CHINESE PHILOSOPHY.

In ancient times there lived man Shien.
During q travelling tour he had occasion TO
rest the night at road-house. The wealth
er was insufferably hot, and within his
room musquitos swarmed by thousands.
Shien fortunately had provided himself
with curtains. but unfortunately the cur
tains were insufficient to resist the enemy.
His efforts to keep them out were in vain,
sounds of buzzing in UNPLEASANT proximity
still continued, and writhing under the in
tolerable torment of their stings. his
thoughts transplanted themselves to his
own peaceful home. He reflected on the
spacious halls, cool couches, and the crowd
ofhandmaids to fan and wait on their lord !;
and, continued he to himself, how is it
that should have suffered one moment Of
ennui in such a paradise? Why leave to
seek pleasure and find misery abroad !?
During these medtations he observed the
keeper Of the post, who had no curtains,
pacing the room with the musquitos
swarming around him. But what seemed
to him inexplicable was that the man
still appeared to be in perfect good hui
NOR. Shien, still writhing in misery, ex-
claimed: "My good fellow, you are n hun
bred times worse off than myself, but how
is 1t that while am in torment of mind
You on the contrary seem happy The
keeper replied: '.Sir, l have just been
recalling to mind the position was once
placed in when prisoner, bound hand
and foot, | was helpless prey to these
murderous insects, unable to move a mus
Gle. they preyed on Inc with impunty, and
the agony was unbearable. 1t was the
contrast of that horrible period with my
present condition that produced that feel
ing OF contentment within me-" Shien
was startled by the mine of philosophy
herein unfolded. Would, he thought. that
the world in ordinary life would but daily
keep in mind. and carry out such prin-
ciple of analogy. How vast then would
be the result to man.-North China Her

the sobbing ladies', who clustered around him and
held his hands as If they would let 90 OF him.

WAITING FOB THE VERDICT.

During the long hours waiting for the verdict the
court room was not more than half crowded. The
ladies related to Stokes family all dressed in deep
mourning, were grouped together sitting chairs,
and above them the chandelier burned brightly
with its many lamps. Some few persons had gone
to sleep on the upper benches and here and there
an onlcer Of the Court strolled around and gazed
vacantly at the ceiling. The reporters scrubbed
without purpose on the ny sheets, and conversed
with each other about the Incidents Of the trial. The
Judges seat was vacant, as he had gone to dinner
at either Delmonicos the Aston House, and it was
rumored that the counsel for Stokes and Beach,
Fullerton and Fellows were dining with him. In
the Supreme Court Chambers the prisoner, Edward
8. Stokes, and his cousins, Walter, Thomas and
Henry Stokes, were conversing and walking to and
fro.

pared for the jury In the Supreme Court Chambers
A long table wat SET covered by white cloth, on
which was spread game, fowl and all the delicacies
OF the season. The jury ate q hearty and pleasant
meal, occupying twenty minutes or so at their
supper. They then went back TO the jury room
and were locked up again by Valentine. In the
meantime discussion was rife in the Court among
the audience nearly all present canvassing the
situation and the probable result Of the delibera-

MORE OF RUNS WORK.

The Elizabeth IN. J.) Murder Trial.
For several days past the Union county Oyer and
Terminer has been engaged in the Court House at
Elizabeth trying the case Of John Pagan, indicted
for the murder Of Chauncey Cum. on the night or
rather morning Of Sunday, September Is, 1872. Tha
evidence adduced up to the adjournment Of tho
Court yesterday Is simply an exhaustive cors
roborati0n OF the facts as stated in the
HERALD just after the murder. On the morn>
ing in question Fagen and some others were
in Q saloon kept by man named Lowe.
Fagen and one Peter McGurgan got into discuss
sion about politics. Finally Fagen gave toast.
"Herc's to Useless Grant, and McGurgan re.
sponded by saying, ''Here's to Horace Greeley"
At this Fagen knocked McGurgan's glass out OF his
hand, and q row ensucd which, however was
stopped by the proprietor Of the place. Mean
while Chauncey Clum and Edward Connolly en-
tered the saloon, ana, after Fagen had been put
out the rumpus was resumed on the sidewalk.
Fagen then drew O revolver and peppered away at
several persons. Clum was shot and SO was Con.
molly. The formers wound was fatal. He
died q day or so after. All the parties
in the deadly rencontre were more or less
under the influence OF liquor It seems Fageu
was down at time in grips with Con-.
molly. and Clum kicked him. The plan OF the de-
fence Is probably to make out that the shooting
was done In sefdefence. It will be several daya
yet before the trial is concluded Yesterday as on
every preceding day, the court room was crowded
with people.

