THE TRIAL RY Jury.

Apropos of the present desultory discus
sion of the jury system, we copy from the
Jackson (Tenn.) Herald: , -
ssWe have been asked by one of our
friends If change in the jury system does
not lead up to conflict with the Constitu-
ton of the United States. We examined
this matter carefully, consulting with some
of the best legal counselors Of our acquain-
lance upon this point and do not think that
the word fury as used in the Federal OF
State Constitutions, necessarily presuppose
a Jury of twelve men. 1t il true that The
idea of jury of twelve has become to
g:eat degree crystalized in the public
thought, but in other States, in many in-
stances this number is varied. In New
York, magistrates jury consists OF SIX
men. In some States, eeroner's jaries are
composed of seven men. Grand juries for
merly consisted of twenty-f ur men. 10
Kentucky sixteen sre required, and in Ten
nessee smaller number. The CO Dmon
law defini ion Of the VOID Jury would call
for twelve men, but the dehnition in lesi-
cons calls for given number of sworn Tree
holders The Constitution of the United
States is not in the way of change. The
only obstacle, if any exists, would be in the
construction of the word jury by our own
Supreme Court, and that can be met by a
change of the Stats Constitution, which will
take place in any event, before many years
have passed"

FAsr YOUNG MEN.

Mr.. Fulton, editor of The Baltimore
American, has been travelling in Europe
several months, ard in one Of bis letters
from Vienna he writes:
"We are under the impression in Ameri-
ca that our young men are not as steady aud
st i'd as they ought to be, bat they are mir
acles of steadiness compared to the average
young men of = ermany. The students at
Heidelburg can give them start of half 3
day and beat them before bedtime. They
don't drink strong liquor; COTE, beer or
wine being the extent of their libations, but
they devote the best part of the day to the
cafe ar the bser saloon, reading the papers,
playing billiards, chatting or studying the
plates in the numerous satrical papers. How
the many thousands of young men in Vienna
obtain a living and good clothing, who are
always to be found in the cofee-houses, is
a mystery that no fellow can find out 1t
is equally a wonder to the people of Vienna
as it is to the stranger"
Mr.. Fulton forgets the old adage that
there is only sixpence between those who
work and those W o play, and that the latter

RECALCITRANr REPUBLTCANs.

kECAhCITkANT REHORAhCAHS.
The resent contest in Massachusetts be-
tween the Butler and the snti-Butler fac
tons, with Grant supporting The former
with all the patronage of the government,
has resulted in awaking the more thoRght-
full of the Republican journals to The danger
of Federal Interference in local State mat
tiers. The Boston Advertiser, the boldest
and most outspcken OF these journals, de-
CARES that its fight has not been made
against Republicsnism, but against the per-
versions and corruptions of RepublicanisuA.
1t insists that "if the Republican party is
10 be saved, the work of reformation mrs
begin at once and be prosecuted in earn
est" and it adds this waning: "If the
party which has heretofore represented Re-
publican principles to the country is to be-
come the representative of q policy degrad-
ing, currupting and selfish if the test of
fe lty to it is TO be non resistance
to the conspiracies of bad men;
# the immense forces of the public
patronage are to be perverted systemasical
ly, aud without rebuke, to the support Of
ambitious claimants; IL the fair expression
of the sentiments of Republicans Is to be
prevented by intimidation; if its caucusses
are to be controlled by gangs of hired enc
mics, and if its conventions invite the pres
ence of brawling candidates. advocating
their own cause without modesty, and re-
Wiling whoever dissents from their estimate
of themselves without respect for truth or
dscorum, it need have no expectation of
being Icing recognized as the party of re-
publicanism." These are brave words for
the organ of the party which claims all the
decency, honesty and intelligence. The
course Of the Advertiser shows that cor
ruption has well nigh Slapped all
that was worthy of approval in
the Republican party. Other organs of
the same party in Massachus tits find
that Grant is inssnsible to the protests
which have been uttered against the Off
cious intermeddliDg of the Feeeral Office.
holders in favor of Butler, and some of them
are expressing the conviction that the "roar
Of the Long Branch surf" is very loud, since
the complaints against the interference of
Federal office-holders in the recent elections
have not as yet resulted in any harm to
those gentlemen. They seem to sit as firm
ly as ever in their seats, des pite the opinion
of many people that their duties do not re-
quire them to be quite SO active in political
matters. 1t is perhaps well enough that
Grant showed the c.oven-foot to The Repub-
licaps of Massachusetts. Some good may
come of this attempt to control the politics
of New England Safe in the manne. it
has been done in the South.

THE famous Dominican, Father Burke,
in the course Of q recent lecture on this
country at Cork, Ireland, sait: "America
to-day groans and laments by the voices Of
her statesmen, her philosophers, her writers
aad her press, over the sWful corruption Of
official life, and the dishonesty which they
publicly proclaim is found in every order of
commercial, social and political life. Moth
ing impressed one more than this-the uni
versal lament, day after day, in all the

THE Hot Springs (Ark.) Courier, 3
Radical paper, opposes the election Of Cen.
Grant for a third term to the Presidency, not
that it considers there is any dangerin Grant,
but there might be from his successor. This
makes the poiRt very nicsly, and it is about
as strong as could be expected from Radi-
cal Uaper. Such men as the editor Of that
paper would no doubt assist in Staying
Grants chances before a convention, in Or
der to set as much rotation in Office as
possible. That journal rather prefers Sen
ator 0. P. Morton for Grants successor.
The Memphis Register s2ys Morton has
been to Hot SpyiDgs this year, and 10
doubt has posted the Courier man on the
Toints.
