Sunrene Court.

Friday, Oct. %. 1859.
lillian L. p. Lite a al, u.s. John
Derby. Case reserved from Saginaw
Circuit.
Opinion by Campell, J. One Monroe
deposited with plaintiffs an altered draft
for $500, upon which they advanced him
800, and forwarded il TO New York for
collection, at the same time giving Mon
roa certificate stating that he had de-
!. cred said draft to them. This certi-
fica;e Monre sold to- the defendant
Before purchasing, defendant called on
p antiifs and asked if they would pay on
the certificate the $500 unpaid on the
draft, and was informed that they had
sent draft to New York for collection;
that if it was paid, as it probably would
be, they would pay him the $500 il he
bought the certificate; that they would not
have advanced the $500 to Monroe il
they did not believe it all right, and that
they had no doubt it was all right. The
draft was paid at maturity, and plaintiffs
paid defendant the 500. The forgery
being discovered, the various parties
were called upon to refund, and tn,
| plaintiffs having refunded the amount
collected by them, call upon defendat &c
return the amount paid to him.
No question can arise as to the gen.
eral liability Of party to refund money
received upon forged paper.
The few exceptions which exist do
not apply in this case. The Plaintiffs
having dealt with the New York Bank
without disclosing their agency, were
liable 10 refund the amount collected
Any passing Of the draft for value,
whether endorsed by them or not, made
them liable 10 refund, because of fail
ure Of consideration. (2S X Z. and T.

Z. L. and E., ca; Gray, 5ls.)
The Plaintiffs had not purchased the
draft. They received il for collection
aud made an advance upon II. Their
certificate was not an independent en-
ga cement or liability to pay money, but
merely evidence of an undertaking to ac-
count for what should be collected upon
draft supposed to be genuine. They
entered into no bargain with Derby, aud
were guiltyof no fraud upon him. He
did not purchase any debt against them.
All that occurred operated merely as a
transfer to hir Of a particular fund or
security which plaintiffs were employed
to collect. They paid him the supposed
proceeds Of his own funds-not any debt
due from themselves. That fund having
failed, and they having been Obliged to
reimburse those who purchased it, defend
ant was, upon the principles referred to,
bound to repay them. 1t is oil one as
if the draft had not been paid at maturi-
ty, and they had paid Derby on mistaken
information Of its payment All he had
a right to receive was the proceeds OF his
SECURITY, and no proceeds resulting from
it.
There was, therefore, no consideration
for the money paid him, and plaintiffs
are entitled to recover it back. SO GER

Circuit.
Opinion by CHRIsrIANCY j. Where
two persons sue for joint claim FOL
work and labor, it is not error to allow
proof of letter to one Of them for the
purpose of showing the employment, al
it is competent to show its references
to Joint business by further evidence
and when this is done, as in the cas-
here, the letter forms legal evidence o
the joint employment.
Where suit is brought on the com
mon counts for work and labor, and i
is set up in defence that there was

y the work sued for was part of tina
embraced by the special contract wa
in this case question of fact, an

ten of the trcnty-one Congressional Dis
tricts. Four Republican Congressman

whose districts have pronounced against
them at the late election. The Tenth
the Fifteenth, the Seventeenth and the
Ninth Districts have been redeemed
The Second and Fifth Congressional
Districts are almost equally divided-the
Republicans having but small majority
10 each. The Republican majority Of
10000 on the State ticket in 1858 has
been cut down to $4,000 in 1859. Yet
notwithstanding the Republicans have
loss four Congressional Districts and one
third of their majority on the popular
vote, they sbout over tho election as an
immense Republican victory. - Pam

Those "EAetrs."--Many Of our read
ers who travel by the overland route to
Detroit, have oouotl,e. rnticed ON the
cupola Of the Court House in Pontiac,
four burly, black looking images, which
we have always taken for vultures, signi'
flying that their prototypes Of the human
spec es, lawyers, were to be found in that
vicinity. 1t seems, however, that they
were intended to represent eagts, which
regal bird they resemble about as much
as a pressed brick resembles bird OF
paradise. The Oakland County Officials
don't like their cast iron poultry, and have
applied to the Board Of Supervisors foi
such relief as will save their answering
questions--was there ever county officer
who was not too lazy to answer ques
tions?--the Board, however, refu led tc
act, aud the eayss still stand, "cye, sore
aloft," for the good people of Pontiac.

THE LATE ELECTIONS

The opposition prints have had good
time Growing over the result, but they
we're as awkward and discordant about it
as the first effort made by Shanghai
rooster. Their crow over Ohio has fz-
zled down to less than cackle. Their
great victory there is a loss of over sea, n
thousand on the popular vote, their ma
jority now being some $4,000. In Penn
sylvania they do not pretend to CLAIM tic
result as republican "triunph;" for no
republican ticket was run, the republicans
having played second fiddle by voting
the ticket headed Opposition" There
is no more danger of Pennsylvania Civ
ing republican" majority than there
is Of old ''Sced Wheat" Bingham going
down to Virginia to fight for the fools
there he has urged into treason. The
crow over Iowa was also premature -
The "republicans," ifnot in the minority
have their majority reduced down to o.
and it is even doubtful whether they
have carried the State at all. Nebraska
elects democrat to Congress, and the
majority of the Legislature. So much
for republican victories. The result is
indicative of anything but republican
success. 1t is reduced to certainty
that, without the know-nothing vote, re-
Observation-Disclosures is nowhere, and
hence Greeleys anxiety to yield again tc

order to increase the prospect of success

The Portland Argus announces the de-
mise of Ex-Governor Robert L. Dunlap.
He died at his residence in Brunswick on
Thursday at half-past two o'clock in the
afternoon. Few men, observes the Ar
gus, have stood so high in public regard
as Governor Dunlap, and few if any in
Maine have been so frequently honorcd
by the Democracy with important public
trusts. In 1888 he was elected Cover.
nor Of the State, and by annual reelection
continued in the Office four years. In
1843 he was elected representivc in
Congress, in which capacity he served
four years. In 1859 he was appointed
collector Of Portland, and he held the Of
fee of Postmaster of Brunswick froml853
TO 1857 He has been for many years
President of the Board of Ovcrseers Of
Bowdoin College, and at the head of the
fraternity of Masons. Gov. Dunlap was
. man of singular honesty of purpose and
purity of character, and his death will be
mourned by wide circle Of friends lie
was nearly seventy years OF age.

the Opposition candidate for the Presi-

"The News wants to know if it is true

in any way the action of the Republican
National Convention. Presidential let
