorities may be called "a victory." The indiflercnce of these men deserves rebuke, and we would like to hope that they will be content with the amount of mischief they have wrought, and endeavor to atone for it by a faithful performance of dutv "next time."

THE

IE Greencastle Banner says the Presbyterians have taken definite action in regird to the establishment of a female college in that city. A Board of Directors has.been chosen as follows: Add.

The Seo ond Church building and grounds, worth about §14,000, have been donated for the purjiope, leaving only about $12,000 tp bp raised to put the college in successful operation next September, as proposed.

The Indianapolis Evening Commercial says work on the Indianapolis & St. Louis railroad is being pushed in four divisions. The nineteenth mile from that city, reaching Danville, will be fin-is-hedihis week, and the section of eighteen miles this side of Danville is progressing so rapidly that it will be completed in a few weeks, while the road is to be finished and in operation by the first of July, if hard work can accomplish it. The convenience of the gravel pits on the road is such that the ballasting proceeds almost as fast as the track laying and it is expected to have a number one road from the start, instead of taking two or three years to finish it.

M'FARLAND TRIAL. 4

The announcement that the counsel for defense would sum up to-day attracted afa immense throng to the couit room this morning. It transpired at-a8-£arly hour,, that for reasons unknown to the public, Judge Davis would not sum np for the prosecution, and that his collection with the case was thus virtually ended. Thnrumor caused much sensation among the friends of Richardson, and it was unhesitatingly asserted that outside influence had Deen brought to beat1 to preclude Judge Davis from summing up, as was his intention.

When the Recorder had taken his seat the learned counsel for the defense commenced his closing speech amid breathless eilennce.

Mr. Graham said, that for years the prisoner had borne the pitiless pelting of misfortune and wrong, and now be had at last found refuse in a court of justice. He had loved not wisely, but too well. The story of his woes must have gone to the depth of their sopls. Could not the prisoner ask^vith confidence—"Could I have done less, and ought I not to have done more?" The allegation of the prosecution was, not that the individual who had passed to his fate had not merited his doom, but that however righteous had been that doom he received it at the hands of an unauthorized agent. "The question then for the jury was, the mental condition of the accused when the deed was committed.

There were two incidents in the trial well worthy of observation. One was the appearance of private counsel in the case, the other was the rejection of three jurors who happened to be countrymen of the prisoner. Those men were good and reputable citizens, eligible as jurors, and their exclusion by the District Attorney, was utterly indefensible,

The jury would remember a question put in by the private counsel to one of the witnesses, namely: ''Was it a Fourierite establishment that McFarland was living in?" Who inspired the question?— Were they to conclude that this wicked woman had betrayed the secrets intrusted to her as a wife? Other questions by the private counsel proved that private malice was at the back of the prosecution. If upon the whole case, the jury entertained a doubt of the sanity of the prisoner, they were bound to acquit him.

Objections to the course of the defense were raised at every point. When it was sought to prove that Mrs. McFarland had received the proceeds of insurance on Richardson's life, an objection was raised that the prisoner was prevented froui showing the motives of this wicked woman in deserting her husband. It was charged that the defense had tried to make the trial sensational, which was made in all the papers, but was sufficiently disproved. He wished to impress upon the jury that this was a case of murder or nothing. Any such compromise as. sending tlie prisoner to the State's prison would be a violation of their oaths. It upon the whole case the jury entertained a doubt of the sanity of the prisoner they were bound to acquit him.

Mr. Graham's plea for the prisoner has been almost entirely devoted thus far to legal and technical questions involved in the case, chief importance being given to the insanity theory of the defense. Many authorities, precedents and official reports of previous cases were cited, by which Mr. Graham maintained the principles which would justify acquittal of the prisoner had been fully established. Counsel entered into discussion of different varieties of insanity, claiming that if the prisoner was found insane at the instant of shooting only, lie was not morally responsible and must be acquitted.

Mr. Graham cited Col. Hiithcock's case as an exact counterpart of this, and the Sickles-Key case, paying a high compliment to Edwin M. Stanton, one of the counsel, and the Rogers case, from Massachusetts, in which Chief Justice Shaw charged tlie jury that the prisoner must possess and be in full exercise of memory, intelligence, reason and will, to be morally accountable for his acts.

Mr. Graham said if McFarland meant to kill Richardson, apd was sane, he could not have chosen a more inauspicious place than the Tribune office, where the odds were against him.

Counsel thus far in argument have not commented on the relations between Richardson and McFarland, the alleged conspiracy to separate McFarland aiid his wife, and other prominent points of Mr. Spencer's opening speech. The case will be resumed Monday.

A TUNNEL ENTERPRISE.

The Senate Committee on Commerce yesterday authorized Senator Conkling to prepare a bill providing for tunneling East and North Rivers.
