tinuance Of certain conditions over which
the creditor has no control. Under the
bankrupt law partner was not allowed to
claim his homestead in partnership assets.
On re Smith, Hughes. 307.)
The case of Edwards rs. Kearzey, de-
cided by the Supreme Court of the United
States in October. 1877 COG U. S., $3.50, lays
down the rule that State has no right TO
change the remedy for the enforcement Of
n contract if it will substantially impair
its obligation. All contracts are now
made with reference 10 the homestead. All
of the courts have held that the home
stead laws could have no retroactive effect,
because. if so, they would seriously i'm
PAIR contracts which were made without
anticipating them. A way out of the diffi-
Guilty is to have q national bankrupt
law, with the proviso that no dis
charge shall be granted, whether in
voluntary or involuntary bankruptcy,
until after an unconditional surrender Of
all State exemptions has been made. In
other words, let the bankrupt court admin
lister the whole estate of the debtor. and
then set apart 10 him such amount in lieu
of his State homestead as Congress may
deem to be right, making the exemption
exactly alike in all the States, of course.

you ask, and you are right in stating that
Congress has entire control over the mat

Groner and Harrison Have Conference.

A Deer-Park letter in the Baltimore Sun
says. General V. ID. Groner called at the
cottage and had a long and cordial CONVEX
sation with the President relative to the

The object of this visit was to assure the
President that the anti-MahOne faction ac-
cepts the outcome Of the compromise in
good faith. and they are willing TO believe
that General Malone and lis followers are
willing to do likewise The whole situation
in Virginia was gone over thoroughly,
and the President said he was very much
gratifed at the conclusion that has been
reached. He said he was convinced from
what General Malone and others interest
edin Virginia politics had said 90 him that
all hands acquiesced in the settlement of
that promised 10 be very ugly dispute.
He assured General Groncr that, 50 far az
the Administration is concerned, the terms
If the compromise will be upheld IN good
faith. General Groner said the anti-Ma-
honeists accepted the situation with good
grace, as they have accomplished nearly
every thing they have been coutending for
these many years. He also urged the Presi-
dent t. allow John ;. Wise TO have a voice
in the selection Of the postmaster at Rich
mond, as the latter, while temporarily re-
siding la New York city, still retains his
residence in Richmond, and Is an impOr-
tant factor in the Republican party there.
