IMPORTANT DECIsIoN.-At the June
term of the Circuit Court, in Harrison
county, West Virginia, the grand jury
mder the instructions of Judge Thos,
w. Harrison, found presentments for lar
eeny against those of the citizens OF
that county who had been engaged Ill
the rebellion and had returned to their
homes. Twelve persons were 50 pre-
seuted, viz: Judge Camden, L. NJ Tnr-
ner. Hugh II Lee, VIM p: Cooper, X, Z.
Davis. VIM. l. Corley, 5. Nj. Sommers,
Albert Borgess., K E. Cowan, John L.
CoNap. James A. Hurner ui.d v. E.
smith. The Judge issued bench war
rants for their rest and on Tuesday OF
last week they were arrested and taken
before Justices Werninger, Wright aud
Ro.s, for examination upon the charge OF
larcency for the taking of horses by
Jones' men at the time OF the Jones
raid" The examination was concluded
last TIL ursday aud resulted ia thedisch rye
Of all the accused parties, the Justices be-
ing unanimous in opinion. The several
points of law. both common aud inter.
national involved in the cases were ar
gned at great length. and we are prom
s-d at an early day full history of the
proceedings. AS similar prosecutions
have been set on foot against other par
ties in various portions of this State,
these cases afford valuable precedent
and the arguments upon which the de
cison was based will prove matter of
much public intereat.

SAD ACCIDENT. An accident occurred
at the Taylorstown tunnel on the Hemp
field Railroad day before yesterday, by
which one man was killed and another
seriously injured. The laborers were en-
gagged in removing the earth which had
caved in upon the track in the tunnel
James Roman aud Phillip McCardle were
standing close together when a stone,
weighing perhaps fifty pounds, was de-
tached from the roof ,and fell between
Roman and McCardle, striking both upon
the shoulder. The force of the blow sew
cred several of Romans ribs from their
articulation with the backbo and in
ficted severe wonnd upon his side. He
died about three hours afterwards Nc.
Cardle's collar bone and shoulder blade
were broken, but it is not thought that
his injuries will prove fatal.

RUsrICATING.--Oar city Fathers must
he ont of town-certainly they would
not willingly absent themselves fr"m so
important meeting of councils as
should have been held last night Ii is
most charitable tn believe them spend
ING "the heated term" somewhere i'll the
Cnnntry and we can imagine them Sc
renely bobbing for whales in some of the
mountain streams or slipping mint jnleps
at some sea side bar. while we poor NOR
tails are left to sweter in the city. and,
by the insufficlency of the police force,
are even denied the luxury of moonlight
rambles
A number of bills for work done for
the city by various laborers should lave
been audited aud passed upon by tho
council last evening, but no quorum was
present and ii is 10y no mems improba-
BILE that some of those laborers have
been depending upon the money which
they hoped to obtain from the city treas
ury to pay for the marketing which their
families need this morning. 1t has been
suggested that some of the members
staid away from the council meeting
last night in order to avoid voting upon
the ordinance for the increase OF the pc
lice force, but we do not think that that
motive Influenced all who were absent.
Their failure to meet, causes much incon-
venience tn great many persons.
THE BRIDGEPORT CASE-It appears
from the following note that our inform
ant was somewhat mistaken concerning
the arrest and firing of 4 discharged sol
dcr in Bridgeport, an account of which
we published YESTERDAY morning. We
very cheerfully make the correction con-
tanned in tue subioined communication
and would be much obliged to our friend
in Bridgeport if he, or some other COIL
petent person there, would furnish us
with reliable statements OF whatever To-
cal news NAV occur from time to time
In this way mistakes like the present one
may be prevented in future.
BRIDGEPoRT, Aug :, 1865.
RATHER RotGu.--Mr Editor, in your
naper of this mornings Issue, see an ar
ticle with the above caption. which to
us. who saw the whole affair, sounds
somewhat apocryphal. Your informant
must surely have drawn on Ibis magma
ton for his facts" A story has two sides,
and here is the other side of this one A
person not in soldiers clothes, though
perhaps returned soldier, came down
Main street oil horseback at flying
pace" yelling and shouting 10 the fullest
extent of his lungs. The reins were
hanging loose on the ANIMALS meek and
the rider was making no effort to guide
it, appearing too drunk to care for him
self OF the safety of the citizens. When
the animal struck the wagon tongue ard
fell, the rider alighted on his feet, or If he
fell at ALL got up instantly. AS to his
splitting bloCd we conld not see it. H.
stead of being fined fifteen dollars and
costs, it was but five dollars and costs
The bargain with the owner of the wag-
on fer damages was private matter,
with which no one interfered but the
parties interested, and perhaps the, price
was not too much for repairs aud loss of
time would not wish to intrude on
your time, but in justice to our corporate
authorities, snch glazing mistatements
should not pass without contradiction.

Died.-On the 10th day Of April,
1865. of Constipation of the bowels,
NANCY H. SLYE, daughter of VIM.
B. and Mary Slye. aged 35 years, 6
months and 10 days.
The deceased was we'll known through
out the community in which she resided,
and was beloved by all. She leaves a
large circle OF friends to mourn her loss.
Such has been the decree Of the AL
mighty Ruler of the universe, to remove
by the hand of death those whom we
fondly love and cherish, that we might
see the frailty Of life, and turn our
thoughts from the vanity of this world to
the bliss and glory Of that eternal
existence at Gods right hand in heaven.
The loved one has been taken from the
family circle--her happy smile will en-
iven Your hearts no more-her gentle
voice that thrilled your hearts with plea
snre is now slenced by the ruthless hand
Of death. Weep not for her, though the
Saviour has called her home, for soon
you all will meet in tha; mansion above
where no tears shall dim the eyes Of the
celestial Inhabitants, and where no part
ing words are spoken. May she rest in
peace, and when the trump of God shall
awake the dead to judgment, soar on an
gels wings to that paradise above.
Weep not dear friends, her tolls are DER,
Her spirit is at rest
Where tears Of sorrow dim no moro
The bright eyes of the blest.
Lies feetiug days were as dream
A vision bright and fair,
Touched by glorious heavenly beam,
Her Saviours love to share.
She dwells with angle spirits now,
From death and sin is free;
And at the Saviour's feet will bow,
Though an eternity.
Then rest dear one in Gods embrace,
Far from this world of strife,
In that celestial, happy place
Ofeverlasting life.
Her loss is felt, but you must bow
To Gods divine command,
And seek His love to cheer you nowj
While gracious is His hand.
Then when death chills your throbbing heart,
And your last hour has come.
Like her you're ready to depart
To that eternal home.
