His Lordship summed up, and the Jury They returned into Court a short time afterwards and announced that they had agreed upon a verdict by a majority of

His Lordship explained that the majority must be five to two, and asked them to again consider the matter. If they could not agree after due deliberation he would have to discharge them and have the case

retried.

Another retirement was made and upon

returning some minutes later the foreman stated that they had arrived at a majority verdict of not guilty.

The prisoner was then discharged, and the court adjourned sine die.

From the time of Aristotle downwards, a potent agent in the removal of these diseases has (like the famed phi- losopher's stone) been theobject of search of some hopeful, generous minds;and far beyond the mere power--if such condeverbave been discovered-of transmuting the baser metals into gold is surely the discovery of a remedy so potent as to replenish the failing energies of the comfirmed rose in the one case, and in the other so effectually, speedily and safely to expel from the system without the sid, or even the knowledge, of a second party, the poisons of acquired or inherited disease in alltheir protean forms as to leaveno taint or trace behind.
