: that the order selling .this s36 500 Of notes
was mistake without fraud, and that the
purchasers Of these notes at the judiciaI
sale were innocent purchasers. The sCourF,
therefore, while holding that the 1886, 500
Of notes in question were not subject to re-
demption by the Trustees of the Bank Of
Virginia, yet that the claim of the creditor
in Vest Virginia, which had been errone-
ously paid in pert by the proceeds Of the
judicial sale Of these notes, seemed to be o
valid claim against the trust fund in sub
stitution for that Of the holder of the notes.
The Court, therefore, ordered evidence to
be taken respecting this, claim, and also re-
specting 50, 600 of notes held by the petit
toners from Kanawha not liable to the OBJ
lection urged against the S36,5O0.
The case, therefore, goes back to the Com
missioner in order that further evidence
may be heard.

Z PARTIAL DECISION IN THE BANK OF VlR-
GINA CAsE.-Yesterday the argument of
the petitioners from West Virginia on the
motion to remove Messrs. Tardy and Saun-
ders; receivers of the Bank of Virginia, was
concluded, and Judge Underwood rendered
q partial decision in the cause. The Court
declared emphatically that there was no
ground shown for the charges OF fraud
made by either Of the contesting parties,
and held that petitioners had o standing
in court emitting them to full considers
ton of their claims. It decided that the
court of West Virginia, after decreeing the
payment of creditor whose claim was evl.
denced by $50, 500 of notes of the Bank Of
Virginia, erred afterwards (apon those
notes being attached for the satisfaction OF
the claim of another creditor) in order
ing the sale Of this $4,000 OF notes,
holding that these notes had ceased
to be currency, and that the court
of West Virginia had no jurisdiction to
Esat them as currency. II held, therefore,

Mr.. Sherlock S. Gregory, of Berea, Ohio,
writes as follows to the Cleveland Herald !:
" Judging from what light We can gather
from the Scriptures respecting the exercise
of Gods power in the universe, and also
Judging from analogical evidence derived
from observations respecting the exercise
of such power, as evinced in the move
ments of the earth, the moon, and the pri-
mary planets, it is concluded that the tides
are formed by the power Of God acting, not
through or by means of the moon or sun,
but Immediately upon the waters."

NEGRO Row ON THE STREET CARs-AT-
TEMPT TO CREATE A RIOT.-In speech
made on the Capitol Square towards the
close of the retnion jollifcation on Tues.
day afternoon, Ben. Scott, disreputable
negro, called by those of his color Colonel,
in addressing the crowd threatened soon to
test the sincerity of the conversion Of the
people of Virginia to Unionism by plan
of his own, and intimated that be would
see whether they wouldn't soon be back in
o territorial condition. Yesterday he put
his threat into execution, and came very
near creating riot.
Car No. 6, Samuel Bowman driver, was
going down Main street at about 2 o'clock
It was hailed near Twentieth street by Ben
Scott, who jumped aboard and took seat
The driver stopped his horses and told the
negro that this wes one Of the cars set apart
for the ladies, and called his attention to
the fact that it was designated as such by q
white ball on the roof. Scott said he didn't
care his money was as good as anybody's,
and he was going to ride, or something to
that effect. The driver thereupon put him
off by force, and the fellow went away
grumbling, soon to return in company with
policeman and q warrant on which Bow
man and the conductor, Richard Miller,
were arrested. Being carried before ma
gistrate, they were bailed to appear before
the Mayor this morning.
Having thus disposed of Bowman, Scott
took couple of evil-disposed darkies with
him and made second attack. This time
it was upon car No. II, of which William
G. Toler, an ex-policeman, and o worthy
man, is the driver. They pushed their way
in, needless of the remonstrances of the
youthful conductor. MIR. Toler told them,
what they knew, that this was one of the
ladies' cars. The answer was impudent
and defiant whereupon some ladies who
we're in the car got out, and Mr.. Toler drove
on to the First police-station and sent IN
for an officer. The report is that Captain
Callahan, the officer in charge, refused to
answer the summons, and the negroes were
then elected by officers Knox, Fuller, and
Weimer, and taken to the station.
The prisoners we're kept for while Of
the station, and then bailed in the sum OF
sl00 each for their appearance before the
Mayor this morning. Subsequently they
procured warrants for the arrest of the po.
Icemen by whom they were elected from
the car. Ben Scott's comrades are Albert
Gary, S. G. Jeter, and John Graves.
These disturbances of the peace, as init
mated in our first paragraph, caused con.
siderable excitement among the idle colored
men who loaf about the market and
wharves. Scott and his friends were loud.
mouthed in the proclamation of their
wrongs, and tried every means to get up q
row, but the better class saw that it was
merely an attempt to gain notoriety, and
would have nothing to do with it. Colone,
Egbert ordered Sergeant Terry and squad
Of six police to the spot, and this force had
little difficulty in restoring order.

