| HeSIo, tneh IN TOWN., was peddlng whisky
| by the drink at ten cents-that he had a
bottle in one pocket and glass in the
other, and that they had bought whisky
from him. Upon this information, Marshal
Swan made the arrest and found the bot
| tie and glass as stated, but when the trial
was had the colored witnesses retracted
The woman told lawyer Motley that she
had been intimidated by threats. But on
the stand she denied ever telling the
lawyer even this. A few of these witnesses
sent to the chain gang for perjury would
probably teach some of them the value of
swearing the truth. Our grand juries
ought to investigate this fragrant way
colored witnesses have of disregarding the
sanctity of an oath.

MANY farmers become discouraged with
their lot when they observed how men in
other walks of life accumulated wealth.
If this matter was looked at carefully it
would be found that the showing is not as
good as it appears. The men who make
great fortunes are the ones who come into
notice; but for every merchant who counts
his wealth hundreds of thousands, there
are hundreds Of other merchants who
have failed entirely. Now and then we
hear of a lawyer, or a physician whose
fees in few years amount to reasona
bic fortune; but for each of these there is
hundred who never know one month
where the money is to come from to paw
the bills for the next.
