THEY DO THINGS queerly i'm New York When
the Jury retired in the case Of Allen, the panel
thief, rumor was circulated that they stood
eleven for conviction and one for acquittal. and
that the latter had been bribed 70 hold out a
month If necessary. At O'Clock, there being
no prospect Of verdict, the few reporters van,
lshed. Shortly after another rumor came from
the jury-room. 1t seems that one of the eleven
who favored the conviction of Allen, irritated
by the persistency and stubbornneess of the
Juror who stood for acquittal, charged that the
latter had been bribed. This insult the Juror
for "aequittal" repelled with indignation, sty-
ling the other juror a liar. Hot words followed,
and finally, both having lost temper, a fight en-
sued, lasting until the other jurors separated
the combatants. 1t is said that the s.not
guilty" juror came out second best, and receiy-
ed sound thrashing. 1t was not long time
after this event that the jury informed the
officer who had charge Of them that they had
agreed. Two hours were consumed i'm hunting
for the Judge, and the prisoner was declared
guilty. Mr.. William +. Howe moved for An
arrest OF judgement, and a suspension of SEN
tence until Wednesday. Both motions were
denied. The prisoner was then sentenced TO fiye
years at hard labor in the State Prison.

THE BIBLE QUEsTIoN.-The New York
Journal Of Commerce, returning to a discussion
OF what ii calls the Educational problem, says:
The mere reading of the Bible as a Textbook
in school we regard as Of little importance.
Indeed, we have questioned whether i'm view of
the little respect we paid TO it, while all further
reference to the great truths IL contains is care
fully omitted, it would not be wise to lay IL
aside altogether. To use it rs an ordinary read
iiS book for the mere purpose Of elocution, or
defamation, or grammatical anAsysis, Is not to
insure respect for it's contents, and win answer
none the ends for which, as Divine reyela-
ton, IL was given to man."
