HTTABIK. avBafamao atraat: Cofie SaaaMtataTpiBa PROPRIKTOSa mi. E. J' NICHOLSON, 6E0. NICHOLSON mTJRRDAY BTKNINGU lSSl belief seems to Ibe prevalent that tales Jurors in criminal cases are drawn Irom tne crotrd hanging around the court, generally pomposed of the companions ot the accused.

It has been said that the prisoners have only to exhaust the' regular an el in order to insure a( trial by persons who sympathize with them and thus obtain an acquittal. If this "were bo jnstice would Indeed become a mockery and 'would' be powerless to stretch forth her hand totyvertake the evil doer and arrest hit depredations. Te system complained of has long been abolished. Kven were it In existence tales jurors would seldom be required, except in capital easesl TJnder the law the accused is allowed twelve peremptory challenges and the prosecution six. When these are exhausted enough jurors remain to supply the twelve necessary to try a ease.

In trials for serious misdemeanors, where men shirk the grave and responsible trust which the, law. confides to them on the flimsy pretense of having formed an opinion from reading the" newspaper reports, which will not yield to rworn evidence, the panel does not auffteeand it becomes necessary, to teUeairiiw."

The amount at tixo Philadelphia Mint, doing three times as much" work, was only about $5000, While, better than all, the New Orleans Mint, with about the same amount of work as San Francisco, under the skillful management of Superintendent Davis, wasted only $1670. Our Life. A friend writes to us and says he would like to know how we live here in the heart of the Rocky Mountains, and as other friends may have the same curi osity, we have ho objection to making it public.

At 9 A. M. we are aroused from our slumbers by the entrance of our valet de chambre, who has in his hand a tunall cup of very strong coffee, which we take as a substitute for the matutinal eacktail. After finishing the coffee we call 'for our exchanges, selecting from the immense assortment handed usfach papers as the New Orleans Picayune, New 1 ork Herald, and after a careful perusal of the events of the outside world wo arise, step into the bath room, indulge in a delicious plunge in water just from the Roaring Forks, and come out ready to enjoy a light breakfast prepared by tbe French artist who presides over oar cuisine. Breakfast is a meal that we rarely linger over; a salmon tront, fresh caught from the torrents above the town, and a couple of newly laid eggs washed down by a glass of saute rne, completes the repast, after which we again repair to our exchanges.

At 1 P. M. lunch is always ready, and as fruit is healthier in this climate during hot weather than meat a melon from the ice house, a few peaches, grapes, and a moderate quantity of California wine make up the repast. Lunch over, hammocks are swung in some cool, shady place, andwith a cigar and the latest work of faction we make ourselves comfortable for an hour or two, when we again return to the duties of reading the exchanges. This is exhausting hence is never indulged in for more than one hour at a time, then a game of billiards to sharpen the appetite.

Dinner at 6 P. M. is the principal meal of the day, when the fish of the streai, the birds of the air and the frmits of the earth all pay generous tribute to oar table, while the products of the vineyards of France stand unblushing! in pur glasses, cooled by ice gathered from the surroundingmountainstreams. Dinner generally requires two hours attention when an adjournment is made to the porch, cigar lighted, our musician brings out his guitar and attempts to rival the song; of the nightingale that is singing sweetly in the neighboring bosh. So ends each and every dav and such is life in Pitkin county, Colorado.

Arrests are seldom if ever made, and the detection of the criminals appears to be utterly; impossible with the force of detectives. On an average it is estimated that three or four robberies have been cetn niitted every day or night for the past month, and only a single arrest has been made. That the thieves are not common henroost robbers or amateurs is obvioSs, from the methods they adopt in effecting their entrances into buildings and although every burglary and robbery is.

reported to the Detective office, no arrests follow, which would seem to imply that the detectives are either Incompetent or deem such trifling matters as1 a robbery of fifty or sixty dollars' worth of goods beneath their notice. Chief Boylan claims that the force inefficient, and in proof of his assertion points to the records which show a deplorable state of affairs. While reports of burglaries axe numerous on the one side, the other only shows the arrest of one or two alleged dangerous and suspicions characters, but not a solitarv arrest for larceny is entered up to the credit of the aids. Chief Boy Ian ortherm ore claims that these are thieves not in the strict sense of the word, profeaskmals but still sufficiently skillful and cunning to effect their object and place the detectives at defiance. He also claims that they are known, but yet they are not arrested.

