THE arguments of Mr.. O'Conor and
Judge EVarts seeaed not to have CON
Cured in holding that the commission
possessed all the powers possessed by
Congress, aud that where Congress
would be restricted ia their examine

would be restricted. Mr.. OConor said !:

Tho Gr.., Land suit.

Yesterday evening the important
ease OF L. p. Bryan ct al. =. shirley

tIict court, by Judge Surford, in favor
of the defendants. This case has been
on trial for several weeks. The deci-
sion sustained the grant of the defend
ant.
The plaintiffs la the suit made their
location and survey In ISL, aud the
question before the court Was whether
or nos, al the date Of the plaintiff
survey, the land was vacant or appro.
pr.aled.
II WAS held by the court that the
defendants survey, made on the 10Th
of August, 1874, was protected aud
made valid by the act of the Congress
Of The Republic OF Texas passed Jauu-
aEy -, ISIS, because the same sas

PENDANTS WAS not without authority of
law, hut that the came by relation
operated to cure any defects in the
original survey.
This Case was most elaborateIy and

The defendants were represented iy

THE Hon. Jehn Hancock. in his
speech on the counting Of the electoral
votes and the propriety of establishing
the commission, seems TO have antici-
pated that upon Louisiana would hinge
all the hopes of the Democracy, and he
addressed the principal part OF his very
iorcibie argument to the task establish
ing the fact Of the unconsfitutionality
OF the returning board in that State.
He seems to have had that rare fore
sight to perceive the attitude the case
would assume before the commission
ahd TO have spoken to the very heart Of
this most important subject. His clear
logic, faultiessly free of involved senten-
ces and confusing rhetoric, must have
carried conviction to the minds and
conscience Of his hearers, and proved
acceptable to the scholarly lawyers who
appreciated the points he advanced.
