Judicial Supererogation.

II cannot help saving that it is the most
disgraceful verdict ever heard. Such was
Judge Stewards comment in the Criminal
Court yesterday when the jury declared that
Frank Delcher and John Arnold were not
guilty OF violating the law against gambling.
After his criticism of the verdict the Judge
turned to the TWO men who had been acquit.

The above is taken from the Baltimore

jury was composed of disreputable persons,
who violated their oaths and rendered Il yer
diet contrary to the law and evidence, he is
censurabIe for selecting such disreputable
persons.
But Judge Stewards course is to be viewed
in a still more important light. To bow to
the majesty of the law and respect the deci-
sions of the courts is the part Of good citizen
ship. Trial by jury is held TO be sacred, the
Safeguard of the citizen. If judges upon the
bench are permitted to discredit trial by
Jury and bring into contempt their findings,
then will respect for courts decline. And
if judges are permitted, unwarrantably. and
without the pale of their duties, to intimidate
iuries, by characterzing their verdicts as dis
graceful. verdicts may be rendered according
t. the supposed will of the presiding judge
and not in accordance with the law and facts,
Justice thus might be perverted. Men do
not care to be publicly held up as violating
their oaths, or as ignoramuses.
As to the guilt or innocence Of the accused,
Judge Stewart had nothing to do. His
course was outside of his duties, and deserves
the severest condemnation. 1t is not such as
would perhaps call for impeachment, but he
deserves censure by the legislature, and
should receive it.

Senator Wilson's Speech.

One of the ablest speeches against the
Force bill was that Of Senator Wilson, OF
Maryland, on Monday last. He reviewed
the measure from n constitutional standpoint,
and pointed ont with unmistakable clearness
and well sustained argument that the trainers
OF the constitution never contemplated such
provisions us are contained in the pending
bill. The legal part of his speech attracted
the attention of the lawyers in the Senate,
who have very high regard for Senator
Wilson'S judicial ability.
When he reached that part of his speech
which treats of pariisanship he commanded
the interest of a large number of Senators on
both sides Of the chamber. In language dig
niied, but none the less vigorous, he drew n
striking picture of scenes apt to follow the
passage of Il measure which the people and
the press generally condemn. He accused
the trainers of this bill of seeking to establish
trust in political corruption and sectional
ism, and predicted riots, disorder and blood
shed should an attempt be made to enforce
all the unholy propositions embraced in the
measure. He appealed to the fair minded
men on the other side of the chamber to
pause before joining their less reasonable
associates in stirring up sectional animosl
ties that are likely TO produce unhappy re-
suits. His contribution 20 the debate stands
out as one of the most forcible protests
against the bill.

A Florida Man Taps an Underground
River.

JACKSONVILLE, Dec. 14.-While boring a
well on his vineyard and orangery, situated
on the outskirts of Econfna, Henry Hard
castle recently struck what must be an i'm
mense underground river, and which poured
its water forth at such tremendous rate that
the men who were doing the boring narrowly
escaped being overtaken by the flood, which,
gushing down the side of the slight incline on
which the fruit farm is situated, had socn
worn channel to the dry bed of an ancient
creek This it soon filled with rushing,
furious tide, which finally emptied itself into
the Appalachicola, and WHICH has continued
to flow unchecked or without signs of dimin-
ishing.
The water is clear, sparkling and very cold,
with only slight mineral flavor. Fish by the
thousands have been thrown out and are of
several varieties, some of which are of kind
unknown TO ichthyologists, being perfectly
colorless, while others are translucent and
gelatinous, and all are without eyes, and very
small, except few of a sort resembling our
pickerel, and which measure from foot TO
three and halfin length, and are provided
with very large pointed teeth.
Great damage has been done to his fruit
and vines, and Mr.. Hardcastle, seeing no
prospect of the food abating, has offered
reward to stimulate the ingenuity of the local
engineers to find way of controlling and uti-
izing the water. People from miles around
have been coming in crowds to inspect the
wonder, and one or two venturesome spirits
have narrowly escaped drowning.

Dear parents, cease your weeping
Above the spot where am sleeping;
My time was short, but blest was He
Who called me away to eternity.
Thy death has made our home a gloom,
shadow on his features fair and thin:
But softly from that agonized and painful room
Two angels issued where but one went in.

A lovely flower nipped in the bud,
We are sure will bloom in Heaven above;
Beneath the shades oftwilight in the narrow casket
They gently laid their darling to sleep among the
dead.
Mournfully, sadly they laid in the tomb
His form, though his spirit had fed
To Jesus, his Saviour, who's taken him home
While sad hearts are saying He's dead
When they leave this world of changes,
When they leave this world of care,
They shall find their missing loved one
In their Fathers mansion fair.

Hicks Predictions Verified.

