Suit to Recover Forfeited Railroad Bonds.
In the suit Instituted in the name of the
State by J. @. a. Fellows, Attorney General
ad interim, to recover certain bonds issued
by the State Of louisiana to the New Or
leans. Mobile and Chattanooga Railroad
Company, some doubt having been ex-
pressed. an examination of act No. u #
1872, section one, which expressly author
ICES the Governor or Attorney General to
designate an attorney at law to take charge
Of any case where a ministerial officer OF
the State was interested. in his official capao-
ity. will etfectually remove it, Mr.. Eel
lows holds the official appointment OF the
Governor, and was authorized to bring this
suit by the Attorney General June Ii. 1873.
1t u instituted to recover $4,000 OF the
bonds donated to the company on the condi-
tons imposed by section seven of act No.
81 OF 1870. The company received the
bonds on filing within ninety days, from
February 81, 1870. the evidence of it. ac-
ceptance of the provisions Of the ac. and its
agreement to perform the acts and condi-
tons contained ia it. The first condition
was that the portion Of the road from New
Orleans to the Sabine river should be COM
pleted in three years from the fling of the
agreement. These three year. expired May
q, 1873.
The act provides that the company, fail
ing to complete its road in the specified
time, shall be bound to return to the Treas
urer Of the State all bonds which shall have
been issued to them under the authority of
the act.
They didn't complete the road. they
didn'. return the bonds, and after sufi
cient time was given to them to fulfil their
agreement they were sued. The company
is not sued for forfeiture Of its franchise.
As for the act OF the Legislature extend
ing the time of the contract, as it has not
been signed, it falls into the category of
bills not meeting the approval OF the Gov
ernor. And as he authorizes the suit, it is
evident he doesn't intend to approve it.
The amendment limiting the State debt
to $25.O0O.OOo prevents the Legislature
from waiying OF creating any debt. The
law demands the return of the bonds. and
though the attorney for the road inay de-
sire to evade it, and try to create public
sentiment against its enforcement. it is not
likely he will succeed.

COURT RECORD.
TUESDAY, JULY %. 1873.
Superior District Court.

City OF New Orleans VS.. p. Irwin.-peti-
ton sets forth the passage of an ordinance
for the widening of Poland street. That
defendant opposes the taking of his prop
erty for that purpose. Prayer for decree
OF appropriation or payment OF properly
estimated value of the property.
1. B. Patton ys. James Smith. Rule to
| dissolve the Injunction. Judge Hawkins,
in discharging the rule, said the city of New
Orleans is subordinate to the control OF the
Legislature. By late act 1873, the State
has taken from the city the control OF the
criminal courts, which power is granted by
the State to the police judges. The city is
merely part of the State government. The
Mayor and the Council have no vested
rights, and it may be that the next Legisla-
ture will sweep away all these Offices. The
sheriff. however. can only be removed by a
constitutional convention.
TIE criminal sheriff claims to be the
proper executive officer of ali prisoners i'm
prisOned by competent authority. Mr.
Smith; the warden OF the city police Jail,
has no such right. By the constitution
Mr.. Patton has the right to all criminals.
Mr. Smith is not sanctioned by arv law at
all; he is mere creature OK the city gov
ernment.
II the city, however, establishes a work
house, as it is authorized to do by law, the
control OF this wOrkhouse and the prisoners
there does not come under the control of
the sheriff. But such wOrkhouse must be
used for vagrants, the sick and the young,
as sort of moral hospital and no prison
ers can be sent there tor the violation Of
anv punative law.
The injunction therefore issued prohibit
ing the cOmmittal OF prisoners, to the city
Jail can not ba dissolved on the ground
mentioned, and this court reiterate. thar
Sheriff Patton is entitled to the costody Of
all persons committed for violations Of the
statutes of the State. and the city Or
dinances passed in conformity with these
statutes.

Our season SO far has been u very
good one. The corn, though planted late, is
doing well. Oats and grass are growing
rapidly. Wheat looks badly, as SO much
was killed by the severe winter.
The great distinctive feature ofthis country
is its adaptability to all the finest grasses.
such as clover, orchard, timothy, evergreen,
rcd-top and the hghIy-prized blue grass.
Not only do these furnish the finest pastures,
but they are also highly ornamental. and GER
tainly this part OF Virginia cannot be sur
passed by any other in its natural scenery
and natural beauty of landscape.
Southwestern Virginia is finely timbered,
and only needs enterprise to make it place
from which could be obtained the finest ma
terial for the furniture trade. Poplar, maple,
oak, and walnut, all abound, and of the finest
quality. Richmond ought to be furnished in
this line from our own State, if men Of ell
ergy would take the matter in hand. We
have in ourselves what makes Il people
great, and only need proper spirit to de-
lelop it.
There is nothing of interest in the politi-
cal or moral field to excite attention. We
