Upon those wond rous pictures. here displayed.

80 perfect that the features seem agl0w
WitlPife and feeling; and the lips, apart.

As each. IN turn. its lOyelneSs reveals.
And fruits 50 perfect in their lovely tints

Each limpld globule, till we long to touch
Their rOtund plumpnesS. for they seem 50 true.
one masterpiece. of AL, seems tempting most
The appetite; SO lucfous seems the peach
And clustered grapes While near them lies

That seems TO lure us on TO taste OF each
On every side are pictures OF such worth
one scarce can choose. or say which pleaseS

For are they not all perfect and the mind
In wonder and bewilderment IS lost.
IL all seems like a glimpse of Paradise.
Or like some lovely dream oil fairy-landi

But some creation of magiciaD's wand;

Jury Decides ft is No Crime 20 Steal an
Umbrella.
:sPECIAI. TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPATcHl
RICHMOND. Va, November pa remark
able case was disposed of by jury here to-day,
in which the decision of the Police Justice was
reversed. Alfred Richardson, a small negro
boy. was sentenced to so days by the Police
Justice for stealing an umbrella. His counsel,
Hon. D. c. Richardson, took an appeal to the
Hastings Court The facts were really
against the boy. bus his counsel de-
termined to arouse the sympathy of the
jury In his speech for the defense he con-
tended that it would be an outrage to
send anybody to jail for taking an umbrella;
that nobody had ever been Jailed for that He
stated that on one occasion a party CT gentle
men placed an umbrella in the passage before
the dining room of the Spottswood Hotel first
anchoring it with long string. The walters
were let into the secret. and watch set The
result proved that every guest who left the
dining room attempted to take the umbrella
with him-merchants, lawyers Legislators, all
had it under way when checked by the anchor.
In view of the facts the counsel asked an en-
lghtened jury if it would not be an outrage to
jail a boy for taking an umbrella The Jury,
without leaving their seats, brought in a YER
dict of not guilty.
