SUPERIOR CoURT-CIvIL TERM-DEwEY, j.
The arguments in the case of the inhabitants of
Dana VS.. the inhabitants of Petersham, to re-
cover payment for the support of pauper, one
Calvin J. Carter, and his son Willard, lad of
eight years, were heard yesterday afternoon,
Hon. P. Emory Aldrich for the plaintiffs and
Hon. VIM, Castor, mayor of Boston, for the
defendants, occupying about five hours. Both
arguments were very able in their review of the
evidence and of the law of settlement as appl-
cable to the case. The question is, whether said
Carter has settlement in Petersham or in Dana.
The plaintiffs claim that he had a settlement in
Petersham by virtue of contributing to fill the
quota of that town in the performance of mill
tary duty in the late war; also, that lis grand
father, John Carter, had a settlement in Peters
ham. Defendants claim that Calvin j. Carter had
settlement in Dana by reason of his father,
Silas j. Carter, owning real estate and paying
taxes there, which the plaintiffs deny, and the
plaintiffs claim that if the father had settle
ment there, Calvin being then a minor, it did
not give him settlement there. The Judge re-
served his decision. Aldrich and Brimblecom
for the plaintiffs; CASTOR, Field of Athol, and
Utley, for the defendants.

LONDON. Feb. 24.-In the house of commons,
tonight, MIR. Disraeli made powerful speech on
the foreign policy of England. He urged the
house to consider the gravity of the eastern
question, and the serious consequences of Rus
sia's reputation of the treaty of 1856, which it
had cost England such sacrifices to make He
said it had been generally believed that RusselPs
GRAND to Versailles was to announce to Bis
marck that England stood ready to Join Prussia
in opposing Russian reputation. Now it
seems that the government denied that such
was the object of Russell's mission.
Mr. Gladstone replied, denouncing Mr.. Dis
raeli's differences and expressing scrprise that
he should cOndescend to heed and repeat the ru-
mors on which they were based The proposal
to estrange Russia, at a moment SO critical, by
gratuitous language, was simply mad. The
conference would hear Russia's case, in all fair
ness, and act on it with justice. He declared
that there was no truth in the report that a
messenger had been sent to Versailles to con-
graduate the Prussian princes on their VIC
tories.
Grant Duff laid before the house the budget
for India, which is highly favorable statement
of the financial condition of that country.
