There has listed considerable misappr. hension relative to the law of ihe !at Legislature concerning the jurisdictiou of magistrate , which has been corrected since the laws have been issned. It was understood among 1-wjers a? d jastice- from ntwt paper reports that anong tbe acts pasd was ore givii g magis tia'eJ final jurisdiction in cases of aault with a deadly weapon where i-o damage was done. They hv heen in mny caes acting according ly, and without auihoiiiy The sole jurisdiction cf fina' nature gi anted is in the following: Abai donment of wife and children; failure to pro vid for fn-ily; neglect of duty b. oversreis f f roid ; peddling with out 'icenBP; hun'ing on Suoday; live steel, running at large; mif-appropri ati in if money by impounding of live stock: rceiving or leasing live stock; irjnrii:g fences or leaving gates open in live Block districts; trespassing; wildful diiving cr riding stock over cultivated lands. It is highly impoi tant t' at the n ai tiates and attor neys should be fully inforroed in these maiteiv. Exchange. Another lmbit of animals that has attracted i. nrh attention and has called foith ui iny explanations, all of wh'ch are mor or less satisfactory, is the ciotvL g of cocks at midnight. In the hrt place, there is not much dependence to he put in the cock ns a time-keeper. His crowing in the night time varies with the season?, his going to roott, etc. The explan ation of the cuse of his crowing is founded cn a physiological function. Stand near a chickiu rooft tin!y in the night hi d jou will h ar a coutin uons ta'tbng sound roiuing from the foli. Thiii sou' d is produc d by the muscles cf tbe gizzard in grind ing the fo d in them. As the mus cles .gitae and trituiate the gtavel and sand that tbe fowls bave swal lowed to aid digestion, the sound is given off. In about six or seven bonis after goit g to roost the sound eeaees. 1 hiB indicates that digestion s finished. The fowls are now ready lotukeatound sleep. They cele brate the event by crowing, cackling, i-haking oat tLeir feathers and then settling dowu to roost for another and sounder sh ep. Sometimes the crowine i- heard at ii regular ir.ter val . Ti is ia probably because of a lack of food or imperfect digestion. It is generally caused, no doubt, by he-difference in time in which differ ent individuals complete tho work of diystion These last two observa tions are net given as conclusive or Jb al, bin. as the h stexplan ti n that can Ht present be thought of for a natural, henomenon. It is a fact, however, that the work of digestion is seldom heard after the night time crovii'?.
