MORE BAD REPORTS FROM THE SourH-
A native of Massachusetts,, who has lived for
the last thirty years in Georgia, and cannot
be called a "carpet-bagger" writes thus gloom
lily to friend in Springfield, concerning the
state Of affairs in that State: Cheating Yam
KEGS has been beautiful operation with some
people in this section, and the business has
been most successfully conducted. LatterIy
some of these honest traders have had check
pus upon their aspirations by some of the
duped northerners, but the necessity for
cheating somebody is as urgent as it ever was,
and if Yankees won't give us an opportunity
to cheat them we arc compelled to cheat our
nsishbors. 1t is an untruthful saying, al
though some of us act upon 1t, that "The
world owes us living" II is only too obyi-
Gus that the surrender of Lee did not termin-
ate the war, or blot out the sins which caused
and continued 1t. Congress is now incapable
of protecting the southern loyal Citizens
Thousands Of the friends of the government
have been murdered in the rebel state since
1855. There is no alternative; the friends of
the government must cease to act as such
must cease to be regarded as such, or they
must be slaughtered. When that time ar
rives, we shall have peace here, and not till
then. All the anti-ku.klux bills Congress can
pass will be of no avail. The stripes and stars
are no protection. Ku-Kluxism does and
will prevail, and there is not vigor enough in
the United States government to prevent IL,
The troubles all over the Southern states are
but preparatory to the Presidential election
OF 1872. There is to be "dance of blood,n
and all through the ineficiency Of Congress
and the President.

JUDGE HOWE, of Wyoming Territory,
thinks that women are needed on juries, and
is pleased with the experiment in that terri
tory. He said reecntiy s--. Ah.-sA- IN the
grand jury: "a year ago, for the first time in
the history of the world, women were select
ed, summoned and impannelled in this court
both as grand and petit jurors, and served as
such during the term of court then held in
this city, with so much intelligence, discrimi-
nation, honesty and propriety of conduct, in
all respects, that the Court felt bound to say
that they had gone far to vindicate the policy,
justify the experiment, and realize tie expec-
tations of those who had clothed them with
the right"

In the criminal trials there has been. Of
course, much larger percentage of disagree
ments, Il out OF 13S. Ii consequence there
have been 10 rum trials and two more where
l thought the verdict was rendered v. the
prisoner without sufficient evidence and
another where quashed the indictment as in
sumclent. Is new criminal trials in all-none
on exceptions.
Mo capital cases have been tried, each re-
~ IN a verdict oI man.slaughter and SEN
tence thereon.
'"ei years experience tends 10 confirm
'he wisdom of the act estab,;sb;rg tho
COURT and as the bill emanated from, ,h;s h.r
ana was the result OF careful ax.r,,...,o-
and discussion, and was adopted by the leo;s.
lature without amendment, the success ~ ...
court is mainly due to the gentlemen of ths
bar of this county.
If I may be permitted to express an opin.
ion, would say that in my judgment the
monthly term with its subdivision Of the
docket and of the jury and court trial lists is
by far the most valuable feature of the court.
Indeed regard it as indispensable to its
continued usefulness. By this means the
business is closed up nine times in the year
ana new departure taken; promptness and
dispatch are developed both with the bar and
the court, each term of service is Sc short
thatjurors are not wearied and the expense
OF second jury is saved, a very important
consideration to taxpayers.
Neither do 1 think it wop6 have been wise
for the Legislature to- restrict the free
choice of saitors OF. their attorneys in the Sc
lection Of the forum wheFe2 their suits should
be commenced or tried Believing that the
plaintiff and his legal adyiser are the best
judges of what they need for the speedy vim
dicasion of their allege4 pse.
Therefore it may npt.bsjmpreper for me to
say that the very DECIDED expression of the
bar on this subjectAast water in their official
suggestion to the Legislature that no legisla-
ton was necessary at "a time comedies en-
tirely with my own judgment.
Ii hereafter it shosf be thought advisable
to relieve this court any part of its labors,
the entire Criminal Jurisdiction, which was
not e@bpGed in thsorganic act and was at
the time regarded as an experiment, might be
retransSeyed, if deemed proper, to the Su-
preme Jplicial Court.
Twovauable provisions of our act have al
readybeeh adopted by the Legislature for the
Supreme Judicial Court, the abolition Of
specifications of defence, and the privilege of
certifying exceptions in certain cases to the
Chief Justice for more speedy decision by the
Law Court. 1t is believed that the time is
not far distant when the same freedom of
choice enjoyed in this court between jury tri-
ais and Sials by the presiding justice will be
