AN INTERESTING SAVINGS BANK CASE
Yesterday, in the Equity Court, the case of W.
>. Hunt1nstOn's administrators against The a.
uOnal Savings Bank, was argued before Judge
Humphreys. Judge Paschal appeared for plain
I'M, and Mr.. W. s. Cox, for defendant. The
plaintiffs claim that Huntington was one of the
cOTpOTators OF the bank under the charter OF
May 18th, 1870, and set forth the provisions of
the charter; that Huntington, with the other
$4,000, and deposited the same with the clerk
OF the court. They charge that no capital was
paid IN except enough to start business was adj
Vanced, which advance was shared equally:
tea II has done large business for nearly four
years; has never sustained any considerable
losses, has never Issued stock, and, therefore
all it's profits and the present value OF its capital
stock belong 70 the sixteen corpOTatOrs ana
that It's value IL now over half a million dollars
They further charge that Huntington never re-
ceiyed IN dividends more than $500, and that
The other COTpOrsfOTs have received larger
dividends, and they Lave given out that all the
rights OF Huntington survive 20 them, and TO give
expression Of their views since the death of H.
Ihey nave adopted bylaw "that upon the
death OF any member his successor, if any ia TO
he chosen by the surviving members who shall
enter into bonds" &c. They state that they
nave exhausted all reasonable means OF settling
the matter, have offered TO TeIinOuish II. - in
terest 10 the bank or to any person il night
name; that they have proposed TO sell TO John
van kisTiCk, who agreed 10 purchased IL defe nd
they dallied over, and finally indefinitely post
pODed.
The bank claimed that the interest Of HINT
ingtOn at bis death reverted to them. The
arguments we're concluded, and the case is held

WAsHTNGTONIAEs IN TRoUBLR-Yesterda Az
afternoon two young and genteelly- dressed
women and a man came here from Washington
10 pay, as they said, some calls, and, 20 enable
them TO bear the fatigues OF the day, repaired
TO Cooney's restaurant, where they ordered re-
freshments. But whilst the dinner was ia
Preparation, the handsomer of the women Mrs
Alice Rupp, having looked too often upon the
wine cup when il was red, proceeded 10 dis
tuTb the harmony OF the household, aud did il
SO eteetually az to induce the proprietors of the
establishment to request her and her friends 10
vscate the premises at once, and TO stand not
upon the order of their departure. This re-
quest was complied with by Mr.. William Bell
and Mrs. Lilly Homes, but, though urged in
emphatic terms, was UNDECIDED by Mrs RQpp;
so she was seized, dragged down the steps and
eJected IN demOraliZed condition, having
dropped her watch, and, as she asserted, lost an
envelope containing forty-fve dollars, by the
violence OF her egress. Her watch was restored
but no money could be found, whereuuon a,
companied by her two companions, she went 10
the once OF Justice Padgett, by whom, at her
instance, warrant for an arrest was issued
against John and Joseph CoOney, and the latter
having appeared at the Justices office, in ODE
dience to the summons of Constable Burnett in
company with his counsel, Mr.. Edmund Rurt,e
the case WAS tried with closed doors and dis
missed at the cost of complainant. The Gaci-
sion 20 much enraged Mrs. Rupp that she ap-
preached the defendant and struck him tSics
on the nose with the handle of her parasol, for
doing which the justice threatened to lock her
in the station-house. This put quietus t. the
sadly discounted.
GBOsT.-A veritable ghost now haunts that
portion of the first ward known as Tunnel
Town. Upon several late occasions, towards
the witching hours of night, it has been seen by
the fear-oppresSed eyes of belated denizens of
that locality, az they homeward wended their
weary way, engaged in tricks fantastical. IL
appears in the questionable shape OF a beauti
tul girl, dressed all in write, and of full yoIuD-
tu0us, but not DER bulk.
PROBABLE FATAL ACCIDENr.-Mr. John
CIubb, who lives near this city, while engaged
III hauling lumber to a church this afternoon
was 60 badly injured that his lite is almost
despslred OF. The horses attached to his wayon
ran on, and throwing BIN out dragged nun
from the toll-gate to the bridge, about ia zee
hundred yards before breaking his LEFT leg sew
eral OF his ribs, and ilficting other serious in
juries.
The STRAIGHToUTs.-It is stated that the
entire delegation from Alexandria county. a.
also portion OF that from this city, to the Cul-
pepper (radica) convention are opposed to anv
fusion with the disaffeeted consery at!ves. aud
announce themselves in favor of a straighout

are L. q. O'Neal, present member Of the legis-
lature from this city, and Richard Ii. Carter
