ANSWERS TO CORRESPONDENTS.

Mr.. EDITOR: In order that we
may learn as we live, would like to
ask you few questions.
1. What are jurors allowed per mile
and per day while attending court?
2. Are they paid at the regular
meeting of the County Commissioners?
(b) Can the County Commissioners cur
tail their fees?
3. How long can the court hold a
chung" jury?
4. How many degrees are there for
which person may be sentenced by
the court, and what are the circum.
stances governing each degree?
Yours truly, PRAIRIEToN TODD.
ANSWERS.
l. Ten cents per mile, reckOned to
and from their homes, and 50 for each
days attendance.
,. When the regular meeting of the
Commissioners occurs within q few
days after the term Of court, yes. II
there is an adjourned term of court and
the regular meeting of the Commis-
sioners does not occur for some time af-
forwards, the Board holds a special
meeting for the allowance of witness
and jurors fees. (b) The fees are
fixed by statute and cannot be cut down
by Commissioners.
3. As long as it pleases. The mat
ter is entirely within the discretion Of
the court.
4. AS it stands this question is rath.
er vague. In case of homicide-which
we presume is referred to-there may
be murder in the first or second degree.
or manslaughter in the first, second,
third or fourth degree. The court has
nothing to do with fixing the degree
of guilt. This is matter that rests
entirely with the jury and it would
be impossible to define the "circum-
stances governing each degree

ley railroad has supplied a long fel,

Even those. who did not willingly paw
the tax arc delighted every time the
whistle sounds.
Hurrah for tho town Of Abbcr,lle
It. is to be hoped hat she will get a
railroad some how, from some place.
Magnolia has no objection to Abbeville
getting the proposed new road provided
she constructed it insome other way than
by taxing the people along the line.
Our people have had quite enough ex-
periencc in this matter and many are
determined to resist n repetition of the
imposition for all time to come.
Yes the poor farmer must foot oil the
bills. He pays the freight on the mcr-
Giant goods. Pays his clerk hire and
store rent, and town tax The revenue
tax and other expenses. Gives the mer-
chant a clear profit and pays a tax to
build Il railroad for the town.
No wonder the country farmer is
poor. He feeds and clothes every BODY
and goes half fed and clad hi,uself and
has no n to blame but himself.
