4 Suit Involving Title TO Nearly
Half the Prstcrtant Orphan Asy.
lum Properly.
[Ernm tho 8. E. Call. 2zd.l

The Fourth District Court was occu-
pied during the creator part Of tho day
Yesterday In the trial of the case OF
D.. Il. Bedell OF al. against Thomas
Dorland ct al, an action for rcpartition
Of certain lands in the western section
of the city. The plaintiffs claim that
in 1852 a tract Of land Of about fifty
acres, lying between Market, Page,
Webster aud Octavla streets, and In
Guiding the tract upon which the
Protestant Orphan Asylum now stands,
was owned by seven parties, Of whom
d. II. Bedell, Enoch G. Dorland and
Peter V. Dorland each held a seventh.
They allege that about this time Il. 5.
Thompson obtained a forged deed con-
veying to him the interest Of the two
Dorlands, and that. Judge Thomas
Dorland, pretending to hold a power
of attorney from D. r. Bedell, lie and
Thompson, acting with the other own
ers of the land, made n partition OF 1t
among themselves, and at the same
time donated to the orphan Asylum
the two blocks now occupied by 1t.
The present plaintiffs claim to be the
representatives OF Bedell and Dorland,
and by this suit are endeayoring to
break up this fraudulent partition and
recover an undivided th~reo-sevenths
of the whole tract, Us we'll as to have
a new partition made. If the effort
should be successful, the Orphan Asy-
lum would lose nearly half of Its prop
crty, and other parties in like proper
ton. The Court was occupied yester-
day In hearing documentary evidence,
and the testimony of Milo Hoadley as
to the preliminary survey. The trial
will be continued to-day.

NEW York, November 3d. Dis
patches from Washington to the Herald
say that reliable Information of the
real object Of the visit of the Grand
Duke to the United States reports that
he Is charged with a mission of an i'm
portant and delicate character to our
Government, being nothing less than
proposals for an alliance offensive and
defensive between the two nations.
European war being apprehended,
Russia believes that with active hid
from the United States, or assisted by
an offensive privateering fleet under
Russian letters Of marque, she could
defy all Europe.

The Herald has personal information
from Ben Butler, Henry Wilson and
Thurlow Weed that they know nothing
of the formation of an nti-Grant par
ty. Wilson also disbelieves that Sum-
ner Is engaged in the movement.
Raleigh dispatches say that nearly
200 Kuklux, 1t is believed, at the Gen.
eral Court on the 27th instant Will
confess, many making complaining
and ridiculous statements. A more
demoralized set could scarcely be
found. It will DO claimed at Court
that the Order is purely political.
The Governors message, sent In yes
terday, shows the debt OF North Caro-
lima to DO $780, 800, 900. The people are
unable to pay the interest on the
same, and the Governor recommends
the sale Of railroad interests to pre-
vent reputation. He says that no
financial policy should be determined
upon until the facts connected with
the debt can be a~scertalned, In order
that some conclusion may be reached
as to the disposition Of liabilities OF
the State. &t
A resolution was offered In the
House, and referred, reciting that as
debt was created by strangers elected
under bayoncts, who voted moneys to
| railroads and otherwise smbezzled the
funds. provision should be made for
repudiating the whole State debt.
