most fair and impartial charge to the grand
jury which is composed Of the best citizens

Master Of the State Grange. The judge
cautioned the jurymen to divest them
selves OF all passion and prejudice, and
instructed them to conform strictly to
law. to expel from their bosoms every
feeling of hatred, malice and revenge.

with participation in this plot of insurrec-

fact that the accused are negroes; that they
were ever slaves. and deal with them as if
ment to the GOODNESS and forbearance of
the whites, and instanced the fact that not

by the district attorney, attorney general
and others: the accused by Hon. A. T.
