CanceliinT OF stnte nond..

The cdnmittee appointed by the present
Legislature, according to section of an act
passed June II, 1870, to examine into re-
turned bonds and cancel the same, COM
menced work yesterday, but have been re-
heved a large amount of the work placed
before them in the cancellation of bonds by
the latter part of section 8 of an act passed
December IL, 1869, as follows: That when
any company under provision of this act
shall pay into the Treasury of the State
bonds which have been issued by the State
to said company, the said bonds shall
be cancelled; but should any compa-
ny, in discharge of its own debts, pay
into the Treasury any bonds that were is
sued TO other companies, that may still be
indebted to the State, such bonds so paid
in shall be held by the State as purchased
bonds, retaining lien for the State upon
the road to which said bonds were original
ly issued, until the debt of said road to the
State shall be fully discharged, when the
bonds so held shall be cancelled; provided,
that the provisions of this act shall not be
so construed as to allow the payment and
satisfaction of debts created by bonds is
sued by the State, and upon which
the Stateis secondarily liable, nor to the
payment of the sinking fund, now required
by law of the railroad companies of this
State. OF course, the act refers to ssch
State bonds only in the aid of railroads con-
structed, under the provisions of the Cen
eral improvement act. What amount Of
this class of bonds that have been paid into
the Treasury is not known at present.

The Chicago Tribune of the 18th inst. says:
The dealers in grain made numerous settle
ments, principally upon the basis established by
the committee appointed for that purpose. The
scale of prices was published in issue of this
morning, viz Wheat, seller the month"; Sf.1Sx;
do last half, S1.194; do seller November, Sf.20;
do seller the year, S11S%. Corn, seller the
month, 46xc; do seller last half, 46zc; do seller
November, 46c; do seller the year, Ike. Oats,
seller the month soc; do seller last half, 30Ac;
do seller November, Bic. Rye, Csc. Barley,
58Hc; do seller last half, SOC. .. 81
II was estimated that fully twO-thirds OF the
options outstanding In grain were settled to-day,
and great many checks given in payment. OF
course many Of the differences were left unpaid,
and many others were closed out by transfer of
liabilities, this leaving the outstanding differ
ences between very few parties and giving but
little for the committee to do in equalizing
claims. Two or three operators were buying
grain to ship the general tendency being to easier
prices, as several of the grain-hOders wanted TO
realize, so as to be able to use the money in pre-
pairing to do business in the future. On the con-
trary, options for future delivery were generally
firmer, several large orders being sent here to
buy for outside parties, who anticipate reae-
ton from the recent dullness.
The grain movement is looking up. The sub
Joined statement shows that the amount of grain
sent out Yesterday is not a bad average quantity
for each day of the entire year
The following grain has been inspected into
store up to 10 O'clock this morning: 247 cars of
what: 10 cars corn, IL 100 bushels No. 2 do; 80
cars oats; 7, 900 bushels No. 2 do; cars rye; IS
cars barleS. Total CAD cars 1871 900 bushels. OF
this amount the Illinois Central brought in iO1
cars wheat; SO cars corn, and - cars barley.
The shipments were: 49, bushels No. spring;
81 ,243 bushels No. 2 spring; 341 bushels No.
spring; 337 bushels rejected spring; 366 bushels
No 8 red winter; zoos bushels No red winter;
157 y344 bushels corn; 2,9E bushels rejected do;
40 ,373 bushels No. oats; 6S1 bushels rejected

THE COURTS.

