Co1oRED JUR1Es. Es.-When the United
States District Judge for Georgia de.
cided that it was competent for the
United States Marshal to select negroes
to serve on the United States jnries, it
was represented here that the decision
was for partisan purposes, and would
result in packing" Of jurics to prose
cute persons charged with violation OF
the Enforcement Act. as had been done
IN the ku Klux cases in North and South
Carolina. TO show that theso suspicious
were we'll founded, lists have been sent
here OF some OF the United States juries
selected in parts of Southern Georgia.
From these it appears that in some OF
the Counties half OF those selected are
negroes. and three-fourths of the whole
number are Radicals. In other Counties,
where many indictments for alleged vio-
lations OF the Enforcement ACT are
pending. the proportion is even greater.

A singular Good Friday custom is OBJ
served In an old English ohurch-yard.
Attention was recently called to it by q
gentleman. who saw an aged rector put
ting down twenty-one six.pences on a
grave-stone, which the same number Of
poor widows picked up. The custom is
nearly as old as the church, and origin.
ated in the will OF a lady who left sum
of money to pay for the sermon and to
yield the si1-pences to be distributed
over her grave; but. as the will is lost
and her tomb gone, the traditionary spot
OF her interment is chosen for the distri-
bution-a strange part OF the tradition
being that any one too stiff in the Joints
to pick mp the money was not to receive it.

There will be one good result from the

Governor that was elected by the people
those who pay all the taxes and mono
police all the responsibility of the State
are spoken of as "rebels." We would
