A romantic wedding came of at Calliope

lage blacksmith, aged 80 advertised for a
wife. Matilda McCliste, aged 40, of St.
Cloud, Mimi, answered the advertisement
On Tuesday she arrived with two trunks
and other baggage, and at once proceeded TO
business. She insisted rs a preliminary to
the nuptial festivities that her prospective
husband should deed her his house and lot
worth about 500. As an argument in favor
Of this marriage settlement, she made the
winning suggestion, in her dimde,9J blush
ing way, that the old man might die soon.
and in that case the property W. uld pay her
for her trouble. After the wedding the
youth Of the village serenaded the happy
couple. The indignant bridegroom refused
to stand treat until a horse fiddle was added
to the orchestra, and then the cold man"
rolled out two barrels Of apples TO the boys.

recommend that the reports of tbs
Deputies be referred To a special committee
to carefully consider the obstacles In the
way OF an efficient working cot this plan of
dispensing light. The present system
makes il the duty of the Deputies 10 visit
all the Lodges in the territory assigned
him, and il Is made the duty ui tae Lodges
/ TO compensate him. But ID he goes unin-
/ vited, it often happens that there is no one
+ to receive him, or he is looked upon more
as an intruder than us an officer 81 tbis
Grand Lodge, and the Lodge may be un.
willing or unable TO compensate him for Ibis
services.
Brethren, l commend this highly impor-
tant subject TO your most serious attention.
My own opinion is, that the Deputy
should not be required to visit at their per
sonal expense, where they are not invited.
and yet there should be some plan devised
of reaching Lodges which need. but will NOT
seek instruction. Would it not be we'll for
few years, TO test the system of District
Schools, that have proven successful ia
several Grand Jurisdictions Let the Dis
trlcts remain rs at present constituted. and
let the Deputy appoint suitable time and
a central place for a School OF Instruction iu
his District. Then make il the duty of the
Master and Wardeus aud the privilege Of
all Masons in good standing, to attend said
school contribution of from five to ton
dollars from each Lodge will COMPENSATE
the Deputy for his time, and in addition let
his actual and necessary expenses for travel
and board be paid out of the Grand Lodge
treasury.
The difficulties in the way of Dcputiesap-
ply with greater force to the office of Grand
Lecturer. No brother possessing the rcqui-
site capacity and skill for this highly inn
portant office, can afford to abandon his farm
or his desk for any compensation that could
possibly be expected under the present svs-
tenn. The office should either De abolished
pr made effective. We cannot expect any
brother to devote his time and attention rs
Is duties without adequate compensation
Experience has shown that the Lodges are
lot willing, separately, 10 do this. II the
Trand Lodge is unwilling, then the office is
me more of Tournament than use Ny opin-
ON Is, that it would hc a wise thing in the
frand Lodge to guarantee your Grand Lee
urer certain sum annually, ON condition
hat within a specified period he shall visit
nd instruct every Lodge i'm this Grand Iu-
lsdction. \ per capita contribution of from
IN to fifteen cents will provide the necessa-
Y funds. And thus the stronger and better
ltormed Lodges would help to sustain and
llighten those which have had fewer oppor-
luitles Of receiving instruction.

OF MISSISSIPPI,
In the House Of Representatives., Tuesday,
January Is. 1881.

Jahuary AOs AooAs
On the bill Oh R. No 1922 to facilitate the
refunding of the national debt, as amended.
.>
Mr. Chalmers said:
Mr.. CHIARMAN-A few days since | am
nounced that l was opposed to the funding
bill then and that should vote against any
proposition then pending to refund for the
reasons then giveni but so many of my
objections have been removed by the bill
as now amended that l shall vote for it.
The option of the Government to pay the
debt is retained and the dangers of its per-
petuation therefore removed. The new
I bonds and certificates are to be issued upon
precisely the same terms as the bonds now
outstanding and the right to pay in silver
| thereby preserved. Again, full provision
is made for the use of the surplus coin in
the Treasury in payment of the bonded
I debt, though this is not made as mandatory
as ! would have preferred it to be- and this
| | regard as q very important step i'll the
right direction. But the new feature of the
bill introduced by what Is known as Mr..
Carlisle's amendment is the one that CONS
mends it most to my approval.
Under the law it now stands the ma
tional banks could, by combination, with
draw all their bonds, almost in day, by
placing the same amount of greenbacks in
the Treasury, and thus not only fearfully
/ contract the Out itANc tue OHAtcO
/ States Government alone responsible for the
national bank circulation. 1t puts stop
also to the constant speculation that has
| been going on by the national banks in the
bonds which they pretended 10 have depos-
tied for the security of their circulation.
When bonds went up they deposited green>
backs and drew out their bonds for sale
When bonds went down they deposited new
bonds and drew a new issue of national
bank circulation. Thus they have not only
| specalated in bonds, but while denouncing
all attempts 70 increase the circulation
by Treasury notes they have been increasing
the number of national bank notes The
! Treasurer's report shows that by this opera
4 ton one bank had nearly doubled the
amount Of its notes in circulation that it
was entitled 70 have by the original law.
And with the law as il now stands 1t Is clear
that the national banks, which were created
to assist the Government in dispOsing Of its
i bonds, can defeat any scheme Of refunding
that does not suit them and dictate their
h own terms TO the Government, The elect
i and Importance Of this amendment has been
well described BY leading New York pa.

