 A Hovey.
 This court came in yesterday morning at 10 o'clock.
 The demurrer in the case against Gay Brothers for selling books and giving away presents with them was overruled in the Superior Court yesterday morning by Judge Hoyey. 5 The cases of State vs. George B. Meigs and Edward M Sherman of Guilford, charged with selling liquor without a license, were to have been tried but were postponed, the State being apparently satisfied that they had no case. The liquors of these parties were seized and afterward suit was brought for a violation of the license law, Guilford being no-license town. The grand juror who brought the complaint was John w.. Norton, and Judge Lynde Harrison sat in judgment on the case. The defendants re- fused toplead under advice of counsel and a plea of not guilty was entered by order of the court The accused were found guilty, fined and took an appeal. Soon after it was ascer- tained by defendants' counsel that the MT. Norton was not grand juror, not having been reelected These facts being made known to the state's attorney he ordered q no1le in the cases Now there is talk of a civil suit for damages on the part of the de- fendants. ! Judge Munson, of Seymour, argued for 8 postponement of the case against Matthew Ward, of Fairfield county, charged with re- ceiving a horse stolen from Southbury, knowing it to be such. The case was post poned at the January term. Judge Hovey decided that the case must be ready this morning.
