Reform Of the jury system.

In passing the bill making the vote of
nine jurors sufficient for verdict m
civil cases the New Jersey Assembly has
taken q step toward an important reform
which ought to be made in every STATE
ofthe Union. The jury room is about
the only place where unanimity Is essen
tial to decision. In legislative and exec.
utiye bodies. on the Bench and in popu
iar assemblies, matters of the greatest
concern are decided by a majority or
two-thirds vote. The anomalous princi-
pie OF unanimity in the jury system is a
rene or the ancient common law for
whose retention there Is neither reason
nor excuse. The mischief which it
causes in civil suits by being productive
Oh delay. cost. vexation and needless in
crease OF litigation can hardly be over
estimated. In criminal cases the evils
resulting from it are IT'LL greater. In
evesy long trial the ends of Justice are
liable to be and often are defeated by the
oostinacy, stupidity or dishonesty OF one
or two jurors. This was conspicuiously
illustrated in the first star route rial, and
Il may again be illustrated in the pend
ing trial. When nine meu out of twelve
ma prisoner innocent or guilty it is
safe aad just to both the accused and the
people to accept the verdict us conclu-
sive. The principle of unanimity should
be abolished in both our civil and crimi-
nal Jurisprudence.-M Y. Herald.

Fredona Dornbach, stage manager of
the Geistinger Opera Company, now
playing an engagement at St. Louis, died
yesterday afternoon in Wabash sleeper.
soon after its arrival at the Union Depot.
From Dir. George Fl. Rice, the sleeping
car conductor, the following particulars
were obtained: Mr.. Dornbach took the
tssin at st. Louis on Wednesday even
ing, and at that time was in apparently
coed health, with the exception Of a
cold. When the train reached East st.
Louis he requested the porter to make up
his berth and soon after retired. When
the train reached Fort Wayne yesterday
morning, he arose and made his own
toilet. He complained of feeling badly,
however, and soon returned to his berth.
Before the train had reached Napoleon,
Conductor Rice, in passing the berth, had
his attention attracted by the heavy
breathing of the occupant. An examine
tion showed that Mr.. Dornbach's condf-
tion was serious, and he telegraphed to
Toledo to have physician at the train.
Upon the arrival Of the train here at 1:5O
p. m. DR.. Claypool was in waiting, and
upon making an examination found the
gentleman suffering from congestion of
the heart and lungs, and in critical
state, So rapid was the progress of the
disease that twenty minutes later he
breathed his last.

WAPAKoNETA. o.. Feb. "a tremeu-
dous Hood prevailed in this section. The
Auglaize river and its tributary streams
were far out OF their channels and COM
plefely inundated the surrounding bot
tom lands. The river was higher than
ever before known. The immense vol
ume OF water carried down fences and
destroyed small buildings that skirt the
banks. Vast damage was done to pro-
visions which had been stored in cellars
and basement.
YOUNGSTOWN. o., Feb. 4, 1863.--The
greatest excitement prevails here, The
Mahoning river broke up this morning at
five o'clock and overfowed its banks, in
undating q large portion Of the city.
From two hundred to three hundred fam
lilies were compelled to leave their houses
in boats, The water is six feet deep on
Mahoning avenue and Is rising with great
rapidity. Several houses show signs Of
floating away, and are watched with
great anxiety. Floating cakes of ice are
tearing away portions of buildings, tele-
graph poles and Lamp posts.
The town of Niles, ten miles west of
this place, is entirely inundated and great
excitement prevails. The rolling mills
there are all stopped and business gener-
ally suspended. There has been a con-
unuous rain since Saturday morning.
The fire department are giving assistance
TO families in distress, and they will
probably work all night. The weather
is colder, causing muck suffering among
those working in the water.
CLEVELAND, o., February 4. 1SS3.-The
great flood reached its highest point at
about noon to-day, when the river was
ten feet higher than at the ordinary stage
in places, and the fate covered with lum-
Der yards, elevators. iron works, ma
chine shops, -four mills, packing houses,
factories of various sorts and railroad
freight houses were more or less SUBJ
merged. The water is receding tonight
but the extent Of the damage cannot be
ascertained for several days. It is esti-
mated that %. 000, 900 feet of lumber and
15,000,000 shingles have been washed
from the lumber yards. The Valley
Railroad is several feet under water for
miles, and its bridge near Weighlock has
been swept away. The New York,
Pennsylvania and Ohio old freight house
is four feet under water, which reaches
within few inches of the floor of the
new freight house. The cars are under
water to the floors. The company re.
fuses freight for the present. About 80
horses which were stabbed at the lumber
yards stood all night in water up to their
breasts. They were rescued with diff
Guilty to day, having to swim several
hundred feet to reach place of safety.
