The de- fenuant demurred to the bUl on the ground that this clause of the testator’s wi.l waf* void under me laws of this State at tue ti:n<- of maktug it aud at the lime of the death of ;be te»i>itor. The Court sustained demurrer and refused to grant pal debtor until the bar of the statute of lim rations has attached, as between them, docs not discharge the security if he has been sued in time. The surety is not dam aged by the delay since, if he has to pay the debt, he can recover from the principal in the implied contract to Jioid him harmless, and the right to sue does mot exist in this implied ontract until the money be in fact j)aid by the security. 2. When in a suit to recover the purchase raonev of’some mules, the evidence showed that tbe vendor made false representations as to the age of^ie mules, and that the vendee had reHeift^Htd acted upon said representa tions; it w:t? error in the Court to charge suit unless it further ap-teared that he could not at the time have discovered the truth by using the ordinary caution of a prudent trader. Jn a suit against the securities to a promis sory note, the principal not having sued, it is not a good objection to the competency of tbe payee in the note as a witness on the trial to show that the principal contractor is •lead, and this b specially true if the securi ties were present at the contract and were sworn as witnesses on the trial.

The 4th section of that Ac. tied res that it shall be liberally construed :o tttVct accountability nud payment from debtorsuf the road. The 971st i-xetion of tin: Code declares that “all laws heretofore enacted having a special or local applicali m to raid road, an-1 in force at the time of the adoption of this Code, are kept in force, unless herein repealed express ly or by implication.” Can any one doubt that it was the clear and manifest intention of the Legislature that tl ere should not be any Judicial interference with the collection of claims due the State by ihc defaulting officers of the ro id ? But, it is said, if there is not ldicial interference, the complainants will >e remediless. The 7th section of the Act before cited, jioiuts out tlie remedy which negatives the idea that it wis to !»e by judi- ;ii interference. The principle is that the must collect h«T revenue f**r the sup port of Government through the a lion of the Ex *cui»vc D;-j>:irl’Uv*nt thereof, whether derived from taxes,or fr«un lier other; sources *>f revenue, without any judicial interfer ence therewith. The Courts will not pre sume that the Mute in the exercise of her sovereign prerogative in the collector! of her revenue, will do injustice to any of her citizens for her own benefit. Tue com- plaiuanta at the tun • they signed the official bonds of their principal must be presumed to have domes' with a full knowledge of the law applicable to their liability thereon, and ns to tlie manner of its enforcement against tl.B.n for the default of their princi pal. 'The issuing the executions by the Coinptroll.*r General in this ca«e being the » of the Executive D. jiartment of the .)vernni**nt, having tbe e\cl«.-ive jurisdic- tioii over that ►ubject matter, the Courts have no legal right judicially to interfere with the exercise of that jurisdiction for the reasons allecnl, either »u t ie original bills of the complainant, or in their amended bills, but on the c»*ntraiy, are expressly prohibited irom ill and testament, deed, whether by way trust or otherwise, contract agreement, or stiptilation, or other instrument in writing, or by parol, made and executed for the purpose of effecting, or indeuvoring to effect the man umission of auy slave, or slaves, either direct ly i y conferring, or attempting to confer free dora on such slave or slaves, indirectly, or virtually, by allowing and securing, or at tainting to allow, and secure, to such slave or sfiye*, the right or privilege of working for his, her or themselves free from the cou- trol of the master or owner of such slaves, or of enjoying the profits of bis, her or their labor, or skill, shall be and the same are hereby declared to be utterly null and void.” The complainant’s who were slaves at the time of toe death of the testator arc now seeking to enforce that clauseof the testator’s will which conveyed the two lots of land to Jones in trust for their use and benefit^ This clause of the testator s will must be construed under the law sxs it existed at the time of his death. WhiUt w: have labored to carry out the intention of tmr-tastator, au*l to secure the projterty for the t&acfil of the complainants, if it could be done consistently with the law, 4h11, we aroJorctd to come to the conclusion tbtf the m-nulaftsy^^quircniiffils of the statutes of thill Slaw?wMch must control the ‘question, leaves us no ur^grcuon but to do iha, third clause of Tlip testator’s will aavoid.

