RUTHEBFOED B. HAYES, Of Ohio. -yyHajABI A. WHEEIiEE, Of New Tork. The Jadgesblp Contest.

This week will practically close the question or the Republican nomination for Jndge of this District. The Chief, according to promise, has made it interesting, as the season advanced. That it has been interesting to Jndge Hubbard, is evidenced by the fact that he and his bummers baTe confined their efforts almost exclusively to abusing the Chitf and its editor instead of producing the evioenre and the records to refate the damaging facte which we have charged against him. We have stated only facte, and have proven them. The desperate strait in which Hubbard finds himself, is shown by the wild and almost insane course of himself and bis paid supporters.

i false, reckless, malicious, inconsistent, senseless stories they circulate, as the occasion seems to demand, are unworthy of the lowest down demagogue. The Hiawatha Retold, of last week, had four mortal columns of incoherent, Jumbled up stuff, without system or connection. It bears the ear-marks of having been furnished by Hubbard hmiself, with interpolations by the editor of the Retold, which do not alter the character of the article, but are readily perceived by the reader, much upon the same principle that amid a blended conglomeration of wretched stiuks, the odor of a barrel of rotten fish can be distinguished from that of a salivated out-housc. To attempt to answer it, wonld be a fntile task. Nobody short of a pile doctor of many years' practice could successfully handle the subject.

This article, all through, is stuffed with abuse of the editor of the Cliff and C. W. Johnson. It opens with a malignant attack upon Judge Price, asserting that he left a foul docket, comprising nearly all his knotty cases, for Jndgo Hubbard to decide. It is a matter of fact, that the dockets of the District are just now fouler with long continued cases than they were ever known before.

The article goes on in its tirade of reckless assertion, falsifying the Supreme Court Reports of several States, in order to make it appear that Hubbard is as able a Jndge as they have anywhere. It also proves, to its own satisfaction, that the Supreme Judges of Kansas and Illinois are fools, and that Hubbard is their peer. In the Hiawatha Ditpatck we find another disgraceful argument. It is an appeal to the farm ers on the Kickapoo Reserve to come to tue support of Hubbard, because ho is disposed to decide their suite with the Railroad Company in their favor. Hubbard himself has also made the plea to fanners, that the lawyers are down on him because he has been in the habit of deciding foreclosures and other land cases to the advantage of the land-owner.

Could there be anything more infamous A Judge and his friends pleading forsupport, not because he gives his decisions with impartial justice, in favor of tho right, regardless of persons, but asking for the help of a large class of citizens, because he is in the habit of giving decisions in their favor! If this is not selling justice for political support, what is it! earned tho Bupport of this very same reckless, dirt-eating Hiawatha Herald, by bo ruling that the publishers of the sheet were enabled to steal a printing office, by law, from a citizen of Doniphan County 1 Another infamous trick of Hubbard's hummers, has been the circulation of slanderous reports against Mr. Perry, In a recent trip through the sonthern part of Nemaha County, Hnbbard was accompanied by a drunken gambler, (and a Democrat in politics, at that,) who has since been peddling his dirt for him. This individual made his appearance at Hiawatha, last Saturday, when the primary elections were held, and reported that Mr. Perry was drunk at the time of his recent visit to Wetmore. But it is impossible to enumerate the falsehoods and tricks of this character that have been instigated by Hubbard himself.

They have been used in every nook and corner of the District, and will continue to be used until the nomination is decided. Those of bis friends who have been too honorable to circulate these stories, have not had the magnanim-ty to refute them, knowing them to bo false. We think that every sensible man has been utterly disgusted with Hubbard and his crew, and many who started out his snpportcrs are now hie opponents. Of course, those who feci that they command his official services, and get decisions for the asking, will not listen to reason, but will do nil in their power to "elect him, all the same." But those whodesire the rule of law and justice, with a Judge who understands law, and has the firmness to deal out impartial justice, will contribute their influence to emancipate the bench of this District from the iucnbns now occupying it, who is weak in everything but in the deathly grip with which he nows on to office. State Coxvextiox.

The Greenback State Convention at Topeka, last week, Was attended by about one hundred delegates, representing tweuty Counties. After a long wrangle as to whether the Convention should endorse Peter Cooper, and whether it was a Peter Cooper Convention or not, tho rosolntion was adopted as a matter of courtesy. The following ticket was nominated: Governor M. E. Hudsou, of Bourbon County.

