We noted, some weeks since, the ex- change of farm ill Harwinton by the Hon. Lewis Catlin, for property in Mas sachusetts. Some of the papers have in- ferred that he was about to remove to that State. We are pleased to learn that such is not the case.

 We clipped an item from the Danbury News some weeks since, which stated that the aaolte in the cases of Judd and Conklin, defau1ting cashiers prosecuted in the U. s.

 These instances of business success have not been the result of ssluck," but of en- ergy, perseverance and sound judgment.
 The defeat of Gould & Fisk in one of the suits brought against them for Iabili- ties growing out of their transactions in the gold panic, on Black Friday, is an important indication that their control of the New York Judiciary is at an end. The case is test one, and if it is followed up will make Fisk & Gould responsible for the loss of millions which they have en- deavored to throw off upon irresponsible parties. They tried to bribe the jury but were unsuccessful. When the New York legislature meets the ruin of the Erie ring will no doubt be completed.