This wus a bill fi ed by the complainants against the defendants praying for aa injunc tion to restrain Austin Brightaupt ami his wile Rose, i*ersons of color, from exercising acts of ownership over a certain city lot in the city of Macon, or further building there on on the ground that there is a clause in the deed conveying the lot to Htephens by the luinnnta, dated 5th March. 3272, uu- complainants,, der whom it is alleged the defendants claim title, in the following words, “On the express un ierstanding and agreement on the part of said Alexander U. Stephens, that tbe lot of land so conve; :*d is never jto be sold or occupied by negroes.” We are inclined to the opinion that the first deed executed by 3Irs. Anth »ny to Stephens with the full knowledge nud consent of her hus band, would have estopped him from setting up a claim or title to the land, and that Stephens and those claiming under him ac quired a goal title to the lot as against the complainants under that deed, wholly inde- pcndenl of the subsequent deed executed the 4th March, 1872, containing the allcg«**I re striction. The defendant, Austin Brightaupt, deni *9 all knowledge of the restriction con tained *n the deed of the 4th of March, 1872, when he purchased and paid for tlie lot, anti il appears that he went forward and built h house on the lot before the complainants took any steps to restrain him. The words con tained in the deed of the 4th of March, are words of covenant, and not words of condi tion; and the evidence of the insolvency of the defendants is not at all satisfactory. In view of the facts disclosed in the record of this case, we will not interfere with the exer cise of the sound discretion of the presiding Judge of the Comt below in refusing to grant the injunction prayed for.

The same role should govern here us in a motion for a new trial. 3. To set aside an awaid on the ground of fraud in one of the arbitrators, the fraud must be clearly and distinctly shown. 4. Wheie there is a controversy between guardian and ward and “all matters aud things growing out of and connected with s ti J guardianship ” are submitted to arbtra-i tion it is not an excess of authority on the part of lhe arbitrators to cancel by their award a q^irivcn by the ward to the guar dian in his^Edividuul character for money received from him. $f5. To justify a Court in setting aside an $tvard on the ground of mistake, the mistakei whether of law or faet, must be gros3 and palpable. 31 ere error of judgment iu the ar bitrators is not a sufficient ground for setting aside the award, 41st Ga^ 17. ^ 6. Where three arbitrators are selected by the parties and oi9 conceiving hiouclf have been selected as umpire expressed no opinion on the pointa submitted except where the others disagree, bit signs the award with the others, it i^douhirqfcjf the tniS award can be set aside on tff15 ground Cer* } J lima Sdatod r£o#;tion of w hich ou are aware, between ll Impress, the former resnl j arpit ^ witness tfit shoplift own Mkcouduct in ft it be misconduct/' Hestana? ma fnntinir with a tlirrtr Mtta/tttn ZjU this respect, i impeach verdict lo which he 7.

A verdict merely setting aside the award, and going no further, is incomplete, and entitles the complainant to a new trial.

This is necessary lo give the Slate authori ties, who cannot proceed solely in rein iu such a case, jurisdiction.

President Thiers is giving proof that he at^ast believes in the danger of a BonajnutHt restoration, and has manifested this fear hv his recent Arbitrary order for the expulsion of Prince Napoleon and his wife from Frfti.ce. The facts relating to the arrival of Prir'y. Napoleon in France have been furnished v» me to-day upon the very highest au’hoflty. I make the following extract from tbe Titter which I have retched: “It is impossible to imagine a more illegal and ridicnloua step than that ta ken by 31. Theirs against the 'Prince. An Itiperialist plot has been comred up, the «p!e foundation being that tbe Prince and the Princess Clotbilide, their ch'ldjen and suite, openly entered France from Yroyywhere the Prince’s two sons have been at school, produ cing at Bellegarde proper pH.^s^crts regularly vised by the French consulates of London and Geneva.

The police agents who ought to have watched had, «t seems, con cluded that after passing 3Iaocp their charges were safe for Paris, and hao^one to sleep.

There had been so little notion of .concealment on the journey that the Princes* Clothilde had arranged to visit Paris to see some of her former pensioners in that ci’y. A domicil iary visit was made during the night of Wednesday by the Prefect*Jr the order of 51 Thiers, at the house of hi. Rouher, and police agents were alert Lij^very direction.

