Court.

AOuEbs
At the meeting of tho Superior Court
yesterday morning the jury, which retired
about O'Clock on Thursday to make

for keeping open a tipping house on the
Sabbath, returned into court and reported
that they were unable to agree, and a
mistrial was declared.
The next case called was that of the
State against w. II. KemptOn, charged
with larceny after trust. The defendant,
as was reported By the NEWS a few
weeks ago, was employed ny the agents
of the Domestic Sewing Machine Com
pany in this CITY, and one day disap-
peared with some money belonging to the
firm. The accused plead guilty TO the
indictment and was sentenced to one
year in the pententiary.
Another young man named l.. j. Bern
hard was also arraigned under an indlct-
ment charging him with larceny after
trust, to which he plead guilty and was
also sentenced to one year in the peni-
Tertiary.
The next case tried was a suit in
equity brought bv John Bouhan, com
painsnt, against Warning Russell. defen-
dant. Sometime ago it appears that the

structlOns to dispose Of them. 1t was
claimed that the agent sold one OF the
lots to Bouhan for less
sum than be was authorized to take, and

the sale to Bouhan, whereupon the latter
introduced the proceedings in question.

The following is from the Atlanta Con-

the Hebrews was among tue most classic,

Of No one could hear it without the

statesmen, that to-day some of the most

arguments from the Old Testament scrip
