Legal News.

At the Sheriffs' Court, Red Lion-square, on Wednesday week, only eight special jurors attended, and, as no tales was prayed, the case was tried. The jury went to view the premises, and afterwards heard the evidence. After the trial, the foreman said he was requested to suggest to the court, as they had been kept all the day, whether they should not be paid the full amount of twelve jurymen. Mr. Under-Sheriff Burchell said he had never heard of such an application before. He had no power, and if he had possessed it he should not have acceded to such a request. The jury would be paid two guineas for the view and hearing the evidence. They were accordingly paid sixteen guineas, instead of twenty-four guineas, which would have been the amount had the full number attended.

In giving judgment on the Wigtown Election Petition on Tuesday week, Lord Ormidale said :-There is a practical lesson that I wish to incalcate as arising from this case in the presence of this numerous auditory. This is the first time that an election petition trial has taken place in Scotland under the recent arrangement of two judges being present, and it is the first time, except once before in Greenock, that a trial has been held in the locality where the alleged corrupt practices had taken place. Now, it was thought when this new tribunal was established by Parliament that it would be desirable that these investigaticns should take place in the midst of the population where the corrupt practices were said to have taken place. I was myself examined before a parliamentary committee on the subject, and I gave some evidence. Whether I recommended that these trials should take place in the locality or not, I am not quite sure. I do not recol· lect exactly. My own impression is that I rather suggested that they should take place in Edinburgh. Be that as it may, the statute makes it imperative that it should take place in the locality, and perhaps it may have a good effect when it takes place in the locality where the alleged evil practices were carried on. And this is the practical lesson that I desire to inculcate, that if there are parties in this constituency who are ready to become the tools, or become voluntary agents, to promote illegal and corrupt practices, they may depend upon it that, sooner or later, their illegal practices and their illegal objects will be exposed, and they will become, as probably some individuals who were examined before you yesterday may become, for some time to come, the objects of public scorn; and rightly so.

The Canada Law Journal, discussing "punctuation in its legal aspect," says In Gauntlett v. Carter (17 Beav. 589), the Master of the Rolls placed a good deal of reliance upon the position of marks of punctuation, observing that he did not see how he could reject the commas, and that it seemed to him that the stops were inserted by the testator and were ntentional. In an American case, Arcularius v. Sweet (25

(S. C.

Barb. S. C. 405), the judge said, "Punctuation may, perhaps,
be resorted to where no other means can be found of solving
an ambiguity; but not in cases where no real ambiguity exists
except what punctuation itself creates." It was contended in
that case that a semi-colon made all the difference in the
meaning, but the judge said, "A single dot over a comma so
easily inserted by mistake or design, and so difficult, if not
impossible in most instances, of proof or disproof, can never
be allowed to overturn the natural import of the written
words." And in Manning v. Purcell (24 L. J. Ch. 523, note),
Lord Justice Knight Bruce said that even in wills of
personalty judges in chancery were not bound to confine
their attention to the probate, but might, as he had known
Lord Eldon repeatedly do, look at the original will in the
testator's handwriting with a view to see whether anything
there appearing, as for instance, the mode in which it was
written, how "dashed and stopped," could guide them
in the true construction to be put upon it.
but not so fully given in 7 De G. M. & G. 55.)
Punctuation is not allowed to throw light on the printed
statutes in England, as pointed out by Romilly, M. R., in
Borrow v. Wadkin (24 Beav. 330), where the question was
whether a comma was to be placed at the top of the word
"aliens" so as to mark a genitive, or between it and the next
word; because in the Rolls of Parliament the words are
never punctuated, and accordingly, said the judge, very little
is to be learned from the original statute, and he had to
In the case already
gather the meaning from the context.
cited from 25 Barb., Roosevelt, J., refers to an extraordinary
case where the powers of the Federal Government depended
on a comma and parties divided on a semi-colon. One side
read in the Constitution that Congress should have power to
lay taxes to pay (i.e. in order to pay) the debts and provide
for the common defence and general welfare; the other that
the powers given were independent, to lay taxes,'' to pro-
&c. The semi-colon in-
vide for the general welfare,'
terpretation was finally overthrown and the written words
and natural sense prevailed over
"stops."

Guaranteed Pure Soluble Cocoa of the Finest Quality, with the excess of fat extracted.

The Faculty pronounce it "the most nutritious, perfectly digestible beverage for Breakfast, Luncheon, or Supper, and invaluable for Invalids and Children."

Highly commended by the entire Medical Press. Being without sugar, spice, or other admixture, it suits all palates, keeps better in all climates, and is four times the strength of cocoas THICKENED yet WEAKENED with starch, &c., and IN REALITY CHEAPER than such Mixtures.

Made instantaneously with boiling water, a teaspoonful to a Breakfast Cup, costing less than a halfpenny.

COCOATINA A LA VANILLE is the most delicate, digestible, cheapest Vanilla Chocolate, and may be taken when richer chocolate is prohibited.

STEPHENS' SCARLET INK FOR STEEL PENS.

This new Ink supplies the demand continually made but never before met, for a Red Ink which is uninjured by Steel or other

Metallic Pens. Steel Pens left in this ink for months do not impair

the beauty of its colour, nor are the Pens in the least corroded by it. The existing Red Inks rapidly destroy Steel Pens, and lose their red colour if used with other than Gold or Quill Pens. This new colour is a very rich scarlet red of great beauty. The colour of this ink is not affected by use upon parchment, and is consequently of great value to Solicitors and Draughtsmen.

Sold in stone bottles, retail at 1s., 2s.. 3s; and Imperial Quarts of 40 ounces at 6s. each. Also in glass bottles at 6d. and 18. each. SOLD BY ALL STATIONERS.
