In the courts.

Supreme court Of ppeOls.-Sc0tts
heirs against Ashlin. Argued by W. d..
Dabney, Esq, for appellant and A. a. Gray
and George Perkins, Esqs., for appellees
and continued until tomorrow.
Circuit C0urt-Argumen in the case Of
r. 4. Hubbard against j. Thompson Brown
q Co. was resumed in the Circuit Court.
Hon. John ;. Wise, who was speaking when
the court adjourned Monday evening, Tin
ished his argument. He was followed by
Col. W. W. Gordon, also for the defendant,
and Judge Staples closed at about
$3.50 =. NJ. for the plaintiff. When the court
met at 3 z. NJ, after recess, it was in the
Hastings Courtroom, instead Of the Circuit
Court room. The reason at this was the
immense crowd present and the fear appre-
hended by some that this place could not
stand the strain.
The Jury took the case at $3.50, and at 6:lJ
p. NJ. returned TO the courtroom, stating
that they could not agree. They were adj
iOurned over until to-day at 10 O'Clock. The
court will meet this morning in the stearns
building.
