• Noon’s advices, yesterday from France
State that tho Beds are thorougldy beaten in the
Assembly. A Herald correspondent pronounces
the indications strongly in favor of a revival of
tho Orleans dynasty, while the World quotes
from Favre as expressing the opinion that
Conservative Republican Government will
inaugurated. A good idea is that of tho i
moval of the seat of government from Paris.
Great apprehensions aro felt about tho result
of the Gorman triumphal march through Paris
on Sunday next.
Tho London Times reports that the German
peaco terms are comparatively moderate.
Admiral Lee arrived at Key West yesterday,
had hoard nothing about the Tennessee,
did not doubt ehe was all right.
Bowen, the Congressional bigamist, escaped
conviction yesterday in Washington by one dis
senting juror.
Tlie Tennessee.
A Washington correspondent of the Jonrnal
of Commerce states that Gen. Sherman says
tho Tennessee was bnilt cut sharp at tho bow,
and plated to bo nsed as a ram. She had heavy
engines and sat well down in the water. But
tho heavy engines were taken out and light
ones put in, and when that was done she stood
above tho mark of steadiness in tho water,
other words, she was top heavy, and the
gincs were too light for tho vessel. As sho
had a very light load on this trip, tho effect
in a heavy sea can easily be imagined.
Now, if wo add to that the statement of Han-
scom, Chief Naval Constructor at Brooklyn,
that besides taking out four boilers and putting
on lighter engines, Admiral Porter added a spar
deck, and raised her coal bunks and other heavy
armament, wo have, altogether, such a disturb
ance of tho centre of gravity that it would be
no wonder if the Tennessee capsized in the first
heavy sea. Moreover, to add to these facts, she
is reported to have been full ship-rigged—im
plying necessarily great height and weight of
mast and spar, which would vastly increase her
danger. If these be the facts, it will it
not bo surprising to learn that slie wa3 thrown
on hor beam ends and foundered tho first day
out, and if nothing be ever heard from her
something like that will bo tho popular solution
of her fate. But if she shonld get to Domingo,
the next question will be, can she 6ver get
back ? ^
Something About ‘•Onirta.”
A correspondent of the Savannah News who
has recently returned from England, furnishes
that papor with somo information concerning the
author, whose novels written over the above nom
de plume, have had such extensive sale, and
about whose merits there is so much diverse
opinion. Tho writer called on Miss De La Ra-
nie—her real name—at Langham’s Hotel, Lon
don, and found her “exquisitely attired in a
summer toilette of blue and white—very fair,
about forty years of age, slender, graceful, rath-
or below the medium height, a sweet, intellect
ual face and melodious voice, xnannerssingular-
ly fascinating and refined; in a few words, the
very bean-ideal of a gentle, refined, highly cul
tivated, fascinating and intellectual woman.”
She was enthusiastic in her praises of the Sonth
and its people, asserting that “the Southerners
are the true aristocrats of the earth.” She
spoke in terms of hearty admiration of General
Breckenridge, whom she had met, and demon
strated, in divers other ways, her “rebellions”
instincts. ^
Congress Chartering Kail Roads
through the States.
A correspondent leaves a memorandum on
our desk wanting our opinion about the right
of Congress to charter Bail ways through tho
States as asked for and proposed in the case of
the Cincinnati Southern Road. Wo expressed
onr views on that point briefly a few days ago.
Congress hng the same power to confer the right
of way throngh a State thatithasthroughFrance
or Great Britain, and that is—none at all. But,
nevertheless, Congress proposes to assume that
power in several cases—(the air-line road to
New York is another of them)—and wo have
• little doubt will do it in the Kentucky case.
Tho ilacon Connection and the Sonth
Carolina Railroad.
Under this head, the Charleston Courier, of
Tuesday, says:
The annual meeting of the stockholders of
the Sonth Carolina Bailroad Company will con
vene to-day at 11 o’clock. The meeting is one
of great importance. The people of the State,
and especially of the city of Charleston, cannot
be too deeply interested in the prosperity and
welfare of a road, which is the great connecting
line with the arteries which supply it with trade
and the elements of commerce. It is a public
enterprise created for the benefit of the State,
and in which, therefore, every individual has a
deep concern.
Abont three thousand shares in the road aro
owned by the citizens of Macon. Georgia, and
of whom Mr. W. L. Ellis, of the firm of Ellis &
Brother, is the representative, and attends the
meeting on their behalf. It is probably, next
to tho city of Charleston, the largest number of
shares owned by the inhabitants of any city.
The Macon and Augusta Hoad was finished oir
the first of January, and promises to he a vain-
able auxiliary to the South Carolina Boaa. it
opens up a large and important trade to this sec
