THE WEEKLY PIONEER AND DEMORCAT

After the verdict was rendered, Molony
fled . motion for . new trial, backed by
the afidavits Of two Of the jurors that tried
the case, showing the above facts - to the
manner 10 which they arrived at the amount
Of the verdict. This motion was overruled
and the case was taken to the Supreme
Court. After full argument and exami.
nation Of . great many authorities cited,
the Court has decided that the affidavits Of
Jurors can be used 10 show in what man.
nsr the jury found their verdict, and that
any plan Of gambling, chance or lottery
adopted BY the jury, which Is agreed by
them to be binding beforehand, will invali-
date the verdict In short, the Supreme
Court have adopted the salutary rule that
examination and elaboration 10 the only
we'll defined sod legal manner for jury to
find verdict.
The Court draws distinction between
this case and that Cook. Sargent L Cook
Us. Sypher, q found in Clarks Reports, in
which the defendant, day or two after the
verdict was rendered, introduced an affidavit
to show that the verdict rendered in Court
was not his verdict. In the Mannix and
Molony case the Court says that the affida-
Wits Of jurors may be introduced to show
that the jury agreed beforehand that their
verdict should be the result Of q species of
lottery.
This decision is very important one, and
was tried on the part Of Mannix by Messrs.
Lowell & Williams, on the part OF Molony
by Messrs. Wilson, Utley and Doud. 1t
will compel jurors to think, deliberate and
nationally make up their minds, and not
leave great causes to be decided by q species
Of gambling.-Dubuque Herald.

Corresptudenc. o. re Baltimore Sun.
WASHINGTON. Nov. 2.--It is understood
that the contest for the next Presidency will
begin 10 earnest a. soon as the elections Of
this day are over, whatever may be the re-.
sult In New York and Illinois, just put
forth by significant political maDiiestos,
are Mr. Seward and Mr.. Lincoln. The Re.
publican chiefs of the East and Wet have
concerted and promulgated new and extra
ordinary issues for the Presidential contest Of
1850. Their positions are-lst, that all
the slaveholding States shall become non
slaveholiing States, upon the preteDse that
uniformity in this respect is necessary to
the existence of the Union I'd, that the
United States Supreme Court should be re-
organized, so as to represent the views Of
the anti slavery party aud Sd, that all col
ors and races should be admitted in social
and civil equality. Such are the positions
simultaneously taken by the Republicans in
the Northwest and Northeas, upon the eve
Of remarkable political crisis.
If Mr. Seward and Mr.. Lincoln be sus-
tanned in the new issues which they have
made for the Republican party, by the re-
suit VI tut ttiSth't
they will become the prominent candidates
Of their party for the Presidency and Vice
Presidency in 1860. This is generally un.
derstood among their political friends, as well
as their opponents. OF course they do not ex-
pect an electoral vote from any Of the slave
holding States. Their new issues are
probably founded upon their knowledge OF
northern sentiment, They have evidently
come TO the conclusion that the Kansas
issue is used up. But their new doctrines
cannot be embraced by majority, and act
ed upon by them, without producing civil
c)uvulsiou in the country.
Upon the elections OF this day also de-
ponds the political character OF the House
IN the next Congress. and possibly the
choice Of President which may fall upon
the House.
