Stewart wero Washington, December 22.—Senator liitobcock has addressed the following letter to Senator Edmunds, Chairman of the Judiciary Committee : United States Senate Chamber, > Washington, Dec. 20, 1878. ) Bear Sir:—Regretting the failure of the Senato to act prior to the holidays re cess, upon the bill repealing the bankrupt law, so far, at least, as to wipe out the present oppressive fea tures of involuntary bank ruptcy, and fearing that Buch failure will aggravate financial suffering and add others to the already long list of viotims, I desire to obtain your opinion of the feasibility of so amending the bankrupt law as to make the repeal of the oppres sive feauturos retroactive, and also your opinion as to the probability of the early passage of suck an amend ment. Your reputation as a lawyer and the position as chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, will give weight to your opinion, and such opinion, if affirmatively given upon eaoh of the propositions above named, will, I think, go far to relieve publio anxiety and pre vent useloss and oppressive legislation. Faithfully yours, P. W. lIlTCHCOK. To Hon. G. E. Edmunds, Chairman Senato Committee on Judiciary. Senator Edmunds replied us follows: United States Senate Chamber, ) Washington, D. C. Doc. 22, 1873. > Dear Sir I have received your note of the 20th inst., and say in reply, I do not profess to speak for any person but ysolf of course, but by so speaking I have 3 hesitation in sayiug that any provision that may bo rnado respecting the forcing of debtors into involuntary bankruptcy, and the proceedings thereupon will, so • as my voice goes,be retroactive in such ay that no person will gain anything by any oppressive steps towards the debtors pending the consideration of the question, all such matters relate to remedies which Congress may tuko away altogether if it pleases. There will be no impropriety in making any wise provisions which regu lates the proceedings to just ends and upply to tho pending cases, and I feel groat confidouco that such will be the opinion of tho Senate. Very truly yours, Geo. F. Edmunds. Hon. P. M. Hitchcock, U. S. Senate. Washington, December 22.—The Pres ident is expeoted to return to-morrow. Secretary Richardson spends the Christ mas in Bostou.

II. S. SUPREME COURT. THE VIRGINIUS. THE FRESH DENOUNCED AH IN LEAHl'E WITH CAPITAL. A NEW VIEW OF THIN CASE. Cincinnati, December 22.—There were two meetings of laborers to-day. The German meeting denounced the press as being iu league with tho capital ists. Carl Rosa, an Austrian agitator, said the condition of tho workingmon was worse here than .in Germany.

Chicago, December 22.—At a mooting of the workingmon to-day, addresses were made in English, German and Polish, urg ing employment by the city when otkor sources for work failed, otherwise the city should supply tlioir necessities.

Washington, Deo. 21.—It has been known for somo time that tho Spanish Government has submitted evidence with regard to the steamer Virginias aud ber claim to boar the Hag of the United States, and that tho Prosidont had .submitted this evidence to tho Attorney General for his opinion thereou. It seems now to be understood iu official circles that tho At torney General has given the opinion that the vessel had forfeited tbs right to bear the flag of the Unitod States, and that at the time of her capture she was carrying it without a right nnd improperly. Washington, Dec. 22.—Judge Wil liams' opinion covers a column. He argues that the Virginius' papers were ob tained by false pretences and that the title to tho vessel was in alious. NEW YORK. THE CRIMINAL RECORD. A BANKRUPTCY DECISION. Washington, Deo. 22.—The Supreme Court to-day rendered the following de cision : Wilson, assignee in Bankruptcy of Vauderhoff Bros., vs. City Bank of St. Paul—certificate of dooisiou from the Circuit Court fov Minnesota. In this case Vanderlioff Bros., owing the bank, suf fered their entire stook of goods to be seized on an execution on a judgment by default, obtained against them by bank, nnd thus as alleged fraudulently preferred tho bank over their other creditors, against tho provis ions of the bankrupt aot, and the assignee fought to have the proceedings of the sale on execution applied on the claims of all the creditors. On these facts the following questions arose, on which tho Court decided, and they were certified to this Court for answers: First, Whethor or not an intent on the part of tho firm to suffer their property to be takon executions with iutont to give a prefer ence to tho bunk, or with intent to defeat delay the operation of tho bankrupt act, o be inferred from the facts stated; second, whether under tho facts the bank in their proceedings had reasonable cause to boliovo that a fraud on tho bankrupt pbb intended by the firm; and third, whether, under tho circumstanoes, the bank obtained by tho levy and executions a rated lien on the goods as against the assignoo in bankruptcy. In their opinion, the Court say that smoothing more than the passive non-resistance of an insolvent debtor to regulate and adjudicate pro ceedings in which a judgment and execu tion are had. When tho debt is due and he is without just defence to the aotion, it is necessary to show preferment of a creditor, or a purpose to defeat or delay the operation of the bankrupt act; that tho facts that tho debtor under such circumstances does not file a peti tion in bankruptcy is not sufficient ovidonoe of such preference or de sire to defeat tho oporatiou of the act; that through tho judgment of tho credi tors iu such a case, they may know the insolvent condition of tho debtor. His levy and seizure are not void under the circumstances, nor any violation of the bankrupt law ; that a lion thus obtained by him will not bo displaced by subse quent proceedings iu bankruptcy against a debtor, though within four mouths of the filing of tho bill these propositions require tho questions oertified to be an swered, tho first two In the negative aud tho third in the aflirmutivo.
