FRIDAY MORNING, A119.13,1869
Decisions of the Supreme Court of Geor
gia.
Delivered at Atlanta , Tuesday , August 10
.REPORTED EXPRESSLY FOR THE CONSTI
TUTION, RY N. J. HAMMOND, SUPREME
COURT REPORTER.
Leopold Sternheiraer, plaintiff in error, vs.
Isaac Coleman, defendant In error. Ac
tion ou account, from Muscogee.
Brown, C. J.
1. It is the right of the court in the ex
ercise of a sound discretion, during the trial
of a cause to propound to counsel on either
side any question he may think proper or
pertinent to the case.
2. When a party has given up the man
agement of his case to his counsel, and is
on the stand testifying as a witness, and a
question is propounded by the opposing
counsel to winch his own counsel objects as
illegal, but lie expresses his willingness to
answer, it is not error in the court, if the
question propounded be illegal, to sustain
the objection and refuse to allow the an
swer to be given in evidence to the jury.
3. Where one of the items in plaintiffs
account is for money paid by plaintiff to a
railroad company for the use of defendant,
and plaintiff tenders a receipt from the ageut
of the company, signed as agent, showing
the paymeut, which is objected to, because
it is not in proof that the person siguing
the receipt is in fact agent, or that it is in
his handwriting, and the court overrules the
objectiou, an J allows the receipt to be read
in evidence, and the defendant in iiis testi
mony afterwards admits-that plaintiff (lid
pay for him to the railroad compauy the
precise amount mentioned in the receipt,
the admission of the receipt in evidence is
no ground for anew trial.
4. When two items in the account are
for mouey paid by plaintiff for the use. of
defendant at his request, and plaintiff of
fers in evidence the receipts of the persons
to whom the money was paid, which arc
ruled out because they are not stamped,
and the defendant admits in his testimony
that plaintiff paid for him to each of said
persons the amount specified iu the re
ceipt, but swears that he paid back to
plaintiff the money whicli he paid to one of
them; which the plaintiff iu his testimony
denies, and the receipts are permitted by
the Judge to be carried by the jury to their
room, with the other papers in the case, to
which defendant’s counsel afterwards states
in his place, he objected ; and one of the
jurors afterwards swears that he heard'de
fendant’s counsel say something about the
papers going to the jury, but cannot state
what he said, and does not state that the
jury either read or considered the receipts,
and neither the Judge nor opposing coun
sel have any recollection that such objec
tion* was made. He'd: That the fact that
the jury carried out the receipts under these
circumstances is uo sufficient cause for a
new trial.
Judgment affirmed.
Moses & Qerrard for plaintiff in error.
H. L. Beuning for defendant in error.
Martha Webb and Wesley Webb, plaintiffs
in error vs. Lafayette Harp, defendant in
error. Motion to dissolve injunction,
„ from Chattahoochee.
Brown, C. J.
Where a plaintiff in fi.fa. had a lot of
cotton, mules, etc., levied upon, and pend
ing the levy it was agreed between him and
the defendant that he should release the
property from the levy, and return it to the
defendant, and should enter the execution
fully satisfied, in consideration that defend
ant would convey to him a tract of land,
tEci-Wcckli) (Sjpnstitntiounlisl.
with certain personal property, in payment
of the ji. fa.-, and in compliance with said
agreement plaintiff' released and restored
the property levied upon, which was suffi
cient to have satisfied the fi. fa. to the de
fendant, and the defendant, delivered to the
plaintiff possession of the land and personal
property, and turned over to him the title
papers, and was to take him a deed as soon
as they could get it drawn, and defendant
died soon after, without making the deed ;
and his widow, who was admitted to be
insolvent, after the end of the year, finding
the premises vacant, took possession, claim
ing the land for her husband’s estate, and
commenced proceedings in the Superior
Court to have her dower allowed out of the
same, there being no legal representative of
her husbauds estate; and plaintiff filed his
hill alleging these facts, and praying that
she be restrained from trespassing upon the
land, and also from prosecuting her action
f6r dower until a legal representative of the
estate is appointed. Held: That it was not
error in the Judge, who gr inted the injunc
tion, to overrule a motion to dissolve it,
and to hold it up, until the serving of the
bill, placing his decision upon the ground
of restraining the trespass above.
