Wear White Uuderclothing.

Tho Herald of HaM recommends
white underclothing as not only more
healthful, but on account Of its not ra-
dating the heat of the body as some
other colors do Another strong inoen-
tive is the avoidance Of possible poison
ing, resulting from deleterious dyes
The Journal Of Chemistry gives an in.
stance Of the poisonous effects of All
line colors upon the skin in the expo
rience OF gentleman Of Bayfield,. He
had few days previous purchased some
new undershirts Of cotton, colored with
various tints, among which aniline red
predominated In short time after
putting on the garment a peculiar erup
ton ofan irritating nature appeared on
the body covered by the cloth. The
effects were not merely local, but to n
considerable extent constitutional, pain
and uneasiness being experienced 10
the back and lower extremities. Tn
proof that the eruption was caused by
tho dye colors, it may DO stated that a
portien OF the garment about tho upper
part of the chest was lined with linen
on the under side, and whenever this
came in contact with the skin no erup-
ton for redness occurred. 1t is not proba-
bic, the Journal remarks, that the mum.
Der of persons is large who possess such
idiosyncracies of constitution az to be
easily poisoned by dye colors, but that
there are some does not admit of a
doubt.

The Illegal Jury at Kingstrce.

The legal .po int. involved in the re-
cent jury question at kinSstrcc is Sd
important and interesting to tho profes
sion throughout tie State, that I ap
prehend it would be interesting to state
the facts more fully than has been done
The jury law providc: that "thcra shall
be appointed by the Governor, and con
frmed by the Senate, one officer for
each county in tho State, to be named
and designated jury commissioner.
who, with the county auditor and chair
man Of the board of county commission
ers, shall constitute board of iury
commissioners for the county" Also
that "the board of jury commissio ners o f
each county shall once in every year,
during the month Of January, prepare
list Of such inhabitants Of their re-.
spective counties, not absolutely exempt
as they may think well qualified to servs
as jurora, being persons of good moral
characer, of sound judgement, and free
from all legal exceptions" &c. In tho
County Of Williamsburg, during the
month of January last, when the jury
list was prepared, the offers of jury
commissioner and county. auditor were
hold by one and the samo individual,
so that there were but himself, holding
these two Offices, and the chairman of
the county commissioners to prepare the
list and draw the jury for the late term
of court. After motion and learn.
ed argument thereon by Mr.. Dozier, Of
Georgetown, judge Green held that the
act of preparing the list of such person n
as were qualified to serve as jurymen
as contradistlnguished from a ministerial
act, was judicial act and required not
only majority, but tho presence aud
concurring judgement Of every designa
tel member of tl.o board; that if two
could perform the required sorvico as a
board, it you'd only bc necessary to 60
one step further and hold that tho Gov
ernor might appoint the chairman
Of the county commissioning to be the
jury commissioner and county auditor,
and thus this one man would be the
board, and perform all the duties roquir
ed, He held that there was consider
able and bimportant difference between
the act of preparing the list, which is
judicial, as stated, and tho ministerial
act Of drawing the jury after the list i.
prepared. In Che latter case he intima-
ted that he would hold that majority
of the board was sufficient, while in the
former he did not hesitate to hold that a