Lieutenant-Governor J. A. Beale, or Pottawatomie. Secretary of State W. Allison.

State Treasurer Amos McLonth. State Auditor H. F. Sheldon, of Ottawa. Attorney-General.

J. D. Brumbaugh, of Mar shall. Superintendent of Public Instruction Thomas Bartlett, Associate Justice of the Supreme Court Wilson Shannon. Presidential Electors J.

Hudson in nomination. Mr. Bippey's name was also presented, but be declined. He read from the St. Joseph Gazelle an account of the great Democratic ratification meeting at Severance, and pronounced it false, sayiug that all the names mentioned were Republicaus.

J. D. Brumbaugh has peremptorily decliued the nomination for Attorney-General. Perhaps the publio will now begin to think there was something in the charge we made, that M. E.

Hudson's recent rounds among the Granges were for political objects. Reform." The combined Democracy of Oregon and Forest City, enthused at the latter place, last Satunlay evening. There were, we learn, just forty-one Democrats present at the meeting. One of the principal speakers in favor of "Tildeu and Reform," was Clarke Irvine, claim agent, spiritualist, aud opium-eater. We can conceive Irvine's intense longing fur Reform.

Republican corruption is appalling; and when Irvine calmly sits dowu in the quiet of his (water) closet, aud thinks over the widows, orphans, and maimed soldiers who have been plundered by rascally Republicans, he doubtless feels a sense of goneness that surpasses anythiug he has experienced since the "wind" of Bing. Trigg's pistol-ball made him bellow like a bull-calf. By the way, if Bing. didn't get killed in the Rebolion, but is still living, he is, beyond doubt, a champion of Tildeu aud Reform. It would be au affecting sight to witness a meeting between him and his fellow-worker, Clark Irvine, aud see them weep on each other's shoulder, chaw each other's neck, and blow their noses on each other's coat-tail.

An Able Jurist. It is well known in Atchison as a fact, that Judge Hubbard does not own a law library, and has been known only once since his election to the bench to look into a law book, and that was to hunt up some authority in a case in which he was interested, which was beiug tried by a pro tern. Judge. He has to borrow every law book that he wishes to see, and be has never borrowed from any lawyer in Atchison. The only wonder is, that be did not try the case himself, iusistiug, upon his own con sciousness, that be was not prejudiced.

But Hubbard is so perfect in the law, that he does not need to read up. Since the Supremo Courts are composed of fools, why should Hubbard study their decisions? tJT Some of the Cooperatvies in the East claim Kansas as suro to vote for the ticket headed by tho venerable Peter the Hermit. Why, that ticket cooldn't carry the State, if both the other parties refrained from voting. The Greenback Convention of the 3d Congressional District repudiated Cooper. The Junction City Tribune, the ablest Greenback paper in the State, and the only ono that is so from genuine principle, refuses to support Cooper.

The delegates to the Grenback State Convention from Doniphan Connty were appointed by two or three men, and not more than two attended the Convention perhaps not more than one. Set down Kansas at not less than 30,000 majority for Alexander H. Hayes and George W. Wheeler. GTIf our Supreme Court is composed or fools, compared with the learning and wisdom or Hubbard, why doesn't he run for the Supreme Bench, instead of the one-hnied bench or the Second District A Justice of the Supreme Court is to be elected, this fall.

Hnbbard aspired to the United States District Judgeship, and wonld doubtless accept the office of Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States. How does it sound in the ears of Judge Kingman's old Brown County friends, to be told by the Hiawatha Retold that it is no discredit to Hubbard to be reveresd by such old galoots as Kingman and his associates (Written or the CUtf.)

During the month of August the first page of the Chief will be occupied with interesting financial essay that appears this week. The delight of oar readers at this cannot be excelled by onr delight.

While everybody elese is taking a breathing-spell, they will not begrudge the same favor to the printers, even at the expense or a few columns of reading matter.

X3T The Greenbackers of tho Second Congressional District met at Lawrence, last week, for the purpose, as some of them expressed it, of nominating Goodin for Congress. They refused to endorse Peter Cooper, bnt did nominate Goodin, after about one-half the delegate had bolted the Convention, leaving it in the hands or Tilden men. The affair was too transparent to fool even the most zealous Greenback-era. Haskell will be elected in that District, in spite of all such dodges as this. Gr It sounds well, coming from the Hiawatha Ceroid, to call Mr.

