TUB OPELIKA TRAGEDY-SEVERAL
CORRESPONDENTS ANSWERED.
BISHOP HAVEN AND THE CATHOLIC
CHURCH IN MEXICO.
There was one part of Bishop Haven’s re
ally excellent, instructive and eloquent lec
ture on Mexico, which onr rej orter, probably
from a desire not to wound the feelings of
any one, did not refer to, and which we deeply
regret was spoken. We mean th «t part in
which the able speaker indulged in a little of
the stereotyped abase of the Catholic Church.
Bishop Haven has certainly lived long enough
in Mexico to know that the Catholic Church
is in no way responsible for the unfortunate
condition of the country. Whatever of edu
cation, of religion, and of civilization are to
be found in Mexico, are due to that church.
As long as the church party retained power,
Mexico progressed; the moment revolution
drove them ont and the anarchists took pos
session the country retrograded.
Mexico is cursed by a set of men who can
not comprehend modern progress; who care
nothing about religion in any form or shape;
whose civilization is that of the bandit,
and whose government is anarchy. They
hate the Catholic Church because it will
not tolerate licentiousness, robbery, mur
der and anarchy; and the moment the
Church party pregains power they combine
together, overthrow it and inaugurate another
era of misrule and misery. Factions renew
their hatred of each other, and a series of
revolutions follow in rapid succession,
paralyzing industry, forbidding enter-
prize, and driving backwards into barbarism
one of the most fertile and beautiful countries
on tlfe face of the earth.
For years the Church party has been impo
tent, and yet what has been the result. Ex
cepting to plunder the Catholic churches,
plunder the citizens, and get up revolutions,
the so-called Liberal leaders have done
nothing. It is, of course, quite natural for
Bishop Havens to desire the conversion of all
Mexicans to Protestantism; but he can cher
ish this desire without doing injustice to a
rival church. It is quite possible that some
of the Mexican priests are iguorant, and some
even licentious men; but it is equally possible
that some Protestant preachers are ignorant
and impure. It is, however, scarcely fair to
charge the church with the offenses of a few.
When this is done it becomes intolerance and
bigotry, and we condemn the spirit that gen
erates these qualities as unworthy of the age
we live in.
What Mexico needs is not conversion from
the Catholic Church ; but a strong
centralized government, such as j oor
Maximilian tried to give her, and
would have given her but for the influence of
the United States Government She stands
in need of a ruler who will hang or shoot
every miscreant who starts on a career of
robberry, murder and rapiue in the name of
liberty. When she obtains such a man it is
not altogether impossible that the Catholic
Church will be found aiding in the work of
making the country prosperous and happy,
in spreading the blessings of education and
in inculcating in the minds of the youth of
Mexico a knowledge of those arts and sciences
which have made our civilization so grand.
We repeat oar regret that the Bishop Haven
should have yielded to sectarian prejudices,
and thus partly marred the effect of a lecture
otherwise so instructive and entertaining.
For our part we have alluded to the matter not
from any sec'arian bias; because the Herald
has no prejudices in favor of any church. Our
motives has been to dispel any erroneous im
pression which may have been formed by
Bishop Haven’s discourse. We have been a
careful and attentive student of Mexican
history, and are familiar with all the events
which have transpired in that wretched re
public; and while we do not say that the
church party has been altogether blameless,
we do assert, from a thorough knowledge of
all the causes of quarrel and dissension,
that had it remained in power, Mexico would
this day be the peer of the United States.
We have received numerous letters request
ing ns to explain the Hooper-Phillips affair
at Opelika, the waiters not having read the
letter giving an account of the killing. The
facts are simply these: On the evening of
the killing we received a dispatch from Opeli
ka, which stated that Hooper bad shot Mr.
Phillips because the latter had “circulated
reports injurious to the character of an esti
mable young iady.” As all reports which
tend to injure the character of an estimable
person are necessarily slanders, we concluded
that Mr. Phillips had slandered the young
lady, and thereupon we proceeded to write
an srticle justifying Hooper.
However, before the article was priuted we
received a letter from Opelika, written by one
of the most prominent citizens of the town,
which gave to the tragedy an entirely differ
ent appearance. The writer gave an account
of the origin of the difficulty, as he had
heard it. He stated that Mr. Phillips had
been a witness of improper conduct on the
part of Hooper and the young lady; that be
had remonstrated with Hooper and
that consequently the story of his
improprieties became current; that be
charged Phillips with having circu
lated it; that Phillips denied having done so,
but attributed its circulation to some negroes
who had also seen the parties together, and
that finding something bad to be done to
silence the scandal, Hooper killed Phillips.