Judgment reversed.
Blanchard & Minor, by Mr. Russell, for
plaintiff in error.
E. G. Raiford &D. H. Burts for defend
ant in error.
Andrew Jordan, plaintiff in error, vs. the
State of Georgia, defendant in error.
Burglary, from Muscogee.
Brown, C. J.
1. The penalty for the crime of burglary
was changed by the Legislature between
the commission of the crime by the defend
ant in the case and the time of his trial.
Held: Under section 4570 of the Revised
Code, that the defendant was properly
prosecuted and punished under the laws of
force at the time the crime was committed.
2. The evidence in this case was suffi
cient to sustain the verdict of the jury.
Judgment affirmed.

Joseph Douglas, plaintiff' in error, vs. M. S.
Thompson, defendant in error. Equity,
from Bibb:
Brown C. J.
When the equity of the bill is fully sworn
off by the answer and the' bill Is retained
for a hearing, and no irreparable mischief
can result; this Court will not control the
discretion of the Court below, in dissolving
the injunction.
Judgment affirmed.
Washington Poe, for plaintiff in error.
O. A. Lochrane, by Judge Clarke, for de
fendant in error.
Henry C. Pope, plaintiff in error, vs. W. U.
Garrard. Complaint, from Muscogee.
Brown, CL J.
1. By section 2207 of the revised Code it
io declared: “The destruction Os a tene
ment by lire, or the loss of possession by
any casualty, not caused by the landlord,
or from defect of Ids title, shall not abate
,lhe rent contracted to be paid.” Held:
Under this section of the Code and under
the former rulings of this court, if the prem
ises rented are destroyed by fire during the
term the tenant, under au ordinary rent
contract, is liable for payment of rent for
the full period for which he rented.
2. Where a room in a building was rent
led for a drug store, for one year, and three
notes were given at six, nine and twelve
months for the rent, and the building was
burned down a little before the end of six
mouths, the tenant is liable for the pay
ment of the two last notes as well as the
first.
3. The counters and drawers in a drug
store, placed there by the landlord, and
rented in their place with the store, are
fixtures, which tenant has uo right to re
move, and if the bulling is burnt, and they
are saved by the tenant, they are the prop
erty of the landlord, and he has the legal
right to dispose ot them as lie thinks
proper. The tenant has no right to remove
them to another store rented from a third
person.
4. The fact that the landlord has the
building insured does not eliauge the
rights or liability of the tenant.
Judgment affirmed.
McCay, J., dissenting.
James M. Russell for plaintiff in error.
Moses & Garrard for defendant iu error.
E. Whelchel vs. O. B. Thompson. Parti
tion, from Hall.
McCay, J.
1. The pendency of a former suit for the
same cause of action, is a proper matter to
be pleaded in abatement, aud if the parties
go to trial ou the merits, the defendant can
not set this up in law.
2. If, iff au application for a partition of
lands, the defense be that there has been a
partition, by commissioners who made no
return, but that the. parlies had acquiesced,
find had subsequently, under said partition,
each occupied for several years his portion
as set off, to the exclusion of the others,
and made valuable improvements, so that
it would be a fraud upon either to repudi
ate the division, it is error in the court to
charge the jury that this adverse and inde
pendent possession by each of his part
must, in order to constitute a defense to an
application for anew partition, have con
tinued seven years.
Judgment reversed.
W. Boyd and C. R. Simmons, by George
Hillyer, for plaintiff iu error.
E. M. Johnson for defendant in error.
Hole. — Brown, C. J., did not preside in
this case.
Rivers Reese vs. D. H. Burls, administra
tor, etc. Illegality, from Chattahoochee.
McCay, J. »
1. A temporary administrator may file an
“ illegality ” to an executive proceeding to
sell the intestate’s lands, and the perma
nent administrator will, on motion, be al
io wed to become a party to the proceeding.
2. An execution to enforce a judgment
must follow the judgment, and if there be
a material variance, the execution will be
quashed.
