Bv some sort of cliicanery on
the part OF certain Radical leaders,
the test oath for jurors was SNUG
glcd into the cOtlitietl Statutes, al
though the law prescribing that
oath had been repealed by Re
publican Congress in 1871. Tie
law should have been entitled all
"act to secure ignorant jurors, for
its effect was to exclude from the
jury-box all who had given any
laid or comfort to the enemy du.
ring the war; and it is we'll known
that in many localities all the best
men were ''rebels." A year ago
the House repealed the section of
the statutes containing this test
oath, and the bill went to the Sen
ate, where it was referred to the
Committee on Revision,dthe Laws.
There it has slept ever since. 1t
is high time for the committee to
report it back to the Senate. 1t
cannot he for the interest OF any
party or section to have the great
mass of intelligent Southern citi.
zens excluded from the ,juries OF
the United States courts. The
long delay of the Senate commit
tee, in view of all the facts, is not
credible to its sense of Justice and

1t is usual to pay published tribute
to the memory Of deceased friends. But
while nature drops the tear Of sorrow-
DER the remembrance Of departed ones,
the subject Of this brief obituary has
left bright testimony to sorrowing and
sympathising friends, that their loss is
her eternal gain. The bereavcd family
and relatives eau and should realize the
consolation Of religion, that she in early
life consecrated herself to her Savior, and
to her death remained u consistent and
exemplary member Of tho Baptist Church,
with which she united in lSis. Born in
Amitie City, Miss, 2lst May, 1892. she
died in her 57th year.
We can offer no other consultations to
the family and relatives, than to com
mend them to those promises Of Eternal
Life, found in the sacred pages on which
she relied with y tue christians I'M
wavefing faith. May this faith sustain
them all;n this sad hour Of sorrow, and
prepare them like her to meet LIES close
in peace.
