The New BANKRUPTCY LAVA st. Louis ex-
change says
We publish elsewhere an important decision
by Judge Dillon OF the United States Circus.
Court, IN which the retrospective operation OF
the amended bankrupt Law is considered In the
matters Of the bankruptcy Of +. q. Obear and
James 8. Thomas, of this city, adndcations Of
bankruptcy We're made prior TO the passage Of
the amendments and the cases we're pending for
settlement. Judge Treat, Of the District Court
held that the eifeot OF the amendments was to
require the petitionng creditors to amend their
petitions To make them conform to the re-
quiremcnte OF the law amended, before further
proceedings could b. had. Judge Dillon IT.
verses this deeision, and holds that the amend
ments requiring certain allegations in the cred
itor's petition, which were not necessary before
the amendments were passed, do not apply to
cases IN which adjudlcations of bankruptcy were
made prior 10 June ~, 1874 when said amend
ments went into force. 1t is due TO Judge Treat
to say that the orders were made by him merely
to test the effect OF the retrospective amend
ments, and to have the question decided at the
earl est practicable onelt. We have no doubt
that Judge billions decision will be generally ac-
quiesced in by the bar and the courts having
jurisdiction OF bankruptcy cases.

A RADICAL RACE.

The contest in the Second Congressional
District is growing decidedly exciting. Yes
tefday, Gaudet, (colored} a champion Of
Stamps, was elected President of the
Thirteenth Ward Radical club, aud
the Stamps men are accordingly elated. The
contest had been a very violent and disgrace
full one, and the police and employees Of the
Department Of improvements oxerted them
selves to the utmost in behalf of Stamps, whose
strength is confined to Jefferson The real
antagonists in this fight are Sheldon and DID
BILE, who are both permitting little Stamps to
wear himself out on the first mile, but will
distance him in the long run.
Whec Sheldon ard Dibble have given the
black horse the 60 by they will then turn their
attention to each other, and it rem ms to be
seen which has the most endurance or
strength. Sheldon has the advantage Of the
inside track but sagacious lockers on think
Dibble will lead under the string at the finish.

EDITOR HERALD; / was consider
ably surprised at Y the discourtesy
shown to myself and family by the

troupe availed themselves of the cour-
tesy extended to them by Mr.. Morse
and attended the concerts given on
those evenings by Miss Fannie Mars
ton. On Saturday evening was re-
quested by Mr.. Marshall to announce
from the stage the performance of the

same time an invitation was extended
to myself and family to see their per-
formance. This evening / presented

The New Postoffice Building.

Since work has been commenced on
the new Postofflce building to be
erected by Mr.. Temple adjoining the
HERALD office, many no doubt are
curious to know what kind of struct-
ure it will be. For the benefit of such
our reporter yesterday interviewed
Mr.. f. J. Weston, the architect, and
learned the following facts concerning
1t: The building will be 48xS0 feet,
two stroies andIbuilt of brick, succeed.
The lower story will contain two
store rooms 23x60 feet, the one on the
north being assigned to the Postoffice.
1t will be an open front, similar to the
present Postoffice and fitted up by the
Postmaster with boxes, apartments
and offices according to his taste in
the matter. The columns of the front
will be of the same style as those in
the HERALD building, the whole
facade being of the modern italian
style of architecture. 1t will be orna-
mental, having a heavy cornice and
entablature, with brackets, and a
Grecian pediment rising from the CEN
tire. The window-caps will be blocked
and succeed, corresponding in orna-
meHt with the other portions of
the front. From the windows
of the second story, a balcony will ex-
tend the whole length of the building
on the street. The upper story will be
fitted up expressly for a Grange Hall.
The entrance and stairway will be on
the southeastern corner of the build
ing leading from Spring street. From
the top EOf the stairs hall extends
to the rear, where an entrance-w way
four feet in width leads off to three
small roOms-a reception room 11Xl6
feet, ladies' retiring room 16xl7, and a
gentlemans' retiring room 12X17.
These rooms are lighted by windows in
the rear and will be fitted up with all
conveniences for the uses for which
they are designed. Two doors lead
from the entrance to the hall in front.
This will be 39x60 feet with 16 foot
ceiling, and arranged with platforms
along the sides and rostrums for otfi-
GERS. All the necessary conveniences
for lodge-room will be secured, and,
when completed, it will be the most
commodious and comfortable hall of
the kind in the city. The contract for
the brick-work has been let to Mr..
John Mayer and the carpenter-work
will be done under the supervision of
Mr.. Hargitt. 1t is the design of Mr..
Temple to have the building com
pleted and ready for occupancy by the
close of the present year. When fin
ished it will be one of the most tasty
and elegant structures in the city, and
we'll worthy the prominent place
which it will occupy. INK.
