Lud 6. A Merciful Judos.?At Chester, England, a woman was recently tried for killing ber husband. The testi? mony showed that she bore patiently long continued provocation. At last, in a moment of ungovernable irrita? tion, she threw a sharpened steel ut him, struck him, and fatally woauded bim. The judge believed from the evidenc --, that tbe consequences of the act were deeply deplorod by tbe wife; that she did all in her power to aid tbe man after wounding bim.and therefore, although tbe jury convicted, ho made tliA foiininino nninnu addre^w to the criminal: "All the real right in this case was on your side, all the real wroog on your husband's, and God forbid that I should punish you. I will be no party to it?I will not even make this judgment complete. I will not allow it to be said by anybody, that you are a convicted felon, for a conviction is not complete nutil a sen? tence is passed, and I mean to pans no sentence at all. I shall merely ask you to enter into your own recognizanoe, to come up for judgment, if called npon; und nobody in the world will ever call npon you?God forbid they ever should." Tbe meeting at the Cooper Institute, in New York, shows us what a feeliug of indiguation the Louisiana affair has oreated. As soon as the doors were open a roth was made, and in an in? stant, almost, the vast ball was packed. One man, who wishud to get out, had to he passed over the shoulders of the audience. Perhaps nothing is more prejudicial to the pro, ?r ussimilation of food than disputation. The miud becomes irri? tated, and instantaneously the stomach sympathizes. A dinner table is the worst possible place for an argument, which may ojBily become heated und acrimonious. Nearly all of the colored preachers nt Memphis have held u meeting und passed resolutions, cutting themselves loose from the Radicals utnl carpet baggors, and resolving hereafter to af? filiate politically with that class which they have found to be their best friends?the Southern people. Many persons will bo surprised to learn that Liverpool. England, is not an incorporated city. It is merely a town, and u movement is proposed in the direct ion of obtaining a city char? ter.

"?"T>~ j -? ? MujITahy Rulb fM Cuba and the UstrnsD States ?Count Valmaseda, who baa been named to assume tba Captain-Generalship of Cuba, was in command of tbo Spanish forces in that island in 1868, when the insurrection began. He is brutal and imporious, but these qualities io military men are not often allied with intellect Hie first expeditions were comparatively unsuccessful, aod before the year closed bo had to send bume for reinforce? ment*. He begau the campaign with 20,000 men, aud the additional troops wbich be required from Spain gave him 32 000, besides 40,000 volnuteers The most incomprehensible thing among the o'irrent events of tho day, is that the Co bau insurrection was not crushed out by euch a force at once. Cu: a is not n large islaud, aud her coast was snrrouuded aud watched by a strong Spanish naval squadron, yet | 02,000 soldiers tailed to put down the rebellion. There wus no luck of foro city and a hull-dog disposition to "hurt somebody" on the wart of tbo Oom ! mauder-in Chief. Eveu Goo Sheri? dan himself, if entrusted by General Grunt with the. coveted power to treat the Citizens of Louisiana as "ban? ditti," could uot havo surpassed Count Valmasedu in that destructive propuu t*ity which some military men seem to uoufouud with guuius for war. Thus, for ex imple, Valtnsseda ordered that every male citizen over fifteen years of age fouud in the country und away from home should be shot, unless be could satisfactorily account for his in ivemeute. fie made war upon women, branding them as felons or slaves, lie ordered tha. every bouse which did not display a white rLg should be burned, aud that all women and ohiidreu touud living aloun on their farms should bo forcibly removed to the uearest cities in possession of tbo Spaniards. This treatment of citi? zens of both sexes aud all ages as "bauditti," might cause the most truculeut of American soldiers to grow pale with ouvy. On subsequent occa? sions, Yulmuscui surpassed him.-..If. When De Rodas, who succeeded Dnloe, and brought 30,000 additional i troops with htm, was compelled by the volunteers in 1370 to vacate his ollice, Yalmasudi wan brought back again. Oue of his first acts was to order that no quarter should bo shown to pri? soners captured from the rebel forco, and that those who surrendered volun? tarily wero to be sentenced to pnr petuul imprisonment It was under his administrations that eight school boys were barbarofrly shot in Havana for au alleged deseSJitioo of the grave of a loyalist. He was finally succeed? ed by Cabullos iu June, 1872. Up to , August of that year 14,000 Cubans { bad been killed iu battle, 43.500 pri? soners, according to the udmissiou ol the Spanish authorities, hud beeu put to death, and $70,000,000 speut, be? sides tho sending of more thun 80.000 I men from Spain to quoll the rebellion. I Such are the practical result* produced by the ferocious military butcher who I bus treated the rebellious Cubaus us I "banditti," though it must be admit? ted that, savage as he is, ho did uot I propose to treat iu that mauuer peace? ful citizens not io arms agaiust the I Government. This mau has boeu again tendered the Captain-General? ship of Cuba, but makes bis acceptance of the post conditional on bin having 20,000 more troops. The stupid bru? tality of auoh a oommauder-iu-cbief is I only liktdv to make matters worse in I Cuba. How long the protracted and j wasteful warfare will coutinue, no one osu foresee. Rut military men do not seem to huve the faculty of recon? struction. That profession has long I bad the destinies of Spuiu aud Cuba in their bauds, and behold tho re? sult*! I In spite of the sweet, sid condition of affairs iu these United States, ihere is a paper iu New Hampshire which j "hopes that King Kalakuua muy reach his home in safety aud be able to rule the more wisely by reason of his visit j to this our beloved country." It is said that they have found io Texas tbe skeleton of u man who was twenty feet high. That man did not lack more than eight or ten feet of be? ing as tall us Sheridan thinks tbut he I in.