tion, which it is important to secure. For this
there will doubtless bo competition. It is esti
mated that there will, with the proper means
taken, bo abont five hundred thousand bales of
cotton per annum pass over this road, which,
with the proper connections made, will enure
to tho benefit of the South Carolina Bailroad,
and, therefore, to the city.
Macon is surrounded by a growing country
which mnst yield a large and increasing revenue.
This route fonns the shortest and most desira
ble way, via Charleston to New York, and North
ern markets for products. The citizens of Ma
con, regard it of importance in order to build
up this trade, and foster this connection, and on
account of the large amount of stock held by
them in tho South Carolina Bailroad, that they
should bo entitled to a representation in the
Board. This claim is worthy of consideration,
and ns such we commend it to tho attention of
the stockholders.
How tUo Codfish Quarrel Re-opened
—Diplomacy outlie Alabama Ques
tion.
In an article of some length the Journal of
Commerco explains how certain politicians,
much against their will, have ro-opened diplo
macy upon the Alabama claims, in their effort
to feed the flames of the war-spirit by liberal
contributions of Canada codfish oiL The fate
of a few trespassers upon tho maritime juris
diction of Canada could never have awakened
much concern in the United States; and the
English Government, in fact, attached no im
portance, whatever, to tho vindication of tho
rights claimed by Canada..
Butler, however, representing a fishing con
stituency, naturally thundered in his own in
terests. Tho codfish question to him was a
special and momentous buncombe. Accord
ingly, he flamed in speech and press. He was
able, not only to singe the British Lion, but
also to manipulate Grant into a flaming mani
festo in his last annual message—wherein the
codfish question takes the lead as a grand in
ternational dispate of tho first importance,
while tho Alabama question is disposed of in a
few lines.
Meanwhile, there was a deadlock in tho Ala
bama negotiations. A liberal treaty, proposed
and sanctioned by Great Britain, had been igno-
minionsly rejected by the Senate, and it de
volved upon tho United States to re-open tho
negotiations, if she intended to settle tho ques
tion peaceably. But just here the domestic
trouble began. The Radical party was all at
sea upon what they would demand—what it was
safe to demand, if they meant peace, and what
it was proper to demand if they intend to go
before the country on tho question of war. ,
Moreover,. it was in dispute whether they
wanted war or not, and whether a war would
work, as believed, in the radical party interests.
Some wanted it and some did not. Some be
lieved, with Butler, that the party could not be
saved without war—some said war would not
save it, and a few did not care to save it at that
exorbitant and felonious price.
In this condition of things, tho Cabinet had
stood on tho policy of non-action till-it could no
longer stand there with credit—somo movement
most bo made. Motley was therefore recalled
and Schenck appointed to go the Court of St.
James, bearing tho new programme, whatever
that might be—but what it was to be, that was
the puzzle.
In this condition of affairs, which we have
sketched independently of the Jonmals’ article,
and for which we do not desire it shall be held re
sponsible, let ns see from the Journal of Com
merce, how Butler’s libation of codfish oil to
the flames of war has been cunningly nsed by
the British diplomatists in tho interests of
peace. It has been snatched from the Are and
thrown upon the waters ol strife. Says the
Journal:
Those of us who read the English journals
were well aware that England cared bnt lit
tle for the monopoly by the dominion of the
fisheries, and would cheerfully throw them open
to Gen. Butler’s constituents rather than have a
fuss abont it. But, seeing how mnch ado the
President choso to mako in the matter, tho
Gladstone Cabinet shrewdly decided to join
the President in magnifying it into a vast con
cern, and rendering its adjustment the business
of an extraordinary commission. Their idea
was, and is, to grant the most liberal conces
sions on the fishery question, in order to get
easier terms in tho Alabama negotiations. Such
at least aro tho probabilities of the case. If
so, the President overshot the mark in his mes
sage. After attaching so great importance to
the removal or modification of tho Canadian
fishing restrictions, ho cannot with consistency
belittle it; bnt must admit that the giving way
of England on this point (where sho was never
at all tenacious), entitles her to a considerably
reduced bill of damages for losses by tho Al
abama.
In another respect the raising of the question
by tho President, gave England a great diplo
matic advantage. It enabled her to feel tho
way to settling the Alabama claims without a
Ions of her self-respect, which would in Engiicfc
opinion hnv« boon fuireiiea iiad she first pro
posed a commission at Washington to sit on the
Alabama controversy alone. It was morally
