In (his matter no blame can attach to any oilicer i or aclinic oilicer. It is the erroneous leg-! islation t-> which we object. Asweun-| derstaud it, the Solicitor gets a stated sal- ] ::ry for hi.-. services as sti-h. and thon an- J other law. or another s ivtion of the same I law, requires that officer to attend thej meetings of tlie Ccneral Assembly, j whether the Court is in session or not. 1 j For such attendance on the (funeral As-j j-embly he receives a dav, in addition | to his salary, and then the State pays for | the services of an acting solicitor to do the work which would have been done by the Solicitor himself, if he had been j acquired by law, to be in Columbia, j This irnv be all l iirijt, but we either mis- j understand the facts, or there is some foolish legislation, and a little waste of the public money. Hutas the present General Assembly seem to care little lbr expenses, it is a waste of breath to talk] about inducing Ihem to pass even one *wt looking toward retrenchment. ? <j> ? ? Petil I.'trcrny. in sunr; ^i-?i.TUiii.ui ut 4.111 4 1 'Id explain the ual diiJVronce in the crime J <jl' >te:i!iny a pig ami a wheel-barrcw, or in stealing a dozen cars of corn and a j j> 1;>\v stock. A1! thisstntl' about protecting crops in the liold by statute is the merest draft on one's credulity. When corn is ripe it should bo gathered or looltod after. The farmer who leaves his crop in the Held alter it is'ripe, or fails to cxercisc a reasonable vigaluticc over it. has 110 more right to complain than would a merchant if lie left his goods in the woodshed and had them stolen. The stealing of live dollars worth is p-ity larceny, no matter whether it is in corn, cotton, <lrv goods, bacon, or grubbing lions, and there 4s no justice or equity in saying that the stealing of a sheep is a greater sin than tno stealing of lifteen dollars' worth of bacon from somebody's woodshed. The i lea thiu live stock and Jiold crops cannot be looked after with the same vigilance as other property does not bear a face, if the l eader is willing to put himself to the trouble of doing a little thinking for himself. All this s-teivotvped rhetoric about the extreme sanctity of neglected crop-sand uncared-for livi stock goes for nothing. A stolen cow, or a sheep, or a hog is extremely hard to conceal, if the owner takes any care to look it up, and as for stealing cotton, that is next to an impossibility, if due diligence is given to its care. We have Trial Justices in this county, oud any of them are lully competent t<> try all cases of petit larceny, and ninetenths of the cas?s of assault and battery 1.. 1 ?r IK' VI Jil I.IV* ?? , i; we had a chango in thc^crinilual law. Why take such cases into the hi^he; Courts where the expense is perhaps ? thousand tiinos greater. Ono of the best measures before t lieGeneral Assembly was a bill t > make the Trial Jiii>ticrc a salaried ollicer?not dependent upon the fees of his ollice. As matters now stand these o Hi curs havi constant temptation to put the county tu expense. ? < o Mate no Discrimination. The country at present is in dread of the spresd of small pox, and we think all ourpcoplo should be vaccinated at once. We notice that the town council of various towns ha.'C made arrangements foi the vaccination of the indigent citizens ol the diQerent municipalities. We believe our own town council should make arrangements to vaccinate all our citizens, irrispcctivu of color or lir.ancial status. The taxes arc eolic.'tcd from the property j holders, and we see no good reason to! justify the town council in discriminating against those who pay taxes, and may Ik able to pay for their own vaccination. Vaccinate all our citi/i-ns without charge, and prevent the disagreeable duty o! drawing an odious line between rich and pooi-. Many inav feel unable to incur the expense of vaccination and at the same time have too much pride to place themselves on the list us paupers. Treat nil alike, and pay the bill from the public treasury. To vaccinate every citizen in this community would not cost as much as would a single ease of small pox. This disease ongiit to bo prevented, , if possible. Let si nail pox break out hero a:id much of our tradu would be driven away to other markets. In many ways would that disease cost much morel than the vaccination of all our citizens, j Make no distinction between rich ami | poor. Treat all alike. And let the poorest protect themselves and the commuui- i ty from this scourge, without incurring! odiu tn. ? Co'. John 11. Abuoy fur Att?nicj-Geu* oral.

