How Murderers are Acquitted il,
Delaware,

1t isn't with her criminals only that Del
aware follows the heroic treatment. A
juryman in capital case, tried at Newcas-
tie. last week, has been telling tales out of
of school. There was a division of opinion,
he says-eight of them for acquittal, four
for conviction. The minority h Id out az
long as they could. But, after passing IS
hours in the jury-room without food they
agreed not tc contradict the foreman if he
chose to tell the court that the jury were
agreed upon averdict He thereupon made
that statement, and the alleged murderer
wentfree. At this rate, we shall be pre-
pared to hear, presently, that Delaware
has revived the good old practice of tortur-
ing accused persons, by way of getting the
truth out of them.

Visiting Dresses.

Dolmans are as much in favor as ever.
A fine toilet for visiting includes velvet
dolman trimmed with fur, and beaded gal
loon, a skirt of faile falling straight, with
out trimming in front, and an over-skirt,
rounded, plated up at the sides, and fin
ished at the bottom with bias band cord
ed on both sides with lighter shade; the
back of the second skirt is trimmed up in
points, which are joined by large bows with
ends. A handsome and simple dolman may
be made OF colofed or black cloth, with a
trimming of headed galloon and fur.
beautiful visiting dress is composed of a
unique of velvet trimmed with fur; the
back is tight-fitng and short, and the front
long. The back of the skirt is of black
velvet; under the basque are six narrow
founces of purple faile, and OH each side
are three pufiings lengthwiso of the same,
this forming a panier. The front of the
skirt is also of faille, trimmed with one wide
hounce at the bottom and puffings. The
cuffs Of the unique are trimmed with faille
to correspond with the dress. The bonnet
is OF velvet, with a twisted scarf round the
crown, twist Of silk, with bunch of flow

Boys Out of School.

One of our enterprising. contemporaries
on Sunday last ordered a reporter to stop
at the Brevoort House on his way home
from church and discuss the affairs Of the
country with Messrs. Halstead, Bowles,
White and Watterson. The four gentle
men were together when the reporter S
card arrived, and Mr.. Watterson, whose
dramatic powers are the delight of a nu-
merous circle of friends, volunteered to
undergo the interview for the party. He
saw the reporter, announced himself as Mr.
Halstead, regretted the indisposition of Mr..
Watterson, and proceeded to give the
views of himself and friends in relation to
ali matters of current interest. 1t is well
known that one star differeth from another
in glory, and that the glory and the
style of the four journalists in question
sweep through an immense range. Blu,
the genial Kentuckian was equal to the
occasion, and became more Yankee than
Bowles, more Buckeye than Halstead and
far more profoundly Sucker than the editor
of our Chicago namesske. In one point he
was perhaps too energetic. He had the
happy thought to make Mr.. Halstsad an old

THE MURDER OF ULYSSES JACOBS IN THE
PARISH OF ,ST. JoHN.-Our readers will re-
collect that previous mention has been
made of the murder of Ulysses Jacobs, a
planter in st. John, on the twenty seventh
of November last, and the arrest of Joseph
MarmilliOn, a colored man, charged with
committing the crime. The case rested en-
tirely upon circumstantial evidence. The
friends Of the prisoner engaged the services
of General Z. Morris Chester, who was pre-
sent during the preliminary examination
before the committing magistrate, and in
consequence of the public excitement and
the prejudice in the public mind against the
accused. obtained change of venue to the
parish of St. Charles. The case was tried
during the month of January when the
prisoner was found guilty without capital
punishment.
General Chester Immediately made a mo.
ton for a new trial, which was vigorously
resisted by Hon. Morris Marks, the district
attorney Of the Fourth Judicial District,
which, however, the court sustained, on the
reasons presented by the prisoners counsel.
The second trial of the case commenced
on the thirteenth instant and was concluded
on the night of the fifteenth, and after able
and exhausting arguments on behalf OF the
State and the prisoner, which consumed
the entire. day, the Jury returned verdict
of not guilty. General Chester was assisted
IN the defense by f. B. Earhart, Esq, OF st.
Charles.

