and, BY unanimous consent, obtained leave to
introduce a Bill to reimburse the State Of
West Virginia for losses incurred by reason Of
the destruction Of its Bridges, &C., during the
late war. Senator Davis will press the meas
ure with his accustomed vigor aud with ability,
not without a prospect, we hope, of the sue
cess which usually attends his efforts:

Politics In the Jury Box.

Persons ;nhabiting the banks of
streams liable to sudden rise and fall,
have what they term 'high water
marks" by which they determine the
danger to be apprehonded' from the
advancing waters by records left of
former foundations. So there may
be said to be high water marks as
well in government. by which the
people may judge when the foods
of rccklessness and corruption have
risen beyond precedent and threaten
unusual disasters. Unless we grcatly
mistake, the high water mark ha.
recently been passed in New York in
the trial of Mayor Hail. 1t is said
that the jury remained in their room
all night, arguing the question of his
guilt sr Innocence wholly upon Po-
"litical grounds. There were seven
i~trpIblicans OH the jury and five
Democrats. The former were uiianl-
nous for conviction, the latter like
wise for acguittal. Here is q noted
precedent set for dragging into courts
Of Justice as legitimate influences to
be used in the trial of causes, mems
political opinions and affiliations.

and higher, ~rO-tcnlins 4 flood that
