Cop) right, 1K*<3. , Was it Suggested? Jean Lou par d waa unquestionably the most villainous rascal the Haut-Selne court of assi- xet ever bad a chance of branding with infamy. The wretch had actually had the bad taste to chopgan unfortunate old man upintothlrty-slx pieces merely for the sake of getting thirty-six francs out of bis pockets. So, at all events, thought M. de* Bcdlettes, the judge d???instruc- tion, who for the lost ten years had been curs ing fate for compelling him to vegetate in a little provincial town. He had long been lying in wait for some great murder case or other, which should help him to notoriety and a place in Paris. In the vicious lace and shock haired head of Jean Louperd, M. des Belettes saw bis opportunity. It was, therefore, with much secret delight that he noticod the Phare de l???Avenir unconsciously helping him by pub lisbmgone sensational article alter another about ???The Billoir ol the ilaut-Seme/' as it dubbed the murderer. It wss not an easy matter to wring a confes sion from Jean Loupard. The evidence against him was all circumstantial, and the prisoner's rough skin covered a wonderful amount of smartness. For * good month M. des Belettes has wasted all his eloquence. Every afternoon, though it was in the middle of the dog days, he had hod the prisoner brought into his aus tere-looking office to be examined. One day Loupard greeted him by saying: "Excuse mo, iudge, but would you have the kind* ness to choose another time of* the day for our confabs? I generally indulge in a snooze in the afternoon, and when I???m sleepy I can't appreciate all the charm of your conversation.??? TheJudgo only frown ed and went on with his examination as if he had not beard the remark. His devotion to duty was the more praisworthy from the fact ly from the heat. M. des Belettes was beginning to wonder whether, after all, it might not be aa well to accede to the ruffian???s and change the hour of the doily interview when well nigh irresistible drousincss came over him. Noth ing but a stern senso of duty prevented him from flopping on to tho taole and going to sleep. He struggled bravely against tho im pulse, especially as ho fancied that he saw a mocking twinkle in tho eyes of the prisoner. But tho more he struggled tho less _ himself able to overcome slumber, and do vhot be would, ho could not resist the influ ence of those eyi ???Nonsense,??? he muttured. "This will novor do. A judge dMustruetion must not give way like this. It would never do in my position. It would?????? Would never do,??? onco more muttered M. des Bellcttes, rubbing his eyes, end finishing n thought which he had apparently been silently meditating. ???Are you bettor now???? oxclaiincd Lou iard. ???Better?

The jury was rising to leave to consider its verdict and profound silence reigned in the court, when a voice ex claimed: ???I ask permission to make a state ment.??? The voice wss that of M. des Belettes, the judge d???instructiou. Having had pormis.tion to snetk, ho proceeded to mako oue of tho most bewildering .and monstrous statements ever listened to in a court of justice, lie ssid: ???Jean Lotipard is innocent, i have had proofis, lenitive proofs of it, aud it was only after per secuting the prisouer for a whole mouth lu the coolDt manner that I, M. des Bolcttcs, wruug from bis lips the confession of an imaginary crime.??? ???Why did I do this,??? ho continued. ???For the basest, tho most iufamous ot reasons.

I Implore you, gentlemen, to spare yourselves life anguish you will feci some day if you do the prisoner the irreparable wrong of not acquit ting him.??? M. des Belettes quietly sat down, and turning to his neighbor said, iu the most natural way in tho worldt ???What on earth are the jurymen waiting for? Its quite ten ininuDs since the nrcsidout summed up, and they haven???t left the court yet.??? MMie amazement of tho court grew more in tense than ever when the prisoner rose,and, in a ch ar voice, said: ???Gentlemen of tne jury, you hove now had a proof of what my houor- the remarkable speech you have iust hoard, suggested it to him six weeks ago in the middle of an examination 1 was undergoing. When I was a free man like the rest of you I was in tha habit of reading the |iapera. One day my eye lighted on the account of au experiment made in a Far is liocnital Ly one of the princes of science. 1 resolved to rej'Cat the experiment. I tried to throw this worthy magistrate into a mag- n?? tic sleep, and succeeded without an effort. When 1 saw him drop off, by sheer force of will, 1 suggested to him that on the day my case wss tried be should get up, ask to be heard, and proclaim mo innocent, explain ing that he hsd extorted a false confession from me in the hope of being rewarded for his seal by promotion.

And now, gentlemen of tha jury, deny tbc suggestion theory if you dare.??? Tha jury cast an axious look at tha presi dent, who at last stammered out a faw words apparently ordering them to withdraw. A buz* and a roar of excitement filled tha court as they left to consider their verdict. An hoar passed. Two hours. Three. Five I And still the jury did not return. When six hours had passed the president ordered the door of the council chamber to be broken open. A won derful sight awaited him when he entered.

A Southern Circuit Proposed???Races for the Macon Fair, At the coming stato fair in Macon a fine aeries of running and trotting races will be had. About $7,000 in purses have been offer ed, and the entries show that every one of the events will be well contested. Some ??f the famous stables of the country will be represented. If tho races at Macon are a success it is thought that a project talked of lor some time past will take definite shat nnd be carried out. The racing season in tl north and west closes about the time the southern races and.tbe big agricultural fairs are coming on. Tho formation of a circuit of eight or ten southern cities would bring some of tbe best stables to the south overy winter ond give a lively race week to each of the cities in the enterprise. Savanna^ Charleston, New Orleans, and Mobile havo races every winter and Augusta has them often hut the formation of a regular circuit which would interest such cities as Wilmington, Charlotte, Columbia, At lanta, Macon, Columbus, Montgomery ond Helma and fo? which a regular programme could bo arranged would bring better horses nnd many more of them than now come south. The project is very favorably considered by the XORTHEB* HORSE HEX. They nro not only anxious for the bonefits of the raees themselves, but many of them are anxious to winter their horses in the milder climate of the south, and will do so if they a chance to mako expenses. Letters from several nromincnt turfmen have been receivec by gentlemen in this city, setting forth tho ad vantages of a large nnd well regulated southern racing circuit. There has also been some cor- t the subiect between are: > taking and the races for the coming fall and winter be expected only in tne southern cities established jockey clubs, ond the few others which, like Macon, ore to havo great agricultural fairs. If at these places tho meetings arc interesting and successful, there is no doubt that prepa rations will be' nt onco mauo foi the establishment of tho new southern cir cuit by tho opening of the fall season of 1835. It is said that the money for tho construction of n track and tho material for a well regu lated jeekey club could be easily obtained ir Atlanta if the enterprise wore undertaken by tho proper auspices. Tho next two months will develop what there is in tho proposed southern circuit.
