T The Court of General Sessions con- ing ened here on Monday with Judge T H. Hudson presiding. Solicitor terd ehumpert began the discharge of his mor rst duties as the Solicitor of this Cir- TI iit, and did so with promptness and 'pres yility. char The grand jury was organized with r. W. C. Sligh as foreman. Judge Ti :udson delivered an exhavstive charge pres to their general duties. He made an and planation of the oath of the grand N rors, and impressed the importance Mon a strict observance of its obligations. A ere should be a fearless independence offic i the part of grand jurors in the dis- 1889, iarge of their duties, as enjoined by the and Lth. They should observe the secrecy Tb joined by the oath. There is great be re eonsibility resting onthe jurois, and Cale a.office of juror is one of the most im- and >rtant in the county. A faithful dis- Cale iarge of duty on their part will do pere uch to stop crime. The municipal vernment of the county, is under w >ur direction, and to be looked after you. The public buildings, and the iblic officers and offices are under W >ur supervision. Roads and bridges stan tould receive attention. It is eom- it ad iin on to decry the road law, but if the tf. esent road law was enforced we would we better roads. Tb TBIAL BY JUBY. A Judge Hudson said there was a mat- rivec r he thought of great importance, and the thought proper to mention it at this o me, and that was our system of trial Smi r jury. It was a matter of comment Huc , nearly every one, and there was an Wee >inion amon3st some that it was a Srom ilure. He thought it was a system Whi tat would never be surrendered by the dor merican people, for they were aliber- som loving people. There is no doubt tb at many people are astonished at the in t1 rdict of juries in many cases. Our are g ries occupy a very exalted and respon- Wh ble position. Under our law, at are c -esent, they are the exclusive judges with thefacts. Iii ante-bellum days our ling dges could aid the juries in arriving have will conclusions, by commenting on the The ets, but they cannot now. Our juries Isla e composed of good men, from all divi -ts of the county; in fact, the best othe the ouny; fct,will e> of the community are usually awn. Ne Then the rooms for the deliberation M the juries were usually places with- mur it comfort, into which the jurors were 68, c reed and required to remain until and ey agreed, with no comfort except a the ht and some water, and sometimes, Tote ough rarely, a little fire. They are Jani it in these places like sheep in a pen. days bis he thought was wrong. clou He was satisfied that while it might of fr we been well in the origin of the 11th ry system to require unanmity in the 31st ading of a verdict, that rule was not Lur apted to the spirit and genius of our Spri mes. There is no more reason why is rule should prevail in the verdict a jury, than in other deliberative dies. Congress, our Legislature, and T] ir Supreme Court, only a majority is a 32 acessary to pass a law or make a judg- a wJ ent. Our Supreme Court has to pass eng pon the lives and the liberty of the busi >ple. Certainly the rule should be M1 iangedon the civil side of the Court, was least. The rule impedes the admin- M~ traton of justice. It belongs to a by- turr ne age. day: To sum up the Judge said, our rors should be treated as gentlemeni, sect 2d given some comfort during their lg liberations. The rule requiring lg ianmty, encourages crime. One nglenan often being able to make a one .ry fail to reach a verdict. It is the dau, pe of the guilty, especially in our brig ties, to get cne of their number on the last mel, and thus escape the penalty of I te law. The rule obstructs justice. up 5 is an incentive to bribery and cor.. rest iption. ' tree At the close of the charge a number M bills were handed the grand jury by sch< licitor Schumpert.

