Ther had scarcely , taken their seats when a young lady with a basket on her arm went along the line and presented eacn or tnem i with a bunch of flowers. one or tne papers this morning stated that Mrs. Black, wife of the leading counsel for the defence, supplied the Anarchists with their morning bouquets. She was quoted as saying in a florist's shop: "I want them for the poor saints in the criminal court The dear martyrs are being sorely abused by tyrants now and I fear something will happen to them; but if anything does happen, there are thousands ready to tear their oppressors to pieces." It was decided that assistant attorney Walker should open the argument. Zeisler, of the defence, to follow: to be succeeded by Ingham for the prosecu tion, Foster and Black for the defence and Orinnel to close for the State, in the order named. This result was not ar rived at without consideration. Walker began by saying that in this republic all men stood equal before the law. and when the perpetrators of Sny crime stood before the bar for trial, the Goddess of Justice was indeed blind. until hi guilt had teen proven. No matter whether he was a Socialist or an I Anarchist, the very law which he had j desired to throttle now stood as his pro- j tector until his guilt was shown: and in ; this case the proof had made the.de-! fendants guilty beyond the shadow of a I doubt. Walker then addressed himself to the jury, to which he paid the usual i conn Uments. He next called their at- ; tention to several definitions of the phraso. "beyond reasonable doubt."

Editou Journal: Mr. Strange in his letter to the Imie.r, which you published in a late issue, says that Wilming- ton suffers because of its lack of influ- ence with the "powers that be."' Now f Wilmington and New Hanover county feels the lack of representation, what must be the suffering of New Berne and Craven county? Wilmington is repre sented in the Congressional delegation and has one of her sons in the presiden tial chair of the State Senate, but poor old Craven has no representation in State or National Legislatures nor in the State administration. She is com- He takes-his present predicament calm pletely hide-bound as far as political , ly, and has the utmost confidence that influence roes. Ever since the Demo- something will turn ud to succor him. cratic partv has been n power in the State she has been nothing but a black lump on the political log inert, useless and something to be kicked and cuffed by the very ones who. because of her hopeless condition, should try to alle viate her troubles, and now that pa tience haa ceased to be a virtuo she is determined to be represented, at least the State legislature, by men who will be heard and felt. And mippose that we are not going at it in the old fashioned Democratic style, which lis not the case however, and the Star and other papers outride the county sail into us, what matter is it as they can't defeat our ticket and all thoir "bosh" will not influence one single vote. And again, pray tell why the Demo crats of Craven county should, to our " ' m- ocratic party of the Stated I don't say , we wU1 nQt but mere)y agk trhy ; should when the Democrats of our ad- ! joining counties who haye representa- ... . .x , . . i i i.i .. r . i T-, lacures have invariably given us the cold shoulder and the Democratic State administration has giyen us a plain un mistakable slap in the face. In addition to this we have had to meekly submit to indignities forced upon us by the Democratic Legislature to humbly see I a portion of our county sliced off and given to another county without any of the county debt going with it. In fact se persistently haye we been snubbed and ignored that we must show our manhood and protect our rights. As to the Democracy of the coalition movement I would like for some of the wonderfully rantankerous Democrats who oprx8e tne Coalition ticket to tell us how President Cleveland, whom we H know to be a Democrat, became mayor of the city of Buffalo' Unless fact Qave bwn TriMy perverted he was elected to that office yy just xw;h a movement as the manly Democrats and Republicans are ; trying to carry in this county, and mind, ye growlers, that thj8 tnoTement doe9 not have a some- what similar termination.

The Coalition ticket is supported by the intelligent white and colored voters of the county, which is evidence enough that it is the correct thing, and that it will be a success there is no doubt. SLiri'KRY Hank. Tilden's Will. New Voltt, Aug. U. The will of Samuel J. Tilden was read at Grey stone this afternoon by lawyer Jamea C. Carter, of this city, in the presence of all the relatives except those in the West. The document is a long one, containing about ten thousand words, and would occupy about five columns nonpareil type in any one of the great dailies. Besides the family, there were present the Hon. John Bigelow, Andrew H. Green, and Mr. Tilden's private secretary, George W. Smith. Col. Samuel J. Tilden, who spoke for the family, said that not a word about the will could be given to the press. The family had decided, he said, that no intimation of the terms of the will should be made public until it was offered for probate, and as the date had not yet been fixed for that, he could not say when it would be given to the press. Hon. John Bigelow gives the follow ing facts about the will : Mr. Bigelow, Andrew H. Green and George W. Smith are named as executors and trustees. All of Mr. Tilden 'a kindred are gener ously provided for in this way: The whole estate is placed in the hands of the executors as trustees. Each heir is to receive an equal share in the line of his or ber consanguinity; that is, nephews and nieces equal amounts and their children certain amounts, but they are to receive only the income de rived from an equal separate specific sum, the principal at their death to be disposed of in a manner which Mr. Bigelow could not state. None of his relatives, he said, except Mrs. Mary B. Pelton, his sister, are given any specific bequest forever. To her he bequeaths the residence No. 3 West Thirty-eighth street, and the sum of 8100,000 to live upon. All of his real estate except this is placed in his executors' hands to be disposed of as they see fit, either by sale, rental or exchange, Grfiystone and the Gramercy Park property falling under the same rule. The executors are first charged with the duty of sett ing apart for his relativeo the sums named for them from which the several incomes are to be derived. This done, it becomes the duty of the executors and the trustees to carry out his wishes regarding certain public beneficiaries. They are charged with the duty, first, of establishing a free library in his native village. New Library; also in Yonkers. and if in the discretion of the trustees they choose to establish a free library in this city, thev may do so, and if not, they are at liberty to use the funds that a free library would cost in the promotion of any charitable or edu cational cause.

