And weave once more the tender daisy chain,

| And creeping DER the ground
Mellow sunbeams pleasant!

All IN the grasses and gray leaves together
And see how eyes shine out from fair young faces
In gentians blue, that catch the thistles

For here grow sweet all gracious things to give.

sion yesterday with Judge Braarcrd on
the bench. The only case of any i'm
portancs was that of Swan, Clark & Co.
VS.. Henry c. Robinson, asignee Of Tho
mas j. Graves in bankruptcy. W. C.
Spruance, Esq, was counsel for plain
tiff and J. Il. Hoffecker, RFa., for de-
fendant, while G. B. Lore, R:a., and
Joshua Marris, Esq, represented par
ties whose interests were involved with
those OF the defendant. The case has
been one of long standing and involves
$4,000 which the plaintiffs claim right
ly belongs to them, and which was se--
cured by Graves in the Aid Loan Asso-
citation.
Mr.. Hoffecker made q motion to dis
miss complainants' bill on the ground
OF want Of prosecution. In defense of
his motion he argued that the case had
been Of two years' standing, and thas
the plaintiffs had never as yet made
any move toward prosecuting it.
MIR. Spruance resisted the motion,
saying that the delay had not been
wholly the fault of the plaintiffs. A
heated colloquy sprang up, and Mr..
spruance scored his opponent in oauS-
tic style.
The Court made the rule peremptozy
upon the cemplainants that they weTs
to take testimony without further de-
lay, and fixed July Goth as the day
upon which testimony in behalf of tho
complainant will be taken before U. s.
Commissioner S. R. Smith.
Court was in session short time this
morning, during which time the Mar
shal's accounts we're acted upon in due
manner.
