Opinion of the Court, By TARBELL ).
This was a suit before a Justice of the
Peace for $3.50 on an official bond of another
Justice of the Peace for $4,000. Judgment
for the plaintiff for 500. On appeal to the
Circuit Court, the cause was dismissed on
the ground that the Justice of the Peace
had no Jurisdiction, The action of the Cir
cult ON this question of jurisdiction was the
only point considered by the court on the
writ of error. Held:
That the suit was only for $3.50, this being
the sum demanded, and notfor the full PEN
atty of the bond the Justice of the Peace
had jurisdiction of the case. Reversed and
remanded.

Beautiful Memorials.

The interior of St. Mary's is fast bccom-
ing one of the most attractive places OF
worship in all this section OF the country,
possessed By the Catholic communion. 1t
was thought by many when the edltice
was commenced, that it was a poor place
for Catholic church; but they who con
ceived the project saw farther into the
future than the persons who thought it an
unwise and foolish Investment of money.
}nt now Father tlayin has a parish OF
three hundred famiiies, and the attend-
ance at St Marys High Mass. on Sunday,
averages from seven hundred to nine hun
| bred persons And while this is the case,
| there seems 10 be no lessening of numbers
in the other churches of the city.
| The church contains several memorials,
among the most beautiful OF which are
the altar erected in memory OF Father
Maurice Flayin, who did so much for his
people during the few years he was per-
United to labor among them. 1t is St.
Joseph's altar, on the epistle side OF the
great altar. Near it is the NEST beautiful
burial tablet yet placed al any church
edifce in this city.
Its inscriptions are very appropriate in
their brief recital of the services Of the Ia
mented priest. Both altar and tablet are
tokens Of brothers affection, being erect
ed by Father Michael Flavln, who pre-
ceded his brother as priest of the perish.
A few dars since another memorial
altar, dedicated 70 the Blessed Virgin,
was placed on the south side of-the grta,
altar. 1t is a counterpart of St. Joserh's
altar. 1t is Of walnut and butternut, anC
gothic in design. The tabernacle base i:
supported by flute columns, whose piintf
and capitals are orLamented in gold. The
tabernacle is of beautiful design, and forms
! the pedestal for the Virgin Mary which il
given fine relief by the gothic arch behind
it, which rises from between turrets
is ornamented with foliage and surmountet
e by pinnacle which terminates in t3enr d
: lis. This altar is the gift of Mrs. Heller
Kehoe, and is in memory of a brother an,
:. a sister, whose names appear 10 table

WHAT Answer
From the N. Y. Tribaae.

From fae ~ y 1ft0Uaes
The Democrats in congress have been in
some doubt as to the proper course to
pursue with reference to Senator Morton
Mississippi speech aud resolution. We do
not think they need give themselves un
easiness Answers to the speech are
pouring in from several quarters
simultaneously, more convincing than any
set address in the senate or the house,
Gov. amberlain's letter to Senator
Norton, the memorial of the Alabama
legislature. the disclosures In the matter
of Senator West, the old story of Louisi.
ana revived by the nomination of Billings
to the vacant place of Durell-all these
illustrations of the rotton- borough system
are destroying the political effect of
Senator Morton's words about as fast as he
can utter them, and the Democrats can
hardly improve the situation by interfering,
The conviction is very strong among Re-
publicans of the better class that the
Force and Fraud system of governing the
south must be abandoned 1t once or the
party cannot survive another election.
They see that in its attempt to retain
hold of the carpet bag states the admins
tration has lost the confidence of the rest
of tie country, aud it is better for them to
give Up part of the south, il the south
does not want them, thar to sustain them
selve, there any longer by violent and dis
honest devices which affront the moral
sense of the whole Union. The best
course for the Democrats is to let this just
and sensible feeling work out its natural
results. They will only mar if they meddle.
| AS for the possible discoveries of CON-
/ oe nfIa
we do not see why either party should
shrink from shem. If the investigation
he honestly conducted, it cannot fail OF
bringing to light multitude OF scandal }us
transactions which both parties ought t.
be eager to correct; and lift he dishonesty
conducted, it will certainly damage those
who take it up Merely as matter oil
political strategy, the democrats can rerl
well afford to let the Mississippi inquiry

Nothing should suit them better thar t.

