ed upon them. And in conformity the Au-
ditor has appointed Mr.. LrScK as the Com
missioner on the part of the State, duly EN-.
powered to execute the law. The present
action Of the company by Mr. FooTE, one Of
the stockholders, claimed an injunction a.
gainst the Commissioner, on the ground that
the proceedings of the Legislature and the
Auditor were altogether illegal and void. The
Court having heard the motion, granted the
injunction with the understanding that it
would entertain a motion for dissolution, if
offered at its present term. The complain
ant was required to give bond in the sum of
100000, which having been executed with
improved security, the injunction was issued

goes on swimmingly. ID. p. THOMPSON

EDITOR ONO STATE JOURNAL: It is wei
known that Col. Medary was appointed Min
lister to Chill last spring, and it is understop
that he took the oath of office last June. TIL
outfit is nine thousand dollars, and the salar
is also nine thousand dollars per annum, be
ing $3.50 per month, and being nine IS
months since, would make Ss,75O salary
this, with the outfit, would be t,celue Mousan
seuen hundred and fifty dollars.
Now, the question is, has Medary receive
all this money from the peoples treasury, an
not yet done any service for the people il
the capacity of Minister! Rumor says h
has received his outfit and salary. Can yo
answer! O, w. p,
We have very frequently been asked tn
above questions, and have not answered, be
cause we knew nothing definite of the mat
ter. We should not refer to it now, excep
that the questions, as they appear above, com
to US from well known and rather promnen
Democrat, and he, at least, is entitled to al
answer. 1t is our judgment tha, this is
business which concerns the people, irrespec
tive of party. 1t is understood in this cit
that MEDARY does not intend to 20 to Chill
and that lie is driving a strong game to secure
his election to the United States Senate
His political friends have right to know
these things. The time has come ,ohen h,
must dns,oer, or suffer the damaging conse
quences of the general belief among his
political friends that he has already got the
pay Tor his partisan services In his pocket
