J. W. SELUE, THE EVENING STAR. -AUGUST 1881. Nevada Jurors, HOW THEY BALANCED THE SCALES OF JUSTICE IN THE GOOD OLD pars. From the Carson Appeal. Last night a_ number of men were sitting in front of the Ormsby House discussing the big mining suit in EureXa between the Richmond and Albion. General Kittrell, W. W. Bishop, Sine Barnes, Johnny Moore and others were in- teresting the crowd with recitals of the suits they had seen. Bishop and Kittrell insisted that of late years the atmosphere of the courts had been purer than In the earlier days. “That Js,” said Barnes, “thinner and weaker; in other words, jurors cost less than formerly.” Both the lawyers agreed that coin had a : Po- tent influence.” When the law was all on their side and the Jary on the other they could only explain it on a coin hypothesis. At this point an old grizzly bearded man who had been listening slid up and remarked: “Mining suits ain't what they ured to be. There’s been no real_live litigation to —_ of lermes: since the Raymond & Ely suit with the in Pioche.” “Were you in town?” “Well, rather; I travelled 400 miles on a mule to get to thejury box. I struck the town about 6 o'clock at night, and, walking into the leading barroom, inquired if the suit had begun. In- side of half an hour a man came up and asked me what my name was. He wrote it down on his shirt cuff, and then said: ‘Pard, if you want to stay and see the suit, let me see you through ‘on your expenses;’ and he handed ine $500, re- marking that he thought the R. & E. had the bulge on the law. I said that I thought that myself, and then I sauntered off. In about an hour 8 man came to me and told me I was drawn on the Jury. I said I didn’t mind, and agreed to stand in. About 9 o'clock a man tapped me on the arm and handed me five hundred, remarking that the Hermes had about all the law and facts on their side that was necessary. He thought I might need a little money for expenses. Of course I took the money, he seemed so anxious to get rid of it, and then I sllpped into a back room, io on a pair of false side whiskers, a kk duster Thad been carrying under my coat. and I was achanged man. By 10 o'clock I was ona good horse that I paid $300 for, and started off on a prospecting trip. I couldn't bear the idea of holding the scales of justice in a case like that. I was fearful of further cor- ruption, you see. But on the trial I was repre- sented bya proxy. On the road I met old Bill Damen, dead broke and discouraged. I put him on the lay, and he started double quick ee for when I next heard of him he was drivin’ a thin si Pioche. He struck the ledge rich, I gu spankin’ team and enjoying life.” — vii How Sue Herren Her Morner.—“I don't see how I'd git along without Mai nohow, Mrs. Blucher observed, pausing to wipe the per- spiration from heraed featnres and put another to the steaming suds, while her daughter’s voice at the piano could be dis- ized, floating out from the adjoin- ing parlor. “I don’t see how T'dgit along with- ladle of soft soap tinetly reco out that gal, nohow.

"Tain't every gal as ud be so thoughtful, I kin tell you. Now, most of ’em ud jest bang away with ‘Jordan is a hard road to travel,” or ‘Whoop ’em up, Eliza Jane,’ but she ain't none o’ that sort.

It is under- stood to be Mr. Bartholomei’s opinion that if elihood of Hartmann isin Canada there is no Ii his government asking for his return. because he was not interfered with in England, and the presumption is that he will not be interfered with in her colonies.

Annie Clements, alias Blanche Douglass, the woman who plays so prominent a part in events preceding the mysterious death of pretty Jennie Cramer, of New Haven, was arrested in New York on Friday, charged with perjury. She con- sented to go to New Haven without the for- tality of a requisition, and In default of bail Wag temporarily locked up. She admits havi le some misstatements about what occurre at Mr. Malley’s house when she was there with Jennie. She describes Jennie as a very wild girl, and the Malleys had told her that she was not entirely innocent. This was confirmed by the fact that Jennie accompanied her and the Malleys to their father’s house and spent the night with James in one room, while Walter and herself were in another room. She also ad- she again visited the Malleys; but she re- iterates the rest of her testimony before the coroner’s inquest, that the last she saw of Jennie was in a car bound for Savins’ Rock shortly after her mother had scolded the girl for being away from home all night. The New Haven | Union urges the authorities to place Walter and James Malley under arrest, arguing that “the Dougtass woman is now under arrest, and will testify in flat contradiction of many of her for- mer statements and the statements of the Mal- leys. The latter may or may not acknowledge that the Douglass woman is now right, and con: fess that they perjured themselves; but that they will voluntarily, while free from arrest, tell all that they know, we do not believe. But if once put under arrest and made to feel that the strong arm of the law was resting upon them, they might make a full breast of their whole connection with the case. Of course, if the au- thorities do not feel that not enough has been elicited so far to cast suspicion on the young men, and that they have acquitted themselves satisfactorily, so far, then, their conduct is un- derstandable. But this view is not shared in by the general public. certainly have no feel- ing against the young men, but we dare say that if they were poor and obscure ey would have been arrested long azo on suspicion. Now, they are amenable under the charge of perjury nd seduction, and deserve no more considera- tion than the Douglass woman, if as much.” sedicies nec Piotnineci] Presi cutting of rates of the trunk lines, Mr. John W. Garrett, president of the Baltimore and Ohio road, said his attention had been called to i President W. H. Vanderbilt toa New York Tribune reporter in the Tri’une of August 10.

Tobacco has absolutely suspended its growth and is rapidly running up to seed and drying up into ground leaves. All forward plantings are irreparably blighted by the drouth, and a rain at this time would be of little advantage to it. The opinion prevails generally amon far- mers that the crop made in this county this year will not be at all in excess of that made last year, and may be less. Corn and later millet are being much injured, as is also to a very serious extent the melon crop.” = Forrien EVENTS oF INTPREST.—It ts under. stood that Mr. Gladstone, representing the British government, will insist on the land bill as it passed the house of commons, and should the lords hold out inst it Parliament will be summoned to meet again in the autumn... .Mr. Bradlaugh is suffering from erysipelas, and by advice of his physicians has left’ London. .