3. When a decree directs that certain
described lands shall be sold to satisfy a
lien for the purchase money, with a proviso
that this shall not interfere with the wid
ow’s dower, and that the parcels set off to
her shall be “ free from -the force of the
lien.” Held: That a fair' construction of
the judgment is, that the lien is to be en
forced against all the lands described, but
not to proceed against the dower lands un
til the death of the widow.
4. Held further, That on proof of the
death, the court will direct execution to
issue against all the lands, but that it is il
legal for the clerk, without an order of the
court, to issue an execution directing the
sale of the whole, without qualification,
even if the fact be that the widow is dead.
5. The vendor’s lien for the purchase
money, when it exists, stands under the
Code on the same footing as a mortgage, in
the distribution of an estate, and it does
not lose its priority, even if not reduced to
judgment until after tbe death.
Judgment affirmed.
E. G. Raiford for plaintiff in error.
D. H. Burts for defendant in error.
John H. Lovelace, vs. Chas. H. Smith, el. al.
Debt from Harris.
Warner, J.
When a suit was instituted on a guard
ian’s bqud against the principal ainl surety,
to reedver the amount of a judgment al
leged to have been rendered against <he
guardians, and when the judgment was or
sered in evidence, it appeared eo have been
rendered against the defendant therein in
hrt-individual capacity, and not as guard
ian—the plaintiff then moved the court to
amend the judgment upon the ground that
it was rendered by a note signed by the de
fendant in his individual capacity, but in
the body thereof promised to pay the plain
tiff the amount specified in the note “as
guardian ” without stating for whom he
was guardian—the court refused the
motion to amend the judgment, and non
suited the plaintiff’s case upon the evidence
offered to charge the guardian and his sure
ty in a suit upon his guardian’s bonds, for
the amount of the judgment claimed by the
plaintiff. Held: That the guardian could
not by any contract bind the estate of his
ward so as to render his surety liable there
fore, other than such as are specially al
lowed by law as provided by the Code, and
that there was no error in the refusal of
the court to allow the judgment to be
amended, and in granting the nonsuit, upon
the statement of facts contained in the re
cord ; see sections 1828-1821 of the Code.
Judgment affirmed.
L. L. Standford, for plaintiff in error.
Jas. M. Mobley, by L. E. Bleckley, for
defendant in error.
John C. F. McCook vs. Paulina Cousins.
Motion for new trial, from Chattahoo
chee.
Warner, J.
When C, and E, a freedman, entered into
an agreement to rent land and make a crop
for that year, and in pursuance of such
agreement, E, the freedman, rented land
from M and cultivated the same, ancl made
a crop thereon ; and from the evidence in
the record, the jury had a right to presume
that M had knowledge of the agreement
between C and E as to the manner in which
they were workiug and making a crop to
gether. Held: That M could not retain out
of the proceeds of the crop C’s share there
of for provisions furnished to E, without
the conseut of C, the more especially when
it appears that M had made a special con
tract vvith E, the freedman, to furnish him
with provisions for that year, and had taken
other security therefor. Held: Also, that, in
view of the facts of this case, as presented
by the record, the court lie low did not err
iu refusing to charge the jury as requested,
nor In the charge as givefi to the jury on
the trial of the case.
Judgment affirmed.
D. H. Burts for plaintiff in error.
E- G. Raiford for defendant in error.
B. Hawkins vs- Thurston & Andrews. Tres
pass, from Muscogee,
Warner, J.
When the court below granted anew trial
in a case, upon the ground that two of the
jurors who tried the same were members
of the grand jury and had found a true bill
against the defendant, which fact was not
known to defendant until after the trial.
Held : That this court will not control the
discretion of the court below iu granting a
new trial npou the statement of facts con
tained iu this record.
Judgment affirmed
Ramsey & Ramsey, P. Brannon, for plain
tiff in error.
Ingram & Crawford, (by the reporter,) for
defendant in error.
SPECIAL MOT
Hurley’s Sarsaparilla and Potash
Maintains the searetions, especially thso of the
skin and kidneys, increases nu'rition, and allays
moibid irritability of the nervous and circulating
systems. Ilenco an admirable remedy for debility
during or after a mercurial course, and for tbe multi
farious variety of symptoms which arise, when the
health is broken down, as well as by tbe disease us
by its remedy. For Scrofula, it is the most certain
cure.