LOCAL MATTERS.

The STATUS OF TIE STATE-WHATG GENE
RAJ CANDY AND GOVERNOR WALKER WILL
Do.-General Candy has not yet turned
oyer the government of the State to the
civil authorities, and has not indicated with
any degree of certainty what he proposes
to do. We have good authority, however,
for'saying that on receipt of official infor-
nation that the President has signed the
bill for the readmission of the State, he
will at once turn over the Executive de-
partment of the Government to Governor
Walker, and will nominally continue to ex-
ercise legislative authority until the meet
ing of the General Assembly. In the
mean time, however, he will make no ap-
pointments or removals, and viii interfere
as little as possible in the affairs of the
State.
The army officers now holding offices in
the Capitol are already running over their
books and "putting their house in order -
preparatory to surrendering their trusts to
their successors, who will probably be elect
ed as soon as the Legislature assemblies.
Some Of them express feeling of relief -at
the prospect of getting rid Of the RESPONSE
bilities of civil Office.
eanSA ohu LID pOpuldT u1U Qe
camp Colonel Owens were besieced by con-
gratulatory callers yesterday. AS soon as
|Hhe receives official information Of the sign.
ing of the Admission bill, Colonel Walker
will be sworn in by one of the Judges Of
the Court of Appeals, and at once enter upon
his duties as the elected Governor of Vir.
ginia, under the new Constitution. HiE
first official act will probably be to issue 0
proclamation conyening the General Assem-
bly, on Tuesday, February 9Th. This il
thought by some to be necessary, as thu
resolution passed by the two Houses at th'
late session fixing time for the reassem
bling of the Legislature was not presented
to the Governor in accordance with the re
quirements of the new Constitution.
The propriety of formal and publ
Inauguration of the Governor has beel
agitated; but the custom of having sucl
inaugurations has not hitherto been fol
lowed in Virginia, though in vogue in mos
of the States Of the Union. If anything o
the kind is done, we suppose it will be unde
the auspices of the Legislature, and th
Governor will be expected to take that op
portunity to make his fellow-citizens &C
euainted with his views of public affairs.

OPERATIONS OF THE AMERICAN TRACT
SOCIETY IN THE SOUTH AND WEsT.-We
CLEAN the following interesting figures from
the last quarterly report of the Richmond
agency of this Society, which operates in
Virginia, North and South Carolina, Geor.
gia, and Alabama. The Society has had
ffty-seren: missionary colporteurs at work
in these States during the past three months
who report to have labored in the aggregate
III months and % days, visiting from
house to house, holding religious meetings
and distributing the printed Word. They
report to have held religious converse OF
prayed with 1886 families, and to have
visited in all 1871; held 1,066 public re.
ligious meetings found 2,55I families des-
titute of all religious books except the
Bible, and 1889 destitute of the Bible
2,SO9 families who habitually neglect at
tending any place Of religious worship.
The colporteurs report that in many Sec
tions of the country visited the people have
very few religious privileges, sometimes no
religious meetings held for months together
except those held by the colporteurs. The
Society has distributed gratuitously through
this agency 81, l,6O6.l3 worth of religious
books and tracts. The estimated cost of
carrying on this missionary work for the
quarter is $5,O67.7l. Mr.. 7. L. D. Walford
is superintendent of this department of the
work.
The same Society has recently sent out o
delegation. to California for the purpose Of
establishing an agency in the far West.
The report of this delegation was such as to
induce the Society to appoint district Sc
cretary for the Pacific coast and establish q
depository in San Francisco. The opera
tions already inaugurated on the Pacific
coast involve on expenditure of from sl2,-
900 to SIS, 900 this year, and they have put
a corps of colporteurs into the field, one Of
whom is Chen Chong, of the Chinese Mis-
sion Church of California, to work among
the eighty thousand Cinnamon in that coun-