At present there is no sign of a compromise Editor Cutting- in Jail. A correspondent of the New York World Who saw Editor Cutting in the Mexican jail at El Paso del Norte on Sunday-says: The Drisoner was found id the own i court of the prison in his shirt sleeves, enjoying the cool evening preparatory , to spending s hot, uncomfortable night j in his cell. The only visible change in i his looks since his incarceration is a slight tinge of gray in his hair. He is ' enjoying good health, and since the ! extra allowance for his support has been ! made he manaeres to live verv fairlv His theory is that diplomatic relations : Mexico will back down. Sooner than go to war it wiU grant him a pardon, he thinks. t Outsiders do not take such a sanguine view of affairs. They say that Cutting 1 is a doomed man. Should the United , States take the final step and declare war, uniting unaonDteaiy win m tne . accomplished by such a course, wiian fl ret man to be put to the bayonet.

That he will be pardoned is generally disbelieved, as the Mexicans have got their backs up. In passing sentence upon Cutting, the Mexican district judge at Paso del Norte used the following language: "It is the decree of this court that the defendant, A. K. Cutting, be condemned to serve the State of Chihuahua, at hard labor, on public works, for the period of one year, and in addition pay the treasury of the State the sum of $600, and. in the event of failure to pay this fine, that the said A. K. Cutting be held to serve out an additional 100 days at hard labor on public works of the State. It is further more decreed that the said A. K. Cut- ting be held responsible to a civil suit i ior uauiagea to cmigaio iueuina, tne party injured by the illegal publication by the defendant, should the said Me dina desire to institute such a suit. In regard to the application of the prose- e 1 1 t"l ntr atlnmar nsbinir that tliia rri ft recommend that the United States con-i sul at this point be withdrawn on ac count of offensive olliciousneas, the court holds that, it is a matter of such importance as to be entirely beyond its scope, and -the application is therefore respectfully referred to the Supreme Court of Chihuahua for action."

A special from Mineola, Texas, says: Friends of Governor Ireland here are jubilant over the endorsement of his policy by the old States and the city is Call of excite ment in favor of the United States taking a decided stand against Mexico. There could be one thousand men raised here for a Mexican war. At a mass meeting Last night resolutions were passed favor ing an immediate war with Mexico. Washington, August 10. It was stated at the war and navy departments today that while the fighting branches of the governmens arc in their custo mary condition of readiness for action, offensive or defensive, the present diffi culties with Mexico are as yet the ex clusive concern of the diplomatic branch, and that no movement of any vessels have yet been ordered with a view to possible warfare. At the State department it is said that there is nothing new which it would be proper to make public at present, but that there is still no reason to doubt an amicable adjustment of the Cutting affair. It is unofficially learned that the cor respondence now in progress is ex pected to bring about definite results of some kind in a few days, and that the direct objects Bought to be accomplished by this government are first, the release of Cutting; and second, the renuncia tion of the claim by Mexico of extra territorial jurisdiction.

Upon this mo tion there was a full and free inter change of opinion, some opposition be ing shown, and it prevailed by the fol lowing vote: yeas Messrs. Humphrey, Mott, Russell, Smith and White 5; nays, Mr. Bledsoe. On motion, the chairman was charged with the preparation of the address, he to be assisted by Judge Russell and Gol. Humphrey.

The manner in which they were brought out may not be considered regular, but it was done by the action of Democrats, and in justice to these gentlemen it appears to us that it is the duty of Democrats to try to elect them. Wo have heard the question asked, "What dillerence does it make if we don't have any representative in the General Assembly V"' We are surprised that any Democrat should a?k such a question. Does any Democrat suppose for one moment that if Clark and Lane had been in the last General Assembly, a large slice Of Craven county would have been taken off jind given to Car teret without carry iDg with it a propor- tionate 8nare of the county debt? This 13 a question that goes right u: your pockets. Does any Democrat believe, ; with these gentlemen to represent them, that the present arrangement of the Judicial districts would have been made? This, too. goes right to your i pockets, for remember that in taking a presented for the county to pay amount ing to over fifty dollars; this for travel ing expenses to get to the Judge, Does any citizen of Craven county be lieve that such representatives as Messrs. dark and Lane would not have made an effort to secure such legislation that would have made the Smithfield road a part of the A. & N.

V.V The failure on the part of the last General Assembly to do this was a heavy blow to tiie pros pects of this entire seetiou, and we are ! bound to believe it was for want of i proper represeutaliou that we did not' get it.

MeCiammy, both stalwart Democrats, to the General Assembly along with three Republicans, and since that time New Hanover has been kept in a Democratic Congressional district and the result is hundreds of thousands of dollars have been secured for the improvement of the inlet to Wil mington, and we have never heard that the election of these gentlemen by Re publican votes compromised or in any way injured the Democratic organiza tion in the State. The counties -; of Northampton and Halifax, though largely Republican, have sent. Demo cratic members to the General Assem bly, and we have never heard any com-; plaint from Democratic papers on ec-; count of it.
