WANTS HIS MONEY BACK.
w. w. Townsend Has Land Which
He Can Never Sell.

A peculiar suit, in which W. ".
Townsend is plaintiff, and Michael
Capler and Jeremiah Donahue, exc
cutors of the estate of the late John
Copeland, was on trial before Judge
Lochren yesterday. TOwnsend's suit
is only for $1,000, but there are some III
teresting matters connected with 1t.
Townsend bought some land from the
executors for which he paid $1,000 and
gave mortgages for $500. He after
ward found that his title was no good.
The matter was taken to the courts,
and the supreme court decided that
Townsend could get no clear title to the
land. The executors refused to return
his $1,000, and there is where the
trouble lies. Townsend is out $1,000,
has land OH his hands which he cannot
sell and which is not worth what it was
when he bought it, and so sues to re-
cover his money and to have the mort
cages given uD,

WASHINGTON, d. c., Dec. 9, 1889.
The Century Piano and Organ Co.,
Minneapolis, MINI.
Gentlemen: l have received the
Henry +. Miller Grand Piano which you
ordered shipped to me here from BOs
ton. and it is very mild to say that we
are all pleased and delighted with 1t.
Beautiful in tone, and exquisite in
workmanship, it is an adornment to any
parTOr. We are particularly pleased
with its delicate action, its resonance in
the lower registers. its singing quality
in middle, and briiliancy in the upper
notes. 1t has a sympathetic quality
rarely found in other instruments in
the same degree. 1t is a pleasure to
commend so noble an instrument and a
matter of pride that American makers
of pianos have reached such q summit
of excellence as is found in the iustru
meut bearing the name of Henry Z. Mil
Ter. Very truly yours.

they might be displayed aTtistically,

and we'll be accomplished his task. The
entrance to the main dining room was
guarded by handsome bay trees, yalu-
able not only on account of their cen
nectiOn with Biblical history, but
their rarity in climate like this. made
their symmetrical branches and odd
looking leaf dOubly pleasing to the eye.
Cut flowers were judiciOuslY distributed.
and potted plants and ferns filled every
possible space. In the main dining
room the cornice over the north en-
trance was turned into massive bank
of tropical plants. From a background
of palms aud ferns, great loops of smi
lax and eyergreenS fell in graceful
folds, making a pretty and striking
picture. Here, like everywhere
else, ferns, bell flowers and
other plants filled every possible
crevice. The ladies' ordinary, where
the supper was served exhibited the art
istic touch of the Smith Floral company.
A large bank of roses marked the CEN
ter of one of the tables, while a large
basket of cut flowers, arranged in the
way that only experience and skill
could suggest. formed its counterpart on
the other table. Palms, ferns and
ported plants abOunded everywhere, and
the sweet perfume, the enhancing
music and the happy faces of the par
Elephants wildly suggested trip to

The city won its case in the superior court
yesterday in the litigation over the rice
milled by the city during the Sherman
occuuapcy. The jury was ou but twenty
minutes, when it returned verdict for the
defendants.
The case was a celebrated one, and in
volyed SIT, l29 IS principal, and if interest
is computed from Nov. 10, 1865. the addi-
tional sum of over $24, 900, making SAL 900
1t stake
The suit was filed in the superior court
July Q, 1866, when William H. Bulloch was
clerk OF the court, and by Thomas Z. Lloyd,
attorney for complainantS. The original
complainant was Walter Blake, and the
following were parties complainant in the
original papers: John Campren, William
z; Bee, administrator of John NJ.
Chisholm, William Habersham, Daniel
and Arthur Blake, Robert and
William N. Habersham, John Rich
ardson and William F. Sergeant,
trustees of Ann w. Barclay, Allen S. lizard,
William Law, George s. Owens. executors
of George w. Owens, Jacob NJ Middle
ton and John W. Lewis, executors Of G.
w. McAllister and Richard H. Mcleod
The suit grew out of the sale by the city of
rice owned by the confederacy aud pri-
vate parties, and which was taken charge
Of by the mayor Edward c. Anderson,
on an order and recommendation of Gen.
Sherman dated Dec 80, 1864.
There was then special alderma7ic COM
mlttee on rice, of which John J.. Fillalonga
was chairman, and the committee rented
the HabersAam mill and beat cut S22, GA
pounds of confederate rice and $40, ,0S5
pounds of private rice. OF the private rice
taken some was sold and the city paid the
owners at the rate Of cents per pound for
whole rice and cents per pound for mid
ding and broken rice, and all Of the CON-
plainants were settled with on that basis.
The confederate rice was distributed to the
needy.
After dragging through the court for
the court appointed W. w. Mac
kali, Jr., auditor to report wuat
quantity of rice the city had received, what
sold, the net price obtained, what sums
were paid the owners of the rice and what
amount remained unpaid. Tee auditor
filed his report Feb. 6, 1888, showing that if
the city were liable to the rice owners,
there was due them $l7, 129 So with interest
from Nov. IS, 1865.
The case was ably contested and occu-
pied three days in the superior court. j. r.
SausSy, Esq, represented the complainants,
and S. B. Adams, corporation attorney, and
Col. George A. Mercer represented the city.
The arguments were able and lengthy,
bringing out much interesting local history
connected with the seizure of the rice. The
jury was special panel from the grand
jury. The charge of the court was lucid, and
yet brief, and on a piece of white paper
attached to the original papers in the case,
which have grown yellow with age, was
written the verdict, 1--WE the jury find for

Mr. g. s. Palmer of New York, a we'll
known produce and commission merchant,
who supplies the telegraphic vegetable
markets for the MORNING NEWS. is in the
city, and visited the truck farms on the
Augusta road yesterday, and will visit the
gardeners southeast of the city to-day,
leaving tonight for Charleston.
Mr.. Palmer says the crops are looking
well, and peas will begin to move rapidly
next Monday. Potatoes are growing and he
predicts good CROPS, and fair prices for Sa-
vannah vegetables as the Florida crop is
Short and their peas have nearly all gone
forward
Mr.. Palmer thinks the fast vegetable train
from Savannah will be a great help to
truckers who can ship both by rail aud
steamer, picking peas and beans in the
evening for one and in the morning for the
other. He discourages the shipment of p3-
tatoes poorly matured, and says better re-
suits come from shipping potatoes when
they have reached maturity, as they sell
better, those who buy little potatoes once
not wanting such watery food agaiu.
