bench. in one of the Texan Judicial Dis,

60 cases Of murder before him. IL in
each of tho l2 Judicial districts there
was the same number. then there were
during that time 600 cases; and that of
these 600 cases not six OF the perpetra.

before whom they were tried. The
Judge is Of opinion that a want Of con

shall turn up the clay and inert earth that
contain no nourishment for plants" Well,
IT clay and inert earth, containing no nour-
Ishment for plants lie so near the surface
as t" be within reach of your deepest wor-

they become rich. But" says inquirer,
