In order 10 still further accelerate
the present rapid increase in our cir.
culation, we offer TIM INTERIOR
Journal to new subscribers from
now until January let, 1881, for 81.
This will include the stirring events
incident to the nomination and cleo.
ton Of President Of the United
States, Of Congressmen, of a Judge Of
the Court Of Appeals in this district,
Of Circuit Judges, Commonwealth
Attorneys, Circuit Clerks, and other
important officers, and we promise to
keep our readers posted on them
as well as all other general events Of
interest TRANSPORTING during the time.
The sooner you subscribe the more
you will get for your money; so let us
hear from you at once.
THE advantage Of the laws delay is
aptly illustrated in the case Of W. q.
Terrell, who, in 1874, shot and killed
Harvey Myers, in Coyirgton. II will
be remembered that Terrell became
incensed at a question asked by Myers
during the trial Of a case, and went to
his office to bulldoze him into with.
drawing it. Myers said that he would
not be dictated to in such a matter,
and ordered Terrell out of his office.
Instead ofgoing. Terrell put on bel
ligerantair, and Myers attempted to ex-
pei him by force. and during the scuffle
the fatal shot was fred. The case
caused great excitement at the time,
as Myers was a lawyer Of high stand
ing, and but for the GOODNESS Of few
gentlemen, Terrell would have an
swered his crime before Judge Lynch.
After a number Of continuances, the
case was brought to trial and he was
given eight years in the Penitentiary.
The Court of Appeals granted a new
trial. which, also, resulted in a YER
dict of guilty, and the punishment
fixed at seven years. BY some means
or other, this judgment was set aside,
and now, after a period of five years,
a jury is found which pronounces him
innocent. IL was probably befuddled
by Judge McManama's instructions,
which were that if the jury believed
that Myers used more force than was
necessary to expel Terrell, then the
latter had the right 10 use any means
in his power for his protection, and it
must acquit him. 1t is sharp jury
that can decide just exactly how much
force shall be used in such case.

The District Of Columbia Supreme
Court has made an important decision af-
fecting the liability Of Express Companies.
Suit was brought against the Adams EH-

receipt given for the goods, and by the
ierms Of which they only agree to be liable
10 The amount Of $50 on packages not en-
pressly valued. The Court held that a
common carrier can not stipulate for ex.

Principle Of law forbidding common car
Ter to bargain for complete exemption
rom responsibility for a violation Of his |
uties in particular cases, also fOrbids him

made by him just before his imprisonment,
Blanuui compared the republic Of to-day

Itwould seem to be truth appreciable by
all and especially by professors of the healing
art that to remove the disease, not to allevi-
ate its symptoms. should be the chief aim OF
medication. Yet in how many instances dc
we see this truth admitted in theory, ignored
ach Filters is successful in so many cases
with which remedies previously tried were
Inadequate to cope, is attributable to the facl
that it is a medicine which reaches and re-
moves the causes OF the various maladies tc
which it is adapted. Indigestion, fever and
ague, liver complaint, govt, rheumatism, dis
orders of the bowels, urinary affections, and
other maladies, are not palliated merely, but
rooted out by it. 1t goes TO the fountain head
and it endows the system with an amount o
vigor which is its best protection against dis
ease.
