MARSHAL MASTEUFFEL's speech at the

from the point Of view Of those who believe that
by good and sympathetic government the peo-
pie OF Aisace and Lorraine will be recopciied to

been partially successful elsewhere The Arch

Marshal Manteu1el may fairly congratulate
himself upon what he has done himself to bring
about better feeling between the German
Government and the rural population. But in
matters Of nationality, as Was, aqatu, seen In
the case Of Venice, the towns govern the conn

The conversations with Armstrong were
wholly inconsistent with The ialnblike inno-
cence claimed by him US to hA character Of
his offense. As 4 juror, he seemed to think
he was entitled to share In the pro-
ceeds OF any Judgment he might
render; aa a man disposed to favor the
plaintiff. he was frank enough, to give the
scale Of percentages he.wou1d expect and, as
prudent man, evidently. thought he was
entitled to q retainer OF something in hand
to reward him to some extent In case he
should be unable to obtain any verdict. The
scale Of compensation is thus given In Arm
strong's affidavit:
At the meeting at the saloon " Glaser asked af-
not verdict ct SIS ,0o0 OF $3u.000. Then this af
naut asked Glasor what be- expected, when said
Glaser replied. II "a, ,0N he expected $l,0CD; II
verdict Of $4,000 he expected $500; and Il q
verdict Ut $4,000 he expected the sum Of
$1,000"
While the finding Of the Court, the severity
Of his reprimand. and the sentence, RE all
worthy Of commendation. there is question
whether the solldiry OF the mans ignorance
does not rebut the evidence Of his guilt.
Would any man, no matter how adroit,
confess to such profound stupidity, even to
escape punishment for the crime?

THE Beers have issued proclamation
which sounds somewhat like the proclama~
tions Of the American Colonists Immediately
preceding the War Of Independence They
say they do not wish war OF bloodshed, that
they respect the English flag and monarch,
but that they are determined to assert and
secure their Independence. Mai Lanyon,
the commander OF the English forces, has
issued q proclamation Of pardon to all the
Boer rebels who Immediately surrender. So
far the rebels seem to have the best OF 1t. It

from the South in the spring. The coiored
men who settled in Indiana and Kansas ut
Fhe commencement Of this year are highly
pleased with their prospects, and have en-
:ouraged their friends In the South to come
North where their children may be edu-
Gated, and where their political and Der

COMMERCIAL, JURORS.

The revelations made III the case Of Arm-
strong VS.. the Uinsda}e Marble Company in
the trial pending III the Circuit Court are
worthy OF public attention. One Of the ju-
rors In that case opened an acquaintance
with the plaintiff, in which he referred to
the fact that he was Juror, and disposed to
be friend to the plaintiff. The latter co,n-
mun1cated the fact to his counsel, and, under
their advice. held further meetings with the
juror, In which the latter stated his previous
experience and success In manipulating yer-
diets, stated his scale Of prices for fayora-
Die finding, and solicited as present favor
the loan OF SIS. The counsel for the plaint-
1T informed the counsel for the defendant,
and the two consulted with the Court, and
uae result vas TINT on Saturday judge
Moran, before resuming the t:ial, questioned
the Juror as to whether he had had any CONVEX
sat1on concerning the case with any person,
and was promptly answered In the negative
The plaintiff was sworn and made his state-
ment' to which the Juror added his OWL, con-
nrm1ng that Of the plaintiff, adding, by way
OF explanation, that his previous denial of
naEinR had any conversation on the subject
was Intended to deny having conversea with
any person not engaged in the case, he un-
derstandlng TINT the prohibition was of con
vetsation with outside persons only. The
juror seemed to think he had violated M
law nor any rul" Of proprioty. The Court.
theTeupon, after very proper characterize.
ton Of the offense, sent the juror to iau for
sixty days.
One OF the most striking parts OF this casa
is the density Of the jurors mind. The
man is a sailor by profession, serving on q
tug. Navigation being closed, he was will
ing to give bis services to the country in
aiding the administration OF justice. He was
not member OF the regular panel, but had
been picked up in the street-perhaps at Cor
