EIIITORB OF IBT:Al)fOltD RETORTER :
The Athens Citii ette states that "a candi- -
date for a township office in Sheshequin
was defeated - on the grounds that he was
a juror in the Smithfield ~outrage case."
I do not know how far the feeling here
indicated extends, but as] this : case haS
Vein made very notorious, and the facts
as proven in Court have never been fairly
published, I deem it Koper to say a' few
words to the.ptibli, on the subject.
Jurojs are selected from they body of
the county," as We law quaintly express
it, and repesent the average intelligence
and bone Sty of the people. They are sol
emnliswOrn, they have the ptlisoners
be
fore therri, they-listen to the evidence, oti
serve the witnesses, hear argdments of
1 counsel. and have the law read rand ex
-1 ylained t 4 them. Are they not more like
-1 ly to arri'ye at a jbst conclusion_ than per
; sons with derive all their information
! from civrent reports '4 Considerate men
! will not\condernn jurors - Joe their sver
; diet in any case, unless they have had
equal opportunities to hear thp evidence,
and hate made themselves fainiliar with
the law.' --if jurors,, who are selected from
the mases of . our best citizens,- are not
to do theit- duty unbiased by !outside in- .
tluence, how is it poisible for Courts to
administer justice ? The experiinee of
centuries Itm_proven that - trial by \jury is
the safeguard of our liberties, and the.
system.is not likely to' be improved by
trying jurors for their verdicts in town
meetings.- .
I suppose the juror in• question was
censured for not finding Frank L. Pierce
and Jamei blathers guilty of rape. If the
evidence which vienl,io the jury in that
case could be published in full it would
so clearly justify the verdict of "not guil
ty" that I would not• trouble myself or
he public with this communication ; but
the whole truth has not beeni published;
and much that is false has spread on the
wings of rumor far and wide. The. de
tails of the case are unfit for publication,
and, therefore; I can only sty in this pub
lic manner that having given my most
considerate attention to the evidence,
without bias, for or against the prisoners,
I came to the colichision that they wore
not guilty of rapei , which •was the crime
for which they were tried. If there are
any persons Who express a different opin
idn they should at least be' able to sax
they heard 01 the evideaco as gitqt in.
Court, and be stile to give :the statutory_
definition of the oritne is found in Puiii
don's Digest, page 842. -
I am sure that no just. -or reasonable

Sunday afternoon, as ;Mr. P. ROMAN
was attempting to drive over the railroad
orosiing at" Water street, in the face of an
approaching train, one of the rulmers of
the sleigh, in which several ladies .were
seated, .caught in the tiack, and the
weight thus.thrown upon the doubletree
broke it, detaching the horses from the
sleigh and leaving it to the mercy of, the
fast approaching -train; Fortunately,
however, a number of men were standing
close by, and they qnickly ran to Mr. Ro_
wels's aid ; none too quickly, however, for
the train dashed by within a few, feet of
the disabled rig. It was i close call on a

verbal reporti from delegates Sind District
Deputies, Willeh . were highly satisfactory
se regards the advanceinent and interest
of the cider in this district,drsete . salon of
resolutions, etc.
The committee on resolutions made the
- •
following report :
Wusuwas, The drinking •of alcoholic
beverages is fraught with the direct re
sPltti to the human family, being bulb the
direct and indirect cans, or all shades.aud
degrees of crime, pauperism, imbecility
and premature death ; and
• • Wniunraih The legalizing the traffics in
the above named beverages is the most
dangerous legislation that over disgraced
our statute-books, endangering thereby
the very life of onr nation ; therefore,
Resolved, First, that we do hereby ex
preiis ouraincere-and heartfelt thanks to
the good and-wise people of tbe States of
'Maine and Kansas fortheir safe and glo
rious example given to the family of
States by so annuling their Constitution,
- and changing their lairs as to, prohibit
forever by law, the traffic in their midst of
the rum demon as a beverage ; and
Resolved, Second, that we give our nu.
qualified approbation to the efforts now
being made to secure an amendment to
the constitution' of - our Commonwealth by .
adding s XlXth article thereto which
allail forever prohibit the manufacture or
sale of intoxicants as a bevenige within
ourliounds, and that we will give to the
effort our uncompromising suppert in ev
ery honorable way for Its speedy accom
plishment.
Resolved, That we regard_ the call of
our central temperance committee for a,
State Temperance Convention at Harris
burg, March Ist and' 2nd, proximo, as
timely and Well.located, and that we will
here elect a delegate to attend said con
,
vehtion. •
Resolved, That we earnestly urge upon
the Legislature of our State now in ses
sion, the importance of the immediate pas
sage of the proposed tempe,rancelitw. •
Repiced; That a person is answerable
who makes cidqr and sells it as a bever
age to be dealt out to the drunkard, and
his crime is no less than the ruts-seller.
Res°lra:, That•the executive committee
of this convention continue to .publish in
a County paper the names of__ all persons
signing petitions for license to sell intoxi
cating drink.
Pesolveti, That the manufacture and
sale of intoxicants as a beverage are un
pardonable if persisted in, -for their effect
is murder, and should receiveliimishmeut
due its crime.
Resolved, That the use of tobaeeo is
;second only to the use of rum in its, an- 1
noyance to ladies. We propose a vigor
ous tight against it when rum is down.
Resolved, That we hail with gladness
the great conflict that is ' raging between
temperance and hiternieranee from the
centre to the circumference of our Repub
lic, and we feel sanguine with reference
to the final issue, and the wrath and surge
of the rum power we consider as no unfa
vorable omen to our cause.
Resolved,' That we tender the good peo
ple of Hornbrook our thanks
for their generous hospitality extended to
the members of this convention ; also, for
their aid in making its session interesting
and profitable.

