jolly good and rollicking time of it.
They give glowing descriptions of the

long exposure among the "mcnntain

The MANDAMUs CASES. Yesterday
was the day fixed for the meeting of
the Supreme Court, but only the Chief
justice was present, vino appointed the
18th instant when it should convene.
Had the court had q quorum, it was
the intention OF the attorneys, or some
OF them, in the mandamus cases, to
move for rule against the Treasurer,
to show cause Why he should not be
attached for contempt Of court, in not
obeying the naandamus. The Treasu.
rer has taken the cases to the Supreme
Court Of the United States, and given
his bond for $500 in each, to cover the
amount OF costs, which bond has been
approved and the bonds are on file in
this court. The ground will be taken
by counsel. that he should have given
bond for the whole amount of the
judgment. pending the decision of the
United States Court. What the effect
or benefit of this would be, we cannot
precisely determine. We suppose the
line of action which it was intended to
take yesterday, will be taken when the
court resumes its session.
