i,eubeuYiie Gazette Of Saturday evening last.
The case OF Nimick & Co. vs. the Mingo
Iron Works Co. ct al, a suit to determine
the constitutional and statutory liability
of the stockholders for the amount oil their
stock, was referred by the Court OF Jefer'
son county to J. F. Daton, Esq, as Rel
cree. The examination commenced on the
93d Of September, 1880, Mr.. Daton rem
lering his decision this morning, holding
that the stockholders who were served in
the action wero liable to the creditors for
the amount equal to the amount Of their
dividend stock.
The whole amount OF the subscribed
stock was Sl70, 600, with limit OF S250, 600.
At meeting OF stockholders held in
Wheeling, August 23rd, 1872, dividend
Of 50 per cent WAS declared, which was
turned into stock, the proceeds OF which
we're used TO build new furnace. The
Referee found that the whole amount OF
this dividend stock was $4,000, which
would make the whole amount Of stock
$3.50, 900, or S. 900 more than the $3.50, 900
allowed to be levied. On this point
Messrs. Walden & Elliott, the attorneys
for the stockholders, made plea that, as
the sum allowed by law had been over.

clients conld not be held for any part Of
the $S5,O00 stock. The Referee decided
against this plea, giving his decision in
the following language:

the Mingo Iron Works Company and its
stockholders are estopped to set up the
defence Of ultra tire,, in respect to the is-
suauce by the corporation and acceptance
by the stockholders Of SIS. 900 stock,

recover the statutory liability against the
Stockholders"

WRITER in the New York Herald, in
discussing the Senatorial situation in this
state, thus alludes to the candidacy oil
Judge John Brannon:
Jndpe Brannon, Of Weston, is vigorous
" pushed BY his friends. 1t is claimed ne
wonId have been chosen before, but Tor
the combination referred to, and he GER
tainly would have been none the less q
creditsble choice. There is no better
LAWYER in the state, and none who ia bet
Ter fitted for preIerment Of this character
but he ia little Of a politician, and his sup
por,ers do not seem to be much better
posted than their chief in political tnesse.
We presume that there is good deal oil
point in this allusion to Judge Brannon'S
lack Of "pslitical tineSse." He bears the
reputation OF man whose life has been
clean and straightforward, and such men
are, unfortunately, too ap! to be considered
as lacking in "political finesse," but In the
eyes of the people their reputation is
generally considered valuable. Political
tlposae" is only another term, as 1t is un'
derstood, for political trickery and unscru'
puIous wire pulling. The lack Of this sor|
of "Gnesse" in the Judge is really his
highest reputation, coupled as it is with
his conceded large intellectual ability and
ripe scholarship.

Fox a long time past great deal oil per-
sonal bitterness has prevailed between the
two sleubsnville daily papers, the Herald
and GassNe. To such length diditproc
that it finally eliminated in a libel suit

a formal reconciliation has taken place be-
tween Messrs. Conn and Hunter, and that
they have shaken hands "across the bloody
cbasm." This is as it should be. There
is plenty OF room in Steubenville for the
Herald and GaIete, and the men connected
with both papers have capacity for much
better work than that OF personal deIma'

that the "cruel war" ia over at last, and
now We congratulate them on their manly
reconciliation. May they live long and

THE CohrNG RUSSIAN FsrEs. present
year is to be celebrated in Russia as complet-
ing the first twenty-five years of the Czar's
reign, and the industrial exhibition which IS
to be held at Moscow in the coming May will
doubtless be as popular with the Russians as
even that of 1872. But such an anniversary
brings with it an ominoas suggestion OF the
grim old proverb, Evil awaits the Gar Of
twenty five years." which every Russian his
tory has so strangely verified. Ivan the Ter
rible's first twenty five years were brilliantly
successful, but after 1868 came the loss of all
his Western conquests, the successive deaths
of three wives, the marder of his son and
heir, and the Fastening of frightfal disease
upon himself Peter the Greats Turkish re-
verses, and the deplorable death of his son
Alexis, came afSer the tweRty fifth year of
his reign. The twenty sixth of Alexander Is
ravaged st. Petersburg with fearful inunda-
ton, while formidable plot against himself,
and his own death came year later. In the
twenty-sixth year of Nicholas began the ia
trigues which led to the Crimean war; and the
present Car, now just about to pass the peril
Gus limit, sees his wife dying by inches, his
throne undermined oy rebellion, and foreign
war looming on the horizon.

THE ICICLE HARVEST.

The editor of the Truckee Republican is, as
ra,e, matter fact man. In last week
issue he jumped astride of Pegasus and al
lowed the animal to charge along over the
country as follows:
The Republican says: The icicles are in full
bloom in Truckee.
"What shall the harvest beF
North San Juan Independent.
The harvest of the icicles is only partially
appreciated. The pure crystalline flowers of
ice and snow which form the Winter wreath
of the Sierra have a harvest richer than wav-
ing grain fields, of rCstliug ripe corn, or OF
bountiful vineyards. Richer than these, be-
cluse all these are dependent upon the ic'c 'es
aad all are included ia the icic'es harvest.
The pe-rly petals of the icicle blossoms are the
tiny drops of water which hide away in the
moGa ain side to escape the war kisses OF
the Spring sunshine. The cool trout brooks
that offer resi:ul repose to the tourist or hun.
ter; the ad rills that mois ca the garden,
the meadow and the farm; the swift stream,
that fill the sluiees and hydraulic pipes of the
M ner; the broad rivers that float the inland
commerce of the Golden State, all, all are the
harvest of the iccles. The storm clouds Of
the Pacific are waited to the crests of our sum
rnit land, to be caught and stored away in the
fsathery snow-crystals and adanantins layers
of ice. Every pine tree is aden with pendants
and spanclss; every cliff and gorge ha1 its
srot'oes fall of graceful stalactites; every roof
and gable is adorned with myriads of icicles.
After The storms are forgo ten, after the
thirsty valleys have drunk up the wntry rain
drops, she icicles begin to yield their treasured
stores of moisture. Califolr ia greatest wealth

but the harvest of the icicles of the Sierra.

THE PAPER COMBINATION.

During the p Ut f,w months the price OF pa
mar has ri,en in market about 80 per cent.
While the labor cost of manufacturing news
paper has not materially advanced, and while
it can be pro6tably manufactured for cents
q pound, and but for the duty could be i'm
ported fer cents a pound, the mills In this
country have put their price to 9, 10, IL cents
and even talk of making it IL cents or more.
Thus combination of paper mills has been
formed which places heavy tax on the intel
ipencs of the community for no adequate rea-
son. The present high price of printing pa
per, if persisted in, will necessltate an advance
in all classes of periodicals and books. School
books, the cost of which is alrerdy burden
scarcely to be borne, will be higher. The ad
yanced price of periodicals will reduce their
circulation, thus working injury to both pub
fishers and readers. The publishers of the
leading papers in the East have been COM
pelled to raise the subscription price of their
Journals in order to meet this advance. In
some Of the large New York Offices the ad-
vance in paper will make difference of 800
600 to the publishers. Every man woman ana
child who can read is more or less interested
in this matter There is now bill before
Congress aiming to remove all duty from print
paper and the materials used in its manufac-
ture. This bill should sdrely pass and the in
PRODUCTION of cheap paper in the United States
of foreign manufacture, will drive the mil
combina ion to che wall, and cause the manlp
ulstors to reap the reward of their cupidity.
Congressman Daggett will actively support
this bill in Congress.
