IMPORTANT ADMIRALTY SUITS.
A Number Of New Points Raised
Before the United Btata court
Liability and special Contract By
Steamers.
The admiralty causes, Of which men.
ton has been hitherto made in these
columns, and which grew out Of three
several libels filed against the steamers
A. ]. White. Illinois and George W.
Cheek and some eighty intervening
libels, were up before Judge TrigZ yes
terday for argument. A number Of ex.
ceptions we're filed to the report Of the
commissioner, which allowed the c. o.
D. claims and the bar leases to be paid
among the first claims. The
second-class claims allowed, viz: sup
plies furnished aud repairs made in
the home port. we're also excepted to.
The claims of insurance men were not
allowed, and for this there were excep.
tionsi nor were the claims Of those as
sertiug rights under the deed of trust
OF the Memphis and Vicksburg Packet
Company to N. NJ. Jones; and hence
other exceptions, ALI these exceptions
were argued by Mr.. VIM. S. Flippin and
Mr.. VIM. N. Sneed. Mr.. Flippin strongly
insisted that bar leases had nothing to
do with commerce aud navigation, and
in no sense could be considered mari.
time liens. He did not object to the
G. o. D. claims. for be thought that they
we're not only maritime lines, but we're Of
q highly creditable character. he iu.
sisted, further, that the construction OF
our lien law, under which a number Of
libels and intervening claims were fled,
had been, as he believed, wrongly de.
cided by our Supreme Court. The cap.
ton to that act read, IAN act for the
benefit Of mechanics" and n~otwithstand-
ing the Admiralty Court ought to BE-
governed by the decisions Of that court,
in all matters Of construction relating to
purely local law, he commended that the
rule was different in matters which con.
cerued the Admiralty. He argued that
as to supplies and repairs bought 10 the
home port the law presumss they were
purchased on the credit Of the owners,
unless the fact Of want Of credit or in.
solvency be shown, accompanied by q
contract to charge the boat. he was
here interrupted by Judge Trigg, who
was understood to say that in order to
charge the vessel in such cases, a
special contract must be proven.
Mr.. Sneed insisted hat his clients
stood upon a better footing than others
because they we're provided for under the
deed Of trust to Jones; that they had mol
filed libels, but were in court p%etitiouinG
for the surplus under the fortythird rule
He denied that the G. 0. D. claims were
liens. Both gentlemen cited a number
of authorities to support their positions
The case involves u considerable ameun
of money, and will be argued by a mum
Der of other lawyers. Judge T. W
Brown followed this morning, and it il
expected that Mr.. C. f. Vance aud Dis
trict Attorney Murray for the defendants
and Mr.. Warrinner, Mr.. Hutchinson, Mr.
Jordan, Mr.. W. X. Poston. Mr.. Turley
Mr.. Lyles and perhaps others for the dill
ferent parties will speak upon the queo
lions raised. We shall endeavor 10 to
morrow issue to give another notice 0
the debate.

The United States Supreme Caurt yes
terday rendered decisions in the cases of
/. K. Brown, wherein the question as to
what is known as the front foot assess.
ment' aud Moth and Tenth ward pro
perty liability was decided. The court
holds in the former case that the proper.
ty owners, who paid front foot assess.
ments, are not liaole for the mandamus
tax levied to satisfy a judgmentin favor
OF L. d Brown against the city of Mem
phis. In the other case the court holds
that property in the Ninth and Tenth
wards is not liable, and also exempt from
this tax. This, because at the tim. the
debt was created, these wards were not
a part nor within the corporate limit OF
the city. They we're subsequently ad.
mitted, but with the proviso that the
property should not be taxed for the al.
ready existing debts Of the city. In the
Ninth and Tenth wards case, styled Brown
VS.. the City Of Memphis, error to Circuit
Court for the Western District Of Ten.
nessee, the following opinion waO given /:
In this case the court holds that the
court below was right in refusing 10 in.
clude among the properly to be taxed to
pay the assessments for local improve
ments the property Of certain wards
which formed no part of the city at the
date Of contract under which the debt
was contracted. Affirmed.

LETTER FROM BLACK'S STATION.

BLACKS STATION, February 4, 1878.
A few days ago we had fall of sleet and
snow, three inches deep. Above this place it
was much deeper. 1t left the ground quite
soft and spongy. The highways are almost
impossible, and the streams are much swollen,
by the melting snow and ice. There has been
but very little cotton sold here since Christ
mas, owing to the low price of the staple and
the bad roads. Consequently, business is not

A party Of revenue officials who were nosing
around last week, found distillery in opera

Whitakers mountain, supposed to be the
property of Peter Mabury. The only occu.
pant found, when the officials entered the
house, was a negro who was sound asleep.
When aroused he claimed to know nothing
about the distillery, or how he ever came there
himself. The distillery and all its appurte-
nances, were destroyed the hogsheads Of still
beer were burst open and the contents poured
upon the ground, and the colored gentleman,
who had by this time been fully aroused
from his comatose state found himself march
ing on to Spartanburg Jail, where he is at
present.
VIC. Roberts, of Whitaker Station, is
said to be an informant in behalf of the Gov
ernment. Some violent demonstrations, with
threats, have been shown towards him, which =,
to say the least, is an imprudent course. The
law must he adhered to; and let this section,
which suffered so from indiscrininate arrest
under the Enforcement laws, learn that pru-
