hard labour meted out to the libeller may be made to contribute somewhat towards the attainment of another object an object beside which the restitution to Mr. Eddy of the filched slice of his official reputation is of but very slender moment. One of the jurors who found Martin guilty wrote to the newspapers few days ago, saying that, had he known Judge M'Farland would impose a sentence so monstrously out of proportion with the exhaustion would have induced him to concur In the finding. Another juror writes to say that he was trapped into verdict by the Crown Prosecutor's declaration that it was no part of the Jury's duty to consider Martin's intentions or motives when he wrote the libel. It is not the novelty of these jurors' sentiments which suggests reflection. Many jurors, and many a jury, on vindictive, a blind, or a savage punishment, have privately wished that they could take the finding ever, and dissent from the sentence in language which indicates that when next called upon for verdict, they will make it their business to find out not alone what is the fact, but whether the law under which it falls is blind, vindictive, or savage.

Mr. Caldwell, who appeared for the plaintiff, said the complainant and defendant resided at Wanchat in separate houses on opposite sides of the roadway. Last week the mother entered her daughter's house and while using very, foul language assaulted her by beating her severely, He (Mr. Caldwell) therefore, upon receipt of instructions from the complainant, sent a letter to the defendant requesting her la very express terms to abstain from further intrusion at her daughter's house and warning her that any fur ther act of violence would become the subject of a Magisterial inquiry.

THAT Heaven-sent barrier again! When will the Viceroy of Canton have the good sense, to remove that useless relic of the Franco-Chinese face by having the sticks, stones, and debris, piled up as a barrier in the Canton river, removed once and for all? It is a constant source of annoyance to foreign steamers, and native craft as well. Last night, as the steamship Powar was coming down from Canton, the officer of the watch sighted a fleet of junks coming towards the narrow channel in the barrier. It being manifest that a collision with some of them would probably result from an attempt to keep the ship on her course at full speed the engines are stopped, and in patience the huge liber awaited the passage of her pany, rivals through the gap.