Theirs imagines—regret in the slightest degree this incident. The Prince, when* made acquainted by'the agent of the government with the order commanding him to leave France, replied, V I have entered France in virtue of ray rights as a French citizen and shall yield otnjr to force.” His wife, who also received an order of expul sion notwithstanding X. Tfilers had informed the Permanent Committee that it was only the Prince whom he would expel, made an swer os follows; “I quitted Paris on the 4th of September surrounded ay insurgents, who treated me with the utmost respect. I will be glad to have the fact pul on record thaic the government of 3L TWfcrs is less scruptP, lous. If I am to leave France I slAir do so only between two gen d’armes.” This morning the Pari?'papers contain a protest from Prince Nsisulcon against the order expelling him froi* France, notwith standing tii*-passport JAfjcccived from the authorities on the 10th of October, 1871. The Prince declares he will submit the case to the judicial authorities, but in the meantime, to avoid complication, he will retire from the country. In condemning M. Thiers for the step which he has taken in regard to Prince Napoleon, I condemn him not because the step is illegal, but because it ?a foolish, inasmuch as it is a tacit con fession of his fear of Napoleonic influence in France and of . is disbelief in the security and strength of bis own position. Prince Napoleon.it is true, is not only the most intellectual member « f the Bonaparte family, but he is also an artful and an able politician.

Wo see it claimed that the North thus re jects and spurrs the hand of peace, .-^t the excitement and chaos of defeat,' it is easy to err in judging of ita causes. Tbe matter is settled, and ire hare full insure to indulge in a calm retrospection. The history of all successful anus show that the war party has for a long series held control by reason of its success. The Radi cal party brought the late revolution to an end. It has since enjoyed the fruits of iu great victory. It has in the two National elections since the war ended, cleverly player as its trump card the Jssuet of the war and their preservation, ^bey broke constitu tions to whip the war. They will do so to the end of the chapter to preserve their tri umph. And this while at bottom respecting constitutions and esteeming their real value in res] peace. We should be loth to think that a majority of the people of this country contemn con stitutionalism. Yet the North will violate it forever to ho.d on to the fruiU of that war that cost them its wholesale violation aud blood and treasure to su -h an extent. Let us place ourselves in their place, and e may realize the philosophy ot the Radical successes of 1883 and 1873. The thing that has defeated us has been the Northern appre hension of the evil to result from the return to power of Southern sentiment. Not even the great weight of the brains and patriotism of the Radical party leaders, thrown into the scale, not even the adoption ofagreat representative of Northern sectional soirament could overcome the effect of an adroit, persistent, ingenious, devilish appeal to that feeling of sectional apprehension bated upon and growing out of the wir.

In July and August of this summer the ice current held a more catthrly course towards Nova Zemoia and left tbe western balf of tbe sea free from ice, as tbo reports already re ceived from Captain AUinann at the end of August and announced.

The whole sea to the south and east of this land Captain Johnson found entirely free from ice on August 16. On tho 17th of August he anchored near the point of this land in north latitude 79 deg. 8 min., and cast longitude 80 deg. 15 min., for the purpose of fishing and supplying himself with fuel from the immense piles of driftwood which were accumulated along the shore. Landing to explore the land, which he was tbe first to set foot upon, he ascended a mountain near the coast, from which he obtained a view over a wide circuit. He thus discovered that the land musses which, by Captain Altman, had been supposed to be separated by channels into three islands, were ultimately re- uited so as to form a continuous though deeply indented island. There were also a number of small outlying islands. On the evening ot the 17th of August Captain John son again set sail, and followed during that night and tlie two successive d»ya (viz: the 18th and 19th of August) the entire east and southeast coast of,the land which was every- where, as well as the open sea, fur and wide, wholly destitute of ice. The ocean lying to wards tbe east-northeast wss also perfectly free of ice, so far as it was distinguishable from the summit of the hills. Only os the north coast was there any ice.

