Tomorrow (Monday) tho larg-
est and most important suit ever
tried in this city comes up before
the United States Circuit Court.
The holders of what are known as
the consolidated bonds of New Or
leans have enjoined the city from
paying any other class of bonds
than the consolidated bonds,
amounting to $4,500,00O, claiming
that all other bonds have been is-
sued in violation of the law au-
thorizing the issne of the consol-
idated bonds, and are therefore it,
legal and void. The funded debt
of the city amounts to about
$4,000, 900, and the amount at
stake in this suit is the difference
between this enormous sum aud
the amount OF the consolidated
bonds-$4, 100000. Judge John
A. Campbell and E. E. Bermudez,
Esq, represent the consolidated
boudholders ; B. f, Jonas, City
Attorney, appears for the city, and
fifteen or twenty prominent mem
bers of the bar for the holders of
the different classes OF bonds

Legislative Topics.

The dfsaffection of the colorpd
Senator Demas, who has returned
to Packard's caucus, has created
little surprise and excitement. for
without him the Senate still re-
tains even a Returning Board
quorum.
Demas' action has been COM
mented on variously. but, of
coul se, his motives were anything
but dishonest. As to the remain
ing Senators, there is no danger
of their boiling, and even Demas
may repent before many hours OF
his course.
P. B. s. P.
Yesterday Mr.. Pinchback paid
his usual visit to the Legislature,
and representative OF the Demo-
crat had = short interview with
him. Pinch says he felt all right
when asked about the situation.
He has no anxiety about the re-
suit and is patient. The sixteen
days referred to by the President
to consider what action he shall
take, he thinks, is very short
time, and that everything will
come out all right. l say this,
said Mr.. Pinchback, because
KNOW WHAT KNOW,
and his confidence was plainly ey-
pressed by the cheerfulness of his
couutenance as he spoke.
The Senate yesterday was prin-
cipally engaged on the revenue
bill, whilst the House made con-
siderable progress in a short time
on the general appropriation bill.
1t was pleasant indeed to notice
the smoothness with which the
members worked on this gen.

The Laws of Public Sales.

AS there are great many public
sales Of personal property throughout
the country at this season of the year,
we call the attention of auctioneers
and venders to a few principles of law,
which do not seem to be generally un-
derstood by them. In a sale by
auction there are three parties,
namely : the owner Of the property to
be sold, the auctioneer, and Il portion
of the public who attend to bid,
which, Of course, includes the highest
bidder. The name of the owner must
be made public. The articles put up
must be sold without reserve, and un-
less the vender reserves one open bid
he cannot bid himself or have the
auctioneer or any one else to bid for
him. There are cases on record
where bid was not reserved, and the
vender had bidder who bid it in, and
afterwards, suit was brought against
the vender by the highest outside bid
der for the article, and it was decided
that he (the plaintiff) was the highest
bidder and entitled to the article,
against the vender. So, also, if an
article is struck off to person, and ii
is afterwards ascertained that the ven
der or auctioneer practiced fraud, by
holding himself or had puflers; il
was held both by the Court o
England and SO repeatedly decided by
the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania
that the purchaser could not be held
but the purchaser as soon as he dis
covers the fraud practiced upon him
must return or tender the article t
the Vender.

The Return of the "Boys in Blue"

The Seventeenth Regiment n. c..
p. were ordered home from Scranton
on Friday last, and ut about five
o'clock the train of ten cars, containing
the regiment, steamediaway from the
Scranton depot. The boys were in
good spirits at the thought of going
home, and songs and merriment filled
the fleeting hours, until, overcome
with sleep, all hands were soon in the
arms of the fairy goddess. Occasion
ally we would be awakened by the
noise of the train, and realize that we
were moving at q very rapid rate,
and then with the thought that per-
haps broken rail or misplaced switch
might consign the whole regiment to
destruction, again go to sleep, TO
dream of the manner in which we
would be received when we reached
home.
The train reached Ridgway at eight
o'clock Saturday morning, where the
regiment disembarkcd and cooked
breakfast by the road side.
a large number of people had
gathered TO welcome the members of
Company II, and the hearty grasps of
the hand, and many Expressions of
congratulations at their safe arrival,
all denoted that the people of Ridgway
still held the members of Co. II in re.
membrance, and were glad to see
them return in good spirits. The
Company were marched to the court
yard where the guns were stacked,
after which each one sought his home
to change his clothes and brush up a
little, a very necessary thing to do
after such long ride in the cars.
In the afternoon the Company 'Tell
in" and were marched to Rhines'
Hall where supper awaited them
which had been prepared by the
ladies, and which in quantity and
quality was ahead of anything we
have seen in Il long time. The boys
after their two weeks fast on hard
tack were abundantly able to do full
justice to the splendid bill of fare set
before them, and each one felt, as he
slipped the fragrant coffee, and partook
of the delicious ice cream, that the
cloud which rested on our departure
from Ridgway was silver-lined a
thousand times by this testimonial of
welcome at our return. All honor
and thanks lin which words fail to
eXpress) to the ladies of Ridgway who
originated and carried to success this
happy idea. After supper some talk
ing was INDUCED in by Lieut.. Bailey,
and others, after which the Company
sang "Will you be Dab" and took their
leave, In the evening II free dance
was given Company II in RhinCs s.
Hall, where enjoyment was had until
q quarter before twelve at which time
all sought their hCmes in time not to
break in on the Sabbath morning

Lecture ut the Lutheran Church.

On Saturday evening next Prof. H.
w. Roth of Thiel College, Greenvil!e,
Mercer County, will deliver lecture
at the Lutheran church for the bene-
fit of the church. The subject of the
lecture being Martin Luther" a sub
ject which wepredict will be handled
with ability, knowing as we do the
eloquence and learning ofthe Lecturer.
No doubt Il rich treat will be in store
for those who attend, therefore we adj
wise all to be there. The Lutheran
church is very much in need of funds
and is also deserving institution
which fact should induce all to go
and while helping deserving charity
at the same time get the worth o
their money in entertainment. Ad
mission so cents.

The officers and members of Co., H,
18th Regt., N. G. 2. tender their hearty
thanks to those citizens of Ridgway,
who assisted them in their efforts to
respond to the call of Gov. Hartranft
for troops, and encouraged them by
words and acts of kindness to go for
ward and perform their duty as MEM
bers of the National Guard of Pa.
Also to the ladies of Ridgway who so
kindly welcomed us home upon our
return, for the very elegant and
sumptuous supper at Rhines' Hall,
which was appreciated by us, as only
square meal can be appreciated by
soldiers who have breakfasted, dined,
and supped upon ham and hard-tack

Hartranft's Great Ride.

When the great strike at Pittsburgh be-

and a few friends-was on his way TO

telegram apprising HIM of the terrible riot,
reached him at Ogden City, Utah territory.
lie imme liately turned back-the balance
of the party, however, coutinuing on TO
their destination. The C. and N. W.. rail
road company furnished the governor with
a special engine and car, and it is said the
speed made by the train exceeded that
made by the celebrated Jarret and Palmer
train last year, One stretch of34S miles
Was made in eight hours and twenty-one
minutes. Time lost by stoppages, sixteen
Misunderstanding the Jarret and Palmer
train twenty-one minutes. This was fas
time, and when it is known thai no special
preparation was made for the return trip
"Harlranft's Ride" may be set down a
the fastest on record.
