Mr.. Ker, of Philadelphia, one of the
government counsel in the star route
trials, saws, regarding Mr.. Ingersolls
views of the manner in which juries are
tempered with Ia Philadelphia, that he
seems to have very peculiar notions,
and is not at all particular about what
he says. The other day in his argu-
ment before the jury he publicly an
nOunCed his doubt that there is a God
and in his closing remarks he said :
There is a painting in the Louvre, a
painting OF resolution or despair and
love. 1t represents the night of the cru
cifxion. The world is wrapped in
shadow The stars are dead, and yet in
the darkness is seen kneeling form.
1t is Mary Magdalene, with loving
lips and hands pressed against
the bleeding feet of Christ. But
Mr. Ingersoll did not understand or
believe in the scenes represented in the
painting, so he got the names mixed,
and called the kneeling form Mary Mag
dalene instead of Mary, the faithful
mother of Our Saviour. We have bad
some hung juries in Philadelphia,
through the efforts of gang of profess
sional jury tiXers, not one of whom was a
member of our bar That gang has
been broken up. Some are in prison
and the others are fugitives from justice.
Perhaps Mr. Ingersoll has been assOciat-
ing with some of the tugitives, and, like
the names in the painting, has got the
professions mixed. / know that Mr..
Ingersoll has never practised in the
Philadelphia courts, and | am confident
that he never will. To practise there he
would have to be examined by a board
and obtain a certificate that he is learned
in the law. Then, again, we have
statute making blasphemy a crime. He
might find these obstacles insurmounta.

The New Orleans TTmes-DemOcrGi
notices an experiment with g quantity
of jute raised in Point COupee parish.
1t was planted after the overflow had
gone down, and was, consequently,
barely three months old; but such is the
adaptability of the soil to jute that 1t had
attained in thai short period of time a
height of ten feet. A gentleman int
rested in jute culture, and particularly
in the process of dsintegrating it and
reducing the fibre, experimental on the
plant and reduced it to fibre, and in per
feet condition for the manufacture of
bagging, by his process, in twenty-fOur
hours. Several varieties of fibre were
produced. the long, the rough, and the
c0mbed, but all in condition to be at
once utilized in making bagging 1t is
claimed that the machine with which
the experiment was conducted will be
able to disintegrate 10000 pounds of
iute in twenty-four hours, and that the
process is not expensive.

Complaints of the bossing practiced
by the Secretary of the Republican Con
gressi0nal Committee multiply. A
Southern Republican said in Washing
ton the other night: 'Tbe committee is
undertaking to do what it has no right
to do-that is to say, its Secretary is the
Secretary of the Congressional Commit
tee when he is not member of it. He is
simply its executive officer. He does what
he is told to do in theory; in practice he is
doing just as he pleases. He is acting as
though he had been authorized to say who
should be recognized as the regular Re
publican candidate for Congress in every
district in the United States, and how
much he should receive in the way of
money, speakers or documents. He is
the autocrat to whom all appeals for
recognition or sympathy must be ad-
dressed. He determines such appeals.
He is the great MOgul. If the commit.
tee had delegated all its powers to the
Executive Committee, and the Executive
Committee had delegated all its powers
to the secretary of the committee, the
latter could not be more autocratic than
he is.

paper that there has been a change ia
vorable to the Republican party in the

says:
"There is no change, decided or other

Boston contemporary that the Republi-
cans here have been somewhat depressed
is correct. They have been decidedly
depressed, and are still depressed. The
whisky interest is not divided or, if
divided, the fact has not come to the
ears of those most interested. The
whisky interest. as it is called, and
especially the distillers, have for years
been in the interest of the Republican
party and since that interest has been
betrayed and sold out by the Republican
party no surprise is created that we now
find the distillers allied with the Demo
