A New Point for the Legal
Profession.

In the trial of Williamson for the
killing of Beard at the recent term
of the Circuit Court Of Lawrence
County, ]. B, Moore, Esq. counsel
for the defendant, made thres mo-
tlons, one after the other that
seemed to take the Solicitor, Court
and Attorneys by surprise. The
motions were as follows, (after the
evidence for the State and defence
had closed, he moved the Court:
lst. That the defendant be per-
mitted 10 make a statement Of
factsin regard to The charge against
him.
2nd. That he be permitted to read
a written statement in regard to
the charge against him.
Srd. That he be permitted to
make an argument or explanation
of the circumstances proved against
him.
These motions were severallv
overruled by Judge Speake; but
the argument of Mr.. Moore was
able and eloquent. We do not re-
member all the authorities he cited,
bu: he alluded in most graceful
terms TO Judge Horrigan of Mem
phis, who invariably permitted a
defendant to make a statement to
the jury, to the trial of Burr, in
which Chief Justice Marshall allow
ed the defendant to discuss ques-
lions before the jury, although rep
resented by able counsel.
To the trial of Wei ster for killing
Parkman, before Chief Justice
Shaw Of Boston, where the right of
defendant TO explain to the jury
lh" circumstances, proved against
him, traced to the common law.
He cited and commented on tie
following cases as we'll as we can
remember them:
State W. Wilson, 3 Hieskell, 232;
Regina vs. MaliRgs, s G. & T. 242;
Regina vs. Watkins, 8 U. & T. 243;
Regina vs.. Forst, l Mod. Sh. Trials,
II; People VS.. Thomas, 6 Michigan
314; Burr's Trial.
Bat it seemed the main reliance
OF the counsel, was upon our bill of
rights which secures to defendant
the right to be heard by himself
and counsel u either. How should
he be heard? Should the court die
tate to him what TO say? Or the
States counsel put into his mouth
the words to utter? Or shall he be
permitted to be heard!
The argument was able and in
genious and we publish our remem-
brance of the authorities cited Tor
benefit Of the legal prolession.--

The paper IS straw board of rather fine texture. It Is received in the or dlnary broad sheets, differing in no par tcular from those used for straU-board boxes or other similar work These sheets, as they come from the paper mill, are square, ana must first of all be cut to circular pattern. This is rapidly done on a large table with knife that Is guided by a radial arm that swings freely over the surface of the table from pivot at the center. 4 small disk is also cut from the center of the sheet to allow for the iron hub. Being thus re- duced to the required shape and dimen- siOns, the paper must now be converted from mass of loose sheets into a com pact, dense body, capable of withstand ing the tremendous crushing force to which it will be subjected in the wheels. This K accomplished in the following manner: Ten sheets are pasted together, one upon the other, makinCa disk about One-elghth of an inch thick. Enough sd .ddbtReeelleedf btRele dffsBa fsdB 4paEggsg pEggsgb bf6Gfn 6Gfn
 to a square inch. When removed the disks are hung on poles in a steam-heat- cd loft and left six days tO dry. Thicker disks are then made. each formed by Pasting together two or three of those already finished. These are pressed and dried as before, and the process is re- peated until block is built four inches thick and of about the specific gravity of hgnum vitp. After each pasting and pressing SIX days are allowed for drying, and when the block Is complete 1t is left III drying room until thoroughly sea- SOueQ. The next operation Is that of turning the paper blocks to fit the steel tires and iron hubs. This Is done with as much accuracy and m exactly the same manner as if the material worked on were iron or wood. The circumfer- ence IS turned to a perfect circle of the precise diameter required, bed or re- cess Is worked out for the web of tire to rest in, and the edges sharply defined. The block IS then painted and is ready for its place in the wheel

\ cABLEGRAM from London has the following in relation to tle land act and the work of the land commission: \ rumor is current in political circles that negotiations are atOot for the release of the suspects on condition that they will stand aloof and let the Land Act have a fair trial. Nothing has been decided as yet, but t is said that some of the sus- poets are inclined to say: "Yes, we will keep our hands of for a reasonable time, but we do not bind ourselves to any thing" The runner is credible, as the Govefnmeut would be glad of any ex- cuse to retract the step taken since Nr. GIadssone's speech at Leeds. It is yet tco early to give inal opinion of the work of tie Land Commissioner, for after all the real test of the Act must be made on the monster estates in the west and southwest Of Ireland, where tle famine occurs in bad seasons, and where there are thousands and thousands cf tenants paying from q to g yearly, to whom 25 per cent of their rents would be of little or uo benefit, yet on whose holdings the landlords have spent thous- ands on improvements. The Ccmmis- sion which opened in Ciarcmorris, the cradle of the agitation, on Monday, will have to deal with that phase of the land question which is purely characteristic of Ireland. The landlords are apprehen- sive. but arc awaiting a decision upon some of the well-manared estates in the west, before giving mp the fight.

