PUNCH'S CHARGE TO THE JURy.

Ihe subJoned charge was copied from the
London Punch about fifteen years ago. Not
wlthstanding the antiquity of the document.
We consider it in some respects, "rnodel''
charge-it, at least, possessing the merit OF
leaving the jury unbiased in their deliberations
upon verdict.
GENTLEMEN or THE JuRY-You are sworn IN
these cases TO decide according to the evl-
! dence at the same time if you have any doubt
you are bound to give the prisoner the benefit
OF lt.-SuPpose you have TO pronounce on the
! guilt or innocence OF any gentleman accused of
felony. You will naturally doubt whether any
gentleman would commit such offence-accor-
DINGHY however strong may be the testimony
against him, you viii perhaps acquit him. The
evidence OF your own is; at least, as credit
able as that of the witnesses if, therefore. YOUR
eyesight convince you that the prisoner is a
well dressed person, you have right 10 pre-
sumo his respectabilty and it is for you to say
whether respectable person would be likely
to be guilty of the crimes imputed to him.
In like manner when you see shabby look |
ing fellow in the dock, charged for example |
for sheep stealing, the decision rests with you, |
first whether or not that individual is raga-
muffin, and, secondly, how far it is probable |
that man ofthat description would steal sheep.
VI course, as has been before said, you will al
ways be guided by the evidence but, then,
whether the evidence is trustworty or not, is a
matter for your private consideration. You
may believe it if you choose. or you may disbe-
lleVe IT and whether, gentlemen of the jury,
you believe it or rdisbelleve it, will depend upon
the constitution OF your minds. If your minds
are so constituted that you wish to find the
prisoner guilty, perhaps you will believe il ifI
hey happen 10 be SO constituted that you de- {
are to find him not guilty, why then very like
y you will disbelieve it. Y0u are to free your $
minds from all passion and prejudice if you can,
md in that case your judgment will be unbias- 4
ed but if you cannot you will return YER e
lict accordingly. It is not, strictly speaking, e
or you to consider what will be the effect OF L
'our verdict but if such a consideration should P
ccur to you, and you cannot help attending TO u
t, that verdict will be influenced by it to GER d
ain extent. You are probably aware that r.
When you retire, you will be locked up until o
ou contrive 10 agree. You may arrive at "
by fair discussion, or by some of YOU e
tarving ont the others, or by tossing up and a
our conclusion by whichever ofthese process Z
s arrived al, will be more or less in accordance
it Is TO be hoped II VIII lIot' -i Il
entlemen of the jury, you will come 10 some
opcluson or other, unless il should so happen
hat YOU separate without coming 20 any. g

LET HIM REST.

"Heroie spirits war not with the dead
Let him rest
He has done with light and life,
And his ear is closed to strife.
Though he trod The path of shame,
Touch, oh, touch notno,c his name
Who can tell the grief he bore,
Ere he fell 10 rise no more 7
Many thorns his feet have pressed
Let him rest-Iet him rest!
Let him rest
For he knew il not on earth;
From the banquet-hall of mirth
SANDER beckoned him away,
Lscghed TO see his hopes decay;
Aud he bTooded Ger his woes,
TIL in death be found repose.
Every flower that love had blessed
Quickly faded-Iet him rest.
let him rest
While you drop friendly tear
oFer his dishonored bier;
Once his soul, like thine, was pure
could'st thou all his wrongs endure,
And receive no spot or stain
Whisper not his faults again.
Cruel thorns his feet have pressed
Lee him rest-let him rest RoLLgx.

AN EXPENSIVE J0KE.

The day before New Years, two gentlemen,
well known among the citizens of Brooklyn as
urnen of ueaDs.' named Theodore Polhemus
and William Hunter, met al a saloon IN Fulton
street near Hicks, when PohemuS asked Hun
Ter he was going to make any calls on New

TO make calls but had no coachman, and IN
boastinr manner said that he would give So0U

sav,DS to Polhemus, "Why don't you take the

snlandid coachman." PoIhemus acknowledged
he commitment and said he would serve for
that sum, Hunter then told him to be on hand
at Two O'Clock the next day, ready for service,

The conditions were agreed to, and they parted.

VANDALISM OF THE WORLD.

Fancy what we should have bad around us
now, if, instead of quarreling and lighting over
their work, the nations had aided each other
in their work, or if even in their conquests,
instead of ellacing the memorials Of those they
succeeded and subdued, they had guarded The
spoils of their victories. Fancy what Europe
would be now, If the delicate statutes and. tenn

You talk OF the scythe o! time, and the tooth oi