certain that, when Sir Edward Thornton opened
the subject of a fishery commission, this gov
ernment would ring in the Alabama claims os a
kindred subject to be settled by the same au
thorities. And thus it is, we say, that the pro
posal to reopen the Alabama dispute comes from
us at last and not from England; and she has
imported a new item in to tho general question,
namely the fishery difficulty, by gracefully yield
ing upon which she can hardly fail to procure a
reduction of the grand total.
We learn from a well informed American gen
tleman abroad, who has sounded members of
the Gladstone Cabinet, that other odds and ends
of more or Ies3 value will bo thrown in by Eng
land to lighten her payments in cash. Tho San
Juan question is one that will doubtless be re
vived in this connection; and also tho naviga
tion of the St. Lawrenco; and the rectification
of certain Northwestern boundaries; on all of
which points English diplomacy will be complai
sant to a degree. If, as a net result of all the
transactions, thi9 country makes anything like
as good terms (cash or tangibly valuable), as
she would have made on the basis of the John-
son-Clarendon treaty, we shall be pleasantly dis
appointed.
Having thus shown that England enters upon
tho commission with advantages of various
kinds which she did not have before, we yet do
not grudge them to her. The Alabama claims
ought to be settled as soon as possible, and so
ought every question at issue between the two
nations. It has been for the interest of a few
politicians to keep open the disputes between
the United States and England, and wo imagine
that some of them are now deploring the pros
pect of a perfect reconciliation. Bnt commerce,
peaceful industries, and all considerations of
well being, demand the obliteration of the last
rotioi.D.1 cause of quarrel: nnd wo earnestly
hope that tho commission will not adjourn until
that great work has boon accomplished.
Is Trouble.—The letter-writers say the claim
ants under the Alabama spoliations are in a
peck of trouble lest their claims shonld be set
tled with the government of the United States,
tvhich bas proved itself a very unfaithful col
lecting agent. In tho treaty made during Jack-
aon’s administration with France the govern
ment collected from Franco twenty millions in
demnify, for spoliations and losses suffered by
Amorican ships daring tho wars of the first Na
poleon; and of those twenty millions the gov
ernment has yet to pay ont tho first cent to tho
sufferers. They apprehend the claimants un
der the Alabama spoliations will meet with the
somo fate.
The First Game Bagged.—The Legislature
of Mississippi set a trap to catch tho Ku-klux,
and the firat game bagged was a “trooly loll”
Radical negro schoolmaster of Meridian, named
Price. Disguised, with eight or ten others, he
dragged an old negro from his house and nearly
beat him to dnath.
A corpulent wife in Cincinnati appears over
anxious to hasten tho permanent absence of her
invalid bnt absurdly tenacious of lifo husband.
She bad prepared for him, and occasionally airs
in his presence, the neat suit in which his corpao
will be dressed “if I shonld be so fortunate as
of lose you, my dear.”
Carious Telegraphic Feat.
Tho Richmond Dispatch records tho most
singular achievements by the telegraph of which
we have ever heard:
A gentleman suddenly became ill of pneu
monia in Washington City. His physician, a
gentleman of great attainments and fame, Re
sided in New York, and he was anxious that
this physician should bo consulted abont his
. A telegraph wire was by bis direction
taken into his room, and the New York doctor
being summoned to the telegraph office there,
the Washington physician attending the patient
informed him of the state of the case, and even
enabled him to fed his patient's pulse by caus
ing the wire to vibrate as the pulse did. Tbe
case thns being thoroughly diagnosed in New
York, the necessary prescriptions were sent
thence to Washington. The attack, though vi
olent, soon yielded to the treatment, and tho
datient is now a veiy cheerful convalescent.
The Southern Lite Insurance Company.—
Mr. Jos. B. Randall, whose retiremont from the
editorial control of tho Augusta Constitutional
ist has already been announced, is now in
Charleston as the special agent of the Southern
Life Insurance Company. This company is
already well known, nnd its officers and agents
speak in the highest terms of tho progress it has
maoe.' This at least is certain—tho officers and
agents of the company are gentlemen of high
character and position, and weigh well every
statement they mako. Mr. Randall will doubt
less bo as successful in his new profession as he
was in the editorial chair, and will find new op
portunities of serving tno people who remember
him with affectionate .respect. From the
Cameo Bracelet” and “My Maryland” to a
life - insurance agency is avast change. The war
poet of the Sonth now makes policy the study of
his life. We invite attention to tho communi
cation of tho general agents of the company, to
bo found on the fourth page of this issue.-