Between a Sharks Jaws.
IPensacola Gazette.l


 Anthony Mcdonald, a sailor belong ing to the English ship Forest Rights was drowned on Sunday, October l6, while bathing near the Central wharf Being good swimmer it Is not known whether he was seized with cramps or was attacked by a shark. The mate of a vessel lying near went to his assistance as soon as 1t was known that he was in peril, but before reaching the spot the unfortunate youth had sunk ont of sight. The body was dragged for, but was not recovered until the next morn ing, when 1t was found tO be horribly mutilated by sharks. Deceased was lS years of age, a native of Liverpool and this was his first voyage. We are told that while a party ot gentlemen were viewing the body yesterday morning an immense shark-estiTate, tO be more than 15 feet in length--arose tO the sur face, and seizing the body instantly car -ied it under the wharf. Parties stand lng near took hold of the rope and after a tug with the monster they deprived him of his prey. This subsequent at- tack of the man-eater Is conclusive proc. that the unfortunate young man met an awful death in the vOraciOus jaws of a shark. His head, one arm and one leg were gone, while a large gash was visi- ble in his left side. This is the second death of the kind tLat has come to our knowledge within the year. The other was that of the mate oi a small vessel who was knocked overheard between here and Mobile a few months ago and who was seized by one of his legs and carried below in the presence of hls shipmates.

 When the Indians were on the war path, NadasH and his men protected the stock of Doc Stallo, and the life of Old MT. Moody, and their act in accompany ing the Indians to gather their cattle and crops is a very proper and just rec ognition of the debt of gratitude which they owed.

Charleston Chins.

The town of Charleston has grown to be perfect beauty spot and rs lmprOv- ing wonderfully. The streets are laid out in good shape, and trees have been planted in some parts of the city.
 In the last two months about thilty new houses have been built, some of which would be ornaments to a large city. The prvate residence of NIT. Katzenstein, on Main street, IS artistl- cally finished inside and out Messrs. Herrera X Co.'S store building, 30x1J feet has @ tin roof. and Mir. Herman Wel;scL's new business house, 27163 feet, has also tin roof, has a brick front, and Is the handsOmest structure in that little town. Many other fine buildings there merit mention.
 During the last thirty days five mill ion. pounds of freight passed through Charleston, consisting chiefly Of coke for the Bisbee copper smelling furnaces, and general merchandise for this and neighhoring towns.
 Mexican help costs S2 per day there, and scarcity of labOrers Is the only cause which delays the building of several pro- jected houses.
 The grading of the road bed for the railroad, on the Barbacomari, five miles from Charleston, has been stopped and the railroad men are likely to run a branch to that place
 The increase in real estate values can be seen from the fact that lots offered six months ago for S40, are now held at from S40O to SjO0. Nearly all the de- sirable lots have been taken up.
 The bridge across the river, connect ing Charleston with Millville is con- pleted. It is l60 feet long, and sub- stautial structure.
 Charleston wants hotel where peO- ple can be properly accommodated There are about 150 regular boarders from the mines and mills, besides a large transient custom Two stages and three buckbOards pass through the place daily, and the Chinamen reap all the benefit. The people there are anxious for better accommodations.

THE unprecedented manner in which the debt of this country has been re- duced. both in principle and rate of in- terest, will always remain monument to the integrity and economy of the Re publican administration. The National debt has been reduced in round num- bers a billion dollars from the highest point reached, standing now about one third of the grand total at the close of the war. The world does not afford any thing like a parallel to such financial achievement Without arguing the question whether so rapid reduction of ;he debt is wise or not, it Is fact it has
 cen accomplished without disturbing the business of the country, and without any perceptible diminution of the com forts or the progress toward wealth of the people.
