sion. Last week was devoted en-
tirely to the trial of criminal cases;
and, as many of them were impor-
tant and closely contested, the dock.
ct was not cleared when the week
closed and the jury was discharged.
Ben Cole, charged with murder,
committed about ten years ago, was
found guilty, without capital pun
ishment.
Pink Coleman, under a similar
charge, was found guilty of man.
slaughter and recommended to the
mercy of the Court. In this case,
one year having elapsed between
the commission of the alleged crime
and the finding of the bill, new
trial was granted; whereupon the
District Attorney entered mol.
pros, and filed an information charg-
ing defendant with manslaughter
and setting up flight to stay pre-
scription.
During the week, the State lost
but ono case; hence, the Peniten-
tiary will secure several valuable
laborers for some years to come.
This week has been devoted to the
trial of civil cases, and the week
will likely be consumed on the
docket.

Valuable Facts from a Safe Source,

The affairs of this country have
become so extended that it is only
by carefully prepared synopsis in
the form of figures that one can hope
to understand what is really going
on. Hon. A. r. Spofford, the Lii
brarian of Congress, is the only man
who has the facilities at his command
for collecting complete National
statistics and he does it with the
greatest care and accuracy. His
latest issue, "The American Treas.
ury of Facts" has been sent us by
Messrs. FL. FL. Warner s. Co., pro.
prietors of the valuable Warner
Safe Remedies. This book is a min
allure cyclop8dia in itself, containing,
in addition to a vast amount of ma
tional matter, about all of value that
has transpired in this country during
the past year and reflects credit
upon the compiler as well as upon
the enterprise of Messrs. Warner &
Co, in selecting it.
