Every farmer knows full wen that If h,
has TO winter his pigs, even In the inSs,
fertile corn countries, and cannot get over
three cents per pound for the pork he il
loosing money; how important Thea, ihat IL
Keeps such q breed Of swine, ard feeds
them 50 well, that he can bring the pirs,
dropped early in the spring, to weigh from
2OO 10 500 lbs., in December and January.
lei people say what they will about tie
necessity Of having old hogs to make q
thick cut Of clear pork on the ribs for
packing, we know this is al garnmo,nr -
We have seen many pig fed well from
his birth, that. would weigh full $50 lbs,
and cut fo,.- inches thick Of clear pork On
his sides at nine to ten months, old; and
have heard Of others weighing 900 lbs,
and cutting five inches. Now this Is all
mat \ = necessary. for the Navy or, Bos,o,
fishermen and more than is desirable by
consumers in general. Our b.st market
for pork is England, and the people there
prefer it from hogs weighing not over lis
to zoo lbs, and like the lean well mixed
with the flt. We would never winter
any thing but breeders OF the swine fami-
ly, and the msment the pigs were dropped
we would commence showing them with
feed till ready for the knife. The farmer
who pursues this course will make from 80
to 90 per cent. more on his pork than
those who winter their spring pigs. AZ
for autumn pigs, we would not have
them. Let the sows breed but once
year. .e
Three or four years ago we prophesied
that the low price Of pork. would soon
make It scarce, and now il is fact; and
by and BY, when choice bears will be
wanted to improve the breed, they cannot,
be had, for our farmers are growing care

A Charcoal Road.

There is always something new being
discovered, in this progressive country
The people Of Michigan, lor want Of stone u
are making roads Of charcoal, and Il is ssaid, !!
they succeed admirably. Tie process ID
thus described in the Cisvslard Herald:
Timber from six to eighteen inches
through, IA cut "A feet l6ng, and piled up.
lengthwise in the centre Of The road about
Ave feet high. being nine feet wide n The
bottom and two al the top; and then cover
ed with straw and earth. in the manner of
coal-pits. The earth required to cover the
pile being taken from either eide, leaves
two good sized bitches, and the timber al
though not split, Is easily chafred, and
when charred, the earth is removed to the
side Of the bitches, the coal rakeds down, to
. width Of fifteen feet, leaving it two feet
thick at the centre and one at the sides,
and the road is completed"
A road Of the kind thus described, ID
now being made near Blissfeld in Mich
igan. About seventy rods have been COM
.pleted, twenty Of which have been used
for seven months, and the remainder for
three months. II is in bad swamp, on
the leading thcroughfare west. tits said
that on an average, sixteen hesvily loaded
teams pass over it daily, and yet there il
no appearance Of rust, but it presents an
even, hard surface. 'e tit
The road is made BY contract a the price
Of $3.50 per mile. It is considered very
compact and free from mud or dust. The
Hon. Elisha Whittlesy and Mr.. Newton,
an engineer, who lately inspccted.this road,
report Of il as follows: - A-
cat each end Of the different sections Of
The coal road the mud on the canseway was
fet-lock deep, where there was that depth
Of earth; and nearly or quite half axeltrec
deep where the logs were broker; when
on the coal road, there was not The least
water standing, and the impress Of the feet
Of horse passing rapidly over II was like
that made on hard washed sand, as the surf
recedes, on the shore Of the lake. The
water is not drained from the ditches, and
yet there are no rnts or inequalities in the
surface Of the coal road, except whdt Il
produced by more compact packing on the
line Of travel. We think it Is probable
that coal will fully compensate for NE def-
cheney of lime stone and gravel In many
sections Of the We@t---and where's 4 road il
to be constructed Though forest land, that
coal may be used at fourth Of the expense
Of limestone"

They are intertwined with The records VI

We can trace them through the long annals

them back beyond this even to the very
constitution OF nature and the globe itself.
They are the dictates Of philosophy, in

we live, and Of which I'VE form portion:
for when that mighty Power who spread
abroad the heavens, fixed suns in their GEN.

elites, measuring the course, limitless as it
seems, of the wandering comet, which, in
ITS wild career, moves from the intensity
Of light TO the deepest darkness; binding
all together by the principle Of graeitation,
and thus united it to other Systems thro,,ph
all the infinity Of being when that Power
fashioned this earth of ours, it made re-
fiex Of the combined, harlnonized, and mu-

