Kven if our Legislators cannot l?e induced to do l>ig work, we are grateful to ihem for their eliorls to step tho present unnecessary expense | incident to ihe Trial Justice svs-j {em. As we have several times referred in a general way to tiio alarming in- j creaso of our Court expenses, v:e pre-, sume tiiat it would not now he amiss :o pivesonio facts ?nu tigures. 3?ef?>re Democratic reconstruction the Radicals in their lavish expenditures of the public moneys paid forty cents a day for dieting prisoners in jail?tho Democrats reduced: this expense to thirty cents a day. Witnesses in State eases under the old regime received a dollar and liftv cents a day?, the Democrats reduced the pay of witnesses for tho prosecution to fifty cents a day, while witnesses lor the defence get; nothing. The Radicals allowed Trial j I t-i <>r.u llif.il- t'lll 1 li 11 ill' Pi ixf ill l-rlm i nal eases where th? defendant was unable to pay?the Democrats reduced their cots in such eases ty lii'tv cents 011 the dollar. The reduction in foes and costs were, promptly made l?v the Democrats i:i nil- > liilinent of their promises to reform and retrench, and it may not bo unintereM-j ing to note the result of wholesome leu:- 1 islation. We present below some figures in order to belter compare the workings : under tiie reduced fees as at present, and the old Radical way of doing things, : when tlie Circuit Judge never came until' Monday night of Court week, and when witnesses received three times as much per day as they do now, and when Trial Justices were allowed full cos'.s for criminal eases. It may be noted that under i1 the Radical jurisdiction the Solicitor;' drew a portion of his salary ft\:m the treasury oi the several counties in which j he served, and the same was charged toj "court expenses."' In Abbeville county i ho received $100 a year, winch, under Democratic administration, he now receives from the State Treasurer. The County Commissioners fcr the different years divided tho various items in various ways. Wo group them 11 to-,, gether ami add the columns a-; the only j clear way ot showing what tho cost of!' the court machinery really was. We! ?doom all the items beiow as "Court ex- j penses."

All |<J eyc>s turn to him, and then tlie Clerk, in j.. ll\e most soiemn manner, even ax .i.Mign he were in tho presence of the Court of i the Great 1 Am, r>-es and announces that' the prisoner at the Bar. with force ami' arms at Uudgeontown Court House, with! malico aforethought, against the j?ei*.<rc- ; and dignity of tho .Stale of South Ca.o- j < Jina, did hruise and wound one m.tiv;? !c razor back hog, and from said bruise, 1 and wounds, the aforesaid mangy ..tzor- I back hog did bleed, and bleeding tl'u' ; j die, contrary to tho statutes made .niu < provided in South Carolina.

After a half day is thus consumed, his Honor admonishes the jurymen that as a special compliment to them he will not lock them up, but will permit j them to go out to dinner, on condition! that they do not speak to anybody, and if, anybody speaks to them, to bo sure (o' "report him to the Court when he will be properly punished." After recess, the audience assembles. All that laree about marching tho prisoner under guard, tho; "great hush" at his Honor's approach' and the putting on ot mo "j nuges gown," is gone through with again. J .After getting himself properly ad-' justed on his seat ho tells the jury tha ,! lie presumes that jurymen so intelligcnr ' have kept the faith as to secrecy and out- j side influence or confercnco.

Finally he winds up with the original remark : "If you, Mr. Foreman, and gentlemen of the Jury, believe the . prisoner guilty you will t;nd a verdict of guilty, but if from tho evidence or the lack of evidence, you think there is room I for a big doubt on tho subject, you will find tho prisoner at the Car not guilty. , Mr. Sheriff, adjourn tho Court until tomorrow morning at ten o'clock."
