8tuok on hi way home witnessed a phenomenon, which he describes aa follow in the Prea "On Saturday afternoon last, about half. past tour o'olock, a we were driving leis urely along the Carlisle road, near the old Nailor property, about three mile from York, on our return home from a shouting excursion in the upper end of the county, we aw a peculiar object desoend from the sky, the nature of which we cannot explain. It emerged from a heavy bank of dark eumuliisclouds, and looked very much like large bird, with wide spread rather like an inverted parachute. Before it reached the earth it exploded and emitted a heavy volume of dense black smoke and then disappeared as vapory substances gen- it i wiial visitor, of moteorio origin, projected from some oelestial asteroid, revolving somewhere within the limits of our own solar system. The day was an unusually warm one, and the sky, at the time, Was filled with bsavy, pro ten tons clouds, indicating the coming of a thunder storm, but an hour later the clouds pa-ssed away and the sky again became clear.

We mot a gentleman on the road who also witnessed this phenomenon, and we ask him what it was. He said he did not know, and appeared to be as much preplexed as we were, and ao we passed on our way home." Th Eissnhart Bobbery. Jacob Keener, Edward McConkey, Samuel Culbertson and Jesse Byerts, the young men arrested for committing the robbery at Eisenhart's office, had a hearing before Justice Platte yesterday. There being no evidence against Keener and MoConkey they were discharged. Both Culbertson and Byerts confessed having committed the theft and were committed to jail on the charge of robbery.

The boys, who are 17 or 18 years old, made a clean breast of It, and said they gained an entrance into the office by opening the lock with a piece of wire between eleven and twelve o'olock Friday night, and were not long in getting the money, whioh" amounted to 133.33. They then left on the oars for Banbury, where they fell in with several tramps, for whom they bought new suits of clothes. They also purchased two revolvers and large knives for themselves. By this time thtir ill-gotten gains had dwinbled down to elghty-eeven cent. They then started for Baltimore by stealing ride on freight trains.

Offloer Hedriok hearing that they were seen on a sooth bound train, and being confident that they were guilty, telegraphed to Officer Levis Bopp at Glen Rook, who arrested and had them locked up, when Officer Hedriok went down and brought them to York. Officer Hedriok deterves commendation for his energy and promptness in making the arrests.

Upon the oonolnsion of the Attorney Ge oral argument, Mf. Wilson, on behalf of the defense, presented a number oi' prayew to the court. The conrt then dismissed the jurors until to-uorrow morning. As the jurors were preparing to leave the rooms, Jmige Wylie said: "several members of this jury have come to me with information tnat tnev have been approached with propositions most manifestly of a cor rupt kind. The first intimation I had of this kind was several weeks ago Several more" (Iiterrnpting himself).

"I cannot full tueiu intimations. Iney are square aud direct informations civen to me nri- vately for the purpose or a-kiug me what they, the jurors, should do. My advise was to say nothing about it. Tbe court did not want to interrupt the progress of the argnment of the case by any Bucb aide question as this. But 1 advised tbem to be careful.

This thinz nas grown," (becoming mors and more indignant as be proceeded), "and within the last twenty-four hours it seems that these wolves which have been around this jury-have grown fiercer aiid more determined. I felt so much indignation that I was almost ready to advise the jurymen to shqoc the man on the spot. That is the way I felt about it, buf I gave no opinion. Bat villiacy of this kind, scoundrelism of this decree, deserves no mercy. I do not say in what interest these suggestions have been made.

I do not want to convey any information on that subject, but I want to advise this jury to repel with soorn and indignation auy base attempt of this char, scter on their virtue and integrity The insult is of the last intensity, and I do hope that when we get through this trial fairly, you may have information enongh to enabl the conrt to lay its bands on men of this kind on these men who have approached you in this way. I have called your attention to this subject with anoth view to give a warning to men of tfhtp kind ot what they are about and that the officers of the law will do their duty. If it is possible to ferrret out these scoundrels, it shall be done. Give them no quarter. Bpnrn then with the end of your toes.

No baer vermin infest tbe earth than men en gaged in this kind of business, and tbe insul to you is that they suppose that you are just as base, jus', as low as they are themselves. No man should allow a whisper of this kind to be made to him without spnrning it with the utmost scorn and contempt, if he goes no further.

Having said this much collaterally at thia point i can now take a recess." The ti arges to be Investiaated. Judge Wy lie's remarks created a profound sensation, and the foreman of the jury, William Dickson, who is probably one of the jurois approached, said that after the disposition of tbis case he would lay the whole matter before his honor. Then Mr. Henklc, counsel for Kimer and Yaile, roso, and on behalf of himself and his clienU demanded au investigation of the charge that had been made. The court "We will see about that.

We will probably have it." Mr. McSweeney "We, too, want an investigation." Mr. Wilson, emphatically "We want it all around.1' The recess was then tiken. After the recess Mr. Chandler proceeded to read his prayers.

Toreman Dickson Interviewed La Sum of Money Offered ths Juror. Wb. Dickson, foreman of the jury, was seen by a rejiorser after th jury had been excused. He said that it was manifestly impossible for him te say anything about the matter at present. The reporter said bs appreciated his position fully, anl did not expect to get the names or the details of the transactions, but would like to know the extent of the affair.

Dioksou said that all he oould sav about the matter was that in August he was approached, and on learning that some of bis brether jurors had also been approached with baibe-j, he in farmed Judge Wyue of the occurrence, and told the jurors that if any more attempts were made to corrupt them to let him know of it. In answer as to how much was offered by the would be bribers, Dickson said it would not be proper to state that, but the offers were huge in amount The Weather tr To-day. By Telegraph to the Dailt.
