A TRAP FOR SEVEN.


AN. INCIDENT OF TRAVEL on THE dn

Catch rat in trap and he will

can't rely on him. It's according to
the trap. In the heavy stage-coach..as
we roll out Of Leadyille, are seven men,
One is an army officer who has, hall
dozen scars prove his bravery, Cut
off from his command on the i,lains
last summer BY score OF Indians, he
intrenched himself and fought the
band off until help arrived. Two OF
the others are desperadoes, who have
killed their men Three of the others
are stalwart miners each armed with
two revolyers, aud they look as If they
would prove ugly customers in a fight.
The seventh, man might do some
shooting OH a pinch, buthe hopes there
will be nopinch. Inthe crowd ars ten
revolvers, two dersingers, three repeat
ing rifles, and fouror live bowie-knives
and there is perfect good ,Ieeliug as the
stage roofs along. ltis tacitly UNDER
stood that the army Captain is to as
snme command in case the coach is
attacked. aud that all are to keep cool
and fire to kill ,i''''''' ~ I" '''' ''.

We cannot believe that the SUI
preme Court-when the matter is
brought before it, as it will be-can
possibly nullify the will of the people
expressed at the ballot-box and in
the letter of the Constitution, and be-
cause the State Capitol, at the seat OF
government, was not plastered, de-
clare that it was lawful for the Gov
ernor to assemble the Legislature in
extra session at New Orleans.
Baton Rouge has complied with the
constitutional Requirement. Her $685.
900 have been paid in and placed on
the new Capitol.
In all justice, she is and ought to
be the seat Of government.
We hope that Governor McEnery,
for his own sake, as well as for the
welfare of the State-which we are
sure he has at heart-will reverse his
hasty action, or decision, and that he
will not expose the people to a costly
disappointment by holding the extra
session at New Orleans.
1t is the constitution which desig'
mates the seat of government and no.
the Governor, who is it's chief Execu
tive officer.

brsy day and night in preventing their
depredations upon our tributaries. They
are anxious to have some definite bound
aries to our creeks to guide them in repe'-
ling these trcspasses. We think undoubt-
eddy the line established by the decision
of our Court in similar case, should be
the controlling one until some other be
established by an adverse decision. We
think Judge Boswell has arrived at this
conclusion, after seeking advice. and viii
so advise the officers of the police s'oop.
The law of 1880, very clearly prohibits
the taking Of oysters with scoop, dredgs
or similar instrument in any Of the waters
of this State, after he 18th of April either
with or without license. The waters of
the Maryland tributaries to the Potomac
are undoubtedly the waters Of this State,
over which she has exc 'usive Jurisdiction,
and to which the prohibitory force of her
laws extend. This was the exact point
ruled in Rayner's case, and the Court then.
after an exhaustive investigation, decided
what constitutes the boundaries of the
waters OF this creek to which the States
exclusive jurisdiction extends. Uudsubt-
eddy, therefore, any one found dredging
within these boundaries now, should be
convicted of violation of the oyster laws
of the State. The taking of oysters in the
waters of the Potomac with dredges after
the 18th of April, is also prohibited by
Act of 1880, but, as the State has not tx
elusive jurisdiction over the waters of the
Potomac. that law is not operative until
the State of Virginia shall approve it, and
enact similar prohibition These Of
tenders are at best therefore, when
within in wa.ers of the Potomac.
taking advantage of legal tech
nicality to violate The laws Of the
State. and we think that prompt and rig
orous measures should be adopted in deal
ing with them when they intrude upon
Dur tributary waters. |

Oyste rmen Arrested.
On Wednesday morning last, the Off
GERS Of he oyster police slsop Katie Hines
arrested Capt. Wilson Of the sloop Cooke,
Of Cris6rld, Nd, found dredging within
tho waters Of Port Tobacco creek, and
brought him before Justice Boswell for .
hearing. Capt. Haslip, xhs made the
arrest, charged that the offending boat
was about two hundred yards within the
line established by Judge Brent iu the
Kaynor case. The offending captain adj
mIttsd that he was ut the point charged
~ Capt. Haislip, but plead that he was
wholly ignorant that he was ,respassing
upon The waters Of tributary. Judge
Boswell entertained some doubts ss to tho
exact bearing Of the exis- ing laws upon
tho waters in question, and also a. to
whether the line established by Judge
Brent should be . sufficient one for him
to base . conviction uppn in this case
and throwing these doubts in the prison
er's favor, without taking Capt. HAislips
evidence, released him. The Judge at the
same time informed the prisoner that he
should read the laws more carefully, and
ask the advice of counsel; and if his
doubts upon these points were removed
he wsu.d deal very rigidly with offenders
taken in the same locality hereafter and
he advised Capt. Wilson to be very care
full not to be taken there again, which the
Capt. assured him be would not do.
The officers Of the sloop state that, since
the season has expired in Chesapeake
