the Issues in which have for some time involved
good deal OF curious ana interesting litigation in.
Guiding question as TO the jurisdiction OF the
Supreme Court over the Common Pleas, were OH the
day calendar in Part OF the Common Pleas yester-
dav. II will be remembered by the readers OF the
HERALD In which all the facts pertaining to these
cases have already fully appeared that they grow
out OF that ever memorable "Black Fridayn In Wall

On the first case being called from the calendar,
EX-Judgc Emott said he was ready to proceed
Mir. David Dudley Field, on behalf of the defend
ants, said he was not ready to go on. lie said an
order had been made at the Special Term OF the
Supreme Court removing the causes from the Court
OF Common Pleas to that court. An appeal had
been taken by the plaintir from that orderto the
General Term OF the Supreme Court, which was
fully argued there, but which not yet decided.

Mr. Field said that under the order OF Judge
to the supreme Court, and it would be courtesy
In the Court Of Common Pleas to postpone the trial
for some reasonable time to await the decision of
the General Term Of the Supreme Court
Mr.. EmOtt contended that the meaning OF the pro-
vision OF the code under which these suits were
transferred contemplated q transfer TO some other
county and not transfer from one court to another
court or coordinate jurisdiction in the county
He hoped. therefore. that the Court Of Common
Pleas would not permit its dignity TO be assailed by
an order from Judge OF another court OF cO.Ordi-
nate jurisdiction. It was within the power Of the
Court OF Common Pleas to determine whether
Judge or General Term Of the Supreme Court could
deprive 1t OF its jurisdiction OF pending bsfore
1t. The sclf-respect OF the Judge should not per.
mit II. and this Court should go on and determine
the question as TO the jurisdiction OF Judge Barnard
In making the order
Judge Robinson was Of opinion that. under the
circumstances while an appeal was pending before

be uncoUrtoous tOmperatiyey order the trial to 60

This was actlon Instituted by the government to

$4,000. The notes In dispute were purchased by
Jay Cooke Co. in 1857, and by the defendants paid
into the SUB Treasury, they receiving the amount
therefor; and subsequently the notes were rec elved
o. the Treasury In Washington when upon scrutiny,
they were discovered to be counterfeits.

OF the same date OF issue, numbers, series and
amounts were produced Ia court, and were SO

that when the cigars first pronered for sale TO
the principal witness, Brandon, the cigars were
stamped. In swearing to this Xyques had forgotten
that he had previously made afdavt that the cigars
were never stamped. This gross discrepancy In his
testimony at once struck the Assistant Dislrct AT
