How to reduce the expenses of
of criminal prosecutions by our State
courts is a question that engages the
attention of every one who thinks
anything of retrenchment in the pub
lie expenditures. One of our judicial
officers, speaking of this matter few
days since, remarked that q very large
proportion of the expenses would be
cut off by either repeating the law
making it a misdemeanOr to carry
concealed weapons, or increase the
punishment to imprisonment in the
penitentiary. BE says large proper
tion of these cases on the criminal
docket in some of the counties grow
out of carrying concealed weapons in
violation of law. Wouldn't it be well
to increase the penalty.

Revenue Raiders on the Tennessee
and Kentucky Border Again.
DELAYED Mails East Caused by the
Cold Weather.


CINCINNATI, Jan. A squad of
fifty revenue men under Capt. Burn
side have returned from a raid upon
the moonshiners in the border coun-
ties of Kentucky and Tennessee.
They report the destruction of over
fifty distilleries and the capture of
a large number of distillers. 1t is
thought the business is pretty well
broken up in that region.
