officers in the Mexican States of Coahuila
aud Nueva Leon took place on Sunday.

ed in Santa Catalina. At Sabinos, Hidalgo,
battle occurred between the government
soldiers and citizens. District Judge Garcia
was killed while the colonel, commanding
the troops, together with about twenty

The Coupon Cases.

Iu the U. s. Supreme Court yesterday q
decision was rendered by the court in
the ex parte case of 7. Temple Crouch,
petitioner, upon motion for leave to 6le q
| petition for a writ Of haheas corpus. This
was an attempt to bring again before this
court, in such way as to obtain prompt
| decision, the question of the receivability Of
the coupons Of Virginia State bonds in pay
ment of State taxes. Crouch, the petitioner,
| insisted upon paying his license Tax In cou
| pons, which the revenue officer Of the State
declined to receive. Crouch refused to make
payment in any other way, whereupon be
was arrested and held for trial by order Of
| the Hastings Court of the city of Richmond
upon the charge of violating The license
law. He thereupon applied to this court
for a writ of habcas corpus upon the ground
that he was detained in custody by the
State court in violation of the constitution
Of the United States, because the statute
which prohibits the revenue officer from
accepting the coupons impairs the oblisa.
tion of the contract of the State to receive
them, and is on that account imperative
and void by reason Of the provision Of the
federal constitution which precludes the
State from passing such laws. This court
holds that when prisoner is in the
custody of State court of competent
Jurisdiction, not illegally asserted, he cannot
be taken from that jurisdiction and dis
charged by a court Of the United States on
writ of haheas corpus merely because he is
not guilty of the offense for which he is held.
Here the right of the prisoner to discharge
depends alone on the sufficiency of his de-
tense, and whether that defense is sufficient
or not is for the court which tries him to
determine. fin such determination errors
are committed, they can only be corrected
in an appropriate form of proceeding for that
purpose. The Office of q writ of habeas cor
pus is neither to correct such errors nor to
take the prisoner away frcm the court which
holds him for trial for fear that ifhe remains
there such errors may be committed. The
motion OF the petitioner is therefore denied.
Opinion by Chief Justice Waite.
A decision was also rendered by the court
in the ex parte case of VIM. l. Royal, petit
TONER This was molten for leave to file
petition for writ of certiorari, and was
another attempt to get before this court the
question of the receivabilty Of the coupons
of Virginia State bonds in payment Of State
taxes. This court however holds that it has
no jurisdiction under the form of an appeal
or writ of error to review decision of
circuit court upon writ of habeas corpus in
the case Of a person alleged to be restrained
of his liberty in violation of the constitution
or of any law or treaty Of the United States.
The petition ia therefore denied. Opinion by
Chief Justice Waite.

LONDON, Nov. 1l.--At the Lord Mayors
banquet at the Guild Hall last night, Sir
John A. Mcdonald, the Canadian premier,
responded to the toast in honor Of the visi
tors. Among other things be said Canada
was proud of the fact that she was no longer
cause of trouble and weakness to England.
He looked forward to the time when some
form Of con federation would be brought
about between England and Canada. If a
great confederation should be made of Eng

with England would be Obliged to count on

FROM STATEMENTS in a few of the North
ern newspapers it seems that some people
in that section are laboring under the delu'
sion that Malone will try to steal the vote
of this State as Jones and Elkins are trying
to steal that of New York. No apprehen-
sion need exist from such score. The
people of Virginia have put up with as
much from General Malone as they can well
bear. and lust one more straw, let alone a
real attempt 10 steal their State, would pro-

effect of which would be any thing but