Perry the Democratic candidate, or Troy, when everybody in Brown County knows that tho Retold, last Fall, tried to elect a aet or the wosrt kind or Democrats to the County offices, and abused the Republican ticket just as it Is now abusing the Chief and "Gonsing," hut wheeled around the moment its ticket was scooped, announced that it was a Republican paper, and commenced fawning upon the Connty officers for patronage. Of The struggles of the Hnbbard forces are terrific, and their weapons are offal. Ct?" Kansas la complaining that her crop of cereals this year is too enormously heavy for utilization. Millions of bushels of wheat will have to be lost, the farmers say, because it ripens too fast, and cannot be got to market and as to corn, the yield is so great that vast quantities will hare to be used as fuel during the winter. 12.

Althongh Kansas is still suffering from the combined consequences or grasshoppers, drought and shiftlessness, and the mementoes are all around us, yet we have no doubt that there are thousands or improvident fools who are already forgetting the lesson, aud next Winter, if they cannot find ready sale for their corn at high prices, will go to burning it for fuel. Any man who does so, ill deserve to be eternally grasshoper-ed. The favorite Hnbbard tactics, just now, are telegraphing Hnbbard victories in the delegate elections, whether he has won them or not. In Atchison, they are trying to retrieve his defeat by briugiug the nsnal local pressure to bear to force the delegates to vote for au Atchison man. This ineaus, that if Martin cannot be nominated, his delegates shall be instructed to vote for Hubbard.

Let them not worry their souls. If a majority of the delegates are elected in opposition to Hubbard, be will not be nominated and that's the way the thing looks now.

To Us Editor of tit Cliff, The article in the Kamtat nenld, on the Judgeship, published In the issue of Joly 2Hh, exceeds in reckless mendacity anything I hare ever seen. A portion of that article waa written in acouple of gentlemen of the "royal line," whose heads run up to a peak, and whose little top-shaped skulls are as destitute of brains aa th editors of the Kaniat Umld are of a decent regard for truth and honor.

The opening paragraph Is manifestly from the pen of Judge Hubbard; be Is the only person in the District who could express the frustum of an Idea in snch miserable English, If we except the late "editor" of the Sabetha A dranee. I bave known, personally, fur some time, that the edit-or of the Eamat Herald waa a liar of a high order of talent. Lot I could hardly have dreamed that it lay within his power to put together aa many willfol and premeditated falsehoods aa be packs In this article. Be la a liar, when he puts tbo language of Insult that he does Into the mouth of Judge Basaett, speaking of our Supreme Court. Tleisaliar, when be reiterates the original falsehood of Jndge Hubbard, that all the eases of the 3d Ohio SUte are reversed but three, as any person msy prove by reference to the book.

Be la a liar, when he states thst eleven out of fifteen cases are reversed in the tth Iowa, there being a manifest intention to cause it to be believed that there are but fifteen cases In that report, when. In fact, there are one hundred and fifty-nine, and a majority of the case are affirmed, as, I will prove with the book, before the Contention at Biawatha, under pen. ally of supporting Hubbard, if my statement ia not true. Bo la a liar and a shyster and should be horse-whipped by every lawyer who baa any self respect left, when he statss that "We may rest assured that the Bar wish for nothing that will stop litigation or the accumulation of costs. Be Is a liar and demagogue, when be tries to ar ray in hostility, the people and the attorneys through whom their business in Coart must be transacted.

Be la a liar, when be states tliat the County Attorney stated to the Court "Your Booor cannot send this man to the penitentiary, neither can yo Jiang him. There baa been no testimony adduced against btoi to convict him of man. alaughter. Mr. Glenn's card ought to be enough to prore this but I will further prove It, by the testimony of a half-dozen men who saw and beard that case.

Be Is a liar, when he saja that Judge Glenn asked leave to file a nolle, or that on was filed. This I will proto In Con-ventiun by a certified otpy of the record. He ia a fool, when he talks about fining a man In a case that has been notUd. This I will prove by any standard work on criminal law. Be is a liar, when he aaya thst the Palermo-Miller case referred to In the Chief went to the Supreme Court.

