MARrINsBURG. w. VA, October IL. -
At the trial Of the State VS.. John
Bartges, charged with the murder of
Charles McCabe, whose body was found
In a boat on the Potomac river, which
was held during the present term Of the
Circuit Court, the question Of jurisdic-
ton was mooted. Judge Z. Boyd
Faulkner indicated that, upon that
question he would instruct the jury
that the Circuit Court Of Berkeley
county has Jurisdiction TO try the &C.
cused for any crime committed upon
that part OF the river opposite the
county of Berkeley TO low water mark
on the Maryland shore thereof unless it
be shown TO the jury that the accused
are citizens OF the State of Maryland.
The Judge takes the ground that the
question OF jurisdiction is thus settled
by a compact between the State OF Vir-
ginla and that OF Maryland and the
statutes made in this State In pursuance
thereof. This view having been ex-
pressed, the question Of jurisdiction was
o before jury, and from oil the evil
dence in the case the defendant was
found not guilty. This question has
never been judicIally settled and IL is
one Of great importance to the ~counties
composing this court and all others bor-
dering on the Potomac river.

Wonderful Machine.

There is no doubt that man is a fine
mechanism, but like every other ma
chine he wears out by friction. 1t lie
said that he is born again every two or
three years. His body is virtually re-
made from food. To retard this max
Ing over is radically wrong, as q man
loses 80 much vitality in the delayed
process that IL takes q long time to re-
cuperate. The process Of making anew
is so accelerated by pureing with
BRANDRETH's PILLS that a new man,
as 1t were, may be made in two or three
months, and the change in the mechan-
ism is such that the worn out part is re-
placed by the new without the usual
running down Of the entire machine.
You don't have to stop for repairs.
Purge away with BRANDRETH's FILLS
the old, diseased and worn out body.
They are purely vegetable, absolutely
harmless, and safe to take st any time.

MISUNDERSTANDING irregular but IN
the main hrmer than the share speculation.
STOCKs.-The fact that to-day was, to q
certain extent, regarded as the beginning
of the end Of the contest at Washington
between the silver and anti-silver forces IN
the Senate, had more than a little TO DO
with the course of the speculation on the
Stock Exchange. In certain cliques the
continuous session experiment was re-
garded as Of doubtful efficacy and
this feeling was reflected In q sell
ing movement which brought out
considerable long stock 4 the bears
we're quite ready TO take advantage OF the
situation and TO make q drive all along the
line. London was in the market too as a
seller, but not 10 any very great extent. A
notable exception to the general depression
was the trading IN Whisky, which was de-
cidedly buoyant and led in transactions.
The starting up of all the trust distillerles
and the prospective advance IN the spirit
tax helped the bull movement in livestock,
which rose from 30B, last nights
final figures, TO 3S4c, with a reaction OIL Is
per cent, making the advance Tor the day
81 per cent. The general market showed
very little change at the opening, but a
rush Of selling orders sent prices down ga
