Unanimity in Juries.

The New York World says Our con.
temporaries discuss with much interest
the wisdom and expediency Of that inher-
tied rule of law imbedded In our Federal
and State constitutions which requires
unaniuiity in the verdicts Of juries. The
occasion Of this interest in the subject ap-
pears to be the introduction Of measure
in the British Parliament looking to a
change in the system now and 50 long ap-
piled in that country, which Hallam de-
scribed as 'sthe preposterous relic Of bar
barism In many quarters there is eyi-
dently the impression that movement to
break up the nnanimity system in Eng
land is new. On the contrary, It has
been going on for nearly half century.
A Royal Commission iu 1880 recommend
ed that majority Of three-fourths of
jury should be competent to return ver-
dict. On this Commission sat some Of
the greatest common-lawyers Of the day.
Minority verdiets are valid in Scotland,
Australia, France and other Continental
countries, and work we'll. In 20 other
tribunal is nnanimity essential to the val
idity of its decisions Why in juries !?
The truth is that in the whole contriyance
for deciding disputed facts We unreasona-
bly, cling to inherited forms after the ne
cessity or occasion for those forms has passed
away. We demand twelve men ID jury
box. Why that particular number2 Who
knows why the number Of twelve was

The First of April.


The following well-timed and sensible
remarks on the miseries Of the First Of
April, we find in the Mechn1csbuy True
Republicans, and as they applysequally as
well to this county, We reproduce them:
"There is no other day named in the
almanac which attracts so much attention
and is filed with so many hopes, expecta-
tions, disappointments and chagrin as the
LIST day of April in this community, that
being the general settlement day 1t has
been the custom so long that the memory
Of man runneth not to the contrary that
that day is the auspieious time to settle
accounts thee and me. How it came to
be established we cannot say any more than
We can give the reason why moving day
is on the same day, or in New York on
the first day Of May. IL is nuisance
nevertheless, and we are informed by our
bankers that the practice Of making pay
ments on the first Of April is increasing
with surprising rapidity every year. If
A. makes purchase from B. he gives his
note maturing on the first Of April 1s--.
B. gives similar obligation to c., and thus
it goes. Everybody expecting everybody
to ANTE up on that particular day. Now
what is the consequence? Why, from
about the inception Of year to the second
week in April, everybody is short Of cash
Parties who have money to loan hold it
for snap on the list. The banks are
compelled to contract their circulation in
anticipation of run on that day, and as
a consequence we country people lose three
months business every year because We
make the lst day Of April settlement day.
We have known farmers who have sold
their grain in Winter and deposited the
money they received for il in bank, aud
compelled their blacksmith to wait until
the LIST, who in turn settled with his cred
itors on that day. Now what is the use
of all this? Why not, when giving an
obligation make it payable at say one year
from date, or 80 days after date, instead Of
'on the first day Of April 1874, / propose
to pay A. B., one hundred dollars? We
charge nothing for the suggestion here
given. but hope it will receive the consid-
eration Of our financial economists"
The Democratic advocate. [volume] (Westminster, Md.) 1865-1972, 1873-03-29
Charge It.

A simple little sentence IS this, to be
sure, and yet it may be considered one Of
tie most insidious enemies with which
people have to deal. 1t is very pleasant
to have al the little commodities offered
for sale in the market, and it is sometimes
hard to deny ones self of the same,
when they can be obtained by Just order
ing them and saying "charge IT," But
the habit Of getting articles, however small
the expense may be, without paying for
them, keeps ones funds in low state
most Of the time. Il have not the money
to-day, but l should like the article very
much, says a young man who, happening
into store, secs somthing which strikes
his fancy. sNerer mind, says the gentle
manly clerk, ''you are good for i" ~Wcll,
| will take II and YOU may charge IT,
And 50 Il is that little accounts are opened
at one place and another, til the young
man is surprised at his liabilities which,
though small in detail, are sufficiently
large in the aggregate to reduce his cash
materially when settling day comes. Iu
many instances, If the cash was required
the purchase would not be made, even
had the person the money by him; but te
some, getting an article charged does moi
seem like parting with an equivalent
Still, when payday comes, as Il always
docs, bis illusion vanishes, and feeling
is experienced Of parting with money and

A SHIP Thar Has CoME HoME The
ship that was to bear fortune to the
Chase heirs has at last come hesne,
bringing with it the snug sum Of $780,
10000 to be divided among the Ameri-
can heirs Of threc brothers, Engiishmen,
who emigrated to this country about the
year 1880 OF these brothers Aquilla
settled in Newburyport, Massachusetts, !;
Thomas in Rhode Island aud William in
Yarmouth, Massachusetts,. A fourth broth
er named Richard, remained in England.
The vast property comes by descent from
Sir Townley, living about the year l600
at Townley Hall, in Lancashire, England.
He was the progenitor Of . certain Miss
Mary Townley, who married man named
Chase, who was the father Of the four sons
mentioned This Mary Townley was the
heir Of all her ancestors immense riches.
A late decision Of the English courts has
given them three-fourths Of the sum Of
1886, 900, 600, the full amount Of the in
heritance In our times to the American
heirs, the remainder, about 1926. .000, 900
having already been distributed among the
heirs Of Richard, who had remained IN
England. The Annapolis Rtpubiican says
it IS now eensrally supposed that the Mary
land Chases viii come In for part Of this
vast amount, as they trace from the same
common ancestor. Nothing definite has
yet been asceftained however.