Other of our ex-1 changes have made m>ta of the fact, and in one or two instance*, the brethren of! the press have said that thi > is too early ; to begin to talk of nominations. From , this opinion we dissent. Let tis taik t!;i?, i matter over now, and l.-t the people* have : an opportunity to make their wishes known. If we do not canvass the ability ! and fitness of tlie* prospective candidates, I the people will have no i'llluence in the choice,and the nominating convention. ! though anxious to carry out tho wishes of their constituents, may err in the best efforts to please and to serve faithfully. Wo are glad to seethe different names | brought out, and take pleasure in copy-1 ing some notices of Colonel Abney in j connection with tho office of Attorney' | General. These notices are given as information, without having come to any j definite conclusion ourselves, as to who' will be our choice. There can be no! donbt that Colonel Abney would work j most zealously for the success of the tick- j et, and that ho would make a moso excel- j lent and acceptable officer. *o? The Registration 15111?More Fat Of* flees. j This bill will become a law. Because j , in the city of Charleston, registration is! deemed beneficial to the city, the members of the General Assembly from that; county, seventeen in number, voted sol-: Jdly for the enforcement of this law on tlie country districts, where a majority of' m \ the members believed such a measure injurious. There is ono advantage, how-: ever, in this law. It creates? good office in every county?and the office is not filled by the people, either. All they have to do with it is to fool the biJl. The reg ist ration alone will cost the State about ?30,000 at each election. There is u strong: effort to make three railroad com mis-! si oners to fill the' place now occupied by one. This will create two more good piaoes. ! ? 5 - f . l y Tiik Jurtjre nny coutiuuo Court for a n.onth, if necessary. 1 lie Expensive Larce.

So far sis gutting pond and j <) ab'e men on t?:<? Jt.tneh is concerned, we 1 li tve no complaint to inuUe, l>n! w!iat we ; t object to is 11;" lej;!<i:it i- ?n which degrstdes ' << tho o?is.*o. 1!' any j roof of this stMe;n<-ut j i was necessary we would cite the reader in to tlic proceedings of our Court n ?w in j !i session. A learned Jnd^i', with many I ii vesirs expririenca at I lie Kir, fmd twenty j e venrs service on the Bench; an able So-it. licilor representing the State: li ft V jury-! e men, and a battalion of witnesses?ali | e tliese come to Abbeville, and their titnojc is employed sit enormous or;pense to try! a the most contv mptible eauses. |t Our people are long-suflerlnpr, audio may consent to a continuance of this'.a farco which drags t!;o:n from every rjuar* t for of the county three or four times a | v year to t!ie Court House, but v;e do not! a believe they will. J ii If we are to gr-t no other rellei, wejp might>avo something by reducing the Jo silary of theJudgw to a thousand dollar*J ti and that of the Solicitor to live hundred |V dollars. Men can be had at these figures ! I fully competent for the work. j t Our Taxes* 1 In levying taxes, for defraying the 1 comity expenses for the current year it is ^ hoped tliat the Legislature will mako the! " amount sufficient to meet the demand i It is injurious to the citizens as well nsj1 damaging to Jho credit of the county, to j ? have its paper hawked about tl>c street at i a ruinous discount. The fact might just! 1 as well bo acknowledged at once, that a;1' three mill tax is not sullieient to pay)' eight thousand dollars for the luxury of js crime, and leavo enough to meet neees- j sary expenses of the county. Five mills, ^ for county purposes is little enough as | long as a Judge is compelled to try i 1 a dollar thief for stealing a dozen ears of; c corn. As matters now stand it will take e about two mills to pay the deficiencies of,0 last year, and at the end of this year, we', v may expect the sa:r?e deficiency if wo;, levy only three mills. We suggest the wisdom of levying enough to pay past j indebtedness, and a sufficient- amount toj pay current expenses. It is true that! i this would raise the county tax this time r to seven mills, instead of three, but as! ( long as we insist on having expensive J i machinery, wo ought to pay cash for the luxury. c The Xcnfoorry Notts. in Our good friend, the Scwbcrry News,'1 notes llie fact that that paper has lost a j ,subscriber because the Herald and the: Sens are "ptintcd so near tite same-8 time." Just you be quiet, lliehard, and! f ! continue to make a good paper. The!' Preys and Banner lias io>t many asub-j scriber bccauso of competition, ami it J has lost many more on the score of delin- j queiicy?but it Ins yet a thousand good ' J anil true names. The News savs that it' has lost three or four subscribers ihisj year! Why, friend, we would rejoice if! ?v? in 1 not lost more than that. Yonrji eyes would till with tears if we wore to j I it'll you 1) >w many wo have cut off since j |( l'hris:mas. For instance, ono hundred'!' and twenty-live delinquent subscribers will be disappointed to-day when they CO '. to the post ollice for this week's Press n and Banner?lo say nothing of the debt-1 j ors who were disappointed last wenk and r .he week before.

