INTERESTING CONCERNING VOLUNTARY
BANKRUPTs.- important decision affect
ing the status of voluntary bankrupts was
rendered on Wednesday in the United States
District Court at New York, by Judge
Blatchford. 1t appears that one Charles
G. Patterson, after filing his petition in
bankruptcy, borrowed $4,000. When he
was examined before the registrar the cred
itors on his schedule questioned him about
the loan, and he declined to answer on the
ground that they had no right to inquire
about property acquired by him after the
commencement of the proceedings in the
matter of his bankruptcy. The registrar,
however. overruled the objection, and the
question was certified to Judge Blatchford.
In the course of a very elaborate opinion,
covering the whole ground. his Honor holds
that when an adjudication is made, the
following the filing OF IA petition, then it is
jjudiciously established that the proceedings
in the case commenced when the petition
was filed. The date of such salaries then
become the date from which the assignee
takes all the property of the bankrupt, which
was his property at that date. Such date
also becomes the date at which the debt
must be due or exist in order to be provabe.
Such date also becomes the date at which
provable debts must have existed in order
to be discharged. In other words, the filing
of "a petition, by or against debtor, is the
date at which, if an adjudication of bank
ruptcy follows, the old order of things passes
away, and new leaf is turned over"

SCATTERING BRANDs-We are sorry to
see that the Richmond journal called South
ern Opinion is publishing black. list"
which consists of those men who voted the
Republican ticket at the late election in Vir
ginia. There can be but little hope for the
era of good feeling or real peace, while
course so thoroughly mischievous and suici-
dial is followed by journals protesting to rep
resent public sentiment For, while neither
Congress nor the people of the North are by
any means lost to all sense of charity and
justice toward the South, they will not
withstanding, hardly sit complacentIy and
smilingly down and see their friends and adj
herents in that section ostracised and made
odious-if so foolish course can make
them so; and the sooner this fact is realized
the better for all concerned.
We know it may be truly said that these
incendiary sheets do not reflect the public
feeling but it may and will be as truly an
swered that they nevertheless have clrcu-
lation, and receive in some way or other
living support; and this fact is damaging
one. The better judgment of the Southern
people should promptly frown down the
criminal offenders-Ece. Post.

STILL DREAMING OF REBELLIoN.-Gen
Ord has about as frisky and irrepressible
set OF rebels to deal with in Mississippi as can
be found outside of Tennessee. The heated
action of the day, when over, is often con-
timed in the dreams of the sleeper The
rebels in his district are still fondly dream
ingn of their old deviltry. We published
yesterday an effusion from the sedtious and
insolent McCardle. The editor of the Bran
don Republican is endeavoring to vie with
McCardle. He says in his last issue:
We have borne the tyranny and insolence
of these contemplate hounds until patience
has ceased to be virtue, and were it not for
the bright clouds looming up in the North
sky promising relief at no far distant day,
we would urge our people to arm themselves
and rid our sunny cline of the internal nu-
isance, at the risk of total humiliation. We
cannot live much longer under Federal rule,
and if the Conservatives of the North do
not repudiate them and come to our relief
soon, we must defend ourselves against the
robbers and assassins, or be robbed of the
little remnant we saved from the wreck of
war, and be ourselve ground into the very

MIR. Edwin Butt, young gentleman twenty
one years of age, connected with large drv

ly, at three O'Clock that afternoon Mr. Butt
started from the point designated, and reach

seven minutes, thus beating time by three
minutes, and coming out apparently almost
as fresh as when he started. Without wish

two games of billiards and walked home. a
distance OF not over two miles. The stake
holder, being satisfied that Mr.. Butt had
fairly won the wager, promptly paid over the

upon the southern States can be expected.

elections in the States now represented. But
if the Radicals bring into the House, as they
say they will, fifty Radical negro representa-
tives, they will still maintain majority.
"The only salvation for the South and the
whole. country is to be found in the possible
chance that the southern people will reject

ONE HOUR WITH THEE.

One hour with thee, when none are near
To mar its golden tidel
o then thou seemest to me more dear
Than aught in Heaven beside.
On angels wings the moments glow,
Like stars of radiant light,
Unmindful that their rapid flow
Fast speeds approaching night.
One honr with thee, when sorrows gush
O'erf1ows my troubled soul
Like some resistless rivers rush,
Which seeks fatal goal
That hour dispells the rayless gloom
And sheds a halo bright,
As roseate rays of blushing morn
Disperse the darkest night.
One hour with thee when shadows fall
Across my checkered path,
Thy smiles Hume thy angry pail,
And gilds their turbid wrath.
One hour with thee when bitter woe,
Pervades my dreary heart,
1t seems like Heav'n on earth below,
1t doth such joy impart.
And when the hour of death draws nigh,
I'd have thee by my side,
To cheer the moments as they fly,
Oflife's expiring tide.
To gaze into my languid eye,
And press my check with thine,
To lull my bosoms faintest sigh,
And blend thy prayers with mine.
Oh when l thus to death shall bow,
While yet one breath remains,
I'll pledge, for thine, my dying VOW,
To meet in Heaven again.
United there, I'll constant prove,
And breathe but one refrain,
To bask in thy angelic love,
And bless thy hallowed name.
