GRAND JUREs.-The Pail Nall ca
zeHe says: Those Of II readers who
have the misfortune to sit often upon
Grand Juries know perfectly that out
Of every twenty cases examined q
true bill will be returned for nineteen,
and since ten ut least out Of twenty
cases are absurdly trivial, it seems
reasonable to ask why a magistrate Is
not competent to settle them off-hand.
Instead of this, witnesses are sum
moned, police kept lettering at the
Courts, and Grand Juries aud petty
jurics convened, in order to discov-
or whether Tom Hodge stole a tnr-
nip from a field; or, whether Dick
Brown bolted from q public house with
an empty beer bottle under his arm.
The institution of Grand Juries may
in after dinner talk, be the palladium
of our liberties and the bulwark of
orr Constitution, but it seems q pity
that it should be made, as 1t often Is
made, exceedingly ridiculous.

The Territorial Legislature Of Mon
tana, it Is asserted, has recently been
holding session contrary to the pro-
visions of the organic statute, and, in
fact. was convened to further violate
and evade the laws. The Chief JUS
tice Of Montana, it is reported. had de-
clared that the incumbents Of two I'M
portant Territorial offices had usurped
their places and held them ~unlawfully.
The Legislature is said to have been
really convened to secure these two
persons in office, by the passage, over
the Governors veto, Of n Tenure-of-
| Office Act, which directly violates the
provisions of the Act Of Congress Or
ganizing the Territory. The Legisla-
ture doubled the pay Of its own men,
bers, appropriated $1,000 for eodifying
the laws, directed $4,000 to be eX-
pended for the benefit Of the insane OF
the Territory, entered according to
the discretion of three persons, chosen
by the Legislature increased the fees
of the Sherifis, and elected its own
nominees to offices, the appointment
to which belonged to the Governor.

The Chicago Post, reviewing the OBJ

unjust to tax as heavily the labor of a

chants clerk, who has nothing at the
beginning of the year, is taxed on his

as the proprietor who receives $4,000
rent from his stores-worth $4,000.
A widow, barely supporting her chill

law does not exempt, "a the man whose
bank or railroad stock has made the

"ANTI-RoBBER STIcK."-A New

full invention, termed an "anti-robber

a small galyanic battery. A slight
pressure causes the Instant throwing
out of a strong steel needle at the
other end, and penetrating the high
wayman who comes in contact with it.
The galvanism Of the machine at once
paraiyzes him, and II becomes an easy
matter to capture or get away from
him. The editor aforesaid saw the
inventor experiment on a dog. He
touched the animal with the needle.
and Instantly the dog became as still
and still as a poker, being unable to
even wag his tail, The only objection
to this invention seems to be that the
robber could use 1t with just the same
effect rs the honest man. Its utility,
therefore, Is questionable.

MORE ABOUT THE LEGAL TEN.
DER DECIsIoN.

The Chicago Tribune says that Chi
caso owes nearly IS, OO0, 600 contracted
before the the Legal-tender Act was
passed, and which will have to be paid,
at maturity, in gold. The annual
charge for interest on this debt
amounts to $l93, 600, which will hereaf-
ter have to be paid in coin. The impress
sion is daily strengthening that the
decision of the Supreme Court in the
Legal-tender case will be generally
received as the true Interpretation of
the law, and that, as the rule, all
moneys due on contracts, notes, bonds,
mortgages, ground rents, or otherwise,
Of dates prior to 1862, will be con-
ceded due and payable in coin, except
in cases where some other medium of
payment is specially named. There
may be cases In which circumstances
will let In various side-issues on which
suits in opposition to'coin payments
will be maintained, but rs the rule, the
indications are that payments
will be made Us directed by
the decision Of the Supreme
Court. As in point we notice that OH
the 18th instant a case upon the legal
tender question came up in the ST.
preme Court ut Brooklyn, Tuesday
week. johnson Leake sued Alfred Dou-
bleday and others TO foreclose a mort
gage for $1,000, dated July l, 1857.
Judge Pratt gave judgment in favor Of
plaintiff for principal and interest to
be paid in gold, or the equivalent of
gold in greenbacks, acting under the
United States Supreme Court decision
above referred to. Many similar cases
will probably come up for adjudica-
ton, but where the facts are estab-
lished, no different decision can be an
ticipated. Whether the same rule APP
plies to actions brought by an assignee
who has purchased n mortgage for a
consideration paid in currency, with
the understanding that he could collect
both principal and interest only In cur
rency, and like issues, remains to be
seen.
