The Keokuk Packet Case.

In anticipation of the rendering of the
final decree in the keokuk Northern Line
Packet case Tuesday, Judge Lindley' s
court vas pretty well filed with interested
spectators, parties to the quit and counsel.
The court was not ready. however, as the
counsel for the plaintiff had not submitted
the form of decree.
Mr.. Glover said his presence was de.
manded elsewhere aud he had wanted to
say something on the question as TO the
amount of bond to be given by the receiv-
er when it came up, hut he could not
stay then
Judge Lindley said the sum of 100000
had beeen spoken OF, but he thought that
the appointee could give $500 900 as well
as 100000, as he would be thoroughly
protected. There was another question,
which was of more importance, and that
was whether, il case OF an appeal. the
appeal would operate as supsrsedeas,
and remove the receiver.
Judge Madlll suggested that the prop
er case would be to proceed as if the
court bad rendered proper decree, and
all parties assented to it. Then, if any
questions were raised hereafter. they
could be met as they were presented, and
such action taken as the circumstances re-
quired.
Judge Lindley told them TO get their
decree ready and submit it to the other
side, and if it was satisfactory then they
might present it to him for his approval.
If they could not agree, then it might be
submitted to him and he would pass on it.
Some papers that had been inspected
by the defence were then submitted to the
court by the plaintiffs by way of sugges-
ton, and Judge Lindley, after perusing
them, said. DO you know that this is
equivalent to agreeing on a person for
receiver" which was assented to.
The papers were not fled, bat simply
submitted TO the court. with whom they
remained. 1t is understood that among
the suggestions made, three names we're
submitted by each side from which to
select receiver satisfactory to the party
proposing them, and that one name, that
of Capt. Samuel G. Club, superintendent
of the Virgins Ferry company. appeared
on both lists. The matter will probably
pot be concluded before to-morrow.-St.

The Amendment.

To the heat of the contest On the natio-
nal ticket, the people have lost sight of
the proposed amendment TO the constitu'
ton changing the terms of some of the
county officers, and providing against con-
secutive reelection for sheriff and treas
urer, these officers to hold for four years
instead of two. as now. This amendment,
if adopted, does not change the status of
the present county officers at this election,
but applies to elections from and after
1882, two years hence. 1t will save
SIS, 900 to the state. lessen the number of
elections, and simplify the method. It
is good amendment, and should be
heartily supported. For the information
of everyone we reprint the amendment
