From tbe Atlanta Now Era.] Eliza Weaver vs. Brinkley Chaney, Equity. MoUay, J.—Where A. had advanood monoy to B. to enable B. to comply wilh.her bid at sher iff** aale; and A., to Recaro himself, took aheriff's deed to the land to himself, agreeing that on payment of the money lent to-wit, §10, with liberal interest, ho would mako a title to B., and B. therefore tendered the money bor rowed with $20 interest, and A. then claimed that the land waa his own; and on bill filed by A. for a specific performance of tho agreement the jury decreed that A. should make tho doed to B. onB.’a payment to him of $116: Held, that the verdict was illegal since $10 with legal interest was all A. was entitled to. Fleming & Rutherford for plantin'. Herbert Fielder for defendant. Jones & Jeter vs. S. & C. Blocker. Hiring the servant of another. Wabjolb J.—It is said by Blackstone that tbe retaining of another person’s servant daring the time he has agreed to servo his present master, aa it is an ungcntlemanly, so it is also an illegal act; for every master has by his contract pur chased for a valuable consideration tho service of bia employe for a limited time. The in veigling or hiring his servant, which induces a breach of this contract, is therefore an injury to tbe master, and for that injury tho law has given him a remedy by a special action on the case. 3 Blaoktsone, 142. Tho same principle is applicable whore one man employs a laborer to work on his farm, and any man knowing of such contract of employment, who entices, hires or persuades tho laborer to leave the service of his first employer daring the time for which he was so employed, is liable to damages: Held, That it was error in the court below in Bnstnining the demurrers to tho plaintiff’s de claration, and dismissing tho samo. R. H. Powell & H. Fielder, for plaintiff's. Hood A Kiddoo for defendants. H. M. Jenkins, vs. J. C. Grimes, et al. In' junction. Wakneb, J.—Pending an action fora divorce by Mrs. Grimes against her husband, she filed a bill against him praying that certain property therein mentioned should be placed in tho hands of a receiver, to be appointed by tbe Court, which was done. Jenkins, a note cred itor of the hnsband, filed bis bill against Mrs. Grimes, praying an injunction against the re ceiver, to restrain him from disposing of the property, and that his note might be paid out of it. The Court refused tho injunction. A motion was then made to mako Jenkins, the note creditor, a party to tbe kill filed by Mrs. Grimes, which motion was overruled by the Court, and Jenkins c-xoepted : Jfrlil, That there was no orror in the Court in refusing tbe injunction prayed for, nor in refusing that Jenkins be made a party to the hill field by Mrs. Grimes. Worrell «t Wimberly for plaintiff. Beale & Gillis for defendants. W. O. Sawyer vs. A. J. Pace. Complaint on Upon Account. Wabksb, J.—This was an action upon an open account. Tho parties entered into a writen contract to cultivate n plantation in Early county, for the year 1868, on tho terms therein expressed. The plaintiff claims that he did not get biH share of tbe crops, after dednoliog ex penses, etc. After hearing the evidence on both sides, the jury found a verdict for plaintiff for $65. Defendant made a motion for a new trial on the ground that tho verdict waa contrary to the law and evidence, and weight of the evidence. The court overruled the rnotioD for a new trial, and tbe defendant excepted: Held, That tho jury were tbe proper judges of the evidenoe, and the credit of the witneases examined on tbe trial, and this court will not interfere to control the discretion of the conrt lielow in refnsiug tho motion, on tbe state-men! of faota contained in tbe record. John T. Clarke fur plain iff Hood St Kiddoo for defendant. W. A. Rawson vs. W. B Thornton. In equity. Uomestend. Waunxb, J.—This was a bill filed by plaiutiff against defendant, to revive a dormant judg ment, and havo n tract of land covered by a homestead made subject thereto, for tbo pay ment of tbe pnrehaRO monoy thereto. On the trial motion was made to dismiss tbe bill on the ground that there was no equity in it which would give to a Conrt of Equity jurisdiction thereof, but on the oontrary tho remedy at law was ample and oomplote, and there was no er ror in dismissing tho bill at the trial term for want of jurisdiction. Boole & Tucker for plaiutiff. Wimberly, Gillis and Fielder, for defendant John. M. K. Gunn vs. N. H. Miller. Home stead. Wabneb, J.