From the report OF Treasurer Hem
ineway, we have copied the subjoined
statement of disbursements of the State
Treasury for the fiscal year 1875. 1t
will be seen that several items are enor'
rnously neavy. For example, the Peni-
tentiary and Lunatic Asylum. On ac-
count of the former, 1929 were ex-
pended, and for the latter 1888, 800. The
expenditure on account of the Executive
Department, S54, 969, is about five times
in excess of the average expenditure for
the same department under citizens rule.
For assessing, the enormous sum of sou
844 was expended. For the Judiciary,
1905, 267, were paid for the public
printing S82, 000--comment is unneces-
sary but wait and contrast the expendi-
ture under this head with the expendi-
ture for the year 1876. There will be a
signal reduction on account of the Ju-
dietary when the reform bill which has
passed the Legislature is put into opera
ton. The year 1877 will furnish the
contrast between the Radical policy OF
extravaganza and the Democratic policy
of economy in this department.
For the purpose of comparison il
would be well to file away this table,
showing the disbursements of the State
Treasury under the several heads of &C
count during the fiscal year 1875;

Hmmi grafton Items from the VIC
Comb City EnteiliSencer-

The following immigration items are
copied from the McComb City Intelli-
eencer We will add that the earnest
labors of the Intelligencer, in making
known the advantages of our soil and eli
mate, and the inducements to immigra-
ton, have awakened no little interest on
the subject among the people of the
Northwest where it is largely circulated
through the agency of the Mississippi
Valley Company, and its interchangeable
Secretary, Col. Hillyard. The following
are some of the fruits:
Mr.. J. J. Snithneire, of Indiana, has
been in our town for the past week look
ing for large plantation for himself and
seven sons. He is little colony in his
own family.
Dlr. Hillyard showed him several
plantations on Boguechitto, and he ex'
presses himself much pleased with this
section. He will find no cheaper nor
more healthful lands in this State than
there, while the beauty of that fertile
valley and its proximity to McComb City
will certainly assure satisfaction and
profit.
Since writing the above, Mr.. Hillyard
has sold the Quin place, on the Bogue-
chitto, for s12, $50 The farm contains
1900 acres. Mr.. Smithmeire informs
us that several farmers in his vicinity
will buy here, as he is but pioneer.
Rev. T. H. Widney, of Limerick,
Illinois, accompanied by his wife, is stop
ping at the DeSoto House. Mr.. Widney
is looking for location for colony from
Illinois. He expresses himself as highly
pleased with our climate and surround
ings, and we trust he will be prevailed
upon to locate in this ~section, and thai
our people will hold out such inducements
as to confirm him in the good impression!
he has already received Of this country
Mr.. Widney is guest of Col. NJ. B

Washington Capital. |

Washington Capital.
Wheat is festive claim agent of the
Metropolis, and his luxurious tastes are
in an inverse ratio to his legitimate means
of gratifying them.
Terrapin, canvass-back duck, pate de
fois gras, champagne, frappe, and Reina
Vlctorias cannot be procured without
money and without price, and so the cpl
curean Wheat resolved himself into a
committee of ways and means to deter
mine financial measures. He struck a
big bonanza in the Postofice Department.
where, by col usion with some plastic
subordinate, it was ascertained what
postmasters had balances in their favor
in the settlement of their accounts with
the Government.
In this category of honest officials was
Hon. Robert j. Alcorn, for postmaster
at Grenada, Mississippi. At the instiga-
ton of his accomplice, Wheat obtained
from him power of attorney to collect
the money due him by the Government,
which Wheat proceeded to do with
claim agents alacrity, but forgot to remit
the money to its owner, and converted it
to his own use.
When Mr.. Alcorn demanded his own.
the injured Wheat looked upon him as
an intruder and treated him to game
of bluff. Mr. Alcorn, strange to say,
did not relish such treatment and caused
the delusive Wheat to be arrested. He
was arraigned at the police court, and,
waving hearing, was committed to jail
in default of bail.

Opinion of the Court By SIMRALL, j.

Opinion of the Court By SIMRALL, j.
This was bill in equity to enjoin the re-
movAl and sale of a schooner by the admin
istratOr of the original debtor, pending an
action at law by the appellee to enforce a
mechanics lien for lumber furnished to
build the vessel. The lum Der was delivered
between August l3th 1873 and February
1874, and am Ounted to 1919 80. Part was
paid and a note for the balance $771 II was
given by the debtor on Novembe' Sth, 1873,
payable ten months after date. The suit at
law was commenced in October, 1874, within
six months after the maturity of the note,
but not within six months after the delivery
of the last lot OF lumber. A demurrer to the
bill presented the question whether the
lien was barred by Limitation. Held:
I. The statute 8 1909, code of 1871, re-
quires that the action to enforce the lien
shall be commenced within six months af-
ter the debt is due and payable. Taking a
note is not payment of a debt unless so un-
derstood between the parties.
III. If the note was the contract which
fixed the maturity of the debt tor the lum-
Der, then the statute commenced To run
from the maturity of the note. and the ac-
| ton was begunin time; but if the original
debt was past due when the note was given.
and the time of pay ment was extended,
Ihen The lien cannot be so extended as t"
prejudice third persons, as this question OF
fac is left in doubt nv the bill. Reversed
Nth ledve to the complainant to amend his
bill.

Plaintiff in error was indicted for shooting

The indictment did not charge that the pis-
toll was deadly weapon. Held:
L. Where the indictment is framed under
the first paragraph of 2497, Code 1871, it is
not necessary to aver that the fire arm is a
deadly weapon. Under the second para
graph of the section. an Indictment should
charge that the instrument used was a dead
