The proceedings of the trial were
kept secret, though made public after
ward in q document now very rare.
Particular interest was manifested at
headquarters and throughout the camp
near Morristown. Rumors were cir
culated, some true and some false, for
instance, on the last day of the ses-
sion, when the closing address was
made for the prosecution, an officer
wrote from the camp of Stark's' bri-
gade that Arnold had made spirited
defense and added " 1t is expected he
will be acquitted with honors.
General Reed attended the trial and
made very elegant speech to the
Court. (" In fact, General Reed, the
president of Pennsylvania and chief
prosecutor, said nothing to the Court.
His name appears in the proceedings
only in the copies of documents sub
mitted. At one time in the proceed
ings Arnold was rendered anxious by
the absence of a witness, Colonel
Mitchell. He asked and obtained an
adjournment until he could secure
further evidence. Colonel Alexander
Hamilton had just testified, and so
far as it went his evidence was entire

At this juncture his wife wrote to
Arnold an affectionate letter, from

Another phase of the congressional
re-districting plan, in this State, has
arisen to plague the people of this
particular section of the State. 1t is
plan whereby Union County is to be
attached to Morris, Sussex and Warren
Counties. This is done to meet the
objections of Mercer County. Mercer

Comptroller Hancock puts, it by being
placed in district with three Demo-

to put Warren in the Union County

along with Warren, but we really
don't want it. F"

No. 3. The violet.

OF all the spring flowers none are so
we'll known as the violets. They can be
found growing almost everywhere, though
they thrive best in cool, shady places.
There are several kinds of violets; some
have yellow flowers, some white, but those
most often met with are purple or blue
Some kinds have round leaves others
have arrow-shaped leaves, one kind has
leaves of the shape of birds foot, with
five claws and is. therefore, known as the
Birds Foot Violet. Those In the picture
are the common purple or blue violets.
and, as you can see, their leaves are
heart-shaped. and notched along their
edges like the teeth OF a saw. When
they first push up through the grass the
leaves are tightly rolled up and the
flower buds are hidden away underneath
them. After a few warm days the leaves
unfold and the flowers open, but they do
not look up. but always hang their heads
a little shyly. They are of all shades
OF blue and purple, and their petals are
marked with dark veins that lead like IT.

This real use of magic in the London

ions very popular and after that the god
mother travelled with them.
But the coach was left in London for
use among the poorer classes. There
were some flssy people who wrote to
The Times that ii was a shame to take
people in dirty clothes out in such a m ag-

and ono horse would be far better, but
Cinderella who had given orders for its
