In this interesting squabDe for office Judge Brady
has delivered the following opinlon:-
II is for the Attorney General to determine whether
an action OF this character shall be brought and
continued-(code 432 the People vs.. The Attorney
General; 22 Burborn, Il4)-and If he determine
there being several caimants to bring an action
Tor each one he may do s0 but think the Court has
tne power 70 compel consolidation, proceeding
contemplated by section 44) OF The Code. It
~ the better course to unite the claimants
ana try the right to the office in one
action, inasmuch as the proof IS kindred in
character and the defendants should not
be subjected to the expense OF litigation, which,
unless united. must each be affirmative and nde-
pendent OF the other though dependent on the same
proofs. This Court has no power TO dismiss q pro-

The wan street markets continue very dull. The
stock Exchange and Gold Board hav adjourned to
Saturday, out OF respect for the holy day Of Good
Friday. The banks and private bankers VIII remain
open, as the day Is not legal holiday.
GOLD ADVANCED TO 1881.
The 'bull" party In the Gold Room made another
advance In the premium, basing their action upon
the announcement from London That the specie In
the Bank OF England had fallen OF 34ooooo.
Last week the decrease was $500, ,000-a steady
drain, which Is regarded as likely to render
the London money market active. Fivetwen-
ties came quoted at ssA tonight, which
is lower than in the forenoon. Gold at It's
lowest sold at ll21S, but from that point steadily
advanced to l1S3s-the clique brokers being very
conspicuous in the movement. The loanlng rate
and the gold balances at the Clearing House also In
dcate speculative operations In view of the expected
decline in the receipts OF cotton from this time
nenceforward. The receipts for the current week
are reported over 1000 bales less than last week.
