The Streets win Be Opened.

The suit Of the town Of C0lfax, to
open the streets, has been decided In
favor Of the town by the supreme
court, and was among the decisions
handed down on Monday last. Mir.
Jno. A. Williams was counsel on be-
half Of Colfax. and managed the case
with zeal and skin. True, he had
justice and right on his side, but It
isn't every time that q lawyer can

gust body that they will agree with
him, and he deserves credit for his ex-
ceedingly strong presentation of the
case. The following Is the syllabus
Of the decision of the supreme court:
Mary Earl Taylor Calhoun vs. Town

tenth Judicial District, Parish Of
Grant. Syllabus: Where streets and

Of the lots and blocks, by IN act
wherein they are designated simply
by the numbers they bear on the
map. operates dedication to the
public Of the streets on which the
lots and blocks abut. Judgment Of

The letter Of Mr. Hudson Of Detroit, with
your Endorsement. came duly to hand. do
not think there is any serious danger in
the direction to which he refers, though
am receiving what I suppose to be the
usual number Of threatening letter, on that
subject. Assassination can no more be
guarded against than death by lightning.
and 1t is not best to worry about either.
expect to go to Washington before long to
close up some household anairs, and shall
expect to see you. With kind regards. am
very truly yours, ]. A GARFIELD.
Honorable John Sherman. Washington,
n CO."
