Ati InterrsHuti Trial in 1'iryinia.?The County Couil of Allifiniii'lu t'otsnty, Virginia, disposal of mi interesting rase last. week. Il was tli.il ?>f Stat*- vs. Judy. a slave (jirl of \V. O. Ternll. The Charlottesville Kepiiblieun ea v*: The charge against her was that, m April last, she aitoin|it' <l t lull her mistress, (who was confined to her he.l from protracted sink liess. Mini wiis very fee.hle, ami entirely helpless,) hy choking her, drugging, her out i>f lied, ami brutally heating her willi the tOi.;rs, an'd burning her with coals of lire ami hot embers. The probability is that the would have siu:c-e-ied in killing Mrs. '1'. very soon, had she not heen prevented l>y the arrival of the family physician, who found her upon the tlour in a 6taie of insensibility. The prisoner at the time of the commission of the deed was about eight ycara and nine months old. The cause consequently involved the consideration of the interesting question in regard to die age at which legal Ie.-qxm.sihilily lor crime commenceH, or, in other words, at what age a person is, as the law writers say. ilrli culms. This <in?Eim,, no fur as we are advised, hits not been settled by 'lie judicial decisions of this country; the tendency of llic decisions in Holland being to make it depend rather on llio intelligence ami capacity to distinguish between right mid wrong, than on the age of liie party rcrumiI. J.iackslone mentions two cokch ax having occurred iti fcngliiud?in one of which the accused was nine, nnd the oilier eight j'ears of aire, and in which they were severally condemned to on|?it<>t punrsliineut. Our court, in view of the irresistible evidence in the cause and the enormity and hrniality of the act, felt hound to convict Judy of the attempt to kill, and to sentence her to he hung; but, in consideration of her tender years, they recomirtendcd hor to tho clemency of the Executive. How and When to Jint Ft uii.?Vruit should not be indulged in between meals, as thoueli it was a luxury, but used in moderation, at "meal time, in the place of auimul ami other food.? Jt should not ho ealen for desert, after a full meal has been made, as is usually dono? a custom which cannot be too severely reprefinuded. Fruit may, with pafety, be eaten at any meal, but it would be well to confinn it to breakfast. The old saying will be found true by practice. " Fruit is gold in tlie morning, sitter at noon, and lead at night/' Let h constitute a part of the breakfast, and b? eaten at no other period of the day; let it bo ripe and not eaten immoderately, and incalculable bene fita will arise from ita use, both in preventing the ncccfs and staying the progress of disease during this summer and fall months.?Hall's Journal of Health.
