(a) Hence for cause shown by ball why _ recognizance should not be finally forfeited, objections that the warrant on which there* cognizance was founded was Illegal in that it Bad no affidavit sufficient In law to support It; and that the warrant describe 1 noofleuse poarancc of tbe principal at the Superior Court of Scrlven county, and hence its condition haa uever been broken, were of too general and indefinite character to be considered. 2. It is i ot necessary in an affidavit for as sault w ilh intent to murder to specify that the assault was made with a weapon likely gm produce death. Code 4;15. 3. it is doubtful under section 4715 of the codo whether warrant issuing on affidavit must specify tbe person on whom the assault was made; but lu this case the affidavit specl ties the person, and there was enough in tho warrant to identify the affidavit on^whl ’• '* Issued. • 4. Tbe recognizance did not mention tho court to which it was returnable as plainly as it might havo done, but tbe preliminary pro ceedings show (which It was agreed tha court below might iuspect and pass on), that no other than the term of the Superior Court next and brought before the magistrate, waived au examination, aud the magistrate entered this fact on the warrant and ordered that inasmuch ... commencement of RH Iconnty to answer ssid charge, that be be discharged from fur ther custody; this order and the recognizance which shows on its face It was executed In that county, both boro tho samedato and were taken, algned and attested by tbe same Hence we must hold that the term of the couitto which the rcosuizance was returua-| b:e, does sufficiently appear.

The facts In this esse show that the owner of the land in question published a map of the lota and streets and actually sold the same to those from v- w — the defendant purchased.

If a telegraph company receives a message for transmission and does transmit it it is answerable tothe sender for damage caused by failure to transmit cor rectly. An intervening cause, such as a sudden storm or natural disturbance, might excuse non-transmission, or failure io transmit cor rectly, if the company could show that it could not know and ascertain whether the message had been properly sent or not. Generally such companies have the means to know or ascertain whether a message s nt has been altered or changed in its transmis sion, and (hey must at their peril see to It that all messages are cent and delivered without alteration or chance. 2.