Future as the Fifth Avenue Theatres
The Present Condition Of the Bui1dfngs
The theatre formerly known as the New York
and more recently as the Globe Theatre was taken
possession OF on Friday last by Mr. Augustn DAILY,
proprietor and manager Of the Fifth Avenue
Theatre company, and a thorough reconstruction
Of the building was begun yesterday. Although II
has passed successfully through many eminent
hands, and in many instances undergone soma
curious transformations, the improvements In each
case gave very little real satisfaction and added
nothing striking either in beauty or taste to the
little Thespian edince The theatre has remained

1t from Mr.. A. T. Stewart. When the
work OF remodeing was begun the Interior Of
the structure wore q topsy-turvy aspect, evlS

windows were covered with dust and cobwebss
and scarcely admitted q single ray Of light. ina

The walls wore damp, unhealthy color, as II all

win be made IN the structure "A new stage, Of
superior material and broader space than the LAST

torn down, win be remodelled and ornamenteds
New and additional boxes win be constructed

waiting for the verdict his former trial was all
gone. He seemed elated with the full con-
seriousness that the deliberations Of the jury
would either set him free, or else give him
an opportunity to give bail on account
OF their disagreement Stokes took light supper
at q quarter to ten. A dozen oysters on the half
shell were brought to MIN. He eat four or five;
the rest were left lying their shells. Neither
the mother nor father OF Stokes, fortunately, as
the sequel will show, was present at the delivery
Of the verdict.
While waiting for the verdict the ladies con-
nected with Stokes family, all OF whom appeared
to belong to the highest rank OF society, seemed
to be in deep trouble and anxiety, and ever and
anon would look at the clock and again at the door
through which the jury were to pass to their seats
Stokes kept on smoking, and his younger brother
Horace, who has been so faithful and steadfast to
him through the varied vicssitudes OF both trials
seemed far more anxious than the prisoner him.
SELF At a quarter past eleven O'Clock there was
observable in the Court, among the waiting au-
dience, that premonitory hustle and confused hum
ming which Is always noticeable when a long ex-
pected event is about to take place.
First came Mr.. Sparks, the Clerk from an inner
room, followed by the officers of the Court, who
pushed chairs aside and made passage way for
the Jurymen. Then came the jurymen's attend
ant, who opened the door of the box, after which
followed the prisoner, looking as undaunted as
ever and surrounded by his friends and relations.
These latter took seats facing the jury box. The
Judge then entered ana took his seat the bench.
At this moment
THE TWELVE JURYMEN
filed in, looking very grave, and presently they
took their seats. AS they passed in 1t was notice
able that but one man out Of the twelve looked at
the prisoner; all the rest seemed to avoid glance
at his face. There was dead silence in the Court
There was no need to ask what their verdict would
be- 1t was imprinted in the lines Of
EVERY MANS FACE OF THE TWELVE.
First they answered severaly to their names,
and then the Judge, in the usual manner, said,
Gentlemen, have you agreed upon verdict9"
Foreman Of the jury (risng)-We have.
Mr. Sparks-Gentlemen Of the jury, rise. Prls-
oner, stand up. Gentlemen of the jury, look upon
the prisoner. Prisoner, look upon the jury What
say you, gentlemen OF the juryS DO you find the

not guilty.

summing Up for the Prosecution-The
Other Side or the Picture Eloquently
Presented.
Mr.. Beach, ON behalf Of the prosecution, rose at
halfpast one O'Clock, and proceeded with his sum-
ming up address to the Court and jury. He said
GENrLEMEN-The prisoner gave you history OF
the bloody tragedy which took place twelve
months ago: For twelve months he contemplated

ingenious counsel. ALI that his own memory could
recall and the suggestions OF devoted learning
could furnish him Tor twelve months has been

OF those lessons OF maternal love and the influence

said, just starting upon the path Of manhood,
