THEUTES.
Probable Failure of the Commission.
I>enveil Cut... Deoeuibor27.—Specials
to Die Denver Tribune from Los Finos
Mie Ouray came up yestenlay after-
mioii and Dr* eonunission went promptly
iato session. He had promised his col
leagues at tte last meeting to send them
wool as soon as Soiuerwiek arrived, but
tte latter came up to Die agency and was
ten* several hours te-fore tte news of his
arrival reached tte commission. Upon
tte question teing asked Ouray, where
an- tie- prisoners, lie affected great sur
prise ami said be liad not understood that
tte commission wanted tlie Indians as
prisoners of war, and had not thought any
of tin-in were to be tried, but liad thought
all were to go to Washington to have a
talk with tlie Great Father on the subject
of their wrongs.
Now, inasmuch as tlie tte principal dif
ficulty the Commission lias been strug
gling with, was to induce tlie Indians to
give themselves up for trial, and as they
iunl finally consented, upon condition Oiat
tliey should not lie tried in Colorado, this
aflivtatinn of misunderstanding the whil
es of tte Commission was too much for
even tlie patience of General Hatch, and
tor Dr* second time since convening the
Commission, he lost temper, and for tlie
first time he lost confidence in tlie final
success of his efforts.
l-ast night 1r* expressed himself to tlia
.■fleet that lie did not believe Ouray liad
tte power to enforce tlie surrender of the
rto*. He lias, I think, finally given up
tte lM<pc that Dr- Indians will be surren
dered. auil is making jireparations to start
out; and Ouray was not reproached by
him for any display of bad faith or with
direct lying, but was told by Hatch that
he would start on tl»e *2Sth for Alamosa,
and would remain one day at the station
on tte Cimarron, twonty-fixe miles dis
tant. should he choose to deliver up the
Indians tte-re upon tte 29tb, they would
be received.
Ouray then tegan to entertain tlie com
mission with stories of men who liad been
frozen and lost in tte effort to get out at
this season. This was a childish plan to
deter Hatch firom leaving. lie evidently
fears tte consequences to his trite should
Hatch leave without the prisoners, as he
evidently cannot persuade or force the
I’tes to deliver themselves Up.
The last five days given, Ouray makes
tte sum total of twenty-one days time
I make no prediction
given to tte l*tes. . . .
as to the result this time—seeing Hatch is j mission next Monday or Tuesday,
determined that the Utcs may possibly de-
cids to give tteiuselves nig but, whether
they do" or not. Hatch will leave on Sun
day^ and if lie leaves without the prison

Suit Discontinued.
New York, December 27.—The suit

mont, to recover $1,108 which was al
leged te have teen erroneously paid him
as Major Geneial of the Uuited States
Army from May 14tli, 1801, to July lGtli,
in tlie same year, was discontinued to
day.
Judge Choate, at the instance of Dis
trict Attorney Woodford and tlie General’s
counsel, signed the order of discontinu
ance. Tlie complaint set forth that Fre
mont had not gone to his post and repor
ted for duty when he drew tlie pay.
District Attorney Woodford in a letter
gave as his reason for discontinuing the
suit that the General liad failed to file an
acceptance of ids appointment, and that
it was a mere technical mistake.
Augusta, Me., December 27.—Hon.
Lot Morrill came to Augusta this morn
ing by early train, and returned by a spe
cial train at 5 o’clock this evening. It is un
derstood that tlie object of bis visit was to

Ohio River Booming.
Cincinnati, December 27.—A rapid
rise in the river caused some apprehension
in the minds of tlie river people for the
safety of the boats and cargoes now at the
landing, and at tlie present rate will
reach the first floors of some of the houses
in the vicinity of Broadway and Main
streets by morning. Tte wharf boats are
almost up to the sidewalk. All along the
shore freight is being removed from tlie
teats as rapidly as possible. Damage to
tlie teats is apprehended from the action
of tlie swift current and from drift wood,
some of the latter being logs of large di
mensions, which are driven about with
great force.
New Orleans, December 27.—Mrs.
Clara Claviss, aged 103 years, was burned

Cincinnati, December 27.—A Little
Rock, Arkansas, dispatch says: Thomas
Edmunds, the murderer of Julia A. Sca-
brook and their child, was yesterday sen

tucky. ne left Washington county with
her and their child to goto Johnson coun
ty, but never arrived, and Edmunds sub
sequently turned up at bis Kentucky home,
and said bis companion bad died at Pop
lar Bluff, Missouri. Some months later

