C. W. Hull*.-Perjury or Forgery
Involved.
From the Norfolk Post. 2dth<
Mr. BulU, the defendant, is a lawyer,
who came to Norfolk during tho war,
and rented a bouse from - Mrs. Tunis. In
1864. He continued io bold the premises
throughout the following year, 18US, atan
advanced rent. But, in July last, the
dwelling was leased to Mr. Gilbert C.
Walker, for the year 186G-^and Mr. Buttz
was notified of the fact. Previous to this
time, according to the evidanco of Mr.
Buttz himself, ho aud the plaintiff had
been an friondly terms, and he was in the
habit of visiting her house, frequently, as
ho says, “taking wine with her.’ 1 But,
when they fall out About the house, Buttz
discovered wlml be suddenly conceived to
b« a vary grave omission on the part of
Mrs. Tunis. That lady had actually for
gotten or neglected to affix the necessary
revenue stamps to the receipts she had
given U> him fur house rent. This Vas a
great oversight on tho part of the lady,
and one which would auhject her to a
prosecu.ion for violating the intarnal rev
enue laws, and the payment of a heavy
line on each receipt. Whether pronpted
by motives of patriotism or revenge, it is
difficult to say; but Mr. Buttz declared it
to be an impulse of purest patriotism. lie
took the receipts to Colonel B.qoe, collec
lor of revenue, and iusisted thiil the lady
should ho prosecuted. The Collector at
once summoned Mrs. Tunis before him to
an.-wer for the offence. Bhe pleaded igno
ranee of utiy wrung intention, end lbe
Collector condoned tho act by allowing
her to affix the stamps then and there, is
his presence.
Subsequently Mr. Buttz caljvd, and op
being informed of the manner in which
tho matter had been compromised, de
clared that it did not satisfy him; that he
would lay tho case before the authorities
at WashiugluD t have the law enforced,
and demand bis half of tho Buss assessed,
which ho would he entitled to ax jpforaier.
As he bad to incur the odium, it was but
proper that he should receive compensn-
lion. This ended the mutter in regard to
lbe revenue stamps and Mr. Butts’s
revenge. Now comes the question of
forgery. ,
On the trial a receipt was produced by
Mr. Buttz signed by Mrs. Tunis, purport
ing to have Veen given fur the month of
January, to which is added tho clause,
"For the house rentod for the years 1866
and 1806 to C. W. Bnttz.” This last clauso
was held to have the binding force of a
lease or contract, as it was signod by the
owner of the property. The history of
this receipt is rather interesting. The
theory of the plaintiff's counsel was that
Mr. Buttz bad interled this clauxe after
the lady had signed the original paper ;
and in support of this theory Mrs. Tunis
made oath to the effect that when sho
signed that receipt in her own houso,
wuore it was made out by Buttz, the latter
clausa was not contained io it. On the
contrary, Buttz, when put upon the stand
to testify ki his wwa behalf affirmed that
tho redeipl was g'-nuine, and had not hern
tampered with Thus the matter stood
when the evidence closod.
There was no now principle involved in
tho suit, but there was considerable hard
.wearing. We have laid a plain statement
of the faots, as diiolosad by the evidence,
befure eur readers In order tbit they may
form ibeir own opinion as to the amount
of forgery, perjury and revenge thire may
be coutatuoii in them.

Death of Hen. Ashbury Hull.
Our c mmuhity was sta-tled Thursday
morning last, by the announcement of the
death of'the Hon. Ashbury IIuP one of
our oldeet and most influential citizens.
M Hull Was known throughout the
8’-. -having narticipaied in her logisla-
tivpdellherati Jnskor many years, and held
giiR>y ijpportabt trusts. H» Wat for many
years cashier of the State Bank at this
place, served once or twice as Presiden
tial E.ector, and was, at the timo of his
desjUv Prmlfand qt the Southern Mutual
Imnfndtrti rVWifntny and Secretary of the
Board of T(iute|«of the University of
Georgia. The last time he served tho peo
ple in e representative capacity was in
18ttO-’Gl, in the State Convention.
The deceased wrv distinguished for
strong common sense, conservatism, and
abqVegll,,-for kitilindipg integrltv, lofty
patriotism ana unaffected piety. Ilia good
example will be felt many years to come in
the fcommweily where he lived so long,
and bia memory cherished bv our whole
people. The manner of his death was il
lustrative of ilia (whole tenor of his life.