Aju delegation representing this company are f' now in Augusta to make some arrange-[ ti nients with that city. We wish them ' j] ^rcat success. Augusta is a live, cnerget-! v it town, and knowing the advantages to 1 !>e derived from a railroad connection t ' I J with the Savannah Valley, we are in-' dined to the opinion that our neighb >rs | will not let this opportunity pass. IJy H consolidating the Savannah Valley with the Greenwood road, a most valuable ; f< highway would be opened up to that {j growing city. The roail now in opera- i t Ion could be utilized in connection with i f * the Savannah Vallcv Itailroad from Troy, U i distance of perhaps li fry miles. \\ e ' j, I wish the S.ivannah Valley Itailroad the, ? : largest measuro of success. j y ! Doctors, Ten Dollars?Other Citizens, ( Nothing. js It seems hard that witnesses who are l I. ; bound over to attend Court in State cases, I in behalf of the defendant, are not paid ^ for their services. Tn such cases the eiti- ,, zen nothing, but if a physician is ^ summoned for the Slate, he is allowed a |. fee of ten dollars. At every step it seems j' that we haye put objectionable laws 0:1 n our statute books, with all the tracks,11 | pointing the same way. Why pay the j physician moro than the merchant, the! s< farmer, or the mechanic? No ;rood rea-1 [j son can bo assigned for this discrimina- :< tion. If our Legislature had an idle hour 0:1 baud it mi^ht repeal the law giving " the physician ten dollars, and restore to t. the statute books the law giving a small ! pay to the unprofessional citizen who' iuay be called in as a witness. Wo can-! not see the justice of denying witnesses 1 it least an amount sufficient to pay tlu-ir board at a cheap bearding house. j<> Lot Them Adjourn. Our Legislators are honest and patriot- " ie, and they have worked faithfully in I* pursuance of their misguided notions, c But the fact is, the l"ss of their work K which is accomplished, the better oil' wo ii will be. For this reason we hope that 'j1 * ? 11 1 ? ? ? 1! 1 . . i .. in:u noiioruoio n.iuy nm\ aojourn ucioro r any more biils " got through." They j have, in our opinion, done more to crcuto j.! distrust in the minds of the people, ami ,i have, we believe, accomplished more in-.jj Jiirious work than all the Legislatures |( whieh have assembled since the exciting 1 {, days ol" lsytj. in view ol' the evils which , 11 beset us, it might bo in order for our reli- 's'( gious bodies to order a day ol' fasting, A humiliation, and prayer. f ^ 3Iorc Bad Legislation. A bill is now before the Legislature to j repeal the Usury law,and to re-enact the! ; law of ISfW on the subject of interest for money. It makes seven percent, (he le-gal rate of interest in the absence of a contract in writing between the parties,' but allows contracts for any rate of inter- j est to be made. This will enable money-! lenders to charge any interest they please, i and will have the effect of putting a1 quietus to any spirit of enterprise which j may exist in our State. Who will care to' rut up factories and mills, when a high' rate of interest may be demanded of a! poor debtor? Flint's the Matter ? Hope deferred maketh the heart sick, and we arc led to ask. why this delay in ! prosecuting the work- on the Greenwood ! and Augusta Railroad? Although it has been alleged time and again that the oili-j ce>-s of this company had all the money they wanted, yet they have not laid a mile of traci; a week, since that part of the work was commenced. The ears seetn to linger at Jennings'and Darn's < Mine, and the people l?cgir> to fear that! there is some mystery connected with the j delay. Thk roads are almost impassable. The fact is, the mud is so deep, that ii is almost impossible to move vehicles along j the highways, while a good pedestrian can make better time on the foot-paths! I?V the roud-side than can equestrians j srtide the best of animals that have to ! aide the deep mud. Xot a Candidate. Owing to the fact that we had not a stifcient number of copies t?f the Prcxx and \ tannero( last week, we failed to furnish! Iiirty or forty of oar exchanges with n | opy containing this article. l-'or this cason, we reprint the following editorial ,i a few copies of thi.s week's paper: The BarmrvU People, a few weeks ago, id the senior editor of the Vrcaft and {'.inner, the honor of nominating him foi j iiO oitice of Secretary of Suite, and scv- J :*.? brethren of tl>e press have seconded he nomination in words of compliment nd ex|>res.sivo of good feeling towards lim personally. As words of kindness is friendship ami approval arc more prologs than rubies, we have hereiofort rai.sferred some of these notices to otn Diuuins-tnti tins we'jK wh prtweiii nmrs. Tiiis is not done with an}- view