On Thursday morning, about 8 o'clock, the residence of Mr. Unla, No. 353 St. Peter street, was entered by a thief or thieves, who carried away a trunk, containing wearing apparel to the value of $25. The thieves sneaked in through the bsek door, which had been inadvertantly left open, and made their exit by the same Some, time during Wednesday night, by Kteacs of false keys, thieves opened the ice box of J.

Rohen. a butcher in Bora para Market, and stole about worth of bologna sansagee therefrom. These robberies are but trifling ones, but from the known unwillingness of the police to impart to the press the knowledge of all rtbbexies of any ex ten it ia safe to say thai the above are but a portion of the crimes committed dnring Wednesday night. 1 Ago snaHAPs. John Ferguson drew a pocket knife and assaulted Dick Carey on Wednesday evening, at the corner of Erato and Magazine streets.

Officer Murphy hove in sight in time to prevent bloodshed and arrested Ferguson. John Dalphus, a negro laborer, assaulted George W. Simms with a revol. ver on the Levee, at the foot of Julia street.

to Mr. J. M. Davis, of Wilson county, which stated ss follows Dick Neasom shot himself accidentally. He was showing Dr.

Goss how he could defend himself with his Enfield rifle, and it was accidentally discharged. The ball passed through his thigh and cut the main artery. The doctor wanted to amputste his leg, but Neasom refused to let him do it. He said he wanted to die. He was shot on Friday and died Saturday night at It o'clock.

He prayed all the time. He had been home ever since last August, but he kept very close. There was but one or two who knew he waa at home. Neasom, it will be remembered, killed Dr. McMahon and a man by the name of Bean, in Wilson county, about a year ago.

Since then, he has been at large, until overtaken by a fate, not even of tb at stern nature he deserved to meet, and sent into another world. His crimes were roost atrocious, and all will rejoice that the world has been ridden of him. San Antonio Express. The British Government has completed arrangements for the. convenience and security of Cety wayo.

They have purchased two farms, one of 1650 acres aad another of 60 acres, which thrown together will form the limits of his future realm. No strangers will be permitted to enter within the bounds of the King's location except under written order. Cety wayo and his followers will not be permitted to be absent from their residence between sunset and sunrise, but will have liberty to move abont during the daytime over the land. They will be supplied with everything necessary for their health and comfort. The estimate for the annual cost of the maintenance of Cety wayo and his suits amounts to $5200, of which by far the greater part is for the custodians and interpreter.

Cety way 08 household consists of five wives and two attendants. Parole whisky is good. Senator Bill's Zmprovlng Condition. The Atlanta Constitution of August 1, Mr. B.

IL HUl, sele graphed to the family of Senator 'Hill that his father was much, better and steadily improving. This news was very gladly received and it is supplemented by the cheerful reports by Dr. Ridley, who retoraed from Philadelphia, Friday evening. He says that he left Senator Hill cheerful and in remarkably good health with the exception of the trouble with his tongue. Mr.

Hill, after leaving Atlanta, went to New York, and there consulted several distinguished surgeons. One of them said he thought the sore on the tongue was slight, But the general opinion was that it was of such serious nature that it deserved immediate He was recommended to Dr. Gross, the Nestor of American surgery. Dr. Gross was at Cape May when Mr.

Hill' went to Philadelphia. The Senator went toe Cape May and there consulted the doctor who asked him: "Do yon want me to tell yon what is the matter Yes." said Mr. IlilL I want to know the worst." Dr. Gross then told the Senator that the sore which had troubled him on his tongue was a cancer of the mucus membrane, or epithelioma, and that the only remedy for it was the knife. He asked the Senator if he was willing to submit to the operation.

