WORKINGS OF THE BANKRUPT LAw.-To
| illustrate how business integrity is de-
bauched: A merchant bought $4,000
! worth OF goods or credit, and soon after
had himself put in bankruptcy by friend
so he would have to pay nothing for re-
lease, procured friend to be made as
signee, who had the stock appraised at
S., 900, which another friend bought in ut
fifty cents on the dollar, and transferred to
the original merchant on the very day he
received his discharge, thus securing
goods worth $4,000 for $500. When
one OF his creditors, purchasing at
his store, asked reduction on the article,
giving as q reason that lie had lost so
much money by him, the debtor exclaimed,
"Do you think was such fool as to 60
into bankruptcy for your benefit?" 1t
| will be asked, How can such things be and
not come to the notice of the officers Of the
Court2 The proceedings were regular, and
the Court relies upon the oaths made before
it. Even in the case OF the bankrupt who
has no desire to defraud, the fees attending
the proceedings are so enormous that, as the
law student said, g the aim Of bankruptcy
seems to be to make an equitable division Of
the assets between the officers Of the courtand
the members OF the bar.'' We know of an
instance OF large operator in Iowa who
was at one time reckoned to be worth five
millions of dollars. He moved to Chicago
and engaged extensively in banking, pack
ing. and produce. He had real estate esti-
mated to be worth three millions OF dollars.
He obtained from Hartford Iife-insurance
company loan OF one million dollars ON
his real estate, and then he took the benefit
of the bankrupt law in SO short time that
the mortgage was adjudged fraudulent as
to his other creditors, and the company will
scarcely realize twenty cents on the dollar
Of the principal sum advanced, to say no.
thing OF the interest. In the light OF COM
mon honesty this would be called an i'm
mense swindle, but it is nevertheless the
Legitimate workings OF the national bank

Political Scraps.-The mass-meeting OF
disa1ected Conservatives OF Chesterfield
will be held at the courthouse to-day.
DR.. L. r. Chiles, nominee for the State
Senate, against whom there is no opposi-
ton, says that he will wait awhile before
entering upon canvass OF the senatorial
district. A few days ago he intimated to
your reporter that be would start out very
soon; he now says that he has changed his
Mayor OF Manchester before the November
election. He has served the public here for
severa! years in the capacity of magistrate,
police justice, and Mayor, and in the time
has made, not, like most men Of similar po-
sition, enemies, but host of friends.
There will be at least dozen aspirants
for the Mayoralty.

HENRICO COUNTY CouRT-.1MP0RTANT ROAD
CASE DECIDED-AN EX-ShERIFF FINED.-ln
the Henrico County Court yesterday Judge
Minor delivered the judgment OF the Court
in the case Of the Richmond, Williamsburg
and Henrco Turnpike Company, declaring
its charter forfeited, and throwing the road
open to the public. The case was argued
at the last term Of the court by Colenel
John B. Young for the complainants, ana
Charles U. Williams, Esq, for the defend
ants.
The grounds taken BY those who brought
the action are that the turn pike was char
tered by act Of the Legislature in 1860, the
charter stating that it was to be graded and
eravelled for ten miles each on the Williams
burg and Central or Darbytown roads. The
act did not specify any limit to the time
when this improvement should be compile
ted. The company wcntto work soon after
its organization and put into proper condi-
ton two and half miles on each road, and
have not gone beyond that point.
The Legislature passed subsequent act
on the 23d OF February, 1875, declaring
that turnpike companies which had not IN
two years from that date completed their
lines according to the terms OF their char
ters should be thrown open to the public.
1t was on this act that the compainants
brought their action, which was sustaine ed
by the Court.
The counsel took exception to the order
of the Court, and had suspended the eXecu-
ton of the order for thirty days In order to
enable them to apply to the Circuit Court
for writ OF error.
Ex-Sherif G. Wagner, Of Henrico, was
tried on a presentment for misdemeanor,
found guilty, and fined IS and costs.

Guigon returned to the city on Wednesday,

menced its fall term.
The Grand Jury, Of which Major John
II. Claiborne was foreman, met at ii o'clock.
The Judge stated that he had purpOsed say
ing something to the grand jury on the sub
ject OF the Mofiert liquor law, but the mass OF
criminal business which had accumulated
during the courts vacation was such that
he would defer saying anything until they
could give the subject their special atten-
ton. This he would Say, however, in the
outset, that this was law OF Virginia, and
1t would be executed to the very letter, and
il rendered necessary, by evasion or viola
tion, such as this court is informed has been
commensurate with its Importance to the
with its provisions.
The grand jury found true bills for felony
in the following cases James Tyler, for en-
tering the dwelling house Of E. j. warren

spoons, silver ladle, silver forks, DC; John