o! rcatiu:* the impression that we would he candidate lor the ofliee, but in order iiat we might preserve and present to iir readers their expressions of favor ml compliment. In acknowledgment of lie evidences of friendship and esteem >'h'a-ij lust prompted the nomination, ml in uttering our assurances of our cartv appreciation of tin* kindly exressionsin seconding the same, wo make iir most profound bow, while saying hat we have no political aspirations! rhatever. If we can be of any service' > the people of the State, it shall be in lie endeavor to furnish them with as ood a newspaper as it is possible for us o make. As editor v.e can serve the teople better than we could as Secretary f Stale, and in the former position we lope to serve tliein lor many years yet lo! oiiio, Seeking 110 olfleo, and believing j hat the people prefer an honest' ex pros- j ion of opinion, (even if that opinion con lids with their own,) to any attempt to! ullow public current, we shall with due leference to others, say whatever we beieve to be right, and then furnish thereaons for the faith that is in us. Again thanking the brethren for the' lonor which they have conferred, we. vould say that our only aspirations are, 0 publish a good newspaper. To be the j litor of such a paner is to attain a high-> r honor than any which can be conferred i !i any citizen at the ballot-box or else-: .here. i -.*>? - ? Jo venue Officers .About lo Oct the "Jnstiec" Intended for Distillers. In describing a recent raid on the illic-j t distilleries ol' the mountains by the, evenue officers, the local editor of the: irrcnvillc Xctc.i makes use of the follow- i ng significant words: " While two of them were on the roof' if this peculiar structure, several ol their oinpanions in arms mistook them forj listiliers in consequence of the darkness, >nd were about to lire, but discovered heir mistake in time." If the persons on top of the roof had >een distillers, hiding from their pinners, it is fair to presume that the "rcv'iiues" would have been justified in lirng cn them "in self-defence."

A sore arm, with j Intlammalion and the appearance of a sear, docs not necessarily mean that the vaccina(lion has been successful. Hut It Is considered 1 by Ihe majoriiy of people, who, in conse! qiience, go to swell-1 lie iiiiniher of the vaeelj nated. And In ease they fall victims to small I pox. Ihlsls used as an argument npaliist vacjCinalijn, which hn? really never taken place. I Caiel'ssness on the part of physicians and ' poor virus arc Ihe mo?i common causes of ! failure. That the former Is more general j than is fitipposed Is shown by Ihe testimony I of a prominentWestern physician, lie has loumi, in examining hundreds of patients j who have applied for rcvncelnatioii. that In i many <ases only one sniuil inei.-ion had been j made originally, and that, judging irotn tne I appearance of the cicatrix, the llrst vaccinntl on had not been successful.

Jf per.-ons vaccinat; ed with such care, and successfully, are found | succumbing to small pox, the opponents of vaccination may fairly score a joint. IUt! j statistics arc proverbially delusive, and null ess it can be demonstriitid that any cited i number of vaccinated people who yie'dc-l to J small pox were vaccinated etleetaa ly and I successfully,tlic figures amount to little as at! iartrumenl. j Kvery hospital surgeon knows how little credence can beulveii to tlic mere word of a patient. The Malemcnt of a competent physician who performed thft vaccination and watched the results until convinced of Itssuc! cess Is alone conclusive testimony.

Tin to was some apprehension, however, that Judge Cox vould adjourn the Court and begin his charge to-morrow morning, lie lor a while was disposed tn do this ; but lit view ol' the fai-t tlmt Ilie Jur.v I desired lo have thecal given to them at once j he determined to finish the trial to-day, li I possible. .Ji.dge Cox had evidently prepared ; ids charge with a great ?l'*al of care.

It was a concise, clear and positive statement of the local definition ol insanity of iho^nuvc which thejury must apply to tin evidence sustaining both the sanity and the insanity claims, it left no sort of doubt it; the mindsot thejury as to precisely what, was Insanity as contemplated by the law, and gav< them no opj ortunity i??r any other dlscussior among themselves, exeepiing the single on? iis to whither the evidence introduced met the legal resist rem cuts. Tnc charge was -jik to which, even the counsel for the defenci isaid, little or no exception could bo taken and no exception at all was possible upon lii: I statement of the law. I Nevertheless it sounded to the nuitlcnce | tuxl. as sinee learned, was accepted by theju j ry like lite deaih sentence of Uultcau.

