JuRoRs.-ln criminal case now on trial in
thsF United States circuit court, chief Justice
fancy has decided the following to be the pro-
per qualifications for a juror to try the issue:
"lf the juror has formed an opinion that the
prisoners are guilty, and entertains that opin-
ION now, without waiting to hear the testimo-
n.y. then he IS incompetent But if. from read
ins ehe newspapers o. hearing reports, he has
impressions On his mind unfayorable to the nr;-
soners, but has no opinion or prejudice which
VIII prevent him from doing impartial Justice
when nc hears the testimony, then be is com
petent.'
The general observance ofthis decision In our
courts, coming. as il does from so high a source
and as legally correct as it is in accordance
with common sense, will have the happiest ef
fect N dong away with the chicanery that in
too many instances excludes men of honesty
and intelligence from the jury box.

Warmy espoused the side of the question which
supposes the stars to be inhabited, as being the
hope OF the christian, receives severe crit
clsm. sir David has certainly some very sin
gu!ar notions respecting the stars being inhab-
tied, and in his answer to doctor Wheweu who
has written work to prove thatthe earth alone
of all the planets is nhabitable, asks. els it ne
cessary that an immortal soul should be hume
upon skeleton of bone; must it see with two
eyes, and hear with two ears, and touch with
ten fingers, and rest on duality of limbs?-
May it net rest in Polyphemus with one eve
ball, or in an Argus with hundred? Nav it
not reign in the giant forms of the Titans, and
direct the hundred hands of Briareus? The
being ofanother world may have his home in
subterancan cities warmed by central fires, or
IN crystal caves cooled by ocean tides Or be
may float with the nerieds upon the deep; or
mount upon wings as eagles; or rise upon the
plnons of the dove, that he may flee away and
be at rest The Scotch philosopher is more
speculative and eloquent than he is argumenta
tive and orthodox. Surprising it were true that
immortal souls were in the stars, and dwell in
beings mounting on eagles wings, what has that
to do with the hope Of the christian? Suppos-
ing all the planets to be devoid of life, what has
that to do with religion, or its hopes? Nothing
at all. This system of specializing in the ply
seal sciences, independent of any solid proofs,
one way Or the other, and dragging inrclgion
INTO such controversies neither honors the
authors OF religious books, nor adds single
laurel to the chapet of the sciences. An i'm