The following Tabular Statement, pre-

for information of the craft generally
throughout the State. 1t is a grand ex-

Another gratifying result of the organ

VOLUME Xiv.

/ 1t is the illegal conduct of the debtor, in
/ making or attempting TO make an assign
ment Of his property prohibited by law, and
therefore invalid, which subjects him To the
harsh and summary proceeding H.,
Such assignments are also lhVaIid
and will be annulled, except only
when the assignee can show he
has parted with present value for
it, in entire ignorance of the debtors illegal
act, or illegal intent.
If unfair" in the statute means
less than " illegal, " or ''iraudulant,'
it would follow that an attachment
would be justified on account OF the prefer
ence, and yet the debtor would be guilty OF
no violation of law; and when the assign
tnent itself is attacked, it must be held
valid, and the parties to it entirely inno-
cent II would further follow from this
construction that the Legislature, in its
anxiety to discountenance the exercise of an
acknowledged legal right to prefer one
creditor to others, had provided that wien
such right was exercised, the preference
thus given should not only remain unim-
peachable. but should be the occasion by
which another creditor could secure Ike
valid preference for his debt by first levy
ing his attachment on the debtors property
not included in the assignment. \ con
structiJu which would lead to this absurd
and unjust result can not be the true one.
That the construction we adopt renders
the clause in question with intent to give
an unfair preference" surplusage, is true.
Though this is difficulty, it Is less than
the difficulties to be encountered by the OPP
posite construction. 1t Is not the first IN
stance in which the trainers of statutes, IN
order 10 make their intent clear, have
obscured it by unnecessary repeuuons or
unmeaning additions. For this reason, this
clause was omitted from the Code Of 1850,
which, with this omission, leaves the law on
this subject exactly as it was before its adop-
ton.
The charges given to the jury were in ac-
cordauce with this view, and are correct.
The evidence was contradictory, and
while the prepouderance was probably in
favor of sustaining the attachment, the
Jury believed the contrary, and we can not
say their verdict was so clearly wrong as to
authorize US to set it aside.
Judgment affirmed.

Appeal from the Circuit Court of Tippah
County, Hon. J. w. c. Watson, Judge.
The term of the Supreme Court COM
menced the Sd Monday in October, 1880.
The 1st Monday in January, 1881, was the
day fixed for taking up the docket of the
Sd District. Tippah County, being in said
District, this motion was made by appellee
to dismiss the case, because no transcript
was filed within the time required.
The opinion is given in full.
CHALMERS, c. J.
The appeal was prayed before the circuit
clerk of Tippah county on the 18th of
November, 1880. No transcript of the
record having been applied for, a certificate
Of that fact is presented to US by the
appellee and we are asked to docket and
dismiss the case in accordance with the
provisions of 8 14l6 of the Code of 1880
Under the act of 1874, (Session Acts, p
27) the appellant who sued out his appeal
after term of this court had commenced,
or within less than ten days gifts commence
ment, had the option to make his writ re-
turnable to the dav during the current term
fixed by law or order of court for taking up
the docket of his district, or to make it re-
turnable to the first day of the term next
ensuing thereafter
This is changed by the provisions of2 1902
of the Code of 1880, by which two return
days oc equal dignity are established for
this court, to>wit the first day of the term,
and the day fixed for taxing up tine docket
of the district from which Tue appeal oo.-4e-.
Inashauch, therefore, las an appellant can not
pass a return day, but must MAKE -zl ia GIIt
to the next ensuing one that is
prac ticable, it follows that if the appeal is
prayed after a term of this court has COM
menced or within ten days before it will COM
mence, it must be returnable to the day for
taking up the docket of the district, unless
less than ten days will intervene before that
day.
The appeal, therefore, in this case was
to the LIST Monday in January
1881, that being the day fixed by law for
taking up the docket of the third district
No transcript of the record having been pre-
sented here at that time, and we being now
advised that none was applied for below,
the motion to docket and dismiss is sustain
ed.
Where an appeal in ehancery pro-
ceeding is prayed and granted in open
court it is returnable to the first day Of
our term, even though less than ten days
will elapse before the commencement of that
term, because in such case no citation to the
opposite party is necessary. " T. Hospital
v Kn0r, 81 Miss. 600 But, of course, if
our term has already commenced, then, even
in this class off cases, the appeal must be re-
turnable to the day fixed for taking up the
docket of the district.
Motion sustained
