The Somerset Democrat, has been shown
a letter dated the 18th inst. received by one
of the counsel from juror In the case IN
which Joseph and David Nicely, were con-
victed of the murder of farmer UmbeIger.
In the letter the Juror says II have been
thinking great deal about it (the We: d ct)
and am not satisfied. 1t has been bearing
on my mind ever since, it was not ny will
that it was decided that way. The evil
dence was not sufficient to convince me of
their guilt, and l would have stayed in that
jury room until now IL i had not heen over
powered by men and sickness. | can see
their (Joseph and David NiceIy's) faces
before me every night and do not like
that.
Descriptions OF the new postal cards,
which are soon to he Issued by the Depart
ment, show that the cards themselves will
be beauties. There will be three sizes
when the contracts have been filed. The
FIRST OF these will be much larger tEan the
one most appreciated by business men. Its
size will be sufficient to admit of the print
ing of business card at the top and still
allow plenty of room for the message below
The second will be for the brief notices and
the like. For the ladies', who are beginning
to look much more fayorabIy upon these
convenient mediums of communication,
there will be a still smaller cne, finer in
quality. and more aesthetic In appearance.
The old buff color gives way in all three
sizes to whittier shade, which everybody
will welcome.
