Administration BIunders.

The New York Nation says Of Pennsyl.
vania politics:
The administration managers in Pennsyl-
yania certainly seem to have been smitten
with blindness, and to have offered the de-
cency of the State so fiat and insulting de-
fance as will make it absolutely impossible
for Pennsylvania to be carried by the adj
ministration Republicans either IN October
or November, unless there is great "break-
ing of States" and, indeed, in our belief,
the State can nohow be carried for the Re-
publlcans. We can not conceive what they
have been thinking of, but it seems as if it
must be true that the State ticket was die
lated from Washington, where people do
not know the rapidity with which public
sentiment outside has changed within the
last month, or else as if it must be true that
pennsylvania is helplessly bound, hand and
foot, by railroad rings that are more nearly
onnlpotent than the country has ever yet
believed. The State ticket Is on all hands
denounced as one not fit to be made.
and many Republican organs are urging
the people to repudiate the action Of
the convention and elect their own dele
gates to the Philadelphia convention. We
have advices pointing to the gubernatorial
nomination of Mcclure as Liberal Repub-
lican; but nothing seems very definite, and
it is difficult to believe in a Democratic
breakup III inc lace VI Hou1Oat1OnS ike
those Of Hartranft and Allen. while the
Democracy have men like Cass and Bueka-
lew to nominate, and Liberal Republicans
like Hickman and Lowery, and the Re-
formers in Philadelphia stand ready to
destroy the Hartranft and Cameron Repub-.
hcans as years ago they abandoned the De-
mocracy. Hardly anywhere else in the
Union Is there livelier picture of the trans
ition state of politics than Pennsylvania
presents. The Republican party there, dis
eased, confused, without policy, wretch
edly corrupt, the prey of rings and political
A party approaches it's end when men such
as Mcclure and Forney can figure in it as
reformers we only hope that the finishing
stroke may be given it by men who will
head an assault in which the McClures and
Fentons and Curtins are to be found in the
rear, and taking instead of giving orders.

opened, his father was wholly unauthorized
to make the compromise in 1865, whereby
the original notes were surrendered to
Wives; that said compromise was entered
into for the purpose of defrauding the
creditors and heirs of their rights, resulting
from the community hitherto existing,
James b. Vins0u and his deceased wife,
and that the fact that the said Vinson was
acting without authority was well known
to the defendant, Wives, who knew of the
death OF Mrs. Vinson prior to the agree
ment and the passage Of the act before the
notary.
The Supreme Court reached the following
conclusions: We do not see how Wives com.
mitted q fraud in entering into the COM
promise in December. 1865. By it he paid
ana agreed to pay $4,000 for property
vendor, and which, it is shown. was worth
only $4,000 at that time We think Wives
had the right to pay the notes or make any
bona tide settlement he could with the
holder and payee. The maker of negotiable
paper should be protected in the settlement
he has made with the holder in good faith,
IN whom the legal title appears to be vested
The defendant had the right to remit the
whole OF his claim. subject to any attack
his creditors might institute in their name
tor fraud within the period prescribed By
law. The amount abated was less than
the amount due him individually. (See

order of the court, lof defendants domicile.
The defendant, ruled the Supreme Court,
should be sued at the place OF his domicile
&c. Pr The lower court was without juris-
diction to grant any order binding on the
defendant, because his domicile was in the
parish of St. James. The attachment, being
merely q conservatory remedy, should have