Among the most important, discoveries made by Captain Nils Johnson were tlie fan na and flora of these far northern lands. Bi nts, seaU and reindeer abounded, the latter of remarkable fatness. The immense iongi tudinal piles of driftwood, which ran along the eastern coasts some twenty feet above the highest tidal mark, are suggestive of the cur rent conditions of the Arctic Ocean, and also of the meteorologic and other atmospheric commotions in Ute “icy seas.” THE PAYER-WEYPRECUT EXPEDITION. Dr. Peterman has received information from tbe Payer-Weyprecht expedition, dating from the 16th of August, when it was near the Bear Islands, in 76 deg. 17 min north latitude, and 80 deg. 41 min. east Iongi : tude. The expedition found immense mass es of thick ice—since it is driven to the west half of the sea—but Payer wrote, “For steam easily penetrable.” ‘ Although,” Dr Petermsnn concludes, “the expedition first strived on the 25lh of Jniy at tbe ice barrier, in 7i| deg. north latitude, and 48 dig. east longitude, it was enabled by the 16th of An- gust to make its way to its p -sition in sigh; of Cape Nassau, at least *29 leagues in straight line. The Vote in Atlantn. It will be curious to notice the vote in Ful ton at tlie election on the 5th, and compere it with previous votes. If there has not been in reality any repeating by the Graut party, that party has made a surprising jump in numbers. The total vote polled at Governor Smith's election in Atlanta and West End wss 4.1S3, of which Smith received 3,649, and Walker 1,472. The total vote polled at this elt etion at the two places is 4,858. of which the Demo crats polled 2,051, and the Radicals 3,807. The whole vote has Ifcea increased 719. The Democratic vote has fallen off 598. The Rad ical vote has increased 1,335. Smith’s ma jority was 1,159 at the two places. Grant’s majority is 756. In the Denftcratic vote we include the Greeley and O’Coeor votes. In the connty the whole vote at this elec tion is 5,039. At thq Smith election it wss 4,366, an increase on the whole vote of CGI. The Democratic vote now in the county is 2,.23 or a falling off of 733. That is, 733 Democrats staid at home end refused to go out and help elect a Democratic Congress man. The Radical vote in the county at Smith's election was 1,510. This election it was 2,887 or an increase of 1,327, almost doubling itself. There is the best ground for believing that bold and large frauds were perpetrated to make this increase. Glenn was beaten hy Freeman 518 votes in the county. This' is the fruit of the fraud. Glenn got 451 mere votes than Greeley, Of these 318 constituted the “Staiehl" vote all told in the county or abont one-seventh of the Democratic votes polled, or one eighth of tho Democratic vote for Smith. * Only 70 more votes were polled for Con gressmen than for President These were the Democrats who voted for Glenn and not for Greeley. It will also be seen that the vote for Grant 2,837, was almost np to the vote for Smith, 2,858, in the county. While the vote for Grant in Atlanta and West End, 2,807, is larger than Smith's vote, 2,649, hy 153 votes This shows the Radical fraud to be un doubted. By voting the entire Democratic vote polled at Smith’s election, wo would only have beaten Grant and Freeman 19 votes. But 600 Democrats staid at home and did not vote, tliU9 giving the election to the Radicals. Freeman rau behind Grant 63 votes. The same Democratic vote that was given to Smith would have enabled Glenn to beat Freeman, fraud and ail, 82 majority in the connty. The resnlt is simply a shame to the Atlanta Democracy. The party has to thank itself for its defeat in the county and city. But it must be admitted that many went to vote and become so disgusted at the Radi cal pressure to absorb the polls that they left. But men are not excusable in thus giving up an election.

