The celebrated Mcfarland tri:

The celebrated Mcfarland trial,
was concluded on Tuesday. The
closing scene is thus described by
an account in the Cleveland Herald !:
At three O'Clock the jury retired.
They reappeared in court at ten
minutes to five. The silence of
d cath reigned and Mcfarland tur-
ned as pale as a sheet. The fore
man finally rose to answer the usual
question, ,and Mcfarland stood up to
face the jury. He trembled violen-
tly, and clutched the railing beside
him as if for support. els the
prisoner at the bar guilty or not
guilty p came the question at last.
"Not guilty" was the answer. The
scene that ensued beggars descrip-
ton. Th" whole audience Jumped
to their feet, and cheered as though
determined to shake the honse to its
foundation. Even the Court officers
Joined IN the cheering Men and
women sprang over the seats and
struggled for the privilege OF shak
ing Mcfarland bv the hand. The
ladies divided their attentions be
tween the liberated man and his
counsel, whom they lavished with
thanks. Mcfarland was very much
affected, and little Percy in his jov
jumped upon a chair, aad waving 3

restoration. But there were other
members of the bar who will never
again join in honorable contentious
One has gone, in the ripeEed full
ness of ripened years; another with
the distinctions of his profession
clustering thickly upon him, having
already won those heights Of public
estimation from which the escort to
the highest seemed easy and sure
another, younger, yet nature, tread
ing with firm steps the upward path
OF usefulness and honor. How ter
ribly does such a calamity as this
rebuke our vain expectations how
impressively does it admonish every
one of us to look beyonnd the shad
ows of time to the realities of eter-
nifty. 1t IS said that among those
dying, crushed under that mass OF
ruins, there were some who could
yet exchange few faint words with
their companions in that fearful
place. None of them which have
been related by the rescued have
impressed me so much as that OF
one mangled and broken sufferer,
who still found strength to exclaim,
"Oh death wssere is thy sting; Oh
grave where is thy victory" What
a triumph was that? What testi-
mony to the incompatible worth of
Christian faith. So, in the very
depth of this awful distress and an
guish, open springs of human sym
pathy and fountains of sublimest
heavenly comfort. Let us take les
sons to our hearts. This is dav of
humiliation and prayer. The
churches will be filled with wor-
shippers Let us carry into them
not merely the burden of sorrow,
but also the consolation of faith, ev
er remembering that all is Of God.

The Cotton Attack.

The report of the Commissioner
of Internal Revenue having been
presented to Congress,a AN attack was
first made upon it by the pig iron
men. Their statements Mr.. Wells
met, and he showed that his estimate
of the cost of manufacture was not
an under estimate. Next the Wool
Association tackled him, and he re-.
piled to them by showing the in
dorsement Of his report by Edward
Harris and forty three othe.s of the
foremost wooien manufacturers of
the country, representing a capital
of over fifteen millions of dollars,
and by pointing to the continued
depression of the wooden manufac
turing industry of the country. Next
four cotton manufacturers pitched
in. The chief cause ofcomplaint is
that the work done on farms aud in
the process OF agriculture was over
stated, while the value of the results
Of the labor emplo yed in the spin
ming and weaving of cotton was un
derstated. To this complaint, Mr..
W ellis, under date of the 25th OF
April, makes reply. He reiterates
the statements he made in his De-
cember report, t,insisting on their gen
eral accuracy and justice.
He has the following to say of
general interest:
1t is alleged that certain valuations
of cotton product made in 1868 were
read to my hand, but did not ''com-
port with the theory elsewhere ad
vanced and repetitiously dwelt upon,
that the manufactures of the coun-
try are of comparatively small i'm
poItance."
My answer to tAis is, that I utter
ly deny any such theory. On the
contrary my earnest desire is that
all manufacturers be allowed an equal
and fair opportunity for develop
ment ;but when three or four branch
es of manufactures out of many
hundred arrogate to themselves the
exclusive title of manufactures" /
deny their right. The makers OF
clothing are as truly manufacturers
as the makers of cloth; the steel
users are as truly manufacturers as
the steel maker; the railroad is as
much productive power as the pig
iron furnace; the mechanic as much
a manufacturer as the owner Of a
cotton mill. Let each have an equal
right and be entitled to legal pro-
lection without discrimination, and
it is my belief that by such equality
and free opportunity, the country
will most readily secure the most
rapid and prosperous growth, and
the greatest diversification in its in
dnstry.

The Richmond Va, Calamity.

ins nicnHonu va, Oalamlty.
At Richmond on May 4, the
churches were filed, and the city
presented a Sabbath appearance. In
the United States Circuit Court
Chief Justice Chase, in response to
resolutions of the Richmond Bar
regarding the calamity, said:
Human emotions are but poorly
expressed by words. When the
first vague rumors of the terrible
event in this city, which has been
SO fifty named the great calamity,
went through the land a few days
ago, all hearts felt shock like that
of a sudden and awful bereavement.
Then as the tidings came more dis
tinctly over the wires, and the fear
full disaster took shape and form in
the minds Of the people it seemed
for time to Cypress all hearts like
a nightmare; the pulse of life throb-
bed heavily, and human utterance
failed under the crushing sense of
sorrow which pervaded the land !;
then soon the currents of feeling
began to flow, and now, for many
days, heartfelt expressions of con-
dolence and substantial manifesto
tions of sympathy have been fow-
ing toward Richmon like a great
tide. No rightminded and true
hearted man can help feeling this
vast development of unaffected good
will be so strikingly devoid of any
thing like sectional or part, feeli..g g
like CLEANS of radiance which, in
Gods good providence, SO often
brighten the darkest clouds OF hu
man grief. When. two days SINCE,
we took our seats upon this bench,
our eyes and hearts alike misse,;
familiar faces upon the bar. Let
us thank God that those whose
voices were oftenest heard here Yet
survive May the Great Physician
comfort the sorrowing households
! and give them speedy and complete