Soon after 5 o'clock, and while dusk was be coming darkness in the Court room, thejurj took the case into its own hands. A grim vis aged ballitl' making his way through th< dense throng tlx t stood between thejuryatn I lie door beckoned to them to follow hlui. A colored Sheriff, gat tiering lip some of I he doc umeutary evidence, prepared to follow, am one by one. thus escorted, the Jury made Iti j way from the Court room Into the consnlta j t!on room overhead. Judge Cox, alter thej I had u'one, leaned over the har and converses quietly with one or two lawyers Mr.Seovilh and Mr. Heed, the prisoner's eoun-el, chattel | with one or two of the audience. Judge l'or | tersat silent, while Corkhili made the onij I officious exhibition by gathering together tlx documents and papers with which the table: wi re strewn. (iuit-au sat In the dock for five or six min ntes, like a statue, after the Jury had gone it was too dark to see his features, hut thosi who stood near him said lie whs iii utter in g something to himself. lie finally looked uf toward the Judge and tried to get up, hul lit seemed to have lost his strength, and theoffi' cers wtio guarded him thought lie wasgolmi to break down. At last he 'wild in a weak voice, unlike that lie has used to interrupt tin; pioecedlntts, that lie would like to bt taken out of the Court into the Marshal's of tiee. and Jutke Cox consented. Two hail 1ft took him one by each arm and he was led through the throng, his head bent over, his eyes upon the tloor, shuffling along until lie got out.of the Court room. In the Marshal'? office he was seated In a chair in the corner, and when one ot the deputies spoke U? him asking lilm bow lie fe!t. he replied in a tremulous volcc that, ho was anxious to have ll over, it wore 011 his uerves very much waiting for the jury to come in. lie would not sf.y what he thought of Judge Cox's charge, j Fifteen minutes, perhaps, after thejury went out -Iudge Cox decided to give a recess for hall an hour. As soon us thecrler annouced this the audli-nee began to converse in loud tones. [ Women held dainty sandwiches in their fingers, and there was the fragrance of freshly cut apples The whispering became murmuring, and the murmuring chatting. Everybody who bad a seat kept it; no one would give up bis place. Corkhiil, the District Attorney, was a picture in pantomime, 11 is round head bobbed back anil forth as he whispered to this or that man, and ho threw oil' some of the official dignity which routine lias rendered heavy for IkIs shoulders. Somebody passed him a red apple. He put on the look of one Insulted, and knocked it 011 the floor. Mr. Scoville stood like a etatue with his arms folded, while Mr. lteed, who was talking with a lawyer, sadiy shook his head, I as if in anticipation of a verdict. Within ten minutes after the recess had ! been taken thejury called to the hailitt in I waiting that they were ictdy with their verdict. They were Informed that a recess had been taken, and that Judge Cox had left the Court room, so they remained in their rooty until the Court reassembled. The rumorthat thejury had agreed wasijulckly spread from one to another, and an c.Netted crowd surged buck into the Court room. j l-'lret in the procession of actors in the I drama came the prisoner w ith quick, nervous ' ? ' - '..I I.li^..ir I.. 111., ilra.il 111,. I light iif a solhury candic foil I'uli upon his I face and disclosed its mure than usual pallet-. Not a tremor of the limbs orn movement of the muscles of the fiieo was observable as he threw back his head and fixed his gaze upon the door through which the jury were loonier. .Indue Cox took his seal, and the orlerealled "Order," and the jury a! o.-'t'i filed slowly into their seats. Kvery sound was hushed saved the voice of the clerk as lie put to the foreman the usual inquiry, "have you agreed?" Clear and distinct came the reply, "We have." "What is your verdict, guilty or not guilty?" "Guilty, as indicted." Tin n the pent up leelings of thccrowd found expression in uproarious demonstrations oi applause and approval. "Order ! order!" shouted the bailifT. Mr. Hcovllle and counsel for the prosecution were simultaneously upon their feet. Mr. Seovitle attempted to address the Court but the I)i-trict Attorney shouted: "Walt till you have the verdict complete and In due form of law." Order was at length restored, and the clerk, again addressing the jury said : "Your foreman ays 'Guilty ns Indicted.' So say vou all ?" "We do," they all responded. Another demonstration of approval followed this announcement, but not so prolonged as the first. Mr. Scovillc, still upon his feet, demanded a poll of the jury, which was granted, and each juror was called bv name, and each in a firm voice promptly responded, "Gullly." As the last name was called the prisoner I screamed : "The vengeance of Almighty God will be upon you for this outrage. My blood will tie upon the heads of that jury. "Don't you forget it." Mr. Scovillc again addressed the Court, say Ing: "Your Honor I do not. desire to forfeit any rights I may lmve under tlie law and practice In this Pistriet. If there is anything t Imt I ought to do now to have those lights I would he indebted to your Honor to indicate it to mo." Jnd;:e Cox in reply assured him that lie should have every oportuiiily thill the chaise would In- furn islied to hi in in print to-moir.iw, and that. lie would t>e accorded all the time allowed l>y law within whleti to file his exceptions, and In1 would also tie entitled to lour days within which to move in arrest o!

