SMITH, G. j.:
Jennings v Copeland. Error. When
a guardian resigned his trust and suppos-
ing successor had been appointed, set
tied with him and delivered the estate of
the ward-both parties acting in good
falkland afterwards the supposed guar
dian was duly appointed: Held, that the
new guardian might, before his appoint
ment, be regarded as the agent of the
first, and if no loss occurred by reason of
the transfer of the estate before the ap-
pointment, the new guardian and his bond
would be held responsible for the estate
in the condition in which he received it,
and for diligence and good faith afters
wardds according tee- the principles settled
by former cases. When note held BY a
guardian came to the possession of his ad-
ministrator in 1865, it was the duty of the
collect the debts if necessary to save them
from loss by the insolvency of debtors.
Rents received by an administrator are
assets, but when received by an heir the
personal representative cannot recover
them. The administrator not liable for
estimated value of property, but for what
it brought at sale, and if in Confederate
currency scaled as of time of SALE
Guggeaaheinser Y. BrooAs1feld. affirmed.
Motion to vacate order of attachment
The facts being found by the court it was
unnecessary to send up the evidence A
debtor unable to pay his debts has the
right to prefer creditor, when the ap-
preparation of his property is absolute, the
reserve existing for his own benefit. In
such cases the intent is fact to be proved.
In this case, the fraudulent intent being
negatived by the finding of the Judge in
the Superior Court, the Supreme Court
must act on this finding.
Cgc5aiss v. Brooh1feld. Ati1med Same
principle as in Guggenheimer v. Brook
field, q. v.
Bridgers v. Norris. When there have
been many transactions between the par
ties, and there being complication and
controversy as to amount due on the
mortgage debt, the court will interpose
and require the foreclosure to be made,
under the direction of the court, after ali
the controverted matters have been dis
posed of and the balance due fixed Cope
hart v. Briggs, n N. O., 261, commented
on by Smith, G. J.
Mdz,UeU v. Jones. affirmed. When
the plaintiffs allege title and claim pos
session of the land, both of which were
denied by the defendant, it was not error
for the judge to charge the jury that
plaintiff must recover on the strength of
his own title and not on the weakness of
that of his adversary.
Ydncey V. Greenlee. A6frnsed In this
case there is no assignment of errors ac-
companying the record, and none are
found by the court therefore, according
to the established rule, when no error ap-
pears, the judgment must be affirmed

For Assembly,.

I hereby announce myself as candl-
date for the nomination and election of
Dem )critic Representative for the next
Legislature. Whether elected or defeat
cd, L shall continue to labor for the cum
plete overthrow of all monopolies and
the various means and agencies which
are continually employed to oppress the
poor, firmly believing thut neither Ma
ture nor God ever designed that the poor
should be, aa they now are, virtually, the
slaves of the Plutocracy-better known
az the MONEY POWER. Good wages
for fair day g work, to be promptly paid
in cash, should be the law, and no Com
pany Stores, nor any other methods
should be allowed to exist, to over-reach
the laborer.
Strongly believing that these are, a.
mong others, really the groat and vital
things that are Of practical Importance
to the masses of the people, and that they
must be radically corrcctel sooner oil
later. pledge myself, under all circum
stances, TO advocate them with am un
yielding conviction, that it is for justice
right and the good OF humanity. And
shall do it with energy AMI force.

The coal companies are now making
what they hope will be the last sacrifice.
necessary this year in order to maintain

years that, with more suspensions than in

to market proportionately greater amount

suspend during this week and during the
