A Mr.. Kolzakotf, q Russian retired colonel, q
noble, and wearing several decorations, has late
" been trici in Moscow for cheating in selling
horse. Trading horses was really his only
means Of subsistence, though 1t was carried on
secretly. At last he was caught selling to Ia
DIV a horse with cracked foot, the defect being
carefully concealed by the use Of cement. lie
was criminally prosecuted, and sentenced to
suffer the loss Of his nobility, rank, pensions and
decorations, and to be fined and imprisoned be-
sides. The sentence was thought to be very
severe even in Russia.
Il is the greatest Of mistakes to suppose Polish
nationality is extinct. Never, We are assured
upon unimpcachablc authority, did It burn with
intcnscr heat. The generation now rising up
more resolved than their fathers to have king
dom Of their own. Russia can keep down in
ferior races, but she can neither conciliate the
Poles nor Russianire them.

MONTGOMERY, ALA.
Correction AbOnt the Decision OF
Judge Pelham.

MONTGOMERY, Ala, Jan. 2.-In
recent press dispatches from this city.
it was stated on authority of the
Cozuaa5ian Guide that Circuit Judge
Pelham had decided that the a la
bama Legislature was not a legal
body. and that William H. Smith is
not a legal Governor. A dispatch
correctly represented the statement
referred to, but the facts in the case
are these: A vacancy in the Office of
Probate Judge Of Shelby County was
reported by the Governor. who was
required by the Constitution to issue
a commission to fill the vacancy; af-
terwards the question arose as to
i whether there really was a vacancy.
in determining this question, Judge
Pelham decided that if vacancy had
not occurred in the manner prescribed
by law, the Governors commission
designating another man for the Office
was null aud void. The decision in
no way relates to the validity of either
the Legislature or Governors Office.