In the testimony given by Mr. Boss this
statement is repeated in every particular,
with some additions not fit for publication.
Another witness swore that he had seen the
parties together, and had heard them engage
in the .most immoral conversation; that sub
sequently Hooper had admitted to him his
improper conduct with the young woman in
question. Whether true or not, we cannot
say, but the testimony as given in the pre
liminary examination was infinitely more
damaging than anything written by our cor
respondent.
It seems, however, that public feeling in
Opelika had been (as it still is,) very much
against Hooper; and the defense, probably
for the want of something better, tried to get
up an excitement over our correspondents
letter. “Opelika’s” letter was denounced as
“indecent,” and he was charged with having
grossly slandered the young lady, notwith
standing the fact that he had merely
made public the scandal which led
to the killing, without naming
the young lady and without making any
charge whatever against her. The object evi
dently was to direct public attention from
Hooper and direct it to the young woman, and
an obscure penny-a-line newspaper at Opelika
was enlisted in the dirty work. The Hebald>
however, declined to become a party to any
such project. It was base, it was unmanly
and it was nnchivalric, to thus attempt to
thrust forward an unfortunate girl, already
given a sad notoriety, and use her as a screen
for Hooper. Whereupon the penny-a-liner
tried to provoke us into a row, by making ugly
faces at us and calling the Herald hard names.
But as there was no manner of necessity for us
to prove our war like and beligerent qualities,
wa declined to knock the chip off the shoulder
of the irate penny-a-liner, and treated his ab
surdities with contempt, and he is probably
biting his thumb with rage at this writing,
and awaiting, cocked revolver in hand, forth©
day when we shall visit Opelika and give him
an opportunitj' to “Hooper” us in the name of
slandered innocence and the Hooper family.
Wherefore it is that we have determine^, not
to visit Opelika for some time; since we under
stand that the judiciary in Alabama is rascally
radical.
Our correspondents can now understand the
case. It may be proper to add, as an indica
tion of public sentiment in Opelika, that since
the publication of our correspondents letter
we have added more than forty names to onr
list of daily subscribers there, and not one of
the old subscribers has stopped his paper.
and the defendant excepted. In our judg
ment it was tho province and duty of the
Court to control the entries on its own docket,
and if incorrectly made to have the same cor
rected, which the Court did by reinstating
the case on the docket. But, while we do
not control the action of tho Court in regu
lating the entries on its docket, it is not to be
understood that the defendant is to be con
cluded on the trial of the case, by the action
of the Court in .reinstating it on the docket,
from pleading and proving the alleged agree
ment and settlement of the case, and that it
was to be dismissed in pursuance r *t the al
leged agreement, provided he « au do so, and
that the entry was in fact made on the docket
in pursuance of that agreement between the
parties. Let the judgment of the Court be
low be affirmed.

mond, for defendant.
Fleming Jordan, Solicitor General, vs. E. W.
Baynes et nl. Forfeiture of bond, from
Jasper.
WARREN, C. J.
It appears from the record in this case that
the bond of one Digby, who was indicted for
murder, and his securities had been forfeited,
scire facias was issued thereon against the
securities, and whilst the same was pending
and before judgment, the General Assembly
passed an Act relieving the securities from
all liability on said bond on the payment of
all costa. The defendants having pleaded the
Act to the scire facias pending against them,
the Court decided that the securities should
be discharged from their liability on 6aid
bond upon their paying to the Solicitor Gen
eral the sum of five dollars for his costs, and
the Court costs due on tho scire facias.
Whereupon the Solicitor General expected.
In our judgment tho Solicitor General was
entitled to the five dollars allowed him by
law for the proceeding by scire facias to en
force the recognizance, and no more, except
such fees as are allowed him by law’ to be
taxed as Court costs, and which the secu
rities were bound to pay under the Act.
