AcoLoREDJURY.

Twelve Sable Men Sentence One OF
Their Race TO Death for Murder.
WnM1NeToN, N. G., Nov. 3.-The trial
OF Dave Martin and Jimmy Anderson,
both negroes, for the murder Of white
boy named Carter in September last, was
brought to close to-day, resulting in the
acquittalo OF Anderson and the conviction
of Dave Martin Of murder In the first de.
gree. The remarkable feature OF this trial
lies in the fact that the entire jury were
negroes The accused were negroes, while
the victim Of the murder was . white. The
Judge sentenced the prisoner to be execu.

Sleeping In a Cold Room. Room,

Halls journal Of Health says that cold
bed chambers always imperil health and
Iinvitet fatal diseases. Robust persons may
safely sleep IN o Temperature OF forty or
under, but the old, the infant and Tho irail.
should never sleep in room where the
atmosphere Is much under fiIty degrees
Fahrenheit. ,-. ,l.s,g ,..,g. nj.
All know the danger Of going direct
into the cold from o very warm room.
Very few rooms, churches, theatres and
like, arc ever. warmer than seventy de-
grees. Hit is freezing out Of doors It Is
thirty degrees-the difference being forty
degrees more. Persons viii be chilled by
such a change in ten minutes, although
they may be actively walking. .i.n.

Many persons wake up In the morning

the country have done an incalcalable in

The Currency Pressure.

Notwithstanding the suspension Of
work In large manufacturing establish
ments, and commercial failures Of houses
otextensive connections, the financial con-
dition, as viewed by the New York pa.
pers, presents a more encouraging aspect
than recent events indicate. The stag
nation in the circulating medium, grow
ing out Of q general want OF confidence,
as all know, Is now the chief difficulty,
and the New York papers Of Tuesday
particularly comment on this phase OF the
situation. The zSmea says: .s=
1.-THE money In circulation was too lit
lie to hold up stocks, pay for the enor-.
nous crops Of grain and cotton, and move
them to The seaboard The panic then
began on account Of the stringency In
money, which was not artificial, but
brought about IN the ordinary course OF
events. Confidence has been shaken now
by the numerous failures and the clatter
concerning the instability OF the moneyed
institutions. A restoration OF public con-
fdence In the safety of the banks, and IN
ample supply Of money, will bring about
speedy recovery. As the panic began on
account Of monetary stringency 30 II will
end by relaxation In the rates Of interest
and proofs furnished that this will be per-.
We haye the money now. There
10 more In circulation by fifty millions
OF dollars than six weeks ago. The,
banks have drawn largely on their legal
reserve. The government has paid out
the surplus Of SIS 900 900 in purchases OF
bonds, and has also drawn largely upon
the ga 200, 900 reserve. Millions Of gold
have been sent over from the Bank Of En-.
gland, which are now in active use here.
The country needed more money, and 1t
has been obtained. The truth is that be.
fore long currency will be glut, and four
per cent be considered high rate Of in
terest. Every manuiactory that closes,
and every iron forge that shuts down, in.
stead Of adding to the general stringency
in money tends to make 1t more easy.
Money 10 dearest when there Is the great.
est call for It to use in business require
ments. It Is cheap when 1t seeks invest
ment instead Of being sought for"

COMMUNION IN BERoHRR's CHURCH.
A reporter.thus describes the administra-
ton OF the Communion in Plymouth
Church on Sunday last: r1I d
Before the pulpit, and fitting the semi.
circular line OF the front pews, was q long,
narrow table, covered with white cloth.
Upon 1t stood two large silver wine
pitchers, twenty silver goblets, and ten
silver plates with broken bread upon
them. The utensils were massive and
handsome.
"Before you" said Mr.. Beecher, "is
spread souvenir Of the death Of Christ,
q memorial Of the God who sympathizes
with you in all your sufferings. I invite
nobody to participate in this rite because
he Is member Of church. II 10 free TO
everybody who desires to accept Christ"
Alter hymn and beuediction those
who did not wish 10 partake Of the Com
munion retired. When they had done 80
fully two thousand persons were LEFT. In
the two front pews sat the ten deacons.
Mr.. Henry @. Bowen occupied q seat close
behind them. Mr.. Beecher prayed earn
estly for blessing upon the ensuing cere.
lUuy. 4ueu uo uhuueu tuo pIhte6 Ol
bread to the deacons, who passed through
the congregation with them. The most
exact system prevented unnecessary de-
lay. The plates were handed 10 the per-
sons sitting In the ends Of the pews, and
passed along until they reached the ends
at the opposite aisles, when, instead Of be.
ing returned through the same numerous
hands, they were taken by other deacons
and passed back along the next unserved
pews. Thus the multitude was decorousIy
and rapidly supplied. During this Mr..
Beecher sat behind the table with his head
bowed. There was almost oppressive
stiffness, and as the worshippers ate of the
emblematic bread they covered their eyes
and prayed silently. The light from
hall burning chandelier In the ceiling min.
gled with that which came In throug Oh the
few open blinds with curiously weird ef.
lect as seen by the spectators who looked
down from the galleries. When the dea-
cons had distributed the bread they re-
sumed their seats, and were served by the
pastor, who then, alter q brief prayer,
filled the gobleis from the great pitchers.
The wine was passed In the same way that
the bread had been, and collection for
the poor followed the Communion.