THE GEORGIA PRESS.
The factories at Columbus were compelled to
suspend work Tuesday on account of high water.
The Columbus Sun soys the effect of tho late
rains in that section is giving a heavy backset
to work on plantations. Few had jnoro than
organized their force when tho rain set in, since
which the rains have boon so incessant that
little in the way of preparations for tho crop
could be done.
Tho steamship Saragossa, which arrived at
Savannah Tuesday afternoon, encountered a
tremendous hurricane last Sunday off Capo

A Savannah merchant was in Columbus Sat
urday offering to bet $5,000 that the receipts at
the United States ports for this cotton week,
which ends to night, would amount to 185,-
000 bales. A* gentleman of the city has been
hunting for him to take the bet, and was disap
pointed when he found he was gone.
The Sparta Times and Planter says guano
meets, with a very slow sale in Hancock. There
are abont eleven agents in Sparta, and it is the
opinion of “a farmer” that one ton to tho agent
will be tho maximum of the amount sold for the
present season.
The Savannah News says:
Colored • Georgians. — The question has
arisen in the minds of tho colored people of
Savannah as to whether they aro competent to fill
publio offices or not. Even colored carpet-bag
gers are preferred over native negroes. For
instance, Toomer and Arison, in tbe Post Office,
and Porter in tho Custom House, are natives of
Sonth Carlina; and White, ex-Clerk of the Sup
erior Court, but now Assistant Appraiser under
Bobb, is a native of Ohio. It is strange that
the great intellectual qualifications of the darkey
Rads of Savannah are thus ignored. “Why is
this thus ?” Whore are the African Ku-Klux ?
The following record of land sales at Sparta,