The Solicitor General claims that he had a
vested right iu the bond to the amount of five
per cent of the sum due thereoD, of which
the General Assembly, by tho passage of the
Act in question, could not deprive him. This
was a debt due to the State, and not a debt
due to the Solicitor General, either in his
official capacity or otherwise, and being a
debt due to the State, it was competent for
the General Assembly to relieve the securities
from the payment of it on such terms as
they might deem proper. There was no
judgment on the scire facias, and if there had
been, it is not perceived how they could have
vested in the .Solicitor General a right to re
ceive five per cent, on tho amount of the
bond. The law gives to him as his fees for
any amount collected on proceedings to enforce
a recognizance five per cent., as au officer of
the State, and that is all.
Let the judgment of the Court below ba af
firmed.
Fleming Jordan, Solicitor General, for
plaintiff in error.
C. L. Bartlet, for defendants.
THE PRESS IN FRANCE.
Marshal MacMahon’s government has com
mitted its first blunder in snppressing one
newspaper and proposing to subsidize others,
le Corsaire, the paper suppressed, was a
red Republican organ, the delight of the
Communists and the joy of the Sans Culloites.
Its suppression, will make the fortune of the
proprietor*. They will briDg it ont under
Le something else, and everybody will rush
to buy it. Nothing delights a French oppo
sition editor so much as to suppress his jour
nal; nothing else so quickly makes him a
popular ideal. When Rochefoit first pub
lished La Lanleme, it was scarcely read; but
the moment the police suppressed one edition,
it became famous. Everybody was anxious
to read it, and the consequence was, that its
brntal witticisms; its filthy inuendoes against
os pure a woulan as the Empress Eugenie;
and its scandalous attacks upon the Impe-
rialiat leaders, were read by thousands. Its
unwise suppression mads Rochefort’s fortune,
and gave him an influence he did not de
serve, and a power which finally sent him to
the Assembly with that poetical lunatic, Victor
Hugo.
There is no power in France so great as that
of the press; no individual so powerful as the
editor. France te, in fact, the Paradise of
journalists. This influence, however, is lim
ited to the opposition press. French admin
istration organs and their editors seldom or
never possess influence with the masses, be
cause they are invariably subsidised. It is
°®*7 *fcen, as with do Cassagnac, the imperi
alist. journalist, the editor is a man who backs
his words with his sword that he becomes per
sonally influential. Tho proposition of Mac-
Mahon's Minister of the Interior to subsidise
the press will consequently fail to help his
government. It will, however, if carried into
effect, show on what side the President
leans—whether Bonapartist or Legitimist.
Miss Mink, the woman accused of the mur
der of Dr. Baker, in Maine, refused to leave
the oonrt-room at the close of her examina
tion, and the officers were compelled to take
her oat by force.
Some disappointed juniors at Yale have
started a rival fSkull and Bones, using the
same name and pin, but, to avoid difficulties,
adding the mystic number 135 to the ioecrip-
iion upon the latter.
Supreme Court Decisions.
Delivered at Atlanta, June 10, 1873.
AS OFFICIALLY REPORTED BY CAPTAIN HENRY
JACKSON, SUPREME COURT REPORTER.
Sarah E. Kenuan vs. Thomas Johnson. In
junction, from Baldwin.
WARNER, C. J.
This was a bill filed by the complainant
against the defendants as executor and exe
cutrix of A. H. Kenan, deceased, to marshal
the assets of the estate of the testator, al
leging the same to be insolvent, and praying
for an injunction, and that the defendant,
Sarah E. Kenan, the widow and executrix of
the deceased, be enjoined from proseenting
her claim for dower out of the land of which
her deceased husband died, seized and pos
sessed at the time of his death. The defendant,
Sarah E. Kenaii, answered the complainant’s
bill and showed cause why the injunction
should not be granted restraining her from
prosecuting her claim for dower. The Court,
on t ie hearing of the motion for the injunc
tion granted the same, and the widow except
ed to that part of the order which restrained
her from prosecutiug her claim for dower.
The only allegation made in the complain
ant’s bill in bar of her right to dower, is that
“said Sarah E. Kenan, widow, executrix, and
legatee as aforesaid, after possessing and en
joying the assets of said estate to a large
amount in excess of her lawful dower, and
wasting the same by pleading, and otherwise,
hath made application to the Superior Court
to set apart her dower in said estate.” This
allegation is expressly denied by the defend
ant in her answer, which was not contradicted
at the bearing. But, independent of the de
fendant’s answer, there is nothing alleged in
the complainant’s bill, (considering tbe will
of tbe testator as a part thereof) which, un
der the law of this State, would have barred
the widow of her legal right to dower in the
land of her deceased husband.—Code, 1754.
