IMPORTANT DECISION.
A decision involving very important
principles was rendered in the U. 8. Cir
cult Court this afternoon by Judge Drum
mond in the case of the Atlantic s Pacific
Telegraph Company against the Chicago,
Rock Island i Pacific Railroad Company.
The telegraph company, accepting the set
OF Congress Of July "a, 1866, entitled
IAN act TO aid in erecting telegraph lines
and to secure to the government the use
Of the same for postal, military and other
purposes" commenced the construction
Of line along the route Of the Rock Is
land road between Chicago and Omaha,
The railroad company ordered the tele-
graph company TO desist after few poles
were set. The telegraph company appli.
ed 10 the o. s. Circuit Court for an in-
junction restraining the Railroad Co. from
Interfering with the construction OF their
lines, claiming that as the Rock Island
Road carried the United States mail it
WasA post road, and came under the pro.
visions Of the act Of 1865. The railroad
was represented by Messrs. Williams and
Thompson, attorneys. 1t was claimed
by them that the act in question applied
only 10 roads traVersing the public do.
main, that the right OF way which had
been condemned and purchased by the
railroad under the State laws was the
property of the railroad company, and
under the fifth amendment to the Consti-
tuition could not be taken without com.
pensation.
Judge Drummond, in bis decision, held
that the act Of July 4, 1865, limits the
powers therein conferred TO such military
and post roads OF the United States as
are owned and exclusively controlled by
the Government; that the act does not in
clude railroads which have been desig-
mated as post routs by other acts Of Con.
gresS, over which the Government exer-
cises have no control but simply contracts
for the carriage OF the mails Of the United
States; that neither under the act Of 1866
nor under any other act can Congress
take or authorize the taking OF the pri.
vate property Of 8 railroad corporation for
the purpose Of erecting and maintaing a
telegraph line without compensation for
the franchise 30 sought 10 be granted.

ABOUT eight couples Of young ladies
and gentlemen assembled at q house in
Centre Wheeling last night, for the pur.
pose Of participating in the ''mazy,p and

waiting over an hour Tor the musicians,

considered themselves sold, and went to
their homes Immediately, muttering dire
threats Of vengeance on The long fiddler.

THE packets Chesapeake and Katydid,
running between Parkersburg and CALI
opolis, have had an unsettled qeestion Of
speed pending for some time. Numerous
attempts have been made to bring the
matter to an issue. A fair and square
trial has been lodged by both sides, each
endeayoriDg to secure certain advantages
well known to steamboat men. On Mon.
day, however, whether by accident or
design an opportunity either ITO put up
or shut up" was forced upon both parties,
and the race took place. One of our
Wheeling friends who was aboard one Of
the packets, informs rs that the race was
holly contested and very exciting. The
boats were nose and nose almost. all the
time, there scarcely ever being q time
when q stone could not be thrown from
one boat 10 the other. Parkersburg hay
ing learned that the race was In progress
sent down small steamer to report, but
the messenger, having met the boats,
found itself unable to keep up with them,
much less TO become a herald. The
Chesapeake arrived at Palkersburg barely
far enough ahead Of her rival to base q
shadow Of victory, and thereupon the
Parkersburg people were happy, the vic
tor being entirely home institution.
