CENTENNIAL CELEBKATION.-We hear OF
large number of persons who are going to
Portland TO take part in tSe centennial cele-
bration. Judging from the news that reaches
us from the emporium, " that place will be
in a poor plight for celebration. It is un-
dsrsiood that the whole fiont of the city Is
under water, and that great damage has al
ready resulted. In the event that the water
subsidies before the 4tb, still the streets will to
left in dirty. dilapidated condition, and Will
be anything but pleasant for pedestrians;
We syInpathize with the people OF Portland
in tb,ir Inisturtunes. They had made great
prepsration-, and had nature proved propitI-
Gus they would have had grand time ln-
stead of that the town is much IN the condi-
tion of a drowned rat, and those who go there
to celebrate most likely will be disappointed

THE COURTS.
A CouNry's AID TO A RAILWAY.


John S. Dodge sued, as the representative
of whom he had induced to take bonds OF
Platte County Missouri for coupons $4,000 of the
bonds issued I'm the Of that county In aid OF the
Chicago and Southwestern Railway Company The
coupons OF the bonds were made payable at Newfork
bank so that the suit. which on two coupons on
each bond was brought here These bonds were issued
by the county judge of Platte County under law a-
thorzng issue of $4,000 Of bonds of the county on
certain conditions The real defense obscured by legal
denials Is authorized the Issuance OF comfy
bonds in aid of the road upon the assent Of majority
of the taxpayers within that part OF the
county to be benefited by the building OF
the road and the bonds be charged specially on
that section The Interested taxpayers authorized the
900 of bonds The court took formal PROOF
the action OF the and under the statute
executed the bonds in the of the whole county and
appears to he that the railway company knew OF the
limitations the issue OF the bonds and therefore the
bonds coupons against the county gen rally are
not valid.
The case was referred to exJudge Bosworth, who de-
cided that tho bonds were not absolutely without
consideration, and therefore not absolutely void, and
whether not the bonds coupons might ne Neu IN
the hands Of the railway company on account or the
knowledge OF the facts under which they were Issued
knowledge Of tine facts tending to impair the coupons
He therefore awarded Judgment for the clalm when,
with interest and costs amounts now TO $3.50 ~, Tor
which Judgment was entered yesterday. Miller Peet *
Opdyke appeared for the plaintiff; John III. barbour
for the county, defendant.
