Yesterday morning at the usual hour the

With visitors, all esger to hear the verdict.
Tho jury, looking rather jadcd, through its
foreman. Nick Miller, handed in the verdict,
which reads about - follows:
Pisrre Bertin aud jean Capdeville, guilty

capital punishmeht, and recommended to

Matt Hogan and Frank Petrie not guilty.

There was no Sign of demonstration from
the audience, but appearances indicated
that most of the visitors wese satisfied, il
not gratiiied. iss u
The prisoners wcre al remandcd as there
d another indictment pending, but it is
doubtful il either Of them will ever be
tried On the charge, as circumstances rem

The prisoners were taken oat BY tho rear
on st. Anne street, to avoid the throng, but
crowds rushed around from Orleans street
TO TAXA . look q the huRglau.s This rush
was oninous, for it was currently reported
on the streets last week that If these men
were not found guilty something serious
would happen T. tho accused soon after
leaving the courtroom. Although these
dark rumors were rife, We failed to trace
them to any reliable soures, but still are in
clined to think that there was come truth in
them.
Judge Abel, before discharging the jury,

Ku.kluxfsna.

There have been several outrases late
ly that smell strongly Of Ku-kluxism.-
The house of Samuel Jackson (colored) J
in Kentucky, was burst into by an arm
eG band, taken to the woods, stripped
and whipped nearly 10 death for voting
the Democratic ticket. .ata
A negro by the name of Sid Embry
was taken out of his house, near Ath-
ems, Kentucky, and shot to death. He
was man of good reputation, and had,
on, the day previous, aI the election OF
Magistrates, voted the Democratic tick

"A Mr.. Henry Scrath living within a

charged with cruelty to colored girl
living in his family. The Missouri
Democrat Rad. stated that the girl
was tied up by the thumbs three times,
and was heroically cut down each time
by Miss Henry, despite the threats OF
Scarth, who, latter the third cutting down,
drove Miss Henry from the house.
Scarth was arrested and tried for Ku.

found him guilty, and he was fined $25

Mulilated Notes,

A correspondent having raised a
question as to application Of the rules
governing the discount of mutilated
United States notes, and the use of the
printed diagrams, subdivided into TWEEN
tieths, furnished for use in estimatin g
the deductions, the Treasurer has made
the following reply: y:------------
Deductions are made for only the ag-
gregate proportion missing, and the
diagram is divided into spaces merely
for convenience in estimating the loss.
No, matter how many parts of spaces
may be missing, no deduction will be
made unless the aggregate loss is more
than one twentieth of the original pro-
portions of the note. Thus, there might
be .one-tenth of each of nine spaces
missing, but,as the aggregate loss would
not exceed one-twentieth, no deduction
would be made. For a. loss of more
than one-twentieth, but not more than
one-tenth of the original proportions of
q note, but one-twentieth of the face
value will be deducted; for more than
one, tenth, but not more than three TWEEN.
tieths, but oLe-tenth will be deducted,
and so on until the loss equals half a
note in which case one-half will be de-
Quoted.

The Crime Of Infanticide.

A leading physician in New York,
who has been interviewed by q cores
pondent of the New York Commercial
Advertiser, says that the crime Of infan-
ticide is absolutely rampant in that city,
and that the main increase of population
is being left to. foreigners, especially
German, and Irish who seldom interfere
with natural laws. He added that be
did not believe that Hebrew was ever
guilty of it. In this connection he re.
marked: lse Seeats =. ..,s....assss
Il once asked an old nurse why this
was the case, and she gave two. reasons.
The first was that they we're fearful OF
destroying the Messiah, who is expect
ed to appear, and the second was that
they considered it q crime on par with
murder. 1 may also add, from my own
observation, that the Jews believe they
can not prosper in the accumulation Of
worldly goods unless they obey the d.
vine Injunction. to increase and multiply.
There may be something in this, for
many of our wealthiest and most pros
porous citizens are Jews. Then, again,
the crime prevails chiefly among Protes-
tants, and seldom among Catholics,com-
paratiyely speaking. The religion OF
the latter classes. teaches thatthc effepse
is among the most enormous that can
be committed short of actual murder"

A stolen Child.

About two years ago We published an
advertisement from some point in Ohio,
asking for information concerning lit
tic two year old boy, supposed to have
been stolen from its parents by q wan
dering gang of gipsics. a day or two
since, one of our subscribers. at Tur-
mans Creek Post office. Sullivan Coun.
ty, called on US and stated that band
of gipsies is now located near that place,
and that one of the families has little
boy in their possession, about four years
old, who answers fully the description
of the lost boy referred to in our paper
two years ago. Our informant remem.
bered the notice, and when the gipsies
settled in his neighborhood, this spring,
he was Immediately reminded ofthe case
by the appearance Of the little boy with
them.
The location of the place in Ohio
where the theft was committed can not
now be remembered, but the papers Of
that State would likely confer q great
favor on the parents of the lost little
one by referring to the above facts

.. Mt. ..CeuIA,Tuuneh,,s Is

A late traveller through the Mont Ce-
mis- tunnel to Italy gives the following
valuable information: He passed from
Bardoneche to the point of junction Of
the two galleries in less than quarter
of an hour, in train employed in re-,
moving the materials excavated. The
way is not yet constructed in its%wholc
width for about hundred yards in the
centre, where blasting operations are
still going on. Bat with that exception
the double line is completed, and nothing
more remains to be done but to replace
the temporary rails by permanent ones;,
The middle of the excavation forms a
eliminating point, a slope of two in q
hundred having been provided on eacl,
side for drainage, SO that it. is sconse-
quenty from 230 to- $50 metres above
the level of, the entrances, The temper
ature is still very high, but THAT circua-
stance is accounted for BY the necessity
Of still keeping closed the gates con-
structed for the requirements OF the SER
vice, and which are only opened after
an explosion to let the smoke escape -
The fact has been remarked, That when
the door is thrown open the current Of
air is rapidly established, and always in
the direction of France to Italy. No
one can pass over the line without per-
mission from the principal engineers, in
order not to impede the progress of the
works, which are expected to- he ecom-

A Judiciai Ku.kiux.

The Atlanta Sun tells the following
story about one Of Georgia's Superior
Court Judges, who was not remarkable
forIhis good looks: 1t seems that a man
was indicted and put upon trial before
the Judge, upon the charge of playing
Ku.klux. One of the principal witness.
es was negro man. In the course of
the examination question was asked
which this witness declined to answer.
The Judge was appealed to to compel
an answer. The day was pretty cold
one, and the Judge was we'll muffied up
in his shawl, and had escaped the eye
of the Cushite. In leaning forward to
order the witness to answer the ques-
ton, the negro caught sight of him, and
no sooner had he done so than he ex.
claimed, "By goly, dere's a Ku-klux
now =! and at one bound he cleared the
bar, and in moment more he was out
Of the court house, and running as if
all the Ku klux Klan were at his heels
The negro is still of the opinion that a
member of the Klan was on the bench
that day.
