The Supreme Court rendered a
decision yesterday which shows that
that judicial body is down on deal
ing in futures.
The case in which the decision
was rendered was an appeal from
Richmond superior court. It was
that of the National Exchange Hank
of Augusta against Robert E. Cun
ningham. Cunningham gave his note
to Warren, Wallace & Co., cotton
dealers of Augusta, who transferred
it to the bank. Payment was refus
ed and the bank brought suit. The
plea was that the note was given as
f >art of a “future’* contract. In de-
ivering the opinion, which was able
and exhaustive, Justice Hlaudford
•aid : “If this is not a speculation
on chances, a wagering and # betting
between the parties, then we are un
able to understand the transaction.
A betting on a game of faro, brag or
poker can not be more hazardous,
dangerous or uncertain. Indeed, it
may be said that these animals arc
tame, gentle and submissive, com
pared to this monster. The law has
caged them and driven them to their
dens; they have been outlawed,
while this ferocious beast has been
allowed to stalk about in open mid
day, with gilded signs and llaming
advertisement to lure the unhappy
victim to its embrace of death and
destruction.’’
The business of selling and buy
ing cotton futures has grown, in
spite of persistent opposition from
the pulpit, the legislative halls and
the bench, to enormous proportions.
Now and then the “bucket shops’’
Lave received a rebuff wheu they
sought to enforce their contract dir
ectly ; but they have managed to
avoid this, to a considerable extent,
by taking ficgotiable notes ami trans
ferring them lo innocent holders, in
whose hands it was supposed they
were good.
The Supreme Court took a crush
ing blow against this entire system
of speculation, holding that the whole
business was a vast gambling scheme;
that all contracts or notes based on
“futures'* were gaming contracts, and
absolutely void, and that th-y were
not good even in the hands of an in
nocent purchaser.
A Chicago papei observes that there
are three causes of business ruin—
the dishonesty of some member of the
firm, or some employe; the improper
expansion of business and credit, and
outside speculations. This seems to
cover the whole ground.
Where is Yenor? He is evidently
not attending to his business like he
ought to, or we would have had sleet
or snow before this time, despite the
prevailing drouth. Anything that
would turn to water and wet the earth
would be.welcomed in these parts just
now.

“I don’t altogether like this young
man Millikin who comes to see you
so often. I hear he is nothing but a
poor dr}' goods clerk,” is what the
head of the family said to his daugh
ter one day at the dinner table.
“He is a very nice young gentle
man,” replied the daughter, “besides
he is something more than 4 a poor
dry goods clerk.” He gets a large
salary and is manager of one of the
departments, and expects some day
to.have an iuterestin the business.”
“I hope he may,** responded the
old man, “but he strike- me as a very
fifppant, impertinent young person,
and in my opinion he should bo sat
down upon.*’
“Well, 1 bave invitee him lo take
tea with us this evening,*" said the
daughter, “and 1 hope you will treat
him politely at least. You will find
him a eery different person from what
you supposed him to be.”
“Ota, 1*11 treat him politely enough.”
he said.
That evening Mr. Milliken appear
ed at supper, and made a most favor
able impression upon the old gentle
man. “He is a clever young fellow
after all,” he thought.
“I have done him an injustice.*’

“Silence, sir!” shouted the father,
swallowing a mouthful of hat potato.
But the little boy wouldn’t silence.
“It’s all right,’* he continued confi
dentially, but in a whisper loud
euough to be heard out doors, “he has
been sat down upon, bister sat
down on him last night for two
hours.*’
After this the dinner went on more
quietly, owing to Bobby’s sudden
and jerky departure.

A Lewiston (Me.) boy one day last
week learned in some way that furs,
and especially cats’ for, had riseit in
price and were iir great demand.
That night a neighbor’s cat fell a vic
tim to the youngster’s greed. The
boy talked learnedly of furs at the
table the next day. His eyes were
fixed on the family cat, bnt she was
unfortunately white, and white mafia
are not in fashion, and the youngster
knew it. The cat’s akin was removed
and stretched upon a board, and
black cat’s akin sunned on the back
shed throughout the day. The next
day, after tbe mills shut down, there
was not a more industrious boy than
he. Every furrier in the city looked
down that evening into an anxious
boy’s face and was obliged to decline
an invoice of cat’s furs cheap for
cash. It was a tired boy who climbed
into his little bed that night and
vowed vengeance on the man who
was responsible for the exertion. He
told his story at the' mill next day.
Some one told him that a cat-skin
was not so much a first class fashion
able fur as it used to be, hut it was
a great thing for spavins on horses
The next day the hoy was industrious
again. Every stable keeper in the

bright-eyed boy on the subject of
spavined horses Some of them paid
no attention. Some of them looked
over his goods, while the boy waited
expectantly. “It nearly broke my

