t0rneys OF Mr.. Davis TO 1e two cases, laying dam
ages OF $4,000 on eacn. The original petition set
forth their "damnable practices" which extended
throughout the year 1857 and IN consequence Of
chance to learn the particulars but which will DO

desired TO give publicity to the "doings" Of the
Western Union Telegraph Company, as II was con
of April and the 24th OF May 1861 only. As 40
the other case Is reached, which will extend from the
above date to the end Of the year. the public can ex
pect denouement that will show the outrages
perpetrated by the monopoly In fostering the So

shots were exchanged, and the troops fed and were
seen no more.
The party then took the carts, horses. mules and
whatever they found suited to their needs, and with
these loaded with their surplus arms and munitions
took up their march for the interior. Their design
was to join the forces Of Julio Parata Marcano and
other patriot leaders operating in the vicinity OF Ho

Sehor Pla who was experimenting the labors OF she
sugar plantation. This gentleman ls well known IN