(Proof by certified copy of the record of both Courts.) Be is a liar, when he makes the statement he makes of the complaint in the rape case, in Brown County. (Proof by inspecting the record and the information also statement of Keith, Lacock, Msy, and others, who beard hi Bonor's opinion.) Be is a liar, when he insinuate that Judge Bubbard has not a fixed habit ot tearing up, chewing up and destroying doubtful Instructions which he fails to give. Be is a liar, when he insinuate that he has not a fixed habit of charging orally the Jury, when counsel demand, in accordance with the statute, that he charge only In writing. (Proof by any attorney who has ever bad a case in his Court) Be Is a liar, when he charge or insinuates that I cither wrote or was privy to the writing of tho articles signed "Mack" and "Mania." Proof by SoL Miller, and the gentlemen ho did write them. Be is a liar, when be says that I have ever made any statement, guess, or expressed a hope or wish, as to the number of case uow In the Supreme Court, upon which his Bonor might be affirmed.

Numerically speaking, my Interest Is to have him affirmed; pecuniarily, lam most In al professionally, my interest would be a stand-off. Be is a liar, when he states that P. L. Bubbard had no connection with the Kansas Land and Immigrant Associ ation, when it was known that the real estate put Into the capital stock waa to be distributed by lot or chance. (Proof by gentlemen who heard Mr.

Bubbard make atatementa of the plan of operations.) Be 1 a liar, when he states that six days after the charter was acknowl edged, the plan waa changed without the knowledge of Jndge Bubbard. Be is a liar, when he aaya that the head men promised him bia name should be erased (Proof by certificate of bead men.) Be ia a most Infamous liar and fool, when he states that Judge Bubbard ever applied to Mr. John C. Tomllnson to have his name erased from the charter, alter its acknowledgment. It was acknowledged on Saturday October 30th.

It was received In Topeka and placed on file November 1st. There was no Sundsy msiL ItlvftAtch. Ison Satunlay, before 3 P.M. If the weak, TaciUathig Miss Xancy changed her mind, it must have been instantaneously, for Mr. John C.

Tomllnson did not bave the paper twenty minutes, all told. (Proof by John M. Price.) Be ia a liar, when he state last P. L. Bubbard' name was ever erased.

(Proof by Innpecting the original, at Topeka, on file in Secretary a efface.) Be is a liar, when he states that Mr. Bubbard sver asked Mr. Tomlinson to erase his name. Mr. Tomllnson Is now East, but will be at the Convention, and will demand that the truth of this charge be inquired Into, if Mr.

Bubbard is responsible for it. The author of the article i a liar, when he state that I have ever said to him or any one else, that "Bubbard withdrew just in time to save I did, how-ever, say, not then knowing that Bubbard was a direc tor, that on the return of Mr. that gentleman caught Bubbard by the nape of the neck and the seat of the breeche, and jerked him out of it. The author of that article is a liar, when he says that Bubbard Is not a director in that Institution. Be is a liar, when he ssys thst David Martin and John J.

Jugall have ever had any conversation on the Judgeship question, much less the ridiculous nonsense put up, aa to Martin's rnnning In to Ingalls' office In Atchison, (where be baa no office, and baa not been seen since Congress convened.) Be Is a liar, when be says that I said Bubbard with drew from the lottery, bat that tbey refused to scratch his name off, or that I said they were all a set of scalawags. Be Is a liar, when he aajs that Bubbard is strictly temperate, as he baa been seen to guxxle beer with ne groes. In the city of Atchlsun, since this campaign commenced. But probably the meanest and most coutempti. ble lie, ia that which Is told or Price's leaving a foul docket for Bubbard to clear up.

"Old, kaotty cases." As this mauifestly came from Atchison, its author should be held responsible for the insulting lie. The records of this County will show that Bubbard, if be went off the bench now, would leave fonr times the number of continued cases that were left him by Price. Be baa got nearly fifty contested cases in the Supreme Court undecided now, while Price only bad about half that number in three and a half years. If Mr. Bubbard Is responsible for these reckless and Insulting statements, is It surprising that he la confronted by a hostile Bar, backed by a people who are not altogether friendly, though he threat ens to capture the Convention by political cunning.

Scxxca, Kaxsis, Jnly 31st, ISTS. ia a ON THE WING. Os Truce, Jnly 23. 187C Dub EbTTOa I am Just returning home from the East, where I have been doing the Centennial Exhibition, New Tork. the Lehigh Valley, which Is known aa'tho Switzerland of America, and other place of Interest, not only to the American traveler, but also to the foreigner from all parU of the globe, whom I found sprinkled copiously through every crowded building, car, or boat, wherever I happened to be.