70 the astronomer when he gazes on the
heavens-it endowed one climate with one
species Of fertility and another with anoth-
er, and surrounded the earth with those
zones-temperate, torrid and frigid-con-
siituiing climates, sunny or moist, in all
their diversilies, and gave the luscious vine
to grow upon the banks Of the Rhine and
the Rhone, and enriched the spice-islands
with their fragant products--it spread the
broad and vast prairies of America, suff-
cient to grow corn for the whole worlds
consumption; planted the tea groves of
China; endowed the sugar-cane with its
sweetness; and gave to Britain its coast,
minerals, and industry, and by these, as

Another revolution has taken place in
California. This the fourth within the last
twelve years, against THE Mexican author
tiles. During the same period, six Mex
lean generals have arrived in California,
one OF whom died, and the next were sent
back BY the people, having held command
for only six years altogether, while Alvar-
ado. . native, who put himself in Office
eight years ago, ruled the other six. The
facts respecting these revolutions are briefly
these:
About eight years ago. Alvarado and
others took possession Of the town Of Mon
terry, and Of all the papers and property Of
the government. The Mexican general
and officers were sent TO Lower Caiifor MIA,
with leave 10 return to Mexico, by any
means they could find.
The Californians tnok possession Of every
part Of California, with the different offices
Of honor and profit within this department.
Mexicans remaining in the country made
an effort to put them down, but failed
Bustamente, the President Of Me vico, the
second year after this revolution, confirmed
the Caliturnions in their different employ
ments. During the time they held COM
mand, they treated with gross ind.gnity al
most every American arid Englishman, and
finally sent them out Of the country. "A
part Of those who survived, were sent back
by the Mexican government fifteen months
afterwards. .e
In the year 1913 General Manuel Mich
eltorena arrived in California with three OF
four hundred officers and soldiers, and by
order Of President Santa Anna, took COM
manipulating out Of Office some Of The
Calitornians. Last November, Alvarads
ard many others, again rose With the de-
termination Of sending ont Of their country
the Mexican troops. The two parties me-
and made a treaty. Within a month, how.
ever, they each denied the treaty and agar
took up arms.
Hosiilities were kept up between III,
two parties until the 2lst Of Februafy last
when the Californians succeeded in thei
efforts against the government Of the reg
ulaf Governor, Micheltorena. After /
final battle, treaty was made, By whicl

Newspapers and JurOrs -.sst have
formed an Upi iuiOn.0 aS'


This frequent answer Of jurors called to
try capital or other important cases is now
Beginning to occupy public attention, and
Inquiries are making how far such an an
swer can legally excuse juror from serv-
ing on the panel. In the 4th Wend. it ap-
pears that Mr.. Justice Marcy, makes a
man incompetent who says s.he has made
up his mind in case from reading a
newspaper, and if the report be true, he
believes the prisoner guilty." Judge Ed
monds believes that this was mere opin-
ion, as practical illustration; and not to
be deemed a set decision. In commanding
the services Of jurors as right, conferred
upon the administration Of Justice, Courts
OF Law should be cautious in receiving
the objections Of persons to serve on a
jury predicated upon what they read in
the newspapers. It is the practice to re-
port every examination or case which oc-
ours in our Police, in the newspapers Of
the day. In these reports nothing but
eIpaste testimony is heard. They are
mere complaints on suspicion, or probably
predicated on more sure grounds. But no
defence appears; the accusation only is
read in the newspapers, consequently a
citizen has right to say eff what have
read be true, | have made up my mind
that the Prisoner is guilty;" but little re-
Aection should convince him that this opin-
ion cannot disqnalify him from serving on a
Jury, because it is founded on erpaste testi-
nony. The question should rather be,
lido you from your own knowledge know
any thing respecting the guilt or innocence
Of the accused, which would disqualify
you from sitting as Juror the case
If he does, he Is not competent to try the
case, but mere opinion based upon what
he has read in the newspapers, should
never form the basis of his rejection from
| the panel. Besides, those who do not Wisl
to serve would be apt to fall back uponths
old experiment Of s'I've made up an opin
ion." 1fall who read the newspapers. ca,
be legally excused from. serving on a jury
panel after panel may be exhausted an,
the ends Of justice thereby defeated. w,
should be glad to have this subject cooA
and dispassionately discussed before th'
Supreme Court, and some definite actioi
Obtained in the premises, 50 as to insur'
hereafter intelligent and willing juries.
