LAW REPORT.
SUPERIOR COURT.

No STANDING ACCOUNT FOR SECEssIoNIsrs.
Davis Us. Debolt. In referring to this case
Judge Storer remarked that W. A. Jenkins
appeared in the case as cross petitioner,
and it being stated that this individual was
a brother of the Colonel Jenkins who had
made himself so conspicuous in the rebel
movement at Guyandotte, the Court desired
to know. how far the principles of W. A. J..
sympathzed with his brother. ftv
The attorney in the case said that what
ever his principles were, his wife was loyal
lady.
1t was stated by another lawyer that this
person was a Secessionist right up and down.
Judge StoTer said be would not entertain
jurisdiction in favor of men who were raising
The flag of rebellion in the country. Such
parties must wait until the war was over.
The case was then passed.
Hoe l. Co. Vs II. Reed Il Co. Judge
StoTer decided this questionable contro-
versy being between Hoe (who sold power
press to the defendant) and Ingham &
Swift, of Chillicothe, who held a mortgage
on the same press. 1t appeared that the
press was purchased at $5000-half cash
with an agreement that a mortgage should
be given to secure the balance. The mort.
gage of Hoe was not recorded, but it appear
ing that Inghsm & Swift were notified of the
existence of the contract with him, the
Court held that the equity of the case was
in favor Hoe & Co, and rendered judgment
in their favor.
Patrick Hughes Us. The Ohio and Missis-
sippi Railroad Company. An action, tried
before Judge Hoadly, to recover damages fol
personal injuries sustained by defendant
while brakeman on the road. Verdict no

COFFEE THAT is BEATEN IN MORTAR.-
II is not generally known, says the Buffalo
Ergress, that coffee which has been beaten,
is letter than that which has been ground;
such is the case, and in his brief article on
the subject, Savaria gives what he consid-
ers the reasons for the difference. As he re-
marks, mere decoction Of green coffee is
most insippid drink but carbonization
developes the aroma, and an oil, which is
the popularity Of the coffee we admire. He
agrees with other writers, that the Turks,
excel in this. They employ no mills, but
beat the berry with wooden pestels in NOR
tars. When long used, these pestels be-
come precious and bring great prices. He
determined by actual experiment which Of
the two methods was the best. He burned
carefully pound Of good Mocha and separ-
ated it into two equal portions. The one was
passed through the mill, the other beaten
after the Turkish fashion in q mortar. He
made coffee of each. Taking equal weights
Of each, and pouring on an equal quantity
Of water, he treated them both precisely
alike. lie tasted the coffee himself, and
caused other competent judges to do so.
The unanimous opinion was, that coffee
beaten in mortar was far better than that
ground in mill.

RELIEF FOR THE PooR.-The whole time of
the City Council was occupied last night in
discussing the Teportof the committee which
was appointed a few months ago to make
provisions for the relief of the poor of Gov
ingtop. The report, which is lengthy, was
made by President VIM. Ernst. 1t is the
opinion of the committee that the plan
suggested and referred to them, of sending
agents through the country to solicit con
tributions, is inexpedient. The reasons as
signed therefor are numerous and very
plausible. In reference to the plan of grant
ing relief, by orders on the City Treasury,
the committee state that in their opinion il
should be discontinued at once.
The committee recommend two methods
of providing for the poor. The first was by
placing a certain and reliable fund in the
hands of the Council for the purpose-said
fund to be raised by special property tax
1t was suggested by the committee that the
charter of the city be so altered as to author
ize this tax. The second method recon-
mended was that suitable building be
procured, in which TO place the destitute
poor, where they could be employed at such
labor as they were able to perform. The
whole report, with the exception of that por.
ton in reference to a special TAX, was
adopted, and steps will be Immediately
taken to carry the recommendations into
effect. Council meets again tonight for the
transaction Of regular business.

Addition, BY the stepmcr Cbnmp;o,.

Senators Gwin and Calhoun Benham, and
j. Brent, of California, were arrested as the
Uncle Sam was entering the Bay of Panama,
by order of General Sumner. Papers COM
promising them with Secessionists were
found aboard.
Some of Gwins friends at Panama applied
to the Governor to annul the arrests, on the
ground that they were made in New Grena-
dian waters, and that the Government has
no right to transport political prisoners over
their territory. General Herara, who was
an intimate friend of Gwin, also used his in
huence. The Governor issued orders pro-
hibitiDg the conveyance of the prisoners
across the Isthmus, and large forces of SOL
diers were sent to the station to release them
as soon as landed.
The United States Consul went aboard tho
Uncle Sam. 1t was finally decided that the
prisoners were to De allowed to cross the
lsthmus as such, and the question of further
arrests be referred to Washington,

LUMBER AND WooD AT WASHINGTON
vast amount of lumber is pouring in for
the use of the Government and many peo-
pie argue from this fact that General McClel-
Ian is putting the grand army of the Poto-
mac into winter quarters. This is not true.
Arrangements for the winter are making
for perhaps fifty Thousand troops-such an
army as in any contingency must remain to
guard the Capital. The Government has
made contract for eight thousand cords of
wood per month; and it is thought that only
very large army can consume 30 much
fuel, but the fact is, that the Government
provides against contingencies, and if more
wood is furnished than is wanted by the army
it will be turned over to the people Of Wash
ington.
