Where a bill wna filed alleging that in I8t>8 the complainants had purchased of the defendants a tract of land, described in the deed as containing 350 acres, more or less, for five thousand dollars, half of which was paid in cosh, the balance se cured by a note and mortgage, on which they have paid over 81250, leaving 81250 still due; that proceedings had been com menced to foreclose the mortgage for the remaining 81250; that defendants hud falsely and fraudulently represented said tract of land to oontain 350 acres, aud complainants bought the same on said representations, but by a recent survey they had ascertained that there not more than 280 acres, and that the defendants were insolvent The prayer of the bill was for an injunction to restrain the fore closing of the mortgage, a cancellation of the deed to them and of their mort gage, that a decree may be made for the money they have already paid ou the land, and that the land lie held subject to such decree for the money: Held, That, as there was no allegation in the bill to show that the precise quan tity of 350 acres of land was a strict in gredient in tho trade, there wus no ground for rescinding the trade, and as the reme dy at law, by pleading the deficiency, is sufficient, equity has no jurisdiction.

Roach will be supported in the ensuing Democratic Nomination for Aldermen, by Many Democeatw. perty, on the following statement of facts Dupree obtained a judgment against James M. Chandler, administrator, and Susan Chandler, adm’xof Jaa. O. Chand ler, deceased. Three other plaintiffa had obtained judgments against the ad ministrator and administratrix of James O. Chandler, which were of younger date than Dupree’s judgment. Executions had issued on these judgments and were levied on the property of the intestate, which was sold by the Shcrifffor the sum of $1,990. The representatives of Du pree claim that the money arising from the sale of the intestate's property in the hands of the Sheriff should first be ap- S lied in satisfaction of their judgment, le same being of prior date. The other plaintiffs in fi. fa claim that the money in the hands of the Sheriff should bo distributed and paid pro rata to all the executions in the hands of the Sheriff, withont regard to tho dates of the res pective judgment*, inasmuch as the notes on which the judgmeuts were founded, were of equal dignity a> tho time of in testate’s death. The Court decided that the money in the Sheriff's hands should be paid pro rata to all the executions in the Sheriff s hands, without regard to the priority of tho dato of Dupree’s jndg meut; whereupon, the counsel for Du pree’s representatives excepted: Where a judgment is entered against an execute or administrator, who issued in his representative character, except when he pleads nc unques accentor, or a release to himself ; or plcnc mlminislrarit, or plcnc administrarit printer, aud his pica it found against him, such judgment must bo entered tie bonis teslaloris. In this case, so far as appears from the re cord, tho judgments wero all rendered against the property of tho intestate in the hands of his administrator, without any plea of a want of assets in their hands to pay all the intestate’s debts, nnd the legal presumption is, that they hnd sufficient assets in their hands for that purposa The property of the intestate waa sold by the Sheriff under executions which issued on these judgments, aud tho question is, ns between these judgment creditors, who has the prior lien upon tho money in the Sheriff's hands, arising from the sale of the intestate's property as between each other. The administra tors of the intestate were not parties to this controversy; but it is simply a con test between judgment creditors who havo obtained their judgments since the intestate's death, as to the priority of their respective judgments. If the bill hnd been filed by the administrators to marshall the assets of the intestate’s es tate, on tho ground of insolvency or other reason, then the debts of tha es tate would have been decreed to be paid according to their dignity, at tho time of tho mtestate's death; or, if under tho provisions of our code, tho junior judg ment creditors had, by a petition with jiropcr allegations, made it judicially ap- Jioar to the Court, that tho intestate's es tate was insolvent, or shown some good reason why the money in the Sheriff's hands, should not be paid to the judg ments according to their legal priority, but according to the dignity of tho debts at tho time of the intestate's death; then the question us to tho dignity of the debts might have been properly consid ered. In order to defeat a legal lien, some good reason must bo shown, for it is a general rule that when different per sons hold a lien on tho same property, of the somo dignity, then the oldest lien shall have tho preference. As between the judgment creditors, in this oase, the oldest judgment was entitled to bo first paid, there being nothing in the record going to show any reason why the debts of the intestate should be marshaled and paid according to their dignity at the timo of his death, or that there was not sufficient assets in tho hands of tho ad ministrator to j»y all tho intestate’s debts, our judgment is confined to the statement of foots made in tho rocoid of this cans. Judgment of tho Court below rovensod. Robert Toombs for plaintiff; W. G. Johnson and Jno. 0. Reid, contra. Jacob H. Lowery va. Jnlia E. Davidson, et al.. Executin'*. Trover. WARNER, J. Trover to recover tho value of 28 bales of cotton. Tbo plaintiffs sued, as tho executor aud executrix of Wm. Davidson, who died in the State of South Carolina. The plaintiffs had filed, in the Clark’s office of the Superior Court, an exempli fication from the record of tho Court of Probate of S. S., showing the probate of the will of the testator, and the ap pointments of plaintiffs oa his cxeout jib iu that State, and relied on the same as ovi- douoeof their right and title to main tain an action against the defendant, in the Courts of this State, under the pro visions of the 2414 aeo. of th« Code. This record waa objected to on tho ground that it waa not certified to by a clerk. The record was certified to by the Judge of Probate, in which ha Betas that by the law of that State there ia no derk of hia Court; that in his offioial capacity as Judge he is