DR. RADWAY' SREG-UDATINGr PILLS.
••I ■would rather have one hox of Dr. Rad way’s
Pills, than all other pills in the world. They are
Dills that cure. When yon take a dose of these
wills, yon can depend upon? the expulsion of the
diseased humors from the'system: the Diver,
Bowels, Stomach, Kidneys, System, Skin and
Blood are acted upon and the bowels, alter -an
•potation induced by Radway’s Pills?, are left as
•lean and healthy as the stomach would he after a.
dose , of lobelia. No: straining, weakness, or
wrenching pains, or piles or tenesmus, but a
thorough and natural evacuation is the result. ’ ’
This is the testimony of one of the most distin
guished physicians in the world. Never were
toner words uttered. “Radway’s Pills are pills
feat qure. * * The sufferer of Diver Complaint, Dys
pepsia. Constipation, Biliousness, Costiveness,
Jaundice, Dropsy, &c., may rely upon an ahso-'
lute cure, by ihe use of one to six boxes. It is not
necessary to take these jpU Is for months or years to
accomplish a cure. They should be used in all
cases where a cathartic is required.

REFORMS IN JURY TRIALS,
The Convention to form a Constitution
for the new State of Nevada has incorpo
rated in the instrument a provision that
might be imitated with profit by older
States. It is'provided that the afßrmative
Totes of nine out of twelve jurors shall be
sufficient in rendering a verdict. This is
common sense, , and a great improvement
upon the system which requires unanimity
in juries. Our jury system has been greatly
improved within the last thirty years, hut
it still has the important defect that the
people of Nevada are endeavoring to cure.
There, are many persons living, who are able
to read'this article without' spectacles, who
remember the time in Philadelphia when
juries that were out deliberating upon a case
were ndt'ptrmitted to have fight, food, fire
or a bed until they had agreed upon a ver
dict, and the consequence was that the re
sult of tie case became a question of physi
cal endurance. The. party in the suit who
had the most robust champions among the
jurors generally carried the day; without re
gard to the merits of the case, and stomach
had more to do with the verdict than brains
had. Like the English judge, who would
hang his man rather - than eat his mutton
cold, our old times jurors would strain
consciences in making a verdict, rather than
suffer the cravings of hunger, the want of
fire, or be deprived of comfortable rest.
The law makers finally saw the error of this
system,"and for a number of years past
jurors who rendered wrong verdicts had not
the excuse, for it that they were hungry,
cold or sleepy.
The Freeth case, where a monstrous
verdict was rendered by a jury that was
notoriously packed, led to another very
great reform in the mode of selecting jurors.
In that' case a single individualj a most
disreputable character, who had his price,
was foisted into’ the jury; box by adroit
management and bold fraud, and. he served
his employers so well that he forced his
eleven colleagues into compliance with his
demands, and a verdict entirely at variance
with the law and the evidence was rendered.
But the case had the good effect of calling
public attention to the liability of the old
system to abuse, and new and important
safeguards were thrown about the jury box.
The rule which requires entire unanimity
in rendering a verdict has very nearly the
same effect as the old starving and freezing
process, for after all it is a mere question of
physical endurance. The forcing operation
is not performed so summarily as when
done in the absence of food, fire, candle and
bed ; but it still becomes a question of time
and endurance. Days and nights of con
finement and absence from family and
business are a severe trial to the patience of
most men, and are very apt to cool the
ardor of the conscientious majority •wh
have less endurance than the obstinate
minority, who, either through ignorance,
perversity or interest, hold out. Such
pressure as this accounts for the frequent
ridiculous verdicts that are rendered, and
for the number of juries that are discharged
becapse of tfieir inability to agree, thus de
feating the ends of justice, putting the courts
to vexatious troublefor'nothing,and saddling
the county with heavy expense. We have
known of mapy cases where intelligent
jurors have been forced into the compromise
verdicts which are usually the result of
these dead-locks, who have been ashamed
to go into court with the Verdicts which
they have, been compelled to endorse.
Trial by jury dates back to the days of
the ancient Greeks and Romans; but a ma
jority of the jurors was sufficient to form
a verdict, in those times. The Teutonic,
Norman and Scandinavian nations went
upon the majority system in their jury
trials; and even in England, where the
principle of unanimity has been most per
sistently adhered to, it has not always been
the case. Anciently, juries in England
consisted of more than twelve ners'”’ 0 .-““<3
the law required that twelve of the number'
should agree .upon a verdict. In course of
of time the number of jurors was reduced
to twelve, and unanimity was required. In
the days of Jeffreys and Scroggs, judges
used to hector -their juries before they re
tired to deliberate upon their verdicts, and
where the latter did not agree with the
views; of the court, it was not unusual to
whip the jurors publicly at the cart’s tail.
