LOCAL INTELLIGENCE.

AN IMPORTANT LEGAL PoISr. In the
suit for the ownership of lot of bul.
lion, which is now being tried in the
District Court, some interesting points
have been raised by the counsel on each
side. The Practice Act of this State
requires the sureties, on an attachment
bond, TO undertake to pay, in gold coin
of the United States, the costs and dam
ages which the opposite party may sus-
tain by reason of the attachment. The
bond ia this case reads 1--WE agree to
pay the cost and damage which the de !
PENDANT may sustain. not exceeding 5000
United States gold coin." The Court
held that it was not an agreement to pay
the cost and damage of tho defendant in
gold coin, and for that reason the writ
of attachment issued upon the bond
WAS void.