Equity is ancillary, not antagonistic to the
law ; hence equity follows the law where the
rule of law is applicable, and the analogy of
the law, where no rulo is directly applicable.
Code 3024. The widow of the deceased tes
tator had the legal right to her dower in one-
third part of the land of which her husband
died, seized and possessed at the time of
his death, unless that right was barred in the
manner prescribed by the law. There being
nothing alleged in tne complainant’s bill,
which, under the law, would bar her of her
dower, the Court below erred in restraining
her by injunction from prosecuting her legal
right to have it assigned to her.
Let the judgment of the Court below be
reversed.
Wm. McKinley, for plaintiff in error.
Crawford A Williamson, for defendant.
E. W. Baynes vs. Joel A. Billups, Adminis
trator. Motion, from Jasper.
WARNER, C. J.
In this case there was an entry made on the
bench docket of the Superior Court m the
handwriting of the presiding Judge opposite
the case, “Dismissed by order of plaintiff's
attorney, October term, 1870,” and also the
following entry thereon: “Received the
Clerk’s cost in the opposite case, signed by
the Clerk of the Court. At the August term
of the Court, 1872, the plaintiff's attorney
made a motion to set aside said entry of dis
missal on the docket, on the ground that it
was an error and unauthorized. The defend
ant in the case objected, and made a motion
to enter a judgment of dismissal, by order of
plaintiff’s attorney on the minutes of the
Court nunc pro tunc, which the Court refused
and the defendant excepted. The defendant
then tendered an issue denying that said en
try of dismissal was an error and unauthor
ized, but that the same was made under an
agreement and understanding between the
defendant, plaintiff and plaintiffs attorney,
that if defendant would pay the earn of
$2,700 00 on the notes sued on, it should op
erate ae a payment and settlement oi the
whole debt of $5,400 00, and that said case
should be dismissed. The * Court refused to
allow the issue tendered to be tried by a jury,
Augustus Studdard vs. Samuel Lemons.
Claim, from Morgan.
WARNER, C. J.
^This was a claim case which was tried iu
the Court below, and a verdict finding the
lland levied on subject to the plaintiff’s execu
tion . A motion was made for a new trial,
which was overruled, and the claimant .ex
cepted. The plaintiff levied an attachment
on the defendant’s land on the 8th of Decem
ber, 1800, obtained judgment thereon 10th
March, 1871, execution issued upon that
judgment and was levied on the land 29th
August, 1871. The claimant 'purchased the
land at a United States Marshal’s sale and
claims title under tho Marshal’s deed to him,
dated 7th February, 1871. The judgment
under which the Marshal sold tbe land was
obtained in the United States District Court
29th September, 1808, execution issued there
on 2d November, 1808, and was levied by the
Marshal on the land, 7th January, 1871, and
sold by him 7th February, 1871. The ven
dor’s lien and the homestead questions, both
being out of the case, the only question made
before this Court on the argument was as to
the validity of the Marshal’s levy on the land
when it had already been levied on by an at
tachment issued by the Stato Court. The judg
ment obtained in United States District Court
is of older dato than the date of the levy of
the U. States District Court execution by the
Marshal. This question does not appear to
have been made or decided in the Court be
low, but it appears from the evidence in the
Jrecord of the plaintiff in the attachment,
judgment was present at the Marshal’s sale,
where the claimant purchased tho land, and
took no proceedings to prevent l he sale of the
land under the Marshal’s levy, n.ir made any
objections thereto; and the Marshal having
sold the land apparently under the prescribed
forms of law in satisfaction of the oldest judg
ment lien against the defendant, the claimant
as a purchaser at that sale obtained a good
title to the land, although there may have
been an irregularity in making the levy on the
land by the Marshal, when the land had been
previously attached by process from the Stato
Court—Code 2586. In our judgment the
Court below erred in overruling the motion
for a new trial, in view of the facts disclosed
in tbe record. Let the judgment of the court
below be reversed.
|Reese A Reese for plaintiff in error.
JA. G. A F. C. Foster for defendant in
p!rror.
T. G. Campbell vs. The State. Misdemeanor,
from McIntosh.
WARNER, C. J.
