One of the causes of DELAY
in the proceedings of this court
is the large number of new
trials granted in cases of conviction.
where a week or more has been spent in
the trial. On inquiry we learn that
nearly all these new trials have been
granted in consequence of the miseon-
duct and separation Of jurors.
How far the separation of juries affects
the validity of verdict, in alegal sense.
this Grand Jury Is not advised /; but that
new "trials " are more the rule than the
exception is fact within our knowl-
edge, aHd patent to all who are con-
versant with the records Of this Court.
That this is q mopstrous evil no one will
deny, ineurring heavy additional ex-
penses, IS well ss filliog the county Jail
and greatly delaying justiee. Ii the
separation Of jury Is sufficient ground
for granting q new trial, then it Is GER
tainIy such so o1ense az this Court may
punish. Whether there are other
grounds upon which new trials are fire.
quently granted, this jury Is not 3D.
vised. We respectfully submit that this
Court use its powerp to punish all who
so offend, believing that by this means
the evil may be remsdied.

The Far WEsT.-A correspondent writing
to US from Laramie city, ffty-three miles
west of Cheyenne, says that that point bids
fair to be another centre of excitement and
speculation, in very short time. 1t is al
ready distinguished by extravagant rent for
ground privileges, hasty building, and
general confusion. He further says that
lots which two weeks ago, from May 18th,
sold for two or three hundred dollars apiece,
are now bringing from one thousand to
twelve hundred dollars. Lots "a BY 1872
feet in size, on which to pitch tents or erect
light frame buildings, command as high as
$500 per month rent. A cigar stand
on the side of a small tent, brings from $50
to 500 per month. People are rushing in
there from all directions, some settling down,
and others pushing on towards Wyoming
North Platte, Green River, and the Sweet
water mines. The railroad is expected to
reach Green River by the first of January,
and as Laramie city will be the resting point
for the winter, lively times may be expected
there. Many are going to North Platte, as
the next town is to be built there. Large
stocks of goods and long trains of contract.
ors' wagons had departed Immediately before
the writing of the letter, for points beyond
the Platte. Among others, our fellow citi
zens Warner and Whitman have contract
of fifty miles west of the river, which viii
not be finished before July.
Our correspondent states that many flock
out there with the expectation of suddenly
accumulating wealth, but of course, the
main portion meet with disappointment
All the money there, must be taken by the
Adventures, so that they are all compelled
to live off one anosher-not very profitable
| operation for most of them. Altogether, he
doesn't advise people to hurry there without
duly considering the innumerable difficulties
and obstacles which VIII be certain to meet
them at the very threshold of this new Ell
