might be mentioned without oHense,
and first discussed the jury laws
showing that trial by jury was SO
dear to our ancestors because it
shielded the people from oppressive
Government.
Discussing this topic with great
earnestness, Mr.. Thurman asked
was the demand to return to the old
well-trodden paths of justice and
legal procedure matter to fire the
Northern mind and set all the
demagogues north of Mason and
Dixon's line declaiming against the
designs of the Democratic party :?
He analysed the laws proposed to
be repealed and argued that they
were in the utmost degree oppres>
siye as they shut out intelligence
from the jury box and punished
those who could not take
the iron-clad oath because they
had given a cup of cold water even
to any one who had opposed the
Government. If the law was justi-
fable in war it was not so now, at
time when all should unite in the
pacifcation of the country and re-
store harmony everywhere. Pass
ing from the subject of juries, Mr.
Thurman spoke of the subject of
elections, and then freedom from
political interference and the neces-
sity and justice of repeating the
present laws, which were the instru-
mentalities of corruption and fraud.
HOUSE. fFe
The House resumed, in the morn
ing hour, the discussion of the bill
to amend the statutes relating to
the removal of cases from State to
United States Courts, and Mr..
Orth, of Indiana, continued and
concluded his argument against the
bill, and was followed by Mr.. Nc
Lane, Missouri, in support of it.
The pending motion was to lay
the bill on the table, which was
negatived. The previous question
was then ordered, with the subse- |
quent agreement that this order
would only apply to the first sece
tions of the bill, which provides
that gold coins shall be one dol
lar piece, or unit, of 25 $40 grains,
and quarter eagle, $3.50, three
dollar piece, an eagle and a double
eagle. The section was agreed |
to. The question recurred on
the second section, which provides
that the silver coin shall be a dol
lor or unit, half dollar, a quar-
ter dollar, and a dime; that the
weight of the dollar shall be 4129
grains Troy, the weight of the half
dollar 12a grains, and the weight of
the quarter and the dime one-half
and one-ifth respectively of that
of the half dollar. Also that
the silver dollar in the
Treasury, when reduced in weight,
by natural abrasion, more than one
per cent shall be recoined. This
section, after some discussion, was
agreed to, and the third section,
which provides that any owner of
silver bullion may deposit the same
at any mint, to be formed into bars
or into standard dollars of four hun
lred and twelve and a half grains,
for his benefit, was taken up, and

THE public will not sanction the
authorities in a narrow course of action
towards the Geological Garden. To
give the water is as little as the city
can do for great attraction that brings
people here by the thousands, and is of
decided pecuniary advantage to the city.
Should the Geological Garden ever be-
come a dividend paying investment, it
will be proper for the city to ask pay for
the water used, but under present cir
sumstances such course would be in
bad taste.
