The argumen' furnished in support of it is similar to the argument used in sup port of a government of force in then Southern States, that is that lh& people are rebellious, and fthe-ocly thing to keep them in chek-is special legislation, supplemented with a little standing army.

Under the Edmunds law polygamists were prohibited from the right of voting or holding office, and there is said to be not one'polyg amist in the territorial legislature elected last ptfmmer under that law. But they are all Mormons. Governor Murray does not consider polygamy the chief evil of the Mormon system, for out of the 150,( 00 population of the Territory, of whom 110,000 are Mormons, there are only 12,000 who practice polygamy. The chief trouble with the Governor eems to- be that the Mormons while yielding Obedi ence to constituted autnonty, ana moving on in the quiet tenor of their way,are a hierarchy-governed people, a government within a government so to speak,.-which at anylayinay come in conflict with the general government. 4 better reason for this hostility, since polygamy does not seem to be tne cause 01 compiaini, may probably be found in the fact that the Mormons, having a majority of the votes in the Territory, persist in electing Mormons to office, and in conducting the business over which they have control in their own way. While we have no sympathy what- ever witn?JV!Lpr monism or iorxnon domi while we recognize the trickery, deception and arbitrary power of the so-called Apostles, who gathered from the ignorant, credulous masses in thia country and Europe a following to build up an empire, so to speak, in the wilderness, there is a vast amount of cant and hypocrisy indulged, in by politicians in treating this question, with which we have as little syntipa thy. The United States government is itself responsible for many of the evils complained of, for it saw the Mormon power growing under its eves and made no effort to check it when it could havedone so with but 4lTttQu,biaahd now?after tiialapsa; of Mer ftttnix! ol4'uiMl called upon to put the knife to what it indirectly fostered in its grqw during all this time.

(From Advance Sheets of the 80th North Carolina Reports. 4 Montague vs Mial. 1. The jurisdiction conferred upon justices of the peace to try civil ac tions, where the property in contro versy' does not exceed $50, is concur rent with that of the Superior court. 2. An action for damages for re moving a crop is cognizable in the Superior court, The special jurisdic tion of justices of the peace under the landlord and tenant act (1876 67, chapter 283.) does not extend to torts, but is confined to actions for enforc ing conti acts. 3. The landlord's right to the crop to secure payment of rent is not im paired with the sub-letting of his tenant. The sub-tenant's crop may thereby be subjected to a double lien, that of the landlord and that of his immediate lessor, but the lien of the landlord is paramount. Mebane vs. Lay ton. 1. A homestead is exempt from sale under execution, except first, for taxes; secondly, for obligations con tracted for the purchase of the prem ises ; and thirdly, for debts contracted prior to the adoption of the constitu tion. 2. There is a presumption of fact in favor of such exemption, and the creditor , who seeks to subject the homestead to the payment ol his debt, must bring himself within one of the exceptions by propetaverment and proof. 3. A sale without laying off the homestead is void and passes no title. 4. The date of a judgment will be taken as the date of the debt upon which it was rendered, unless the contrary appear of record. Allen vs. Simpson. A judgment recovered upon a bond for less than sixty dollars, in an ac tion brough prior to the time when the code of civil procedure went into operation, is a valid judgment. This case is governed by the Revised Code, chap. 51, sec. 38, and it does not ap pear that the defendant availed him self of his right thereunder, either to plead in abatement or move to dis miss the suit. State vs. Craige. 1. The bare removal from the place where goods are found by the thief, (as in this case, wheat from one gar ner into the defendant's adjoining garner at a mill) is a sufficient aspor tation to constitute larceny, and a severance from the constructive pos session of the owner is also sufficient. 2. A motion in arrest of judgment cannot be grounded u pon the variance between allegation and proof ; it lies only for defects in the inoictment. 3. A new trial will not be granted by this court for a variance between allegation and proof, where no ex ception is taken in the court below. The presumption is that every fact necessary to sustain the verdict was proved on the trial. State vs Washington. 1, The judge, upon finding the fact that a juror fraudulently procured himself to be put on the jury to ac quit the prisoner, must withdraw a juror and direct a mistrial to be en tered, State vs. Bell, 81 N. C, 591; and this, whether the prisoner be connected with or cognizant of the fraud or not. In such cases there is no jeopardy, and the order remand ing the prisoner for trial by another jury was proper. 2. Held further, that even thouth no formal motion is made for the risoner's discharge in the court be ow, and denied, yet this court will, on his petition for certiorari, consid er his claim to exemption from anoth er trial. Mask vs. Tiller. 1. The statute of limitations bar ring actions for relief on the ground of fraud after three years from the discovery of facts constituting fraud, does not apply to a case where no frau 1, but only a mistake is alleged. i. The entorcement ot an equity will never be denied on the ground of lapse of time, when the party seeking it has been in continuous possession of the estate to which the estate to which the equity is an incident. 3. The court will lend its aid in ev ery such case, except where, by laches, tne party has abandoned his right and acquiesced in .its enjoy ment by another in a manner incon sistent with his own claim. The startling Decision ol the Supreme C'oart ol Georgia, Augusta, Ga., November 28 The Supreme, Qourt of Georgia in the case lof Ouhriingham against the Na tional Bank of Augusta has decided that cotton future notes are absolute ly void. Cunningham made a , note for $5,000 to Warren, Wallace & Co. in a cotton future transaction. The firm negotiated the note to the bank ithich sued Cunningham, who pleadi. ed that the note was void as it was. given on a gaming consideration The court says, that cotton futures are as much earning as faro, and that such notes are void in anybody's hands whether they knew thj nptes were given for futures ocuot. 1 ; 1 Death ol a Well Known chanf.
