Jury BURNED IN EFFIGY.-A correspondent of
the Louisville Courier, writes from Shelbyville
KY, on the 18th inst, follows:
On Saturday night Jordan Keeling was acquit-
ted of the murder of James Romaine-a case de-
pending upon crcumstantial evidence The proof
strongly tended to show that Keeling had waylaid
and shot ROmaine from fallen tree top. The vcr-
dict of the jury not received with any favor at
the time it was returned by the public. A few
moments since the whole town was aroused by the
ringing Of the court house bell. People rushed
from their homes to the vicinity of the court house
to find the whole jury, in eliigy, suspended from
a rope stretched across the street. Each iuryman
had his name appended upon slip of paper, in
large plain letters which became perfectly distinct
as the light from burning tar-barrel fell upon
them.
The sad exhibition concluded with a speech from
highly respectable citizen, endorsing and approx
ing the conduct of those engaged in the affair; and
it is lamentable to think that some Of the odd
things uttered by the speaker are feariullv true.
''Why," said he, ''what security have we for life
now? a man waylays another, and shoots him
down, and because no saw him do it, the guilty
assassin goes free. You are now punished more
severely for carrying pistol in your pocket to de-
fend yourself, than you would be for shooting a
man with it. You would be fined for carrying it,
but turned loose for killing your fellow being with
it. There is no guaranty for life, and you have
begun at the root of the evil-the jury box" etc.
OF truth, we have fallen upon strange times, and
who can say the end is vet?

Some one writing for the New York Eveniaq Post
imaginary letters from Mohammed Pasha in New
York to his friend Abel Ben Hassan in Turkey,
makes the Turkish Admiral give the following
opinion of the Opera:
81 cannot repress my admiration at the iupcni-
nature Of the operate a musical novelty
1t appears to be a representation of human life and
passion in strictly original way; though by means
of established OrmuIe, which, when familiar readi-
" explain to the bearer the otherwise mystarious
plans of the dramatiSt. A tenor is ALWAYS an IN
fortunate lover, and, like all lovers immensely self
cOnceited. a soprano is pale and theoretically
beautiful maiden, with stern parent a proclivity
to balconies, mOonshine and tears and a resoute
determination to have white flowers stren over her
early tomb. baritone is a villain of cut-throat
yisage and massive muscles who perSecutes the m
happy couple aforesaid. A basso proiundo is either
villain OF more cOnsummate raScality or 4 servant
of low but humorous cunning or a soldier of deep
lungs and strict morality, Just as the composer may
deem eXpedient. 4 contraltO is either a peasant
girl who knows nothing, a gipsev who knows every
thing, or page of tempting appearance whose
business 1T is to do as little possible for the bene
mischief.
"The chorus is a collection of very ugly but quite
harmless persons of both sexes who are alternately
detected and delighted, as the principal characters
are sad or merry, and Who manifest their emotions
by a small number of chords and large number of
discords. They also incidentally explain such por
tlons ol the plot and action of the OPERA would
otherwise be entirely incomprehensble. In the
meantime the orchestra plays the part Of commenta-
tors with uncommon skill. Is the soprano weary
of the world? The flutes and hautboys sob and
sigh. Is the tenor gradually arriving at the con-
cusion that this world is a Sahara with but one
oasis-or that he has not loved the world nor the
world him? The yiolins and comets wall ana pout
with melodious Does the contraito take plea
sure in informing her stawart prosecutor that ne
has just burned his own brother? The yioloncellos
and trombones unite to express the astonlShment OF
the bereaved party. Is the muscular villain 1, pre-
pairing to make all good angels weep Inc ophecc
