THE CoTToN CAsEs.-The Columbia
Register Of Thursday says: "The
= Supreme Court has decided tho cases
Of Elder vs. the Charlotte, Columbia
and Augusta Railroad and the Rail-
road Commissioners vs. the Same, the
opinion in each case being by Judge
Willard. In the case Of Elder the ver-
dict in the Trial Justices Court was
for the plaintiff. The Supreme Court
affirms the decision Of the Trial JUS
tice Court and sets aside that of tho
Circuit Court. In the case of the Rail-
road Commissioner tho Supreme Court
decided that the Act docs not afford
any means Of determining the force of
expressions heaUy articles and articles
ofmeasurenent and that those terms
must be defined by proof oftho custom
$ or practice prevailing at tile time of
tho passage of the Act. There is no
evidence in this case on which q con-
struction Of those terms can be made
in their applicationt to cotton packed
in bales. The Judgment of the court
is reversed and the case fema1ded for
further proceedipgs."-- Is difficult
to tell just what Is decided, without
seeing the opinioni iii full. Aswe ,in-
derstand the matter, the 4 Supreme
Court hold that the question whether
athing is q "heavy article or an ( FAR
ticle Of measurement is one purely of
fact, to be determined in the usual
way. In the Elder case 1t was decid
ed by Jury III favor Of the merchants,
4 and this finding is sustained by the
Supreme Court. In the Railroad
Commissioners case before Judge
Mackey there was no testimony adj
duced, and /, as we understand, the
case isSnow rsnianded to the Circuit
