Wing, Judge of Probate, vs. Rowe.
Rescript-By his appointment as guardian and ac-
ceptance of the trust the defendant became subject
TO the jurisdic ion of the PROBATE court upon all mat
tiers concerning the proper discharge OF bis duties
HIS settlement with his ward did not deprive the
probate court of its jurisdiction. He should have an
peared and accounted His ward had a right to be
heard in regard TO the alleged settlement, and to
show that it was not fair and just and was improp-
erly procured The defendants neglect to appear in

The presiding Judge. before whom the case was tried
without the intervention of jury ruled as matter of
law, that the men oraDdum is not part OF the note

material alteration OF the note so far as the de-
fen ant was concerned. We think this ruling cor

Largo sugar Beots.

We we're shown yesterday some very
large and tender sugar beets grown by
Mr.. A. R. Tatnall, on his fathers farm
in New Castle Hundred. The three
beets shown us weighed Is pounds and
4 ounces, and were just in the height
Of the growing season. There still re-
mains about six weeks of growing
weather for such esculents at the end
Of which time these beets would have
been monsters.
Mr.. Tatnall informs us that he has a
half an acre Of such beets and that this
is his first raising. Some " eeks ago he
took some beets to Mr.. Lea Pusey to
test. At that time they contained 60
100 per cent. of saccharine juice which
was rather extraordinary SO early in
the season. Hs is much pleased at his
effort at beet raising and hopes 1t will
be so profitable that he may be enabled
to continue at the business.

directs everything, and all that frail
humanity has TO do 10 TO trust him,
and advance his kingdom here on

of Mr.. Prices best efforts, and he
brought out some beautiful points in
illustrating his theme. At the close
of the service he announced that extra

cond Sabbath in October, and asked
the members to prepare themselves for
vigorous onslaught on the enemy Of
mankind, and victory will surely crown
their efforts. '' I.G.
