BIZ. Frank F. Cole, a money-1ender doing
business in Room No. Reaper Block, was ar
rcsted yesterday On capias issued by the Sher-
If ut the instance OF Mrs. Hattie N. Hamilton.
The charge was one Of trespass, and the circum-
stances under which the action is brought give
the case a peculiar interest. The advice OF the
worldly-wise Polonius to hts son, "Neither q
borrower nor lender be,'' may be- all very
sound rs applied to books. stew-paDs, bowl Of
sugar, or scuttleful OF coal, but some occa-
sions do arise when one is driven to borrow, and
that, too, at a great sacrihce OF personal
pride and social comfort. The money-lender
stands ready to accommodate the uwary, and
it is only those who have had the bitter ex-
perience OF knowing what loan from pro-
fessional moncy-lender occasionally means who
will be able to symDathize with the complain
ant in the present case.
Mrs. Hamilton is the widow OF a soldier who
was in the Union army, and abe lived in u three
story and basement ec2s: On E!dridGc court,

supporting herself by keeping boardcrs. Her
statement is as follows: On the 18th OF july
iast 81 she applied to Mr. Cole for loan OF $500
rte Of er cen TO pay interest at the
mortgage on her furniture, which was
valued at about $1,000. For the first three
| months she paid her interest in coupon notes OF
| so each, aud then ec:tng on the adyice Of
| friend, who bad told her that the exaction OF
| such enormous interest was unlawful, she de-
clined to pay Mr.. Cote the fourth fifth, and
sixth installments. On the 14th OF January,
notes 1ell due. Mrs. Hamilton rendered to Cole,
through Mr. ]. T. McCord, tile full amount OF
the principal, with legal interest thereon as the
rate cf II per cent. AE. Cole declined
| as originally agreed upon. Mrs. Hamilton
sought advice from her attorney, Mr.. Charles
s. Cameron, who recommended her to 60 home,
and again tender Cole the money. "Don't al
Low him to enter yonr honse," he said, and
SEQ that you have witnesses with you when you
tender the money,,' Mrs. Hamilton went home,
but only to find that every bit Of furniture had
been ripped out Of the house, jammed into c1-
press wagons, AM! cartcd to the furniture
store Of Hale Brothers. The house was
and: and the oily thing LETT was one bed
OF, which lay lady, Mrs. Crttenden, In the
pangs Of childbirth. The shock to this lady
was such that yesterday her physicians had
given u2 hopes OF her recovery:
Mrs. Hamil0 was compelled to seek refuge
in neighoor'5 house, her home was broken up.
her boarders scattered, and her furniture, tue
accumulation Of several years, damaged to far
more than the extent OF the loan upon it. 4
writ OF repleyin was at once issued, but when
the Deputy Sheriff made the demand it was re-
fused, and SO the matter rested until yes
terdar, when warrant was issued far the
arrest OF Cole. Mrs. Hamiiton's friends are
naturally indignant at.the cruelmanner in which
she claims to have been treated, and several
well-known citizens have protIercd her their
services Is bondsmen.~ The case will come be-
fore the Circuit Court. In the meantime Mrs.
Hamilton says she has suffered injury which
NAV be irfeparablc. And the unfortunate lady
mentioned above is sand to be in danger OF los
ing her lffe.' Mrs. Il. lays her damages at
$1,000.

The action of the House on Monday gave
strong indication that there was desire 10 go
into general legislation, and particularly so
on the part Of the Democrats. They have real
lied the fact that some legislation is required
in relation to the financial interest Of the coun-
try that the people are demanding, and if
their demands are allowed TO go unnoticed the

rors and evils in this country as in Others, may

Lamartine who said, "Revolulions never go
backwards" 1t was revolution, controlled
by the worst element that ever cursed this
country, which loaded our statute books with
burdensome and unwholesome laws. 1t is
revolution which this hour and day is de-
mandiag a repeal OF these odious measures
II is revolution based upon the great princi-
pies of self preservation, demanding such leg
islaiioh as will give relef-such laws as will
restore prosperity and best promote the public
good In government like ours all power
and patronage flow from the people; they are
sovereigns in the land, and when their agents
fail TO obey or carry out their wishes they
have the right TO say step dOwn and out
When parties are kept together upon the sell
fishness of individuals, or rather run in their
interest, the great objects and purposes for
which they were Instituted cease, and the
eternal fitness of things declares it expedient
that other organization be instituted for the
establishment and preservation of good gov
