with stealing mail bags at Lyons, and which
has for some days past been before U. S.
Commissioner Brown, was closed on Wed.
nesday night The evidence throughout was
entirely circumsf fantial, but of a sufficient
ly strong character to determine the Com

of one thousand dollars to appear before the
United States District Court, at its next ses-
sion at Iowa City, which sets in the month
of May next. Mr.. Graham has recently ia
ken up his lodging at the county Jail, where

THIRTY FIR5f DAY.

THIRTY FIRST DAY.
The casa of Schneider and wife ~. Hep
ry Meyer occupied tho greater part OF the
day. The Transaction which formed the
subject of the suit has figured in various
shapes for the last two or three terms o.
Court Schneider claims one thousand dol
lar damages from Meyer for an aggravated
assault on the wife of the former. Meyer
set up AZ defence that Mrs. Schneider
first assaulted him, and that he used no
more violence than was necessary for his
own defence. To this Schneider replies that
though Mrs. Schneider may have been the
aggressor-Meyer used more force than the
circumstances warranted, and beat Mrs. 8,
numerically A large number of witnesses
were examined, and late in the afternoon
tie case as submitted to the jury.
For plaintiff, Hon. Judge Grant, for de-
fendant Leaks 4 Shorey.
The next case tried was that Of Schnare
vs. Gsyman. This was an action to recover
one half the value Of a division fence be-
tween the lands of plaintiff and defendant.
The parties are German living in Blue Grass,
and occupy adjoining farms; the plaintiff
built one half the partition fence and called
on defendant to build the other half which
defendant refused to do. though he was viii
ling to make the whole of the fence on his
own land; plaintiff thereupon built the
other half Of the fence and now sues to re-
cover it's value. Tha defence set up is that
the plaintiff never took the steps required
by the code to enti,le him Ia build the Sec
ond half The case was on when We left
the Court House.
For plaintiff Hon. James Grant, Gurley d
Rogers; for defendant, Geo. f. Hubbell,
Plumer d Van Hosen.

THE SEED SowER.-For two days
past we have observed man with q span
Of horses attached to a wagon containing q
machine which scatters grain all about,
much to the amusement of the boys, and

gentlemanly operator. He is, we presume,
intent upon raising crop of wheat from
the soil Of our most popular and crowded
thoroughfare to which we object. He
would find better opportunity in Keokuk.
