THE ST. CLAIR TRIAL.

The Case Submitted to the Jury-The
Jury Find Verdict Of Murder in the
Second Degree.
Yesterday afternoon the case of Rob-
ert ST. Clair, accused of the murder Oh
Patrick Tuliy, at Big Meadows, on the
2Sth Of last Jaiy, was submitted to The
Jury. The defendant came into court,
accompanied by his wife, who was
heavily yelled, and took his accustomed
seat. When the jurors names were
called, John Byrnes, the first juror &C
cepted in the case, stated in behalf of
the jury that they had been informed
by the Sheriff, that on last Sunday, one
of the jurors had conversed with an
outsider while they were at dinner.
The jury desired that the matter should
be investigated as they were confident
no such conversation occurred. The
COURT did not think it worth while to
order an investigation, as he was dis
posed to believe the jury, that no such
conversation took place.
The Court then proceeded to charge
the jury, giving first those offered by
the plaintiff, then those offered by the
defendant, and lastly those given by
the Court on iSs own motion.
At $50 the jury retired to deliberate
on the case, the defendant was remand
ed to the custody Of the Sheriff, and
the crowd dispersed,
THE VERDICT.
At $40 the jury, after being out
three and a half hours, informed the
Sheriff that they desired to be taken
into court, and the jury filed out OF the
iuryroom into the courtroom. The
Clerk called the names of the jurors,
after which the Clerk said Gentle
men of the jury, have you agreed upon
verdict" John Byrncs as Foreman
of the jury, responded 1--WE have. "
The Foreman then handed the Judge a
yiege of paper, which he scanned care
fully and then called counsel to look at
it. The Judge handed the paper to the
Clerk, who read
"In Fourth Judicial District Court
Of Nevsda, in aud for Humboldt county,
State of Nevada. plaintiff, vs. Robert
ST. Clair, defendant; we the jury herein
find the above named defendant, Robert
st. Clair, guilty OF murder IN the second
degree, with recommendation to the
mercy Of the Court"
The verdict was signed by all the
jurors.
The defendant looked pale as death
when the jury announced that they
had agreed upon verdict, knowing
that his fate depended upon the If find
/ ing This suspense lasted while the
Judge and counsel were examining the
paper.
NJ. S. Bonnifiela, Of counsel for de-
feuse asked that the time for pronounc-
ing sentence and judgment in the case,
De put off as long as possible as they
intended to move for a new trial. The
Court then named Saturday, October
2nd, at 10 A. NJ, as the day and hour
for pronouncing sentence. The penalty
prescribed for murder in the second de-
gree is imprisonmentin the State Prison
from ten years to life.
We are informed that on the first
ballot the jury stood two for murder M
the first degree, eight for murder in the
second degree and two for acquttal.
Subsequently there were eleven for
murder in the second degree and one
for acquittal. Finally all agreed upon
the verdict above stated.

The Presidential Contest.

Never within our recollection has
there been less ground upon which TO
base a prediction as 10 vino will be.
The mex, President. or even who will
he the candidates Of the two leading
parties, at any tine so near the ap-
preaching election as at present. We
freely admit that We are at loss 10
say who will be the nominee Of the
Democratic party, or even who We think
should have it-not that we have no
choice nor that we do not feel deep
interest in the matter, but because We
DO not know who is likely to prove
the strongest man in the doubtful
. States. We presume the question in
both conventions will not be who will
make the best President, but who is
likely to carry the doubtful States?
For this very reason we have re-
Trained from expressing a choice. hav-
ing sufficient confidence 10 the party
to believe that it will not place man
. in the field tha, is unfit for the posi-.
ton, aud knowing that The nominee Of
; the party, whoevef be may b., will
receive hot only our support but tie
support Of the Democracy Of this
Stale.
Taking this view of the matter, we
shall depend upon the wisdom and
prudence of the convention 10 select
ing the candidate, await it's action
with patience and support its nominee
to the best of our ability though we
admit that we could support some OF
Tic rien spoken of with more spirit
than we could others. If we have q
! preference now ii is for Gen. W. S
Hancock. and We could perhaps sup.
port him more cordially than almos,
any ether man who is likely to receive
the nomination; but do not urge his nom.
ina,ion for the reason above stated.
We have No doubt as to who is the
strongest Republican, but we are no,
hunting a candidate for that party
aud hope that they will not nominate
their strongest man.

Cruelty to Animals.

Tho Morehouse Clarion of last
week has q very true and sensible ar
ticls on this subject. which it concludes
With an appeal to the Legislature to
pass . law for the protection of do
snestic animals from the cruelty Of
those who have their management.
There is and has long been such O
law upon our statutes. bot it is prac'
tically almost obsolete. as very few
persons are ever prosecuted for is
violation; in fact, none are ever pros
scuted except for cruelty to animal:
belonging to other persons.
Selfinterest should prevent a mar
being cruel to his own animal, but as
it docs not always do it. for the sake
Of humanity. there should be laws &c
pro,ecs poor dun animals from tht
inhuman cruelty Of barbarous owner:
and tes~sters.
