for Mr.. Rarey to subdue. She was q fine looking
animal, but had such n propensity for kicking,
that her owner got her for COW. No one dared
to approach her, unless they were in front, and
then she would sometimes strike with her fore
feet. Mr. r. appeared confident OF success

and squeal and kick and Mr.. Rarey was compell-
ed to admit that hc could not stop her kicking

and asked some of his pupils to experiment.
The scholars became dssatisfed-somc OF them

He sent for the mare, worked again all day, Out

RrnAEkAm CmuINAL TgIAL-A remarkah,
criminal case was before the Court of Alhemarle
county, Va, last Tuesday, being an indictment
against little negro girl, eight years old for
tempting, hy The most terocious means, 10 muir
der her mistress, The Charlottesville Republi'
can says
The inhumaniJy and brutality of the offence
for which the accused was tried, and her extreme
youth, make this one or the most remarkable
eases 10 hn fund in the annals of criminal iuris-
prudence, The charge against her was that, in
April last, she attempted to kill her mistress
(who WAS confined 10 her bed from prntracted
sickness, and was very feeble, and entirely help.
ess) by choking her, dragging her out of the
bed, and hrutly beating ler with the tong', and
burning her with Goals and hot cmhers The
probability is that she would have succeeded in
killing Mrs \. very soon had she not been pre-
vented by the arrival Of the family physician,
who found her upon tic flour in u state Of in-
sCnsibility.
The prisoner, at the time of the commission Of
the deed, was about eight years and nine months
old. The cause consequently involved tho con-
sidcratiOn of the interesting question in regard
to the age at which legal responsibility for crime
commences, or, in other words, ut what age Il
person is ~ the law-writcrs say, dOh cop0r.-
This question, so far as we are advised, has not
been settled by the judicial decisions OF this coun.
try, the tendency OF the decisions in England be-
ing to make it depend rather ON the intelligence,
and the capacity to distinguish right and wrong,
than on the age Of the party accused. Black
stone mentions two cases as having occurred in
England, in one of which the accused WAS nine,
and in the other eight years of age. and in which
they were sevcray condemned 10 capital pun
ishment.
Our Court, in view of the Irresistible eyldchce
in the cause, and the enormity and brutality Of
the act, felt bound to convict Judy Of the at
tempt to kill, and to sentence her to be hung;
but, in consideration of her tender years, they
recommended her to the clemency Of the Execu-
tive c-DiSpdiCh.

Mexico.


IF one would believe the newspapers eastward
and northward. the banks Of the Rio Grande are
briStling with volunteer bayonets, ready to be
loaned to the Liberal party If desired or so force
an entrance as Glibusters if unacceptable. And
then we see 1t said that immense quantities OF
arms and munitions of war are here and passing
over into Mexico. But strange as it may appear
to the omniscient ''lon,'' ard those who swallow
all the news sent out from Washington, not a
word of this is true. Sometime since, Gov. vi
daurri was frightened by the idea that three
hundred ilibusters under Capt. Henry were
about to invade Nueyo Leon, and he hurried
himself to attempt the assembling of some of
his ''best troops in the world'' to repel the in
vasion. Others, however, said this was mere
pretensc, and that Capt. Henry and he were al
lies. not enemies. But it seems that the Cap
tain had but fifty, all told, and was only watch
ing for hostile Indians.
As to volunteers for Mexico, we will give them
some advice: If you expect or wish to be paid.
arrange it before you leave the United States, SO
that your paymaster will have funds and pay you
in your own country. Some how or other, so
far, in Mexico there has never yet been money
enough raised to pay all the Generals needed for
themselves, and the privates have not only gone
without pay, but without such food as is needed
by even the frugal and temperate Mexican How
then will our beef-eating and bread-consuming
Iahhee stahu III! lie Will win no laurelS IOr MS
country, but all that Tom Corwin wished for us
when the United States were last at war.
The war in Mexico will at some future day
freeze out. Money will not be raised much lon
ger, for there will bo none. The Generals and
their advisers having got rich.in property, will
desire to put the latter to good use. They will
want the poems back on their haciendas. Then
the war will cease. But there would: now be no
sense in putting an end to the war; and it is
much better that it should crawl on until all in
power in each party--iOr they hold distinct dis
tricts of country-naye possessed themselves OF
the best parts OF their respective States as pri-
vate property. American volunteers would pre-
cipitate things, and if starved, might even turn
out in their desperation their very friends whom
they found enjoying the fat OF the land. NO
Mexican gefe wants them in the country. lie
needs no one to share the spoils with him, un-
less there is imminent danger of losing them al
together. But 50 long as 1t remains as now,
making only "a show Of fighting, each party is
too well employed in robbing conductas and levy
