roots, apples, pumpkins and vegetables of
various kinds, mixed with q small quantity
of corn meal, should be given them. At

and during tho last three weeks of the fat
tening they should be fed exclusively on
cooked corn meal and slops. 1t is ext emely

remark, that warm and comfortable sleeping

: The CASE OF Mr.. DAVIS. Some
persons seem to think that the allot-
ment Of Chief Justice Chase to the
Virginia Circuit indicates that Mr..
Davis is to be tried. We think it in
dicates no such thing. Mr.. Chase
has repeatedly refused to hold Cir
cult Court in Virginia, because the
State was under the control of the
military. He will adhere to this de-
termination. His own record shows
him to have been at one time so de-
cided q believer in the doctrine OF
secession Us to render it improbable
that he will ever willingly sit upon
the case of Mr.. Davis.

Count Bismarck, in the German
Parliament, in caustic speech, has
settled, so far as Prussia is interested,
all hopes Of Polish nationality. Ad-
dressing the Polish deputies, he said /:
''The re-establshment- of Poland is
fantastical dream. & There are not
Poles enough in the world to accom-
plish it." It should be remembered
that the Count is an aristocrat, and
does not know how many. Poles
it would take to do the Cracow-
vienne.
Referring to the unsettled condi-
tion of Southern people, the Thomas
vile (Ga.) Enterprise expresses the
belief that no less than one-half of
the Southern white people have
changed homes since the war, and
about one-third of them have changed
States.

We observe that several arrests
have been made in Baltimore of
parties connected with this affair,
charged with obtaining money under
false pretences from funds belonging
to the Southern Orphans Associa-
tion. The following paragraph in
relation to the matter is from. the
Baltimore Gazette:
Upon the merits or demerits of the

courts by the members of the "South-
ern Orphans Association" we do not

ment. Neither do we presume MS

ter or conduct of any of the parties

in way that has caused the public
to suspect, whether rightfully or
wrongfully we do not pretend to soy,
that certain persons connected with
the association will derive consider
able advantage from the speculation,
and the Southern orphans little or
none. The names Of number Of
gentlemen, who repudiate all know

that the affair is to come off at the
Maryland Institute on the 3Oth of

There is an interesting question
before a jury in the Supreme Court,
New York. 1t is, in brief, rs follows,
William A. Sanborn, bought of Silas
O. Herring safe which the vender
alleged, under warrantee, was bur-
glar proof. The safe was forced
by burglar, and $4,000 taken
thcrefrom. The question for the jury
to decide is, is Herring, under
the warrantee, responsible for the
money stolen? If held responsible,
the burglar proof safe business will
be rather an unsafe one for any gen.
tleman with money to engage in.
The jury will, probably, definitely
settle the question this week.

much has been said, will not take
place until the testimony Of the wit

This witness is now in Ohio, and the

that the diary is now in precisely the

Suspension of Civil Causes.

cAoPChbAOh VI OxFI1 Onu6cHs
The following reply of Judge Al
drich to request of the citizens of
Williamsburg District, that he would
suspend the trial of cases on the civil
docket, as. far as the collection of
debts WAS concerned, is published in
the Kingtree Star:
KNGsTREE, April 9, 1867.
GENTLEMEN: Through our mutual
friend, Gen.. Harllee, T have received
the proceedings of an ':informal
meeting of large number of the citi-
zens of Williamsburg District, held
this morning, in which you.request
me, if consistent with my duty after
consultation with the. bar, to suspend
the trial of cases on the civil docket
for the collection of debts. You also
say that you have no disposition to
evade the law, but that your action
is taken simply from considerations
of the present impoverished and suf-
fering condition of the community
generally. ,7
I need hardly assure you of my en-
tire sympathy: with the sentiment
which has induced you to hold this
meeting and make. this application.
But I have no power to entertain
your proposition, nor, do T. see how
the gentlemen of the bar can do it
without the consent Of their clients.
1t is my duty to administer the laws
enacted by the Legislature. It is the
duty of all to obey them.
I think, however, there is needless
alarm on this subject. I do not be-
lieye it is the intention of cred ditors
to press their debtors; generally
speaking, the purpose is to obtain a
lien in order to secure the debt, and
when this is done, the creditor will
be satisfied. It seems hard to bur
den the debtor with costs now; but
permit me to say, in all kindness,
the debtor is more to blame for this
than the creditor. My experience
convinces me that many suits have
been commenced because the debtor
refused to pay the interest account
on his debt, although he was well
aware that without that interest it
was difficult for his creditor to pre-
cure the necessaries of life. Such
debtors deserve no sympathy, and
are entitled to no consideration; vet
feel certain that even in these cases
the general purpose is not to collect
more than the interest due.
1t is curious fact, too, that the
most earnest complaint against the
opening of the courts and the collec-
tion of debts, comes from those sec
tions Of the State which have been
least injured by the invai .g army.
[ do not pretend to account for this,
but the fact is SO, and it is curious
commentary or human nature. ..
Trusting, gentlemen, that the good
God viii bless us with propitious
seasons, and that the Fall Court will
find you able, from the proceeds of
abundant crops, to satisfy the arrear-
ages of interest, and thus )btcin an
extension of time from your liabili-
ties, who, [ am persuaded, will in
dulge you to the utmost limit. I am,
very respectfully, your obedient ser.
