Important Legal Decision.

RICHMOND, October 81.
In the United States Circuit Court
to-day, in the cases of George W.
Delivers and others, bankrupts. Judge
II. Z Bond rendered a most important
decision. The creditors having doc6>
eted judgement obtained DEGREES in
the State court directing the sale of
Delivers property. Afterward Delivers
fled petitions in bankruptcy and
claimed the Homestead exemption
was allowed in the United States
District Court by Judge Underwood.
The creditors then carried the case
before Judge Bond by petition aud he
decided the following points, which
entirely reverse the ruling of Judge
Underwood:
First, When suits are pending in
State courts before the commences
ment of bankrupt proceedings, if there
he no suggestions Of fraud and no
interests of the general creditors will
be prejudiced. the bankrupt court
ought not to interfere with the juris
diciion of the State court.
Second. When the bankrupt has
made a deed of trust to secure credi-
tors, he is not entitled to any exemp
tion out of the property conveyed
until the deed is satisfied, even all
though, the deed be adjudged fraudu-
lent as to creditors by the State
court.
Third. When the proceedings in
bankruptcy were commenced before
the passing of the amendatory act of
March 3D. 1873, the bankrupt is
entitled to such exemption only as al
lowed by the laws exciting at the
time the proceedings commenced.
Fourth, The amendatory act, so far
as it is declaratOIy of the inten,ion of
the act of 1867, is VOID.
Fifth, The righ's of the bankrupt
and creditors are fitted according to
the laws IN force when the bankruptcy
proceedings commenced, and no
lesislatiOn can eff ct them.

Let thine arm, oh Queen support me,
Hush thy sobs and bow thine ear
Listen to the great heart secrets

Dare assam my lame AT hOhler

That her blood, with mine cOmmlngled,

And from thee, star eyed Egyptian,
Glorious sOrceress OF the Ane.

Il Am Dying, Egypt, Dying
From the Richmond Enquirer, }

The letter of our Louisville cores
pondent written on board the steamer
General Lytle, will be found of more
than ordinary interest. The name of
TINS steamer recalls one of the most
Ghlvalric and pleasing incidents of the
late war. Ii was in one of the battles
ot The West-which Of them our MEM
2ry does not supply-that General
robert II. Lytle, a member of the
Clnclnnatti press, who had risen not
only from printer 10 editor, but from
private TO General, was killed far in
advance OF his command while gallan-
Sly leading an assault upon our lines.
ms horse bore his corpse into our
!iaes, and the steed and his dead rider
We're both captured. So soon as il was
KnowL that the author of that rare
poem, as familiar and as greatly ad-
iI1ired South, as North, ''I am Diving
Egypt, Dying" lay dead in the can1p,
orncers and men crowded around TO
tske last look at the face Of the poet
ff,n'ldier who had achieved so great a
literary triumph. There was no re-
-S'elng over the death of this fallen
nrhy but there was in truth some

tention. and here again we were aston
ished at the immense size OF the ami
mails. They were in reality, such as
we read of, but do not often see.
The display of machinery did not
seem to be so extensive as | have seen
! it, but there were a number Ofnew and
Interesting articles on hand.
The department for vegetables and
fruits, was not so well fitted as it has
been. In the Art Gallery, there were
number of new and very pretty
paintings and drawings. but the col
lection was smaller than the one last
year.
| scarcely know what to say of the
Ladies department. 1t was well filled
with all sorts of pretty things, but l
would not pretend to judge of the mer-
its of the various articles-the eatables
excepted, which were tantaliZing to
behold. These certainly looked delic-
ious, and as the hungry spectator
viewed the forbidden good-things, he
could not even comfort himself with
the FOX's conclusion in the fable. One
beautiful cake made by little girl Of
twelve years old. deserves especial no
notice. Is not this more than some
others twice that age, (if any such
there BEL could have done. The embroi-
derry, crocheting, fancy / 10 ure frames
&c. &C., were all very pretty, ana
most of them displayed wonderful
ingenuity. The wax work was par
ticularly tasteful. A wreath made ap-
parently of bits of pasteboard, and
covered with seeds glued on, was also
much admired. One flower was thus
made with melon seed, another with
corn, another with rice, and so on, the
whole being afterwards lightly var
nished. There was large and very
handsome picture worked with worst
ed, exhibited 10y a little girl of twelve.
There were pretty quilts and mats
and rugs, &C., in mum bers besides.
But have taken up too much of
your space already 1 fear, and will
close. hope ere long, Mr. Editor, you
will have an Agricultural Fair in
Bristol, and give the enterprising peo-
pie on both sides of the border, an OPP
pOrtunitiy of displaying the fruits of
their industry and ingenuity. There |
is no reason why there should not be |
an Agricultural Fair in the Border |
City, as extensive and attractive as the |
one held annually here. and hope the |
people of South West Va, and East |
Tenn, will not be behind the times |
in this important move.
Yours truly,
"RACso."

thing on each soldiers cheek that for
the moment washed away the stains
of powder. Tenderly they took him
up, and when the battle was over an
escort of honor, appointed from among
the leading Confederate officers, bore
him back TO his own camp, under a
flag of truce, on a rudely constructed
funeral bier, with his martial cloak
around him. In life he had touched
that chord of human sympathy which
makes all the world kin--and in death
its harmonious vibrations silenced all
resentment and thrilled the hearts
alike of friends and foes with a nobler
passion than hatred or revenge.
In connection with the above inter-
esting sketch, we republish as follows
the beautiful verses alluded to above.

VICTORY.

We have won in Virginia, in
MARYLAND, in New York, in Illinois,
in Kansas, and in Wisconsin. Our
gains have been large. In Mississ-
ippi the republicans divided on Al
corn and Ames, and Ames seem
to have won by a handsome ma
jority.
In Virginia we have absolutely
crushed republicanism, which will
now merely attempt to take adj
vantage of our own disscnsiOns and
divisions, and decide them in its
interest.
New questions will now arise in
Virginia and under the friction which
is likely to follow, it is very un-
certain what shall become of our
strength. Let not our party dream
that it has entered upon the road to
bliss. SIMPSONS greatest trials
commenced at time when ne was
strongest. 1t will be a long time
before we shall have another Stare,
or National election, in the means
time we shall have grave matters
on which to expend our strength
and test our wisdom. We will
show our adversaries that there
shall be peace in Virginia. Can
We also inaugurate q reign of pros
perity !
