Dealt, OF Capt. q. n. Traverse.

Capt. &. III. Traverse, who was wound
cd at the battle Of Fair Oaks, died in
Washington on Sunday morning lie
had partially recovered from his wounds,
and il was thought he would be able to
reach his home. But sickness Of seri.
GUS nature set in, which added danger
ous complications to his case, and on
Monday morning the telegraph brought
the mournful news of his death. He was
attended through his illness by his broth
err, DIR. j. Il. Travers, who went to Wash
inpton as soon as the news reached here
of his being wounded. Capt. Travers,
was one of the first to enlist in the de
fence of his country, after the breaking
out of the Southern rebellion. He sree1
lily raised company for the war, which
was accepted by the government, and
placed in the 9th regiment Of volunteers
from this State. Although he had been
unwell for quite time previous to the
last battle in which he participated, he
refused to 90 into hospital, and stood by
his men and his colors to the last. Port
Huron may be proud of him as their
representative or the field of battle, and
should do honor to his memory.
As citizen, he was full of generous
impulses, had many friends, and will be
truly mourned by all those who knew
him, and he was loved and respected
most by those who knew him best. AT
this writing, "Wednesday noon,) his re-
mains are looked for at the arrival OF
every train of cars. The Fire Depart
ment of Port Huron will turn out to es
cort his remains from the depot to the
residedce of DIR. Travers, on its arrival
at the station.-P Port Huron Cnmmerc'aL
a subsequent telegraphic despatch
brings the intelligence that Capt. Trav-
ers was buried at Port Huron on the
9th, by the Firemen, Masonic fraterni-
ty, AID Hibernians. The funeral pro-
cession was over a mile in length, and
was the largest gathering ever met in
st. Clair, county on such mournfnl
occasion.
An intimate acquaintance with Capt.
Travers for more than ten years enables us
to testify as we do with feelings OF heart
felt sorrow at his death, to his many
estimablc qualities. Kind.hearted ,chival.
rous, impusive and fearless, he was by
nature calculated to win friends in social
life and honors in the field.
Capt. Travers was by birth an Irish.
man; and in giving up his life in defense
Of his adopted country, has added anoth,
CIR Page to the record which that noble
people arc making Of their gratitude and
devotion to this nation.

THURLOW WEED.

The return of Mr.. Weed to the edit
orial chair of the Albany Eo,niig Journal
is signalized by the conservative tone of
its recent leading articles. Who were
one of the parties that brought about
the present state Of affairs, and who are
now rendering reunion diii;ult if not
impossible" is thus stated in that paper:
"The chief architects of rebellion, be-
fore it broke out, avowed that they were
aided in their Internal designs by the
ultra abolitionists of the North. This
was too true, for without snch aid the
South could never have been united
against the Union. But for the incen-
diary recommendations which rendered
the otherwise useful Helper Book fire.
brand, North Carolina could not have
been forced out of the Union. And even
now, the ultra abolition press aud speech
makers are aggravating the horrors they
helped to create, aud thus, by playing
into the hands of the leaders of rebel
lion, are kee ing down the Union men
of the South, and rendering reunion
difficult if not impossible"
This is pretty heavy battery brought
to bear upon the aboitionists. 1t comes
too, from one who has courted and pet
ted them for their votes. 1t tells unde-
niable truth, however, when it says the
oboliiionists ''are aggrating the horrors
they helped create, aud thus, by playing
into the hands of rebellion, are keeping
down the Union men of the South, and
rendering reunion difficult if not imposs-
ible."

In Matter Of Il. 8. wiiliams-Bank-
ruptcy Case.

We learn that Judge Swayne, of the
United States Court, few days since at
Detroit, summariIy disposed of the ques-
ton relating to the title of an interest
in the land at the lower part Of this city,
which certain parties had raised. The
facts briefly are that in 1910, G. d. &
E. s. Williams were the owners of 10
acres Of land on which the Rail Road
Depot and other buildings are erected
During that year they mortgaged this
and large quantity of other lands to
the Am. Fur Co., for something over
twenty thousand dollars. In 1913 E.
S. Williams, on his petition was declared
q bankrupt, and discharged as such In
is45, both G. d. g., +. S. Wilioms con
veyed tho mortgaged lands to the Fur
Co., in satisfaction Of the Mortgage, and
Mr.. Hoyt purchased this ITO acres from
the Fur Co. 1t is now claimed that by
the Act Of Bankruptcy, the estate of E.
s. Williams in the land passed to his
Assignee, and that his deed Of lS45 con-
yeyed no title, and in January, 1861 an
sr purts order was made in the Bank
ruptcy cause, re-instating the assignee
and authorizing him to proceed and sell.
The parties now in possession, thereupon
fled their petitions to have the first order
vacated, and the Attorneys for the AS
sipnec moved to strike these petitions
from the files. Hon. Ross wilkins, Dis
trict Judge, reserved the questions ars-
ing on the cause, for the opinion of Judge
Swaync.1 After, full argument, it was
decided, that the motion TO strike from
the files be denied; that the petitions were
properly fled and that tho court had
jurisdiction 10 pass on these questions
on petition; that no sale ought TO be
permitted until the controversy was set.
