Tho Law on Gaming.

We reprint few Sections of the gaming law,
giving the amendment to Sections 3, and Z, which
was passed in 1870. Every person is supposed to
know the laws of the country under which he
lives, unfortunately few do thoroughly understand
them, hence the trouble of the other evening.
The following is an extract from Chapter NNNlN,
Of the Penal Code;
|. Whoever by playing at cards, or any other
game, wins or loses any sum of money or thing of
value is guilty Of gaming.
.. Whoever is guilty OF gaming shall be pun
ished by fine, not exceeding one hundred dollars,
and by Imprisonment at hard labor, not exceeding
sixty days.
3. Whoever shall by playing at cards or any other
game, or by betting on the sides or hands of such
as do play, lose any sum of money, or thing OF
valne, and shall pay or deliver the same or any
part thereof, may sue for and recover the money
or value Of the thing so lost and paid delivered,
from the winner thereof.
G. In case the person losing such money or
any thing of value shall not within three months
after such loss in good faith and without COLLISION
prosecute with effect and without unreasonable
delay for such money or other thing of value, il
shall be lawful for any constable or other officer
or person to for and recover, treble the value
of such money other thing. with full costs OF
suit the one half of which shall go TO the person

there is much of interest pictorial and typograph-

crater of Kilauea by Jules raverner; it is highly
effective. Then there Christmas designs, grave
and gay; and a number of California sketches. In
