Memphis is becoming a great marketfor wines and liquors, as well as for cotton, w ithin two years oar business inthis line has more than kept pacewith the advance of oar other interestsThis is entirely dae to the discriminationand liberal dealing of oar Liquor merchants, chief among whom is John Liiny361 Main street, who imports largely ofthe finest wines, brandies, cordials, ales,Dublin porter and rye whisky. He isagent for the celebrated Kettle whisky
The decision by the commissioner ofInternal revenue, a synopsis of which appeared in our telegraph columns a fewdays since, regarding liquor dealerswholesaling and retailing, is as follows :
"A liquor dealer wholesaling and retailing, may set aside packages for retailingand enter them as sold by blm as s wholesaler to himself as a retailer, but cannotwholesale and retail from the same package. When a party carries on the business of wholesale and retail liquor dealeron the same premises, he may take crediton this account for spirits disposed of atretail, which he has entered ss received.by setting aside packages from which todraw for retail only, and entering them asdisposed of to himself aa retail dealer."
The hardness of s colored cranium isastonishing, Yesterday a line type of thatclass, astride a mustang pony, rode inUnion street very nonchalantly until bereached the corner of Desoto, bat there bistroubles commenced.

CHEERFUL
Biasings of a Memphis Philosopher
The idea still possesses the fsncies ofmany good people that the Mississippibegins its subterrsnesn course at themouth of Wolf, and flows under CourtSquare. They say there is not spaceenough between tne bium and the beadland tatting out from the Arkansas shoreto contain the body of water that descendsthe channel. Therefore a philosopher onSecond street hss been investigating thesubject, and in bis experiments uses acommon globe, showing by its revolutionthst the water la thrown with great forceby tbe earth s violent rotary motionagainst the pastern shore. This fact accounts satisfactorily for the cave beneaththis city, which has so excited the envy oKuoxville and caused a mighty cavern tobe dag by newspaper fancy beneath thatvenerable village
It la a somewhat curions fact that tbebluffs at Columbus, Kentucky; at FortPillow, Randolph and Memphis, since1861, have been constantly abraded by theriver current. The earth's motion isabout eight hundred miles an hour atMemphis, and if this rotsry force is im-parted to the water and expended sgsinstthe inundations of Memphis, ths Mississippi will yet find its wsy to Oermantown.these are the terrible results contem-plated by our Second street philosopher

INSANITY.
Important tHarlslaa by the supremeOaart af the State A Harder Case
from Jf oatgonaery Coaatyd.
Tne Plea al Iasanlty Tboroasrbly CBB--sielered, aad Several important
Folate Established.
The Nashville Banner, of Wednesday,publishes a synopsis of one of the mostInteresting cases, involving several Important points, decided in oar supremecourt, on Tuesday, through Judge Nichol-son, whose opinion waa listened to by anunusually large crowd of outsiders as wellas lawyers. The opinion of the learnedjadge will be read with great interestthroughout the entire country, since tbeplea of insanity, with all Its intricacies otproof and oounterproof, has become to beso frequently made In cases of murder.The following are the main features of this
OPIMION.Richard Dove was tried and convicted
of murder In the first deirree for killingWm. , in Montgomery county.The jury found that the murder waa com-mitted with mitigating circumstances,whereupon he was sentenced to tbe penitentiary for life. He has appealed to thiscourt. The
BVIDBNCEdeduced in the trial was ss follows: Vir-ginia Holland (whom Dove oflered toprove to be his wife by cohabitation, acknowledgment, etc., to prevent ner
bat was not granted this right,the court ruling that a marriage certificate or testimony of witnesses was necessary as proof) testified that she hadbeen living with defendent three or four
At the time of Digarins's death,Ssara. witness, her two children, hermother, her sister and Digglns were, alllivine in the same rcom. Diveand Digglns ate supper that night toanther, thev lauehed and talked together"and then went to bed and were so laugh-ing and talking when witness went tosleep. About two o'clock st night witnesswss awakened bv the blows being siruckby Dove with an ax, and by the cries ofDlggtna." Witness saw and beard Dovestrike Digging two or three blowa. "Dovesaid. ' now vou see what I have donehave done many a one that way.' " Doveletrched for money, and said he wanted itto travel on; took Diggina's knife, pat it inhis pocket and threw a blanket oyer Dietries. He told witness he could no' leaveher to witness against him, and aaid, " ifyou don't go with me I shall see the lastof all of vou: you shan't be left for witness aeainst me." Witness, Dive snd hertwo children then went into the woods.where thev remained all day. Dove keeping the knife in his band and saying hewould kill witness If she tried to leavehim. Late in the evening she foundrefuge with two gentlemen whom shechanced Ito see. Dove was once "jealousof Digglns, but he had been satisfied ofthat. Digglns was an old, gray-heade- d
man, about sixty years old. He wssauler. srood old man. while Dove wasvery passionate man, -o- i-en got very mwiwithout any cause, would be violent whenno one bad tron bled him ;" frequently aaidhe would have somebody s blood, throwins his arms wildly about, and ?uch things,Had attempted to strike old Digglns before without provocation, ne often complained of headaches ; to complainedduring- the dsy before Diggins's death. 1
answer to whether she thought Dove sansor lnsane,ahe said she never saw anythingwrong about him.
