SmaIIhouse, pending in our Circuit Court
fHis Honor, BENZ. p. CisseiI, presidingD
came up for hearing this morning. There
are two actions pending, the chief one
having been continued for the defendant
yesterday. The nature of the present sui
is as follows:
When Captain NIcReynoldst command
/ ing the steamer Hartford. arrived during
| last night, by directions of mis- attorneys
i AFRO Dyer, ESQ of Evansville,an and j. W.
/ Blcken. Esq, OF this place, he refused e
! pay the tolls at the lock, at Rumsey, de-
| manded by G. q. SInanhouse, as agent o.
| the Green and Barren Rivers Navigation
| fused to permit the steamer Hartford &c
This morning an application for inlunc-
ton against the Green and y trren River
/ Navigation Com pany was prayed for BY
| Captain McReynoids, and a powerful ar
4 gument made by Mr. Dyer In favor o.
granting the Injunction. The Court, in an
| able opinion, pronounced the act of tht
Kentucky Legislature creating the Nayi-
| CATION Company and transferring TO ~ the
locks and dams unconsti ptionai and void
and granted the Injunction.
This decision OF the Court has caused
| universal rejoicing among our citizens
| Henceforth it is hoped tnat the Navigation
of Green River will be free from monopo-
lists, AMI that the act of he Legislature
creating this ON pany, now declared void
will never be re-enacted.
Tie gratitude OF the public Is due Capt

powerful monopoly, and the result hai
verified the old adsge that " FORUM
