Dennison House.

Our cotemporary Of the New Cas-
tie Courier was in Cincinnati a few
weeks ago and stopped at the Denni-
son house. Not being dsad-headed to
his liking. he devotes half column
to abusing the House. We are not
the defender OF the Dennison House.
but we think justice to one Of the old
est and one Of the best landlords in
the city, requires us to say that his
assault upon that house is wholly un-
justiGable. and any man Who makes
it. lays himself liable to being suspect
ed either Of having never travelled
from home enough TO know when he
Is we'll entertained, orof appearing so
uncivilized that first class hotel will
either not entertain him at oil. or en-
terrain him as he deserves. We have
eaten and slept at the Dennison
House for more than 90 years. and
either We are no judge of good en-
tertainment, or that house eats and
slssps its guests well-well enough for
W., at all events.
Every traveller has noticed on rail-
roads that few personsare always
grumbling. The cars never go fast
enough-stop too often or too long
seats too hard or too short--conduc-
tor too grua, &c. Enquire into their
history and they are always persons
who have hitherto travelled only on foot
or in mud wagons. Experienced trav-
slers never grumblo that way. just
so with man who lives hard at home.
He never gets anything good enough
away from home. The inference Is
ensy.

Court Matters.

Tyner d Roberts, VS. Roots d Co.
Suit by Tyner & Roberts. against
Roots &.Co. Of Cincinnati, for var.
ious Shipments of Flour to defendants.
amounting in all to 1873 Bbls. The
last Flour. 1t seems. was delivered to
defendants. a few days before Tyner's
failure. R. Tyner had been acting as
the financial agent Of the firm; togeth-
or with other firms, in witch he was
interested by general agreement, and
the proceeds Of the various shipments
Of the different firms was transferred
to r Tyners individual credit, on de.
PENDANTS books, with the knowledge
and consent Of Roberts, thus merging
all the accounts into one, for conven-
fence, Tyner having the control Of the
proceeds and sometimes obtaining ad-
vancements for the various firms.
AT the time ofthe last shipments by
Tyner and Roberts. Roberts gave de-
PENDANTS special instruction|to send him
the proceeds Of the sales after paying
off some firm debts in the city and it
appeared that at that time plaintiff did
not owe defendants any thing on their
own accounts. but r. Tyner did owe
defendants considerable amount. for
borrowed money. DC.
r. Tyner gave defendants direction
to apply proceeds of said shipments
to his own account and that he would
arrange the matter with Roberts. and
defendants did so. and the question
was between Roberts Il Roots d Co.
as to whether, under the circumstan-
ces. the defendants could apply the
proceeds in controversy TO the indebt.
edness Of R Tyncr. Ihaye given the
main points in the testimony. 1t SEEM
ed to me to be close shaving. and to
raise very nice question.
The jury brought in a..verdict for Ty-
ner d Roberts. for full amount Of flour.
The defendants moved for new trial
which was refused by the Court, and
an appeal taken to the Supreme
Court. @.

Ratification.

The Citizens Of Bloomingrovo met
at the NJ. E. Church on the evening Of
the LIST inst. and after several speech
es. unanimously voted to approve the
Prohibitory Liquor Law passed by the
last Legislature. and pledging them
selves to use untiIing excrtion to en-.
force II on and after the i2th Of June
next. This looks like the people put
ting their veto on our prohibitory law
becaus 1t is in violation Of our per-

ANOTHER vEro-The President has
vetoed the Ocean Mail Steamer Bill.
We are gladto record this fact. The
annual appropriations to this CON-
pany. in which most Of the members
Of Congress are stockholders, BY gift,
for the sake Of bride, Is one Of the
most corrupt acts Of that corrupt
body. Like the French Spoliation
Bill. it Is an appropriation to them
selves. Probably more than half Of
the members Of both houses have
bought stockin that French claim at
about FIVE cents on the dollar. We
are glad we have such President.
II is said. and xe believe truly. that
one Of the Senators from Indiana is a
large stakeholder in this Ocean Mail
Steam Company. The history Of his
stock is this, as we are informed. A
gentleman called upon him one day
and rendered him the deed To q house
and lot in Washington City, in view
Of his valuable services as Senator
He accepted. Of course. Not long
afterwards gentleman offered to buy
said house and lot with stock in this
company. He sold, Of course. All
honor to the president who resists up.