We have known of instances where Phila
delphia juries might have received this
treatment without doing violence to justice,
although public scandal might have .been
promoted by the operation. In our Grand-
Juries the old English; majority system still
prevails, the votes of twelve Grand Jurors
only, out of a larger number, being neces
sary in “finding” a bill. Jn England, the
abuses growing out of the unanimity rule
in petit juries, are well understood, and
within a year or two Lord Chancellor Camp
bell introduced a bill an the English Parlia
ment for the purpose of a reform
in this respect. No action has yet been
taken upon it.
Another ridiculous feature of our Ameri
can jury system,is the exclusion from the
box, in the trial of capital cases, of all who'
• have formed or expressed any opinion of the ,
guilt or innocence of the prisoner. The ef- j
feet of this rule was to exclude all intelli- 1
gent and reasoning men, and to supply their
plac.es with persons who were too ignorant
to read the published reports of murders,
&c-., or if they did read them, too stupid to
,form any intelligenf; opinion concerning
’them. In the trial of Arthur Spring for mur
der,in 1854, it was.fijuhd utterly impossible
to obtain a jury with ‘this test, so notorious
were the particulars of the crime, and so
manifest was the guilt of the accused. The
then District Attorney—who was a far bet
ter lawyer than he is an honest politician—
hit upon a shrewd and sensible way of get
ting over the difficulty, and his plan has
since become the practice'of the Court. It
was .to follow the usual question, “Have
youpormed or expressed an opinion?” &c.,
with the question whether that opinion
would prevent the juror from rendering a
verdict in accordance with the law and the
evidence, This was a vast improvement
upon the old rule. Our jury system has
been greatly improved within the last
quarter of a centuiyy and the t adoption of
the Nevada plan of two-thirds being enough
to form a vferdict, would do very much to
wards bringing it to perfection. ..

lt is stated that in- the year 18611,112,-.
476 gallons of petroleum were shipped from
this country to foreign ports ; in 1862 the
quantity was 10,887,701 gallons; and in
1863 the figures were 28,000,000 gallons.
Much of the oil was sent to Europe in
the barrels being emptied into the holds of
the vessels. to the Tribune the
export trade last year employed what was
equal to 253 ships of 1,000 tons each, an<f
fßJfi IMiLT EVENIUti bULLEtINPHIL-
EEIBOLETTM,
the oil was worth about $15,000,000, if
refined, and about $12,000,000 if crude'.
The export of 1864 will be, it is estimated,
about 40,000,000 gallons. When wc add
to the foregoing figures the vast amount of
oil consumed at home, it will he seen how
immense is the quantity produced, and we
cannot wonder that, along the entire length
of the-Pennsylvania Railroad, the traveler
constantly passes long trains of cars filled
with barrels, which send out the odor of
oil most decidedly.
'The effect of this great production of pe
troleum has been very marked in other
ways than in. the mere increase in the ex
port of the article. A railroad twenty
seven miles long has been built which has
carried nearly half a million barrels of oil
and 60,000 passengers, in addition to the
vast quantity sent down the Allegheny
river; the trade in the tools required for
boring and pumping has made quite an in
crease in the business of Pittsburgh, which
supplies Oil City;, fortunes have been se
cured by the inventors of lamps in which
the oil is burned, and the manufacture of
shades and chimneys is a very thriving!
business. If the production of the wells
continues to increase as it has done since
1861,we may expect the oil interest almost
to rival the coal trade and some other lines
of business hitherto supposed. to be unap
proachable in exfent and importance.
Thomas Buchanan Read, Esq., who has
been rendering excellent patriotic service in
Ohio and in the Army, of the Cumberland, fo r
the past two or three years, has returned to
Philadelphia, with the intention of remaining
here to prosecute one of the arts in which he
is a master—that of a painter. He will
also, of course, not neglect that of a poet. His
poem of “ The Wagoner of the Alleghenies,”
published by Messrs. Lippincott &. Co., has
had a remarkable success, particularly in the
West. A single-firm has retailed over twelve
hundred copies. The demand for it continues
good. As the work of a Pennsylvanian and the
scenes being also,Pennsylvanian, we take pride
and pleasure in reporting the'success of “ The
Wagoner.”
