To Jud ze of ciser.


Whether or not CIDER is an intoxicating
liquor, aud whether the sale oft Is illegal
without the procurement Of a license under
the act Of May 10. 1857, are questions that
are soon to be decided by the Supreme Court
of Pennsylvania.
The test case comes from Warren county
where Charlie, Rcyburg, Of the Village o.
Sheffield, was arrested for selling cider with
out a license, and placed on trial on Decerl-
Der 9, 1857. In his charge to the jury the
trial judge said.
There is no evidence in these eases that the
article sold was Intoxicating; there is no evi.
dence that it had that effect upon any one
who partook Of il, or tina: it was anything
other than the pare sweet juice Of the apple.
And we are compelled to say tina, there is
NO evidence in the case npon which the de-
fendant can be convicted under The provis-
ions Of the act Of iss7. Therefore We direct
a verdict for the defendant.
The jury acquitted I.eyburg. but the bis.
trict Attorney, not being satisfied with ;hs
result ofthe trial. carried the case to the su-
preme Court. and that tribunal IS expectedt to
render a decision within a few weeks. If il
should be determined that cider is i~ntoxica-
ting its sale by unlicensed persons will have
TO cease.
