on the bench at 10 o'clock. The jury came
in few minutes later. The clerk asked
Gentlemen of the jury, have you
agreed upon verdict?"
The foreman replied, 1--WE have at the
same time handing the clerk a written
verdict. which was promptly passed to
Judge Woodward. After reading the YER
dict the judge returned the paper to the
clerk. The latter, addressing the jury,
said:
Gentlemen. your verdict in the case of
the Commonwealth VS.. James Martin ct
al. is not guilty, so say you alp
I'VE do was the reply.
The jury was then polled and each jul
ror answered not guilty as his name was
called.
An attempt at applause was quickly
suppressed by the Judge. The jury took
only one ballot. 1t was unanimous for ac-
quittal. 1t is said the jury was prepared
for a verdict before leaving the box.

Hamley eluded him and Sims re-
turned to Whitman county, but left a
deputy on guard. This deputy per-
suaded a man in the neighborhood to
join him in taking the hermit. When
they approached his hut he ran and
they followed, calling upon him to halt
He refused and they fired, breaking his

NEGRO OFFICERS FOR
NEGRO VOLUNTEERS.

There is forming in Louisiana a
regiment of negro soldiers immune
to yellow fever.
Under a ruling at Washington
no negro in the regiment can &C.
cupy a higher Office than that of
second lieutenant.
Edward Barnes, an intelligent
negro, writes from New Orleans to
the World protesting against the
injustice.
His protest seems to be well
taken. If negroes are fit to be
commissioned officers at al, as is
admitted by opening the grade of
second lieutenant to them, why are
they not fit, when competent, to be
captains of negro companies in a
negro regiment?
Governor Tyler of Virginia is an
old-time, conservative, dyed-in-the-
wool Virg inian Democrat. yet he
has taken the ground that if We are
to accept the services of negro
citizens as soldiers we should open
to those of them who are fit the
reward of promotion within their
own corps. We should let the
negro volunteers select their own
officers as we let white troops do.
subject of course to examination
for fitness.
What incentive to gallantry and
good service is there to a second
lieutenant who is denied ali posi-
bility of promotion, however con-
spicuously good his service may be?
As for the social question, the
rule tends to precipitate rather
than allay difficulty on that score.
For if there are negro second lieu
tenants their white fellow officers
must of necessity recognize them
as men bearing commissions.
Would it not be wiser to open
all Offices In negro regiments to
negroes, or else to open nonei-

But we did decide, however,
that whenever We had any occasion