Tlie Iniprove«I I’snlms.
From a review in the Sanday World of Dr.
Conant’s new version of the Book of Psalms,
we take tho following:
Tho Psalms were originally sung in publio
worship by alternato choirs, who responded to
qach other from different parts of the temple.
Sometimes they echoed back the some senti
ments in other words; sometimes tho response
was a contrast in the sentiment with a strict ro>
semblance in tho structure of the language
sometimes it consisted in mere similarity of
poetical form which carried on, instead of mere
ly echoing, the sense. We have no space to
trace the structure of the Hebrew verso through
all these peculiarities, and will merely give one
or two illustrations of its simplest form. It
was regnlar strophe and and anti-strophe be
tween alternate choirs. We will take an exam
ple where the same sentiment is repeated, using
the common version of a familiar psalm:
Fisrt Choir: The heavens declare tho glory of
God;
Beconu Chois (responding): And the firmament
ehowetb his handiwork.
Wiacr Ohoxev : Day unto day nttoreth speech;
Second Chois : And night onto night showeth
knowledge.
Fisst Chois; There is no speech nor language
where their voice is not heard;
Second Chois : Their lino is gone out through
all the earth, and their words to tho end of the
world.
What would seem to a cool literary critic
reading the common version without any other
knowledge as mere tautology and tasteless rep
etition, becomes, when properly understood, a
curious illustration of the forms of Hebrew
worship and of the structure of Hebrew poetry;
all of which is completely obscured by the or
dinary translation. We will farther illustrate
tho absurdity of tho common version of tho po
etical parts of tho Bible, by taking a few lines
from Shakespeare and printing them in arbitra
ry verso like those which chop np and confuse
the English scriptures:
1. Livo, Brutus,.live! live! Bring liim with tri
umph home onto his house.
2. Give him a statue with his ancestors; lot him
be Caesar.
3. Cicsar’s better parts shall now be crowned in
Brutus; we’ll bring him to his house with shouts
and clamors.
Who could recognize, when transformed into
this biblical disguise, tbe spirited dialogue which
we will now restore:
Citizens. Livo, Bratus, live! live!
1. Citizen. Bring him with triumph homo unto his
house.
2 Citizen. Give him a statue with his ancestors.
3 Citizen. Let him be Ctcssr.
4 Citizen. Cmsar’s better parts
Shall now be crowned in BrntuB.
1 Citizen. We’ll bring him to his house with shouts
and clamors.
BY TELEGEAPH.
.Wo now proceed to give a pretty close paral
lel taken from the Psalms. The following are
tho last verses of Psalm cxxxv., taken from tho
common translation:
19. Bless the Lord, O house of Israel; bless the
Lord; O house of Aaron;
20. Bless tho Lord, O house of Levi; ye that fear
the Lord, bless tbe Lord.
21. Blessed be the Lord out of Zion, which dwell-
eth at Jerusalem. Praise ye the Lord.
Prejudice and devotional associations apart,
this is tasteless and wearisomereiteration. Now
witness the transforming effect of putting it in
its proper.form! -It is the conolosion or dox-
ology of a very striking hymn used in the sor-
Trice of the temple at Jerusalem, while that
worship was maintained in its pristine and im
posing magnificence. Imagine the high Priest,
the Priests, the Levites present in their robes,
together with tho congregation, all arranged in
due order,' and alternately chanting or singing
with instrumental accompaniments. We use
Dr. Conant’s translation, taking the dramatic
costume, so to speak, from an appendix to
Lowth: . .
High Priest and Priests to the Congregation :
House of Israel, bless ye Jehovah;
Congregation to the High Priest and Priests :
House of Aaron, bless ye Jehovah;
High Priest and Priests to the Levites: House
of Levi, bless ye Jehovah;
Levites to the High Priests and Priests : Ye
that fear Jehovah, bless Jehovah.
Priests, Levites, and Congregation all to
gether, in full chores : Blessed he Jehovah out
of Zion, who inhabits Jerusalem.
Full chorus continued, each division in turn
addressing the'other two : Praise ye Jah!
How insipid and spiritless is tho common
version in comparison with this. Dr. Conant,
as a mere translator, had to omit the vivifying
scenery and surroundings; bnt pray observe
now much better his veraion-corresponds with
them!
Beecher on Religions Reserve.
The Sun of Saturday says that in Mr. Boooh-
er’s lecture in Plymouth Church, the evening
previous, upon “Religions Reserve,” he said
that he was of opinion that a certain amount of
air and atmosphere was good for the soul, yet
he did not hold with those religionists who
would forcibly intrude upon a person’s con
science. If a man came up to him and, slap
ping him on the shoulder, demanded, “Brother
Beecher, how is your soul?” he would answer,
“None of yonr business! ” [Laughter.]
Mild persuasion was the only means of reach
ing a man’s inner self. With a sudden burst of
eloquence, Mr. Beecher exclaimed, “Round
came tho north wind, and swept down upon the
rosebud, saying, ‘Give me a kiss.’ But the rose
bud answered *No 1’ Round came the east wind
and swept down upon the rosebud, saying, ‘Give
me a kiss.’ But .the rosebud answered ‘No!’
Then came the south wind, blowing mildly and
lovingly, and the rosebud kissed it.”
Washington, February 1G.—It is stated that

