The CoMMrTTEE OF RAscALs.-Nash,

the Licking Herald, suit against Yontz,
late Engineer upon the National Road, for
5000 or 10000, which amount he charg-
ed Yontz to be a defaulter to the State
This suit was commenced last winter in
the Licking Court. The trial term came
of last June, says the Herald. Yontz was
ready for trial; but Nash was not to be
found. The Attorney General [$l2OO a

sence, and moved continuance, which
was granted. a ~ hs-"a IT T. .
The cause was again called up at ths
present September term. Mash did mol
make his appearance! and by legal quib-
bic the case was again continued.
This will probably be the last Of this
great case. Nash dare not appear and un-
dertake the prosecution. Itwas begun only
to make show of having done something
