L1AIrLrTY OF BANK DmEcroRs-I

LIAinrTY OF BANK DRKcoRs-A
case Of some Importance: as showing
the responsibility Of bank directors, has
been decided at New York. The follow.
ing are the points: The suit was brought
against the directors Of q bank in Brook.
Ign which had failed to return $4,000
deposited by firm who made the deposit
in full faith in the solvency Of the bank.
The directors were charged with having
declared and paid dividend when they
knew the bank was in q perilous condi.
ton. A demurrer was put in to this com.
plant The court oyerruled 1t and deci.
ded that the defendants were liable, and
that the directors Of the bank, In declar.
ing and paying a dividend, in express
terms asserted the solyency Of the insti.
tuition. 1t is q wholesome principle Of
law that mo one shall be at liberty to
SOW falsehood broadcast without being
made responsible for the loss 1t causes"
The decision Is an important one. 81

CANE PREsENTATIoN.-Avery pleasant
affair took place at the Arcade Saloon, on
South street, yesterday. We refer to the
cane presentation which had quietly been
arranged Tor by the friends Of Joseph
Simmons, formerly of this city. Mr.. s. Is
mailer, and is well known in the mills
herei also in Benwood, Pomeroy and
Clifton. His friends in the places named
had contributed sum sufficient to pur.
chase a magnificent gold-headed cane
and the formal presentation came of as
stated above. Charles W. seabright was
deputed to make the address, which he
did with credit to himself, and although
the affair was a complete surprise to Mr.
Simmons, he was equal to the emergency
and made fitting response.
The cane is aheavy ebony stick, with q
massive and deliberately chased head, and
was purchased at the establishment Of
Messrs. Hennegen 6 Co., Main street, this
city. The engraving was executed by
Mr.. Bates, of the firm, and was in the
highest style Of the art.

the fact, that the hole washed out of Jet.

Of all kinds Of filth to the great annoy.
ance of the oliactories of those living in
the neighborhood. While 1t Is true that
immediate measures should be adopted to
fill up the great chasm referred to, still
proper regard should be had to the char.
acter of the material used Tor the purpose,
and we respectfully call the attention oil

Officer, or both, to the matter com.

POLICE CoURT.-There was large at.
tendance at yesterday mornings session
of the police court. We noticed an rlnu.
sual and commendable feature in connec.
ton with the proceedings, and that was,
the ejectment Of a crowd of small boys
from the court room, who had doubtless
come there to hear and take their first
lessons in obscenity and profanity. We
hope the officers will continue to pursue
this policy towards the little fellows who
have no business in the court. The fol.
lowing cases were disposed Of: Ferdinand
Roll, disorderly, dismissed; George Blank.
ensop, same, same order; Ed. Freese, Jr.
same, same order; Themes Harkless
one dollar and costs; Benjamin McLaugh
lin, using loud and abusive language To-
wards a lady, ten dollars and cost
sent up for twenty days; Andrew
Brahler, drunk, one dollar and costs; j
T. Wilson, drunk, one dollar and costs.

CALL RRcENED AND ACQUITTED
Rev. D. II. Greer, son Of our esteemed
fellow-townsman, ]. r. Greer, Esq, has
received a call to the Rectorship of Grace
Episcopal Church, at Providence, Rhode
Island. He has accepted, and will enter
his now field OF labor at an early date.
1t will be remembered that this is the
church to which Rev,C. g. Curr'e, formerly
of st. Matthew's, in this city, was called
two or three years since. Its somewhat
singular that Rev. Mr., Greer should have
succeeded Mr.. Currle in the Rectorship
OF church in Covington, KY, and now
follows him in one up in New England.

HowAB THIs?-We were told last
evening, that the City Sergeant had given
orders to his deputies TO suspend opera.
lions in "impoundlng" hogs found run,
ming at large on the streets The reason
assigned was, that Council would preba.
bly, take some action at its meeting to.
night, looking to the repeal of the ordl.
nance, or making some change in its
provisions. The question with us is, has
the City Sergeant the authority to suspend
the enforcement Of an ordinance, or has
any other officer Of the city, until author.
