REDLAPSING INTO BA ARISM. A Coroner's Jury of Negroes Finds & Verdict 6t Doath from Incantation. An outrageous case of supersti.. tion is creating great excitement on Coosaw Island, and it is feared bloodshed may result before the interested neighbors are convinced that they are the victims of their own blind faith in the supernatural. It seems that a m n named Snipe died a short timo' ago of consumption,. and on his death-bed remarked that if he died his death would be owing to the influence of one Dago Hagood, who, som time last January, came up behind him, and putting one hand on each shoulder, asked, "Who is it ?" a common custom among all classes. The circumstance was for gotten by both, and but for the death of Snipe. would prob ably never have been recalled had not Snipe before his death professed to have had a vision revealing to him that Hagood's playfulness had been the causo of his sickness. The friends of Snipe, believing that his dying declaration must be true, sent to Dr. Johnson to hold an inquest, but the Doctor, after hear. ing the particulars, declined to do so. Snipe's father then threatened that if the law would not punish Hagood, he himself, would shoot him on sight. The neighbors again came to Beaufort for a coro nor, and after consultation, Mr. Carleton concluded, for the sake of preserving the peace, he had bettor go ; and went and held an inquest, but no further testimony could be elicited, and when the jury retired to deliberate he told them that no ver dict against Hagood could be ron, dered, as there was nothing to impli cato him in the death of Snipe. The jury, all colored, after long delibera tion, refused to render any other verdict than that of mudor against Hagood, and so the case stands at present. Since the above was written we have seen a copy of the verdict of the jury, which is worth preserving and is as follows : "That Adam Snipe came to his death at Coosaw Island, in Beaufort county, on the 11th day of April, 1877, and that his death was caused through one Dago Hagood, he having some time provi ously put his hands around do.' coased's neck, producing;a cough and poisining said Adam Snipe, thereby wilfully, unlawfully and feloniously causing the death of the said Adam Snipe, contrary to thelpeace and dig nity of said State." Mr. Carleton very properly re.. fused to commit Hagood on such an absurd charge.--Beaufore Tribune, 4th inst. The Port Royal Advertiser says that the jury brought in the same verdict three times, and that Ha good is now in jail. The Bastinado. I1omn the London Time.. "T. H." writes : "I am boiling over with indignation while reading the account of the fearful bastinad ing of the unfortunate Ali Nasmi, narrated in your Poera correspond once. A few days ago I was reading an account of this punishment in flicted many y'ears since on an unfor tunate Englishman. As many of your readers may not be fully aware of the horrible nature of this torture, I give the account in the victim's own words. I am led to ask how it is possible that in our day such barbarous cru.. elty can be perpetrated for so small an offence as the poor student was guilty of, and which he so magnani.. mously owned ? The writer says : 'The victim was thrown flat on his face and his legs bent up, so that the soles of the feet were horizontal; the feet were-held in this position by a long staff and chain. At first the blows wore moderately dealt, thern they were laid on more ronghly, and every stroke like the application of a red-hot p)oker. At first the pain was excruciating, b~ut the feelings in time became nmb, and it was like beating a bag of wool. It was six weeks bofore ho could wvalk even with crutches, and for rnore than three years his feet and ankles were very much swelled, and though twenty years had elapsed when he published thus account, he still suf fered. He mentions instances of the bastinado having been applied for three days successively, and if the person survived, the feet wore ren.. dered useless for life ; but in goner al, ho observes, when between 500 and 600 strokes were inflicted death was the ceqnanco. Jaansa' Fans. The manufacture of fans is an iin portant branch of industry in Jaipany and no fewer than 8,000,000 fans,, valued at $90,000, were, according to Mr. Consul Annolsoy's commer cial report on Hiogo and Osaka, lately issud, exported from those ports in 1875. Osaka is the princ. pal city for the manufacture of the "ogi" or folding fans, which are those almost exclusive!y .exported, all descriptions of the bamboo lkind being made there, the figures, writ ing, &c., being executed in Kiyoto. The principle of division of labor, as explained in an extract from the, Ifiogo Neton, quoted by Consul Annesley, is carried out a long way in this branch of industry. The bamboo ribs of the fans are made by private people in their own houses, and combinations of the various notches out in the lower part is lef6 to one of the finishing workmen, who form the various patterns of the handles according to plans pro pared by the designer. In like manner the designer gives out to the engravers the patterns that he thinks will bo saleable, and when the blocks have boon cut, decides what colors are to be used for each part of the design, and what differ ent sheets are to be used for the opposite sides of each fan. When these sheets with the gets of bamboo slips which are to form the ribs have been handed over to the workman, he, in the first instance, folds theni so that they will retain the crease. This is done by putting thom be tween two pieces of heavily oiled paper, which are properly creased. The fans are then folded up too gether and placed under pressure. When sufficient time has elapsed the shoots are taken out and the moulds used again, the released sheets being packed up for at least. twenty-four hours in their folds. The ribs, which are temporarily arranged in order on a wire, aro then taken and set into their places on one of the sheets after it has been spread out on a block and parted. A dash of paste then gives the woodwork adhesive powers, and that part of the process is finished by affixing the remaining piece of paper. The fan is folded up and opened three or four times before the folds got into proper shape, and by the time it is put by to dry it has received an amount of handling Japanese paper alone would endure. When the insideu are dry the rivet ing of the pieces together (including the outer covering) is rapidly done, and a dash of varnish quickly &nishes the fan. The highest priced fan that was over used in the. days of seolusion from the outer world was not more than five yon, Since foreigners have boon in Japan, however, some fow have boon made to order as dear as $10 and $15 each. The general prices of ordi nary fans range from fifty son per hundred to fifteen yen per hundred, though an extraordinarily costly Ian is turned out at fifty yen per hun.. dred. Th3 number of fans orderedl for the Philadelphia Ex~hibition alone amounted to over 800,000, at a cost of about $50,000. The sale f fans in olden times seldom exs eeeded 10,000 a year for the wh.ole country. Fnurr.-The earlier in the day fruits are eaten the bettor.
