The Tyranny Of French Magistrates.

to incredulity, still preserves faith and
a superstition superstition in the
forms of justice as they are practiced in
France, an absolute faith in every man

charges the duties of magistrate The
bourgeoisie and the people have brought
about revolutions, erected barricades,
poured out their blood in overturning
four thrones within a century, but,
nevertheless, submit without protest to
the tyranny of some hundreds Of men
who are examining magistrates. These
magistrates are answerable to themselves
alone; and the law delivers into their
hands without responsibility the life,
liberty and honor of their fellow citizens.

MAITLAND MENTION.
Death of Rev. McCorkIe-Promise of
Prosperous Season.

a Prosperous season.
Maitland, Fla, Dec 3-Yesterday was
a sad day for our little city The pub
lie school was closed and business sus-
pended to pay the last tribute of respect
to the remains OF Rev. DR.. S. V. McCor-
kle, late pastor of the Presbyterian
churches of Oakland, Apopka and Matt
land before their removal to Tennessee
for burial. The deceased was a prominent
member of the synod of Florida, and had
held many positions of honor in that body,
as well as in this presbytery. He was
also a trustee of Rollins College, at Win
ter Park, and treasurer of this city. He
came to Florida many years ago on ac-
count of feeble health, and settled in
Maitland, where he had an attractive
home.
Maitland seems to be entering upon an
unusually prosperous season. We now
have four general stores all doing a good
business New winter residents are COM
ing in and renting every available house,
and our winter hotel, the Park house, has
been opened to a goodly number of guests,
by Manager IS. R. Thompson, an experience
ed hotel man from Bellfontaine, o. Bish-
op Whipple and family are expected to-
day and Mrs. Whipple's mother and broth
er, from Massachusetts, will occupy the
rectory of the Church of the Good Shep-
herd opposite the bishops winter home.
A handsome new residence is being cree
ted at Citrosa Grove by William Willett,
and DR.. Lewis of Kentucky has purchas-
ed and is improving the old Scarlet place
in town. The indications are that there
will be no vacant houses here this winter.
The trains are now crowded with pas
sengers and among them are a great
many home seekers and investors. There
are several of this class in Maitland now,
some after tobacco lands, while others
want orange groves or farm lands. A
few sales have already been made.
