COaored Men ON Jarles.


1t is generally known that the post
ponement of the trial Of William Neal
charged with rape until Monday, the
Oath instant, involves the question ol
placing colored men on iuries, especial
ly in cases where colored men are tried
for II cir lives. No doubt an attempt
will be made by the Democrats to make
political capital out of it against the
Republican party. The recent decision
of the Supreme Court Of the United
States settles the question, and the
State courts have nothing to do but to
bow in submission to that decision. The
substance Of the decision of that court
is that a colored man put upon trial
cannot have his life jeopardized by a
discrimination in the choice of jury
that he had perfect right to have at
least one or more upon the jury Of his
own race and color. Owing to this de-
eision certain eclored men in Virginia
who had been convicted by the State
Courts had been taken before the Juris-
diction of those Courts by "habsas-
corpus" and after the decision of the
Supreme Court referred to they have
been remanded back to the State Courts
to be re- tried. Under this decision the
State Courts have placed some aolored
men on the jGries and now if they
are convicted their conviction will be |
final. This dscision of the Court is
not only applicable to Virginia but to
New York as well, to Rhode Island as
well as Delaware, to Massachusetts as |
we'll as South Carolina, and as it is the
latest decision Of the Supreme Court
there is no use for State Coarts to
fight againset it. Yhe Court of Quarter
Sessions and General Jail delivery at
New Castle might have gone On and
tried VIM. Neal and convicted him, but
with the almost absolute certainty that
he would be removed to the United
States Courts by writ of hsbeas cor
pus, it was useless to proceed with the
trial. That Anthony Higgins, ESQ.,,
one Of the ablest lawyers Of the bar in
Delaware, has been assigned by the
Court to defend Neal, should use every
effort possible in favor of his client,
should be no reflection on the Republi-
can party, and thatsshe is making this
Test of the law should rebound to the '
credit of Mr.. Higgins. A Democratic a
lawyer could have done nothing less in r
iefence of his client than Mr.. Higgins .

FOR 1880.

During the coming Presidential year The Tribune
will be more effective agency than ever for telling
the news best worth knowing, and for enforcing
sound politics From the day the war closed it has
been most anxious for end of sectional strife
But it two years ago, and was the first persist
emily to Proclaim the new danger to the country
from the revived alliance of the Solid South and
Tammany Hall. Against that danger 1t sought to
rally the old party of Freedom and the Union. 1t
began by demanding the abandonment of personal
dslikes, and set the example. 1t called for end
to attacks upon each other instead of the enemy;
and for the heartest agreement upon whatever fit
candidates the majority should put up against the
common foe. Since then the tide of disaster has
been turned back; every doubtful state has been
won, and the omens for National victory never
more cheering.
THE TRIBUNE'S POSITION.
Of The Tribunes share in all this, those speak
most enthusiastically who have most of the
struggle. 1t will faithfully portray the warming
phases of the campaign now beginning. 1t will
earnestly strive that the party of Freedom, Union
and Public Faith may select the man surest to win,
and surest to make a good President. But in this
crisis it can conceive of no nomination this party
could make that would not be preferable to the best
that could possibly be supported by the Solid South
and Tammany Hail.
The Tribune is now spending much labo and
money than before to hold the distinction it has
enjoyed of the largest circulation among the best
peOp7e. 1t secured, and means To retain it by be

SPECIAL FEATURES.
The distinctive features of The Tribune are known

are the best. Its commercial and financial ner7s is
the most exact Its type is the largest; and ils

Chip Dirt for Fruit Trees.

The best fertilizer to use in setting
fruit trees Of all kinds is partially or
thoroughly decomposed chip dirt. We
may use Of the material for the first
time some twenty years ago in plant
ing an apple orchard, and it was a
wonder to those not In the secret what
caused the trees to make such a fine
growth the first season, and afterwards
too, for that matter. This experiment
was so satisfactory that when we set
out our new orchard we made liberal
use Of this material, with the same sat
isfactory result. These trials have
proved to our satisfaction that chip dirt
is the very best material to mix in the
soil as you plant the tree that can posi-
bly, be used for the reason that it holds
moisture, and is full of the elements OF
plant food; therefore it promotes a
most luxuriant, natural and healthy
growth. Repeated trials have salts
fed me that u tree is not only more
sure to live, but viii make double the
growth the first year les
pecially if a dry season. if some tive
bushels of chip dirt are properly used
in its setting, than it would without it
A single trial will convince the mos
skeptical that the best possible US,
that can be made of this valuable ma
terial is to apply it to soil in planting
trees in order to push forward the ire
during the first precarious stages of it
growt.-Corespondent Ne,O EaglaIa,

Tom Thumb Of n Baby.

Mrs. George Fromm, of New York,
is the Happy mother of a fully devei-
veloped boy baby, born on Sunday
last, which weighed only eleven ON
ces and thrce-quarters. The head of
the child, although smaller than a
small apple, has an extraordinary
growth Of light brown hair. The fea-
lures are regular, eyes bright and clear,
and the skin fine and delicate. The
arms are the thickness of an ordinary
little finger, and the fingers are the
size Of extra large pencil leads. The
nails, although not much bigger than
good sized pinhead, are perfectly
formed. An ordinary luncheon bas-
ket is an ample cradle for the babe.
His height at birth was five inches
and breadth across the shoulders two
and a half. The father IS an ex-car-
driver, out of work, and weighs IT'S
mounds, While the mother weighs 135
pounds. They have been married
eleven years, and have five other chill

The Wheat crop of 1880 bids fair
to be the largest ever grown in this
country. Reports from the South, as
well as the West, tell of the large in
crease in acreage, and the promising
condition of winter wheat crops.
Some sections suffered from the drouth,
and others from an overgrowth in the
fall, but the crop seems to have fully
recovered from the evil effects in both
cases. The Hessian fly did but little
damage, though farmers fear that it
may give them trouble if April and
May are rainy. There is also danger
still Of winter killing. A severe cold
snap, with continued absence of snow,
would make sad havoc. The prospect
of good crop in Great Britain is now
bright, the weather being decidedly
favorable for growing crops of al
kinds. But with wars and rumors o.
wars, land agitations, and the growing
feeling in foreign countries Of Deepen
dence upon America, there is little
doubt but that all the grain produced
this year will be wanted at q fai
price.-Larld and Home.