A story or Thaddeus Stevens.
Philsdetplils Press.
It is related of Thaddeus Stevens
that shortly after his .removal to
Lancaster he heard of an old friend
in York, a lawyer, who pressed hard
by necessity, had diverted to his own
use $300 due to a widow client,
hoping soon to repay her. But “un
merciful disaster followed faster and
followed faster,” until [lie poor, fel-j
low's mental distress was actually
hilling him.
Mr. StcvcnshiiHfcd up the client,
paid her from his owu pocket the
$300, obtained her receipt and went
to see his friend. Hello I old fel
low,” he exclaimed on entering his
office, “you must wake up. Don’t be
so downhearted. Say, don’t you
suppose you've really gone and paid
that woman and.then forgotten, it?”
A despairing shake of the bowed
head was the only reply. “Well,
well, I be ieve you did, and I’m going
to look through your papers and see
if I can find thj! receipt.” Then he
pretended to rumsack some pigeon
holes, and a moment later exclaim
ed, “Well, if you’re not the biggest
tool I ever heard of I Look here, old
man! What’s this?’
So saying, he showed the receipt
to his astonished friend, who there
upon recovered his spirits, and, hap
pily, his fortunes also. Afterward
he repaid Mr. Stevens and the latter
was never able to find out how his
generosity was detected.

New Tore, December 1.—Rev.
Henry Ward Beecher’s discourse at
Plymouth church regarding his re- a
cent trip throughout the country at-
cts much attention. Speaking of
s colored people, he said: “The
lory.of religion is that all men
re bom equal, but as humanity is
now, prudence and wisdom indicates
that social equality should not be en
forced, and that men should grow
into the relationships that are neces-
,sary. We do not feel bound to asso
ciate with every nation that sends us
emigrants here. We let them work
their way up by solid merit into our
respect, and then there is no diffi
culty.

thing is certain, an inferior race will
uever stand alongide of a superior
race, and the road of the colored peo
ple up to social equality is the road
ot talent, virtue, intelligence and re
ligion, and they are traveling on that
road, and the future will take care of
itself. The decision of the Supreme
Court, which is regarded as adverse
to the rights of the colored people of
the South, was a matter of very great
excitement on their part I told
them that I thought on the whole it
wonld work in the end to be to their
advantage. They are no longermain-
tained in their rights by the hand of
the government. They stand now
committed to tho kindness and the
generosity of those around them,
and j ust ao far as they earn respecta
bility they will rise, in spite of the
want of that protection which was
supposed to be guaranteed to them
by the constitution of the United
States. I believe in the stock; I be
lieve in their future; I believe they
will achieve liberty and respectabili
ty, and as much social equality as is
good for them or for us.

that the coroner’s jury in tho case

A correspondent, writing from

lay them opeu to all the influences

the same as you do among the

Capt. Fleweilen had a new experi

Stewards of the Methodist church in
this city it fell to his lot to read the

the year 1883. Proceeding to pef-

documents and was giving a pleas
ant introduction to his statement
when the bell rang the alarm of fire.
The crowd of men in attendance at
once got out of the house, without
standing on the order of their going,
and left the Captain, the ladies and
a few small children to hear his re

Coucering the fire, at this place.
Sunday night Mr. Kit Warren says:
“I returned from church and went
lo bed at 10. Around me were my
books, papers, clothing and every
thing I expected to. need or purchase
during the Homing’ yvinter. I yvent
^asleep.
^Presently I was roused, to a slug
gish semi-wakefulness, by a greater
noise from the rats than I had ever
heard there before, but I did not
look to see what they were doing
and was soon again slumberiug,
About 3 o’clock I awoke to find the
large pile of light wood in the South
west corner of the room, near the
door, in a big blaze which had made
considerable headway with the build
ing, and was flaming along the ceil
ing. The room was small, cvcrvting
dry and the bare possibility of
saving something—anything was
all that remained. My bedstead was
close to the window, and, with the
aid of uncle Sampson, I saved the
mattress, pillows and one sheet, also
an old overcoat which I snatched
from a neighboring nail as I started to
leap from the window. My books
were a great solace to me, and my
other possessions useful, necdod and
obtainedat some little cost,but I,could
cheerfully see them ail go, for I am
well and healthy and abundantly
able and willing to work tor more.
But money cannot replace the sou
venirs I lost. The old arm chair iu
which mv father sat befoce.L-was
born, tbe leliots of which my mother
written far back in the morning of
life, the pictnre of my sister who
died in 18G1, the last earnest, elo
quent, affectionate letter written by
my uncle, General Eli Warren, three
days before his death—these and
many other treasured heirlooms can
never be replaced or substituted.
But for the sadness caused by
the loss of these relics I might at
tempt (as you say your subscribers
wish aud expect me to) give an
epistolary account of the fire with a
sprinkling of such humor as I could
bring to bear. Tbe scene and sub
ject are not unproductive of mate
rial for such a letter, bat my feelings
rebel against the thought of putting
them in form.
The burning was caused by the
rats working with the matches. The
night was warm aud no tire had
been built.
I know no person about here
would have fired the house. Dur
ing my absence, at Cumberland, a
friend left the door open and it re
mained so for weeks, with clothing
hung up around the room, every
thing exposed to view of those who
passed along the street in front, no
person living near and no possible
danger of detection or even suspi
cion, and yet not a thing was taken
and I have, therefore, no idea the
fire was in, payment of a grudge.
After all, this burning is a matter of
but little importance. It reminds
me of the remarks made by the
weeping paddy to Ilia dying brother:
“Ah, Michael, mee lad, the world
won’t miss ye, nor the parish won’t
mira ye, liar the praste won’t m'
ye, but, no mistake, old fellow, j ell
miss yourself mightily.”