DISEASED KIDNEYS,
if neglected, are almost certain to end fatally, some
times the patient dies of exhaustion and obstinate
vomiting; sometimes of suppression of urine, and
coma; sometimes in a sudden lit of severe shivering ;
and sometimes of a rapid attack of acute inflamma
tion. In the treatment, the golden rule must be ob
served, so forcibly stated by Dr. Trout, that modera
tion in the quantity is of quite as much consequence
as attention to tbe quality of food. Os alcoholic
liquors, sound sherry of the drier kinds or small
.qualities of brandy or Ifpllunils and wafer are the best.
In the medical treatment, HURLEY'S COMPOUND
SARSAPARILLA AND POTASH has proved
highly b nellcial f»m its vegetable alkali principles,
wi.ich Entering into the blood, possesses the property
of abstracting from it a quantity of nitrogenous mat
ter sufficient for its conversion into hippntic acid, anr,
in this veiy soluble form is readily excreted, and ex
pels disease from the kidneys. It may therefore be
given with coufldcnce that it will limit, if not cure,
the disease.

THE CONDITIONS OF HEALTH.
It is idle to expect healt it the precautions ncces
saiy to secure it are neglected. The human organizi
tion Is a delicate piece of mechanism, and lequires as
much iiitellit-ent care and watchfulness to keep it in
order, as are requisite in the management of tho
most complicated combination of levels, wheels and
pinions.
At this season of the year the holy is peculiarly
sensitive, because It is greatly weakened and relaxed
by the continuous heat. The skin, in Summer, wilh
its millions of pores wide open, is a very difil-rent sort
of tegument from the compact fibrous coveiing which
It becomes under the action of the Wintei’s cold.
The muscles, too, are comparatively flaccid, the
nerves tremulous, the blood poor, and the whole frame
less capable of enduring fatigue and resisting disease,
than in cool weather. These indications of ad -press
ed condition of tho vital forces are so many unmis
takable hint - that nature needs teinforciug.
Ordinary stimulants will not eflect this ohject. 'J iiey
inflame and excite, but do not strengthen. Tiie only
preparation which can he .depended upon to impart
staminal vigor to the system, and eDahle it to endure
the ordeal of the heated term without giving way un
der the pressure, is HOSTETTER’S STOMACH
BITTERS, a tonic and corrective so pure, so harm
less, bo utterly free from the drawbacks which render
many of the powerful astriug mts employed iu medi
cal practice more dangerous than the ailments they
aie employed lo cure, that it may be administered
without fear to the feeblest female invalid, or the most
delicate child. The cathart c and alterative vegetable
ingredients, which are combined with those of a tonic
nature in its composition, keep the bowels moderately
free and perfectly regular, while the work of invigo
ration is going on. Tbe finest blood depurents which
the herbal kingdom affords are also among Us com
ponents, so that it recruits, purifies and regulates tbe
system simultaneou-ly. anl-tl6

Ayer’s Sarsaparilla,
FOR PURIFYING THE BLOOII.
The reputation this ex.
----— v cellent medicine enjoys,
is derived from its cures,
r £ r-\ A many of which are of a
I_JL iat truly marvellous char.
wHbw acter. Inveterate cases
ff oij of Scvopila, where the
Jk system seemed utterly
I Jr& v given up to corruption,
1 have yielded to this coin
vwr * ® pound of anti-strumoua
----- virtues. Disorders of a
|Sg9§p* scrofulous type, and af
-afeS3sSHSw«^r’*--’ feetions which are merely
aggravated by the presence of scrofulous matter,
have been radically cured in such numerous in
stances, in every settlement in the country, that the
public do not need to be informed here that it is in
most cases a specific and absolute remedy.
