JAMES BARwELL,
Under Indictment for Murder.

Argument of w. 7. for Defense.
OF course our client was acquitted. Who
ever knew a Kentucky jury to convict where
they believed there was 'fair fight"
Cockburn and the Manleys rallied at the
jury, as might have been expected; but a one
armed man might talk as much as he chose,
since he could not take up the quarrel and
as for the Manleys, what matter was it what
O set Of ''no account wagon-makers" said
"And Miss Celia2' She is married to
thriving planter in Tennessee. "Her
father?' Lives on his estate, comfortable and
respected.
dNO poetical justice, then?" Not a par
ticle.
do not practice in Kentucky now; this
trial and few others in which was con.
cerned, gave me some food for reflection. l
confess to preference for dying in my bed
like Christian, and have too keen a sense
of the value of my existence to be ready to
risk it for the sake of client who may not
pay me after ALL don't desire to be
pounded with hickory. cane welded at the
Court house door by witnesses wrathful at
having been cross examined. And, though
! might have continued to steer clear oi
difficulties by caution and suGvity, l thought
it best to plant myself where "dilliculties'
are not quite so common.

The Cincinnati Weekly Press
Having passed into new hands, its present
conductors have determined to reduce its
subscription price to such a rate, to club
that the poorest person in the land need no
be without paper.
The PRESS shall not be surpassed by any
Weekly Journal in the West either in its
News or Literary Department. We are
determined that it shall be faithful epitome
Of the current events of the day, and that
what is not found in its columns will scarce
be worth looking for. OF course, we do not
expect 10 give elaborate articles on each
event of the day, but the reader may look
for succipt and intelligent account of every
transpiring event.
Particular attention will be given to a
faithful record of the absorbing topic of
the day,