near Spradu landing, together with tlie
clothes of the missing woman and child.
One of the skeletons was identified as that
of Miss Seabrook by means of a plugged
tooth.
Affront to an American.
Washington, December 27.—United
States steamer Nipsic, commander C. N.
Schoomnaker, now at Norfolk, has teen
onion'd by the Navy Department to pro
ceed without delay to Laguazra, Venez
uela, to inquire into tlie circumstances of
the withdrawal or expulsion of Mr. Eck-
art, United States commercial agent at
that port, from Barcelona, to which place
lie liad been sent on public duty. Tbe
Nipsic will touch at St. Thomas to take
on board Mr. Eckart, who is reported a ^ „„
refugee at that place. On the completion j u ^ es i stand, thoroughly exhausted,
of this duty she will return to Hampton •> ■»
Roads. She will probably sail on her j News items.
St. Johns, N. B., December 27.—This
morning is very cold. At seven o’clock,
tte thermometer registered here at seven
teen degrees below zero, and at Frederick
Junction, twenty-nine below. The weath
er is milder to-night and a storm is prob
able.
THE MAINE MUDDLE.
The Trouble Increases, and Blood
shed is Probable.
Rockland, Me., December 27.—The
Greenbackers have issued a call for a
meeting of citizens at Farewell Hall on
Monday evening, to give expression to
their determination to vindicate the in
tegrity of the constitution and the law,
and to uphold the Executive of the State
in tlie faithful discharge of liis duty.
Gardiner, December 27.—Considera
ble dissatisfaction is reported among sev
eral prominent Democrats and Green
backers on account of clergy men address
ing an indignation meeting on Monday
night. There is much excitement here
over the Bangor affair. A petition has
been sent to the Governor and Council,
signed by 253 citizens of both parties,
urging the propriety, expediency and jus
tice of asking tbe judicial opinion of the
Supreme Court, in accordance with tlie
request contained in tbe communication
from non. Lot M. Morrill.
Belfast, Me., December 27.—A call
lieaded, “Law and Order,” invites the cit
izens of Belfast and vicinity, who are in
favor of sustaining the State authorities in
tlie faithful discharge of their constitution
al duties, and feeling that treasonable ut
terances of Republican meetings shall not
te permitted to go lorth as the sentiment
of the people of Maine, to meet Monday
evening to give expression to their feelings
in regard to tlie threatening aspect of our
State affairs. Tlie Governor is invited to
attend.
Belfast, Me., December 27.—Agree
ably to a call signed by a large number of
Republicans and Greenbackers a citizens
meeting, to discuss tlie counting out ac
tion,was held this evening. The meeting
was called to order by Dr. J. G. Brooks,
Representative elect, and Colonel William
H. Forger was chosen Chairman and C.
C. Sibley Secretary.
Speeches were made by several promi
nent citizens of tbe county, and a number
of letters were read. The general tone of
the speeches, letters and resolutions were
unqualifiedly condemnatory of the count
ing out action of the Governor
and Council, and while deprecating and
disavowing all intention of a resort
to arms, yet advise that every constitu
tional right should te maintained, and
when set aside or over-ridden must be
contested, step by step, and a final report
must be rendered at tlie bar of public
opinion as .will be expressed at tbe polls
in the future.
Boston, December 27.—Tlie corres
pondent of tlio Boston Herald telegraplia
that paper from Augusta, Maine, as fol
lows:
“Your correspondent met last evening
one of the Republican Congressmen from
tills State, and bad some conversation
with him on the present condition of af
fairs in the State, and what/lie future was
to bring with it, he declared himself
unable to foretell, but said he should te
gratified, not to say surprised, if a settle
ment was reached without bloodshed,
which lie evidently greatly fears. He did
not think radical or violent talk would
have much to do in increasing popular ex
citement. All that was needed to enrage
any honest citizen was to read the ac
count of what the Governor and Council
have done, and that would make any
man's blood boil.”
Heavy Loss bv Fire.
New York, December 27.—The large
clothing store of Dutton & Rhodes, of
Heaster street and Bowery, took fire to
night. Tlie smoke and flames burst forth
from tlie third floor windows at eleven
o’clock. Five engines were soon on the
spot, and the flames quickly got under
control—the, contents burning on the floor,
whidi was a total loss. It was occupied
by E. Deutsch & Son as a tobacco factory.
The flames liad reached the fourth floor,
occupied by Morris O’Brien as a manufac
tory of upholstery trimming, and had done
slight damage. On the second floor R. D.
Ralph’s branch of the Peter Cooper glue
factory, was damaged by water alone, but
tlie chief injury was done to the clothing
firm. Losses are said to aggregate about
$55,000.
The Walking Match Over.
New York, December 27.—The Inter
national walking match closed at Madison
Square Garden about eleven o’clock to
night and the score at tlie finish was as fol
lows : Ilart, 540§' miles; Krohne, 534?;
Faber, 531f; Pegram, 52S; Hughes, 520|;
Fitzgerald, 520J; Williams, 502j; Campa,

at 2:28 with 462. Cloud at 4:02 with 460
and Brady at four o’clock, thirty-two min
utes and twenty seconds with 450 miles.
Hart was loudly cheered as he buckled
the champion belt about his waist and
walked twice around the track. There
were upwards ot 5,000 persons present
during the evening.
Fitzgerald started on a brisk run, which
lie kept up for two hours, making sixteen
miles. Hart looked almost as fresh at the
finish as at the start on his five hundredth
mile. Campa dropped into a chair at the
Foreign.

