The United States Supreme Court
on the tat instant, decided the Blue
Ridge Scrip case in favor of the State,
reversing the decision of the lower
court, with instructions to dismiss
the bill.
This decision savos the State from
having to pay $1,800,00O as already
asccrtained, besides an indcfnate
sum. Had it been otherwise, the fl
nances Of the State would have been
brought to almost certain ruin. The
pending of this suit has had a de
pressing tendency on the financial
condition Of the State, and now that
the uncertainty is removed, and the
State relieved forever from the dread
of this burden, the tax payers caE
breathe easier and pursue their sew
eral avocations with better spirits.
It is indeed refreshing to TIE far.

THE SNOW STORM.
The snow came floating DER the world,
From out the dreary sky,
AS II TO recompense mankind
For seeing nature die.
o drcary world so like my life,
On which the sorrows fall,
Must every sunbeam fade away,
And snow flakes cover all?
No. doubling one the sunbcams soon
Will come to earth again,
And winters cold and cherries snow
VIII melt in April rain.
Thus sorrow from thy aching heart
Shall flee like night away,
And trials pass, and tleeting time
Will bring at last the day.

The election In this city on Monday
last of an alderman from the Yves,
Ward, to fill the vacancy occasioned
by the death of Col. j. G. Ferguson,
was II Of the quietest that has been
held in Grenada for years. IT wa
the general opinion, and no doubt II
correct one, that this election would
be a contest bet"een.the prohis. ana
the ants. for the election Of their re-
sprbtive representatives. Geo. W.
Jones, Esq tcoI.) was the candidate
Of the first named party, and Mr.. q.
j. Nance the candidate of the last
named party. While the total va e
polled was small, Mr., Nance held III
teal from the start, and when the
ballots were counted Mr.. Nance had
received ninety-seven votes against
thlr'y!six for his opponent. Mr.. n.
represented the moral, social, intel
lectual, and commercial interests of
our city. Since the foregoing was in
type we are informed that the prohis.
say that they did not put the said
u. w. Jones, Esq, IN tile field. He
(Joies) may consider himself highly
complitnented, however, as W. are
assured by persons who ought to
know, that a majority Of the thirty
SIX votes which he received were cast
by white men.