Being a Western man. I took pains to interest, and aa faraa possible, to inform myself npon the present early political outlook In the Eastern SUte. Of the little heard of Tilden, that which waa the least flsttering was beard in hla own State. Is It trne that man mnst go from home to be appreciated I The Chenango Canal Extension, which. In lta Incompleted sUte, cost the Ui -payers over four millions of dollar under Mr.

administration. Ia still a standing monument of that gentleman's policy. The thousands of loads of stone, paid for at the rate of tl 50 to 12 00 per load, for canal purposes, are, at present, being hauled off by private parties, to whom they have been sold by ex-canal contractors, who have the earns right to sell and receive tho money that any other com. mon thief would have. A vote waa Uken on the train, fifty mile east of Cleveland, Ohio the male passenger only voting, they, of course, representing, a do alt train loads in this age of much travelling, nearly If not all the SUtrs In the Union.

The vote showed a total of 171, of which B. 4. W. received 9S, T. i B.

71, and Teter Cooper ithe balance, 5. This gives, aa yoa eee, 33 per cent, for B. W. over the Democratic vote. A noticeable feature in the voting was the blushing modesty displayed by the Tilden men, as they, almost without exception, whispered their favorite name In tbe ear of the Ullyiat, while their features wore the appearance of men who were "living by the hope which maketh the heart sick." On tbe other lisnd, the Hsyea men called out the namea of their chosen sUndard-bearers with pride and confidence, and with voice sufficient that all might hear.

When near South Bend, Indiana, I learned of the death, by snn stroke. In Philadelphia, of MissStudebaker, dangh. ter of Henry Studebaker, of that city. Mr. S.

Is one of the brothers of the firm of that name, wagon man nfactnrers, in South Bend. Miss S. not only highly educated, but she occupied an envlaple position in society, and was beloved by all who were so fortunate as to come within her circle of acquainUnce. B.Q. INDEPENDENCE COBUEHPONDENCE.

Eo. Ciukf: A line of remembrance to yourself and readers, may be refreshing on this sultry morning. Inde pendence is the County Seat of Montgomery County, and tbe present terminus of the L. L. and G.

Road; it haa a population of about baa three newspapers, one of which Is a daily. I have an idea that this Is a good country for farmers, yet the cropa, especially wheat, are not so good aa In other part of the SUte; yet the town baa a rattling trade, aud is as live ly aa any place I have seen In Kansas. Partners for forty or fifty mile wrat of here, come here to trade and, strange aa It may appear, I hare seen wsgon loads of corn which were hauled forty miles here, and sold at twenty-two cenU a bushel. Th herd law Is In force here, and the County well settled, having a population of nearly 15,000. The weather, fur the past two weska.

has been extreme ly hot, and very dry. Heavy rains all through the Spring, but If rains do not soon come again, the corn crop will bs short. As It now looks, fever and ague will be a com mon laxury here, before long many complaining now. and the heat to fat man from Doniphan County slin ply Intolerable. This County is said to be Republican by from 300 to 300 majority, yet I notlee about half the Connty officers are Democrats.

The present year will likely make a change, and the whole Republican ticket be elected. Cot. St. John is Interviewing his friends here to-day, and I think he will be the first choice of this locality for Governor, and it would not snrpriae me if the Conventioa should see it In the ssme light. Republicans feel confident they can carry thl County for Haskell, although It la near tbe home of Goodin Haskell will be elected, without a doubt.

Jndge Price haa frlenda here who would like to see him the next Attorney General, and If the matter pressed, I think the Judge will come oft victorious. I have observed that there are few Doniphan County men here. Will Cochran being the only one I have met, and as a matter of course, the Chief bss net been seen by me In this locality. It is tbe only place I hare been In the SUte where I have been unable to find a copy of your paper, snd I feel lonely without It. I shall remain here a few days longer, and then, perhaps, visit Parsons, Humboldt, and Chetopa, and return to the best Countr In the SUte about tbe first of September.

Aa occasion of. fers, you msy hear from me again but for the present, bid you adieu. OCCASIONAL. City Attorney concerned. But I most sUte that I thufk I have been very badly treated by somebody in this esse.

