publican tended rather to check the influ
erce which might be supposed to result from
evidence 80 irresistible. till a verdict was
rendered. So far, then, as prejudging had
any weight in the case, it was in Jaror, not
against Avery, as mly be seen BY turning
to the files of the Republican. Nay, farther,
the simple paragraphs which appeared in the
Republican, while Mr.. Avery's trial was
still pending" aud giving the mere progress
of the trial, were written by one who did
no, attend the trial--who reported It's pro-
gress as was reported TO him--and icho, al
the time, believed .4rery innocent y
"Win the world believe, a hundred years
hence that tho time was when one hundred and
t,ceaty men we're returned as jurors, before
t,1slpe men could be found who had no. made
up a Judgment in a case of life and death,
before they had heard the evidence, or a single
witness had been examined in court Will 1t
not be said" That must have been barbarous
state of society indeed, when men were con-
demned to the gallows .unheard. This was
woi Sc than the state of pagan Rome, where
the law condemned man before it heard
him." Yet however difficult to believe, how
ever reluctant to credit the fact, it cannot be
blotted from the records OF the judiciary that n
the State of Rhode-lsland, which boasts OF ats
renublicanism and the purity of its institutions
even in Rhode Island, there was a time when
IL was with tho utmost difficulty that a jury oi
twelve men could be obtained, who had not
Judged in a case of life and death, without hear

the church Had not these hundred and
twenty men in their possession. all the cvl