The Boston Gents" Style.

Cheap agents" always viii have a
style of their own. \ specimen Of the
latest costume devised by them, says
the Boston Globe, should be set aside
as a souvenir Of the Centennial year,
and il is suggested that "swell from
the Bunker Hill District-where the
style is reported to have originated
should be boxed and sent to the Phila-
delphia Exposition, and placed either
in the Art Gallery or Machinery Hall,
provided he be accessible TO the gush-
ing lady correspondents. First, you
know, you get hobby piece Of goods
that is, one in which all the cslors of
the rainbow are blended, arranged in a
plaid about two inches square, and
spotted with white. The ''pants" must
be made skin tight with an overlapping
seam one inch in width, and "spring'
at the bottom coming clear to the
toes. The vest must be some
thing of diamond shape and extend
nearly to the knees: the coat must be
cut In sack, and the pockets on both
coat and vest must be of such dimen-
sions as the cloth will allow, and the
whole be bound with binding at least an
inch in width. The overcoat to match
must reach nearly to the heels, and
must be bound with silk at least two
inches in width, while the pockets must
be large enough to- admit common
sized ledger. The boots must curl up
at the toes like a dandelion stem, and
the welt must be large enough to carry
small boy, should occasion require.
A slouched hat, or beaver with weed,
cast-iron cuff-buttons and pin, and a
mammoth steel chain complete this
elegant outfit.

THE REWARD OF KINDNESS.

Mrs Gorham put down letter she
had been reading, and looking around
the table at her blooming daughters and
two tai, handsome sons, she said in a
doleful tone:
- Your Aunt Sabina Is coming, and
has invited herself here without cere-
mOnv.-
When?" asked Arabella, with an
information Of intense disgust.
=. She viii reach here this afternoon.
Wilber. you will have to meet her,
- Sorry, ms; but promised to drive
Miss Caldwell TO the park Fred can

:. Certainly, / viii 60" Fred said
gravely, though there was hot flush
on his forehead. al am very fond of
aunt
=. Nonsensei- said his mother. "You
have not seen her for fourteen years.
never went 10 the detestable old farm
after your father died"
- Nevertheless, have a vivid recol-
lection Of Aunt Sabina's kindness while
We were there"
"Dear me, Fred drawled Lscilla,
:" don't be sentimental. wish the old
thing would stay home. can't i'm
agine what she is coming here for
:. She is our fathers sister, /" said Fred,
g and can not find any thing surpris-
ing in her looking for n welcome among
her brothers children
Mrs. Gorham shrugged her shoulders.
II she had spoken her thought, il
would have been-"Fred is so odd,
just like his father" But she only said
-. may depend upon you, then, to
meet your aunt, Fred? will see abost
her room"
II was a source Of great satisfaction
TO Mrs. Gorham that her children were
all like herself "sGreers,' every one
except Fred, - she would say, congratu-
iating herself that the blood of "Gor-
ham PEREZ was not transmitted in the
features Of her elder son, WILDER, or
any OF the three girls.
That Greer pride meant intense self
ishness; that Greer beauty was Of n
cold. hard type; that Greer disposition
was tyrannical and narrow-minded-
did not trouble Mrs. Gorham. That
the son, who was ssall Gorham, was
proud to the core with the pride that
knows no false shame-that he was no
Bile in disposition, handsome in frank,
manly type, generous and self-sacrific-
ing-she could not appreciate. His
hands and feet were not 80 small as
darling Wilber's, he had no fashionable
Alterations and no "Greer" look. SO his
mother thought him rough and coarse.
and his sisters declared that he had no
style at ali. But outside the home,
where great show Of wealth was made
by many private economies, Fred was
more appreciated.
When he became a man, and knew