He said he was, and returning to Philadelphia with the Doctor, the operation was performed in Jefferson College Hospital. Mr. Hill took, ether, and the operation was performed' with singular success. Dr. Ridley says Hill ia very cheerful.

He used a slate to converse on for a day or two after the operation, but before Dr. Ridley left he oould.talk easily and without ant na usual exertion. Dr. Gross says his health is remarkably good and that he is a superb specimen of manhood. 1.

Mr. Hill will remain at hospital until next Wednesday and then, will join Mrs. Hill at Rockbridge Alum springs, wnere tney win remain ior As to tke oneratinzL. Dn Gross says it will probably prove an effectual remedy, though there ia possible a return of the sore. Dr.

Pancoast, wfeo assisted fir uross. is quit confident of. permanent cure. and says the operation was' penecuy performed. All the symptoms in the.case are very hopeful and point to the speedy restoration of Mr.

Hill to the physical perfection he has enjoyed until this affliction came. Epithelioma ia a species oi can oer, but is one of ita mildest forma, and can be perfectly cured with peeper treatment. i The Augusta Chronicle says: It is aurprising that Senator Hill, of Georgia, should have for so long a time neglected a dangerous dorm of cancer upon his tongue. It ia true that he abandoned the use of cigars and, had a sharp tooth filed down, but there was no permanent core. His base, we understand, had been referred to an Lrregularnraotitioner in New York without LesOfiL Wile did not submit trouble ttsonte4is tinguished member of thftss flsionin the South we do not hJro one would ever have suspected, wbfrbJballing on him or witnessing his woinferful fo reneic aisplays in the Senate, that there was any thing serious the matter with him.

And yetit appears, beyond all donbt, that he was menaced with a frightful disorder, and one too, that must have eventuated in death by no means Under date of the 2d, a correspondent of the Columbus Enqnirer Sun informs the public that Mr. Hill Ss now in private rooms at Jefferson College. By irregular treatment his disease degenerated into epithelioma, involving the sublingual gland to a more or less extent, After doe deliberation and consultation, it was decided bv his surgical advisers, Prof Samuel D. Gross and Prof. William H.

Pancosst, that an operation was imperative. This took place at the hospital on July 20. The operation was an extensive one, necessitating the removal of the sublingual gland and a portion of the under surface of the tongue oa the left side. Senator Hill has none of his family with him and but few friends he has excellent quarters and accommodations, lie is under the charge of two Georgians, Dr. J.

L. Wright, of Warren county, and Dr. H. of Macon, both resident physicians 111 charge. He is doing well.

Dr. Panooast informed the Enquirer correspondent that he felt that Senator Hill would in time recover and enjoy his wonted health. We are very glad, indeed to have such assurances of our distinguished friend's case. Mr. Hill's place in the Senate could not be well supplied at this time.

There is some concern lest the excision of a part Of the tOPgoe should afi'ect articulation. This woCvd be a misfortune for so great an orator, advocate and statesman. There is also some anxiety lest, in an emergency, Senator Hill should not be able to take his seat in the Senate. We allude to the contingency of a special session at no distant period. The people of Georgia will watch with mnch interest the progress of their senior Senator to recovery, and welcome him back to health and usefulness.

The Gun Lafayette Kissed. At the Watervliet Arsenal a Impounder brass cannon with a history. It was captured at the siege of Yorktown by Lafayette, who nearly lost his life in the effort, so nearly, indeed, that a solid shot whizzed between the Marquis and the piece, striking the itsejf, while the prize was being dragged to our lines. The indentation made In the cannon by the shot still remains, and in 1824 served to identify the gun when Lafayette visited Troy and the arsenal. Mr.

Johnson, who is employed at the arsenal, states that he helped to row Lafayette, across the river here fifty seven years ago, and was present when the venerable Frenchman hugged and kissed the gun a reminder to him of his field service in the War of the Revolution. It would be eminently fitting that the trophy should be sent to Yorktown to bear its psrt in the coming celebration there. When the news of Lafayette's death was received at Watervliet Arsenal, in 1834, the old gun was fired half hourly from sunrise to sunset.
