On the 10th of April last / sent for Dr. r.
Nj. Blodgett of Boston, He came, and after
an examination pronounced my case the
most hopeless he had ever witnessed. My

no picture could possibly indicate how mush

INFLUENCING JuRIEs.

OF all the tribunals constituted for jul
dlcial purposes that which should be
most carefully and jealousy guarded
against any and all extraueous lnllu-
ences Is the jury. By extraUeous in
huence Is meant any influence save that
which might spring naturally from a
rational and contemplative review Of the
evidence permitted by the legal restric
tions to be produced before them. The
personnel OF jury Is composed OF men
engaged in the active pursuits of life,
unaccustomed to the intricacles of the
law or the subtle reasoning of advocates
and bringing with them into the box all
the unguarded emotional feelings of
every day life. II Is not considered adj
visable that man of great and Over-
powering character or popularity should
sit upon the trial of case, rs he would
DO apt to carry with him too great pro-
portion of the others, whose confidence
in him was sufficient TO allow him TO do
their thinking for them. Nor would it
DO entirely fair to allow notorious
sooiier of religion To DO tried on crimi.

nor even mete out common Justice
to one who had been guilty Of the Of
tense, even though the Indictment I'M
der which he was being tried had no
reference to any act or words on the
part of the accused.
But the most curious instance of ap-
peal from the verdict of Jury, or
rather tho Judgment thereon, is now be-
fore the supreme court of kansas. A
lawyer, against whose client verdict
had been obtained, ascortained that
upon retiring for consultation as "a
their decision, one of the jurymen
"gifted in prayer" had induced the rest
to allow him to open their proceeding
with praying, and the defeated advocate
moved to set aside their verdict on the
ground that tone long practioed in
welding this subtle influence can play
upon the feelings OF his weaker brothe,
and the more gifted in prayer the per
son is, the more powerful his lnHuenc,
will be-" is difficult to say what The
decision OF the supreme court will be
but absurd as 1t may appear to some
there is more in bIs plea than meets thu

the workings OF the jury system. Willis
a verdict should not be set aside, per
haps, for such cause tho practice
should not be tolerated and for the very
reasons assigned by the appealing law
