lowing from the Register Of this morn
ing: The jury case Of James E. Wood
vs.. Yerington & Co., has occupied the
attention of the Second District Court
for the past two days, and Is still on
trial, to be resumed at 10 o'clock A. NJ.
to-day. Wood sues for, we believe,
5000 damages, alleged to have been
sustained by plaintiff by reason Of his
land having been encountered BY chips,
bark, gravel, ETC., deposited thereon
by water flowing through the wood
fiume Of defendants. The suit Is con-
sidered an important one, as others Of
. similar nature may be contingent
upon the result 800. The following
amounts In currency were yesterday
deposited with the State Treasurer by
the parties named, In part payment
for double minimum lands belonging
to the State, under the new law j. Fl.
Jewett deposited $50 tor l60 acres ;
Aaron Layton $l60 for 800 acres, and
Ephralm Pickett $50 for $50 acres.

State Treasury $l,2l2 90. on stamp &C
count. 49,. The Pioneer Blind Troupe
gave one Of their famous promenade
concerts at Empire last evening, which
was very fully attended. They will
give q similar one ut Moore & Parker's
Hall, In this city. After the concert
the blind people will furnish the most
excellent music for twelve dances, free
Of charge. The hall 10 pretty sure to
be crowded.
THOSE WELL GATEs.-At the meet
ing Of the Virginia Board Of Aldermen
held Tuesday evening, the Board In
structed the Chief of the Fire Depart
ment to procure we'll gates and hose
for the large tanks situated on the
upper side Of South B street. The
Enterprise says: "Once these gates
are procured and attached there will
be no trouble about getting water on
that part OF B street. The tanks are
located at a considerable height above
the street, and by the use OF the duck
hose which Is to be procured the water
can readily be led down to the en-
zines on the street." We do not eX-
actly see what advantage that "ducS
hose Is to be, or what need there IS
for leading the water down INTO any
engines. Why not attach the regular
hose Of the Department to the wei
gates and turn the water loose directly
upon the fire, same as we 90 IN Colo
Hill? Fix the we'll gates and then let
some of the hose companies try how
this idea would work.
