For some cause, known only to the

A. 0. and A. A. Trammell vs. R. H. and
J. E. Marks.—Injunction.
M< KAY, J.
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.

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.

StonexvntI Jackson's Sunday
School.
A visitor u iff be struck, oa Sunday
afternoon, at the crowd of negro boys
and girls winding tlicir way to the Pres
byterian church iu Lexington, Va. H
he goes he will see a colored Sunday
School, superintended by Cul. J. T. ii
Preston, Professor iu Virginia Military
Institute. If he asks about tbe school be
will be told: “This is Stonewall Jackson’i
old school.” This colored Sunday school
was organized by Stonewall Jackson when
he was Professor in the Virginia Military
Institute!. He took the deepest interest in
its success (never going to it or from it
withont earnest, secret prayer,) and when
colled into the army he expressed himself
more loth to leave his Sunday school than
any of his other pulilio duties. His
interest continued to the day of hia death,
and he was never known to write a letter
to Lexington witliout making special in
quiry after his colored Sunday school.—

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.
