After hearing the casts we think the verdict and the sentence considering the time the raau has Iain in that nuisance called a jail about ns near right as could well be, but then as a few weeks more of confinement for the prisoner can not materially benefit him or anyone else we thfnU the Judge should have remitted iheunishment.-thereby re storing Wells to his family and giv ing him a chance to go to work to provide for then), an4 relieving thp couuty qf further eupeuse iu Xbat majter.
