A NEW SEAL.
The New Device Which AuthenticateS All

The New Device Which Authenticates All
Governmental Documents.
The new die for the great seal of the
United States. which was received at
the United States Department of State
on April 81, and has been used on COM
missions since then (the first on which
it was used being that of Mr.. Jordan.
the new Treasurer of the United States),
is only the third one accepted for and
used for the purposes designated bv the
law which ordered it in 1888, and which
readopted the design first ordered in
1882, since the latter date. The new
die which conforms more strictly to the
letter of the law designating what the
national coat-of-arms should be than did
its immediate successor, which was made
in 1841, and is more aristOcratic than
that of the first die made, all three of
which are now in the Department of
State, and which have lately COM
pared, cost, including the massive ma
hogony case. and the press for making
the impression on papers, and the die
dered full year ago, and was made by
Tiffany & Co., in New York. Its case
is five feet eight inches high, and about
half as wide and deep. The original
die had thirteen arrows in the eagles
talon. as the law expressly stipulated,
but when. in 1871, the old one having
become worn, a new one was made,
somehow it happened that only six ar
rows were put in the eagles talon.
Nevertheless, the seal was accepted and
used until the new one arrived, with all
the arrows the law required, on April
81. So now we have our national
culver full of arrows. But, better still.
the new seal can, by special arrange
ment OF the machinery, cause the
eagles head to turn in any direction a
treaty may require when its impression
Is to be stamped upon one. With the
old one great difficulty was often expe-
rienced in attaching our stiff-backed
national bird to cumbersome documents
such as a treaty. as it would sometimes

or north when he ought to fix his unter.

Motion for a New Trial.

Before Judge Taylor, yesterday, the attorney
for the l., B. & w. Railway Company, against
which verdict in favor of William G. White
head was returned last week, argued the motion
for new trial. It was claimed that the court
erred in admitting evidence concerning the
conduct of the section boss prior to the time OF
the accident, and also allowing to be submitted
letters of the superintendent of the road criti.
cising the boss relative to acts previous to that
time. 1t was further set up that the court erred
in instructing the jury as to the burden Of proof
being on the defendant, if at the time of the &C
cident plaintiff was passenger for him on de-
PENDANTS road; that it must be shown that the
accident occurred through unavoidable circum-
stances on the part of defendant The third
point claimed for new trial was the excessive
amount of the verdict. The court took the
matter under advisement.
