CIRCUIT Court. The greater part Of the past

with the case of John Bazer ct al VS.. Au gust
Volmer ct al. The case is dispute about the
possession of some property Of the German Ev
Lutheran Reformed Church of Peru, a commu-
nifty that seem TO have divided on doctrinal
points, and the evidence which consists largely of
the statements and claims Of the rival ministers,
and involves an intinity of minute and intricate
points of doctrine, has taken up vast deal Of
time, and yet neither the court or the attorneys
on either side seemed able TO get sufficient
comprehension of the case to be able to intcli.
gently argue or dispose of il. At all events after
the Witnesses had been heard, the case was laid
over for argument this morning to enable the
attorneys to umravel its theological intricacieS,
John Shovel was tried on q charge of burglary
and larceny. He had entered store in Sheridan
one night last January and stolen some clothing,
Afterwards he disclosed where the articles were
hidden, and search being made there, they were
found. John being very poor, and nobody being
willing to 90 his bail, has meantime been incar-
cerated in the county jail. His wife and four
helpless children were present in court to plead
for him-by their pitiful condition. The jury
probably thought John had suffered enough, and
acquitted him.
