These tickets are sold on Saturday and are good until -Monday. Cou'd not the officials of the Railroads centering in this city adopt a similar plan? Travel would thereby be increased and the merchants of this city would be materially benefitted. It looks to us as though it 'would be mutually beneficial all around. Tnermometrical.

Lippincott'8 Magazine for Marcb opens with a description of the Lakes of Minnesota, with their healthful and pic turesaue lummer resorts, which are al ready j much frequented ly Northern i tourists, and wbicb, judging from this article and its attractive illustratf&DB, deserves to be better known. There are two other illustrated papers in the num ber, the IXth Chapter of Dr. Oswald's 'Sujomerland Sketches,' which treats of Yucatan, and the conclusion of Edward King's account of 'Old and New Rouen.' 'The American Suez1 is the title of an article which will be read with special interest, on account of the subject, and the able summary which it gives of the arguments for and against each of the proposed routes f jr a canal to connect the waters of the Gulf of Mexico with those of the Pacific Ocean. The writer shows' a personal familiarity with the country, and the maps inssrtdd in the text will do much to assist the reader in forming an opinion on this vexed question. Another timely taper is devoted to the Ute Matter,' and evi dently emanates from Colorado, where the feeling on the subject is naturally strongest, And the decision of Congress and tha Government is awaited with im patience. 'At the Foot of the Sierras is not a mere descriptive article but con tains some capital sketches of life and manners in the most beautiful region of the West, ! i i i The well-written and suggestive des cription of 'Decorative Art and it) Dogmas' by M G Van Rensselaer, is con cluded in th;s number.

' , . j 1 he Trial of J jhn Gradj. The examination of the witnesses in the case of John Gra ly, now on trial for murder, was commenced this morning. Col. Duncan E. McRae and Mr. John L. Holmes are the counsel for the defend, and Mr. Solicitor Moore is conducting tbe prosecution for the State. A consid erable interest Is manifested and the court room is crowded by p-rtons who have either been drawn there by curiosity or who have been summoned as witnesses. Atlhe hour of closing our report Ool. McRae for the defence and Mr. Solicitor Moore for the prosecution, were discuss ing a point of law as to the admisability of written evidence taken before the cor oner's jury. The exam ication of witness es will come to a close about five o'clock it is thought, when the argument of coud sel will begin. EYen So. We publish the following from an ex change for the benefit of some of our recalcitrating readers: "If your local paper happens to tread on your toes a little in performing its mission, don't get your back up and abuse its editor, but stop and take a good breath and think for a season, and see if yon can't remember some of the farors and kindnesses it has shown vou in the past.

The verdict of the jury in the case of Maria Hall, convicted of manslaughter, wes a surprise to most persons who heard the evidence in tbe case. The murder of which she was convicted is thought te have been premeditated end deliberate. Since tbe jury was empanelled it has been ascertained that two of the number were opposed to capital punishment and one, perhaps two, of the other jurors were rienda of the woman and had been very intimate with her. When the jury left tbe box and retired to their room, a vote was taken which resulted in seven for murder and five for manslaughter. Thus stood matters until yesterday morning, when one of tbe number, who at first fa vored a verdict of murder, obaBged his vote to manslaughter, making the jury stand. sxx to s;;. Maria Hall's friends and, those who were opposed to capital pun iahment stood firm, and a compromise was ma le and a verdict of manslaughter waa returned for one of tH most delibsr- at murders ever committed in this city. !