A Herald special from Bordeaux, dated the
15tb, says .the Deputies manifestly intend to
overthrow the violent Republicans and remove
tho capital from Paris in order to shield tho
Government from the mob. A personal con
versation with the Deputies induces tho belief

be first established. Thiers,- Grevey, Trochu,
Delscluz and Dorron are favorably mentioned
and in connection with prominent citizens in
the provinces will certainly bo placed in power
Tho Radicals are making a desperate struggle,
but the cries for the continnenoe of tho war and
no surrender, havo evidently lost force. The
Conservatives aro confident that there is a strong
under current in favor of tho Orleamsts. The
election of the Orleans Princes to tho Assembly
is likely to bo declared valid.
A World’s special from Paris, dated tho 15tb,
states that Favre says the elections have evinced
an unexpected reaction against tho Republicans.
The country is alarmed at tho action of tho
Radicals, who played into the hands of tho
Monarchists. It is .not probable that the Or-
leanists will bo successful. They aro too wise and
prudent to involve tho country in war. A Re
public will unavoidably be adopted.

eleven fellows, bnt ho did not mean to insinu
ate that thero was a bribed jnror on this panel.
He did not see how a juror could hesitate for a

Thomas B. Rains vs. Charles Dunning and
Jas. Suggs. Injunction-from Randolph.
McOay, J.—Where A., holding an execution
against B., caused his land to be levied upon,
and before tho sale, it was agreed between them
that B. shonld sell to A. tho lands in satisfac
tion of tho judgment-, which was shortly after
wards done, B. making a deed, and A. satisfy
ing tho judgment, and it subsequently appeared
that, after the contract was made, but before it
was consummated by writing and signature, O.
had purchased from B. tho timber upon a largo
portion of the land, with fall notice of the
agreement betweon A. and 15!, and had . taken
a deed from B, past dated, so as to go behind
A.’s judgement against B., with intent to de
fraud A., and permitted A., without notice, to
go on and perfect his agreement with B., in ig
norance of the sale of tho timber.
Held, That this was a fraud upon A., and a
bill to cancel the deed conveying tho timber to
O.; and to enjoin bim from catting the timber
is not demurrable for want of equity.

liable for necessaries for its protection and
preservation and, to the extent of the income,
for necessaries for tho use of the beneficiaries
who are in want, unless tho trust deed other
wise provide, but it is not error in the Court
to refuse to give this principle of law in charge
to a jury, in a case which turns whoUy on an
oUeged express contract with the trustee, and
there is no evidenco from which the implied
liability of the trust estate can be lawfully as
sumed.
2d. Where there was a trust estate in Ran
dolph county, in the possession of a trustee, for
the wife of A, and A with his family lived on a

pays the money to a judgment in favor of B.
against H. of older date, than the judgment of
T. & Co. vs. H., S. having also been served
with suffimons of garnishment in B.’s suit vsl H.
Held, That this was a satisfaction of tho
judgment of T. & Co. vs. S., unless it be shown
that B.,’s judgment was not, in fact, tho oldest
lion, and that the whole question of the pay
ment, and which of the judgments was, in fact,
the oldest, may be inquired into on an affidavit
of illegality by S., settingup tho payment to
tho oldest judgment
Where the Judge of tho Superior Court re
quired tho affiant in an affidavit of illegality to
an execution, which affidavit was quite volumin
ous, to make a brief of the grounds taken in
tho shape of a motion, this was not such an er
ror as this court wiil correot it being mere mat
ter of praotioe, for tho convenient transaction
of the business of tho court, but in so doing,
if a material allegation in the affidavit is not

Motion for new trial from Muscogee. .
MoOay, J.—Where on a trial before a jury,
it was in issue whether a horse was sound at the
time of a sale, and there was evidence on both
sides upon the point, one of the witnesses say
ing ho was slightly lame and continued to grow
worse for a year, and after the trial a witness
was fonnd, who would swear that the horse was
not lamo at the sale', or for a long time thereaf
ter, when he got a hart whioh made him serious
ly lame.
Held,~That this wa3 only cumulative evidence,
and not a ground for new trial. In order to
justify a new trial on tho ground of newly dis-
covered evidence, it mnst appear that that the
newly discovered evidence is such as will prob
ably change the verdict.

sion of tho piano by him as such administrator,
before the commencement of the suit, although
thero was evidence that the piano had boen ap
praised as tho property of tho intestate: ~
Held, That tho plaintiff did not show such
evidence of title as would authorize him, as ad

piano from the defendant, who claimed to hold
it adversely to tho plaintiff’s intestate, and that
thero was no error in the Court below in grant