Petigru. of South Carolina, contributes to Aopieton’s Journal, an interest ing account of o' l St Michael's Cburcb, and the chime of bells that once sounded in its steeple a carillon as sweet as floats from the spire of Antwero Cathedral These bells were connected with the Revolu tion, but, having escaped the perils of tbe siege of Charleston by the British in 1780, they were destroyed nearly a century latCr by a mischance of the war of secession. But we must let Mrs. Carson tell the story of llieir fate after Sumter; “Time went on, and Charleston behind her de fense of sand resisted all the efforts to car ry her. During the five hundred (five hun dred r.nd forty-six) days of bombardment, all tit? lower part of the town h«d to be aban doned. Houses and churches were shattered, the cannon balls tore up the very graveyards, and tbe bones of tbe dead were scattered. Yet the spire of Su Michael’s was untouched. Perhaps tho cannoneer tried to spare it—per haps good angels, guarded it. But what ueilher tho malice of the enemy nor the -pile of fori uue did, the people themselves effected. For the bells were taken down and sent to Columbia, to be cast into cannon. Gen. Beauregard, perhaps shocked at the de secration, pronounced them unfit forthe pur pose; and the fate which heaped up at Col umbia for safe-keeping everything of value in the Bute, there detained the bells also. Then Sherman’s army passed through, leav ing its track of lightning. A party of half drunken soldiers, ont for a lark and for plun der, were accosted l»y a negro who offered to show them tlie hells which had rung in seces sion. ’Never,* s-dd the men, ’shall they play that tone again,’ and they smashed them into a hundred pieces. “Sad was the return to the desolated homes and the meeting in the dumb church, to which no miracle might now restore the voice ot the chimes they loved. “But they were men of pluck still, and, as soon as they bad shaken themselves up and provided for the first pressing needs, they re sol veil to tax themselves to the utmost to get a new chime. “Scarcely had tlie rector bread, and the vestry and congregation were all very poor, but they wrote to O. IL Priolcsu, of London, to inquire the cost of a new set. This gen tlcnmn had lived so long in England as tc have become almost an Engifchman, with a fair English wife and bluff handsome Eng lish children, bnt his heart siiired at the re collection of the dear old voices that had called him to childhood, and he undertook the task with a hiving zeal that brought abont the mo6t surprising results. There was no record at Charleston of where the bells came from. But Mr. Prioleau searched the directory for the oldest founders of the city, and went from one to the other, until at Mearcs& Co., Wbi’.e Chapel, London, a firm which has been in existence three hundred yean, be found, by patient examination, the record of t^.lI. a*.tit f.i- Cl M lnlini.l’a Olinml, f L..1 Telegraphic Profits. The Western Union Telegraph Company has $27,311;600of stock. On the 30th of June 1872 it bad 62.C32 miles of line with 137,199 miles of wire and 631 offices. It employed 8,347 operators who last year sent 12,444,495 dispatches, or an increase of 1,778,423 over the year before. The gross receipts were $3,4)7,095 and expenses $5,666,863, leaving net profit $2,770,232. Tbe business increased over the previous year, $819,646 in gross re- ceipts, $561,075 in expenses and $257,570 in net profit*. For six yeais its net profits have been $17,- 116,694, or nearly three millions a year. Of this amount $4,850,879 was given in divi- ends, and $! 0,361,412 spent on new lines.

Meanwhile, Meares found still in their service an old man of seventy-six, who had been apprenticed under the very fore man who, mere than a hundred years before, had cast those bells; and he, stimulated by Prioleau’s generosity, never res’ed till he brought to light the very original molds for for the castings.

