IMPORTANT GASES BEFORE THE DIS
TRICT COURT FOR THE WESTERN DIS
TRICT OF VIRGINIA.--Two important
cases were before this court at the present
term in Lynchburg, one of which was de-
cided, and the other held under advsement
by the court up TO the time of the present
writing. The case decided was OH an in
formation in the nature of q quo qca77ito,
preferred by the District Attorney against
j. G. Kasey, the acting sheriff OF Bedford
county. The information alleged that
Kasey was disqualified to hold tl,e office
upon the ground that he held the office OF
constable and commissioner of the revenue
before the war, and afterwards engaged in
the rebellion.
This case was fully argued by j. Footc
johnson and others, for kasey, and by
Hon. r. w. Hughes, for the government.
The judge held that by holding the offices
above mentioned and afterwards engaging
in rebellion, made him obnoxious to the
provisions Of the fourteenth amendment,
and entered an order of custer, and Eor
Kasey to show cause why he should pot
enter into bonds to keep the peace and de-
sist from further attempting to exercise the
duties of sheriff of Bedford county.
The opinion of his Honor was clear
and able exposition of the law on the vari-
our points raised by counsel, and we hope
10 be able to lay it befnre ON, readers.
The second case was that of Thorpe II.
Nance, bankrupt, the particulars Of
which have been heretofore published in
our paper.
Nance has been made football Of by
the action Of Wingfield, the judge of a
State court, upon the application Of the
banzrupt's creditors, and he has been per-
secuted and harrassed by an effort to divide
or impair the jurisdiction OF the United
States court, which alone should control
the whole matter.
The question of jurisdiction was fully
and ably argued before the court on Thurs
day by Judge Morton, of this city, ant
Major Willard, of Lynchburg, for Nance
and Major Thurman, Of Bedford, for tht
creditors, and the decision of the court re-
served. We shall have more to say OF
this case after the decision of the court is
known.

LET JUSTICE BE DONE.--The difficulty
which occurred at the burning of Flour
noy's sash and blind factory, between the
Hand-in-Hand and the captain of Company
C, has resulted in the dismissal of four
members of the Hand-n-TIand fire COM
pany, consisting of the following named
gentlemen: Robert ScammelI, Charles
Clinely, Dennis Brophy, and Michael H..
Mccarthy.
We regret the action of those in COM
mand, because these four firemen are coll
ceded to be among the most active and en-
ergetic members of Company A.
The Hand-in-Hand company need no
eulogy from us, as their energy, activity
and promptness, when fires occur, give ev-
idenoa of their usefulness and ability.
These gentlemen complain that they have
been dismissed the service without warning
or trial, and without even giving them an
opportunity of making any defense. In
fact, they are entirely ignorant of the cause
of their dismissal.
We appeal to the chief of our fire depart
mcnt, If he controls the matter, to do JUS
tice by these gentlemen, and whatever the
cause Of offence, let them know it and be
given fair and impartial hearing a

THE HEBREW New YEAR.-At sunset
yesterday evening the Hebrew year 563l
expired and the new year 5632 began.
We copy the following interesting historical
particulars from the Baltimore Sun Of yes
terday:
The new years day of the Hebrews is the first
day of the sixth month, Tisri, and is called the
beginning of the sacred year, which dates the
creation OF the world, according to the biblical
acconnts and is distinguished from the civil year,
which begins on the first Hebrew month, Nissan,
which dates from the formation of the Hebrews
as a nation. Upon the New Year (Rost Hash
Haddin) the RAINS horn is blown, which is tC
remind the 1sraelite of The relation in which he
stands to his Maker IL Is observed with great
solelnnity, The reformed party among the He
brews observing it but one day. while the ortho
doy eetebrate in two days.
y The ceremony of blowing the horn is l,aseG
u Don Leviticns, 23d chapter, 24th verse: "Speal
unto the children of Israeli saying, in the seventh
month, shall ye have a sabbath, a memorial o
blowing OF trumpets, an holy convocaiioD." The
week proceeding the new year is II week of peni
tence, designed as q preparation for the New
Year and Day of Atonement, which takes place
on the tenth day OF Tisri, or the Goth day of Sep
tember in this year. This is the most soleint
day for the Isrfalites, and is devoted by then
from sunset to sunset the next day TO prayer ant
fasting The synagogues on this occasion an
OyercrOWded. The observance OF that day Il
based upon Lev, sd chapter, 10Th verse: 'Als'
the tenth tlay OF the seventh month there sinai
be a day of atonement; ii shall be a holy convo
cation unto you, and ye shall aiflict your soul
and do no seIyile work therein"

