He urged upon them the necessity of attend- ing to education, and trusted all their energies would be bent in that direction. He had no de! @ to do anything that would create or Hues bitterness of feeling between the joyai and disloyal. He would rather that all ine wounds that bad been made were closed up: but he would say to those before him that they were not called upon to shew a willi ness to forgive the past by elevating their old persecutors to office. The willingnese to for- g:ve cam beshown in other Ways than by again giving them the power to ruie over you. In conclusion, Sexator Morton said the great event they were celebrating must be a great eventin their] ves, aud they must from it learn to love liberty as a principle, and as an inheritance due to all, without disunction of race or color. | Applause | ©.

The indictment was found the 4th February, 1987, id there is no reason why the District Attorney should not have been ready immediately after the indictment.

The Court.—How will four weeks from to-day do? Lapprehend we will hardly get «hrough before that time. My.

The mailarious iafiu- ence might bave produced jaundice, or hem- but never an abrasion, as developed by the postmortem examination. From the evidence given, and the examination made by mycelf, the hemorrhage might have been the exciting cause ef the disease remotely.
