Judge Powers in his charge to both
branches of jurors urged upon them
the importance of economy by the
abreviation of their time of service in
so far as it may meet the Importance
of the matters brought before them
and the interests of the State may re-
quire. He also pressed upon the petit
jurors the Importance of their agreeing
upon a verdict in all matters brought
before them for discussion wherein,
in their conscience, they could do
equal justice to all parties concerned.
Following the charge to the jurors
came the calling of the assignment of
causes for trial. OF the fourteen cases
set to the jury on the day of assign
ment, only two on the calling of the
docket, Boynton V. Mobiles, aplt., and
Perkins v. West, aplt., were fixed for
the consideration of the jury.
The court took a recess till 2 o'clock
p. M, during which interval the men,
bers of the bar held a meeting and
voted to request the court to adjourn
such business Of this term as might be
without detriment to the parties in in
terest, or the State, till the I'd Tues
day of January.
On the assembling of the court in
the afternoon the old low and chancery
docket was called, and nearly the en-
tire list of causes thereon were dis
posed of either by continuance, settle
ment or otherwise.
The calling of the old docket was
closed about 4 o'clock and there APP
no case ready for trial the
court adjourned until 0 o'clock We'd
nesday morning.
On the assembling Of the court this
morning it was announced that the
Boynton case had been settled and as
the remaining case vas not ready for

Country Roads.

EDITOR LAMoILLE News The sug-
gestions of "Viator," in your issue of
November oath, 1880, seem to me
good, except the seeming implication
that a stone-crusher is a necessary
preliminary to matchmaking u coun-
try roads. In q rural district familiar
to the writer, the more important
roads are being gradually macadamized
by the simple and comparatively mex
pensive process of spreading upon the
road-bed the small stone from the
fields to the depth Of eight to twelve
inches, being careful to level and pack
them with a heavy hammer, breaking
a few of the largest when convenient
and covering with gravel or tenacious
soil. Though a road made in this
way is not quite equal to a r%ace-course
for fast driving, it is vastly superior to
deep mud for drawing heavy loads
upon, and can at any time be covered
with finely powdered stone, when the
era of stone-crushers for ordinary
towns does come. P. W. L.
