A MEADOW CASE.
A legal contention that has attracted a
good deal of attention in South Jersey,
where there are tide water meadows and
especially in Salem county, is that Of the
Supawuna Meadow Company in its efforts
to prevent gunners shooting on meadows of
that name in Salem county, aud it is not
unlikely the case will ere long be settled
by the highest courts.
The Supawana Meadows were some years
ago purchased by a number of wealthy men
III Philadelphia who attempted to keep
them as a game preserve. The natives of
that ssction who had always looked on
them as open cunning ground-or water
have not taken kindly to the efforts Of the
new company, and have insisted on what
they term their right to gun on the water
of the State. There has been much minor
legal contention in the past, but the con-
stitutionality of the law under which gun
ners are arrested aud fined has meyer been
thoroughly tested
The last case growing out Of the efforts of
the company to enforce their claims oc-
CURED this month, when on December Z,
Thomas McCarson was arrested and COM
mitted to jail for thirty days for alleged vi
olation of the law, by cunning on the
meadows. McCarson's friends employed
A. II. Swackhamer, Esq, of this city, to
conduct his defence, who at once attacked
the proceedings on techinal grounds and
secured from Justice Swazze, sitting at
Mays Landing last Monday an order for
McCarson's release from Jail.

Not Acquired by the cORsoIidated Road.
 A report published in various papers to the effect that the recent transfer by John H. Starin Of considerable part of his lighterage system to the Lackawanna road, meant also the transfer of the Starin line ot steam boats from this city to New York to the Consolidated road, is pronounced wholly unfounded by Attorney James D. Dewell, who officiated as counsel in the transfer to the Lackawanna road above spoken of. This transfer had ab- solutely nothing to do whatever, said Mir. Dewell when interviewed last evening on the subject. with the Starin line of boats from this city to New York It was simply a transfer of some fifty barges, lighters and tugs to the Lackawanna road, which will do hereafter the lighterage work in and about New York which was done for the road by MT.
