supreme CourtorAppcals. Yesterday


In Frayser T.. The Richmond and
Allegheny Railroad Company, yester-
day, the case was argued by Beverly 7.
Crump, Esq, for the appellant. and
Charles L. Williams, Esq, and Major
Isaac IL. Darlington for the appellee.
The case was an appeal from the
decision in the present receivers suit
in the Circuit Court. Frayser's admin
istrator had a judgment for 81 ,00Q
against the railroad company, and filed
a petition in the receivers suit. The
grounds Of his appeal were that the
State was not interested, and hence the
Circuit Court of Richmond had no ju-
risdiction and because the Circuit
Court refused to inquire whether the
stockholders Of the railroad company
had paid up their subscriptions and b.
also claimed an execution lien upon the
prior earnings Of the road on hand at
the time Of the appointment Of the re-
ceiyers. The case was continued until
to-day.

State Penitentiary. Writ Of habeas

I.itle Chnnge In the Ice.

The weather was warmer Sunday
and yesterday, but the effect on the
ice in the river is hardly perceptible.
Above and near Mayos island the
bulk of the ice is gradually diminish
ing, but lower down the river there is
10 noticeable change. If the breaking
up continues as gradually as it was
going on yesterday the gOrging in the
bends will not be great.
At l2 o'clock last night a heavy
rain was falling, and the prospect Is
that the ice will break up more rapidly
than was otherwise expected.
