THE Exposition has developed the
fact that there are almost innumerable
persons with views, eager for rostrum
from which to publish them. 1t is for
tunate that persons are at liberty to
listen or not, because some of the views
which have been uttered are quite trashy.

THE President will be asked to re-

Commission as at present continued has
not been commensurate with the amount
of money expended, and it is thought
that change would restore confidence
and encourage further appropriations.

Practice. attachment for rent Errons-
ous verdict.
ARNOLD, j.:
In 1881, W. FL. Catchings sold a tract
of land to Orange Catchings, and took
his promissory notes TO secure the
purchase-mon AT the same time 1t
was stipulated, by contract in writing,
that if Orange Catchings failed to pay
any one of the notes at maturity, the
vendor should be entitled to rent to an
amount equal to that specified in the
notes. The first note was paid. Before
the maturity of the second, w. III.
Catchings heard that Orange Catchings
did not intend to pay it, and that heck
pected to 60 to another place. He met
Orange Cachings and asked him about
it. Orange Catchings admitted the
truth of the report, and added that he
had executed a trust deed covering his
crop for that year, and intended to
deliver the crops TO the beneficiary.
Thereupon w. H. Catchings commenced
proceedings by attachment to collect the
rent not yet due. The writ was levied,
and the trustee in the trust deed
then made affidavit, claiming the
property, and replevied it. On the trial
of the issue between landlord and
claimant, there was judgment
for the landlord for the amount of rent
specified in the note. The jury
failed to assess the separate value of the
different items of property, and the
trustee in he trust deed appealed.
Responding to the errors assigned, we
conclude, first that as no objection was
made to the affidavit, bond, and warrant
in the lower court, none can be made
here; second, that the landlord wa
not required to pursue the remedy
provided by Code 1854; and third, thai
it was error for the jury not to asses:
the separate value of the property Levied
on and replieved.
Judgment reversed, yerdict not distsrbet
and cause remanded in order that [
aorit of inquiry may be awarded to ascer
tain the separate ratue Of the property.

Sale of land under ,ciH without order Of
court.
COOPER, j.;
This is an action of ejectnent insti-
tuted by Mrs. Grantham. The land in
controversy was owned by one Sistrunk,
who died in 1860, leaving widow and
two children, one of whom died in
infancy. Mrs. Grantham is the survivor,
and claims the land by descent from her
father. Sistrunk left will, in which is
the following clause: ITO my beloved
wife, Sarah, / give the sum of twenty
dollars; also one-third part of the net
proceeds arising from the sale of all my
real estate, on the condition of her re-
linquishing her right of dover to said
real estate; it to be sold at public sale
to the highest bidder by my executor
hereinafter named, on such credits as be
did pot qualify, and administrators with
the will annexed were appointed.
They sold the lands, under the will,
Without al OIucT VI COuTt. 1Hc Sale
was for cash, and appellants claim under
the purchaser. At the trial, the jury
was Instructed to find for the plaintiff.
The purpose of 3 1876, p. ASS, Code of
1857, was to provide for sale of the
lands of testator, under the direct ons
of the will, by any of the persons named
in it on whom the duty 70 sell had been
devolved, and in the event of failure
on the part of all such persons to act,
then that the sale should be made BY
the administrator with the will annexed.
1t was not required that the devise of
the land should be devise of the title
to the executor. 1t was sufficient if by
the will the lands were Internationally
and absolutely devoted to sale. In all
such cases, the land is devised to be
sold," within the meaning of the statute;
and the sale may be made by the repre-
sentative of the testator acting under
the will. Reversed

