The Courts.

AN INTERESTING. Casa CLAIM OF AN ADMIN
IsTRATRIx TO ACCOUNT FOR THE MONEY
VALUE OF sLAvEs.
ORPHANS COURT, Judge Parceu.-The Court
yesterday announced his decision in the case of
Dalton agt. Abel, formerly Willisns.) The
testator was q man .ef property, and left four
children, one OF whom married Dalton. The
widow, as administrative and guardian, re-
ceived large amount of money and made sew
eral settlements, and the charges were brought
by Dalton, her son-in-law, that she had been
guilty of waste, and he demanded q final
settlement. The largest item in the account
brought against her was about $50 zoe, for
slaves which were afterwards emancipated. The
Court said the bond as administrator Was
pie power to remove the Administrative ii she
failed to perform her duties. The children, en-
arriving at age had the right to inquire into the
acts Of the fduciary, and he que ted from various
decisions to show that such is the case.
On the question of accounting for the former
slaves, the fiduciary is not relieved OF RESPONSE
6 0iiity, and her acts as to them could be re-
spirit OF humanity, broke the shaekles Of the
colored race, and the Maryland Legislature,
moved by the same spirit. had promptly ex-
ment to those people. motion is made to
change the order OF the court, and direct that
the iduciary be charged with the value Of the
colored people who were owned by the estate.
The court has no power to sell them, and most
decidedly refuses to change such order. The
Court, in conclusion, said he did not believe in
using the term master" towards man. st.
Paul had said there was but one master-God--
who presided over the angels of heaven and
controlled the destinies Of man on earth.

seventh Ward Irish Republican As.
ISOLATION.

Mr.. Boacen their Choice for Mayor-Mr. Bosrell
Pitched into.
A regular meeting Of the Irish Republican
Association Of the Seventh Ward was held last
night, at Delany's Hall, on AZ street; Thomas
Caraher in the chair, and Robert Burns, Secre-
tary. Fourteen new members were admitted
Mr.. JAS. Coleman offered resolution "That
the Hon. SaylesJ. Bowen il hereby declared the
choice Of the Irish for Mayor Of this city; and
we hereby pledge ourselves to use all fair means
to secure his Nomination and election Mr..
Coleman said that Fred. A. Boswell, the other
night, at Island Hall, had made insnuations
about the new converts to the Republican faith,
meaning the Irish, and said that none of them
supported him at the last election; and further,
that he does not want their support at this late
day. AT the last election he was glad to get
now be in the position he so unworthily fIls.
He hoped to hear free aud full discussion on
this resolution.
The Chair said it was a free meeting. and he
cOurted free discussion for and against the
resolutions but no one seemed disposed to take
up the cudgel, and the vote on the resolution
was adopted unanimously.
Mr.. Patrick Cullinare, Corporation contractor,
said in relation to the insinuation of Boswell
that the Irish could not be depended upon to
vote, except for the winning side, he (Cullinane)
believed that if by chance Mr.. Bowen did not
get the nomination and the choice was the
blacklist negro in the city that the Irish to a
man would all vote for him. [Applause.l Mr.
Boswell made fling at his getting the contract,

what is apparent ~ ~.s az .- boswell thinks the
Mayor is about to fall and he is looking auv~s r.
catch somewhere so as not to fall with him.
lApplause.l As to the heavy taxes complained
OF, he thought il made no difference to the tax
payer-they did not care for the taxes so that
they get better pay and more work. What do
we care for taxes? AS long as YOU keen taxes
down there will be nothing to do on Corpora
ton work and this city will be a mud hole Zap

Mayor Bowen at length, saving if ever there

FEEDING CANARY BIRDs.-Some time ago my
pet canary ate his feathers, q habit very gene
raj among the feathered tribes domesticated.
Considering the matter, concluded that the
bird needed some pabulum through which he
might replace the waste Of nature, and as feath-
ers are highly heterogeneous, that nitrogen was
needed. Therefore gave him at dinner time
small piece of roast beef, and was pleased to see
him attack Ii vigorously. Gradually improving
the idea, Dickey was supplied regularly with
his ration of beef, (fresh or corned - it hap
pened, but the lean part only much to the inn
provement of his vigor and appearance. His
feathers lay as they fell from him, and were un-
touched, and the unpleasant habit ceased.
A raisin occasionally culled from plum cake,
q piece Of cake, small bone, bunch OF water
cress from the spring, are ell welcome 10 him,
and the sagaci0us little fellow comes to the
front Of his cage and calls and calls again at the
time Of dinner until he gets his share. He knows
enough too, when his pieces Of cake get hard
and dry, to take them to his fountain and put
them to soak In the water, when no will finish
them up clean.
These little attentions to his feed, with regu-
lar baths every two or three days in tepid water,
and perfect cleanliness in his cage, have i'm
proved his voice very much, and all day long
and through the long winter evenings, by the
light of the lamp, bis merry song enlive0 the
household, until he is left sole occupant below.
ought to say that his station ID near window
facing the south, where he gets the light Of the
sun fully, and In the dining room whore he has
most company. i can conceive Of no more
pleasant pet in house. a filthy Cat or yelpins
