On yesterday morninfe court mot nt tho unusual hour, Judgo George F. Bartlett presiding. Richard Walker, eolorod, charged with burglary in tho night, was arraigned. He plead guilty to larceny from the house, which plea was accepted by tho Stato, and the prisoner was sentenced to twelve months in the penitentiary. Tho case of James Kilgore, charged with the murder of L. F. Coulter, was called for trial, ami both prosocution and defence an nounced ready for trial. THE PRISONER was brought, handcuffed, into tho court room, followed by his wife, a little child about four years old, and a number of rel atives. Ho is a man of about sixty years of age. Ho looks, quite feeble. His hair has evidently grown much whiter since he was committed to jail, in January last. He took a chair by Ids counsel, and rested his head on his hand, looking steadily on tho floor, a position which he maintained during the whole trial. His child was seated in his lap part of tho time. To the indictment, tho prisoner plead NOT GUILTY, and the trial commenced. The defence was represented by Ingram & Crawford, and tho prosecution by Roland Russell, Esq., and Solicitor W. A. Little. A jury was obtained without difficulty. The fol lowing jury was sworn in and tried the case: W. F. Snider, John Mobaffey, J. M. Ford, W. S. Do Wolf, J. H. Patrick, H. W. Vorstillc, Robert Ware, W. D. Afiiiek, J. J. Whittle, Daniel Dozier, George W. Rad cliff and James W. Long. Several members of this jury served on the jury that found Alexander Pryor guilty of voluntary manslaughter, on Monday. The evidence was taken fully—some eight or ten witnesses being examined. It will bo remembered that tho killing took place on Saturday night, January 23d, in the store of C. 11. Newman, on the corner of Front and Bridge streets. Jesse Ryder, Coulter, and one or two other witnesses were in the store talking, when Kilgore came in. The party had been drinking some. Kilgore, on coining in, spoke to the party. He said something to Ryder about going to Eufaula. Ryder said he did not want to go. Kilgore made some short reply. The evidence differs as to whether Coulter or Kilgore spoke first. Kilgore said to Coulter, “May be you don't like it!” Coulter told him to go away. Several remarks passed between them. The evidence as to tho beginning of the difficulty differs very widely. Jesse Ryder swore that Coulter pushed Kilgore away and told him to leave, when the latter drew a knife and plunged it Into Coulter's leftside. Henry Smith swore that Coul ter struck Kilgore a considerable blow in the face, and then tho latter struck at him. This was a strong point in the case, and the counsel dwelt on it at length. All the witnesses agreed that Kilgore cut Coulter immediately after the push or the blow— whichever it may havo been. There was no evidence of a previous difficulty be tween the partios. In his statement the prisoner denied having had any quarrel with Coulter. It was in evidence that Kil gore drew the knife from his pocket with out opening it, and it was the opinion of the witness that it was open while in his pocket. Coulter was about sixty years of age. He was once a policeman in city. At the time of his death he was a butcher and lived in Brownoville, Ala. In ISO'.) he shot a cotton buyer named Higgins, but was never tried for it. Tho prisoner made a living by fishing on the river. The evi dence was very strong against tho pris oner. The cross-examinations by counsel for both sides were dose and severe. At the close of the ovidenco the prisoner made the following STATEMENT. * All that 1 remember is that I was there. Don’t know bow I came there, i was talk ing to Brown. Hoard something about a trip to Eufaula, as stated by him. Do not recollect swung Mr. Coulter at all. Recol lect that someone lilt me in the face and 1 struck them. Don’t know that I had a knifo iq my hand at all. I had a rut In my coat mado by eomu onv in tho skirmish. Don’t know who did it. Don’t know much about it. If there had over been any hard feeling: between me and that man, I never knew it. Had known him a lon# time. Prisoner said somethin# about what Jesse Ityder said to him about #oin# to Eufaula, and concluded. Tho argument was then opened for the State by Roland Russell, Eaq., who made a sound speech. Reese Crawford, Esq., then spoke in behalf of the prisoner, and presented the ease in its best light. He was followed by Hon. Martin J. Crawford for tho defence. He spoke at lon#th, and dwelt upon every point in the testimony. He presented the fact that Coulter struck Kilgore a blow in the face in a very forci ble manner; and urged it as a sufficient cause to arouse a man’s anger and make him do almost anythin#. Tho speech lmd a marked effect upon tho jury and all who heard it. Solicitor W. A. Littlo concluded for the SUite in a very fine speech. He put the evidence in such a way as to make the ease a deliberate, intentional murder. He dwelt upon the Inconsistency and weak ness of the evidence for the defense, and made a most powerful appeal to the* jury in the narao of justice. The speech was complete and strong; it covered all the ground of the ease, and was as good an argument for the prosocution as could have been made. It was regarded as tho best of the many good speeches which our efficient. Solicitor has made, and as good as has been heard in