Emmet "replied that it ‘was not the fault or the
‘accused that ' the district attorney had put so
Lrnany parties together in one indictment, iii- _
,v.olving transactiotis that had no connexion
with each other, that they did not wish to take
up the time of the court unnecessarily, nor
had they done so. The court interposed, and
said that nothing had fallen frorri them to
warrant the remarks made ; but the time of
the counsel must be restrained. Mr. Emmet
replied,follo_wed by Mr.Buv.ler, when the ‘court
again said they had. imputed no censure on
the counsel. Mr. Ogden then took tip the
subject, and to a question as to what litnits
‘ivould be prescribed by the court the judge re-
plied they were not to be catecliised on the
subject—-arid the examination was tlicn resu-
rired. At the close of the business of the day
idtejurlge said no more witnr-sses would be ex-
aniined ; wlicti one ofthe jurors pressed on
'_tl‘ic attention of the court the severe hardship
it was for himself and fellow jurors to be shut
-‘up for so great a length of time front their
business and families, &'. offered to give bonds
for $10,000 that he would speak to no person
an the subject ofthe trial till ;V1ouday. The
-judge conierred with his associates,arid slated
—‘tli'.it the court were aware of the liardsliip of
V the case, but it was absolutely iiece.ssai'v to the
end of justice, that they should not separate
till the trial was cotiipleted. ‘

COLD PLAGUE.
It appears by the Louisiana Advertiser, of
the 96th tilt. tliata nialiguaut and mortal dis-
ease called by the above name, has recently
appcurerl. (though not for the first tiriie, in the
City of New Orleans. In the Cold Plague,
says the paper, the brain, lungs. liver, spleen,
Soc. seem to be affected. They receive too
uincli blood, and are too weak in rheir proper
action to carry it olfby the regular circulation.
Tliey become in a state ‘of (what physicians
call) congestion. Their proper operations be-
_ooriie clogged or impeded. ll hen this forui
ofthe disease is very severe, the most distress-
ing syriiptoiiis are produced. The pulse is
low and weak, the mind torp.d or (Ir-lirious ;
the most exctticiatiiig agoiiies are suffered.-
‘The blood, which is the vehicle that diffuses
heat. tlirougliout the body, circulatiiig within-
sufiiciciit force, is not rzarried in due quantity
to the surface and extremities of the body...
Those. parts in cotiseqitetice become torpid 8:.
cold. The matter- of j)el'Sl)i:-I‘{l0ll passes off
_in a state of preteriiatuial fiuroity ; and its
rapid evaporation olten produces a coldness
in the parts innch greater than that ofthe at-
,nio:<_t:-liere. If these sytiiptotiis are not st,-on
yrzliered by proper treatuierit, the disease
.quickly proves fatal, or so uiucli injury is sus-
jairied as to ultimately cause death.

TUESDAY. OCTOBER 3, 1896.
The British Order’ in Council, which is al-
lrided to on the preceding" page, closing the
West India ports against our ‘shipping after
the first ofDecetnber next, and other British
possessions at a later date,will give‘ our admin.
istration an opportunity of exercising their
talents and ingenuity in avertinglthe evil con-
sequences of this regulation, from our ‘enter-
prisingjmerchants. The British gov’t. are al-
ways adopting new regulations for their terri-
torial possessions, which in the end seem to
have no other effect than to legislate them-
selves out ofthe very matter which they wish
to preserve. Thus it has been in a particular
manner with regard to their VV. I. possessions.
In the space of6 or 8 years they have twice or
thrice altered tlieterms ofadrnission of foreign
vessels into their ports, but in every instance it
has operated to their own disadvantage, and
to the advantage ofthe. Americans. In the
present case it can have no other effect than
to enliance the price of provisions, oflabour,
&'.c. in their colotiics, and reduce in the same
proportion the price oftheir sugars, and other
productions, and shut them out from their liest
market, for they certainly cannot expect that
their vessels will be admitted into American
ports whilst otirs are shut out from theirs, and
so long as we can raise within our own bor.
ders every article of their climate.
.l1r. Gallatin, it is said, is using-his utmost
endeavours to effect a coniproniise by which
the order shall be annulled before it goes into
operation.
An application liavirig been made for an
injunction against the Fraiikliri Batik of New
Jersey, the Directors have resolved to suspend
the further rcderiiptioii of their bills for the
present.
The Jersey Bank advertises that the first
instalment ol'20 per cent on their bills will be
paid after the lSll’l inst.
- It is a disgraceful fact for Philadelphia, if
it is true, as one of their papers states, that on
Sunday noon, lOtli tilt. one ofthe volunteer
companies of that city marched through their
principal streets at the sound qfdrum andfifl,
and then euib.-irked in the steam boat for Bul-
tiniore to celebrate the British defeat of 1814.
The Rev. Mr. Cornelius, of Salem, Mass.
has been appointed Secretary ofthe American

that he ou,-_:,lit to accept.
The Anniversary ofthe Theological Semi-
nary at Atidover was held on the 27th ult.-—
The number of students who completed their
studies at that tiriie and took part in the exer-

The receipts ofthe American Tract Soci-
ety since the first of May have been 33,567,
and the number oftracts printed during‘ the
satire time is exactly-800,000. The power of
3 presses is constantly employed in printing
tracts. Tlieweckly expense of paper and
printing is about 5600, and there is now in
the Treasury only 200 dollars.

The different gentlemen frotn whozn ad-

cept one, opportunity was af°forded by the pre-

and prospects of our country call upon every
eliristian and patriot to aid die cause 0fBible
Societies.
Rev. Messrs. Smith, Ellis, Hewit, Hooker,
Statisbury and Lockwood, and Messrs. Wa-
terinau and Sinitli, severally addresssed the
ineeting.
Some of the causes of low esteem of the
Bible, by many who have it 5 the morally dis-
eased state ot Fairfield County, asiudicated
by its want of interest in this Society and its
object ;and this in turn indicated hy.ilie mea-
gre report on the Society’s treasury, and by
the smallness of the assembly convened on
this as well as former anniversaries of this so-
ciety ;——the smallness of the sums raised and
of the operations conducted by this society,
when computed with other like socir-ties in
less wealthy sections of cotintry ;——the small
proportion of towns 8Lpai'isliesin this County,
as appeared frotii the treasuier’s book, (only
ten out of twenty-four) from which iiirlividual
subscriptions or cotitributioiis have been re-
ceived ;—the discouraging and critiiiiial neg-
lect of this society and its object by inatry
rninisters of different denominations in this
coiiuty ;——the disappointment of the parent
society in its expectations frotii this auxiliary;
——the inactivity and inefficiency of the exec-
utive officers of this society as a body ;—and
sortie other kindred topics,were discussed with
all dtie decorum, tliorign with somewhat of
plainiiess and euipliasis. Remarks were also
made on the wants and future character and
prospects of our country; on the excellency
and value of the scriptures; on the duty of the
inhabitants of this county in relation to the
bible cause; on the means of increase to this
society; on the duty of always committing
this object to God, by prayer, at these aimi-
versaries ;and on the iriiportaiice of a revival
of religion as the grand remedy for this state
ol'apatliy.on this subject in this county.
On motion of Rev. Mr. Hooker, seconded
by Rev. Mr. Stnith, '
Resolved: That the nature of our object
audtlie instructions of the scriptures demand
it ofus, that, in addition to reading a poriioi‘-.