Sarah Holland, Virginia's mother, gaveabout the same testimony in substance,
Martin proved thst witness was s lazytrifling man; a strange man; nobody knewhim. Witness never knew him, thoughhe had lived with him.
Talley worked with Dove. He neverbad much to say. Had hear! bm ssy, "hewould kill any man who didn't work forhimself, bat made other people work forhim " He said Digglns didn't work forhimself.
James Andrews, T. J. Sly and Jeff Woo-te-n
testified to the strange charac er ofDove.
Patsy Oczzart, a sister of Dove, testifiedthat he was born in Alabama, was a cierfor one Norman in Nashville for a year ortwo. and while in Nashvilie receivedbad wound on his head, was damaged fromthe wound, talked Incoherently, and consiantly complained of his bead, at thattime about niteen years ago.
TESTIMONY OF MEDICAL EXPEBTSExperts were introduced, among them
Dr. D. P. Wright, who had examinedDove's head and found it had suffered, iseemed, two injuries, one on the righside, lust below the crown. "The skullhas been fractured and a portion of thebone Is depressed upon the brain ; tbe depressed portion is fractured about theceuter and a piece of tbe skull bone isbroken off, which protrude&l through thefracture and is now sticking down uponthe brain." Witness thought that suchan injury must produce, more or less, adiseased mind, which might remain dormant an indefinite period, or might be revealed by paroxismal insanity, which kindof insanity would be that moat likely tofollow such a coarse. During lucid intervals In such esses "the patient mightappear reasonae y rational, and mightconverse with intelligence." its symptoms were moodiness, love of solitudepassion without apparent cause, etc,Such persons often commit the worst ofcrimes on those they love beat or who area thing of Indifference to them, whilethey are conscious of the crime and of tbepenalty. An effort to escape or concealthe crime wonld not be evidence of sanity,Upon reading a written synopsis of thefacti aa proved In this case, relative toDove's mind,witness gave it aa his opinionthat the strong probability was that "hewas insane at the time of the commissionof the crime.' O.her doctors concur fullywith Dr. Wright In his opinion of thesame hypothetical state 01 facts.
HABQE OF THE OIRCOTT JUDGE.Af er charging the law correctly as to
the several grades or nomicioe, ice circuitludge Instructed the ary ss to the aetense of Insanity as follows: "The lawpresumes s man to be sane until the contrary is proven. The evidence of the insanity of the defendant mast oe so clearand satisfactory as to overturn the presumption of the law m favor of Insanityas it is required to overturn tnat of innooence. it the testimony leaves onlydoubtful question se to whether he winsane at tne time of the killing, the presumption of the law turns the scale Infavor of the sanity of the defendant, insuch case the law holds tbe defendant re-sponsible for his seta." sees xheproof ot Insanity, to acquit, should beclear aa that of murder to convict.
DECISION OF THE SUPBEMB OOUBT.
Judge Nicholson alluded to severalerrors assigned In the case. He ruledthat tbe criminal court had full jurisdictlon in the esse With regard to thetestimony cf Virginia Holland, U wasrefused to examine her on her voir dire.and on being allowed to produce proof ofthe marriage aliunde, tne defense did notundertake It. The court rightly admittedher testimony. It waa objected to thatwitnesses should be asked their opinionas to the insanity ct Dove. "The rejection of theoplnions of the witnesses, basedupon the facts and circumstances statedby them, waa erroneous. ia this connection are cited Oibson vs Gibson, 9xerg. 3W. orton vs. , Head 444. Thelast and most Important error assigned isas to that portion ot the charge of thejudge which, among other things, heldthat the defense ot insanity, to be avail-able, most be proved beyond a reasonabledonbt. "It is conceded that this charge issustained oy nngusn cases and oy oasesIn a fe w of the States, but it is certain thatit la in contraven ion of a large numberof decisions in other States of tbe Union." JThere has been no exactly similar case inTennessee, but the principles laid downIn 3 Yerg. 283, and since followed, govern.Ths opinions referred to are by JudgesCatron, Oreen and Peck.
