Ill., Able y ciittenden as security. The
note was endorsed by Rea to Joseph F. Boss,
ana SUIT was brought by him against all the
parties TO the note. Defense was mterposed
by liiil and Abel upon two grounds LIST,
That the note was signed in the name of the
firm by crittenden without the knowledge
or consent of the other member Of the firm
and, I'd, That after the assignment Of the
note, Joseph z. Boss for q valuable consider
atioli--inade an agreement with Hill that the
note would not be enforced against them.
The trial occupied two days and . great
amount Of testimony was given with view
of proving and disploying the fact of knowl-
edge by the other members Of the firm, and
the subsequent agreement. The Court in
structed the jury as a matter of law, that one
member of a firm could not by signing the
firm name thereto, bind the firm as security
on a note without an assent Of all the men,
beers, or subsequent ratification by then, I;

John S. Emery VS.. George w. Bird. This
was an action to secure the amount due OH a
promissory note given by the defendant to
the plaintiff for $6o4S So, dated Auguat 1, 49,
II, payable one day after date, on which pay
ments to the amount Of S3358 were endorsed.
Emery and Bird were partners, doing business
at Glarksvillc. Emery furnished all the stock,
and the note was given by Bird to represent
one half of the capital. In 1872 the firm dis
solved, and it was alleged by the defendant
that in the negotiations for dissolution it was
agreed that he (the defendant, should trans
ferto the plaintiff the entire stock, books,
&c., and that therenpon the note sued OH
should be surrendered that he complied with
his part of the agreement and that therefore
the plaintiff should not be allowed to recover
on The note. The plaintiff coptended that NJ
such agreement was ever madet; that he hat
proposed one Of the kind, but it was rejected
by the defendant, and the dissolution wa.
made upon % different basis. The plaintiff al

ILLEGAL Rum SELIING.-The grand jury at
its late session indicted five persons in this
city for illegal rum selling. Some thirty cases,
we hear, were brought before them, but they
refused to indict where the parties had not
sold anything stronger than beer BY this
means some of the men who are the greatest
curse to this city escaped their Just deserts.
The excuse for not indicting beer sellers was
that they had no right to do so when the city
had an ordinance bearing upon it. We are
Informed that Judge Beasley said it was strict
ly legal for them to indict, but the grand jury
were wiser ~ in the law re presume, than
the Chief Justice
The only remedy under present circumstan-
ces that our citizens have is to prosecute these
men before a Justice of the Peace. We trust
it will be done.

pointed, the friends began to gather at the
Church on the morning of Aug Goth. Mcssrs.
Niece came with their sx-horse team, and
after the usual precautions were given by the
old and experienced, the procession moved off.
There were about twenty-five wagons, which
number increased to thirty by the time we
reached the Park.
The first thing after the arrival was the
dinner, which was soon spread on the tables
and all were invited to partake. To attempt
to give description of it would be impos-
sible, except to say that our mothers and SIS
tiers know how to get up a good dinner.
At 2 o'clock all were gathered together Tex

the pains they took in getting up our six

THE STREETs.-We have been shown SUBJ
scription paper that is to be circulated for
signatures, in which it is proposed to naead-
onasze that part of North Union street from
Bridge to Coryeil, upon the agreement OF the
property holders fronting on the same to pay
one-half the cost or one dollar per foot front,
as they may choose. This is in accordance
with resolution Of Council passed some time
sinee). The supposition is that the whole cost
will be in the neighborhood of from three to
four dollars per foot in length of street. as it
will require to be graded off to the depth of
twelve inches and then filed with good hard
broken stone from Goat Hill 81
Whether this would be the very best plan f 81
the improvement of our Streets may admit of
doubt, perhaps, but that it will make a good
road admits of none, and that something is
needed to be done every little rain fall we have
furnishes ample testimony. Now, to improve
our streets is no light consideration, and their
condition now particularly Union street, is
not only a Disgrace but serious damage to
the prosperity of our city. Our city authori-
ties, even if they had the disposition, do not
and if they had, there would most likely be
dissatisfaction about where to commence but
on this plan of the property holders paying
one-half the cost whenever Council does the
hope it may go'on. a IBYEGSE3q
