suit the opinions OF lawyers In whose
learning and Judgment they have conf
dcnce. But judges OF election oogbt
as certainly TO be cautious how they accept
opinions not given under the sanction OF an
oath or of official responsibility, as the basis
OF their action in so grave matter as the
dlsirancbisement OF citizens from tue priyl-
lege OF voting. II is not part OF the duty
devolted by law upon judges OF courts OF
justice TO give opinions on questions OF law
10 other than grand juries or persons or
bodies having like relations 10 their courts.
II given, such opinions are Dos official, have
moi the sanction OF an official oath, and
carrg no other authority than the moral
weight Of the authors OF them. The
defendants In this case, as judges
OF election, would have bad a right
10 call upon the Attorney-Gfneral OF
the State or the Commonwealth attor-
ney OF their corporation for his opinion on
questions arising before them: and such au
opinion would have come 10 them under
the sanction OF the official oath; but even
with such sanction IL would not have been
binding upon these judges Of election.
They are officers who must act upon their
Olths, their conscenceS, and their own re-
sponsIbIlty 10 the law. III they "neglect and
refuse TO perform their duty" with wrong
ful intent it is poor and useless shift TO
attempt to shelter themselves behind the
opinions, whether official or unofficial, Of
lawyers who advised them to do so.
Still the fact that these defendants did
seek and accept legal advice is an indca-
lion OF good faith, and is fact proper to
be considered, even II the advice which
they took misIed them into the commission
OF a penal offence.
With these remarks will leave the jury
to deal themselves with the question
whether the rejection Of the votes under
consideration was done in good faith or
with wrongful intent, and will only remark
that ii that question Is left in doubt by the
evidence. The defendants are entitled TO the
benefit OF the doubt.

the copy from Bcr;rand's "Nirginia" in

an aggregate face value of 1886, 900,

There will be rebate of S43, ,430 80,

693 %, but there are still many more
claims to be presented. An order has
been issued for the payment of divi-
dend Of five per cent. on all approved
claims, but beyond that the creditors
hopes of realization are not particularly

having their periodic scare over the re-
appearance of yellow fever. Two Or
three cases have been reported, it is
not known with how much reason, at

Notwithstanding the ravages of this
plague from season to season, little pro-
