I were visiting their cousin, another sprightly j
and beautiful young lady, who, like her guests j
was of that happy age, which turns every thing
into fun and merriment. If the truth were
told we fear that we should have to record the
fact that these three misses were just a little
bit fast. They were fond of practical jokes,
and were continually playing all sorts of mad
pranks with each other. AH three occupied a
room on the ground floor aud cuddled ut> to
gether in one bed.
Two of the young ladies attended a party on
the night in question, and did not get home
until half-past 12 o’clock at night. As it was
late they concluded not to disturb the house
hold; so they quietly stepped into their room
through the low open window.
In about half an hour after they nad left for
the party, a young Methodist minister called

decided at Chambers, on the 2Dtli ult, by the
Hon. W. 15. Fleming, Judge of the Superior
Court for the Eastern District of the State of
I Georgia :
Moon Blitch vs. M. U. Morgan—Certiorari
An execution irom a Justice's Court having
been levied on certain property, the defendant
in the execution filed an affidavit of illegality
anc * on the ground that the execution had been
paid.
The proof of payment, according to the evi
dence returned by the Magistrate, consists in
the fact that after the debt was carried to judg
ment auri cxeeutioii issued tliereon, the defen
dant. upon being threatened with a levy by
the Constable, went to the Magistrate, and up
on delivery to him of the amount in Confeder
ate notes the execution was receipted and de
livered to the defendant aud afterwards des
troyed. A.n alias execution was afterwards ta
ken out, and upon being levied, this affidavit
of legality has been filed.
The Court decided that the law constituted
the Constable the agent of the plaintiff, and
like ail agents, be had no power to bind his

could be no possible object in such an election.
\Ye do not particularly need members of Con
