After John H. Rodney. Esq, had filed
his answer to the petition for a man

ANOTHER HUNG JURY.
The Wallace Case Jurors Disagree-The
New Castle Rioters Sentenced.

NrN AAhtAC AAAbAtIA HHAtcncens
After the answer to the petition for a
mandamus against Tax Collector John j.
Dongherty, he'd been filed in the
Superior Court yesterday afternoon.
Chief Justice Comegys charged
the jury in the case Of Mary Wallace VS.
the w. & n R. r. which has been run
ming for the past two weeks The jury
retired at 2.30 o'clock and was out al
night.
At 9.45 o'clock this morning the jury
came into court and reported that they
found it impossible TO agree. They were
discharged. The jury stood six for dam
ages for the plaintiff, and FIVE for yer,
dict for the defendant. They had not
considered the question Of the amount
Of damages.
The application to set aside the esheriff's
sale Of the Excelsior Brewery property
was denied. and the sale confirmed.
The motion for new trial in the casa
OF the New Castle rioters was refused
The application was made on the ground
of faults in the Indictment. The court
held that there were two kinds Of riots
one in which the people attacked
are terrified, and another in which un.
lawful acts are committed The indict-
ment against the prisoner was in accord
ance with the first mentioned kind Of
riot, and as terror on the part OF the
people had been proven, it was sufficient
to convict.
The prisoners. George Bratton. James
Hart, John Barnes, Albert Barnes, Jacob
II Nandegrift, ,Jr and James Dougherty
were brought into court and each
sentenced to pay a fine Of 5000
and costs and be imprisoned
for five months, beginning to-day. The
men took the sentence indfferently.
They were taken TO the New Castle Jail

THE agi i'ation Of the subject Of
annexation. or commercial union between
Canada and the United States is becoming
a matter Of widespread interest The
subject was effusiyely discussed here
last night by General James
II. Wilson and Mr.. Erastus

attention last night in Montreal. The
principal speaker Premier Mercier's SON
in-law, Mr. Gouin, prominent lawyer,
who made speech in which he showed
conclusively that annexation was prefer
able even to independence Mr.. Trem

the audience rose en- masse and declared

II Is absurd and foolish to expect that
the court viii compel the collectors 70
receive taxes from attorneys" when
they will not receive the same taxes
from the principals who employ the
alleged attorneys That is the position
the Republicans must take. however, In
TIE Hawkins mandamus case. In order
to make any case al all they must con-
~ince the court that lot Of men Of
wariegated colors and assorted characters
are deprived Of their certificates
By the refusal Of the collector % issue
them They demand for attorneys what
they claim is refused 10 those whom the
attorneys represent. It is not apparent
how the collector would be more com
PLEASANT to attorneys than to the princi
pals. It is not apparent why the courl
has not been asked TO issue Its rule e
compel the collector take taxes from the
principals It is surely the principals
not the attorneys, who should complain
1t would seem, If the court had any juris
diction, OF if the case we're not simply pre-
pared for buncombe. the collector woulI
be required to do just what he declares b
is willing and ready to do--just what b
has been dolng-to take the money and
issue certificates to every man who come
to pay his tax. The collector has refuses
to recognize attorneys; he cannot refus
to recognize principals. Hence it seen,
that the plea of the Republicans is at
surb. and ridiculous on its face. The
are requesting the interference Of til
court to compel the collector to issue re
ceipts 70 bogus attorneys, which have nc
been refused to principals.

IT seems strange that General Wilson
should have mentioned with approval the
project that General Grant should have
marched against and taken possessi n Of
Canada in 1865 because he had enough
troops under his command. The United
States is not the country in which TO
advocate such proposition. It is op.
posed to the genius Of the government
and to the principles Of free people.
