The Supreme Court Of Illinois has re-
Gently made a decision on a question con-
nected with the certi6catiUn Of checks,
which is Of general interest to the business
community. A small check, drawn BY q
merchant on a bank, was raised to q laFg'
er sum subsequently,, and alterable so as
to DO payable at another bank, where it
was, rendered in payment for gold. Be-
fore the latter paid the gold, it sent the
check to the bank 90 which it was drawn,
TO be certified. This having been done
the money was paid over, and the check
regularly deposited. 1t passed through
The Clearing House, and when the fraud
was discovered the 6rst bank sued the 9th
er, from which it came, to recover the
money. Hitherto the prepOndeFauce oil
authority has been, that q ccrtidcatlon ap'
plies only to geuuiueness Of the signature
but not to the amount Of the check, and
the court below decided to that effect
On appeal it was, however, said that thi:
rule holds only in instances where tue value
parted with was not on the faith Of The
certidCatiou. The Supreme Court held in
THIS case that the law Of estoppel applies
sioce it was on the faith Of the certi6catioI
Of the bank, and not on the trust Of tht
single check, that the money was paid

The government has adopted,
says the Wheeling Register, the
very sensible and practical plan Of
sending u corps of competent en-
gincers to examine the proposed
route of the James River and Kan
awha Canal and make report con-
corning its feasibility and its cost.
There have been many contradic-
tory assertions in relation to this
important enterprise, and there is a
lack of reliable information con-
corning the difficulties to be sur
mounted in the execution Of the
work. The opponents of the canal
claim that the surveys heretofore
made bclittle the difficulty and ex-
pensc Of the undertaking, and that
the scheme is impracticable. A
survey by Engineers by the gov
ernment will have the effect of set
ling the question as to the practica-
bility Of the enterprise, and will en-
able the people to Judge intelligent
ly whether the advantages to be Sc
cured by the construction of this
vast waterway between tide-water
and the West will be worth the
treasure the work will cost. The
Board of Engineers charged with
the examination of the route con
sists of Generals j. L. Barnard, Q
A. Gilmore, Colonel Weitzel, ant
Major W. P. Craighill. Whateve'
they report will doubtless be con
cured in by Congress and the pco
pie.

The Washington correspondent
of the Cincinnati Enquirer has this
to say, touching the decision in the
West Virginia cases.
There was at one time a belief
that, the Radical majority in the
House being considerably over two
thirds, would act fairly in the West
Virginia cases; but this error is now
dispclled. Forsome days past the
party screws have been brought to
bear, and even the speaker has been
lobbying to secure a decision upon
partisan grounds, seating the two
Republicqns-onc of whom, Mr..
Davis, some years ago pretended to
be Democrat. The Republicans
to-day paid Mr.. Davis their debt in
full for his retrcachery in 1872, by
overriding the report of their own
Committe, and giving him contrary
to law, the seat from the Wheeling
District. They were afraid to re-
mand these cases to the people of
West Virginia, well-knowing what
would be the result. In the case Of
ITagans, both the party Conven-
tons were SO well convinced that
August was not the day for the
election that they adjourned, max
ing no nominations. IIagans ran a
scrub race, barely getting tenth of
the woIc vote. Notwithstanding
this, he was to-day sworn in. Mr..
Boardman Smith, the Republican
Chairman of the election Commit
tee, has refused to do any of the
dirty work that was required of him
by Ills party, and has behaved with
an impartiaIity, independence, abil-
ity and moral courage that distin-
guish him most honorably and con-
spiciously from his associates. AS
for Garfield, he lodged the vote, as
did Dawes and others. Hale, Of
New York, voted with Boardmen
Smith and LAMAR but the mass of
the Radicals, headed by Butler,
have gone back to the same old
dirty groove in which they have
been running for over six years
past.

THAT RACE.-We refer to the
race between Charleston and Min
MO Moore. The Clifton (Mason)
men Hmtered Mr.. Lewis for race.
He replied by saying he would run
on the Charleston course for $500

swcr that they will put up the mon,
ey and will ran Minnie, provided
they are allowed to choose one
Judge, Mr.. Lewis enc and the third
to be chosen by these two; It is
therefore probable we shall have
the race in the Spring, and if we
have, neither horse will Jack plenty

If the people are really earnest in
in their demand for governmental
economy and retrenchment, now Is
the time for them to make the fact
felt and known. All sorts of ingcn-
ious projects are being pushed in
Congress to get money out of the
national treasury. The number of
private claims runs away up into
the thousands, involving an aggrc-
gate amount which a hundred mil
lions would not meet; and still they
come, backed up by powerful lob
by, representing almost as many
millions of dollars as the claims
themselves, while, back of it all
there looms the pregnant fact of al
empty treasury, and a well-nigh OK
'hausted reserve. Hands of, gen
tlemen.

Thn Richmond Examiner says

The principles Of the Radical party are
false principles; they are false 70 J u''lce'
false 10 national fair.deaIiug, false to The
substantial interests Of the country iaI'e
to the superiority Of The white race false
to the constitution as it was when the
founders Of the government framed it, and
as il is with all The amendments incorpo''
srcd into it. And Whatever policy the
leaders Of that party may from timO to time
propose to pursue, it cannot be, it should
not be, it must no! be, forgotten that
proclaimipg The zane principles IT pro-
claims now, and, perhaps, will coOtiDns to
proclaim as long as its organization exists.
ibis same Radical party is the author Of
all the woes with which the Conservatives
and Democrats have charged it for eight
years past.
