IMPRISONMENT FOR DEBT-A CURIol

IMPRISONMENT FOR DEBT-A CURIOUS
CAsE.-Mr. Martin Baker, of this county,
was arrested and put in jail at this place
last Friday for debt. Most persons thought
that this thing had played out in this county,
but in this case it was decided by Judge
Shackleford to be perfectly legitimate. 1t
seems that Mr.. Kent, of Louisa, got judy
ment in Louisa court against Mr.. Baker
some time ago for sum OF money, but just
before the rendition of the judgment Mr..
Baker sold his land for cash. The eXecu-
ton was sent up to this county and served
ON MIR. Baker, and he admitted that he had
the money and intended to keep it. This
the sheriff reported, and he was ordered to
arrest Baker and put him In jail. This was
done on Friday last, and on Saturday Baker
cot out writ Of habeas corpus; but after
q full hearing of his case he was remanded
to Jail by Judge shaek;l Ie presiding in
the circuit court, now in session here, to
STAY until he should show just cause why
he should not satisfy the execution.-Char

The city of Richmond has shown more
life, energy, and business enterprise, since
the war, than any other city in the South.
Her business men, starting out as they did
immediately after the war, with almost the
whole business portion Of the city entirely
consumed by a destructive fire, built ND
stores and offices on the ruins, and now the
city presents better appearance than any
Other. we have seen. The merchants are
pushing ahead, determined not to be beaten
ought to consider it their dutu to see that
they. succeed. Just as good bargains can
be obtained in Richmond as anywhere else,
and 1t is certainly better for our people to
buy there, as the freights are less than from
any other point; and by spending their
money In their own State they will reduce
taxation and benefit themselves in many.