Worry won't do your case nnv good." "That Is good sens.;," replied the prisoner: 'I intend to brace tip, ami prepare to make a stilt tight before the court in banc. I am sure of fair treatment there." An attempt was made to draw out ail expres.-ton from Guitciiuas to the conduct of his counsel, but he only said : 'Their theory was wrong, but S.'ovilie and Kced battled bone-tly for me. fliey were no match for the tricky lawyers of the prosecution." lie express"-d lo the warIciiTui earnest desire toi-ee Mr. Scoville tomorrow morning.

Warden rocker gave strict order* that no one should >e allowed to see the prisoner during the night save Ml. Seovilleaud Col. Coikhi I. snouted themselves bourse in mockery of the irisoner's constant boast, "The American press and people itreall with me," The van was quickly driven away, followed till it was out ol sight, by the jeers and yells of the crowd. Mr. Scoville will probably tlln a motion In .irrcsl of Judgment and for a new trl.il 011 exceptions. Tne law gives the defendant four days to file the motion and reasons for a new trial, and It is customary for the Court to sit on some day to hear I he argument thereon. Should this motion bo overruled the defendant will appeal to the General Term, and under the law he Is entitled to a suspension >r tlio till nt'ii'i' ilu> tit?xL ironerul term, not excelling thirty days. The .l;muary general term Im now in session, ami tin; ease can not go there, but will be appealable to the April term. It is the custom Tor the April term to run until September?taking a recess over July and August?but should It be closed by the tatter part of May, then, irthc Judgment Is ellirmed, the hanging might lake place In July, Mr. Scovllle said to-night he expected to (lie a motion for a new trial on Saturday. Tu a certain extent this action will merely formal hiu the main points on which it will be based are as follows: That the Jury erred In rendering a verdict contrary to the evidence ; that Judge fox in his discharge did not b ise it upon all tho evidence. and that the Jury, daring the trial, read the newspapers and had conversation? with outside persons, Mr. Scovllle said that should this motlou be denied an appeal will betaken to the court in banc in April, Referring to the verdict, Mr. Scovllle said that after hearing Judge Cox's charge he was nol surprised thai the Jury rendered a verdict ol guilty. The general con vlctlon Is that a new trial will not be granted, (iultcau in Ills Inordinate vanity, apparently believes that the President will Interpose to save him from the gal lows, but tils counsel entertain no such Idea J lifillimore Amrricmi.J Foreman Hamlin was the first to describe the result of the brief deliberations of the Jury. Mr. Hamlin said that he feltas tired as If he had been performing manual labor, and was worn out physically and mentally. While tliojury was out, lie said, then* was very little time spent in discussion. The IndicimenU were ail read, and that occupied nearly all 01 the forty minutes during which the jury was out. It was tacitly understood before they left the box what iheir verdict would be, anel that is the reason why they asked for the charge this evening. In answer to the eiues Hon as to how long did he think it had brer slnceall thejurors believed Gulteau sane, lit answered, "Well, that Is hard to tell. 1 think that there has been little or no doubt o his sanity since the testimony of Dr. XobI.Young. lie Is Washlngtonlan, nnel every mat: on thejurvhad faith In Ills Judgment as ai expert. lie spoke directly to the point, it plain language, and without using so many of the technical terms the others employed, I think that tils testimony had more to di with, convicting Gulteau than that of any 1 other one man." Dr. Young, It should be rc niembered, is the physician at the Jail. Mr Hainlln said that several letters had been ad dressed to him while foreman of the Jury, bu that they had been placed in the liands o Judge Cox. To-night he opened them. One 1 of them was from Jack Rrown, of Georgin saying that if the Jury did not convict <>ui teau, seven hundred men had sworn to kll every Juryman.
