AN IMpoRrANT WILL DECISION.

The Lccsburg Democrat gives highly interesting
account of a late decision i'll Louioun county. by
the Circuit Court. in which estate of some eighty
thousand dollars was invoked. Tho facts of the
case are ae follows In 1875 Sanford Eamey made
his last vii. and testament by which his slaves were
to lie free at such times as his wife, Lydia Ramey,
should appoint.
In 1928 said Rancv, rcvokiug his former will, by
a deed executed Dulaucy, in trust Tor his wife,
conveyed the property 10 lie disposed Of by her NJ
her pleasure. In 1929 Mrs. Rance directed her
trustee Dulancv, TO convey said slaves and other
property to Sanford l Ramcy, which was done,
aud is of record in the Clerks Office Of Lou
dVun county. IN 1855, period Of l6 years having
elapsed, Mrs. Eamey made her last viii and tcsta-
meut in which siic c'nancipaled the slaves. aud dis
trihutci the rest of said property among her heirs
at large excepting Sanford l. Ramey, whom She cut
OF"
These circumstances gave rise to two suits. One
instituted 10y R!mey for the purpose Of breaking
Lydia Rameys will, ard the other Instituted b. the
slaves sucinG 10. their freedom.
Tie first Of these cases was the one under cOnsii-
Grafton by the Court; the jury set aside the will
which presume carries with it the entire abroLa-
ton Of the second suit that Sanford /. Raney
finds himself III possession of an estate valued at
$4,000.

THE PRESIDENTS VETO.

Hamilton, in the admirable seventy-third number
of the Fcderast written before the adoption of the
constitution defended the veto power on the ground
that it sanitary cheek the legislative body
calculated TO guard the community against the eff
fecs of faction, precipitancy, of any impulse un-
friendly to the public good = and Tucker Kent and
Story all profound iurists, writing after long trial
of THE veto, saw solid objection to this qualified
power" Indeed they eulogise it. The power is
iighly-vauable" are Storys words-and he charact-
erised it Z" appeal to the legislature ITSELF
and asks revision of its own judgment II is in
the nature of the rehearing, reconsideration and
involves nothing to provoke resentment or rouse
pride" Such the opinions of statesmen and
jursts Some of our contemporaries will do well to
examine this subject Perhaps they may come to
the conclusion that at present they misunderstood
it "The question is nOt7-Judge Story well re-
marks" how much virtue or wisdom or experi-
ence is possessed by either branch ofthe government"
but whether, in the present case the legislature has
not acted under persuasive influence of danger
Gus precedent After proper study of the matter
our contemporaries, instead of charactcrising the
most salutary act of President Pierce as evincing
1ittleness, arrogance or tyranny, may thank him
for it, and come to the conclusion tha5 Judge Story
did that the real danger IS that the e1ecut;rc ,riH
