the life of the greatest of English
novelists. 1t is probable that in
justice to her father Mrs. Richie
will allow her friend to give them
to the world. They disclose
secret chapters in the romance of
Thackeray's life and passages that

The best years of Thackeray's life
were given to the affectionate care
Of his insane wife. Her diseasewas

THE PACIFIC BANK.
Pro Forma Verdict Against the Bank OF
Two Certificates of Deposit.

Pro Forma Verdict Against the Bank on
Two Certificates Of Deposit.
BOSTON, Jan. 24.-In the United States
Court this morning Judge Colt ordered YER
dict for the plaintiff in the case of George Mix
ter against the receiver of the Pacific Bank.
Exceptions were taken by defendants counsel,
and the case goes TO the Supreme Court at
Washington. The case Of Henry NJ. Whitney
against the receiver of the bank to recover
SIS, 600 on certificate of deposit was put on
trial this morning. Mr. Whitney was called by
the defence. He testified that he received the
certificate from ID. N. Skillings; that it was is
sued to A. A. Marcus, for what consideration
MIR. Whitney did not know. 1t seems that the
bank held the equity in piece OF land on the
Back Bay adjoining property of Mr. Whitney,
and that Benyon desired to prevent the lore
closure of a mortgage thereon The principal
consideration received for the certificate OF de-
posit was the assurance that this mortgage
should not be foreclosed for two years. 1t is
claimed that Mr.. Marcus obtained the guaran-
tee.
Mr. Brown, paying teller of the Pacific
Bank, testified that on November 6, 1881, the
receiving teller charged him with two certifi-
Gates of deposit, amounting to $4,000; that the
only consideration the bank received therefor
was check for 5000 on Boston bank. 1t left
him $2l 900 short, and he carried that sum
among his cash items until after the failure,
November IS. He spoke to Benyon, about it
after the SUSPENSION, and he told him to charge
the $21 600 to Temporary loans, which he did
Receiver Frice testified that the certificate
was one of others amounting to $45, 900, pre-
sented against the bank by Charles Whitney;
that they were first dsallowed, put settle
ment was made. Mr.. Stone, counsel for the
bank, asked to go to the jury on the question
whether there was any legal consideration for
the certificate obtained by the bank Hon.
Dwight Foster, counsel for the plaintiff, ar
gued that no fraud or illegality had been shown
in connection with Mr.. Whitney's possession
OF the paper, and asked that the jury be in
structed to find for the plaintiff.
The Court took the latter view of it, and o
pro forma verdict for the plaintiff was ordered.
The defendant took exceptions.

WARRINGTON, Jan. M-The cross examina
tion of A. W Moore was continued to-day and

gun. Moore in his direct examination testified
to be ing employed in 1878 by Miner at $3.50
per m onth and expenses, to look after mail
business in Montana, and to report at Senator
Dorsey's house for instruction and funds. He
had told Dorsey the service had beeu taken too
low, but that by careful management he could
be saved from loss. Dorsey said that the long
weekly routes had been taken SO as to get the
benefits of increase and expedition. Rerdell-
was present at the conversation. Dorsey pro-
duced blank forms of sab-contracts, and pein-
ted out what to the witness was a novel provis-
ion for expedition, and he was instructed to
carry out the plan in making snb-contracts.
The witness testified that after he had sub
let several contracts be went back to Washing
ton, where Dorsey agreed to give him a fourth
interest in the Pacific slope contracts in stead
of a salary, and in July, 1878, Miner returned
to Washington and drew up contract in &C.
cordance with the agreement. WITNESSES ex-
penses were to be taken out OF the general