CIRCUIT CoURT.-This is the last motion
day of the present expiring term.
LAW CoURT.-The jury trying the suit
of Henry Pullman VS.. John j. COrby re-
ported that they were not able to agree upon
a verdict, and miStrial was entered. The
jury in the case of S. S. Roberts VS.. j. j.
Robb and others, will be charged Monday
morning Trial is now pending in the suit
of Henry W. Compton VS.. G. W. Brown,
the testimony not yet being concluded.
CRIMINAL CoURT.-Attorney General
Coldwell finished his argument as to the
plea of Patrick Moore, indicted for murder,
that he cannot a second time be placed on
his trial for that crime. The speech of the
Attorney General on this occasion, where
he had to measure lances with three of the
ablest lawyers in the State-Bate, Guild,
and Quarles-showed that in eloquence, in
genuity and knowledge of the law, he was
foeman worthy the steel brought against
him. The concluding argument in behalf
of the defendant was made by Gen. Bate,
and no words of commentator that We
could employ would convey a correct
impression of the able and impressive
effort made by him on this occasion.
For learning, eloquence and impressive ap-
peal In behalf of his client, the speech of
Gen. Bate was all, if not more, than might
have been expected Of that distinguished
advocate. The jury received the charge of
the court, but have not yet agreed upon
their verdict. Albert West, indicted for
horse stealing, and who was brought here
from Columbia, in answer TO capias, was
placed upon his trial, which will probably be
concluded to-day. B

Unfortunate Occurrences at the
CTHrksyfIlo Fair,

A gentleman who has been attending the
Montgomery County Fair at GAINESVILLE, in
forms US that W. T. Turnkey, Esq, of that
city, had his leg badly injured by the kick
of his horse, ON the Fair Grounds, Wednes-
day, and that a gentleman by the name
of Street, from New Providence, just bejond
GAINESVILLE, was fatally wounded by James I.
Moore, butcher of the latter place. 1t
seems that Street had bar in one of the
booths under the amphitheatre and while
standing behind the counter was approach
ed by Moore, who, being drunk at the time,
said an be id if there don't be some
shooting here, "and thereupon drew pistol
and fired at Street, who at last ac-
counts was not expected to live. After
shooting Street, Moore tried to escape, but
was too drunk to get away, was arrested by
j. W. Cooksey, the county jailer. 1t is not
known positively though reported that the
parties had not had any previous difficulty.

The Theater Last Night.

The audience in attendance at the theater
last night was only medium, yet this did
not dampen the spirit of Grey's troupe,
whose efforts were as successful and salts
factory, and perhaps even more so, as upon
any previous evening. Each night but adds
new lustre to their diadem of dramatic
merit and gives an additional stamina to
the efforts of the various actors, sew
eral of whom are rising gracefully,
brilliantly, and grandly to the zen
iths of dramatic reputation. Our own
observations, close and critical, have led us
to the conclusion that Nashville will have no
cause to regret the encouragement bestowed
upon Grey's company, who certainly de-
serve liberal attendance every evening
during the present season, already
pleasantly introduced, and which, we
sincerely trust, is to be as attract
lively consummated by the presentation
of heavy tragedies and merriest of come
dies. No efforts have been spared by Mr..
Turk and others of this company to render
the theatre not only comfortable, by an
artistic renovation of its interior, but also
inviting to the lovers of Thespis whose
shrine will here be garlanded with richest
trophies of talent and experience in the
profession.

The Rnarfa Homicide.

We have already mentioned the difficulty
that occurred in Sparta, on Monday last,
between Mr.. JEFF. Leftwitch and Richard
Willhite. When they first met the former
drew his pistol and the latter knife. AT this
point friends interpOscd and separated
them. They met again however in short
while, and were again separated, and the
parties and their friends started of, and
when Willhite had gone ten or fifteen yards,
he turned and ran up to Mr.. Leftwitch,
stabbing him four times, the wounds being
in the heart, left hip to the cavity, IN the
wrist and near the breast bone; Dir. Left
witch fell and died in two minutes, sur
rounded by a number of gentlemen,
among them several physicians. Mr..
Willhite was arrested and is now in Jail on
an Indictment for murder, found by the
jury the day after the preparation of the
deed which has cast gloom of sorrow over
the entire community. Mr.. Ieftwitch left
a wife and two children, and was highly es-
teemed by the citizens of Sparta and White
county, many of whom attended his fune-
raj, conducted by the Masons, last Tues
day, E
