nsarable Not Afraid to Go.

An ex-Appeal reporter saw at the
city Jail yesterday morning Solomon
Marable and Mary Alternately, two Of
the three negroes charged with the
murder Of Mrs. Pollard in LunenburS
county some weeks ago. Marable Is
confined in the dungeon, where he has
been ever since he was brought to
Petersburg, while Mary Alternately and
Poky Barnes, the two colored women,
occupied cell on one OF the lower floors
with several other colored females.
Marable was told by the reporter that
the county court of Lunenburg would
open next Monday and that it was likely
that his case would be called for trial at
this term. He was then asked II he
would DO afraid to go to the county
courthouse to stand his trial without
the protection of the military, and his
reply was that he would not. He then
remarked: II hsven's done anything to
be afraid Of"
Mary Alternately, when asked the
same question, said: ~ don'tknow what
they mought do"
Should the prisoners be indicted by
the grand jury next Monday, they will
then, In all likelihood be taken from
hero to Blackstone Tuesday morning on
the train, leaving Petersburg at 1870
o'clock. The distance from Blackstone
to Lunenburg Court House is about
twenty miles. II the prisoners go in
charge Of the military they and the
soldiers will have to travel in wagons,
as 1t Is not supposed that the troops
would be required to march such dis
lance. The mem bers Of the Petersburg
Greys sre very anxious to know whether
or not Governed O'Ferrsll will call upon
them to go with the prisoners. Some OF
trip. The feeling against the prisoners
in the county Is said to be still very
bitter ana large crowd will doubtless

THE MOUSE LORDS.
The Marquis of SALISBURY Defends 4

The Marquis of Salisbury Defends That
Body From tho Attacks of Liberals.
LONDON. July G.-The Marquis of
Salisbury in tho house of lords to-day
replied to the speech which Lord Rose
berry recently delivered before the
Eighty Club in which he attacked the
house OF lords. The premier traversed
Lord Rosebery's statement that the
house Of lords mad Legislative preponder.
ance. On the contrary he rted the
house of lords had no share in the votes
by which government was displaced,
nor in the provision OF funds for the
public services. Continuing, the Mar
Quis OF Salisbury asked what the lords
had done to induce Lord Rosebery TO
submit proposal which had not been
heard within parliament for ESQ years.
The house Of lords merely rejected
the evicted tenants bill, which he as.
serted was impracticable In the shape
presented. To such bills tho lords pro.
posed continued resistance (cheers).
Their real crime was the rejecti of
home rule, which was the question
upon which the electorate WAS now
asked to decide. II homo rule had
been passed the marquis also said, It
would have been irrevocable, and the
country had been saved from this situa.
ton by so-called "Manacles"-the
lords.
He put to the radical party, that this
question with the disestablishment of
the English church, were measures
which set the mass Of people one against
the other. and which would produce the
greatest possible injury. The govern
ment, however, would give tsen.iou to
other problems, which though difficult
yes promised TO alleviate the lot OF the
y n
tural depression.
In conclusion the marquis of Salisbury
expressed the opinion that the house OF
lords deserved the thanks of the coun-
try for clearing the field OF sterile and
angrY conflicts and fer bringing about
the consideration of measures TO ameli-
crate tho social condition Of the people.

Killed Instantly.

The man who was killed near White
hall, n. Y by the excursion train that
went from here to the 14-miie island
last week, was William Stoddard, a
farm hand living six miles out of
Whitehall. The morning of the acci-
dent he came to Whitehall and got
beastly drunk. Owing to his uncouth
appearance he was hooted at by the
street urchins and to escape their de-
rision whipped up his horse and tried
to cross the railway track in front of
the passing train. The horse was
struck by the engine and killed in
stantly; Stoddard was thrown through
the fence that guards the culvert. his
head striking a sharp stone killing him
instantly. His brains were mingled
in the dust, a sickeuing sight t. the ex-
cursionists.
