BUFFALO, Nov. 15.-A Toronto
special to the EIrpress gives the par
ticulars of Ryan's, the Fenian prison

er freedom and permitted to sleep in
the Chapel with the turnkey. Last

IL o'clock this morning he was seen
lying in bed as usual with his clothes
on. A. 3:20 o'clock one of the turn
keys had occasion to go up stairs
where he found Ryan non est. The
other turkeys were Immediately
aroused and the police and the three
divisions of the city were notified. The
escape was effected in so
daring manner that he
must have had anS accomplice to
assist him. From an examination of
the surroundings it appears that Ryan

stairs to the next fat and entered

Decision OF Supreme Court or MIS-
slSsippi.-State did not Lose its
Organization by Secession.

New ORLEANS, Nov, 15.-The Su-
preme Court of Miss ssippi decided
that the State had never lost it's or
ganization as government by reason
of secession or war, but that it was in
all respects not only dc fdcto but de
jure State, aud that the functions
of the government were rightly and
constitutionally exercised by those
who exercised executive legislative
and judicial functions during that
time within the State. The opinion
of the Court delivered by Judge Har-
ris and Judge J. Shal berger of Mis-
sissippi, also decided that sales and
executorial contracts made before the
surrender, founded upon Confederate
Treasury notes as a consideration
we're valid, and can be enforced now.
Judge Clayton some time since de-
cided contrary. These cases 20 to

HORSE AND THREE SADDLES STOLEN
A horse and saddle belonging to young
man from Smith county, who was stopping
at the house of Mr.. HARRIS, some eight
miles ont on the Murfreesboro pike, was
stolen on Friday night last. The thief was
not satisfied with one saddle, but carried of
two belongingto Mr.. HARRIS. Fortunately,
the horses of Mr.. H. were in the woods, and
the thief, or thieves. failed to get them.
Three men were seen walking in the d.
rection of Mr.. HARRIS house late Friday
night, and they were likely the sco1ndrels
that committed the theft. They are very
probably part of the gang JACK GREEN
belonged to. and were frightened outof the
city by the arrest of their companion in
crime.
