THREE COFFEE BAGS OF HUMAN FLEsH.-At New

patroIing the beach at the f1et Of 20th ST.
observed three coffee bags lying on the shore just
above high.water mark As the bags appeared
quite full, the susI icons of the officera were
aroused. and The bags taken to the station house

wel as flesh cut up into small pieces. actually as
fine as mince-u.eat. How these bags containing
their awful load. came here, is yet unknown. They
had no appearance of having been in the wafer
but evidently had been left upon the beach by
those having them in charge, probably with the
idea that the water might float them of.

RELIGION VS.. THE DRAhA.-The revival OF reli-
gion in New York continues to furnish the papers
of that moral city with abundant material for their
local columns. The prayer meetings in Burton's
old theatre are described with great uncton. The
f,llowing 10 quite melo-dramatic:
During the exercises there came in from the
@eighboihood Of the theatre a volume of musical
sound-the singing of hymn in another meeting
Raising his hand, he stood quietly moment. Fl K
ing the attention Of the audience before he spoke
'Brethren.' said he, 'do you here thatg Stop q
moment! That's the sound of worship out OF the
old bar-rOom of this theatre, Let us spend two
minutes in silent prayer and thanksgiyiugt" lie
resumed his seat, and for the two succeeding min
ntes the falling of a pin could have been heard
rhen followed prayers for Mr.. Burton, the owner
of the theatre. One old gentleman in the first gal
lery prayed that the request of Mir. Burton to be
remembered in the petitions offered up in this
meeting might be blessed to his benefit. *

PACKED JuRIEs.-Some excitement exists in Phil
adelphia in conseqr 7nce of verdict of man
slaughter having been brought in by the jury in
the case of Freeth. tried for murder. This verdict
war so contrary to the evidence as to attract the
serious attention of the court, and subsequent
facts were ELECTED showing that the jury had been
tampered with. The Philadelphia Ledger says:
The evidence goes to show that the deputy she
rff, though specially ordered lay the court TO 90 TO
the body Of the county, meaning the places OF bli-
snesS of respectable citizens to summon his jury.
deliberately violated that order. and took several
of the jurors from persons banging about the court
for the purpose of being summoned upon such
service. One of the persons summoned was Mr
RUsk, police officer in the employment of the
city, in Lieut.. Carsons division. IIe it is alleged.
Vas selected at Carson's suggestion. Carson him
self serving the summons. The singularity of the
verdict of the jury, inconsistent with the evi
iencc in the case. attracted the attention of the
court TO these circumstances, aud on inquiry evi,
deuce enough was offered to create a strong pre-.
sumption that the jury had been tampered with.
and specially packes for the trial The court CON
sidered it a jcty to send Mr.. laird, the Deputy
sheriff to Jail for ten days, and ordered him TO pay
fCe of $50, and Carson, who he did not
know Rusk, was bound over to answer for perjury

Drs. j. U. Watson and r. W. Hancock. throueh

On Mobiles entering the room afterwards he was
immediately pointed out by Serano who said that
Noble and Two other persons whom he ronId n,,t

him.
serano said also that Mrs Null looked through
a small opening in the wall In his room, lust be-
fore the men ruade their appearances. Noble. who
works at Coles barrel factory, said that he had
been unwell and coBfined to his boarding house
for two days. and that the evening of
the occurrence three Of his comrades came to see
him, but he knows they did not do the deed be-
cause they were with him all the time. lie ap-

and said that, being in bed at the time, he had
acted the part of good Samaritan la releasing, or
helping to release Serano, when he heard him
groaDing up stairs. His room was just under thar
of the robbed man.
Ii appears that it was known IN the house that
Serano had large amount of gold on his person.
rhe officers searched in vain for any traces OF the
treasure, nor did they fnd any of Mobiles three
friends. The affair will be Investigated this morn
ing by the Mayor. If Serano was despoiied OF

seems but little doubt tmay be sa!ely said that 1t
was one of the most dariog crimes in the way of

mer.--Make Il number of common cot
ton bags, little larger than your hams;
after the hams are well smoked, place
them in the bags, then get the very
best kind of sweet well made hay,
cut it with knife and with your hands
press it well around the hams in the
bag with good strings, put on card
of the year to show their age, and
then hang them up in the garnet or
some dry room, and they will hang
five years, and will be better for boil
ing than on the day you hang them up.
This method costs but little, as the
bags will last for years. No flies nor
bugs will trouble the hams if the hay
is well pressed around them; the
sweating of the hams will be taken up
by the hay, and the hay will impart
fine flavor to the hams. The hams
should be treated in this manner be-
Eore the warm weather sets in. !

Isl possible that the farmers of Ten

pleasures, and pleasures too of tho
most exalted and substantial charac-
ter. such as are not known to the pro-
fessional or commercial world and
without further remark, it may be said
to farmers that if they wish to free
themselves from the usual rough, dis
agreeable, and ody-destroying effects
Of farming, they must commence at
once to adopt the best and most relia-
bic methods of improving their soils
for the protection of their stock, and
, after this, their own dOmicils and
parks. Who is the farmer that is will

worn out land. his fifty negroes and
yet ride the poorest horse to church
and milk tie poorest cows in henelgh-

cases; but the great question is, how
much longer are our farmers willing
10 see their fields more barren than
their neighbors, their cows and horses

winter and their gardens as cherries

without injuring my veracity, that the
farmers ofTcnnessce will no longer be
behind their neighbors in substantial

up a proper rotation OF crops, prepare
stables for all their stock, SOW for graz
