Three gamblers were convicted at the late term Of the Circuit Court in Hampstead coun- ty-and several others fearing the same fate, went and confessed judgment before a justice of the peace. Those who were convicted were fined Sl00 eaeh.-The others paid S3o each.

 Two decisions have been made by the su- preme Court of Missouri, which must have had very salutary effect in scattering such gentry. One is, ssthat an indictment for bet ting at Faro need not contain nor set out the nature of the game--noF the name ofthe per son with whom the bet wes made" Another is, that a witness who stands indicted for the seape oGenee, is compelled to give testimony, although he states that his epideaee may lead to his ofon couuiction. The latter decision is, in our view, little iaitd.
