eddy prove a good thing for Savannah, and

Railroad companies are Just beginning
to receive instructions under order No
APP issued by the Postmaster General with
reference to railroad mail Railroad com
panies have heretofore been acting as
their own mail carriers, and the govern
ment has recently decided to put a stop
10 II. Railroads have been in the habit
OF trans porting mail for their cOnnec-
lions. For instance. instead of paying
postage on communication sent from
New Orleans to a railroad official IN Sa-
vannah, ii would be sent from New Or
leans in the regular railroad mail and
transferred to the railroad mail of con-
Meeting line, and brought on in that way
without paying any postage whatever
This new order puts stop to this, and
requires that all railroad mail going be-
yond the lines on which it originates shall
go through the regular mails and pay
the same rates OF postage. This does not
apply, however for railroad mail intend
ed for a station on the line upon which
IT originates. Uncle Sans receipts will
no doubt be considerably augmented as
the result of this order.

Patterson also says that. If the regular

the vicinity or happen to be present,
which list is furnished by the clerk"
Counsellor Patterson is again mistaken.
He seems to be as unable to tell the truth
as the Record is unableto state of its own
knowledge whether boat was stolen
or venerable old psrty's hogs gobbled
and sold. As matter of fact, the clerk
has nothing whatever to do with the
drawing Of talesmen, except to take their
names on q list as they are picked out by
the sheriff. Following is the law on the
subject-not as interpreted by Counsellor
Patterson, but as II appears In the big,
new, white book:
Sec. $50. Court may order jury forth.
with. II all persons summoned as grand
and petit Jurors do NOT appear before the
court, or if for any reason the panel of
the grand or petit Jurors is not complete
or If no Jury 10 drawt1fas above provided.
the court may order the sheriff. deputy
sheriff Or coroner To summon without de-
lay the required number of persons hav-
ing the qualificatiops.of jurors: and the

Sec. 457. Summons to complete special

rors shall be exhausted by the challenges
OF either party in any action, the Judge of
the court shall order tie sheriff, deputy
sheriff or coroner to summon without de-
lay sufficient number iof persons pos.
sesslng the qualifications Of jurors to
complete the number requisite for q Jury
in that particular case.
It will thus be seen that. the clerk doe.
not furnish list to the officer drawing
talesmen. and takes no part whatever in
thelr selection. 3~;.sss -,
Some time ago Patterson stated; direct
ly, that the clerk of court had swindlet
the county in the matter Of overpaid state
witness fees. We showed him that BIZ
had made false statement. But he hal
never acknowledged it.
In this case he spoke Of the ''clerk ol
the court and his fixed juries." W.
showed him that four officers. Or major
lty Of them, publicly drew the jury. 'Thel
he said it was the talesmen that the clerl
could get at. We have shown him tha
the clerk has nothing to do with the pick
ing out of talesmen. We now ask him Il
designate the jury or juries and name tn
jurors that were fixed. If he cannot d.
this, will he admit that he has lledp
There is not 80 much danger to tustic
