EXHAUSTION Of THE SOILS,
The following paper, says the" ('Inciter

and depletion of our soils going
on with an accelerated ratio; and well may
the true and patriotic eitizen become,

'I'ho discovery of the Phosphate hods,

this treatment a time will soon be reached ,
when the soil will no longer contain tho
i lements of crops. Tlio one-crop system
has no doubt largely contributed to this
exhaustion. To the mind of your committee,

Ibid. That a portion of the lands" be al- j
lowed to rest alternately, llcst is a great |
law of nature. Hence Clml instituted the
night season and one day out ol' every '
seven, for rest and in his laws for the govern- j
lnent of his chosen people he ordained that ,
the lands ,?hould rest at the periodical return 1
of a certain year.

encouraged, thereby enabling funnels to
in.ike home manure, if not <juite so active
as the commercial mies, it will no doubt in
the end lie more remunerative.
btli. That advantage should be taken of
the laws ol'nature. W e see nature everywhere
trying to conceal the sears on its

encouraged. This tree, beyond e mtrover.*y,

be more cone titration in the op-rations of

There is no reason why every acre tilled

in it the following to your consideration as
the result of our investigations : liy nay
of preface we would say that it seems easier
to point out the causes of this exhaustion
than to specify means for its prevention, or
remedies tor the restoration of the soil.
Wo therefore present the subject to yon in
this method : 1st, the causes; 2nd, th j
lemcdics.
The ^rcat and primary causes of this ex
haustioii arc to be referred to the avarice,
want of judgment, indifference and improvidence
of the inhabitants. When thiscouuliy
was fust settled by our slu.dy aueestors,

An Aiilk Attack on the Ji;uy System.?.J.
II. Hopkins writes in The Albany
Haw Journal: Why should nut the
majority control in law us in politicts?in
juries us in appellate courts? Too often
some lool or knave will tiud a place on the
jury,-who, through the intellectual opacity
or from pecuniary considerations, will be
''faithful until death" aud prevent a verdict.
Trial by jury hah become such a
lottery that it hasgiven rise to this uiuxiui:
if you have a strong ease, try it before a
judge or referee; if you have a weak ease,
try it before a jury." Might uot incompetency
be avoided aud justice more surely
obtained by committing to the judges the
decisions of qucstiou of fact as well us questions
of law ?
This would necessitate an increase in the
number of judges, but to this there could
be no little objection. The amount of
money actually expended every year for
i jurors aud the auiouut lost by those who arc
forced to neglect their business in order to
! act as jurors, if it were computed, would be
j found sufficient to pay seven judges at evI
orv court It will cost more to buv a iud^o
than a juror? The judgs is dependent
upon the people ; ho is their servant, and
the dignity ui' that service, the honor of
the oflico, the respousibiIty of the position,
and the fear of detection and disgrace, all
tend to render him invulnerable to bribery
ami to place him above suspicion. II', however,
as is sometimes the case, a man of
low character is raised to the bench and is
induced to sell himself, he at least, sells
himself dearly. On the other hand, a
| juror cau often he bought for a few dollars,
and the purchase of a juror defeats justice
as completely as the purchase of a judge.
The jury system, as it now exists, is beneficial
it? only two classes?professional ju
; rorsan.l jury lawyers. Men of the lirst class
owe to ir iheir subsistence ; and when placed
; upon the jury maintain the eaine of I hoses
, \vh.? employ them with a tenacity which cn|
a urea victory. Men uf tliu second class exist
| by reason of the system. They pilot a weak
case into the harbor of success on waves
I of talk. They are guiltless of sound reas'
oiling; but they understand how to play upon
the jury and draw forth whatsoever music
they please. Their existence proves the
defects of the jury system. Jicforc the
higher courts they are powerless for tlie
higher courts are swayed by logic rather
j than language, while the jury regards logic
i with the same feeliugs witich the devil is
supposed to entertain eoncering holy water.
The jury is the clown of the law. It is
constantly inventing new and ingenious
tricks for the evasion of duty. It is tin
patron of the joke called ''temporary insanity,"
and the author of numberless other
jests of a like character. It is a never-failing
source of amusement to all except its
victims. There is nothing uncertain about
it but its uncertainty. It has been sneered
at and satirized and lampooned and carricai
lured. .Judges nave snuoood it, and legal
i wits, like Outran, have riddled it with sarcasm
in open court. Vet a mistaken conservatism
sailers it to continue its blundering
way unchallenged.
Vet such is the reverence for :i11Li?|uity i
that any change or improvement in the jury
system is, to say the least, improbable for
many y-.us to C1 inc. It lias glined too
great a reputation as "the palladium cf liberty
to bo hastily abandoned. Hut the reverence
due to long established institutions
ought n t to degenerate into blind worship.
Ho /ev?r venerable a system uiay be, those
defect* which mar it should be eradicated. !
and ii" it is wholly bad it should bo abolished.
; .la Igo it fairly then. Crowu it for xvhal it J
