that Judge Shaw issued an order restraint

ine for the bridge, which they were tried
for letting out illegally, brief account
of which was published in the Ne,cs and
Courier to-day, until the matter was final
ly adjudicated. l understand the bridge
will be completed to-day, but whether
the contractor will allow it to be used by
the public before it is received and paid
for by the county commissioners, is
question that is interesting some of the
people. It is part of an important thor
oughfare, and 1 would not be surprised if
more litigation grows out of the present
complications. This case, will, doubtless,
have the effect of making parties more
cautious and particular in contracting
with county commissioners. As this case
stands now, the county commissioners are
under Indictment; the contractor cannot
get his money until the case is settled in
the courts, and the people are deprived
of the use of the bridge. So much
for having corrupt and incompetent
men in Office. There is no white man
on the board.
wrote you, in my first letter from this
place, an account of the trial and acquitr
tai of Henry Baker, negro, for the muir
der of Levi Brown, a white man, who was
killed while endeavoring to save his
property from thieves. The jury that
tried the case was composed of twelve
negroes, while poor Brown, an honest,
hard-working, peaceable citizen, was al
lowed none of his own race to assist in
doing Justice between him and his MUIR
derers. 1t was niger murder, nigger

exact copy of it as rendered on the trial !:

The Properties Of Coca.

The value of Coca as q stimulant and
tonic has been pretty well tested during
the past year by members of the To-
ronto Lacrosse Club. An interesting
history of the experiment is given by
DIR. E. B. Shuttleworth in the Canadian
Pharmaceutical Journal. In the
spring of 1876, several gentlemen be-
longing to the Club began taking Coca
for the sake of its support while incur
ring the fatigue of game which occa-
sions violent exercise. SAT the COM
mencement of every match, !" says DR..
Shuttleworth, s'about q dram to q
dram and half of the leaves was
served out to each man. This was
chewed in small portions during the
-game-the saliva being, of course, swal-
lowed Z On first taking the leaves, q
sensation of heat and dryness was pro-
duced in the throat. This was relieved
by washing out the mouth or gargling
with water, . sensible augmentation Of
muscular force and general feeling of
inauguration were realized, and contin-
ued to be felt throughout the game, SO
the fatigue was wholly, or in great part,
resisted. The pulse was observed to.
increase in frequency, perspiration was
augmented; bat no; mental effect was
noticed, save the exhiliaration of spirits
always attendant on the exercise of
well strung muscles and on the excite
ment of play. No disagreeable after
effects we're experienced. The leaves
were chewed without the addition Of
lime or other alkaline matter,n ~. "

If man thinks it in order to get
drunk on his wedding day, lie ought to
put off the +" drunk" until after the mar
rage ceremony. This little piece of
advice is suggested by the fate of Lud-
low D. Frazee of Philadelphia. He was
engaged to marry q young lady of
Plainfield, Ocean Beach, N. j. The
day was set, and the bride was ready,
but the bridegroom did not come. The
wedding was necessarily postponed.
On the way to Ocean Beach Frazee
met some congratulating friends, and
they drank him senseless. After few
days of sobering-up he went to Plainfield.
The young lady and her mother shut
the door in his face. He hung around
the house, and the young lady's friends
gave him black eye and ran him out
Of the village. He hung around the
outskirts of the village, and the local
police told him to move on. He was
too mean to stay on Jersey soil, and he
went back to Pennsylvania, a single and
q sad man.

A Famous Frontier Scout Murdered.

We have just been informed by Judge
Dean of the death of Jack Stillwell, one
of the most famous frontier scouts in
the United States. Having recaptured
some Government horses that had been
stolen by gang of desperadoes, he lay
down under a wagon and went to sleep.
While asleep party of armed men rode
up and asked if that was Stillwell. On
being informed that it was, they imme-
diately fired volley into him, which
broke his legs and inflicted several
wounds, but did not kill him. He ask
ed for his gun and a fair chance, but the
dastardly wretches replied with another
volley, which instantly killed him. Still
we'll was one of the most famous scouts
and frontier guides of this age. He was
great favofite with all the Indians,
and it is reported that they are much
incensed at the cowardly manner in
which he was killed.-Galvestsn (Teras)
