In fact his appearance is rather slovenly.
But, notwithstanding this, he has a re-

This close& the case for the defence;
and counsel on both side § addressed the
jury.
in his charga to the Jury, the Judge
stated that there were three -ways en
"whibl'a verdict Might be rendered in
a ease such as this. First, they could
bring in a verdict of common .assault.;
second, they could bring in a verdict of
unlawful stabbing, and, third, they
could bring a verdict of felonious as•
In this case, however, they could
not bring a verdict of common assault,
as, by the evidence, it appeared that it
was McCarroll, and not the prisoner,
who was the aggressor and provoker of
the a,ssault.i Neither could they bring in
a verdict for felony, as it had. not been
shown by the evidence that the prisoner
intended or desired to take thelife of
the other, and, consequently there could
not be felonious intent. The use of a
knife was, in the eye of the law, a par-
ticularly serious offence, more so than
the use of any other weapon, because the
constant use of the knife by n11 parties
made the provocation to use it in cases
such as the one under consideration very
great, unless the offence was one which
welcl be severely punished. Consider-
int- the great provocation the prisoner
hal, if he had knocked McCarroll down
on the spot be would have done perfectly
right, and the jury evould be justified in
acquitting. The law does not deny the
resenting of an insult. There is no evi-
dence to show that prisoner went to meet
these young 111011. There was nothing to
show but that he was going quietly to his
home. You can, therefore, in view of
all the circumstances, acquit him of the
felony, and. take the middle course and
convict him of unlawfully stabbing or
using the knife.
The jury retired, and after about two
hours' deliberation retarned to court with
the following verdict: "Not guilty . of
felony, but guilty of maliciously stab-
bing." The prisoner was then removed
from the dock.
The grand. jury brought in true bills
against Robert Duruyeon, for attempting
to shoot at constable; also against the
same person for obstructing a peace of-
ficer.
To both of these indictments the pri-
soner pleaded not guilty. In • the one
•case he was charged with taking a gun
and. attempting to shoot one John Bailey,
who went with Constable Hall to assist
in the arrest of his son. In the other he
• was charged. with attempting to prevent
Constable Hall from making the arrest.
Both cases proved to have but little
foundation, there being no evidence to
sustain them. In both cases the jury
were iustructed to render a verdict of
not guilty, which they did. The prison-
er was discharge& after receiving a cau-
tion from His Lordship to better guard
his temper in future.

DEAR. Sm,: --The electors of the various

position of the traitorous conduct of our
present mis-representative, M. 0. Camer-

pose such Omwentions, not to atterapt to
