Washington County Circuit Court,
Illsi rict nf Cnlnnhin

District OF Columbia,
Walter Smith and others U.s. Captain Dennis
Condry.-Mandate of the Supreme Court u. 5.
The above suit has occupied the attention OF
the Court nearly the whole Of the present week.
The following is a brief synopsis of the case:
The amount claimed by the plaintiffs was it-
teen thousand dollars. The action was brought
to recover damages sustained by the ship Fran
els DE Peau, whilst lying at anchor in the river
Mersy, port of Liverpool, in the year 1887. 1t
was proved that the barque Tasso was driven
against the Francis De Peau by the wind and
tide, with such force as to require her to be
taken into dock, discharge her cargo and incur
repairs amounting to CISCO sterling. Her car
90 was also damaged; the whole amounting to
SD 900, for which the suit was instituted. 1t
was also in proof, that the barque Tasso was in
charge of a Liverpool branch pilot and manned
with riggcrs, said to be the best of sailors i'll the
world 1t was likewise proved that the Tasso,
N leaving the dock, parted her hawser and ran
athwart the Francis De Pcau by the force of
the wndward current, and therefore became
unmqnareablc. No neglect could be proved,
or blame attached, by the evidence to the pilot
or crew of either vesscl-the collision seemed
10 be unavoidable. The case has been tried
before in tins Court, and a verdict rendered for
the defendant, from which an appeal was taken
to the u S Supreme Court. The Supreme
Court narrowed down the case to a single point,
namely: the sca-worthinoss of the Tasso. If
She Tasso be considered by the jury to be sea-
worthy, they will, doubtless, give a verdict for
The defendant The case was submitted to
them yesterday (Frday) morning, and they
have not returned verdict as yet, though past
four o'clock, having been out sc hours. 1t is
thought they will not be able to agree.
| send this brief outline, hoping that it may
be interesting to your mercantile readers, as it
las been argued by some of the abest counsel
n the District. Gen. Walter Jones and Gle
ment Cox, Esq. for the plaintiff; r. S. Coke,
Esq. for the defendant. ARGUS.

rascaI's mysterious disappearance
SwiNDIING EXTRAORDINARY AT IlAIIrAX-
On "Wednesday last, the clevcrest and most sue
ce'SiuI piece of swindlng that has lately been
tried, upon Gurhshircnen at least was carried
on and completed by IA man whose name, pro-.
iesslon, and place of residence are equally un.
known The fellow came into the town some
days before as the proposed manager for small
company OF American yocallsls and couleda ms,
and engaged the Odd Fellows Hail, directed
the erection OF a temporary stage in it, and cir
cnlatcd flaming bills announcing the perform
ancc, positively for night only" OF "Miss En-.
ma Grant, OF the Bowery Theatre; Miss Char.
lulte NilIlers, of the principal American con-
ccrts; Mr.. Il. ID. Rice, the celebrated Ameri-
can comedian, (his last appearance in Halifax ,
Mr. Henry Ford and Mr.. Chas Russell, the
great American mimic and caricuturist." The
charges were 2s., Is aud Cd, and the bill Ger.
tain!y was one of great promise, for it enumer-
aleI tirca'y,Hinc songs, besides three enter
tainments, number of niger dances, Virginia
pn!kas, and 4 niggcr lecture on phrenology |.
No wonder, when SO much was offered for So
little money, that there was no lack OF su1ience.
The "mHnagng' unknown showed himself
quite az fat at taking the siller; but eight o..
clock came, and then quarter past eight but
no american company" presented itself. The
audience began to grow impatient; and, finding
That there we're no more slXpenccs 10 be got,
the fellow set oil as lie sad to fetch the compa-
ny ; but we need hardly add that he went d..
rect to the railway station, performing in his
own person the only song sung that night, "Oh.
said the stranger, of, of, and away" The
feelings OF the audience, on finding that they
were cheated, may 10 use a common phrase
"be more easily imagined than described" The
fellow, it mus, be admitted, was a wag the
titles of his songs being such "The absent
man." "l calculate there'll be a row." "Dnah,
dear, him go away" "Risht slick, away
wcnt," &c. The first sony to be sung was 81
calculate there'il be a row. and we calculate
there was one, and no mistake.