our Court room. Judge Bartlett delivered a long and complete charge to the jury. He clearly defined murder, and manslaughter, and justifiable homicide, and showed the dif ference between them. The charge was delivered in a most impressive manner and was received by the jury with pro found attention. After the Judge concluded his charge, the jury retired to make up their verdict. ARREST OF A WITNESS. As soon as the jury retired, Judge Bart lett ordered tho arrest of Henry Smith, witness for the State. In his ovidenco, Smith stated that John Davis had offered him SIOO to leave before the trial and not appear as a witness. He also asked if Davis had not offered him the same sum to swear that Coulter struck Kilgore, a severe blow. The witness denied this. Davis and Smith were both arrested and brought into Court. Tho Judge first re quired a SSOO bond of Smith and a $250 bond of Davis to appear this morning and answer any charges which might bo preferred against them. He then changed his decision as to Smith, aud examined him as a witness against Davis. Smith testified that Davis asked him if he | wanted to go to Texas. Ho said he did, | and Davis offered him 5100 In money to ! help him go, and told him that he could get more. The witness admitted that tho money was offerod to him to prevent ids appear ance as a witness. Judge Martin Crawford asked him a few questions as to why the money was offer prod to him. No new facts were elicited. Witness denied ever talking on the subject in Georgia. Tho conservation he spoke of was had in Girard. Tho witness told tho Judge he was a stranger In tho city, and could not give bond, but would appear again this morning. The Judge dismissed Smith, but requir ed a $250 bond of Davis, for ids appear i ance. We learn that Davis failed to give | this, nnd was confined In jail. Last night when the Judge announced that he would hold Davis, tho latter said, in an indifferent manner, “X had just os soon sleep in jail to-night as not.” Davis will bo brought up this morning to answer for contempt of court or bribe ry, or any other charge which may be brought against him. Tho court then took a reoofcs until the Jury should bring in a verdict. The Judge retired, and left orders with the Sheriff to bring him word when tho jury came to a verdict. The jury retired about half-past thrive o’clock, and at five o’clock they had ob- j tainod a verdict. The Judge and Solicitor wore sent for. When they arrived, the jury came in. The crowd in tho court room wits very large, and ail Boomed to lx* j very much interested in the ease. The Judge ordered the prisoner to stand up, and the Solicitor read tho following verdict : We, tho jury, find the prisoner guilty of murder, and recommend him to the mercy of the court. H. W. Vekstille, Foreman. Tin* prisoner heard the* verdict without a tremor or change of countenance. He resumed his scat, and again leaned his head on his hand and lookinJ down at the floor, as he had during the trial. Court then adjourned, and the prisoner was carried back to jail, followed by his wife, his little child, and Ids relatives. THE LAW IN SUCH CASES. A number of people wore endeavoring to learn what would be the effect of the recommendation of the jury. We have endeavored to find that out, and submit the law in tho case. Section 4323 of the Revised Code lays down tin' law in the following words: “The punishment for murder shall be death, but may be confinement in the Pen itentiary for life in lie* following cases: By sentence of the presiding Judge, if the conviction is founded solely on circum stantial evidence, or it' the jury trying the traverse shall so recommend. In the for mer case it is discretionary with the Judge in the latter it is not.” The Legislature in 1875 published tho following as explanatory of the section above quoted: “Section 1. Bo it enacted by the General Assembly, that whenever a jury, in a cap ital case of homicide, shall find a verdict of Guilty, with a recommendation of mer cy instead of a recommendation of impris onment for life, in cases where by law the jury may make surfi recommendation, such verdict shall be held to mean impris onment for life. If, in any capital case of homicide, the jury shall make any recom mendation where not authorized by law to make a recommendation of imprisonment for lib*, the verdict shall be construed as if made without any recommendation.” Tims it will be seen that the Judge can not commute tho sentence to imprison ment for life, notwithstanding the recom mendation, for the case was not one found ed on circumstantial evidence. The Judge will be forced to sentence him to be hung. The various Supremo Court decisions on this quarter, all say that tin* jury aro not authorized to recommend, except when the conviction is on circumstantial evi dence, and the Judge cannot heed the rec ommendation otherwise. NOTE. We are reliably informed that the jury supposed that recommendation to mercy would save the prisoner’s life and sqnd himlto the penitentiary for life. The jury is thought to have been unani mous in their desire to recommend the prisoner to mercy, and they all thought such an act would save his life. It is rumored that there will be an at tempt to “poll” the jury this morning, if it is not too lab*. If this is not done, anew trial may be granted. At the Vlrictnlu Ml ore.

