County CoURT OF Decision
IN Gaze ora Free Negro Charged with Felony -
In the county court Of this county u decision was
made yesterday in the case Of the Commonwealth
vs.Waters, a free negro, charged with felony
Waters had been tried before the court sitting
as a court Of oyer and Terminer, and had been
found guilty. His counsel moved an arrest Of
Judgment, on the ground that the prisoner was
entitled to trial by jury and could not be legally
convicted OF felony except by the unanimous
consent Of twelve men, according to the eighth
section Of the bill Of rights.
The motion Of the prisomeT's Is counsel was sus-
tained, the court holding that the provisions in
the Bill OF Rights included all free IIers0nS-a
construction which is said to bo sustained by the
usage and laws Of Virginia from 1875 to lsS2-at
which latter date free negroes, in cases Of felony
were, by an act Of the Legislature, placed upon a
footing OF slaves In respect to form Of trial.
The Sth section Of the Bill Of Rights alluded to
above Is as follows:
"That, in all capital or criminal prosecutions,
man hath right to demand the cause and ma
ture Of his accusation, to be confronted with the
accusers and witnesses, to call for evidence In his
favor, and to speedy trial by an impartial Jury
OF twelve men OF his vicinage, without whose
unanimous consent he cannot be found guilty, 4"

aney they SO fondly oovet, which has been
their passion and their bane.
That these politicians should expect the
new agricultural and manufacturing popu-
lation they propose to introduce will adopt
the Southern political philosophy Of placing
the rule In the hands Of few Of the First
Families, Is only another evidence Of that ju-
dicial blindness which could not foresee the
inevitable results of q struggle for human
slavery upon our soil We cannot believe
that the Houston Telegraph echoes the senti-
ments Of a very large portion of the Southern
people since the war; II 1t does, we much
fear that Southern blood has been shed in
vain" But we anticipate quite different
results from the proposed infusion of new
element into the population Of the South !
that 1t will extend to those regions the prin.
ciple Of republican government, of the dOmi.
nance Of the majority; that il will dispel
tho miasmatic influences of the Southern
political schools, and advance the true polit.
ioal greatness Of the nation.
