The CASE OF CORONER WALKER.-The Co
lumbia Phoenix says that Messrs. James D.
Tradewell and Fickling Pope, counsel for
Coroner Walker, submitted their return and
answer before so-called Judge Willard, on Tues
day morning. The substance of this docu-
ment, with the exception of the following, was
published yesterday morning:
That the said Thomas P. Walker is now the
legally appointed Coroner Of Richland Dis
trict, appointed to hold for four years and un-
til q successor shall be appointed; and that
such successor has not been 80 appomted, and
that W. B. Johnston is not Coroner legally ap-
pointed by the laws and Constitution OF the
State Of South Carolina, and OF the Constitu-
ton Of the United States, That II the said w.
B. Johnston has been appointed Coroner, as
aforesaid, his term OF office has not yet COM
menced, nor can his said term of Office COM
menoe until the term Of Office Of the said Thom-
as p. Walker, this respondent, has expired
which term Will not expire until the 2lst day OF
December, which will be in the year OF our
Lord 1855. it.,-34 90
Before the above answer and return was
read, the counsel submitted motion to trans
fer the case 10 the United States Court, on the
ground that it involved the constitutionality OF
law Of Congress. Upon this there was an
animated argument. Mr. Fickling opened the
argument at much length. he was followed
BY Mr.. Pope on the Same side. The Attorney
General tso-oalled) replied, and Mr. Tradewen
closed the argument. The Associate Justice
(so-called) overruled the motion, and peremp-
torily ordered the case forward On its merits.
Mr.. Pope opened the argument, and after
speaking about quarter of an hour, he pro-
posed to show that, under the lawful Constitu-
ton Of South Carolina, the lawful judges ofthe
State could alone try the case. Here he was
interrupted by the Attorney General (so-call-
ed), saying such line Of argument was insult
ing to this Court, and moved that counsel be
arrested in his argument. MIR. Pope retorted,
and asked if the Court and counsel we're afraid
of truth and light. The Judge said he would
take time to consider whether the argument OF
MIR. Pope would be insulting, and adjourned
the case until Wednesday morning, when Mr.
Pope was to resume his argument under the
ruling Of the Court.

ACCIDENT ON The SOUTH CAROLINA RAILROAD

ACCIDENT ON CHE SOUTH CAROLINA RAHRoAD
"A NEGRO KILLED AND HoaBIBLY MANaIED
The passengers on the down train from Sum-
merville yesterday morning reported that
the body of an unknown negro was seen near
the ten mile hill in horribly mangled condi-
ton. Coroner Whiting was notified, and left
yesterday afternoon for the scene Of the accl-
dent to hold an inquest. The sup2osition ls
that the negro was asleep on the track and
was run over by the Tuesdays night train, and
that the early daylight train Of yesterday had
also passed over the remains, which cut them
up in the manner described. From the repre-
sentations made it would seem almost impossl-
BILE to identify the body, as all semblance OF
humanity was lost.
