The Ice Recinninc tn Melt.

The warm weather of the past few DAYS
has melted the ice on James river to q con-
siderable extent. and it is breaking up and
thawing in many places. There is no i'm
mediate danger of n freshet, however as
the ice Is from ten tofourteen inches thick,
and unless rain follows the rise in tenn
perature trouble OF this kind will be
averted. As yet no steamers have at
tempted TO break through the ice, but as
every warm day makes it softer it is pro-
babe that vessels will soon be able to
come TO Richmond. The Old Dominion
steamers will make On effort to reach the
city the first part of next week.
The city carts have removed a great deal
Of snow from the main thoroughfares, but
there IS still quantity in the cutters
which should be removed.

THE SUPREME COURT OF APPEALS.
Opinion In the Case of Benton vs.. the
Commopwealth-Notc

The Supreme Court OF Appeals yester-
day decided the case OF Benton against
the Commonwealth by reversing the Judg-
ment of the Circuit Court OF Loudoun
county. The controversy came up on an
appeal from the Loudoun Circuit Court
upon the question as TO the competency
OF benton as a witness IN collateral pro-
ceeding before that court. Benton YVES
some wears back indicted by the County
Court of Loudoun upon an indictment OF
tour counts-each setting forth felony.
The verdict of the jury was We, the
Jury. find the prisoner guilty as indicted
and assess his punishment at Six months
IN jail and a fine of s." Inc Attorney
General vigorously maintained before the
supreme Court that Benton was convicted
merely Of O misdemeanor IN that his
punishment was other than confinement
ia tho penitentiary and was in fact lall
punishment, therefore making the matter
equivalent to a n,isfeynednor.
Hence. Benton. the Attorney
claimed, was a competent witness tor any
matter be might be called upon to testify
IN. ,
The opposite contention was maintained
by Mr. X. X. Fauntieroy, one OF Rich
mond's Young attorneys, who made
strong presentation OF his side OF TINS case,
when, according to the OPINION, was one
OF first impression IN tins State.
The point determined BIZ the Supreme
Court was that lurles may commute
felony to jail and fine. and In so dong not
usurp legislative powers to classify CRIME.
This was Mr.. Fauntleroy's first appear
ance at the bar of this tribunal. This case
was similar to the one against Dir. Jack
Andrews. recently tried III the Hustings
Court, IN which MIR. tauntleroy was coun-
sci for the prisoner.
