Magistrates Court.


a very interesting case was tried
before Esq. Alexander on Tuesday
last, and one that recalls many
pleasant and unpleasant reminis-
censes. Two suits, alike in all i'm
portant particulars, were tried at
once. Jas. Mclean and E. j. Mol
" sued AIessrs. Frank Wilkerson
and J. b. Stacy for money due them
for services rendered in their en-
ploy as proprietors Of the Pulaski
Rifle Mandatory in 1861. It is
alleged by complainants that this
work was done for the defendants
as private individuals, they not pre-
Stunning to know what disposition
was made of the guns after they
were completed. On the other
hand the defendants plead that
they were manufacturing guns for
the Confederate Government, that
compliments knew this to be the
case and consequently became par
ties to an illegal proceeding, as
ruled by the Supreme Court, inter
dieting the payment of any such
accounts. They further plead the
statnte Of limitation, more than
six years having elapsed after the
services were performed before suit
was brought Noble Smithson.
Esq, appeared for the prosecution
and Mai. Amos r. Richardson for
the defense, and great ingenuity
was displayed by each in contro-
verting and bringing adverse law
to bear upon the points made on Ell
ther side. It did not appear in
proof but is generally known that
several of our welI-known citizens
were partners in this combination,
among whom, we believe, besides
the parties sued, are Col. James 7.
McKissack, Judge. Jack Walkers
Mr.. Jno. n. White, Maj. Green
Anderson, and several others, and
the accusation of the illegality of
the acts Of the combination is in
refuted by some upon /
the ground thatsome of the parties /
concerned are indisputably loyal to
the government of the United /
States, and being such would never /
e gage in anything disloyal or in /
aid ofrebelGon.
The case elected considerable in +
terest and was decided yesterday /
against the defendants.

took it into his head last Sun day,
while attending preaching at the
African church, that his pocket
book was rather plethoric, and that
he would serve the double purpose
of having a little fun and reducing
his assets by raising particular
thunder. His mouth was permitted
to give utterance to what his mad
dened brain saw proper to dictate,
and his kicks and GESTURES would
have done credit to a gymnast.
He ragged undisturbed until he
got tired. The scene now changes,

it is our purpose to enlarge the err

Our patronage viii amply Justify
the necessary expenditure to accom-
plish this purpose, If we can only
make collection. We cannot afford
to borrow the money when our pat
rons owe more than the amount re
quired, and we appeal to every man
who owes US a dollar to pay it with

whole Of what you owe, pay US half
of it, or even a fourth. Let no man
imagine that the small amount he
owes would not help us any. Our
entire income is made up of these
little dribs, and if one, and another,

would we ever make improvements,
or ever meet expenses? We want
