Certlin curious leaf insects of
the tropics have wings that mimic
leaves not only in color but in the
veins, and on the ground so close
ly resemble leaves that even ants
are deceived. DR.. Sharp tells the
London Llnnean Society, more
over, that this resemblance
amounts almost to identity OF mi
mute structure, and the coloring
matter cannot be distinguished
from that Of leaves. Even the eggs
have a slrikingly vegetable APP

Aco,,itta,l of Feaples.

The second trial of w. A. Feagles for
the murder of County Treasurer John
II. Caddell, which engaged the Court Of
Pulaski county at Newbern, for eight or
ten days, closed on the 2nd, with a ver-
dict of not guilty. Feagles is a mer>
chant, and Coddell, the County Treas
urer, was waylaid and shot as he was
going to his home in the county from
the County-seat Suspicion was direct
ed to Feagles; he was arrested, indicted
and arraigned for trial. All the evidence
was circumstantial and of such a charac-
ter that no sane jury could haye brought
in verdict of guilty under it. We con-
fess that we always feel relieved when a
jury acquits of murder prisoner against
whom nothing but circumstantial evil
to take human life by legal process or
any other mode, but when the evidence
necessarily leaves doubt the accused
ought always to have the benefit of it
1t is better that ninetynine guilty men go

should be punished.
Senator Morgan, of Alabama, one of
the ablest Democrats in the country, is
determined to have a free and full dis

The defeat of the Bland silver bill in
the House, has caused rejoicing in the
ranks of the Third Party or Peoples
Party in the South. They now claim
that they will sweep several States, and
all the free coinage Democratic will Join
in with them. The man who bets his
money on the Third Party, breaking the
solid Democratic vote, will lose it. let
the silverites boast as they may.

1t is positively stated that the Gover>
nor will call an extra session of the Leg

ernor can be considered by the Legisla-