—Tho main question presented by tbe record is, whether Miller was entitled to a homestead against tho plaintiff's judgment, which was obtained against Eliza Hall, who was the ownor of tho land at the time of tbe rendi tion thereof. Tho judgment against Eliza Hall iH doted May 1, 1866, t.o the 3d of Juno, 1SC8. Miller purchased the land from E. K. Hall and Eliza R. Young, tho heirs at law of Eliza Hall, the defendant in judgment who died after tho rendition hereof. On the 10th of April, 1869, Miller applied for and obtained from tbe Ordi nary of Randolph county, a homestead on the land in question, and tbo court below decided that Miller was entitled to the homestead, as against tho plaintiff’s judgment, to which decis ion tho plaintiff excepted. Held, that the conrt below erred in holding and deciding that Miller was entitled to a home- stoad in tho land as against the plaintiff’s judg ment, and tbe statement of facta contained m the roeord. Clarke Hood for defendant, and Kiddoo for plaintiff. Ordinary for use of E. H. Worrell vs. H. O. Adams. Relief act of 1870. Affidavit that taxeB were paid. Wabxeb, J.—This was an action brought by S laintiff upon administrator’s bond, dated 8th annory, 1S65, to recover the amount of a debt reduced to jadgment against the intestate Sam uel Adams, alleging that the administrators of Adams had wasted the estate. The original debt on which (ho judgment was contracted was da ted in 1858, and was renewed several times. The amount due on it at the time it was reduced to judgment in 18C7 was aboat $2GOO. The plaintiff filed his affidavit under tho provision of tho sot of 1870, in which ho stated that he had paid all legal taxes chargeable by law on tbe debt np to the year 1865, which year no tax was assessed thereon. That,in 1SG6 and 1867 he gave in said debt at what he believed to be its market value, to-wit: $1000, and paid tho taxes there on* That since 1867 he did not give in and pay tax on tho debt beeanso it was no longer a sol vent debt and ceased to have any market value whatever. On motion of defendant’s counsel the court dismissed the plaintiff’s action on the ground that the affidavit of the plaintiff was not a com pliance with tho act of 1877. Whereupon the plaintiff excepted. If I belioved the act of 13th October, 1870, to be a valid constitutional get, I should hold that losses on all debts contracted prior to Jane 1, 1SU5, or on contracts in renewal thereof should be regularly given in and paid on all such debts, whether solvent or not, as a condi tion precedent to entitle the plaintiff to recover on the samo in the Courts. That such was the clear and manifest intention of the Legislature, there can be no doubt. It is entitled “An act to extend tho lien of set-off and recoupment, as against debt, contracted before tho 1st day of June, 1865, and to deny to such debts the aid °f .tbe C-onrts until the taxes thereon havo been paid.' The third section of the act declares that ‘In suits upon such contracts, in every case, tho burden of proof showing that tho taxes nave been duly paid, shall ho upon the party plaintiff, without plea by the defendant." The fourth section declares that "In every trial, npoD a suit founded upon any such debt or con tract as described in this act; Provided[ That said debt has been regularly given in for’ taxes and the taxes paid, shall be a condition prece dent to recovery on the same, and in every such ease, if the tribunal trying is not clearly satis fied that said taxes have been duiy given in and paid, it shall so find; and said suit shall he dis missed." In view of tho condition of tho pcoplo of the State, and the status of this particular class of debts at the time of the passage of this act, it cannot be reasonably supposed that any mem- ber of the Legislature was so stupid as to have intended that it ahonld be an act to increase the revenue of the State. The object and intention of tho act, as is patent npon its face, was to finder, obstruct and prevent tho collection of all debts contracted prior to tho 1st of Juno. 1865, and those in renewal thereof, and for the accomplishment of that pnrposo tho aid of tbo courts of the Stalo is denied to the holders and owners of snch debts, unless theyshall make an affidavit that said