Riverside Rewins Club.

This favorite organization will have q
grand boat race this evening, at six o'clock
precisely. For the race three crews enter:
The Annie Laurie crew, the Mary crew and
the Canary crew. In the Annie Laurie
will row r. E. Diamond. stroke; Thomas
Madden. William Rafferty,, F. Mullen, and
j. Robinson, coxswain. p Gallagher is
the stroke of the Mary, and his crew are
Thomas Gleason, Dennis Doran, M. Gal
lagher and j. Hurley, cexswain. The Can
airy is manned by John O'Brien, stroke,
William Doran, C. Gleason, Mat Har-
ney, and J. Stemler, cOxswain.
The race will be over a course along the
river front from point opposite Harvey's
canal, straight away down stream to the
foot of DelOrd street.
As the crews are evenly matched, very
exciting contest may be looked for. We
can not expect to see that proficiency and
skill attained by professio nails OF amateurs
of leisure and unlimited practice, for the
young men of the Riverside Club are hard
working mechanics, and have but little
time for practice, and none whatever to de-
vote to training. Still the boys can ply the
ash to some purpose, as they will demon
strate to-day.
The officers OF the club are NJ. Lardner,
president; John Hurley, vice president, and
William Doran, secretary.
The race this evening is the inaugural
one of series of aquatic contests to be
held every Sunday.
Can not some of our other boat clubs be
induced to follow the example set by the
Riverside Club

The Presidents Veto.

1t is always customary for those having
little else to do, when any important public
document excites public attention, to i'm
pure its authorship to almost any other
source than that from which it originated
Such has been the case with the veto mes
sage of President Grant. The Chicago
Times, of the fourteenth instant, has this to
say on the subject:
The message was written by Grant in
person, not even the customary emanuenss
being used. He went into his private libra
~ just after session of the Cabinet and
remained there nearly the remainder OF the
day digging away with common lead
pencil. The original draft was written en-
tire with a pencil, and when read to his
intimate counselors was found so perfe CT
in style and sense as to demand but a single
alteration. 1t will be remembered that the
closing argument begins as follows:
II am not believer in any artificial
method of making paper money equal to
coin when the coin is not owned or held
ready to redeem the promises to pay
The italics of "artifciar' are mine. In
the original pencil document it read: II am
not a believer in any patent method" etc.
This was more graphic and exactly embob-
led Grants sentiments. But Fish prevailed
on him to soften the phrase so that needless
otfense should not be given, and this was
the only change made.

From Ouachita.

By permission we make the following
extract from private letter written by Mr..
j. Ennemoser, the we'll known editor of
the Louisiana MtelligeAcer:
MONROE, May II, 1874.
The facts, in very few words, are that
nearly everything from Bayou BarthOlo-
new to Caldwell parish line, on the east
bank of the Ouachita river, has been under
water, and great deal is under water yet
and the river is reported as rising rapidly
at Camden. All the cotton and corn planted
before the overflow have been destroyed,
and the river has fallen so little, and the
rise above is so great, that it leaves us with
but little hope of raising any part of
cotton crop, and in case no cotton is raised,
the people without help will be in worse
condition next winter than new. Corn may
be raised but as the hogs and large number
OF cattle are drowned or starved, the plan
tiers Will be without money, and II they
have no cotton they will be without credit.
But at best ali the small planters who are
now destitute, must have meat for them
selves and families to enable them to repair
their places and raise whatever they can.
| am of the opinion that the extent OF the
suffering is not known, and fear it will be
much worse in thirty or even sixty days
than 1t now is. The fact is, the people who
have had their live stock destroyed, their
fences washed away and their houses dam
aged, must have rations for themselves and
corn for what few mules and horses are
left to enable them to raise crop. Neither
animals or men can work without food
there are no supplies in the country, and
very few of our planters can obtain any
thing on credit either from New Orleans or
other cities. The colored people, with but
few exceptions, show determination to
work, and the rations sent up instead of
demoralizing Labor, as few have pretend
ed, has given encouragement to many and
inspired them with hope and strength to
push things until better day dawns on
our parish. Ask the relief committee not
to overlook us, for many of our people are
really suffering. j. Z.

upon a new era of civilization, in which the
universal freedom of humanity from every

The Odd Fellows.