MUSICAL CQNVENTION
A Musical Convention was held at the
universalist Church, in Sheshegnin. com
mencing on. Wednesday, the 2d instant,
and closing on Friday evening with a oda
cert under the direction of Professor C.
J. BROWN. .PrOfeStiOr Bnown being a
resident here; has given instruction to a
class gratuitously during the winter. The
class was composed largely of new begin
ners, and it was astonishing to see the
proficiency many'of them had,made.
The concert was a fine treat to - lovers
of music; y calling on 'our - neighboring
towns for their musical talent, and com
bining the whole it formed a chores that
filled the very recesses of the old Church
with barmony—among so'many it is diffi
cult to specify and particularize.
Mrs. LUNGER, of Litchfield, ably pre
sided at the organ, and also aided in sing

, GHENT
Mn. Emote :—We would. inform 'the
numerous readers' f your most excellent
paper that the-people of Ghent are still
alive in the Sunday School work. M
though the wieter has I eon severe, the
work goes on increasing in nurnber, and
interest. On the 25th and 26th of Febru
ary, a Sunday School Institute . was held
in the M. F. Church, which will be a time
long remembered by all who attended: It
was truly a very profitable as well as
pleasant time.. . It opened on the evening
of the 25th with a full"-house, and Was
largely attended all through, many of the
surrounding schools were well *resent
ed and participated in the discussion.
* Bev. 13: L.' . Williams from Danby, was
conductor, and gave us as'a lesson title.
the true definition of the 'Sunday School,
as decided at Chautauqua, and we here
give it : "
.The `Sunday School is that de
partment of the Church of Christ,
which the Word of Christ is taught for
the purpose of bringing souls to, Christ,
and building up souls in Christ." We
Would say for the benefit of other places
contemplating holding institutes, would
do well in securing Brother Williams as
instructor, as he is just the man for that
positil, and will make them a success
wheraer he goes. On the last - evening,
"he gave us a bird's-eye view of Chautan
qua, which was very interesting. We
would not forget to compliment the com
mittee' on programme for their good judg
ment in the selection of •questions, and
also the friends from Borne, and Major
Gore !. of Sheshequin, for their hearty co
operation in the work.
WO would be pleased to- give a more
full detail of the.proceedings, but fearing
of Wearying your patiende we refrain
from dtiing so, but suffice to say all did
nobly ind are worthy of commendation.
On the last evening, before closing, a
fewiresolutions were offered and adopted:
Atullne, them was one, that we as s
Church and Sunday School, elect a dele
gate to repreient us at the State Temper
ance COnvention, 'at Ilairisburg. Rev:
S. P. Wright was duly • eleetpd and
equipped with the necessary credentials.
By the way, we would say right 1404
that our town has made a mark irr the
right direction. The peaple of temper
arim held a caucus, and made their nomi
nations and elected two of their candi
dates, and might . have elided more if
they had put forth tie effort- that was
.mader by • the other party. The Tem
perance patty will surely win, and' that
very tom, if the . Republibans do not - en
dorse a Temperance plank in their plat)
forms, and a pretty strong one too.
Yours Truly,' COWLIE4PONDENT.

EDITOR REPORTER—Des' Str ‘ :, I would
like to mention through your :colUmns, of
the things that are worthy of note' from
this place as follows :
Camptown is alive yet. There has been
a grand rush here for a few days past for
houses to live in—everybody seems to
want to got here to live. There has been
several" applications for house; that have
failed on getting them ; they are all en
gaged. Ido not know what the rush is
for, unless it is to be in bearing distance
of the steam whistle of tbit.,Camptown
Woolen Mills which are fast approaching
completion4nd the rattle - Of 'the many
looms that are going "to be in l operation
there. Everything is being done in first

!first-class business when they start up.
'The &dory is all warmed with

The new elitirch is progressing , as fast
as'the weather will admit. Nearly every
thing is . ready. AS soon as the ground
is thawed out the sod will 'be broke
for it. .\

with them, but the'first thing was beard
that•he had gal 'twenty.ilve wagons and.

done with .the most of them before the
summer is'gone. -
