The Supreme Court has rendered de.

chusctts, against Geo. NJ. White and 9TH
ers. The suit was to restrain the defend
ants from receiving payment from the
National Government for certain Texas
Indemnity bonds of the United States,
which the plaintiffs claim to belong to
the State. The bonds were sold by the
rebel Legislature, aud the reconstructed
State Government seeks to prevent their
payment. Various collateral questions
were raised regarding the jurisdiction Of
tho Court, and the ability of tho Court
to sue. The opinion Of the Court is very
long and able, and concludes that the
State Of Texas il entitled TO the relief
sought By the bill, and decree is ordered
accordingly. Justice Greer dissented as
to jurisdictions and merits of the cause,
and holds that Texas is not a State 10

bring suit. Justice Swain and Miller dis
sented as to the jurisdiction only. The
Supreme Court to-day, rendered dccis.

Since the days of John Gilpin no recorded
race has come to light in England so worthy
of immortal song as that which recently exhil-
arated the aristocratic regions of Mayfair and
St. James's The story is entertaining and in
structive. Lord Charles Hamilton, brother of
the first peer of Scotland, long the torment
and the terror of tradesmen, and distinguished
for many year by the nubilous condition of
his finances has at last been ignominiousy
hunted down. For some months previous to
tho event he had developed an irritability of
temper ill-calculated to allay the anxieties
of creditors. They found him first eva
sive, then recalcitrant and ut last highly
echinate and exasperatIng Accordingly they
combined to harass and Cypress him in man
ner with which many young gentlemen Of
fashion are well acquainted. but which no
amount of familiarity has ever recommended
with especial sweetness unto their pleasant
senses. In word, they set the bailiHs upon
him.
These, however, by the aid of IN hum
BILE but efficient expert in sherff's officers, he
was enabled for while to battle. A Hanson
cabman, named Sawyer who has acquired a
singular dexterity in "spottingn the myrmidons
of the law, piloted him for several weeks
through unfrequentcd lanes and obscure alleys
with an adroitness that Dick Swveler might
have envied. But unluckily, emboldened with
his temporary impunity, and lulled thereby to
a sense of false security, his lordship resolved
one day, about three weeks ago, upon the rash
exploit Of driving from hotel in Bond-st,
Longs, no doubt, in the direction of
the Westminster clubs. This wild
defiance proved his ruin. From tho
busting crowds Of. Piccadilly forth sprang an

We need not again entreat our readers not
to vote for any candidate who has already
been hoDored with official position and has be-
trayed his trust for sOrdid gain We have
urged this so often, and with such nipple illus

more, and with all possible emphasis, Vote for
no man who has, whether as legislator or
otherwise, misused public trust to fill his

against such traitors! Read over your ballots
carefully, and wherever you find name of
one who has disgraced Office by jobbery, erase
that name! Substitute better if you will !;
but scratch off the jobber any how! Make
your vote a telling protest against the nomi-

In our last Legislature, there was majority
of iObbers made up Of about sixty Democrats
and thirty Republicans. We promptly exposed
and denounced them ALL but we paid special
attention to such Of them as were chosen as
Republicans We printed their names con-

constituents not to let one of them get back
to the seat he had disgraced. And we circu-
late so generally over the State that none of
them could escape the consequences of such
exposure If any shall be reelected, it must be
that his constituents deliberately choose such
