The Jury in the of Sutton, charged with rape
on Mrs Kone. into Court yesterday afternoon,
with verdict of Guilty of assault, with
an attemp. to commit rape"-being another OF
those disgracefu compromise verdicts for which Balt-
is becoming famous. The effect of the verdict
is to declare the victim OF his lust perured witness
that to say, they pronounce her guilty of perjury and
her volaor guilty Of the minor crime of assault with
intent, sc. OF such character this has been two
thirds OF the verdicts rendered in city within the
last ten years; SO that trial by jury has become
mockery and no longer retains the confidence OF the
community.
A negro man, named William Banks, got into dis
pute last mig ht with several white boys, when one of
them stabbed him in the side with dirk dangerously
woundng him. If tho boy should be respectfully
necied" the sympathy Of Baltimore jury Will save
him.

place on Monday next The missing witness has been
secured by the State.