debts have been regnlarly given in for taxes, and tho taxes paid. That the 4th section of the act declares Bball be a condi tion precedent to a recovery on the same. The act makeB no exceptions as to the solvency of the debts, bnt embraces all suita founded upon any debt made or contracted before the 1st of Juno, 1865, or in renewal thereof. The plaintiff in this case, like other honest tax payers in this State did not regnlarly each year give in and pay taxes on this debt, because ho did not honestly believe it was a solvent debt when he gave in his taxable property. Yet the act requires him to mnko an affidavit that this debt bus been regnlarly given in for taxes and tho taxos paid on it, as a condition precedent to his right to maintain a suit on it in the courts of thia State. Because, as an honest, conscien- tions tax payor, he could not swear it was a sol vent debt when ho gave in his taxes for 1SC7, 1868 and 18C9, ho baa not regnlarly given it in for taxes, and regnlarly paid the taxes on it; and, inasmuch as be cannot make the affidavit that he has done so, tho act ontlaws him from tho courts of the State, as was most dearly the intention of the Legislature to do in regard to that class of debts specified in the act. If this, in my jndgment, was a valid consti tutional act, I would confirm the jndgment of the Conrt below, but as I believe it to be uncon stitutional and void, I concur in the judgment of this Court, reversing the jadgment of the Court below. Lociibaxe, 0. J., and McCay, J., concurred, on the ground that the act was constitutional, and tho plaintiff had complied with its require ments as to the payment of taxes and filing the affidavit prescribed.

Wueheas, At the July Term A. D. 1871, of the Buperior Court, held in and for the oounty of Washington, one James Oxford was tried for, and convicted of, the crime of murder, and sentenced by the Jndge presiding at said conrt to be executed by hanging by the neck until dead, on Friday, tho 1st day of September proximo, and was, by order of said court, committed to tbe jail of the county of Baldwin for safekeeping,to await the fulfillment of his said sentence; and, Whereas, It has been officially reported to this department, that on the night of the 22d of July, 1871, in the city of Milledgeville, county of Bald win, a band of lawless and disguised persons, of abont seventy-five in number, did, by force and in timidation, obtain from the sheriff of the said county of Baldwin, the keys of the jail ot said county, and did unlawfully open the same and re lease therefrom the said James Oxford,and set him at liberty; and, Whereas, Upon a previous occasion, to-wit: on the night of tho 14th of Oclober, 1SC9, while the said James Oxford was confined in the jail of the county of Hancock, under an indictment charging him with the murder of a respectable citizen of said county, a band of disguised and lawless per sons, of about sixty in number, did,by force and in timidation, obtain from the Sheriff of said county of Hancock the keys of the said jail, and having overpowered the guard stationed thereat for the safekeeping of tho prisoners confined therein, did unlawfully open said jail and release therefrom the said James Oxford, and set him at liberty; and, Whereas, Those repeated and flagrant violations of the law, by bands of disguised persons, clearly establish tho fact that there is a determination upon their part to prevent the said Oxford from being brought to punishment for the crime of which he stands convicted, thereby setting the laws of this State at open defiance and thwarting tho ends of jnstice; and, Whereas, It is the duty of the Executive, and the interest of every good citizen of this State, to see to it that the laws thereof are rigidly ex ecuted. Now, therefore, in order that tt# majesty of the law may ho full; vindicated, and to this end that the sentence imposed by the court upon the said Oxford aa aforesaid may bo fully executed, I do hereby issne this, my proclamation, offering a re ward of FIVE THOUSAND DOLLARS for the ap prehension and delivery of the said James Oxford to the Sheriff of Fulton county: And I do moreover chargo all officers, both civil and military, in thia State, to bo vigilant in endeav oring to apprehend the said James Oxford, in or der that he may be brought to punishment for the crime of which he stands convicted.
