defeating the ends Of justice. 1t seems that
= fellow named Denning, now confined in
the Tombs has boosted that a jury which
failed TO convict him Of al son some time
since disagreed because he 1.-THE aceused) was
q free mason. and had made the masonic
sign Of distress, so a. Ia be recognized hy the
JUROR, when the ease was on trial. The
same fellow. IL seems, with the dominance
Of a ToInbs lawyer and police officer has
been overhauling the lists OF petit JURORS,
10 ind out who were masons. with u view
to getting some Of them on the jury who
should try him, and through their sympathy
he might escape. The whoc thing was
exposed in the Court of Sessions last week
and Denning's second trial. which was
about to come on. was postponed in cOnse
quence.
The accused. says a writer to n Washing
ton paper, may be n mason. for there is no
society into which bad men do not some
times succeed in gaining admission and, il
ignorant, as he must lie from all accounts,
he may have embraced the idea that ma
sonic obligation gives him immunity from
punishment for crime in the manner sug
gested. But every intelligent mason will
bear me out in W. suggestions-tirst, h.

screen II guilty man from runishmen, ar.

and not called for 10y its obligations, bu, ar.
directly opposed to them. II is imr"~-itl.
that the sign Of distress could have be-.
made in an open court room without a.
tracing universal attention and as tn.
accused has clearly lied in that particular
it is fair to presume that he lied in every
other.
1t has hardly been a year. since Went

With masons. the above two suggestion,
are known to be true beyond cavil. The,

"BurroNE Up A BU NBLE HEE.-
The Rev. DR.. L., q Clergyman, was
II man OF high character, and distin.
guished for his dignity Of manner
But ii Was remarked that frequently,
when ascending the bnlpit stairs. he
would smile and sometimes almost tit
ter, as il bcset by an uncomfortable
desire to laugh This excited remark,
and at last scandal: finally it was
thought necessary Up Some of his cler-
zeal friends, at a meeting OF the associ-
ting, To bring up the matter for con
sidcration.
The case was stated, the DR.. +. be-
ing present. well, gentlemen" said
he. the fact charged against me is
true, aud ! beg you to permit me to of.
er an expansion. A few months A.
ter | was licensed to preach, | was in
y countrytown, and on n sabbath morn
ing was about to enter upon the service
Of the church. Back OF the pulpit
was a window which looked upon a
field Of clover. then in full bloom
for 1t was summer. AS | rose to com
mcncc the reading OF the scriptures,
east a glance into the field, and there
! saw a man performing the most ex-
traordinary evolutions--jumping whirl
ing. slapping in all directions, aud with
y ierocious agony OF exertion. At first
thought the man was mad, but sud
denly the truth burst upon me-Ae had
b"ttoned up a bundle bee in his panta
looms l am constitutionallv nervous
gentlemen, and the shock Of the scene
upon my risible sensib iIities was so
great that could hardly get through
the services. Several times I WAS on
the point of bursting into a laugh
Even to this day the remembrance
OF the scene-through the tempta.
ton Of the devil-often comes mon M.
as ascend the pulpit. This | admit.
it a weakness, but | trust it will rather
excite your sympathy and your PRAYERS
than your ~reproaches.
