UNITED STATES COURT.


00moe u0oy ob0 AWoo~V0'
The United States District Court
com menced the January session yester.
day morning. There was large nun,
ber Of persons present, as IL was under
stood that the election cases would be
taken up for trial. Immediately after
the opening, the District attorney
called the attention Of the Court to the
fact, that the greater number OF cases
for trial were those charging violation
of United States laws at the last cleo
tion. He said that they were ten in
NUN Der, some of which had previously
been tried, but the evidence had been
40 conflicting that in each case that had
been submitted to a jury, they had disa-
preed. He was of the opinion that If
these cases were retired, the result
would be the same, and he thought
under the circumstances that the best
course was for the Government TO dis
continue them all
Ho said that he could not see any
possibility of a conviction in any OF the
cases, and in view OF the heavy eN-
pense which the trials would impose
upon the Government, he thought it
his duty to ask leave of the Court, 70
have nolle prosequies entered in all
the election cases.
Anthony Higgins, Esq, the assistant
attorney tor the prosecution, made q
brief address, in which he fully coinci'
ded with the District Attorney. Judge
Bradford said that he heartily endorsed
the action of the prosecuting attorneys,
and did not think that the counsel for
the defence would offer any objection.
Messrs. Lore and Sharpley for the
defence had no objection TO offer, and
were perfectly satisfied with the course
adopted by the District attorney. .
Immediately after the disposal OF
this business the Court adjourned un-
Til this morning.

He is called to sell rum; has the
evidence within him. A congenial

recommends him to the extent of a
thousand dollars. He is looked over.
He will do. He pays his money;
tor the ministry can be bought.
He puts his hand upon that DEVILS
document, rumseller's license, and
he goes out, regularly set apart by
the ordination, which means this:
"Take thou authority to tempt
men"
'Take thou authority to change
them into beasts"
"Take thou authority to stain the
streets with their blood"
"Take thou authority to desolate
homes, to break hearts, to ruin
souls"
"Take thou authority to mark
your way through the world with
all wick edness and when you stand
before the Eternal Judge-just show

A SAD SIGHr.-One of the most
distressing sights it has ever been
our lot to witness, was that of an
aged woman this morning. She is
given to indulging too freely in the
ardent, and in passing down the
steps at the head of the public land
ing this morning, fell in drunken
stupor. She was accompanied by
three-year-old child, who lowered
around its drunken relative. In
justice to our people, we will say
that the woman does not reside in
this city, but is a resident of an up
river mining town. The woman
and child were taken to hotel by
James Smoot.-CdU.
Perhaps she was resident of
Coalburg, where you advertise whis-
ky so zealously. We are glad to
note that the good Samaritan, Mr..
Smoot, is subscriber to the FREE
MAN.

Allow us to mildly suggest to the

ry that a man should be so drunk
that he will fall into gutter before
he is amenable to our corporation
ordinances. a man is drunk when
he has lost his sense of decency and
propriety Off he ever had iD, and
should be walked up to the Cap
tain's office to settle. Judicious en-
forement of the law will "straighten
things up powerfully" y Wetzet Mes

Advertising the cause and cry
ing down the effect, seems to con-
stitute considerable portion Of the
business of some of our exchanges.
BoTTLE-R. r. TRAcK-DEATH.-
The Ceredo Enterprise gives the
shocking particulars of the fate of
another victim. Mike Swim, after
receiving his money for a lot of
slaves, the fruit of his hard, honest
labor bought candy to make his lit
tie ones happy, and then bought
whisky as the law directs to curse
himself and family. The next
morning his mangled remains were
found on the Rail Road track, with
the candy and broken bottle.
SUGGEsTIoN.-We suggest that
the authorities that allow the inhu-
man traffic should have carried that
candy and broken bottle to the dis
tracted wife and little ones, and
wished them Happy New Year.
