safely said, that any fact which clearly
proves it to be against conscience to exeh
cute judgment, and of which the in
jured party could not have availed him
self in court of law; or of which he
might have awaited himself at law, but
was prevented, by fraud or accident, I'M
mixed with any fault or negligence in
himself, win justify an application to a
Court of Chancery." In Adams Equity,
1877, it is said: "The rule on this SUBJ
ject seems to be, that if, after judgment,
additional circumstances are discovered,
if their non discovery has been caused by
fraudulent c0ncealmcnt, the fraud will
warrant an Injunction"
But wedeem it unnecessary to pursue the
investigation further as to the iurisdic-
ton of the Chancery Court. The defend
ants have failed to demur or plead or to
move TO dismiss the bill, but have an
swered and taken issue upon the merits /
The cause must therefore be heard and
on its merits. Code, 81, 321.
As we are satisfied that complainant is
entitled to relief upon the grounds
already stated, we deem it unnecessary to
examine the question as to the effect

Co. in Confederate money by Shield.

An Important aud Useful Work.
The Revised Tennessee Statutes for
1871, with copiouS notes and references,
by Seymour d. Thompson, Esq, of the
Memphis bar, assisted by I, NJ. Steger, of
the Nashville bar, viii soon be ready for
delivery. The authors Rave brought to the
work fine legal discriminating minds and
vast and careful preparation. All the mat
ter has been carefully and studiously pre-
pared, including the insertion of the acts
OF 1901. Over 400 pages are already in
type, and the balance as fast as
is consistent With absolute accuracy. The
first volume will be ready in April, and the
second volume early in June Volume
first will be delivered to sub ciibers ss soon
Es bound without waiting for the second
volume, IN ess otherwise ordered. The
sections will be arranged and numbered as
in the Code of 1858, so that all decisions
referring to that edition will refer to the
same matter IN this, AMI new sections will
Ice placed in their proper positions be-
tween the old ones and designated by an
added letter. In this manner all acts
passed subsequent TO the Code Of 1855.
will be embodied in the present compila-
ton in their proper analytical positions and
in the language of the Legislature.
Repealed and modified sections
will, also, be designated by their
number, and will be followed by the re-
pealing or modifying act in full, and at the
bottom of each original and added section
will be placed the date of the original act
of assembly from which it is compiled.
The work will contain side-notes to facili-
tate reference, as in the Code of 1858, and
notes of judicial decisions of our own
State and the Federal Courts, wherever
any statute has been ruled upon or con-
strued. These notes Will be copious to an
extent not hitherto undertaken in work
Of this kind for Tennessee. 1t will con-
tam the Constitution of the United S tates,
with the recent amendments, fully ammo
tated with notes of Federal and Tennessee
State decisions, and also the new OOnsti-
ton of Tennessee, with notes showing the
changes 1t has introduced upon the old,
with references to decisions made upon
those sections of the old Constitution
which remain uualtered in this. 1t will
embrace a com 2ilatioR of the unrepealed
Laws of the Safe O uItted IN the previous
Code, an Appendix, embodying a compi-
lation OF the most IPprOvedlegal and bust
LESS forms, an elaborate aud carefully ar
ranged index, etc, aud will embOdy the
most recent acts o. the Legislature down
to the period Of going % press.
The work wiz be an invaluable one to
the courts and the legal fraternity, as

L. Green, Weep President of the Associa-
ton, in the Chair. w. R. Pope, Secre-

At its previous meeting, two delegates

organizing, 10 connection with the Asso-
citation or otherwise, q Farmers Club.
On motion, the delegation was increased
to three from each civil district. The
Association then resolved itself into
temporary club, until q permanent or
galIization could be effected. "A commit
tee, consisting of G. w. Walker, James
Brakefleld, and 7. E. Morris, was APP
pointed to select subject for discussion