Warner, J.—When an action for divorce was
brought by tho husband against bis wife, alleg
ing as a ground for divoroe the willful and con-
tho deed was made to defraud them and other
creditors, and that the deed was withheld from
the record by the defendant that ho might get
credit on the faith of tho property conveyed to
his family, that it was voluntary, without valua
ble consideration,.and made with intent to de
fraud creditors, and at a time when said defend
ant awarding to the best of complainants
knowledge and belief was insolvent, that the
defendant at the time of the execution of the
deed was indebted to them more than $7,900,
and without advising them of its exeention, con
tinued to do business with them until the close'
of the cotton season of 1869-70, and had no
means to pay or secure them, that Flanders
the original trustee named in tho deed, has
been discharged, and the defendant has been
substituted in his place as trostee under the
deed, that the defendant has sold some of
tho property, and has advertised somo of tho
other property for sale, that the defendant
has converted and used tho money arising
from tho sale of said property as if tho same
belonged absolutely to him, and that the
family of defendant, by his own admissions,
havo enjoyed the money Which he owes com
plainants, and that the property mentioned in
said deed is justly subject to the payment of
complainants debt, and that they have reason to
apprehend, and do seriously apprehend that the
defendant, unless restrained by the injunction
of the Court, will sell all of said property, and
convert tho proceeds to his own uso. The bill
prays that the defendant may be enjoined from
disposing of the property conveyed by said deed,
either in his own name, or as trustee. Tho i
Court granted an order calling npon tho defend
ant to show cause why tho injunction should not
issue as prayed for. The defendant appeared
before the Judge and filed his answer to the
complaint’s bill, in which he admits the making
of tho deed, but denies that it was made with
intent to defraud the complaints, and sets forth
his indebtedness to them at the time of its exe
cution, the amount of collaterals held by them
at that time, and tho amount of property then
held by him as well as the amount of his gene
ral indebtedness at the time of the exeention of
the deed. Several affidavits were filed by the
respective parties in support of, and in opposi
tion to, the granting of tho injunction. Tho
Judge in the Conrt below, after hearing tho
motion for.tho injunction, and considering the
bill, and answer of tho defendant, and the affi
davits on each side, and the argument of coun
sel thereon, refused the application of the in
junction, whereupon the complainants.excepted.
The complainants also excepted to the refusal
of the Jndgo to allow the complainants to file
exceptions to the defendant’s answer, so as to
reqoire him so answer more folly the allegations
in the bill, and also excepted to the refusal of
the Conrt to compel the defendant to be orally
examined as a witness by the complainants, on
the hearing of tho motion for injunction:
Held, That as a general role,- a court of equity
will not interfere at the instance of a general
creditor, before judgment, to set aside a volun
tary conveyance alleged to have been made for
the purpose of defrauding creditors, and restrain
by injunction tho' sale of property held by tho
debtor under that voluntary conveyance as trus
tee or in his own right, on the ground of fraud
when tho fraud alleged is the execution of such
voluntary conveyance without notice to the cred
itors.
Held, also, That tho original jurisdiction to
.grant, or refuse to grant or to continue, or re
fuse to continue an injunction in an equity
cause, is vested by tbe Constitution and the
laws of this State, in the Superior Courts, or in
the several Jndg03 thereof as regulated by law,
who may, in the .-performance of that duty so
devolved cn them, exercise a. sound discretion
as to the granting or refusing an injunction, ac
cording to tho circumstances of each case pre
sented for their consideration.
Held, further, That this Court has no orig
inal jurisdiction to grant or refuse an injunc
tion, bufr-is alone a court for'the correction of
errors from the Superior Courts and City Courts,
and unless it is manifestly apparent from the
record that tho Judge of the Superior Court has
abused tho discretion vested in him by law,
either in granting or refusing to grant an in
junction, thero is no error which this Conrt can
correct and that, according to tho facts as pre
sented by tho record in the case, there was not
such an abnso of that discretion which the law
has vested in the Judge of tho Court below, in
refusing to grant the injunction prayed for as
will authorize this Court to control it:
Held also, That, inasmuch as tho answer of
tho defendant was not filed under the order or
process of the Court requiring the defendant to
answer the complainant’s bill, bnt was volunta
rily filed by him by way of showing cause against
granting the injunction, it was to be considered
sy the Judge for what it was worth, in the shape
in which ho voluntarily chose to. present it, and
that the complainants did not have the' legal
right to complain of his action in regard to that
matter; nor did the Judge err in refusing to al
low the complainants to examine tho defendant
orally as a witness, on a motion to grant an in
junction.
