The grand jury of St. Landry has present
ed one jury system to the committee on con
stitutional revision. They require a break i'll
the present required unanlmity. All tho
grand juries of the State should join il this
demand, In Scotland nine can convict. IN
Germany ID tie acquits, seven to five rests the
decision with the Judge, and two majority
c~onvicts. In England the judge settles the
matter in his charge and the jury seldom dis
regards it. France and Belgium appoint
their jurymeu in secrecy, and the men who
have to serve know nothing about it until the
eve of a trial. The most intelligent men who
have interest in the country are selected and
there are few mistrials. In the United
States the jury system has drifted down until
it has become the hope Of the murderer aud
his refuge from the wrath of outraged com
munities.-B. r. Truth.

Perhaps some of our readers like to know
in what respect Chamberlain's Cough Rene,
dy is better than any other. We will tell
you. When the Remedy is taken AS soon as
d cold has been contracted, and before it has
become settled in the system, it will counter
act the effect of the cold and greatly lessen
it's severity, and it is the only remedy that wilt
do this. 1t acts in perfect harmony with la
ture and aids nature in relieving the lungs,
opening the secretions, liquetying the mucous
and causing its expulsion from the ali cells Of
the lungs aud restoring the system to IL strong
and healthy condition. No other remedy in
the market possesses these remarkable prop
critics. No other will cure Il cold 50 quickly.
