A Missouri editor pulled both barrels
of shotgun on a man who came up
stairs to Ii ok him, and, as was right and
proper, he double-leaded his article in
regard to the tragedy.
1t is said that Talleyrand constructed
an elaborate scale OF precedence at table
to use when he carved:
First-MOnsieur lie due, will your
grace do me the honor of accepting
some of this beef?
Second-Monsieur lie prince, shall l
have the honor of sending you some
beef?
Monsieur lie marquis, allow
me the honor OF offering you some beef?
FOurth-Monsieur lie cOmte, shall
send you some beef?
Fifth-Monsieur lie baron, will you

that a bridesmaid must necessarily
wear her present in church. The nov

CIVIL AND CRIMINAL CASES.

The tally sheet forgery case at Col
umbus is another instance where the
principal witness was an eX-peniten-
tiary bird and admitted on the stand
that three times previously he had per-
jured himself, by telling different
story in the same case.
The case was tried before Judge
Pugh, appointed few months since by
Governor Foraker, and whose time will
soon expire. The prosecutor, Hullng,
also a Republican, defeated Montgom-
cry, the man recently tried. Over a
year ago Montgomery and others were
indicted and tried for the same Offense,
the claim then being that the tally
sheets were forged in the Penitentiary
by convicts who sWore accordingly, eX-
pecting pardon therefor This attempt
proved a complete failure.
The recent and second attempt was
concocted at Chicago, whittier Gran
vile, the eX-convict, had wandered from
Columbus. The money reward agreed
upon by prosecutor Huling with the
Chicago gang was $1,000. One other
witness at least received money for tes
tifying against Montgomery. The trial
lasted two months ard the jury failing
to agree after several days, was dis
charged. The court could not force q
verdict in this instance.
Mr.. McSweeneys argument lasted
over two days and was most complete
and able. His remarks on the duties
of Jurors in criminal and civil cases are
so valuable that we give an extract
from the Enquirer's report:
"In every criminal case deem it i'm
portant in the opening to have the
attention of the jury directed to the
difference between civil and criminal
trial. To you, gentlemen, | should
turn and say that the difference has
been limited at by counsel who have
preceded me, but | trust that there
may be yet some words of elaboration
that will not be wholly out of place in
impressing upon you the differences
that do exist in the consideration of
the criminal and civil trials"
The speaker then went on to say that
in civil trials no presumptions prevail,
either one way or the other, but that in
criminal trials the defendant was
always presumed to be innocent until
he shall be shown beyond all reasonable
doubt to be guilty. He thon read from
Lawson on Presumptive Evidence"
showing that while this presumption
was supposed to exist, yet the jury
should be very careful in not allowing
their minds to lose sight of it.
Mr.. McSweeney then called the jury's
attention to the fact that i'll civil cases
all that was required by jury was to
weigh the evidence and find in favor of
the suitor, who has the preponderance
of the evidence; but in criminal cases
the jury are not to decide by the pre-
ponderance of the evidence, but must

The Republicans held their nomina-
tions on Saturday last, and the way
they did caterwaul each other was fun
for the Democrats. The important
fight was for Justices of the Peace, the
candidates being Esquires Raedel, Chas
II. Jones and Thomas Barnes, 'Squires
Raedel and Jones being for election
The fight waXed bitter, and Raedel was
called the Doodle candidate, and Char
lev Jones was known as the Pension
Mandamus candidate For a while it
was thought that Charley was the Cd
d-n us candidate. Their offices are
run on the bull-dozing principle, with
the aid of attorney RObb. These two
justices and attorney seem to run
law business of their own, on the prin-
ciple of Quirk, Cannon & Snap But
since the wonderful fight of Saturday
the firm is exploded, as Squire Raedel
is defeated and young Barnes is the
successful candidate.
But though we lose our good Squire
Raedel we still have Mandamus Char
lev, who will continue to enlighten any
of the Canton attorneys who come
down to try cases before him, mandam-
us or no mandamus.

There, forging the Thirteenth ward
tally,sheet, and when you come to that
conclusion you have found us guilty

Mr.. McSweeney then read from third
Greenleat, which contained the old
Latin maxim that at is better to err on
the side of mercy than upon the side of
justice;" that it is better to adhere to
the rule that you must convict beyond
all reasonable doubt. 1t is better that
you apply this rule, says the law, and
adhere to it, even though ninety-nine
guilty men should escape by an adher-
eDce to that principle.
He then read an extract from the
same authority which showed that the
jury, in the consideration of the case,
must not lump the evidence and decide
that it, beyond a reasonable doubt, con
victs the defendant, but that each sep
arate fact must be weighed, and to
which this rule applies. You must ap.
ply the same rules to each and every
circumstance in the link that you pro
pose to put in your chain to bind this
defendant. Now, sirs, these are prin-
ciples that it is better to err upon the
part of mercy; it is better to acquit
than to convict unless the proof be be.

crime did not even wait the coming of

does not grow weaker with time. No,
no; as the moss of ages has grown upon
it, it is more sacred and more endear-
ing No amount of chances, however
great the chances are that the party
be guilty, will do to overturn this great
principle; that chance is his.
Counsel then referred to a case in the
Eighth Ohio State Reports, from which
he read at length the charge of an able
Judge on the question Of reasonable
doubt. He then spoke again of the diff
ference between the amount of testi-
mOny necessary in criminal cases and
in civil cases. In civil cases the pre-
dominating rule applies instead of the
absolute rule, but in criminal cases you
must find that the defendant is guilty
beyond a reasonable doubt. 1t would
not do in civil cases to require the alb
solute rule; life would be too short;
the sails of commerce would flap
idly and rotten in the harbor.
