The Courts.

Joseph Longworth and others against
the City. Judge Harmon disposed OF this
case, a suit to enjoin the city authorltHs
from placing the assessment for improving
Colerain avenue on the tax duplicate. An
Injunction would be granted as against the
assessment as made:
Thomas Newell against J. Thacker. Judge
Harmon decided this case. This was an ac-
ton to set aside two conveyances made by
the defendant to his sister, the allegation
being that they were made in fraud OF cred
itors Decree for the plaintiff.
azon Insurance Company, motion to
amerce the Sheriff, filed on former day,
was heard yesterday by Judge Harmon and
taken under advertisement

Weber, held for the purpose of choosing an
assignee, were brought up last evening
Leo Brigel was declared elected and his
bond fixed at $5O0,O00, which was given
later on. Judge Matson being of the opin
ion that the case presented different ques
ton from that arising in the former pro
ceeding, where the creditors meeting die
not result in any choice, concluded that the
right of appeal did exist.

A TOBACCO Box AND A REMINIscENcE.-
George r. Nance, now residing near Pine
Bush, this county, has an old tobacco box
which is still in service-which was the
property of his grandfather, John Nance,
who was one of the first settlers OH the
Shawangunk Mountains, in the town OF
Wawarsing. 1t is related of him that dur
ing the revolution he, together with rela-
tive, accompanied by girl, started to cross
the mountain from Shawangunk to WaWar
sing, and when on the mountains they were
attacked by party of Indians, and the rel
ative and the girl were killed. Mr.. Nance
ran and was pursued to a narrow point
whence the only escape was over
steep precipice of rocks, at
the base of which there were trees
reaching up to near the level where he
stood. Having no other hope OF escape he
jumped into one of them, which served to
break his fall with no other injury than a
sprained ankle AS he got up and started
to run he cast his eyes upward to the rock
from which he had jumped, and there saw
one of the Indians with his gun leveled as
| if 10 shoot, but strange as it seemed tc
Nance he was allowed to escape, the reason
being explained to him at the close Of the
war by this same Indian, who was known tC
Nance that they wished to capture and no
| kill him, because he was skillful hunter
and could render them great service. The
tobacco box now owned and used by Mr.
George r. Nance was in his grandfather
pocket during that perilOus adventure, anC
has passed from one generation Of the fam
| lily to another as treasured helrloon.-