The defendant was indicted for the offense
of false imprisonment, in that he issued a
warrant of commitment, as a Justice of the
Peace, against one Fisher, who was alleged to
have been in contempt of the Justices’s Court
in not paying the costs of a criminal prosecu
tion which bad been instituted in said Justice’s
Court, and ordering tho said Fisher to
stand committed until the costs were paid,
and who was committed to tho common jail
of the county under said order and warrant.
On tho trial the defendant, under the charge
of the Court to the jury, was found guilty.
Various exceptions were taken to tho rulings
of the Court in the progress of the trial,
which are now assigned for error here. The
4300th section of tho Code declares that
“The arrest, confinement, or detention of a
person or citizen, by the warrant, mandate, or
process of a magistrate, being manifestly il
legal, and showing malice, and oppression,
the said Magistrate shall be removed from
office; and such Magistrate, and all and every
person or persons knowingly and maliciously
concerned therein, shall be punished,” etc.
The motion for a continuance of tho case,
was properly overruled, in view of the facts
disclosed in the record. Then the panel of
forty-eight jnrois was put upon the defend
ant, he challenged the array on the ground
that the jarors were not drawn according to
law. This challenge to the array necessarily
involved the twenty-four jurors who had been
empaneled by the Court, and who constituted
a part of the panel of the forty eight put upon
the defendant. Were they drawn and organ*
ized according to law ? It appears from the
record, that on the 28tli of February, 1872,
the presiding Judge of the Circuit
passed an order appointing Commis
sioners to revise tho jury box of
McIntosh county. It also appears that
the jury box for that county had been
revised by the Commissioners on the 13th
Jane, 1870, and that two years had not ex
pired up to tho time of the order of the Judge
to revise it, but whether other juries had
been drawn for the April Term of the Court
as provided by an Act of 1869, tho record
does not inform us. But it does appear in
the record, that after revising tho jury box
under tho order of the* Court, the Commis
sioners, and tho Ordinary, with the Clerk,
did proceed to draw grand and petit jurors
for the next approaching term of the April
Adjourned Court, on the 14th day of March,
1872. This we presume was done under the
provisions of the third section of the Act
of 1869. Whether that jury was legally
drawn or not, we ore unable to say from
the confused and unsatisfactory state
ment of facts disclosed by the record.
But conceding tho juries wero regularly and
legally drawn, tho next question that arises
in the case is as to tho legal power and au
thority of tbe-Court to purge that jury in the
manner disclosed by tho record, and to com-
p 1 tbe defendant to solect his jury from the
twenty-four so purged and composing a part
of the panel of the forty-eight ? It appears
from the record that on the first day of the
Court, and after the Court had been organ
ized, a motion was made to have the jurv
purged to ascertain whether they were intel
ligent and upright jurors. The Court ap
pointed a committee of throe to toko out And
examine the jarors to see if they came up to
the standard stated by the Court, to-wit:
Whether they could read the Constitution of
the United States and the Constitution of this
State, and write. After the committee had
privately examined tho jarors, they reported
to the Court that there wero eight oolored
men and two white men who oould not read
and write according to the views of the Court.
Whereupon the Court excused them from
serving at that term of the Court, and
ordered the Sheriff to fill up the panels with
jarors from the jury list who could come up
to the standard as ruled by the Court, which
was done. The twenty-four jurors, thus
purged by the order of the Court, constituted
a part of tho panel of the forty-eight put up
on the defendant, instead of those selected
by the Ordinary, Clerk of the Superior Court,
and the three Commissioners, and drnwt^
from the jury box to serve as jurors for that
term of the Court. The law gives to the
officers specified in the Act of 1809 the
power and authority to judge of and to
select from the book of the Receiver ot
Tax Returns, “upright and intelligent per
sons” to serve as jurors, and not the
Superior Court or the Judge thereof. The
challenge to the array of the jarors put
upon the defendant in this case was well
taken and should have been allowed by the
Court, and it was error to compel him to se
lect his jury therefrom. Ten of the jarors
constituting the panel put upon the defend
ant wero not selected and drawn according
to law’ for tho reasons before stated and that
was a distinct ground of challenge made to
them. The defendant was indicted under
the 4300 section of the Code for false im
prisonment, under color of legal process, as
specified in that section. He was not in
dicted under the 4132 section for malpractice
in office as Justice of the Peace, and, there
fore, was not entitled to the right of appear
ing and being heard before the grand jury
when the bill of indictment was found
against him.
