TIE COURT 20 WE'LL ESS.
His Honor Thinks IL Too Late to Set
Aside u Forfeiture.

The motion to enter the Judgment aS salts
fed in the case of John Hartnett, who for.
feitcd his bond of $500 in 1865 by failing to ap.
pear for trial on the charge Of assault and
battery, was denied by Justice Montgomery in
the criminal court yesterday. shortly after
the bond was forfeited the case was nollc
pressed. Nothing more was heard of the case
until Saturdaylas when Mr.. W. =. Bell called
Justice Montgomery'S attention TO the fact
that some title examiners had ruled that the
forfeiture threw cloud on the title Of certain
real estate valued at $4,000 belonging to one
of the sureties and moved that as the case
had been nolle pressed that the Judgment be
entered as satisfied, and so remove the cloud.
District Attorney lloge said that he had no
objection II the court had the power to grant
the motion, but he did not think II had. JUS
ticC Montgomery, in his opinion, sustaiRS the
views of the district attorney, as the motion
TO enter. Judgment as satisfied should have
been made In the same term of court as the
forfeiture. The only recourse now to have

NEwroN's COUNTERFEIT BILL

The trial OF Mai, Newton colorcd, indicted
for violating section 5il5 Revised Statutes Of
the United States in passing a counterfeit
bank note Of $40 on VIM. II. Shaw, of the
Monticello Club, on Dec. - last was begun
in the criminal court yesterday. Mr., Lips.
comb prosecuted the case, and Mr. Bendhcim
defended. From the evidence II appears that
on the day in question large crowd of coll
orcd men was assembled in one of the rear

of the players, and luck was against him. At-
ter losing several dollars in small change he
produced a $40 bill, but did not wish TO
change 1t. The appearance of this bill enabled
him TO secure unlimited credit around the
board. When he became indebted TO the
amount of several dollars to various players
dispute arose as to the amount he owed. IN
order to settle the matter VIM. II. Shaw took
the bill and changed II so as TO allow Newton
10 pay his debts, Luck changed and Newton
was soon 81 ahead, and left the place. Shortly
after II was discovered that the $40 bill was a
counterfeit, and so stamped across the face.
Shaw, who changed the bill, stated that when
il was handed to him It was SO folded as to
claimed that Newton got the bill from u man
in Georgetown, and was saving II to make
Christmas purchases. lie said he did not
know II was counterfeit until shaw sent him

The Meaning Of America.

The meaning Of the name Amerigo has
often been discussed, the only thing GER
tain being that it is one Of those names of
Teutonic orr i'm, like Humberto, Alfonzo,
Grimaldi. or Garibaldi, so common in
northern Italy, which testify to the Gothic
or Lombard conquest. Americ, which
occurs as early as IA A. D., is probably
q contracted form of the name Amalaric,
borne by a king of the Visigoths, who
died in 531. A Bishop Enrich was
present at the council of Salisbury in s07,
and an Americas Balistarius is mentioned
q the Close Rolls Thirteenth century,.
1t has been ~conjectured that the stem
Is i'm, from which we get the name of
Emma. The meaning Of this is not
known with certainty, though Ferguson
thinks il may denote '~'strife'' or 'noise."
Since, however, the name is probably Of
Gothic origin, and since the Amalungs
were the royal race Of the Ostragoths, it
is more likely that the stem is anal,
which was formerly thought to mean
''without spot" but is now more plaus-
ibly connected with the old Morse ami,
''labor, " work. The suffice ric, cog
nate with rex, reich and rick, means
''rich" or powerful" and therefore the
most probable Specification of Amerigo is
''strong for labor. Isaac Taylor in

Powdered sugar, on the contrary, being

forms around the meat O solid crust,
which removes very little water from il