And from that time to the present thelaw has been settled in our State tbat ifthe proof fails to generate full convictionof every material ingredient constitutingthe crime of murder, the defendant mustb acquitted." Aocording to Coke, a person to be guilty of mardtr mast be of"sound memory and discretion." It maybe safely stated that no person, who can-not distinguish between good and evil andwho has no oonsc'.ousnees of doing wrongoan commit murder. The law presumesevery one to be of sound mlrd, therefore,If this deiendant relied upon the plea ofinsanity, the harden or the proof la thisdevolved upon him. it tne accusedsane he could act "willfully, maliciously,premeditatedlv," all Ingredients essentialin murder, and ail must be proved beyondreasonable doubt. "But suppose the proofmakes it an even balance in tne minds ofthe jury, whether the defendant waasane or Insane; how, in that state ofdoubt, could the lory find that the defendant did the killing willfully, deliberately.maliciously and premeditately ? They arein uouot wneiner ne be 01 sound mind anddiscretion, of course they must doubtwhether he could have done the killingwuuuiiy, mauciousiy, aeiioerateiy andpremedltatedly. "When the proof of insanity makes an equipoise, the presumption of sanity Is neutralised, it is over-turned, it ceases to welsh, and the iurvare In reasonable donbt. How then can apresumption whioh has been neutralize!be resorted to to tarn the scale? In readingthe evidenoe one would feel shocked withthe enormity of this orlme if he aaanmarlthat the defendant was of sound mind.There was entire friendship between theparties. The jar; found extenuatingcircumstances. Yet the defendant waasentenced to work hard for Ufa. ThaJudge stated that the records hadoeen sear onea in vain, out no aem-blano- e
ot a mitigating circumstancehad been toned. The Jury most havedoubted whether the defendant waa sane,and "being instructed by the court thatsuch doubt would not justify acquittal,they gave the defendant the benefit of
this doubt," and saved him from the gal-lows. It waa suggested that the peace oftbe con utry demanded that this sentencebs confirmed, and that to torn him loosemight be to have him kill number leasothers. "But this la not the tribunal towhich the consideration of public policyoan be appropriately addressed. Oarbusiness Is to administer and not to makethe law. The code provides that onproper and conclusive proof of insanity,the judge may order the defendant to alunatic asylum. Oar duty is dischargedIn declaring that the defendant baa beenonvicted and sentenced to imprisonment for life contrary to law. We reversetbe judgment, and remand the case foranother trial."

They in-quired of Mr. Ward, the ticket agent.which was tbe first station. On beingtold that Whitehaven la the first stationon the road, they purchased tickets forthat place, and entered tbe oars. Theykept quiet until the train started, atwhich time one of them went to the doorof the ladies' car, and made such a racketthat the attention of the passengers in theother car was drawn to the circumstance,At that moment another one ot themstepped up to Captain Stokes, andasked him, in a load and Imperiinent voice, " Where are you going?'The Captain looked up, astonishedand chagrined at the fellow's insolence,ana sua, - 1 am going to HernandoWhy? What is that to you?" Thestranger subsided quite rapidly, went tothe door and Jumped off the car. He gavea peculiar sort of "whoop !" and then twoothers were seen to jump off also. Captain Stokes moved away from where hewas with the Intention of going into theladies' car. It was than that Mr. Cald-well told him that his watch was gonethat he had seen "that fellow" take it, butdid not know what he was at. CaptainStokes looked down, and aaw his watch- -chain hanging out and the watch gone anne gold one worth llrxi He had thetrain stopped Immediately, got off andgave notice to tbe first policeman he meFat.

and alleys nhtil he reached Main streetagain. He then got word that the thieveshad taken a street car. Being compelledto abandon the horse In his devlons chsse,he jumped into a furniture wagon, andtold the driver to go past the streetoar, now a long way in the dis-tance. He caught ap with It betweenBeale and Union, nabbed his men and hadthem conveyed tq.the stationhouae. Cap-tain Athey put handcuffs upon them andsent them to the depot, where they wereidentified by the tioket agent. Later inthe day Captain Stokes went to the sta-tionhouse and identified them also.
