My friend-r-I will not give his
name, as me magnates 01 me law
might chide him for "telling stories'
out of school," has been a Sheriff
in our county for years, and under
stands all the crooks and turns of the
law and courts. Not long since I
met him just sot free from an attend
ance upon the April term of the Su
preme Uourt, ana ne was particularly
worn and jaded. Said he, in the
course of conversation:
I tell you, sir, this trial by jury,
which we hold so high in the scale of
human rights, is the veriest humbug
that ever was. I'or fifteen years I
have attended every term of our
cniirtH-tlifl Sunreine. Judicial, the
Superior and the Law lermsand
tne longer x live iir win oajjuiiouw
the more disgusted I become with
the average working of the jury sys
tem. In a squad of twelve jurymen
there is no individual responsibility.
Edit of them might be honest and
intelligent; two of them may be stu
pid and opinionated; and in nine

scrupulous two men who are friends
of one of the contending parties, and
who will suck to him turougn Unci;
and thin.
"Only night before last," he went
on, "1 was out m cnarge oi a jury
from six o clock in tlie evening until
almost daylight on the following
morniner. Ihe case was one of con
tract. The contractor had sued for
work done. The defendant produced
the written contract in court, and
showed that the prosecutor had bro
ken said contract in nearly every
stipulation, and also proved that not
hall tne worK agreed upon uao oeen
done; and, furthermore, he clearly
established that, as the contractor
had left him, he was a suuerer by the
imperfect work thus improperly be
gun. Upon the jury were found four
friends of the prosecutor men, ig
norant, pugnacious and stubborn.
They insisted that the prosecutor
was entitled to full pay, as per con
tract, for every day's work perform
ed, and for every article of material
furnished And they sat back against
the wall and waited for the other
eight to give in. And at three o'clock
in the morning, after having been
under lock and key lor nine hours
(it was Saturday morning, and they
must go home), those eight men gave
in!"
And mv friud said much more
which I will not repeat. Ho told
things which he had known to trans
pire in the jury-room which would be
hardly credited by a confiding pub
lic. One was where a tired jury de
cided an nnportant case by the nip
of a penny, "Heads for the plaintiff

following, as I have it in my Log of
a Three lears ijruise upon tne wa
ters and shores of the Mediteranean
1841-2-3 and part of 1844.
We went from Jerusalem to Con
stantinople overland (when I say
t'T Tir.nn flnnf. Wm. Nichols,
Lieut. Charles G. Hunter, Midship
man John McLeod Murphy, and my
self, ail of the United States Navy),
and a small town at the southern
base of Mount Arijiah, in the Pacha
lio of Karamania. On the evening
of our arrival I learned that an old
Mollah (man of law) had come from
Karakissar to hold court; and he
whose name was Ben Ahmed had it
certain portion of the Pachalic under
his charge, and in all cases not Capi
tal, and not involving direct oiaie
affairs, his decision is final. He was
both Judge and jury law-giver, ex
pounder and executor, ironi nis
decision there was no appeal. Should
he prove- to be corrupt, of course
there were higher powers to which he
was amenable aud woe to the offi
cer of Turkish corruption! I had
heard of the wisdom of these old
Moslem justices, and. as two of the
cases which would be brought for
ward on the present occasion had
been explained to me, I had a curi
osity to see how they would be dis
posed of. '
Tt was near the middle of the fore
noon when I gained a favorable seat
in an open court of the market place,
where the judgments were to be ren
dered. Most 01 tne space was cir
ered by an awning of cotton cloth,
and the arrangement for order was
perfect. Mollah was a man of full
three score and ten, tan nun iinuu
his flowinff beard white as
snow, and his eyes bright as clear
stars. ;
The first case was the disputed
possession of a slave. The plaintm
was an cldeny man, nameu juuaui
nha. bv profession a jewel merchant.
The defendant was a youthful peas
ant, named Galbec. The slave was a
Circassian cirl. and quite pretty, and
at present in custody of the peasant
Galliec, who claimed to be her owner.
"The girl ia mine," said the jewel
merchant earnestly; "I bought her
ten years ago when a mere child, and
have reared her and provided for her
until within a year past."
"The girl is mine," said the peas
ant, a stout, .well-looking young lei
r.1 Tint more than five aud twen-
tv. "I bought her of her wn father
f,,r mv wife three years affo. JUsten
nni in that old man. He would de-
ppiwvou. Let-iudsmcnt be rendered
forme who am the girl's lawful owner
and true husband."
Ben. Ahmed then appealed to the
girl herself, and asked her to which
of these two men sue obiohou.
"Galbec is mv huslmnd," she said.
TT Vina owned me for three years.
I have attended to Galljcc'i flocks,
"What did you do before you lived
with nunc
"I lived with my parents in Okop
"Were they peasants';;"
"They were."
There were no witnesses to be
called. The parties were strangers
in the place, and their own testimony
was available. Galbec evidently
loved the srirl. and it was natural
that she should prefer him for her
master, let the old jewel merchant
seemed holiest, and was earnest in
his claim. i
"I must take time to consider up
on this," said the Mollah. And he
made the girl sit near him, while the
two claimants stepped back.
The next case was a disputed pos
session of a saddle. A middle-aged
Armenian, named Saladeen, laid
claim to a saddle that was in posses
sion of a mountain guide named
Aboul Muzzafar. The saddle, which
had been held by an officer during
the morninc was produced in court.
It was a very valuable one, made of
the finest leather, and elaborately ornamented.?
The saddle is mine, , said Sala
deen. "I bought it of a Jew at
Nicdeh for three hundred piasters.
This villain stole it while I slept by
tke roadside on the other side of the
mountain."
"Believe him not," said Aboul
Muzzafar. "The saddle is mine.
My brother, in Kohich made it for
me'. This fellow saw it, and wished
to buy it, but when I refused to Bell
it he tried to take it from me by
force. I overcome him, and he was
angry and swore vengeance; and he
resorted to this trial in hopes of obr
taingit."
In this case, as m tne otner, mere
were no witnesses. dow men
seemed very earnest, and both main
tained an honest exterior.
The old Mollah took the saddle
and examined it. , .
'It is a valuable saddle, said he,
as he passed his hand over' the plain
surface. "I am at a loss which one
of vou to believe."
'Me. me. cnea aooui, --xr, i8
mine.
"Justice," exclaimed Saladeen, "I
only ask justice.
'Ah muttered tue juoiian, pass-
incf his nncer over tne emuoseu

