The court below had decided defendant

proof showed that Pugh had used the word
damn and that such language was pro-
fame and vulgar, against which the in

the ground that proper notice had not

THE WESTERN UNION.

The Suit to Restrain Payment Of Dividends
on Alleged Illegal Shares Argued.
INV YORK, Dec 26.-The suit of VIM. S.
Williams on behalf of himself and others
similarly interested, against the Western
Union Telegraph company and others,
came up to-day. The suit was brought to
set aside the agreement made by the
Western Union Telegraph company,
Atlantic d Pacific Telegraph company and
others. The suit is for an injunction to
prevent the payment of dividend upon
certain stock. Counsel for the Western
Union company read the affidavit of A. R.
Brewer, secretary, to the effect that the
transfers of the stock upon the company's
books were so numerous it would be i'm
possible to made distinction betwe en- the
stock which it is said was legally
issued, and that which it was
claimed was illegally issued. Counsel cor
tended that the stock was valid and the
court could not restrain the company from
paying dividends upon it. The contract
which has been entered into between the
three companies was binding upon all
parties, even if it should be set aside. A
dividend having been declared, each stock
holder could begin an action to recover it
if not paid. Counsel also read an afida-
Wit of President Green, who asserts that
all actions of defendants regarding the
consolidation agreement, were justified by
law. Relying upon the decision of Judge
Truax, the whole number of shares of
capital stock as increased was issued with

tributed, and were at present in the hands

'THE silent man" has essentially changed
his base, and is given to much talk nova
days, perhaps too much for his own good.
Gen. Grant opens his mouth often, if he
does not, like Mrs. Partington, "always put
his foot in it." He seems to think his
words will have great weight with this
generation, and hence not to live barren
life INDUCES in much gable on nearly every
possible subject. His latest deliverance is
opposition ''to the great army of pension
ers." He says he is in favor of legislation to
give additional compensation to those who
lost limb, or were otherwise mutilated
in the war, but he has "no sympathy with
the great army of pensioners who are in
just as good bodily health now as if they
had never participated in the war.
He ought, then, to have 'no
sympathy with himself in his
efforts to get on the retired pension list
of the army, at an annual pension of
from fifteen to twenty thousand dollars
year. He certainly is in as good bodily
health now, as before the war, and per-
haps better, if what is alleged is true, that
he is more temperate now than then. No
objection can be taken in regard to his po-
sition in favor of ex-soldiers who lost limbs
or were otherwise mutilated, but his hos
tility to ''the great army of pensioners" is
without excuse or justification. It is not
likely that all on the pension list who are
not visibly bodily manned are unworthy
of their country's benefcence. Immense
numbers came from the war broken in
health, and with liabilities of various
kinds fastened on them for
life. To designate them as
"a great army of pensioners, who are in
just as good bodily health now as if they
had never participated in the war" is
simply unfeeling and brutal. To as
sumo this is to impeach the integrity of
the pension Office with lack of fidelity in
examining applications for persons. It
is not pleasant to see this once general of
the army so lacking in sympathy
for the disabled soldiers who
fought for the Union. Enriched
himself, by gifts and bensfactions from
gushing, rich and fawning parasites, be-
yond the reach or fear of want, or the
necessity of engaging in any employ
ment, he deserves the severest, stern est re-
buke, not only from his old associates in
arms, but from all just and right minded
people, for his stolid insensibility and in
difference to the sufferings of others.

Mr.. Tracy spoke but few words, and was
often interrupted with Kisses, as was the

II take no stock in any idea striking at God

naming portion clapping hands and shout
ing "Glory to God," 'Halellujshv' "There
goes Rum" etc. Judge Davis argued that
the Sunday law was in favor of the work

other time is passed over in silence.
There is difficulty in refuting the as
sertions of those who pretend to forstell
the weather since their predictions fire.
quently relate to occurrences which are
almost sure to prove in part as foretold.
Thus the prediction of early snow in the
Northwest in August or September is a
very safe one to make, if one claims the
right to test it by the weather reported
at any one tow in the Northwestern
British territory. Similarly the predic-
ton of a storm in March is quite certain
to be fulfilled. During the past ten
years tho number of storms which pre-
vailed in this country in March has aver
aged twelve, varying from ten in 1881 and
1882 to eighteen in 1879. Some of these
have been very severe, and it rarely hap
pens that tho month Of March passes in
any year without the occurrence of one or
more storms accompanied by the high
winds upon the Atlantic coast. Indebted
ly in March 1883, there will be storms
of some severity, and some persons
will be found who will notice the storm
which comes nearest to March IL. and
claim that Mr.. Virgins prediction was
verified, only that it was . day late, or a
day early. or was not quito Is severe as
anticipated, or moved in slightly different
path, or in some other way differed in de-
tail from that described, but that it was
sufficiently near to entitle the author to a
high rank as prophet. Lot no one OK
pect his prediction to be fulfilled to the
letter-it is safe to say it will not be; but
let every one expect that the coming March
will, like its predecessors in the memory
of man, be characterized by storms Of
greater or less severity.
Too severe rebuke cannot be inflicted