The defendant applied for a continuance in this case, and strongly urged it npon me, trader the section giving me discretionary power of continuance. I waa induced to giro this application a favorable consideration, because we had a jury this term which had, in the case of Peter Waggener vs. The Atchison and Nebraska Railroad Company, ghren a verdict for 411,500 against the defendant, and seemed tome to be a little prejudiced against corporations. But If I had known that the defendant waa going to try to settle the case with plaintiff without consulting the Court or plaintiff's attorneys, I certainly would never have consented to a eon. tinuanee.

I think Mr. Waggener and me have been badly treated In the case. So mnch preparation had been made In the case, that I wanted to try It, and see what waa in It. I shall not have tbe case dismissed at thla time, bnt shsll give Mr. Waggener time file a supplemental pe tition, setting np that the aettlement was fraudulent, if he wishes to do a.M At the March term, a motion to dismiss under the stipulation was again called up by tbe City Attorney, and then, per curiam: "As I have said before, I think I bave been badly treated in this case.

A no supplement petition haa been filed, showing tbe settlement to have been fraudulent, and no showing made, I shall dlsmisa the case but a the amount allowed the plaintiff in the settlement scarcely exceeds the coat. I stall require th defendant to pay all tbe coaU np to this time, a ad I thaU net ehaaat tajf fanner eruVr." Judgment was accordingly so entered, but not until the Msyor had been called, to the Intent that the Court might know by what authority he had settled the case without consulting the Court or Mr. Waggener. STLLABCSOF LAW. I.

IL Where the Court wanU to try a ease, to see what there is In It, It error fur the counsel of the parties to settle the case without consulting the Coart. IIL Especially ia thl so, where tbe counsel for plain-tiff haa a residuary interest ia the case to secure their fee, and Courts should always see to it that such cases are not dismissed fee are paid. IV. It Is treating a Court badly to settle a case of this kind, when the Court wants to so what there In It.

V. Parties ta lltiratioa under the peculiar elream. stances of this case, nave no right to settle tbelr litigation without consulting the Coart, and If they do so. It will be deemed contempt. Dozberrv delirerlng the optnisn.

Thus one of the brothers-in-law of the Court nude a ten strike, by aid from the bench. SYLLABUS. I. The rules of Court may be suspended at pleasure, to enable a brother-in-Uw of the Coart to hare execution In a case while a motion for new trial pending. II.

It not error for the Court to misread a rule uf Court to uphold a palpably erroneous intennedllng of th Judge after tbe adjourment of the Court, a being law, where a brother-in-law to the Court I benefitted thereby. AU the Justice concurring. Tbe Clevelaud Retold pronounces the stories about the German Republicans of tbatcity favoring Tilden false. The reported change of German sentiment is all bosh.

JACOB STALDER.J jomr e.tsmitb. SUlder sued Smith on an unsettled account. Plaintiff lived In Nebraska, defendant In Seneca. Suit brought before a Justice of the Peace. Smith appeared, and offered to confess a judgment for ten doUars.

Judgment was given against Smith for about 1100. He took an appeal to the District Court of Nemaha County, and at th March term, 1876, the cause came np for hearing, on a motion made by Smith to dismiss the case, because the plaintiff, a non resident, aa he alleged, had not given ae curity for cost. The able attorney who moved to dismiss, certainly knew that the question of suretyship did not touch the question of Jurisdiction. The able attorney, who kept the case from being dismissed, by resorting to a well-known legal crochet of the Court, that a party who appeals admlu the existence of a valid Judgment against him, would not feel flattered if we did not sUte that knew better. The reporter has never seen a case tried In Court, th at moreiully illustrates the point that, with a man on the bench ignorant of law, good Uwyers are compelled to play shysters to win case, than waa exhibited In thl case.

Three hours wen consumed In the argument. At tbe conclusion, the Court held, "that he had no doubt that tbe Court below never acqnlred Jurisdiction of the canse. If It proceeded without requiring a non-resident plaintiff to give security for costs." "The sUtute," said he, "is mandatory. It must be complied with, before the Court can render a valid Judgment for either party. Bat in this case, the defendant has Uken an appeal by so doing, be admlu theexistenceof avalid Judgment against him.