A NOBLE USE OF TALENT.-General
George Il. Pickett, who, although on the
wrong side, has, IN his conduct since the
war, displayed the modesty and intelligence
of General Lee, by remaining silent upon
the various political affairs which have di-
vided the sections, "a sure evidence that he
was good fighter and brave man, is
again initiating his commander, by pursuing
business for the support Of himself and
family.
He offers his services to the people of
Virginia as general agent of the WASH
ington Life Insurance company of New
York, and as an evidence that he means
business and does not wish to confno it to
partisan surroundings, advertises his COM
pany and its business in the JOURNAL.
His conduct, to which we refer above,
entities him to the confidence Of the public,
and we are sure gentleman Of his ability
would not connect himself with an organi-
cation that was unsound. We cheeriully
recommend the company and General
Pickett as their agent to our friends.

ONE MORE ANXIOUS INoulREn The


ONE MORE ANXIOUS INQuIRER-1he
Norfolk Vrginieos IN Igaorance.-W did
think if there was a paper III Virginia true
to the colors of Democracy, and that would
follow blindly its dictates, that one was The
Norfolk Vagn,ian. In fact, it has seemed
to out Herod-Herod ITSELF and until the
admission of Abe Hall as member OF the
late convention of its party, was constant
Nv clamoring for "White Mans Party"
Wcsbegin to doubt its orthodoxy, when we
find it giving expression TO such sentiments
as are contained in the following, which ap-
peared in its issue Of the 18th, under the
head of "Virginin News"
The Democrats throughout the State, in their
county meetings are resolufng to endorse the
platform adopted by the convention recently
held in Richmond. Which platform
The Norfolk Day Book, our very es-
teemed Republican cotemporary, must look
out, else the Hugisnan will soon be com
peting with it for Republican iavors.
The Vrgi,ian may console itself will
the reflection that it is not the only anxious
inquirer after the platform which was
adopted by the late huinbug which met a
Assembly Hall. Il. 4. Daniel, Esq, OF
John Cooley, of this city, are competent tt
furnish the much desired information de
lnanded by the pirginaan.

ANSWERED.. few days ago the
Washington CM0nicle asked to know if
it was possible the whipping-post had been
reGrected III Virginia. IL is answered thus
by the National Vuginioua..
Is this so We most emphatically answer
yes; and we cannot but express our utter sur
prise THAT the Chr0nicte at this late day asks
the question. Has it just found out that the
whipping-post is an established institution in
Virginia, and has been ever since the Walker adj
ministration? Does it not know that colored
men are led to the whipping-post in almost every
county in Virginia, where usually mine and
thirty are numerically dealt out to them OH
their bare back upcn the slightest preteXt, by
the order of our Democratic county judges.
In our neighboring county of Chesterfield no
less than q half dozen men have been put to the
lash by order of Judge Cox, within very few
months, and probably not a county in the State
bat that has its whipping-post in operation. As
damaging this fact is to every sense of human
ity and right, nevertheless tits true. But what
can he expected from Democratic rule Can it
be that tise Chronicle has just woke up to reali-
zation Of THIS fact7
Wr spads kot only is the statement OF
the V5yi1,ia1 correct, but that in One of
the counties in the State Minister of the
Gospel ~ holds the position of Judge, by
Democratic appointment, who specially de-
lights in eonsigning to the tortures of the
whpping-post coiored men who are found
guilty of petty Offences.
