Nicely a MiIIlgan Va. the Chicago, Texas a
mesican Central Railroad Company, at aI
IN The district court yesterday morning,
Special Judge w. Is. Gano presiding, q
judgment was rendered In favor Of Nicely
% Miligan vs.. the Chicago, Texas& Mexican
Central railroad company, and the Anglo
American Land and Claim associations Of
Chicago Illinois, for the sum Of $27 1882.
The plaintiffs filed their suit on TIM LIST day
of April, 1882, in the district court of this
county for the sum of 500, 1912, alleging AS
contractors they had performed for the de-
PENDANTS labor and work and furnished ma
terial in the construction of the Chicago,
Texas IL Mexican Central railway company
from the city of Dallas to the town of Gle
burne, Johnson county, Il distance of fifty
three miles, that this work was not en-
braced in the written contract with the
road, but was done under the orders of its
superintendent, j. Il. Odell, and under
the immediate directions of chief and
assistant engineers Of said road.
The defendant charged fraud on the part of
plaintiffs, and also plead ultra wires ON the
part OF its officers and general denial, and
payment and offsets amounting to SIS, 416.-
So. This cause came on for trial on the 18th
of june Judge George N. Aldridbe being
disqualified, w. B. Gano was chosen by
consent of the parties as special judge to
try the case), when both parties announced
ready for trial, since which time it has been
on trial until Saturday morning last, July
l, when the arguments of counselwe con-
cluded and the cause submitted to the court
for for its judgment-a Jury having been
waiyed-who took the same under advise
ment and rendered judgment for plaintiffs
as above stated. The plaintiff admitted the
payments made by the defendant for plain
tifls since the filing of their suit, and ie-
covered the entire amount claimed
by them, save $192.02, differ
ence caused in the chief engineers
report and the one made by William
Waite, assistant engineer, to the sub-con-
tractors, Waller &c Manner, to whom they
bad paid as per assistant engineers esti-
mate. This cause was submitted by Nicely
& Milligan by their attorneys to the audit
ing committee appointed by the defend
ants to settle all claims against the road
and gone into, and after two days invcsti-
CATION came suddenly to an end, the COM
mittee refusing to go any further, and it
was reported that there was large fraud
perpetrated by some one upon the COM
pany. The plaintiffs in this case have re-
lied mainly upon the evidence of the Off
GERS of the company, and have proven every
allegation of their petition, refuting the
charge Of fraud. Plaintiffs were ably repre-
scented by A. w. Nowlin, w. B. & G. G.
Wright; the defendants by Colonel ]. B.
Simpson and Judge A. II. Field, who
fought every inch of ground closely, and
the results are as above stated.

OFFICIAL CORRUPTION.
A Rich Vein of Official Corruption I'm

A Rich Vein of Official Corruption I'm.
earthed by the Department of Justice.
A few weeks, since, an officer from the
department of justice, at Washington,
made tour of this state and now the re.
suits of his visit are beginning to be mani,
tested. 1t was the general impression that
the representative of Uncle Sam was after
the postmasters alone, but it now trans
pires that he was sent out to look
after the United States marshals and
their deputies. He did not dig
but very little, before he unearthed rich
vein of official criminalities that bids fair
to pan out beyond the most sanguine anti
cipations of Uncle Samuel. The United
States marshals and their deputies will
have to give strict account of their actions
and the latter will be required to answer
some very pertinent questions. 1t is said
that the grandest frauds upon the
part of some of the deputy United
States marshals have been traced, and
that the government will vigorously pros
ecute the parties. A HERALD reporter had
q conversation with Federal official yes.
terday, who stated that while the charge
was not general, yet it included a great
many deputies who had drawn
pay by ringing into their ac-
counts false charges. On investigation
it appears that money has been paid for
fictitious guards as put in by officers, as
well as for mileage never travelled, and 9TH
er work never performed. Already several
deputy marshals have skipped Il G country
and it is rumored that arrests will follow in
the next few DAYS

ABOVE AND BELOW THE CLOUDS.

ABOVE AND BELOW THE CLOUDS.
As II countless shepherds had driven their
flock, Nd from the valleys and paused to
rest upon the crest of the mountain, the newly
washed feeces gliStcnjng like snow upon the
hillsides, so the mist of early ymorninG lay thick
and white upon the SUBMITS of Lookout MIS-
sion Ridge. and the natural guardians of never
to-be-forgotten Chattanooga.
With the rising of the sun the mists lifted
and foated softly away, rs if on angel wings,
revealing all almost endless eXpanse OF land
scspe. SluCgishIythe river crept by a ripping
rvthm of ease and peace The mighty hills
stood like sentinels over countless miles Of
country. From their tops could be seen Ten
nessee. Georgia. Alabama, and in the distance
BIue Ridge and Bald Peak and the shadowy
outlines of Kings Mountain.
The dissolving of the mists revealed also
sterner lines than these. The sides of the
mountains were broken and scanned and Scared
bv pits,-were ragged and brown, as If some
monster plow had furrowed them, and the
Titan husbandman, pausing in his laboTS, had
left them unharrowed. They were cleft as II
bv the sabre of the lightning; shaken as il by
EARTHQUAKES. Shorn of timber, they stood
baIdheaded, Drawing sunshine and tempest.
In every direction the eye discovered evil
dences Of an impending struggle. The noun
tains had batteries for crowns batteries for
necklaces, batteries for girdles. Fort Negley
was near: Fort Palmer kept stern, though
silent watch; Fort King frowned defiance, and
Moccasin Point was ready TO use It's poisoned
fangs. Fort Wood stood ike an athlete re
ioicing in its strength. Orchard Knob was
drawing in its breath for mighty struggle,
and over mountain and through valley the
sunlight was reflected back from FURNISHED
steel gay uniforms and starry flags.
Grant, Sherman. Hooker, Phil Sheridan,
Thomas. Granger, Meigs Hunter and Reynolds
were there The old Army Of the Cumberland
was there Howard was close at hand with
the Eleventh Corps; Baird and Johnson with
their divisions of the Fourteenth; Wood with
his division of the Fourth; Sheridan $ division;
Kings brigade of regulars brief roll OF honor

Bragg, Breckenridge, Hardee, Stevens Gle
burn, Bates and Walker were there as well,
waiting for the battle to begin. Men of skill,
decision, resources and daring, they were hope
full of the issue and ready to pick up the iron
gauntlet as soon as thrown down, and fight out
the fight to the bitter end for a cause they
deemed just.
The guns that greeted the sun were those Of
Sherman. Conquering difficulties beyond be
lief, he came with his veterans of the Tennessee
and struck his iron-gloved hand into the in
viting palm of the enemy until it quivered and
was half withdrawn. An ominous silence fol-
lowed, in which men could almost hear the
beating of their own hearts. Then a signal
flag iuttered above Fort Wood. There was an
answering flutter from the center and wings Of

4 few weeks of rest, and they were married.
The days and years slipped pleasantly and
smoothly by. Then came the care of children,
sickness, and the failure Of crops. The unpaid

sold, and they removed 10 a neighboring town,
trusting to trade to secure support, but their
bright hopes soon took fight. Competition
was brisk. There were other veterans to be

to be fought out almost as desperately as that
of war, and many fell by the wayside. Their