The Court charged the jury, amongst
other things: “If you find from the testi
mony and the warrant that it was manifestly
illegal, the law presumes malice, as the law
presumes every officer knows the law, and
will act in comformity thereto iu the issuing
of any warrant, mandate, or process.” This
charge of the Court, in view of the statute
under which the defendant was indicted, was
error. The warrant of commitment must
not only have been manifestly illegal, but
the arrest, confinement and detention of
Fisher under it should have been shown to
have been malicious and oppressive. The
law does not presume malice against a judi
cial officer because he renders an illegal
judgment, or because, in the discharge of his
official functions, he does an illegal act; nor
does the statute under w’hich tbe defendant
was indicted so contemplate. The arrest,
confinement and detention of a person by
the warrant, mandate, or process oi a magis
trate being manifestly illegal and showing
malice and oppression, are the words of the
statute. The law docs not presume malice
against the magistrate from his mere illegal
act in issuing the warrant of commitment,
but that presumption may arise from his
conduct when taken in connection therewith.
Let the judgment of the Court below be re-1
versed.

Macon and Augusta Railroad Company vs.
Clayton Vaughn. Case, from Baldwin/
McCAY, J.
When in a suit, against a Railroad Company,
for killing the plaintiff’s mule by the negligent
running of its trains, it .appeared that the mule
was found dead near the tracks one morning,
under circumstances indicating that it had
been killed by the train, which had passed
that way during the. previous night, aud it
further appeared, that the place w here the mule
was killed w’as in a field, into which the plain
tiff had turned it, with other stock, to graze,
and that said field was a common enclosure of
the plaintiff's land and the railroad track—the
plaintiff’s fence on two sides, running over the
right-of-w’ay to the track, and with cattle pits
across the track:
Held, That under such circumstances the
railroad company was not liable for killing
the mule, unless there was some actual neg
ligence of the persons managing the train,
and it appearing affirmatively by the evidence,
(without contradiction) that there was no
negligence or want of care, aud the jury hav
ing found for the plaintiff, the Judge ought to
have granted a new trial.

Motion to be argued during the present
term of the Supremo Court of Georgia when!
the case comes up in order. Judge Warner !
is opposed to having the question of jurisdic

are willing to hear the question of jurisdiction
and not to allow mandate of tho Supreme
Court of the United Stales to bo entered on
the docket until after the argument of the

There was considerable interest manifested
iu this case, and other poiuls were made by

A. J. S. Jackson, Guardian, vs. Samuel C.
Hitchcock, Certiorari, from Greene.
McCAY, J.
Samuel C. Hitchcock having been appoint
ed guardian of Isby Hudson, by tho Ordinary
of Sumter county, moved his guardianship iu
terms of the law to Hancock county. On the
arrival of Hudson to the age of fourteen years,
Hitchcock was, by petition, removed on the
ground that Hudson was now’ fourteen years
old, and had chosen another guardian. This
was done in the county of Hancock. Soon
after, A. J. S. Jackson was appointed guardi
an of Hudson, whose residence was then in
Greene county.
Jackson, tho new guardiaD, cited Hitch
cock, who resided in Fulton county, before
the Ordinary of Greeno county to account.
Hitchcock acknowledged servicetof the citation
but did not appear, and on an exparte hear
ing tho Ordinary gave a judgement against ^ o OM ^ n
Hitchcock. An execution was issued and I mile* froin^Monristownr'BL ?!

1. It is not orror in tho Judge of tho Supe
rior Court to refuso to conlinue a criminal
case on tho ground of tho nbsence of a wit
ness, it not appearing teat the witness has
been snbpmnaea, and no reason is given why
he was not.
2. When, on a motion for now trial, one of
the grounds insisted on was, that one of the
jury who tried the cause was asleep during
a portion of the trial, and no affidavits were
filed with the motion, but it wits proposed to
show by parol, at the hearing, that such was
the fact, and the Court refnsed to hear tho
witnesses, and refused also tho new trial.
Held, That the proofs ought to be made
as a part of the motion, in writing, by affida
vits attached, and that a new trial ought not,
in any event, to be granted on such a ground
unless it affirmatively appeared lhat tho pris
