THE POPULAE EDUCATOR. 



Justice. The studious who have opportunity will do well to 

 seek the judgment there ; but we have all an interest in the 

 gist of what he said, and that can be reproduced without such 

 careful search. He laid it down as law that the fines were 

 illegal, and that the imprisonment consequent on them was 

 necessarily illegal also. But he went on still further, and 

 declared in effect that the Recorder had improperly refused to 

 receive the verdict of the jury, and that the jury had an unques- 

 tionable right to give what verdict they pleased, the remedy for 

 a stupid verdict being in the discretion of a judge to order a new 

 trial on the ground of the verdict being contrary to the evidence ; 

 and for a corrupt verdict, in the power of any one to prosecute 

 a juryman for perjury if committed wilfully in the course of his 

 duty as a juryman. 



As the law was thus settled it has remained ever since, few 

 occasions having arisen in which the rights of juries have been 

 imperilled. To Edward Bushell and his fellow-citizens we are 

 directly indebted for the establishment of the law upon this most 

 satisfactory footing ; and the occasion seemed to us so full of 

 interest, and the principle gained so full of importance, that we 

 have thought fit to make them the subject of this number of 

 our Historic Sketches. 



SYNOPSIS OF EVENTS IN THE LIFE AND REIGN OF 



CHARLES II. 



Charles II., the second son of Charles I. and Henrietta Maria 

 of France, was the twenty-sixth king of England after the 

 Norman Conquest, and the third of the Stuart Dynasty. He 

 married a Portuguese princess, Catherine of Braganza, who 

 brought him as her dower Tangier, in Morocco ; Bombay, in 

 Hindostan or India ; and .300,000 in money. The first-named 

 town was abandoned, in 1683, as a place not worth the expense 

 of holding by an armed force ; while the second, now the capital 

 of one of the five presidencies of British India, was handed over 

 to the East India Company for a small annual quit-rent.

LESSONS IN GERMAN XXV. 



SECTION XLVII. ADJECTIVES BEQUIBING THE 

 GENITIVE. 



ADJECTIVES in German that require the genitive, generally 

 answer to our adjectives followed by the preposition "of " ( 124), 

 as : 3cf> bin ber @acfje genriji, I am sure of the matter. (5r tft feiner 

 ^flictyt etngcbenf, he is mindful of his duty. <Ste finb beiner Steunb* 

 ftyaft unttmtbtg, they are unworthy of thy friendship. They are 

 sometimes best rendered by adjectives followed by the preposi- 

 tion " with " or " to," as : (5r tft beS SBegcS funbig, he is ac- 

 quainted with (has knowledge of) the road. $$ tft ntcb. t be- ^Oiuf e 

 toert&,, it ia not worth the trouble. 



Some of these adjectives are also used with the accusative 

 ( 124. 2. 06s.), as : 3$ Inn ba8 eb,en nidjt getooljnt, I am not 

 accustomed to walking. S'r tft e3 mube, he is tired of it.