County. ]. B. Chrisman, Judge.
Liability Of agent. for aonJeasance.
CAMPBELL, G. j.:
Appellants own plantation which
adjoins the plantation of ID. ID. Withers,
on which B. p Swan is overseer. Ten
years ago, levee was built by the owners
of these plantations for their common
protection against overflow; and ditch
was excavated from the Feltus planta-
ton through the Withers plantation,
for the purpose of draining off the
water which collected behind this levee
from rainfall and overflow. An over
flow occurred in 1884, and large guam
tity of water accumulated. The drain
was not opened, and 700 acres of land
on the Feltus plantation consequently
remained uncultivated during the year
Thereupon appellants brought suit
against Withers, the owner, and Swan
the overseer, to recover 900 for their
failure to perform the alleged duty OF
opening the ditch. Process was duly
served upon Swan, but not upon
Withers. Swan then demurred to the
declaration, alleging that, being only an
agent, he was not liable to third party
for non feasance; and his demurrer was
sustained, upon which the plaintiffs
asked leave to insert in the declaration
an averment that the failure to open the
ditch was malicious, etc. The court re
fused to allow the amendment, and
entered judgment dismissing the ac-
ton as to Swan. Plaintiffs then dis
missed as to Withers, and prosecuted
this appeal.
Appellee, being a mere agent, was not
liable for an omission of duty, except
to his principal. Story on Agency, II
308, 300. The proposed amendment
would not have made the declaration
good, for whatever motive operated on
the agent, the charge against him was
only that he had failed to do something,
and not that he had done anything; and
for non-feasance, or omission to act at
all, the agent is answerable only to his
employer affirmed.

A QUEER SUNDAY DREAM.
BY GEORGE COOPER.

He slept, aud dreamt that kangaroo
Had given a fancy ball;
The elephant came with the festive gnu,
The mouse with the strich tall.
A funny rsffe, ihatd;d nothing but laugh,
Droppsd In with osutipede;
And cricket and flea that had just been at
ia
Waited round wi h remarkable speed.
A wasp snd humble bee bad chat
Just over his little nose;
And boa cons ;rictor, upon the mat,
Dress,d up in bis Sunday clothes.
A crow and raccocn, in fire balloon,
Paus d over his bed TO sing;
And neat srmadillo crept up on his pill
low
To dance the Highland fling.
Then all, ere they left, made graceful bow,
And out in the moonlight sped;
Excepting popderous brindle cow,
Which stopped to stand on its head.
The iule boy woke, and gIinned at the
joke;
Sprang out Of his bed with tilt;
II can dream it all over" said he, "while
they cover
Me up with this crazy quilt"

A Baking Rowder Trick.

All kinds of schemes and tricks are re.
sorted TO By unprinc pied persons TO obtain
unfair Advantages over their neighbors.
The latest and most dishonest of the Sc that
b come 10 our notice is one By which GER
tain manufacturers of baking powder have
sought to prejudice consumers against the
use OF other bra ds that have an estab-
lished reputation as the best and purest in
the market, for the purpose of introducing
their own. Their method, We ere informed
is to heat a can of bah ing powder of a we'll
known brsnd over lamp or stove, when,
il there is gas given off having the odor
OF ammonia, the powder condemned So
being made of ammonia and conse.
quently is unfit for use. The preju.
dices of the unsuspecting are thus exci'sd
against the baking powder submitted to the
so-called test. and the grocer who has a
quantity on hand suffers q serious loss in
cons e9uenos.
IL Il intelligent consumer will stop
moment to think, she will readily perceive
that this "test," ii successful, proves MOTH
ing but the superiority of the baking pow
der tested. The aim of all baking powder
makers is to produce an article that shall
most readily, under use, give of its leaven-
ing gas. The powder that does this with Q
moderate heat, at the same time evolving
the largest quantity, is scientifically the
best.
There is probably not an article prepar-
ed for food tina. cannot be manipulated to
prove tina, something is wrong about it
and when person goes into kitchen or
before housekeeper who is not to be pre-
sumed to understand chemical relations,
and performs an experiment of even the
simplest character, IL is not difficult to i'm
press one that something awful is the mat.
ter. As to baking powders, we could sug-
gest d zen tests that would be as ridicu-
Ious in giving fair idea of their relative
merits to an uninstructed mind as the one
here mentioned.
The true domestic value of a bak ing
powder consists in its purity, wholsCome-
ness, and lesvening power. 1t is only the
chemist with his chemical appliances, who
can determine these qualities scientifically
aud exactly. Aside from this, the best est
for baking powder is to Try il in making
bread and see which makes the most and
the best. To this practical test all the e.
tablished brands have been put, and houso--
keepers have very generally made up their
minds which they prefer, and the tricksiers
will find ultimately that brand that has
been hous. hold favorire for wears. will
not be displaced by reason of any tricks
which they may show.
