The Circuit Court.

The Circuit Court for Saginaw coun-
ty closed its session last week, after
nearly three weeks session; Hon.
JABEz G. SUTHERLAND, presiding
This term was the first ever held by
Judge Sutherland, who has been
known as an able and successful prac-
titioner at the bar, and close student.
These acknowledged qualities led the
members of the bar and his friends
generally to form high anticipations of
his success as Judge. We can but
say that his debut as Judge fully
equalled the anticipations formed
The dignity and ability of the Court
will command the respect of the citi-
zens of this Circuit. The business of
the Court came up in its usual order;
first, the criminal causes second, the
issues of law and fact; third, the
chancery causes.
There were but few criminal cases
on the calendar, but one of which was
tried, the remainder being continued
or otherwise disposed of. The case
tried was that of the People Us. Henri
eta Brown, for the murder Of James
Hendricks, the particulars of which
are familiar to most of our citizens
This trial excited considerable interest,
and was witnessed by an unusually
large number of spectators, among
whom we noticed quite number of
ladies. The case was conducted upon
the part of the prosecution, by the
Prosecuting Attorney, Chauncy H.
Gage, Esq, assisted by Hon. John
Moore, of Saginaw City, and upon the
part of the defence, by VIM. H.
Sweet, John b. Dillingham; and Dan
two days and, the Jury returned after
a session of six hours, with verdict
of manslaughter. Mrs. Brown has
been sentenced to five years imprison-
ment in the State Prison at Jackson.
The following is a list of the civil and
chancefy causes tried and the decisions
as far as made:

SAGINAW SALT.-The following ex-
tract from recent letter written by a
dealer in salt at Polo, Ogle Co., ILL.,, to
a gentleman in Saginaw City, shows
how Saginaw salt is growing in favor
in the West, as its merits are being
proved by the test of experience
Il have been dealing in salt, with
other goods, for the last eleven years,
and have dealt almost exclusively in
the New York salt until within the
last two years, during which time 1
have sold pretty extensively of the Sag
NAV salt. When first introduced here
almost everybody was shy of it. but it
mas grown into favor very rapidly, and
this fall 1 find it difficult to sell the
New York salt at the same price,
Saginaw salt is certainly a superior
salt"

FIRE.-On Wednesday afternoon a
fire broke out in the dwelling house of
G. F. Lewis, editor of the Courier,
corner of Washington and Hoyt Sts.,
and had made so much Roadway be-
fore anything could be done to check
it, that the house was soon destroyed;
but the furniture was carried out and
saved. BY the efforts of the fremen
and citizens the dwelling house of Mr..
Lyon, on Washington street, and a
building occupied as a school house
were saved, and the further spread of
the flames prevented. We learn that
Mr.. Lewis had an insurance of 500,
which, at presentprices of lumber and
materials, is not sufficient to build a
similar house. The fire is supposed
to have caught from chimney or
stove pipe.--Enterprise, 1Sh
We refer to the above, not because
it gives us pleasure to recall the Incl
dents of the fire but to correct mis-
takes, not designedly made, we pre-
sumo, but unfortunately for us, mis-
takes. A portion of the furniture
was Carried OUT more than it was
''saved," but from the pantry, kitchen,
store room, kitchen bed room, cellar,
a~d s.~.n roorn. up stairs but q sn~n
proportion of the furniture or other
articles was removed; nothing at all
was taken from the cellar, and next
to nothing from the pantry. All was
done that possibly could have been
done, and the amount of labor per-
formed by some of the ladies present
was indeed marvellous; we might par
ticularize; but we are under so many
obligations to SO many friends that we
can only do justice to all by general
acknowledgment of favors.
The chimney near which the fire
took was new; built by B. T. Smith,
after the former fire, thoroughly plas-
tered inside, and from the fact that
there was no fire between the ceiling
and roof when first discovered, we
think it must have originated FROM
falling SCOT or cinders from the stack
above. 1t was early discovered by
some of the children of Miss Nc
Knights school, and but from the ter
rible gale blowing at the time would
have been subdued without difficulty.

The Pittsburgh Commercial of yesterday
has the following editorial paragraph:
The Needles Well, on Rausom's Run.
Peasants county, West Virginia, presents
several peculiar features. At the depth OF
3S4 feet a crevice was struck, aud the sand
pump descended $40 feet without striking
bottom. On striking the crevice, flow OF
gas ensued for abont a week. The well
was then tubed and seed bag placed Just
above the crevice, whereupon the we'll
commenced flowing oil and water in con-
siderable quantities, which continued four
days, when, the tubing proving defective.
it was withdrawn. A block of wood, near
ly the size of the well, was sent down, at
tached to the sucker rod. This block
struck the toels, where it rested-a cir
cumstance that was deemed to be proof
that the crevice was at an angle from that
point. On stripping the seed bag, the seed
descended on amass of parafine, which
had already nearly ohoked the well and
closed the gas vein. The weight of water
in the we'll has since retained the mass at
the bottom, and retarded the flow of gas
and oil. Steps have been taken to close
the we'll, and it is confidently expected
that it will prove to be a very ine ONE
These particulars we have obtained from
Mr.. Needles, who passed through the city
a few days since, on his way from West
Virginia to Philadelphia.
