FOUND GUILTY.-When court open
ed at Lunenburg yesterday morning
Mary Alternately and Pokey Barnes
were brought into court. The jury in
Abernathy's case, which could not
agree Tuesday night, was called for and
they brought in and rendered verdict
against the accused of murder in the
first degree. The prisoner seemed
slightly moved by the verdict, and
afterward asked for new trial, but it
is not thought it will be granted
Mary Abernathy's case being disposed
of, the trial of Pokey Barnes was
continued. Solomon Marsble was again
placed on the stand and made the SAME
statement as published Tuesday. The
prisoner. Pokey Barnes, displayed much
tact in her cross-examination of the
witness, unaided by counsel, and while
Solomon admitted having lied on the
witness stand at the coroner's inquest
be said he had never made any state
ment in which he did not associate the
women with the killing. Company D,
of the First Regiment, arrived yester-
day morning in response to Maj. Derby
shire's telegram requesting more troops

Bimeta1lic Convention.

ATLANTA, Ga, July lS-The bime-
fallists of Georgia who favor the free
coinage of silver and gold by this gov
eminent met in convention at Griffin
to-day. Every part of the State was
represented. Senator John T. Morgan,
of Alabama, made the speech of the
day. Resolutions calling for the i'm
mediate and inpendent free coinage of
silver and gold were adopted and an
address TO the people of the State was
prepared. Senator Morgan in his adj
dress attacked the administration. He
stated that the silver sentiment was
steadily growing all over the country,
but the administration was using the full
power of its patronage 10 counteract
the bimetallic sentiment. He said that
cleveland, in his financial policy agreed
with the northwestern Stairs, that
furnish the democratic candidates, that
the gold issue shall be considered
apart from party creeds and that the sol
i'd South that has voted for him solidly
in three consecutive elections shall be
broken. He would break all who do
not bend to his power" Again Mr..
Mr.. Morgan: II would have liked
Mr.. Cleveland better if, after having
denounced the Senate for amending
the Wilson bill, he had not consigned
the Senate tariff bill to the obloquy of
his sovereign contempt by refusing to
sign it, when every democrat in the
Senate, save one, voted for it. Yet,
we should not grieve over that, for his
silent contempt for that measure seems
to be already changed into tumultuoua
hosannahs in all the camps of mug
wumpery." Senator Morgan denounc-
ed the bond contract.
The convention was called to order
in the grove near the Convention Hall,
nearly FIVE thousand persons being
present.
John j. Hunt, President spalding
county Bimetallic League, was tempo.
rary chairman and Ex-senator Patrick
J. Walsh permanent chairman. Senator
Walsh spoke for half an hour making
an earnest plea for the restoration of
silver as a standard money metal.

SICKNESS AND death come to all men,

fore, people whom g little exertion
fatigues, to whom it is strain to think
who are constantly aware that they
have stomach, who don't sleep well
and get up unrefreshed, would conduce
to their health, happiness and length OF
days by surcease of labor and the
total abandonment of work of all kinds
for month, to be spent either in the
mountains or by the seaside. The vigor
restored by such rest will enable them
to withstand the assaults of time for at

MAYOR STRONG of New York seems
10 have pleased only the democrats,
and them only by reason of the fact
that his administration has made their
success next fall inevitable. He was
elected by an unholy alliance of repub.
licans and Cleveland democrats. But
the former have repudiated, and the
latter are disguised with him, and now
even the negroes have assembled and de-
clared that he has insplted them and
that they fare no better with him than
they did with the democrats. Tam
many will come to its own again next
fall, and then every thing will go on
all right there once more.

The BRITISH ELEcTIoNs.-The re-
suit of yesterdays polling leaves the
different parties in the following condi-
ton:
Conservatives, 2SO; liberal unionists,
80; total unionist, 289; liberals, 65 !;
McCarthyites, IS; Parnellites, 6; labor,
2; total opposition, 101. The unionist
wave yesterday swept with greater
force than ever over Great Britain. With
fewer polls the unionists gained four
teen seats, while the liberals did not
gain single seat. The conservatives
have majority of sixty in the new
House of Commons. The most exciting
contest of the day was at West Leeds,
where Right Hon. Herbert Gladstone
retained his seat by greatly reduced
majority against Col. North. The fig
ures were so nearly equal that Col.
North asked for recount, which con.
frmed MIR. Gladstone's election.

SECRETARY SMITH is now to make
another trip to Georgia, to speak in the
anti-silver cause in that State. His
first assistant is now in Mississippi en-
gagged in the same work, and so are
prominent government officers in vari-
Gus other parts of the country. The laws
of Mr.. Cleveland are evidently not like
those of the Modes and Persians, for he
changes and alters them at his fancy.
During his first term, democratic Office
holders were not allowed to be officers
of democratic clubs, and were removed
for making single democratic speech
at their own homes and after office
hours. What democratic Office holders
are now doing is unquestionably right,
but, if so, what must ssMr. Cleveland
lave been during his previous admin
istration?
