The Juries of Old England.

There is very small chance in England
for murderers. During the year that |
have lived in the country, L do not re-
member q case in which n murder
trial has resulted in a verdict of the sec
ond degree. So far as | have observed
the jurits, in every instance Of convic-
ton, have found it murder, pure and
simple. There have been a few ac-
quittals, and two or three times men
ton has been made of extenuting cir
cumstances, with feeble commenda-
tons to mercy, which have rarely been
responded to by the government. In
fact, English justice appears to be Who'll
ly destitute of and tender side toward
them that have shed blood, and it is a
simple truth that whoever is once in
dicted for that offense would do wisely
to look on himself as hanged

OUR NEIGHBORS

A company of Light Infantry has
been formed in Hagerstown.
We found the following in the Bal
timore American's Maryland News
The Cumberland Valley Railroad
Company have concluded to extend
that road from Martinsburg to Win
chester, an additional distance of
twenty or more miles. Connection
will be made at Winchester with the
Valley branch of the Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad, opening up a channel
for trade that is considered of great
value.
The Hon. A. r. Boteler has been
invited by the Agricultural and Me-
chanical Association of Lynchburg,
Va, to deliver the annual address
at the Fair to be held in that city,in
October next.
Wild pigeons have made their APP
pearance in the vicinity of Hagers-
town.
New corn is selling in Hagerstown
at so cents per bushel.
The Hagerstown Herald says, we
understand the Cumberland Valley
r. r. Co., have put to work corp
of engineers, under Maj. Ives, to
survey line for railroad from
Martinsburg to Winchester, Va.
The distance between the two points
named, is twenty-five miles, and the
country through which the proposed
route is to run, is very fine section.
The engineers started on the survey
on Thursday.
Mr. Thomas Little, an aged gentle
man living at Hancock, was in Hag-
erstown, Md, on Wednesday last,
and received for his wife, Mary Lit
tie, draft from Dublin, Ireland, on
New York City for $4,000, a portion
of the amount bequeathed to her by
her brother, James Brady, who died
in Ireland about three years ago.
The deceased left about 100000 to
be divided between five heirs, his
wife being endowed with one.half of

A Card.

The manner in which / have been
called upon to allow my name to be
used as an Independent Candidate for
Circuit Judge, leads me to believe tn At
the people desire to have this office re-
moved from the arena of party politics
and placed as it properly should be,
upon more elevated and dignifed
plane. 1t is an Office ofsupreme digni-
ty and one of great responsibility
Life, liberty and property are, to con-
siderable extent, in the keeping of the
Court. The very peace and happiness
of society, its morality and safety de-
2ends largely upon the manner in
which Courts of Justice administer the
law. A Judge, therefore, should have
nothing to do with politics. 1t is an
Office which ever should be separated
from them, and thus kept pure an d I'M
contaminated by political bias, or in
huences of any character which might
affect its purity or indep en- dence. A
sorry day it will be to any people when
the ermine is made the reward of po-
liticalEservice, or made to subserve po-
itical ends. now say to my fellow
citizens of all shades of political opin-
ion, that if it be your pleasure to confer
upon me the honor, 1 will accept the
trust with full appreciation of its re-
sponsibilities, and promise you faith
full and impartial discharge of the du-
ties of the office, remembering, as l do,
it is the whole people who are to gain
or loose as the law is properly or i'm
properly administered, l now place
myself before the people as the Candi-
date, for the Office of Judge ofthis Cir
cult. Respectfully,
JAS. H. GROVE,
