crat Of Jan. l2th says, the Pembina delegation
to the territorial legislature arrived at ST. Paul's
on tie 10Th. They left their homes on the Goth
of December, with four trains OF dogs, and were
twenty days performing the journey; which is
very good travelling, considering the depth Of

the journey to Crow " ing on Snow Shoes,
walking ahead Of the trains to harden the track
for the dogs. The snow in the Pemblna re-
gion is from three to five feet deep on level.

~ IMPORTANT DECISION. The Odd Fell
lows case, which has been some time pending
IN the Supreme Court, on demurrer, has been
decided in favor Of the plaintiffs, on all the
points involved in the case. The questions
at issue were various, yet we understand that
the prime pal one was whether the Courts will
recognize and enforce the trust created by the
Constitution Of the Order, or, III other words,
whether HE articles Of that Association are rec
oLn2 Ible and enforceable by the Judiciary -
We un.erstand that the decision OF the Court
sustained the poS!uon assumed by the Cayuga
Lodge, and oyerrules the demurrcrs inerpos~
ed in behalf Of the members Withholding the
funds contributed for The objects OF benevolenca
and charity. 1t is therefore, an important de-
cision, not only to the order OF Odd Fellows,
but to the Order of Sons of Temperance, Free
Masons, Martha Washington, and other chari;
table Societies which are not incorporated. 1t
recognized their Constitutions, and maintains
that the Courts will enforce the trusts which
they create. - .lublrn .Ru.
