The case Of Samuel Tucker, colored, fined by
Mayor Beckham several weeks ago 300 aud
sentenced to six months in Jail for shooting at
Harry Boiler on tho streets, was up In the
Corporation Court yesterday on an appeal
Mr.. Edmund Burke, counsel for the prisoner,
told tho jury Boiler was trying to steal tho
affections Of dusky damsel, when the orlgl.
nal lover arrived, accompanied by Tucker and
others. scuflle ensued, In which an old
fired twice. Boiler feeling guilty OF wrong
doing took TO his heels, imagining that he was
about to be murdered by Tucker, who, tho
evidence would show, fired the loads out of
the pistol, which Emma Houck, the girl In
question, had threatened to kill some one
with, simply to prevent injury to any one of
the party. Mr.. Leonard Marbury appeared
for the Commonwealth, and asked the fury to
confirm the decision OF tho Mayor. The fury
after hearing the evidence retired, and In less
than five minutes returned and presented
verdict OF not guilty, and tho prisoner was dis
charged.

the Instructions were as plain as he could
make them. II the jury did not believe the
Virginia Midland Company was In charge OF
the train at the timo OF tho accident then the
verdict must be FOR the defendant, the Yir-
ginia Midland road, but II the jury did believe
that the train was In charge OF Virginia Mid
land employees then that road was responsible
for the accident and the verdict must be for
the plaintiff The jury then RETIRED and after
being out for half an hour and falling 10 agree,
was discharged until this morning. Colonel
i. l.. Smith, counsel for the Baltimore ( Po.

was I'm no wise responsible for tho killing Of
the cows. II is not believed that the present

Jurors informed the reporter this morning that
he did not think an agreement was possible.

Two angels stand on either hand
OF Allah-so the legend reads,
one writing down tho good We do,
The other oil our evil deeds.
But II the repentance fllls the heart
Before the sunset hours close,
Tho kindly spirit drops o tear
And down upon the page II flows;
And thus he, plying, wipes away
The record Of our sins that day.
And now, though we nre shown the path
In which We may not go amiss-
We write our records for ourselves,
And make or mar our lives In this;
II, with uncovered heart we kneel,
Forgiveness meets US soon or late,
And in the world 10 como we SEQ
The beauty Of the Golden Gate,
And Christ renews our souls as when
He looked ON Mary Magdalen.
And go this day, II wo but pray,
God will every crimo forgive,
Send us light to show the way,
And teach us better how TO live.
The kindly heart, the gentle word,
The feeling breast, their stories tell,
We wrestlo with angelic forms
AS Jacob did on Peniel;
Nor must He leave us in distress,
Nor must We lose Him Till He bless.
