is A HALF BARREL A BARREL? 4?

An incident occurred in the Municipal
Court, which slows how easily person
indicted for an otIcnse against the laws
can escape, through most trihns error in
the Indictment. John A. Frazier was on
trial tor larceny o: mackerel from Long
" hart. The evidence was put in to sus.
tain this charge, aud the case given to the
jury. That body was ia dciberaton about
live minutes, when they returned To the
cour, room Tor tie purpose Of getting in.
slrnctlors on certain pUin. from Judge
Nash. The foreman remarked that tho
Indictment alleged the STOLEN mackcrel 10
have been contained il barrels, whereas
all the testimony went To show that half
barrels We're used. District Attorney
Brewster argued that the term "bsrrcl," !"
used in the Indictment, was proper. The
Count did not coincide wi;!i ;lc views of
the District Acknowledging a hall

NEW YEAR.

Before this namber of our paper reaches
many of its readers, new year with its
varied and multiplied associations, will have
commenced. a New Year Hoy many
"reminiscences both Pheasant and painful
does it call forth. and how dilIerebsly il Is
reviewed. The7youth in his teens looks
back upon year spent without care and
amid sportive pleasures, and reioccs that
il brings him nearer to manhood, and as he
concevcs TO the realization of those bright
Visions, which his young Imagination has
rcvelcd in. The middle aged, with u tast
of the cares of life, looks back upon year
that presents more spots of shade than sun
shine, his anticipations nrealizcd-dssatis
fled with himself, with the world and with
his prospects, yet hopeful, that in the future
ac" phnses Of life will b. presented, ,css
replcte with care, with disappointment and
chagrn. The old and intirm, with nothing
in perspective that would make life dcsira-
blc, yet looks back upon the past year and
shuddcrs that it brings him one step nearer
the end Of life,
One year more is added TO the scroll Of
time, and it has doubtless been fruitful of
many changes TO i>lduas, TO families, to
communities and 10 nations. Some of these
changes We revert TO with pleasure, TO Others
with pnin, but each circumstance which has
helped TO unfold them, whether the change
were for better or for worse, may by u pro-
per understanding, be made TO teach n prof.
Eab!c experience. But few Of thoughtfu!
minds can look back upon the events of
ycar--mark eacl incident Of his oAn career,
and all that he has observed around him.
and can add nothing TO his stock of cxpc-
rIencc, that may possibly serve him in his
future course through life. II We are no
wiser than We were the beginning of the
last New Year, we have lived 10 but little
! purpose, and time with us is of no moment.
| If each new phase Of our ,zistcncc is pro :
PsfIy regarded, the beginning of every
New Year will find us wiser, better.
and marc capable of performing tLv
duties and responsibilities of our vari-
Gus callings in life. Time, whether it
be spent foolishly or protitably, moves on
in its even nnrcmi ting pace, and 10 effort