1t is but seldom that this quiet and I'M
obtrusive band of brothers gives outsiders
an inkling of their good works done in
secret and without wish or hope of earthly
honor or reward. The late anniversary
ceremonies that were held in the Odd Eel
lows Hall, in this city, show that the men,
bers of this fraternity studiously keep their
light hid beneath bushel; that their right
hand knoweth not what the left hand doeth.
Those who had the privilege of hearing
that young pillar of the order on that oc-
casion, John r. Thompkins, of Alabama.
could not but carry away with them new
views, new ideas, new resolutions calculated
to benefit their fellow-mep. 1t was indeed
triumph of oratory on his part.
This brotherhood, whose motto is friend
ship, love and truth, first appeared in Eng
land in the eighteenth century, and was
simply social as we'll as a mutual relief
society. The order continued to increase
till 1910, when it reached the acme of pros.
perity..
1t was introduced in the United States in
1899, at which time lodge was established
in Connecticut. In 1902 it made its ap.
York. 1t attracted but little attention I'M
til 1914, when old Father Wildey became
the earnest propagation Of the order, found
ing lodges in great many cities in the
Union. In the year 1921 the Grand Lodge
of Maryland and the Grand Lodge of the
United States were formed, and in 1922 the
institution assumed its present form. The
organization of the order in the United
States stands as follows:
The subordinate lodges, i've degrees; En-
campments, three degrees; Grand Lodge of
the State, Grand Encampment of the State,
Grand Lodge of the United States, and
Grand Encampment of the United States.
The order has symbolic system of
supremely impressive and instructive char
acter. 1t has had a most unexampled
career OF success, owing to the efforts made
by those few devoted ones who are to be
found in all associations of men whose OBJ
ject is charity to fellow men. Its excellent
moral teachings, the intelligence and char
acter of its members, and the powerful in
tiuence which il has exercised in the COM
munity, have made the order one of the
most popular institutions of the nineteenth
century.
Fidelity on the part of the membership,
not only to the laws and obligations of the
order, but to the laws of God, to the laws
of the land, and to all the duties of citizen
ship, Is strictly enjoined; good faith toward
each other, and fair dealing with their fell
low men are firmly yet fraternally enforced,
and love for truth and honor, as cardinal
virtues, are earnestly commended. This is
Odd Fellowship.

Internal Revenue Taxes.

Persons or firms liable to pay United
States internal revenue special taxes for
the current year should remember that it
is made the duty of the collector to make
and report to the commissioner list of all
who have neglected to pay such taxes, to
which list will be added penalty of fifty
per cent, from which assessment no abate-
ment can be made, as all have had ample
opportunity for payment. The city is now
being canvassed for this list. 1t will be
forwarded ON the thirty first instant, we
are informed. and will contain the names
of all who have failed to that date to pay
the taxes for which they are liable.

Why MIR. Mclean Declined to Attend the
Manhattan Reunion.

Mr. Washington Mclean. the editor of
the Cincinnati Enquirer, the paper money
Democratic organ of the West refused to
attend the Manhattan reunion in New
York, and says that there will be new
Democratic party in the West. with a de-
mand for an increasing amount of cur
rency as the chief plank in its platform,
and which will refuse an utilization with
the bondholders, as he calls Messrs. Bel
mont, Schell, and other bullion men. 1--WE
in the West" says Mr.. Mclean, ''are for
more money, more currency. We own
lands. not bonds. Increased currency in
creases the value of our lands. 1t does not
help bonds, for ten thousand dollar bond
is always ten thousand dollar bond; but
ten thousand dollar farm may be made to
sell for fifteen thousand dollars" There
are good many Republicans in the West
and the East too, who hold the same opin-
ions that Mr.. Mclean claims for his Demo
cratic Philadeiphiu Press.
