cartridges, tin pans, snd horns. After
firing several salutes they were invited in
the house by Mr.. Hopkins and treated in

for them to leave they thought il
fit and proper by way OF showing their ap-
probation OF the kind manner they had
been treated, TO fire vo!ley or two, and
they accordingly done so, excepting a
young man named Shannon Wellman,
who, from some reason, withheld the t;--

and placing it upon his shoulder, the bar

against his head, pulled the trigger. The

Judge Jackson on the Appointment
of Martin
AS RECEIVER OF THE OHIO CENTRAL.
The Curious Conduct Of Baxter, the Ohio
Judge-What the West Virginia Court
Will Do on the Grounds
of Priority.
ISnrrinl tn the ReniStcr.

CHARLESTON, December l4.-It would ap-
pear that the action OF Judge John Baxter
in appointing, on Thursday, Mr.. ]. f.
Martin receiver of the River division OF the
Ohio Central Railroad Company, which ex-
tends from Corning, Ohio, to Charleston,
West Virginia, was untenable and without
legal precedent, in view OF the fact that
the Federal Court, in West Virginia, had
first acquired jurisdiction by the filing OF
the bondholders' bill and other requisite
legal steps sometime before similar action
was taken in Ohio. Judge Baxter seems
not TO have considered this in making
the appoin .ment of Mr.. Martin. Judge
Jackson will sustain Colonel Sharp as
receiver and assert his right to take
possession OF the entire river division, and
steps have aresdy been taken to extend
Colonel Sharp's receivership to Corning,
and to declare Martins acts null and void.
Juuge Jackson went to Columbus at the
request of Judge Baxter to confer with
him in regard TO the appointment OF a re-
ceiver for the entire line. He was sur
prised, however, on his arrival, to find that
the question had been disposed Of, and
that Judge Baxter, from the bench, had
severely criticised his action. In
a polite note he asked Judge Baxter
if the remarks attributed TO him
in regard to the appointment OF
Colonel Sharp as receiver as published
were true and whether a conference was
necessary. Judge Baxter deCli-ing to re-
ply, Judge Jackson left for his home in
West Virginia, and after his departure
Judge Baxter made the appointment OF
Martin as receiver.
The Jurisdiction is Clesrly with the
West V rginia court, aDd as Judge Jackson
is known TO be a man OF firm and deter
mined purpose, he will not only maintain
his jurisdiction in Vest Virginia, but ex
tend il over The entire river division TO

The New river is considered useless as
