Rarry Broadus, George Hart, Washington Holmes, Robe ilerist, Snowden Webb, .ewis Lawson, Heary Rankins, and Alfred Webb, colored men, charged with molesting | and disturbing the congregation of the First Colored Baptist Church, corner of 6th and G | Streets southwest. This is a continuation of | the same old feud growing, as alleged, out of | a division which originated some years azo | smong the members. The former pastor, | Rev. Mr. Lee, it is represented, was the re- | clplent of several varrels of cabbages, pota- | toes, &c., which were designed to be used in relieving the immediate wants of the poor of the church, and instead of making such ue | of them, it is all by some of the church | members who didn’t like him that he appro- priated them to bis own uses. They. all | Pieaded not guilty. Mr. Riddte appeared for | defense. There were twelve witnesses, all culored members of the church, and all be- longing to the clique which seceded from the ebureb, both sides to the coutroversy elaim- ing to be the rightful occupauts of the church. The pastor was requested to resign, and the seceders again returned to the fold, but still the old troubles occasiovally crop out. Mr. Riddle gave his views of the his- tory of the troubles, and Mr. Taggart re- marked that he relied on his wituesses to make out the case. Kev. Mr. Evans offered to givea full and detailed history of the troubles, which he Was well acquainted with. The Court ruled out the history, with the exception of that of the disorder on the night of the 26th of September, now on trial. Mr. Evans testified that he officiated, and these parties, with others, came in and broke up the meeting; using threats, and forced themselves into the altar, and preven! him from dismissing the congregation in order, cHURCH without doxok or jection. He identi- fied Broadus, Hunt and Holmes as of the party. On cross-examination, Mr. Evans said be read @ notice, published in THs Stak, that the pastor, Mr. Lee, had tendered bis resignation and the association had refused to accept it. This was about the close of the services, and the lie was given from all parts of the houxe—Mr. Broadus calling wit- bess @ liar. Rev. Mr. Lee testified to Broadus calling Mr. Evans a liar when the latter read the notice. Hart did the same; Holmes asked Evans to give lnim (H.) the Paper [During the cross-exarination Mr. Riddle spoke of Rey. Mr. Evans commanicating with the Witness. Mr. E. said he had not sald a word. Mr. Riddle—But he (E.) shook bis head as if there was something init when there was botbing} Mr. Lee further testified that Holmes ‘asked for the paper in an audible voice. Richard Johnson testified that he saw all the parties charged present; that Broadus called Evans a liar; Hart told Evans not to come there any more; Holmes got up on the platform and wouldn’t get down on witness telling him, but walked up and down the aisie and came back.

Each = is covered with a piec® of panel boant made sufficiently large to well cover over the top, and in this cover two holes are cut to al- low the handles of the brusi and tool to pro- jcet; through the handles of the brash and tool a bole is bored, and through the hole is passed an iron skewer, each eud of which rests on the edges of the keeper, holding tie brushes in suspension within the keeper; and inmy keeperI put sufficient linseed oil to cover the hairs of the brashes up to the bind- ing and nohigher. Such is the plan I alopt for keeping my varnish brushes moist and in good working order. Now, sacar you desire to know why I prefer linseed oil to varnish, or to oil and turpentine, or to any other liquid, for the ep aay reservation of my brushes. e answer is this: First, I prefer it to var- nish, because my brushes are not constantly in use, but sometimes hi to stand idle for over @ week, perhaps longer, and varnish left standing forso long a period, in a vessel that not perfectly air-tight, would be liable to skin over, so that. when’ I wanted to use my brushes I should have to scrape and clean them, andI should not be able tode this so effectually as to be absolutely certain that no portion of the skin was left behind. S~ cond, I prefer it to a mixture of oil and turps, becanse turps is of so searching and drying a pature that instead of keeping my brushes nice and soft, I should expect it to draw all the moisture out and leaye them harsh and brittle; moreover, you cannot wash turps oat ofa brush. with off, although yon can wash oll out with turps; consequently, I should not know what to do to get my brush free my bse go before using it aad, if 4 used it afver it had been saturated with such a compound without clearsing it, 1 should expect to see my panels, o- rather the varnish on them, run streaky or cloudy, for the turps would certainly work out and produce that offect. It must not be supposed, however, that in keeping my brush inoil it is absolately so Kept, because the varnish in which it is used is, in reality, the best thing to keep it in, and, if T used it ee nGy one to prevent the varnish in my keeper from skinning, I should certainly keep it in that; nothing, of course, could the brueh in working order be: ter than the varnish itself, ifit were in anything like constant use. As @ sort of compromise, therefore, when I finish a job, I take my brush out of the varnish pot, tull as it is, aud tion in my keeper. acopting this plan, I consider that the surrounding oil in the keeper bane hold the varnish in the brush, itin good working order. This plan also Vents the brush absorbing the oll to textent, while it benefits from qualities, being kept soft and pliant, ww igh within it almost in the same cond'tion as when actually be borne in mind, however, that although oil 80 objectionable as ee, 1 is highly desirable that no forei Taatter of any Kin’ in brash when in use. ‘oll were to coze out of it in small leles Raped use, I ee to see — nN ning, blotching or some other | objectionable form, te is, , ORBAN~ itting, ru: tal before the brush—when in ofl in the peanaee domino soteene iteat on the w cleanse it pre- aay SAMUEL SoAKY PUBLIC, ‘ctl7-tt Orvice—Stax BUILDINe. .
