The Hamilton Case.

The Hamilton case was called in the
Circuit Court at Brandon last Thurs
day, whereupon the attorneys for the
defense moved for a severance of the
eases of Hamilton and Eubanks, and
insisted that Eubanks should be tried
first. The Court having sustained this
motion, and the lawyers for the State
being especially anxious to bring
Hamilton to trial at this term, and
realizing that if they went into a tria
of Eubanks first, the full term of the
Court would be consumed i'll his trial
SO that they could not get to Hamil-
tons case at all, who would then claim
bail on the ground that he could not
obtain speedy trial, entered a mol.
pros. as to Eubanks, and lIamiltOn's
ease was called and set for yesterday.
If he doesn't now ask and obtain a CON
tinuance, which many think he will
do rather than risk trial, the trial
will proceed.
By dismissal as to Eubanks
it must not lie supposed for a
moment that the State has abandoned
the claim that several persons aided
Hamilton in killing Roderick Gambrell:
The testimony of unimpeachable wit
nesses who saw the shocking affair is
positive that several persons were
present and participated, and the only
difficulty is to identify these men.
The great object of the State is to get
at the principal in this homicide and
try him. If the evidence on the trial
identifies the other parties, Eubanks
can be indicted again, if he is among
the number, and convicted.

The Pig Law Repealed.

After many attempts, and repeated
failures, the Legislature has passed
an act repeating sections 2901 and 1902
of the Code. Section 29O1 made it
grand larceny for person to steal any
Article over the value of ten dollars.
or cattle, sheep OrhOgs of any age. The
act that has just been approved, raises
the amount to twenty five dollars, and
strikes out all that part that refers to
cattle, sheep or hogs. This abolition
of the section so well known as the
"pig law" will annually relieve the
penitentiary of two hundred and fifty
cOnvicts or more. We are glad that
the law has been repealed. 1t will
serve as a factor to settle the much
vexed penitentiary question, and will,
in our Judgment, be the means to
returning the convicts to the care Ofthe
State.
Section POOP is so amended as to
make the stealing of any article under
the value of twenty-five dollars petit
larceny, extending the term of impris-
Onment from three to twelve month,
within the discretion of the court, one
hundred dollars remaininga as the maxi
mum fine.
1t is provided that this act shall not
affect pending prosecutiors.--Clarion