Ife Heft Tcwlinr) tfie Ptble! Ill his U“tiai
health, he hold family prayers that morn
ing, at the conclusion of which lie
resumed -|he leading of the Biblo,
and .ehiloi thus engaged Mono he died
without a struggle or a groan, and was
found sitting in his chair. What a glori
ous eqdlo the pious Christian I “Let mo
die tht® death W the righteous, and lot my
last end bo like his.’’
The funeral oxoheises occurred at tho
Methodist church xm Friday morning,
conducted by ;Dr. Lipscomb, Chancellor
of the li nivorsity. Tho targe editico was
crowded to ilk utmoit c.ipnoily—our places
of business w®rhall ciosi d—ns a voluntary
tribute of rispeot to the memory of the
deceased,—Alliens Watchman, 31 si.
STAMrs on Subscriptions.—Wo find
in an exchango tho following roported de
cision of the Commissioner of Internal
Revenue:
In the esse of a subscription list, where
the heading involves a promise to pay the
sum annexed, the putty signing is liable
to the Blamp du‘ y required on promissory
notes unloas he pays lbe sum annexed to
his namo at the timo of signature, in
which qgsutlie signing nf his name should
be regaraed as a more part of a memo
randum.
Where the beading of a list involvos a
condition on which the subscribers will
pay the sums annexed, then each signa
ture it held to create an agreement, aub-
ject to a duty of live cents.
This decisio* applies to those who sub
scribe for books sold by canvassers, and to
subsetip^gpgj^jrj^haritahla purpose?.
Profound'Sumr. -There ure several
cases eo record of a prolonged abstinence
of food, but they are meetly of an old
date, and one, at loast, after much vuiu
watching, was found to be a client. Wiiut
credit ciiii be given to Dr. Hlnnd’a aluto-
mont, We ar® not in a position tn decide ;
but we may at uli events believo that ho
himself is a tirm beliover in it. The ac
count he gave ivua read at tho French
Academy,' q«d in substance it rond as
follows i
“A young woman, twenty yeara of ago,
fell usleep and slept for 6fty days. This
wts idIHM, and (milling of the kind re-
ourred until the beginning of 1803, when
she suddenly fell usleep again, and did
not wake till Marsh, I8(i;t. Kvry imag
inable effort was made to rouse her, but
ithout effcot; she continued to remain
usleep without showing the slightest sign
of being distuibed. Her breathing wus
almost imperceptible, the pulse low, tho
skin rosy aud fresh. Bho neither ute nor
drank, and yet there uppoured to he a
slight tendency toWurd fattening.”
On reading Ids first paper, tho Doctor
entered into some speculations concern
ing sleep, wbioh are very imperfectly re
ported. It seems that no distinguished
throe kinds of Bleep—the diurnal, the an
nual and the metumorphio. We have
all had experience of the first; the second
corresponds with (lie hybernation of cer
tain animals; the third is transitory, ns
in the case .of tho trunsfermutiou of a
caterpillar inti) a butterfly. Sloop he
considers to be a peculiar form ot life,
and the primary condition under which
iifo is manifested. Everybody will not
agree with him in his theory, but bis
views uro worthy of attention.
Subsequently he rnude unother state
ment on the seme subject, und iu con
firmation of it ho quoted the names of
other doctors— Segalas, Dumond, Dsr-
sonville, Fuel and others. For an ontiro
year a pidy presented the sumo symp
tom's asMadamtilacIcod and Louise Du
rand—that is to say, uniinul life null,
orgauic life good, but reduced to a min
imum, the pulso slow, breathing almost
imperceptible, the llosh soft and fresh,
no (limimiiitkl of flush, butun absolute
insensibility and general contraction.
At the first every effort was made to
awaken them; or to keep them from
falling to sleep again when they were
awake; but finding the utter uselessness
of this treitiuoit, the doctor thought it
waweruej tojoobdiiue it, and sutfured the
lady firshiolerA a te to sleep as much as
she was inclined, its salutiiry influence
having been speedily disceruod by him
on tho two first occasions of her falling
asleep, they having followed on two se
vere attacks of IIIlcss, attended by in
tensely uoutu suffering. Tho question
why sleep should enjoy tlio privilege of
rendering persons insensible to pain, und
ot preserving them fr» in tho loss of flesh,
is one which men, with ull lheirsoieutifio
knowledge, mm vary unli > fly to solvo.—
