THE WHY.-We are requested to state
that the arrest of Mr.. John F. Jordan, of
Maury county, for violation of the excise
law, was caused by. a refusal of Mr.. Jor
dan to report to the acting Assessor. He
claimed that the Assessor was not an officer
of the Treasury Department, and had no
authority to act as such. His friends are
confident that no charge of improper con-
duct can be proved against him.
CHANcERY CoURT.-This court was
engaged during the greater part of yester-
day in hearing the argument of w. F.
Cooper and John Reid, in the case of John
Doherty and Others against the Nashville
and Northwestern Railroad Company. The
question particularly before the court was
the validity of a trust assignment made by
the railroad company for the benefit of
creditors, Mr.. Cooper being for the de-
tense. The chancellor viii give his
decision in few days.