So that while, if It had been Insisted on in tbe Court below, that Court would have bad no jurisdiction, by the appeal the defendant 1 estopped to aay there la no judgment against hiiu, from which he appeals. Besides, we have the cas here, now before as, and it would pat the patties to considerable cosU to dismiss the case. I shall, therefore, retain the caae, and try it, and see If there is anything In it. Yon may call a Jury, Mr.Clerk." This by-pUy had all been had because defendant waa not ready for a trial. It bad the desired effect.

The cause wsa continued. J. P. Taylor for plaintiff; Nathan Price for defendant. SYLLABUS.

FHO.TI ATCIIISO.X. ATcni.sos, July 31, 1878. Editor Cmir The fight In this city was glorious, but peculiar. The Jndge had been bumming with negroes all the day before, trratlng nearly two doten at Brnee'a aa. loon at one time.

On the morning of the battle, be open-ed again, treating and entreating early and often. Bor. ton waa to have been on both tlckeU in the 3d Ward, but towards evening it leaked oot that he waa working for Bnbbard, and bad run with him at Pardee.

Tbey busted the what business In the 3d Ward Horton, CraU, and all. In the 2d Ward, John A. Martin (Hubbard) got away with E. K. Blair by two votes; but the 3d Ward vote more than the 2d Ward, thus giving Martin the 4th District.

In the Sth District, stltsrs, w. r. smith, f. h. barker, and the Invincible Seip family, got away with C.

Baker, and they think they are a fiill match for anything going. But the boys of the 4th Ward got away with the Ben gale tiger In a manner that astonished him snd hi followers. The O'Murphys were left at home, and for th first time In ten years, a delegation waa elected that did not contain a Borton, a Ben. Gale, or a Murphy. Ther was great rejoicing at the result.

As it took only three vote of this County to cook the Bnbbard squash, carrying tbe whole city first dish, set the boys a little wild. But they will presently settle down to boalneas. ATTORNEY. ioi FBOTI THE 2IMT JOB.ISO.t. FRANK SCOTT TBE CITY OF ATCBISON.

This was a suit brought by Borton Waggen er against the dty for damage in tbe exact turn of tlfsoo. Frank got drunk, on dark night, and In going home, off the 8th Street bridge. At tbe November term, 1973, the Mayor of the city made affidavit for a continuance. Daring the aame term, but after a general order of continuance, th plaintiff, la person, and the dty anthoritiea, compromised the case for 1100, cash money, paid to plaintiff, be ta pay hla own coots, and plaintiff receipting against the fiitT The ease being sattled, the City Attorney filed hla st ipu lation of settlement, and aaked that the caose be dismissed. One of tbe attorney for the defendant objected, on the ground that he had fee la the caae, and that his client had no right to aetu such a cae without coaaalUnx hi attorneys.

The Court thereupon called npon the City Attorney to explain, and threatened ta send aa attach ment for the Mayor, on being Informed that the Mayor had aettled tbe caae on his own notion. Tbe City Attar ney explained hla conduct, and assured the Coart that had done nothing In th matter of settlement, except to draw np the papers that he was not present when the caae waa settled. Th Court looked severely at the City Attorney for a few momenta, and then, per curiam i "1 hold that tbe explanation 1 satisfactory a far as tho BRIGGS, Assignee, va. i MCAFEE. McAfee borrowed on thoaaand dollar of th nighUnd University endowment fund.

He gave the University a mortgage. Be also became indebted to A.HBylea, and gave him a second mortgage, reciting th first mortgage. Baylesa was put Into bankruptcy, and Brlggs, aa hla assignee, brought suit to foreclose, making tho Uni versity a defend ant. The petition contained no averment that the Baylea mortgage waa senior, or that tbe other was discharged. The recital showed that the second mortgage took nothing except what waa left aster th first mortgage was paid, snd proof of IU paymsnt would.

In most Courts, be held requisite before the second mort-gagee could recorer on a petition which did not charge the satisfaction of the first mortgsge. But Judgment went against the University, barring It of all Interest In the premise by defanlt. On Thanksgiving Day. 1874. a motion to vacate thlsjudgment waa made.

At the September term following, after several trip to Troy, the case waa again called up. But the Court announced that he had no recollection of the case, and the motion waa again argued, and again resulted In a "curruf adrisare nstf." At the December term, 1873, the Court decided tha caae la these roemorabl words: "I hardly know what to do with thla ease," (pfofoandlv scratching tbe flap of bta right ear.)
