Curious Lawsuit.

Curious Lawsuit.
A lawsuit involving a large amount,
and presenting a curious question, is
pending in the Casey county (Kentucky)
Circuit Court. It seems that Owen
Sutherland, living on Green Run, in Ca
sey county, some four or five miles above
Liberty, who is a man now about eighty
years old-by his own energy, industry
aud economy, assisted by his industrious
and frugal housewife, acquired very
large estate, part of which is some if-
/ ty-fve or fifty seven slaves. A month or
two agoit became noised about the county
that he was about to set his slaves free
by deed of manumission His grandchil-
dren, some of them, and his son-in- law,
McWhorter, becoming satisfied that
such was his purpose. and that he would
soon execute it, instituted legal proceed
ings, charging that he was in his dotage
and rather imbecile, and especially, that
his negroes had an undue influence orer
him; and that on this account, he was in
competent to control his property, and
prayed an inquiry into the matter, with
view of having a committee appointed
for him, to take care of his property
He executed deed freeing all his slaves,
and was preparing to remove them from
the State, when the plaintiffs had an at
tachment issued against them, and they
were detained. The cause came up for
trial week before last, at the Casey Cir
cult Court, but was continued until next
November term.

three or four Hartford gentlemen, who
are building dam at Hilltown, Glasten-

encouraging the growth of this shy and
beautiful fish. The dam is to be nine
feet high, two hundred feet long, and
will cover four acres of land. A house
with accommodations for man, and a
barn, with accommodations for beast, are
to be built near at hand, and some tall
sport is expected by the projectors of the
affair. The expense will be about
$4,000.

Dg Rulph Wilkins killed his father
in Prussia, because of his cruelty to his
mother, and then fed to this country to
avoid pursuit. He sought in the wild
excitement of the chase forgetfulness of
his crime. One day hunting the elk and
buffalo, he was made prisoner by tribe
of indians who kept him about three
years. While living with them, the
grace of his person attracted the atten-
tion of the young daughter of the In
dian Chief, and he married her, and in
this wediock they had son and daugh-
ter. Soon tired, however, of this un-
civilized life, he ran away to New Mex
leo, and then went to St. Louis. He there
met the brother of his step father, and
fearing vengeance, few days ago, he
shot himself through the heart.