In the weather forecast Of Rev. lrl Hicks
for December, published in the ADVOCATE on
November 29th, is the following:
The next regular period, however is from
the 18th TO 18th. The equinox of Mercury
on the 18th, with moons first quarter on
same date. and earth about the crisis of
winter solstice, with snow and sleet-look for
hoary sleet-past the reactionary days, the
22d and 23d. Almost beyond peradventure
heavy winter gales and storms will occur
about this time. The 18th, 18th and 18th, we
mention as central danger days, which dates,
with the reactionary 22d and 23d, promise
storms on sea and land to a degree that
ought to excite the most prudent care and
watchfulness. Much hard freezing will fol-
low the storms at these times. The full
moon on the 18th ought to raise on the rim
of cold, Christmas night, widespread with
wide and deep eXpanses of fresh snow, sleet
and ice.
Here are a few dispatches in the daily
papers of Wednesday:
BrEYA VISTA, Va, Dec. ia heavy snow
is falling here, and the indications are that it
will continue all night.
NORFOLK. Va, Dec. lG.-Storming here

KNOXVILLE, Tenn, Dec 1G.-A severe

M. and at 10 O'Clock tonight promises to
continue. The snow is six inches deep IN
upper Fast Tennessee, and there is heavy
snow in the mountains So far it has melted
as fast as it fell here.
WASHINGTON, Dec. lG.-S p. MA storm
of considerable intensity has appeared on
the South Carolina coast. Northeasterly
gales. accompanied by snow, will prevail on
the Atlantic coast on Wednesday from Maine
to North Carolina, and high northwesterly
winds on the South Atlantic coast.
The storm of Wednesday and Thursday
morning was unusually severe. In some
places it was more damaging than the blizzard,
of 1883. At Roanoke and Staunton, Va,
the fall of snow was from two to three feet
deep, and several houses were crushed in by
the weight of snow. In Tennessee, North
Carolina, Virginia, Pennsylvania, Maryland,
New Jersey, New York and the New Eng.
land States railroads were blocked, buildings
blown down and unroofed and great damage
done TO shipping along the coast.

Senator Vance, of North Carolina, very
pertinenty remarked that the Force bill ''de-
clared not that the State laws were inefficient,
but that the State officials were dishonest,
while Federal officials, chosen from the mass
of the people of the same State, had necessa-
rily to be virtuous and pure. In other words
a citizen of Maryland, for instance, would be
dishonest rs a State election official, and hon
est if he held a Federal election commission.
The only way to meet the Force bill, if it
should pass, is by force. This is either free
government or it is not and the matter should
be speedily tested, and will be if the Federal
government undertakes to control elections
for the benefit of the controlling but repudi-
ated party.

Christmas.

Christmastide is again here, the most I'M
porlant and most joyous festival of all the
year There is little probability that 1t Will
ever he superseded by or become OF secondary
inheritance to Thanksgiving Day, rs intimated
bya Baltimore paper recently. Thanksgiving
Day is an admirable institution. 1t lisa spec
tacle for the admiration of angels and men to
see n whole nation bow the knee reyerently
and devoully, TO offer to the Most High the
sacrifice of praise and thanksgiving for health
and happiness. for peace and plenty, for the
fruits of the field. the orchard and the vine,
for the increase Of the Hocks and herds, for
the Weld of the earth, the air and the water,
in all that ministers to the comfort and ENJOY
ment of man. But after all that can be sand
of il. il IA human institution, whiie Christmas
is divine, owing its origin to the great All
Father. The whole hierarchy ofheavGn joined
in the celebration Of the first Christmas day,
such a celebration as the world never wit
messed before. and cannot be Appropriated
by all the appliances Of earth. Irumpets
and shaums. comets and cymbals, and the
high swelling organ peal, lend their effect
to the celebrations of men. But on that tirst
Christmas morning its advent was hailed by
celestial chorsters with the loftiest minslresy
of heaven, and the burden Of the glorious
anthem, as it rolled over the plains of Judea,
thrilling the shepherds and all who heard It's
enrapturng strains, was GLORY to God in the
highest, on earth peace, good will 10 man,
while a supernatural glory filed the air and
shed its radiance over the scene. The loiuest
imagination cannot comprehend the event or
adequately describe its ineiiable glory.
Nothing like it was ever seen by the eye or
heard by the ear OF mortal man before. Not
even the dawn Of creation equalled 1t IN It's
superlative grandeur and sublimity, when 1.-THE
Morning Stars sang together and all the Sons
of God shouted for JOY, the lirst-born
Sons of Light raising high acclaim over
the accomplishment Of creation by the fiat
of the Great First Cause, and He, behold
ing. .'saw that it was good. Let all unite
to honor and reverence this holy festival. 1t
is II time for the OVERLOOKING Of the we'll
springs of JOY and gladness in the human
heart. 1t is II time for family reunions, for
the assembling of absent loved ones around
the family hearth. 1t is 4 time for the inter
change of sympathy and love between mem
hers ofthe same household, of kindly greetings
between friends and ncighbors, and Il time to
remember the poor, forgetting not that sit is
more blessed to give than to receive.