tains tte names of those Indians who com
mitted a crime worse tlian murder or ar
son. A crime which is spoken of only j
with bated breath and which has not yet
even teen hinted at by the newspapers.
It is well known that the story oftbe
women as given to the public and their
testimony under oath differ widely, and
tte crimes of which they accuse the Indi
ans in their sworn testimony would suffice
to hang any man of whatever color, with
out tlie formality of trial, in the twinkling
of an eye.
That this list contains the names of tbe
Indian* who are accused of this nameless

not a sudden conclusion, but one whidi
will be fully supported when tne trial of

MIDNIGHT DISPATCHES.
The Irish Troubles.
Dublin, December 27.—Michael Dav-
itt, one of the political agitators recently
arrested in Dublin for using seditious
language and released on bail, has been
dispatched to the West of Ireland by the
already available for distribution.
London, December 27—A Paris dis
patch says tbe programme of M. de Frey-
cinct is an extensive purification of public
filed a counter affidavit, and when the
case was called for trial the plaintifls
made a motion to dismiss the defendants’
counter affidavit on the ground that they
had previously filed a counter affidavit In
the same case, and which had been dis
missed at a former term of the court, and
not on the ground that it was defective.
The defendants then immediately there
after made a motion to dismiss the plain
tiff’s distress warrant, and insisted that
the court should first hear and decide
their motion. The court heard the plain
tiffs motion first and sustained it, but de
clined to hear the motion of defendants^;
whereupon the defendants excepted. We
are not aware that this court has ever ex
pressly decided that a second counter af
fidavit could not be filed to a distress war
rant for rent, but this court has decided
that a second counter affidavit to a war
rant for the objection of an intruder could
not be filed, and tho same principle is ap
plicable to distress warrants for rent. See
36th Ga. Rep. 477 and other cases. If the
motion to dismiss the defendant’s counter
affidavit liad been predicated alone on a
demurrer to tbe sufficiency of it, the court
coaid not lmve looked to any evidence
other than that which appeared in tbe
face of the affidavit. Butin this case the
entire record of the prior proceeding had
in the case was before court, as appears
from the bill of exceptions, and when it
" appeared therefrom that a previous affida
vit to the same warrant and levy thereof
liad been adjudicated adversely to the de
fendants, there was no error in dismissing
tlis second affidavit. 2d Kelly’s Rep. 367;
61st Ga. Rep. 109. Let the judgment or
the court below te affirmed.
Goodyear & Harris for plaintifls in er
ror.
Mabry & Crovatt for defendant.
The City of Savannah vs. Brown. Appeal
from Chatham.
Warner, C. J.—Brown, the plaintiff,
sued the defendant in a justice’s court for
his Wages as a policeman, and an appeal
was taken therefrom to the Superior
court. On the trial of the case in the lat
ter court, tte juiy under charge of the
court found a verdict in favor of the plain
tiff. A motion was made for a new trial
on the grounds therein stated, which was
overruled, and tlie defendant excepted.
The plaintilf also filed a bill of exceptions
pendente lite to the decision of the court
in refusing to dismiss the appeal upon his
motion on the ground that the defendant
as a municipal corporation could not en
ter an appeal by filing a pauper affidavit
sworn to by its mayor. The mayor was
the executive officer of the corporation,
and as such, it was competent for him to
make and file the pauper affidavit in its
behalf for the purpose of obtaining the ap
peal, and there was no error in the refu
sal of the court to dismiss it. The court
charged the jury amongst other tilings,
“That tlie mayor of the city of Savannah
could dismiss a policeman from the force,
only when lie, the mayor, was sitting as
the presiding officer of the police court.
That if he liad tried Brown as such pre
siding officer he had the power to dismiss
him, but if he liad tried him in his capaci
ty as mayor only, his action was void, and
Brown never had been legally dismissed.
That even if he had discharged him while
in the capacity of presiding officer of the
tlie police court, the jury could inquire in
to tlie cause of discharge, and if they
found it insufficient could give tlie plain
tiff his wages. That they had heard tlie
evidence and must determine in wliat ca
pacity the mayor was acting when he dis
charged pi aintifl.” ,
This charge of the court was error in
view of the evidence in tlie record and
the law applicable thereto. The mayor
liad no jurisdiction under tlie law and or
dinances of the city to hear and determine
the question of the discharge of the plain
tiff as a policeman only in liis judicial ca-
cpacity as mayor (no matter in what ca
pacity he may have considered himself to
have been acting), and the court should
have so instructed the jury, and not have
left it to them to decide 111 what capacity
the mayor was acting when he discharged
the plaintiff as policeman. There is no
doubt that the Mayor of the city of Savan
nah, in his judicial capacity as such Mayor
under the law and ordinances of the city,
did have the power and authority to dis
miss the plaintiff as a policeman, and there
is just as little doubt that the plaintiff had
tlie legal right to have appealed from tlie
decision of the mayor, to the mayor and
aldermen of the city in counsel assembled,
which oppeal as appears from the evidence
in tlie record, was refused by the mayor
on the ground that no appeal lay from his
decision. The plain remedy for the plain
tiff was then to have applied for a manda
mus or certiorari, to correct that error of
the mayor, and to have enforced his legal
rights in the premises, but failing to have
done so, the question arises whether the
plaintiff is not now excluded by that
judgment of the mayor dismissing him as
policeman from recovering any wages as
such, subsequent to his discharge. This
view of the question was excluded by the
charge of the court, and a new trial must
be awarded.
Let the judgment of the court below be
reversed.
AVm. D. Harden, for plaintilf in error.

