views, and seemed anxious for sll the
evidence which could constitute part OF
the res gestae He even went 50 far as to
permit one Of the witnesses for the de-
fence to state why he did nos vote upon
that day. Mr. Cooper, one of the attor-
neys for the state, objected to the ques-
tion, saying that it would only have a
tendency to create partisan feeling,
which he was anxious to avoid in order
to get substantial justice. But the court
said it vas part Of the res gestae, and was
admitted.
The whole defence In this case, was to
create partisan feeling, and get dis
agreement Of the jury. This they
managed to do by repeatedly asking
questions to which the attorneys for the
state we're obliged to object, and which
the court ruled out; but they had their
desired effect. For learned attorneys to
ask questions which they know to be

city, and, at the same time, have laid
himself open to commitment for

JUDsE Cullen has never impressed us
as having disposition to use his judicial
power IN this one-sided manner, and we
do not believe that he really intended TO
exclude necessary evi iencs from the con
siderstion Of the jury. AT any rate, the
jury possessed enough natural sense Of
justice not to follow the instructions
given frum the bench, but failed to reach
a verdict by reason OF disagreement -
