DECISIONS IN THE SUPREME COURT
Opinions Rendered In Ten Cases-A
Coupon Suit Being Argued.

Ten opinions we're rendered in the Su-
prcme Court of Appeals Yesterday, none
Of which involved any new point in law or
were OF especial importance 20 the general
public The one read by Judge Lacy in
the case of the Norfolk and Western rail
way against Carper's sadministrator reversed
the judgment given in the Circuit Court
Of Pulaski county. IL was an action for
damages for the alleged negligent
killing Of Isaac Carper by the rail
road at Wytheville. The Court had
rendered o verdict in favor of the
plaintiff for $4,000. but motion
was made 20 set aside the verdict as con-
trary 20 Law and evidence and for new
trial, which was overruled. Tne opinion
declares that while 10 is true tina. rail
roads should use more precaution and
prudence IN passing through towns and
cities than through less freluented sec
tons the company III this instance had
plank platforms constructed for the use of
pedestrians and that the deceased had
crossed the track diagonaly and no ap-
parent blame could be attached TO the
company; therefore new trial was
granted.

STAMPS FOR MONEY.
Representative Aiexandsr's BIZ Makes
Them Redeemabie.
[rrom Our Reeular Correspondent.l

From Our Regular Correspondent
WASHINGTON. January 7.-Representative
Alexander. of North Carolina. speaking OF
his bill n regard TO redeemable stamps.
sad that he thought that this was q
measure that if carried into effect would
greatly benefit people in the rural districts.
and especially those living remote dis
tances from post-offices BY his bill MIR:
Alexander proposes that the Government
shall issue redeemable stamps OF denomi-
nations ranging from fve cents 70 three
dollars; These. stamps are 10 Ssod % soid
at all post-offices. and redeemed
AT any money-order Office. Mr..
Alexander says that as the currency, IS
now issued man living five or ten miles
from a small post-office is in bad nix II he
wants 10 send twenty-five. fifty. or seventy
five cents to city; but If the Government
provides the stamps described IN ms oill
convenient denominations Will be handyg;
and people in towns who receive them Will
be able 10 have them redeemed at post
offices. instead of having TO rely on
the ordinary postag e-stamps, now SO gene
rally used. and which have to be sold at
a considerable discount when disposed OF.
Mr.. Alexander thinks that all mercnants
IN the cities, newspaper publishers, and
others who have dealings with country
people, would be much benented II MS
bill became law, anu 80 WOuiu tno ScuA-
try people themselves.
BE STILL FURTHER EXTENDED.
The Postmaster General has srecommend-
al that the postal-note system be still fur
ther extended. but Mr Alexander is Of the
opin,op that his plan is far to be preferred
to Mr. Wanamaker's.
Mr.. Alexanders bill has certainly fea-
lures OF novelty about IL. and II w,il soon
be considered by the Post Office Commit
tee. of which Mr.. Henderson, OF North
Senator Vance looks greatly improved
bv his seven months sojourn IN Europe.
He tells his friends that he. feels much
Younger in spirit since he had such long
rest. He looks 20 per cent. better than he
did before he went away. The genial
Senator has received very cordial well
come by his associates.
VIRGINIA BILLS.
A large percentage OF the private bills
so far introduced by the Virginia mem oers
relate to claims, and Mr.. Meredith mas put
cation. He has one that includes the war
claims of nearly 100 citizens of Loudoun
county. The same bill has been introduced
also in the Senate this session by MI. Bar
bour. The measure - one that nas been
before every Congress- for twenty years.
| The people mentioned Lost their property
during one OF 6heTidan's disastrous and
| devastating raids through the county, and
- they all claim to have been ioyai TO the

they think they ought 70 be paid tor their
