IMPORTANT LEGAL DECISION.


Judge MACARTHUR of Milwaukee, the
wbiome victim of Constructive force, =
has recently delivered two very important
legal opinions, one in regard to the new
Mortgage law, and the other respecting
Double Entry Book keeping.
He pronounces the former unconstitu
tionaI, and the latter incomrehensipble.-
We have not had the pie sure Of reading
Ills opinion on the mortgage law, but have
been greatly edited by his dissertation on
double-entfy book keeping. He declares
that no finite; human intellect can fathom
the mysteries of account books kept by
double entry, and characterizes it as sys-
TEN devised by clerks to defraud their en-
ployers. We doubt not that his views up.
on the new mortgage law are equally
learned, comprehensive original and val
liable. Madison Journal.
A great, original and bright witted ge-
Mus. is this judge Arthur Macarthur, of
Milwaukee 1t is feared he will also de-
eide against the catechism and school prim-
er as either unconstitutional or unfathom-
able.

WHERE IS TRAzEa,s RIVER 2

The recent discoveries of gold on Fra
,.,'s River will lead many to examine
,bor mans in vain for the purpose of lind
mo the precise locality of this now inpor-
tant stream.
Frazer's river empties into the Gulf of
csoroia a branch Of Puget sound, few
m;los norlh of the 49th parallel which is
The boundary between our territory and
,be British possessions. It's head waters
;nterloek with those of the Columbia and
,ba Atbabasca. For the first half of its
coorse it runs in southernly direction,
chen it turns westward. At the distance
f160 miles from It's mouth, it is joined
Lr the Thompson's River, considerable
stream flowing from the eastward. The
Cascade range of mountains, which may
h regarded as continuation of the Sierra
Nevada. ceases here. At the junction of
the two rivers, and in the immediate viciI-
iy. lie the diggings which are causing SO
mnch excitement on the Pacific coast
They have been worked more or less since
h,t summer, but their real importance
WAS not ascertained until lately.
Fort Langley, The lowest post Of the
Huison's Bay Company on Frazer's River,
/. situated on the left bank, about 25
miles from its mouth. Thus far the
stream is nayisabIe for ye; sells of consider

At the mouth Of Que-que ALA River, SO
miles above Fort Langley, To the "Falls"
i 70 miles further, and thence to 'ihomp-
sous River Forks is 55 miles. Thus the
whole distance from the month Of frazer's
River to the gold diggings at Thompson
River is 100 miles, OF Whereabouts.

on foot from the Falls, and is exceeding
" laborious and rugged. There are no
horses or mules to be procured in all that
region.
Its by the route above indicated that
host of the gol,l-seeGers will find their
way to the new placerS. There is, howev

and the DYlles but the distance is four or

The latitude of the Thompson's River

PUNISHMENT OF WooD THIEF.-In
the depths Of hard winters night, in
northern New York, gentleman heard a
noise at a big wood pile, and salying forth
found a man just leaving dragging a sled
on which were few sticks purloined from
the pile. The sled was overtaken, and he
begged for mercy, ayerring that his fam
lily were freezing, "Come back you ras-
cal with that sled,' said the owner of the
wood; and the culprit dragged it back to
the pile, and began to unload. "Stop
that, you rascal, and put on sled full y
said the owner: and after piling the sled
to its full capacity, added: "Now pull, pull,
you scampr' The culprit coald barely start
the load, but by application of a switch
and an oath or two from the rough but
good natured owner Of the pile, the load
was got under weigh, and for half a mile,
with snow kuee deep, was the Gu prit forced
to a dog trot, until he reached the door OF
his fireIess cabin, ready to fall down from
the labor of hauling the load. There, said
the owner, "you scoundrel, III teach you
to steal my wood next time ask for wood y
That was justice tempered with mercy.
