Probablyi.no part of our entire

so annoying to the officers of the
law, so damaging to the cause of

"press thronghont the country. has,
for years, poureda freqnent, if . not
constant, fire upon the law aiid practice of Courts, which often, if’ not
always, throw the decision of important cases, of suits fur property,
and trials for life; into the hands of
quently of unfit ‘men. And while
intelligent men, who are educated,
' gnd-'read the newspapers because
they are educated; and people, who
are intelligent, read them for information--while such men, who, from

keep abreast of the time, and posted

the account of ‘the crime, or whatever it may be, the ignorant illiterite lump. of humanity, .who cannot

the passing events as not to take the
trouble’ of Yeading. about them,’ is
admitted.and considered competent
to decide questions of fortune, or
even of life itself.
Criminal lawyers, those who seek .
or accept cases of defence, ither
because they secure amp “tees, or

sympathy of the eommunity is on
the side of the party on trial, usually

Bag under it, gives the counsel

Often they aré thi enabled to obtain a jory very much to their liking.
At the very first they may be suc’ cessful in securing one or two per_ bons on a jury who will hold out
against all the rest, no matter what
may be the law, the _ evi_ denee,. the crime, the merits of
the ase; or the pleadmgs, The .
law which requires,” or allows such
tdmpering with justice, such obstruction to legitimate application of

but it isa disgrace to our civiliza»
