A SCOTTISH criminal trial is model
of fairness and deliberation. The ac-
cused is in good time served with a very
precise indictment, along with list of
the witnesses to be used in evidence
against him. AT the trial the jurors are
chosen by ballot, and each is furnished
with printed copy of the Indictment,
with paper, pen and ink to write notes
OF evidence as it proceeds. The trial
begins by the Clerk of the Court read
ing the indictment, by which means the
exact nature of the accusation is openly
and clearly defined, and there is no need
for heightened predatory harangue by
counsel for the prosecution. The in
dictment being read, the evidence is at
once proceeded with. ANY one can
compare this precision with what occurs,
and is occasionally complained of, in
England. A Scottish Jury may give
verdict of guilty, not guilty, or not prov
en-, this last alternative being adopted
when the evidence appears to be incom-
plete. There is no such alternative in
England. In English criminal proceed
ure the jury consists of twelve men, who
must be unanimous in their verdict of
guilty or not guilty; when not being
able to agree, after hours of wrangling
together, they are dismissed, thereby
occasioning a new trial. In Scotland
the thing is conducted more in accord
ance with human nature. The jury is
composed of fifteen men, who, if not
unanimous, may decide by a majority,
such as eight to seven, or possibly four
teen to one; by which means Juror
with twisted notions, resolved on being
singular, as often happens, is unable to
thwart the ends of justice. The decision
by a majority is accepted without de-
muir. In the trial of civil cases, a lati-
tude is also allowed. The jury consists,
as in England, of twelve men; but if
they have been in consultation for three
hours a majority of nine is sufficient for
a verdict. If after nine hours there is
not majority of nine, the jury may be
dismissed. These Scotch arrangements
seem to be in all respects more rational
than the practice prevalent in England
and Ireland. No one ever heard of a
miscarriage of justice, civil or criminal,
in Scotland, owing to decisions by a ma
jority. The accurate and impartial
method OF summoning Scotch Jurors,
special and common, in itself merits
commendation. Albany LdW Journal.

When to Feed Corn for Fattening
Hogs.

THIS question has been asked and
answered many times with VARYING re-
suits, according to the breed, the care
and attention, and shelter, time of year,
etc. Store hogs in healthy condition
and of good breed should lay on pound
of additional weight for every five and
six-tenths pounds of merchantable corn
fed to them, and will do it on the aver
age, with reasonable care. When they
do not do it we think there is q defect
somewhere.
If the above statement, which in our
experience we have verified, be true, one
bushel of corn-a part meal and fed as
slop, and part, all the animal will eat,
in the ear or shelled, changing frequent.
ly-should make ten pounds addition to
the weight. Ten bushels of corn will
then represent 100 pounds in pork.
The following conclusion is then
reached: Itpays, when corn is worth
thirty cents per bushel, to convert it in
to pork when it sells for SO per 100
pounds, as the manure will abundantly
pay for the care when properly saved.
So when corn is forty cents, pork
should sell at $4 per 100 pounds; corn
at fifty cents, pork So; sixty cents, pork
SO; corn seventy-iye cents, pork should
be sold at $3.50. When corn is worth
$1.50 pork must sell at S15 per 100
pounds. If the pork sells for less than
is represented by the corresponding
price Of corn it is fed at a loss; Il
more, the advance is proft--in each
case regarding the manure as pay for
the trouble.
Fattening is accomplished most prof
itably as the cool weather of autumn
advances, the animals having plenty of
water or mud in which to roll when they
choose, with good shelter and warm
quarters in which to lie. The feeding
place should be kept clean, and corn in
the ear or shelled fed night and morn
ing, as much as they will eat up clean,
and slop of meal at noon, with pure
clean water night and morning. The
fatter they become, the closer their
quarters may be. In the early stages of
fattening they need room for exercise,
with wheat bran, charcoal and sulphur
occasionally to keep them in condition
and increase the size of bone and mus
ole, for when quite heavy they need only

How a Dog Bought His Dinner.

But II you are looking for downright
intellect, call on the pointer dog. II is
safe 10 assert that the pointer has mind
enough for anything. He is far more
human than the monkey, and, we cheer
fully acknowledge, far worthier Of the
relationship. Why, look at JeG-every-
body knows Jeff-Dr. Mattaner's liver
eolored pointer. The dog carries notes,
goes for the horse and buggy, goes for
beef and fetches ice regularly Besides
all this, JEFF has many accomplishments
that make him finished dog. Would
anybody deny Jef7s intellect Hardly
Why, last week JEFF was sent for ice.
and what did he do? He started with
a towel, in one corner of which the
nickel was tied up. JEFF saw that nickel
put in, and Immediately temptation as

and beef was always cash. Now watch
The dog. He reasoned. He labored un-
der the temptation until he reached
Huif' s corner, near the old house, and
then he yielded. Down in the dirt he
crouched, and after a tussel got the knot
united. What next? Il would never
do to carry that nickel into Corput's. 8.
He reasoned again. He buried the
nickel, carried the towel in, received
the ice and came out. not for the nickel.

Doctor must be left under the impress
sion that the nickel had gone for ice,
and he was. The ice was carried to
the office, and JEFF came back like a
flash, secured his cash, galloped on
ward to the beef stand, and in few
moments was observed homeward bound
with his dinner. he was not afraid to
carry it home. He reasoned that the
doctor would suppose some one had
given it to him. This is vouched for by
three witnesses. 49, Macon (Ga.) Tele-

A Mexican Market.

The market furnishes an abundance
of eggs, chickens, cheese and milk. Fish
can most always be had, being brought
from the Santiago River, twenty miles
distant. A nice chicken can be bought
for real and medic (1S 3-4 cents)
and dozen of eggs for the same. The
cheese mostly used is called panda, and
comes in the form of small cakes, is
white and soft, and eaten when freshly
made. Milk is brought into to town on
the backs of animals, and is plenty and
cheap. There Is a belief that it is dan
gerous to drink it in any quantity and
clear; that if glass of it be drank, and
the person becomes excited or angry,
the chemical afiinities of the milk and
blood are such that poisOni is produced
that creates immediate death. Flour
sells for II cents per pound. The amount
used is considerable, Notwithstanding
that tortillas, or corn-cakes, are ne
cessity in every family. The bread and
cakes are all furnished by the baker.
The bread is made in the form of rolls,
which are sold at four cents each. OF
the sweet bread, there is great variety,
and each family, in purchasing, pro-
cures the assortment. 1t is made into
small cakes of different shapes, and sold
at from one to three cents each.
The entire ignorance of the value and
use of stoves of course necessitates a
simplicity in the art of cooking, and the
excellence of the production of the CO.
cinera is very remarkable, when this is
considered. There is not stove in use
in Topic. The original antique furnace,
that has been in use from the time of the
Spaniards, is still cherished as superior
to any modern innovation. 1t is simply
of brick, of convenient height, with an
opening on top to contain charcoal,
which is the only fuel used, and on top
of which the cooking utensil is placed.
An opening underneath furnishes draft.
All the cooking utensils are made by the
Indians from clay. They are all glazed !;
some ornamented with colors, and are
cheap but frail. They are of all sizes,
from spoonful up to ten gallons. They
are brought into the towns on the backs
of Indians and donkeys, packed in
crates, and are offered for sale about the
Plaza on Sunday. This is an important
industry, as all families must use more
or less, and the constant breakage Great
ing continual demand.-Cor. ALta-
