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 ets : Header's Third Military Dis., 1 [Dept, Georgia, Alabama and Florida), l Atlanta, Ga#, March fi, 1808. ) General Orders No. 35.