Entirely rewritten by the ablest writers on every subject. Printed from new type, and illus trated with Several Thousand Engraving* and Maps. The work originally published under the title of The Nkw American Cxclopjkdia was com pleted in IHC3, since which time the wide circula tion which it has attained in all ]*arti of the United States, and the signal developments which have taken place in every branch <>f science, lit erature and art, have induced the editors and publishers to submit it to an exact and thorough revision, and to issue anew edition entitled The American Cyclop.kdia. Within the last ten years the progress of dis covery in every department of knowledge has made anew work of reference an imperative want. The movement of political affairs lias kept pace with the discoveries of science, and their lruitful application to the industrial and useful arts and tiie convenience aud refinement of social life. Great wars and consequent revolutions have oc curred, involving national changes of peculiar moment. The civil war of our own country, which was at its height when the last volume ol tiie old work appeared. has happily been ended, aud anew course of commercial aud industrial activity has been commenced. Large accessions to our geographical knowl edge have been made by the indefatigable ex plorers of Africa. The great political revolutions of the last de cade, with the natural result of the lapse of time, have brought into public view a multitude of new men, whose names are in every one’s mouth, and of whose lives every one is curious fco know the particulars. Great battles have been fought and important sieges maintained, ol which the de tails are as yet preserved only in the newspapers or in the transient publications of the day, but which ought now to take their place in perma nent aud authentic history. Iu preparing the present edition for the press, it has accordingly been the aim oi the editors to bring down the information to the latest possi ble dates, aud to furnish u accurate account of the most recent discoveries in science, of every fresh production in literature, and of the newest inventions iu the practical arts, as well as to give a succinct and original record of the progress of political and historical events. The work has been begun alter long and care ful preliminary labor, aud with the most ample resources for carrying it on to a successful term ination. None of the originul Btereotypo plates have been used, but every page has been printed on new type, forming in fact anew Cyclopaedia, with the same plan and compass as its predecessor, but with a far greater pecuniary expenditure, aud with such improvements iu its composition as have been suggested by longer experience aud enlarged knowledge. The illustrations which aro introduced for the first tune in tic present edition have been add! and not for the sake of pictnvial effect, but to give greater lucidity and force to the explanations in the text. Tin y embra *-all branches of science aild of natural hist ry, ami depict the most lam-ms aud reuiarkabh- matures of scenery, architecture and art. as w* 11 us the various pro cesses of mechanics and manufactures. Although intended for instruction rather than i mbelishment, no pains have been spared to in sure their artistic excellence; the cost of their execution is enormous, ami it is believed they will find a welcome reception as an admirable feature of the I’yelopcmlu, and worthy of its high character. This work is sold to Subscribers only, payable on delivery of each volume. It will be completed iu six teen large octavo volumes, each containing alK>ut 800 pages, fully illustrated with several thousand Wood Engravings, and with numerous colored Lithographic Map*.