Hahersliam vs. Lehman. Complaint,
from Glynn.
Blaklky, J 1. A negotiable note be

full indorsement by a person other than
tlie paj-e will not hinder the blank indorse
ment by tlie paye from operating as evi
dence of title in the present holder.
2. Unless denial on oath, an indorse
ment need not te proved, (code section
2855,) and this is true though the name of
the indorser purport to have been signed
not by himself, but by liis agent or attor
ney in fact, and though the action te not
against the indorser, but against the ma
ker. A plea which seems to admit tbe in
dorsement is not a denial of it.
3. The presumption of law that the
holder was such bona fide and for value,
was not rebutted by the evidence, and no
defense to the action was established.

Fellows and Harrison vs. First Bryan
Baptist Church. Attachment, from
Chatham.
Bleckley, J.—1. A church incorpora
ted by the Superior Court cannot, as a
corporation, engage in the sale of tickets
to the public for an excursion on board a
steamer which the church has chartered
for the occasion. Expenses incurred with
a view to profit, and profits lost, cannot te
recovered from the owners of the vessel on
their failure to make the stipulated voy
age. Excursions, as matter of trade or
business with the public, are not within
the means or ends for which the
church was incorporated. The measure of
damages in a suit by the church against
the owners is the amount paid as hire for
the vessel.
2. AThen a vessel is chartered for an ex
cursion, the price paid, and a receipt
given, and the writing is silent as to the
capacity of the vessel, and she is overload
ed, and by reason of the overloading, to
gether with the state of the weather, the
excursion fails, parol evidence is admissi
ble to prove that the price was fixed with
reference to a carrying capidty for twelve
hundred passengers, it appearing that only
about seven hundred went aboard, and
that her government license restricted her
to five hundred,

Dillon & Sons vs. Bracken & Elsworth.
Complaint, from Glynn.
Jackson, J.—Before the books of
merchant or other tradesman can be used
to prove an account it must appear that
lie has no higher evidence of its truth, and,
therefore, that he had no clerk who sold
the goods, or that the clerk, if he had one,
is dead, beyond tho jurisdiction, or other
wise inaccessible. If he had no clerk who
sold the goods, or the clerk is inaccessible,
then before he can introduce his books
the book-keeper, if accessible, must be
produced to prove that it is the book of
original entries, if he had none, or if he
is inaccessible, then he - may prove that it
is the book of original entries himself.
Books are secondary evidence, and only
admissible ex necessitate rei.
2. Tlie hooks will not establish consid
erable items for cash, ner accounts of third
persons transferred to defendants; nor are
they admissible at all to show the author
ity to make such transfer. They may he
admitted to show that a transfer was
made pursuant to previous authority.
3. In a suit against a firm; in order to
bind an incoming partner with the debts
and liabilities of a private person or firm
to which'the defendants succeeded in the
same business, plaintiff must show some
agreement on tho part of the incoming
partner upon sufficient consideration to
assume such liabilities and pay such debts
before he can be bound, through tho new*
firm, to pay the old indebtedness.
4. Ought the agreemeritto te iu writing
as a promise to pay the debt of a third
person, quere ?
5. Where the transfer is made by the
authority of the old debtor, it must clear
ly appear that .knowledge thereof was
brought home to the incoming partner,
and that he acquiesced in it, before he
can be bound thereby.
6. Overpayments may he recovered in a
suit on an account, but' before such re
covery can be had, the overpayments must
be specified and pleaded as a set-off, and
with like particularity.
7. The Court is always at liberty to
open the case for new evidence before ar
gument is closed; and, unless abused, this
discretion exercised will not be inter
fered.
