The bearing of both men on the

though McPherson's excitement
probably intcrlered with the accu-
racy Of his aim. The circum
stances were SO favorable to Mad

fatal result, that, although placed
under arrest for violation of the
articles Of war, General Wool, who
was in command, never brought
the case to trial. His general con
duct was so good, too, that all the

LivaLohntars for ENGLAND.

An experimental addition has
just been made to the long list of
American exports to England. The
article is the American lobster, and
the port from which the first ship
ment was made is Portland, Me.
For some years past the Portland
packing houses have shipped the
canned lobster to England in ever
increasing quantities. The taste
thus acquired has created a demand
for the article in a fresher and more
palatable state. To supply this de-
mand a Portland firm have con-
ceived the idea of shipping live
Holsters by means of the English
steamers which ply between LIVER
pool and that port. On Saturday
last the Dominion6teamship Sardin-
ian took out the first consignment
of this novel merchandise. On her
main deck was built a tank twenty
feet long, eight feet wide and three
feet high. with cover working on
hinges. Through this tank a stream
Of salt water, pumped from the
ocean by a donkey engine and sup
piled by six faucets, constantly
flows, The present occupants Of
the tank arc seven hundred live
Holsters. The projectors Of the en-
terpriSe are confident of its Suecess,
their only fear being that the change
from the excessively cold water to
that of the comparatively warm
water of the Gulf Stream may
prove disastrous. Should the ex-
pertinent prove successful it viii lay
ihe foundation of an important
business, and is, therefore, being
watched with interest by the
numerous lobstermen of the Eastern
coast,

Religion An expensive Luxury.

y
New York Evening Telegraml
The system Of reckless extrava-
gance which Of late years has char
acterized public and private expen-
diture in the community has spread
from private dwellings, paatial
warehouses, msrbled life insurance
buildings and gorgeous savings
banks to luxurious churches. There
are churches in the upper part of
the city costing over one million
dollars; in fact, if we are not mis-
informed one of the most fashiona-
bic Fifth avenue churches, situated
near the park, and of recent con-
structiOn, cost nearer two than one
million of dollars. In the interior
it i. apparently as much a temple
of art as a temple of God. The
pews are luxurious to o degree.
Here the wealthy Christian lolls on
soft cushions, his feet buried in
carpet which yields to the slightest
pressure. While his eye reposes on
expensive carvings and quaint boi-
series his ear is tickled with the
strains Of delicious music. In the
happy frame of mind naturally in
duced BY physical comfort and .le-
CANT surroundings, he is quite pre-
pared TO receive the religious
instructions Of his pastor. The
fashionable clergyman OF the pres

A word appropriately interposed
frequently has greater effect with
Jury than the most learned and
eloquent forensic efforts. Many
years ago Mr.. L. F. Muzzy, now of
Terre Haute, Ind, was practicing
law in Perry county, O., and was
engaged as counsel in celebrated
libel suit of Kinney VS.. Raynor,
b ing leading counsel for the plain
tiff. The late Chief Justice Hook
ing II. Hunter, of Ohio, was for the
defense, and after some two weeks
had been consumed in taking tesLi-
mony, the counsel went for the
sympathies Of the jury. BY ar
rangement, Chief Justice Hunter
made the final appeal for defendant,
and it was evident to all that he had
secured the sympathy of the Jury and
defendants stock went up like gold
in Wall street on Black FRIDAY. In
one of his oFatorical fights, Judge
Hunter pointed his long shapely
finger at the jury and said, solemn
ly: "Gentlemen, in making up your
verdict in this case, You must bear
in mind that the eye of 0mnipo-
tence is upon you, ind that thore
is not even II swallow falls TO the
ground without His notice, much
less can one Of His noblest creatures
be stricken down with impupity."
In a moment Mr.. Muzzy was on
his feet, and addressed the court;
Your honor, my brother Hunter
has made a mistake, and / desire
to have IL corrected at once, before
it is impressed upon the minds of
this intelligent jury, The error is
grave one, and is liable to lead to
evil consequences" Judge Hunter
paused and glared upon his oppo-
nent, and the court inquired