The Capital is well nigh deserted. The Clciks have gone home to vote by the hun dred, and business in the Depot t men ts is sus pended, not to be fully resumed for at least a week to come. Most of the Cabinet officer* and Clerks of Bureaus in the Executive De triments have also gone to their respective ates to vote for President to-morrow. Secretaries Belknap and Delano left Friday; Secretary Fish and Judge Richardson, As sistant Secretary of the Treasury, took their lep:u-iure on Saturday; while Postmaster Gen'-r&lCrcsswcU will remitiu in Maryland, and Secretary Robeson in New Jersey until after the election. Owing to the great dis- t nee Attorney General Williams will not be able to go to his home in Oregon to vote. The friends of the President assert that he is not at all nervous, and very confident as to his re-election. He has a sublime faith in hit “lurk.” Senator Wilson bad an interview with the President on Friday la t, and as sured him that on accountof the 15.090mile* of travel and the 123 speeches he, Wilson, had fade, the Republicans would carry every Northern and Western Slate on Tuesday. tin vauant, it will be remembered that Wil son is an ass. FRAUDULENT TOTES. RADICAL BETS. I hear of beta hy firm friends of the Ad ministration on 80JKG majority for Grant in New York, 80,000 in Pennrlyvania, 20,000 in Virginia, 7,000 in Connecticut, aud 10,000 in Indiana, The amounts stoked on these opinions are, however, very small, ranging In value from twenty five cent cigars to “drinks for the crowd.” Several Democrats accepted bets of cigars, but were not so lnw in self- respect as to negotiate bets of drinks. Tho bet were altogether between Radicals hold ing different opinions. TUE ATTITUDE OF THE SOUTH. The Sunday Herald of thi* dty In yester day’s issue attributes the loss of Pennsyl vania, Indiana and Ohio to the stoy-at-bome and sold out Democratic vote. The Herald ia the leading Democratic organ of Wash ington. Of the South it says, in the course of the article above referred to: ‘The attitude of the South in this contest i been most admirable. It accepted a plat form at variance with its long cherished opinions, and a candidate whom it had re tarded as a life-long enemy. It turned its back upon the past, conquered ita prejudices, and extended the hand of amity and cordial good-will to the Conservative and Liberal Re- lublicans of the North and Weak Nobly has t met all its engagements, redeemed all iu pledges, and that it will do its dnty on Tuesday we have no doubt The Liberal Republicans are also due full meed of praise. In the ehetiona already held in New Hampshire, Maine, Pennsylvania, Indiana and Ohio they polled their full strength and did their work nobly. Wc say this the more freely aa certain Democratic journals have done less to bring out the votes of their own party titan prove our Liberal allies in default The returns of the late elections show there was no delin quency on that side. Had the Democracy done aa well, Grant would not cany more than two States on the 5th instont” FISK WILL STICK. It is now very well understood thatUmre cent reports of Secretary Fish's intention of resigning are as completely bogus as were tho trevious rumors on this subject The best- nformed opinion is that if Grant is re-elected Mr. Fish has a better prospect of remaining in the Cabinet during tbe entire term than any of the present Executive atlvi«cts. Grant don't want Fish to resten; Fish him self don’t want to resign; and the public at large don’t care “a Continental ml” whether he resigns or not It has been stated that Minuter W tali borne would succeed Ur. Fish, hots special dispatch to a New York paper ft, health of Minister Waaltliarne and bis wife is such as demands that he should live abroad, and for this reason he docs not desire to return to the United Htates. His l< sve of absence extends to the middle of next Jan uary. but he exoecto to rem-oia here until af ter President Grant's inauguration. It is said that the President would gladly hatro Mr. Washburne in the State Department if agreeable to his wishes. Ur. Fish, on the other hand, it ia alleged, is fortifying himself to remain in the Cabinet c second term. He is preparing a history of Ute Alabama claims through all their ramifications in farther vin dication of his management of our ( relations duting President Grant’s term. PURE ROMANCE. One charming little practice of certain ournaliatic pen-drivers in Wellington is to nvent romances, when fee s are scarce, with which to startle the countty. Two of these are now in active circulation through the press. One marries a poordtng clerk to a widow possessed of millions; the other makes the daughter of aristocratic parents fall in love with a Comanche Indian. Thera was a clerk in a drag stoic who married a charming widow; but the wealth ia imag ined; while the only foundation forthe In dian romance is in the admiration expressed by a chief for the pile of hair on the head of one of oar belies. The infatuated Aborigine did follow tbe young lady, and was found at night loitering about her father’s premises; bat, when ar rated, be said he wan'd ''big scalp, much, ugh!" General Walker immediately purchased the savage a full suit of hair, and he is satisfied. THE HORSE DISEASE prevails here very generally, though in a mild I orm. But two deaths have been reportol, and these were old horses. The street can stopped running yesterday, and in conse quence the main streets are unusually crowd ed to-day with pedestrians. All of the Pres ident's horses are sick, as are those belonging to the Treasury Department which had eight negroes employed todav drawing a light wagon for carrying the mails, civil monra. A restaurant keeper of this dty has been fined $100, and bad his license token away, for refusing to sdl to negroes. When the law first went into operation he did sell to ne groes, and consequently lost his white customers. Finally his bnsinest was going from him, he adopted a coarse to protect his interest, with the shore result In tbe trial it was proven that tbe party who was the prosecutor hod refused to comply with the printed rales of the es tablishment, which required payment in ad vance for the articles ordered—a role which the proprietor had a perfect right to make.