What have we here? Give me a
knife."
The attendant tshawooska handed
up a knife, and the judge proceeded
to np open a Beam in tne saudie oow,
and with an exolamation of surprise
ha took therefrom four pieces of
Circassian girl.
"Girl," said he sternly, "you be
long to the jewel-merchant Mustapha.
Go with him, and be it his to punish
you for your falsehood."
Galbeo started forward with a ory
of wrath and dismay,, still ckirning
the girl as his.
"Stop," interrupted Ben-Ahmed,
"The wife of a simple peasant, rear
ed as you claim your wife to have
been reared, could not judge of pre
cious stones so quickly and so uner
ringly. She belongs to the jewel
merchant, who had educated her after
his calling. But thou shalt not go off
bootless, Galbeo, Thou shalt pay to
Mustapha the sum of twenty piasters
for the service of his slave, and for
thy false swearing thou shalt be taken
out with Albul junzzatar and receive
gold.

"Yes. most excellent judge," re

''Saladeen," said the Mollah. turn
ing to the elderly claimant, "what
have you to say to this? Did your
saddle have money concealed in it?"
"No, sir, not that I know of," the
man replied, with a crestfallen ex
pression. "The Jew of whom I
bought it might have had money
concealed in it, but I did not know
it."
"Very well," pronounced Ben
Ahmed, risine to his feet. "Sala-

you, Aboul Muzzafar, you shall pay
to Saladeen ten. piasters for the
trouble to which you have put him,
and this evening you shall receive
one hundred lashes ot the tmstinacio,

Aboul was led away by two officers,
while Saladeen took his ten piasters
and his saddle, and went his way re
joicing,
Two cases of simple award

came the case of a man who had
purchased for jewels what had proved
to be only bits of glass. The man
who had purchased was present, and

had bought the baubles for rubies

The' merchant could 'not deny that
he had sold them. He bought them
for pure stones, and had so supposed

ThA Mollah took the jewels m his

his vest pocket whictt ne compareu

Why," said he, smiling, "this is
only glass, as any one can tell.
Here this simple peasant girl would
know bettor than to purchase these
for true stones. What say you.?"
A a he Knoke he handed the glitter-
ing trinket to the Circassian girl who
had been claimed by the two men.
He smiled encouragingly, and she
took the jewel. She weighed it upon
the end of her finger, and then
touched it to her tongue.
"Is it notglassr asked tue aioiian.
"No. sir." the girl confidently re
plied "I should suy it was a pure

"Ah! say you sor anu mono

A tirl hA handed her the jewels in

them each to her tongue in turn,
and then said:
"The first, sir, was a true stone:

"It is as I thought," returned the
Mollah. "The first was a ruby of my
own. These others are but worthless
imitAtions."
And ha decreed that the merchant
should pay back the full price he
had received, and that tne uauuics
should be destroyed. And as. in
pleading, the culprit still persisted
in dec-Ving that he sold the stones
in good faith, the Judge further de

over the door of his shop a board

The ran Mall Gantte says: "An
interesting little establishment has
just been broken up at Trebiaond,
under circumstances which have
created, if not a 'scandal, at least a
sensation in that place. It appears
that for some time past Trebizond
has been kept in a Btate of uneasi
ness, owing to the proceedings oi
this household, which consisted of a
father, six sons and one daughter.
Dolichtful as was the oharm which
reigned over their domestic oifclej it
did not extend ooyond tne neartii, ior
unfortunately the family weakness
was murder. In a bnei pace oi
time the eight persons composing the
family managed to get through no
fewer than 215 murders. Out of this
number the gentlemen of the family
were each responsible for thirty mur
ders, while the young lady commit
ted twonty-hve, though, but lor tne
premature interference of the author-1
ities, it is considered probable that
she would have completed an equal
number. The predecessors ol tne
present Governor most nngallantly
oaused her to be arrested, together
with her aniiable parient and four of
her brothers. It is not btated what
became of the remaining brothers;
but the poor old gentleman ' was
harirred: about three months ago; and
two of his1 sons met with a similar
melancholy accident on the 25th of
last month. The other two and the
young lady are' still languishing in1
captivity, and much anxiety is ien
on their behalf: for. unless the' local
Judgos take a lenient view of their
olloHcos on account 01 their youw,
they have but a poor chance of re
suming their pdsition in sooiety. Al
togothor it is a sad story, and it is
not surprising that these young
people and their misfortunes have of
fate been the talk of Trebizond.