Scrofulous poison is one of the most destructive
enemies of our race. Often, this unseen and unfelt
tenant of the organism undermines the constitution,
and invites the attack of enfeebling or fatal diseases,
without exciting a suspicion of its presence. Again,
it seems to breed infection throughout the body, and
then, on some favorable occasion, rapidly develop
into one or other of its hideous forms, either on the
surface or among the vitals. In the latter, tuber
cles may be suddenly deposited in tho lungs or
heart, or tumors formed in the liver. These facta
make the occasional use of the Sarsaparilla as %
preventive, advisable.
It is a mistake to suppose that so long as no erup
tions or humors appear, there must be no scrofulous
taint. These forms of derangement may never
occur, and yet the vital forces of the body be so re
duced by its subtle agency, as materially to impair
the health and shorten the duration of life. It is a
common error, also, that scrofula is strictly heredi
tary-. It does, indeed, descend from parent to child,
but is also engendered in persons bom of pure
blood. Low living, indigestion, foul air, licentious
habits, nncleanliness, and the depressing vices gen
erally, produce it. Weakly constitutions, where not
fortified by the most constant ahd judicious cave,
are peculiarly liable to it. Yet the robust, also,
whose turbid blood swells the veins tfith an appar
ently exuberant vitality, are often contaminated,
and on the road to its consequences. Indeed, no
class or condition can depend on immunity from,
it, nor feel insensiblo to the importance of an effec
tual remedy.
In St. Anthony’s Fire, Rose or Erysipelas,
fbr Tetter, Salt Rheum, Scald Head, Ring
worm, Sore Ears and Eyes, and other eruptive
or visible forms of the diseases caused primarily by
the scrofulous infection, the Sarsaparilla is so ef
ficient as to be indispensable. And in the more
concealed forms, as in Dyspepsia,Dropsy, Heart
Disease, Fits, Epilepsy, Neuralgia, and other
affections of the muscular and nervous systems, the
Sarsaparilla, through its purifying powciN re
moves tho cause of the disorder and produces aston
ishing cures.
The sarsaparilla root of tho tropics docs not by
itself achieve these results. It is aided by the ex
tracts combined with it, of still greater power. Se
potent is this union ofliealing virtues, Syphilis or
Venereal and Mercurial Diseases are cured by
it, though a long time is required for subduing these
obstinate maladies by any medicine. Lcucorrhoea,
or Whites, Uterine Ulcerations, and Female
Diseases in general, are commonly soon relieved
and ultimately cured by the invigorating and puri
fying effect of our Sarsaparilla. Rheumatism
and Goat, otten dependent on the accumulations of
extraneous matters in the blood, have their remedy
also in this medicine. For Diver Complaints ,
torpidity, inflammation, abcess, etc., caused by
rankling poisons in tho blood, we unhesitatingly
recommend the Sarsaparilla.
This medicine restores health and vigor where no
specific disease can be distinguished. Its restora
tive power is soon felt by those who are Languid,
Listless, Despondent, Sleepless, and filled with
Nervous Apprehensions or Fears, or who are
troubled with any other of those affections symp
tomatic of weakness. Many, after taking it foe
General Debility, have written us of the youth
ful vigor imparted to their nervous system, which
seemed buoyant with that prolific life they thought
had departed on the advance of ago. Others, whose
fountains of life were always sterile, acknowledge
their obligations to it for an obvious change.
Ayer’s Ague Cure,
For fever and Ague, Intermittent fe
ver, Chill fever, Remittent fever.
Dumb Ague, Periodical or Billon*
fever, Ac., and indeed all the affec
tions which arise from malarious,
marsh, or miasmatic poisons.
As its name implies, it does Cure, and does not
Zinc, nor any*o§ier mineral or poisonous substance
whatever, it in nowisq injures any patient. Th«
number and importance of its cures in the ague dis
tricts, are literally beyond account, and webelieve
without a parallel in the history of medicine. Our
pride is gratified by the acknowledgments we re
ceive of the radical cures effected in obstinate cases,
and where other remedies had wholly failed.
Unacclimated persons, either resident in, or
travelling through miasmatic localities, will be pro
tected by taking the AGUE CURE daily.
For Liver Complaints, arising from, torpidity
of tho Liver, it is an excellent remedy, stimulating
the Liver into healthy activity. sw-Hpai