also ex officio in the law, the sole clerk thereof, and that this teetinio- tbo evidence in (Explanation of the in dorsements on the oolton receipts, whieh mode the cotton subject to the demand of Davidaon, or to hia order. The indorsements on the back of the receipt are in the foliowing words: “Deliver to T. M. Johnson, lv or order. W. Davidson.” The evidence of Johnson shows that tho indorsements on tho back of the cotton receipts, were only intended to give him authority as the agent of Davidson, to receive the cotton, that he had no personal interest in it, aud ncted only as agent This did not vest the title to tho cotton in John son as against Davidson, for whom he was ootikg merely as agent, or as against bis legal representatives. Then* was no error iu rejecting the books of the defendant in evidence for tbe purpose of showiug that the receipts for the oottou were given to Davidson instead of to Davis, by mistake under the jileadinge and evidence in this case. If a defendant in a court of law, seeks to avoid his contract on the ground of mis take, he must, by his pleading, allege the S ounds of-mistake, ss fully in a court of v ss he is required to do iu a conrt of equity, ro as to give the adverse party notice, before ho can introduce evidence of such mistake, in order to avoid tho contract on that ground. There ia no allegation in this plea, that the oontract set north in the receipts was the result either of accident or mistake, so os to enable him to avail himself of that equi table ground of defeDoe in a court of law. Besides, (it is not very apparent how defendant’s books, containing his own acts, would conduce to show hismia- take in giving the receipts for the cotton to Davidson. It may be tme. It may be liuv that tho defendant's books show that the storeage on the cotton was paid by Davis, which might have been done by tho agent of Davidaon, and the fact that the receipts given to Davis by the defendant for the storeage, are now found in tbe bonds of Davidson's execu tors would seem to look that way, al though ihu defendant makes the discov ery of thkt-iact a ground for a new trial, as being newly discovered evidence. In view of tho facts of this case, ss disclosed by the record, we are unable to find any legal ground on which to reverse the judgment of tho court below. Jadgmeut affirmed. C. and Jno. C.

Oottou sales for future delivery, Bears Helping Each Other, A gentleman was onco making inquiries in Russia about the method of catching bears in that country. He was told that, to entrap them, a pit was dug several feet deep/ nnd after covering it over with thrf, leaves, etc., somo food was placed on the top. The bear, if tempted by tho bait, easily fell into the snare, “Rut.” he added," If four or five hap pen to get in together, they all get out again." “How is that?” asked the gentleman. "They form a sort of ladder by stepping on each other’s shoulders, and thus make their escape.” “How does the bottom one get out?’ “Ah! these bears, though not posses sing a mind and soul such os God lias given na, yet can feel gmtitnede; and they won't forget the one who had been the chief means cf procuring their liborty. Scampering off, they fetch tho branch of a tree, which they let down to their poor brother, enabling him speedily to join them in the freedom in which they re joice." Sensible bear, wo should say, arc a grout deal better than some people that wo hear about, who never help anybody but themselves.—The Carrier Dure, A Wedding Suit. The Washington Chronicle has the following interesting incident growing ont of tbe Chicago fire: Tho fire in Chicgo has been the causo of many touching incidents. A young man of this city,whom we will oall Frank E. J., a few days Binoe received a letter from Miss Helen D., (the daughter of a well-known nnd before the fire an influ ential dealer in grain in that city,) to whom he was engaged to be m&rriod next week, (Tuesday,) in which, after describ ing all tho sutterings slio had undergone since they wero drivon out of tlieir house late at night by the devastating flames, says Onr wedding will have to be postponed for at least one year, as I am in no con- diton at present to be married; not that I love you less than ever, for you know that better than I can tell you, but that we have no house to livo in and my father is rendered almost destitute by tho tire. His placo of business was, as you know, in tho burnt district,and was swept away in company with a number of others the second night of the fire. Wo expect to have anew house boiltin a few weeks, just around the corner from where we formerly resided, -near stre ct and avenue, 1 am very glad you did not oome to this city when yon intended, for then yon would be as the rest of us, hulf scared to death. Father was up at the time and saved two suits of clothes— tbe one he had on and another—but we, that is, Mary Jeneatte, and L were less lucky, You would be surprised to sec me, the morning after we were driven out of the house, with a pair of Jim's old pants on, one slpper, one shoe, and a warterproof cloak. This was indeed, my complete outfit, and it was not till yester day that I received somo other clothes fromc my cousin Mary, who sent thorn from Cincinnati. That would have made a splendid wedding suit, wouldn’t it? “The city is building np livoly. Work is plenty, but a number of laborers have left this, tho doomed city. “Frank, please oome on and seo us soon as you can; I want to see you vory bad. Some of tho contributions from Wash- ington have arrived. God bless your Mr. R. T. Merrick, who, for the sub scribera, sends them. They perform a great good, sad are needed. We are at present boardingwith Mrs. E L., on street, where we will stay till onr new houso is built.” Tho remainder of tho letter is of a private character. Congressman J. R. Beck reports to the Louisville Ledger that the result of the Kuklm Committee's investigation at Huntsville, was a complete vindication of tho false charges made by her eno mies. General Crawford, tho United States District Attorney and Cornmia- sioncr, and leading men of both parlies concur that no State in tho Union ex hibits a more satisfactory, law-abiding and peaceable condition. Even isolated cases of disorders wero substantiated only by men who, for two dollars a day, would swear to anything. Professional Carhs. *" TH09. N.
