AreGtus B. JolIJlsOn u.s. colonel EnlDlnOs Clark,
Commanding the Seventh Re0iment.--This case,
which has excited considerable discussion among
the National Guard, came up to-day upon an appca-
lion TO render permanent preliminary injunction
made by Judge Cerke restraining Colonel CLARK from
approving OF the expulsion OF the plaintii by the
Fourth company OF the Seventh regiment for absence
from drill. Mr.. George W. wngate appeared for the
motion and argued that the plaintfn having been
transferred into the Fifth company before the ex-
pulslon, and having since renamed therein, could
was void, not being IN accordance with the company
by laws; that It having been dIsapproved OF
il became res adjodicaa and that the new Adjutant

tended tnat the power VI company to expel for ab

amendments to the Militia law and by general orders

but retention after expiration OF enlistment; tna the
penalty imposed by law being fine no company had
. right to add any further punishment TO II, and
bnaiiy that membership In the National Guard was

aDy attempt TO take II away.
Mr.. John Fowler, Jr., appeared for the defendant.
and argued that the plaintir had not been regu-
that the same was in strict accordance with the by
laws OF the company; that the disapproval OF the
defendant had been only conditional and based upon
certain orders from headquarters; and that upon
their abrogar0n he was free TO approve Of the COM
pany acIion that the whole aIaif was one entirely
OF military discretion, and that the courts had no
jurisdiction TO intervene in the matter.
The Court stated that the questions were novel
seen for offences committed prior to any alleged
transfer II was questionable whether the right 10
punish them by expulsion did not still continue.
That he would, therefore, deny the motion, staying,
however, all proceedings by the defendant 50 as 20

that great many persons were In the haolt OF SELL

looms open in the Seventeenth ward. He had often
been surprised 10 see the number OF places
open, ana he mad determined not to countenance
anything like persecution. The mau Gilroy

believed that Gilroys arrest was nothing but a
piece OF persecution and 1t his duty to project

sons Of the Excise law the matter would be