A Royal Ohoax.?Tbe stomach baa been well named a "royal organ," ainee it sways and controls tbe entire system, every glaud, tissne and nerve sympathizing with it as tbe servants of a prioce sympathize witb tbeir muster. Each one of thorn is fed aud sustained by it?even tbe brain itself, tbe centre of sensation, is absolutely dependent upou it for susteuanoe. Consequently, when tbe storaaob f nils to perform its nil-important office, tbe subordinate orgaus also falter iu their duty. The reason why Hostetter'n Stomaoh Bit tors have auch woodroosly beneficial effect upon tbe general health, and are such a reliable preventive of disease, is, that they .speedily overcome weak? ness or disorders of the stomach, aud thus insure complete nourishment of tbe entire system and a healthful per? formance of its various funotions. Unlike those stimulunts whose alco? holic principle iu unmodified by judi? cious medication, tbe spirituous basis of these Bitters, which is of the purest description, holds in solution herbal I alteratives and iuvigorants to which a foremost rank has been assigned in materia mediou. But it is not alone I the fact that these sovereign botanic elements enter into the composition of tbe Hitters that constitutes them such a beni.pi tonic and corrective, but also that they are so happily combined that the full effect of each ui exerted upon the disordered or debilitated system, the digestive and secretive organs uro tbe first to experience tbeir beneficent operatiou, which extends, by sympa? thy, to the brain, tbe nerves end tbe circulation. The influence thus ex? erted is fruitful of those great sanitary results which have built up the reputa? tion of this truiv national medicine. I JIG t&H The Birds' Chuistmas Carol ? !

Thursday eveniug, made the following statements: "The introduction of Masonry among the colored men in this country was by the initiating, passing, and raising of thirteen colored men iuto a traveling lodge, attached to General Gage's army, stationed at Boston, Massachusetts, on the 6th of March, 1775. On tbe 29th of September, 1781, Frederick Charles, Duke of Cum hcriaud, Acting Grand Master of tbe Grand Lodge of England, granted a warrant fur tbe constituting of African Lodge, No. 459 Iu 1792, Prince Hall, the Master of the said lodge, insti? tuted Hiram Lodge, in Philadelphia.

Iu 1808, the Alrieau Grand Lodge was formed in Boston, with tbe above-named lodges. Iu 1827, tho Grand Lodge of Pennsylvania was instituted, and iu 1817 the National Grand Lodge was formed.

"Our whole people," said he, "cherish for your subjects the most friendly regard.

These deservedly celebrated and popu? lar medioines have effected a revolu? tion in the beaiiug art, and proved the fallacy, of several maxims which bave for many years obstructed the progress of medical science. The false supposition that "Consumption is incurable," deterred pbysieana from attempting to fiud remedies for that disease, and patients afflicted with it reconciled themselves to death without making an effort to escape from a doom which they supposed to be nna voidablo. It iu cow proved, however, that Consumption can be cured, and that it has been oured in a very great num? ber of cases (some of them apparently desperate ones) by. 8chenok'e Polmo- - uic Syrup alone; nod in other oasee by the same medicine in connection with .CLihamnV-'o Kon ^17--> rn-.: - -j VT._ -? ? ^.V/U . ?
