Houston Court has- been en¬
gaged, this week, on the equity
docket. The criminal doqkct was
closed last week. The case of Joe
Hall for murder was tried and jury
returned a verdict of voluntary
manslaughter. The sentence will
be 20 years in the penitentiary.—
The case of Green Thurman for
same offense was dismissed—sub¬
ject to call again at any time evi¬
dence to convict may bo obtained.
He was turned loose. The result
of these trials is very unsatisfacto¬
ry to the people of Crawford, but
there can be nothing said against
the jury in the ease. They cer¬
tainly did what they believed jus
tice required in the premises. We
leam that the attorneys will appeal
the Joe Hall case.

Hitchcock’s Analysis of the Bible.
Mr. L. D. Lockhart is the agent
of Dr. Hitchcock’s complete analy
sis of the Holy Bible, which is sold
only by subscription. He will call
on our people to secure their sub¬
scription. The following certifi¬
cate, from gentlemen who have
examined the work, is a sufficient
guarantee of its worth:
We, the undersigned, take pleas
ure in calling the attention of bible
readers to Dr. Hitchcock’s com¬
plete analysis of the Holy Bible
in its old and new testament di
visions. This analysis meets the
wants of all classes of readers__
Arranged according to the sub¬
jects, and designed to faciliate the
study, and promote the better un¬
derstanding of the word of God,
ministers of the gospel and sab¬
bath school teachers, with this
analysis, are armed and equipped
as they never have been before.—
The study of the word is made
comparatively easy in its arrange¬
ment of subjects, doctrines, ordi¬
nances, duties and history. Cru
dan’s Concordance embelishes the
work, also a pronouncing diction¬
ary of scriptural proper names,
with tables of scripture measures,
weights, and coins, with full ex¬
planations. The work abounds
with a dictionary of religious de
nominations, sects,parties and . as
Koeiations in the world, a history of
tho Bible and a family record.

sold, handsomely and well bound, in cloth for §10, in half morocco for

all precedent in book publishing, may be fairly claimed to inaugurate a
Literary Revolution, Universal Knowledge is reprint

Leading principles of the American Book Exchange :
I. Publish only books of real value.
II. Work upon the basis of present eost of making books, about one
half what it was a few year? ago.
III. Sell to buyers direct, and save them the 50 to CO per cent, com¬
mission commonly allowed to dealers.
IV. The cost of the books when made 10,000 at a time is but a fraction
tho cost when made 500 a* a time—adopt the low price and sell the
large quantity. do carefullly printing, and
V. Use good type, -paper, ete., strong, neat
binding, but avoid binding, all “padding,” which fat commonly and heavily-leaded type, spongy pa¬
per and gaudy are so resorted to make books ap¬
pear large and fine, and which greatly add to their cost, but do not add
to their value.
VI. To make $1 and a friend is better than to make §5 and an enemy.
