IMPORTANT TRIAL.--A trial of interest has
just been conclHded at Charleston. that Of
Francis VanpcIi, for the murder OF Robert F.
Henry, one of the wealthiest men in Charles
ton. Henry's estate is valued at million of
dollars Venuch Is an exhibitor of WAX fig
ures. The killing occurred from a belief on
the part Of the prisoner that the deceased had
invaded his matrimonial rights The trial &C.
cupied three days, during which time thecourt
house was densely crowded, and terminated in
a verdict Of not guilty. The result of this tri-
al should serve as a warning against violations
of the established course of justice. The pub
lie mind had been so inflamed against the pris-
oner, that short time before the trial it was
strongly urged that he should be taken by
force from the jail, and hanged without the
form of trial and yet, when the verdict of not
guilty was returned, it was received with loud
applause by the crowded assembly, so great
was the change produced By fair and impair
ial hearing Of his defence by counsel.

BEEF. LAW IN MASSACHUSETTS.

A friend of ours, who sometimes sends,
cattle to Brighton, made some inquiries Of
us, in regard to the rules of the butchers
in that State, respecting the dressing and
weighing of beef cattle. The following
is an extract from law in that State, in
regard to it, which will answer his que
ries.
"AlI beef cattle, except bulls, sold in
market by weight, shall, when slaughter-
ed, be prepared for weighing in the fol-
lowing manner The legs shall be taken
off at the knee and gambrel joint, the
skin shall be taken from all other parts Of
the animal; the head shall be taken off at
the second joint of the neck; the entrails
taken out, and all the fat of the same be
taken off and weighed as rough tallow,
and every other part of the animal, ex-
cepting the hide and rough tallow, (ihe
udder of COWS excepted shall be weigh
ed.
CAN beef shall be weighed upon the first
week day succeeding that on which it may
be slaughtered"

proposition on the ground that the tcrri~
tory is now free, and they VIII never con-
sent TO settle il with Slaves, then the South
proposes to leave the Whole question to
the decision of the legal tribunals OF the
country. on the principle of Mr.. Ciayton's
bill. IF this proposition be rejected, then
they propose to do nothing by law, and
leave the matter TO be settled by the laws

EDITORIAL PRovERBs.-We find the fol-
lowing in one of our exchanges. 1t contains
wholesome advice, applicable to all latitudes-
and the last two paragraphs, we commend es-
pecially to the notice of our correspondents,
some Of whom may derive both advantage and
consolation from the perusal.
When thou goest to printing office, talk
not to the compositors, nor NEEDLE with any
thing which thou mayst see there.
If thou bringest writing for publication,
withhold not from the editor the name of the
author thereof, lest thou seemest to deal fraud-
ulently, nor ask of him who hath written a GER
tain piece, lest he may not wish to tell thee.
Let the writing which thou mayst bring be
legible, lest much time be lost in decyphcring
it, and be not too long, else no one will read
it; but see to it that thy style is clear and thy
words simple. that all may understand thee.
And take no offence if thy piece be not
published, for it might have injured thee or
dishonored thy friends, and it may be that the
editor hath other pieces better than thine.

Hang on those bitter words that stern reply,
The cold demeanor and reproving eye.
The death steel pierces not with keener DART
Than unkind words in woman's trusting heart,
The frail being by thy side is of finer mould;

love of tenderness. How delicately tuned
her heart each ruder breath upon its strings
complains in lowest notes of sadness, not heard,

under current, while the fair mirror Of the
surface gives not one sign of woe.

AGRICULTURAL.
WOOL GROWING.-ADDISON
COUNTY.

The increased prices obtained for wool
and the avidity with which it was sought
in market, after the passage of the Tariff
act of 1923, pointed to that business as
more lucrative than any other. A ma
lority of the farmers eagerly engaged in
increasing their hocks of sheep. The re-
suit has been, that Addison county had,
In lS40, in proportion either to territory
or population, greater number of sheep,
and produced more wool, than any other
county in the United States. To show
the truth of this remark, refer to facts
drawn from the statistical tables accompa-
nying the Census returns of 1910, and
from other sources.
There are nine States which had more
than one sheep to each inhabitant, to wit ::
Pennsylvania, Virginia, Maine, Ken
lucky, Connecticut, and Ohio, with a
fraction more than one ;-Ney Hamp-
shire and New York had about two and
one-fourth, and Vermont more than FIVE
and three>fourths TO each inhabtant.
Should territory be regarded, Vermont
will be found &c have 1876, New York IL
and New H ampshire 60, to the square
mile.
Addison county, when compared with
the other counties in the State, will be
found to have eleven and six hundredths,
Rutland eight and eighty-fve hundredths.
Grand Isle seven and four hundredths,
and Bennington six and nineteen huns
dredths, to each inhabitant If territory
be regarded, Addison has three hundred
and seventy-three, Grand Isle three hun
bred and thirty-four, Rutland two hum
dred and eighty three, Windsor two hun>
dred and sixty-one, Orange two hundred
and forty, and Chitteaden two hundred
and twenty-one, to the square mile. Ia

keeping of sheep, one half the number III

capital. The mountain chaps listened, quiet
