C*-Oprrailon.—ra«b.
An able article on cooperative ahopkeep.
ing, in the London Spectator, says that
under the credit system no retail business
can be made to pay unless iftjr per cent,
adtanre on wholesale prices Tsfbtained for
the goods disposed of. 8o it would seem as
if “Oash down" were the maiu element of
luccess in coOperation.
I'ominunisiu In the Shop.
Interchange of tools and other appliances
in the shop may be made either very pleas
ant, or a source of great annoyance. The
“dealing" of tools is often practiced, but
only by those who not only forget their
duties as mechanics, but their honor as men.
No right-minded mechanic will refuse
assistance to his fellow workman, either in
advice or in the loan of tools ; but il i( the
height of impudence to reject the advice
without giving a reason,,or to returnbor
rowed tools in a condition unfitted lor ser
vice. There must be more or less of the
apostolic idea of communism in the shop ;
“all things must be in common” to a certain
extent; but it is an evidenc? of a mean
nature when the workman fs willing to use
the tools of his fellow and return them in a
shape unfit for further service until repaired.
The habit of leaving a borrowed tool, when
done with, where last used, is almost crimi
nal. This negligence—to call it by no
harsher name—is very common, but il is
dishonest a’s well as careless. Many valua.
ble tools are thus injured, and sometimes
lost. The workman who is so neglectful
and careless can hardly be deemed hduest
There is, or should be, a sentiment of honor
in this respect among workmen, and we are
certain that a simple allusion to the matter
will induce all careless mechanics to “re
form their ways.”
“Round Dances” Denounced.
Archbishop Spalding, of Baltimore, the
highest dignitary of the Roman Catholic
Church ou this continent, has published a
pastoral letter which takes strong ground
against the so-called “ rouud dance.” We
quote:
“In this connection we consider it to be
our duty to warn our people against those
amusements which may easily become to
them an occasion of sin, aud especially
against those fashionable dances which, as
at present carried on, are revolting to every
feeling of delicacy and propriety, and are
fraught with the greatest danger to morals.”
Cotton Claims at Washington.
As many of our readers are personally
interested in claims of this description, we
invite their attention to the following piece
of information connected with such claims
at Washington, which has been communica.
ted to the New York Times by its correspon
dent at the national capital :
“The business of recovering claims for
cotton captured and seized as abandoned by
Treasury agents during and since the war
has grown into such large proportions that
Congress is compelled to legislate against it
in self-defence. There has been pending in
the Senate for some time a bill to cover into
the Treasury the entire proceeds of such
cotton, amounting, exclusive of what has
been successfully reclaimed, to over thirty
millions of dollars. This bill passed the
Senate to day. By its operation it will be
placed with the Treasury cash proper, where
as heretofore it has been standing to the
credit of the fund from which it was derived.
It cau now only be obtained from the Treas
ury by regular warrant in satisfaction of
any claim allowed by the Court of Claims.
The final passage of this bill will prove a
severe check upon cotton claimants, who, tt>
be successful, must pass a very severe ordeal
as to their position and record during the
war, before the Court of Claims will enter
tain their cases.”
Supreme Court Decision*.
We take the following Decisions in the
Supreme Court, from the Milledgeville Re
corder :
C. F. Me Cay vs F. C. Barber <!• Son—As
sumpsit, from Richmond,
Walker, J.—Where B. purchased from
M. certain overdue coupons, which had
originally been attached to certain bonds
issued by the city of Montgomery, Ala., with
out authority of law, and were therefore
wholly worthless, aud B. paid eighty cents
on the dollar for them, being the price of
good coupons at the time, and the sale was
made without any commentation whatever
of the coupons by the seller, both parties
being bankers and brokers, dealing in bonds,
coupons, and other negotiable securities.
On suit being brought by B. to recover back
the money paid for the coupons, the Court
charged the jury, “that if they fouud that
the coupons were void, ab initio, the plaintiff
had aright to recover —that the ignorance
of the defendant of the fact that the coupons
were void, did not affect the plaintiff’s right
to recover, and that the doctrine of caveat
eruptor, in such a case as the one before the
Court upon a negotiable contract, only ap
plies to defeats which can be discovered by
inspection”: Held, that the charge was
substantially correct, and that inasmuch as
justice has been done, the verdict should
stand, notwithstanding some slight inaccu
racies in the charge. The defendant having
received the money of plaiutiff without giv
ing any valuable consideration therefor, is
notin equity and good conscience, entitled
to keep it. Judgment affirmed.
Judge Harris dissenting.
W. Robert McCay, for Plaintiff in error.
H. V. Johnson, for Defendant in error.
Johii\T. Floyd vs. Isaac Cheney — Complaint,
from lalbott.
Walker J. —Where a promissory note
was given in consideration of “Confederate
notes” borrowed, and a portion of the evi
dence showed that the note was to be paid
in the same currency ; and evidence was
introduced to show the value of Confederate
money at the date of the note and at its
maturity, and at no other time, and the
Court charged the jury that “they might
ascertain the gold value of Confederate
money at the time of the making of the
contract sued upon, or at the time of the
maturity, and adopt either, according to their
opinion of the equity of the case”: Held, that
the charge under the evidence wat correct;
and that if the Court had charged us to the
value of Confederate money at any other
time, it wonld have been error, as there was
no evidence to justify any such charge.
What ifas the real contract between the
parties, was a question for the decision of
the jury from the evidence; and there being
sufficient evidence to sustain the verdict, the
Court did right to refuse anew trial.—
Judgment affirmed.
Collection of Taxes.
The following Order has been issued by
General Meade, and explains itself fully. It
is commended to the attention of our read

Rheumatism Cured by Magnetism I
Augusta Hotel, March Gth, 1868.
This certifies that I have been a great
sufferer with Rheumatism for five years,
my left ankle being much swollen, very
stiff and painful. I was treated twice,
only, by Dr. Roberts, at the Augusta Hotel,
Feb. 18tli and 20lh, 1868, and now have
not one symptom of Rheumatism or pain in
my body. All the medicine I had taken
seemed to make me worse, and I never had
any relief until treated magnetically. People
may laugh —but I have no more Rheumatic
pains—that’s so.
I work in Augusta Hotel.
