1he Btsumpfon Disagreement bet,ceen the Jldg
@cf the General Sessions Reception of Boz.
DEAR Bennett
Still are we without any definite knowledge OF
the subject of the Bank Resumption Bill
Yesterday the majority of the Court of Genera
Sessions held Willis H. Blaney, late one of the of
heers Of that Court, to bail, in the sum of one
thousand dollars, as an accessory after the fact, in
sertain extensive burglaries committed by the no
torious Williamson, alias Webb. This judgment
was delivered by Judge Doran, having been con.
Cured in BY Judge Conrad. After its delivery the
President, Judge Barton, said he dissented, and
further stated that he had not been consulted bv
his colleagues. This is queer state of things,
and would seem to confirm the rumors in circula.
ton Of nveierate hostility said to exist between
the members ef the Coust. sort Of fatality has
aeemed to attend the personal harmony of the m.
bers of this Court from its creation.
For some time personal hostlities were kept up
BY Barton and Conrad against Doran, AID vice yer.
81. This belligerent relation of the parties was
maintained for some months, and frequently exhi-
the spectators. Since the death of Judge Hopkin-
son, Conrad has deserted Barton for the camp of
the common enemy, or else been surrounded and
captured.
Judge Doran is an Irishman, and capable of deipp
that same. However, voluntarily or otherwise,
J9dge Conrad is now doing service in the ranks Of
MS former opponent against his old associates.
There are many stories out in relation to this mat
ter OF difference. Among Others, that both Barton
and Conrad aspired to the post vacated by the
death OF Judge Hopknson, (amusiny idea) and
hence rivalry, thar has apparently disturbed
tneir personal relations. There acme very
funny anecdotes in circulation in reference to the
Court, some of which may communicate

the honor OF shaking hands with hin. The scene
came on At the United ates Hotel, Col. Florence
aoing the honors; and although not costly, can

OUT 81 the room without sayiag word, was rather
broad humor, and Boz must have so conside cred it.