The following letter, although not in er- tended for publication, is the experi- 1 ?t, ence of a young Newberrian now in I Mexico: ;e NEW LORADO, MEXICO, nt January 23d, 1889. of I received your letter a few days ago. Wish I had time to write you a long ,ve letter, but I have but little time to Dc- write. This is the bluest day I have seen since'I have been here. It is rain- I ig ing, and a pretty cold Northwest wind ed is blowing from the Indian Territory, where they had a heavy snow a few t ld. days ago. A thin skim of ice here this morning. I had a tiger fight a few days ago. I killed him and send you the end of his tail. As I had a lay over t or I thought I would go out and kill a few t of quails for breakfast. I did kill twenty, he but I have, I think, taken my last t hunt in Mexico. I got a little farther t off than I thought, about three miles t from town, and walking along through id the cactus bushes which is about ten r feet high. I stopped a second to see s which way to go, and looking about v ist ten steps ahead of me I saw a some- t on thing laying there, I knew it was some e. kind of a beast, but thought it was c - dead; but to make sure I kickE'd 8 ed against a bush, and in an instant it rose in my face, and I discovered it to e be be a tiger. It rose to its hind feet and s ts, growled at me, and looked as if it was o t ready to spring on me. My gun was t loaded with No. 6 shot, and I was ( almost afraid to tackle himn with such a Dl- small shot, but I had little time to in think, so I poured both loads in his face a- and eyes, and being so close I fixed v him, til .[ could re-load my gun and go t a little closer, and put two more loads t W. in him. That k'lled him. I then dragged him about fifty yards to the c A. railroad, and then coveied him with s some grass and brush, and will try to t :k- go back to-morrow and get his hide to send to you, but I am done hunting in ;t's Mexico. I could take a rifle with me on my exdgine and kill one every day. to Tell Mr. K. D. Late to come out and we will go tiger hunting, but we will i ile stay on our engine. a I am getting on pretty well learning 0 )m the Spanish language, but it is so broken it is very hard to learn. This o 1d- country is very interesting. I have al- g ready given you a description of the S :k- city of Mexico. There are no trees here and you can see a long ways. I think t >m from the looks of the great mountains I and peaks that this country must have ea been once ~a burning volcano. The rocks all look like they have been i . melted. They resemble coal clinkers t os. that you see around iron factories. The F Sierra Madra Mountain is a very won to derful mountain and is said to be all gold, silver, copper, coal, and magnet he ore, and precious stones. Sierra Madra C no is a Spanish word and means "mother ~ of mountains" in Eaglish. Sierra is "mountain" and Madra is "mother," 1, The b iSpanish everything is backward. Teway we would word it would be mountain mother. You may talk of poor people and poverty in the United I es States, but you have never seen either, t nor never will till you strike Mexico. SCertainly they are the poorest people in the world. Ilam told that they kill I and eat their own children; how true this is I cannot say, as I have never seen it, but I have seen the train kill a wild cow or horse, or any other animal, mand they run and cut off a piece and throw it on a few coals until it would r- get a little warm, and eat it. I have also seen them cut off pieces and eat it raw. As I came in yesterday to a place called Roderignes, where the railroad crosses the Salough River, three Mexican women and one little un child, with no clothing but a sheep skin around each 'of the women, and "s the child as naked as when born, came up to me and asked me to help them, if 311 I could. They said they were sisters and had not had a mouthful to eat in la four days, only the buds off the bushes. I gave them my dinner and $1 each, n'a and I have never seen people appreci ate anything as much. They kissed my r's hands and got down and kissed my feet. I could scarcely sleep that night ot for thinking of them, it being cold, and knowing they would have to sleep on ir the ground, and take what come. The natives here hate each other worse than to rattle snakes, and would not help each { other to saye life. If I did not have 7s such a good job, I would leave here just to keep from seeing the people in '7- their poverty. I know I have given $25 or $30 to orphan children and help less old people since I have been here. d's The people here all have an intelli ion gent look, and the women have pretty faces, though dark, but beautiful long h's black hair, but no education at all. Well, I do not think I will get home A. before June or July. I get The Herald and News you send me every week. d's So glad to get it, I read every line in it, all interesting to me. * * * * * * * el- Dl. C.

Presbyterian.] Since other pastors are reporting to he Presbyterian the gener<pity of heir people it-is due mine to state that hey are not a whit behind the kind at. For instance, when the time came o arrange for going to Synod, they in uired the probable cost - of the trip. rVben informed that it would be about ifty dollars they gave me sixty dollars nd instructions to go as comfortably a any other delegate, and if that mount was found to be insufficient to et them know when I returned and hey would supply it. Pastors know iow to appreciate liberality of this ind. It enhanced the enjoyment of be whole trip to feel that it had been ,iven so cheerfully. Not long after thi3 the thought oc urred to one of the congregation that ur children would enjoy attending he Augusta Expcsition, and with the bought came the money for that pur ose. The children believe that they ot more information and know that hey got more enjoyment out of the rip than they would out of years at endance at the best academy. Again, when the Tennessee hogs be an to come into this market, a friend emembered that the restriction about wine's flesh had been removed and pith the help principally of the young ien of the church, suppiied us with hat toothsome de'icacy. Again. on Christmas day my Bible lass p:esented me with an elegant old-headed cane. I had'been using a ace for some years and had labored nder the impression that I would not njoy one of that kiod but found my elf entirely mistaken. Always fond f my class this beautiful and valuable )ken of regard has endeared each of t em more strongly to their teacher. ther valuable presents caine from the me direction on the same occasion.
