Now, Mr.. Editor, can you tell, or can any
one else tell, why that palC should be laid so
heavily upon the people, rs it is in many
cases, merely for the benefit or qualification
o John Doe - Richard Roe. when they agree
to disagree about their own affairs.
let us look at one instance, among many,
where the people pay the piper whilst
Others dance. \ certain lawsuit has been
tried Of She present term Of our Court now
in session. which is the second time the
same suit has been tried and verdiets rem
dered. and We have no assurance that II Will
not go through the same process several
times more.
But TO the point in view. n parties TO
this suit were so particular that n regular
jury was not good enough, but they must
have a special, or select enc brought together
from the four corners Of the County, al an
expense of, say, 5000 or more. The trial
lasted some three weeks. the per diem of the
jury amounting TO $4,000. In the meantime
the regular jury were in attendance, draw
ing their s2La1 per day, which, for two weeks,
the time they were actually idle, amounts to
$500 more, making in all:
Expense Of summoning special jury,
Z mileage, s1VU
A-
each Der 5000
Feesoi iuleJury waiting for something
10 luGl up -N.pV
Making a total $500
Injuries receive pay for sundays, a point
on which ! am not altogether certain, there
would have to be added SI2l.O0more. TtCelrc
doI'grs only, Of the above amount are paid by
the Iitigants.
Some might think, when the people build
Court Houses, pay large salaries 10 judges.
pay officers to wait on the court, the bar and
the litigants. furnish stationery, fuel, lights,
&c, their share OF the expenses OF individual
q~uarrels should end, but not 50; they must
pay a large portion OF the cost Of each quar-
rel that comes before the courts. thereby en-
couraginE litigation by an %unrighteOus out
lay OF the hard earned money collected from
an over-taxed people.
It may somewhat mollify the feelings of
the public TO nov that the parties to the
case above mentioned, for the benefit of
whom the County has been so heavily taxed,
are nOn-residents, neither OF them living in
the County, and n OF them living in anOth-
or State. But hat does not effect the case.
It is q good representation of "how the mon
ey goes" and the same thing, to a greater or
less extent, is, and has been common in all
our courts. What say you PeopIcs SATISFIED,

WARN DRINK WITH FoOD.-For person
of weak digestion, is mot warm drink OF
some kind admissible with their food? If
tea and coffee are thought injurious, what
can be used as a substitute. AS a rule it is
better not to drink anything at meals.
There are some cases, However. as where
the thirst has been made intense by irritat-
ing food and condiments, and also in certain
morbid conditions of the stomach and gen
eral system, where drinking at meals would
be advisable. In such cases warm drink is
often better than cold, but it should not be
above the temperature of the blood. II
warm water is pleasant to the taste, it ia as
good as anything. If it is not, then corn
coffee, bread coffee, lemonade, barley water,
ETC., may be substituted, but tea and COFFEE
should not be used in any case.

EXHIBITION OF ST vMcEMrs ACADRzEY.

JEFFERSON CITY, June 26, 1868
Editor Morning Star and Catholic Messenger: ~
our blg metropolitan schools will have
to look well to their laurels. The annual
exhibition and distribution of prizes to the
pupils of st. Vincent's Academy, at our
city hall last night, demonstrated rand
competitive strides by the rising population
of this youthful city.
For four hours the crowded audience was
held attentive to q rapid succession of the
interesting items of the programme. One
of the most attractive features of the occa-
sion was the admirably drilled brass band
of neatly uniformed pupils, from st. Mary's
College, In your city; two of whose mem
bers, Masters Melancon and Sullivan, if /
mistake mott added greatly to the enter
tainment of the audience by their off-hand
delivery of eloquent addresses, in French
and English, unannounced in the bills.
Altogether, the performances of the young
pupils were decidedly successful, as was
evinced by the frequent applause of the
spectators. The dramatic efforts, in par
ticular, of Masters Becker and Cestac be-
tokened great talents in that line and it is
safe to predict for them much success,
should they hereafter be called upon to act
as public spokesmen for their fellow citizens.
After such display as last nights of the
educational advantages offered by our
Christian Brothers, it is to be hoped that
our youth, instead Of being sent abroad for
will, henceforth, be kept at home
under parental eyes, and by q daily attend
ance at st. Vincent's Academy help to en-
