When a party asks the court to instruct the jury that there was no evi fence tending to provea material allega tion, and an appeal is taken from the refusal so to charge, the " case" must set out the evidence to ennbte this court to pass upon the correctness of the refusal.

A married woman has a right to receive hr own property and a cheque on a fund in bank, collected andplaced there by l:er at torneys, payable to her agent, but without her husband's written assent is not a ' con veyance" of her property forbidden by the Constitution.

The tK v W. R. R. Co. The act of the Legislature imposing a penalty on a common carrier for more than five days' delay iu shipping goods is constitutional. The " Granger cases," lately decided by the United States Supreme Court is conclusive on the point. Preference in shipment should be given to local freight. Instead of being an excuse, " the delay of local freights caused by lack of e.irs, which lack is caused by the pressure of through freight," caused by the induce ments held out by Railroad Companies, is the very evil which the statute is designed to prevent. Being a penal statute the computation of time Is that roost favorable to the defendant, loth, and the first penal day was the ltiih of October. . Rumpass vs. Chambers. Where an execu tor consents to and pays over a legacy he can not recover it or any part of it back to pay debts unless he shows special chcutn- stances. Where the legacy paid over is a legacy for life, the executor can not recover possession of it on tho ground that there is danger of its being wasted or destroyed. The remainder men are to protect their own rights. State ex. rel. Attorney-GeneraJ. vs. IJeaton. Where a Judge of Probate fails to open his office on Monday and keep it open from 9 a. m- till 4 p- m. on that date, it is ter 90; sections 15 and iQ of Batt .. n kio Affl..nio tt uuder chap Battle's Revisal, a forfeiture of his office unless the absence is caused by sickness, and suit can be brought to enforce the forfeiture. A failure on one Monday is sufficient. A suit to declare the forfeiture is not a criminal proceed ingf nor hardly any means of communication.

A PUOPESSIO VAL RATCA TCHEJ2 IIO If HE OPERATE!. S Bichard Toner, a .professional 'rat catcher ot considerable notoriety in New York city, arrived in St.; Louis yesterday, and has ta- kena contract to rid the Lindell House ot I rats HeimpanlHlle ..r,,) hM , r . . ir and has a regular trained ferret. Mr. Fotur says rats begin to breed at the age of three months, and once every month thereafter prouuee a utter , or thirteen : but the num- ber of the litter never varies, and is alwiys composed of twelve males and dne femajej If the number of females were as great as males, rats would become a plague that all the terriers and rat-catchers in the country could not keep down. - ' He began operations at the Lindell last night in the presence of half a dozen persons. He armed-himself with-a dark lantern, a gunny bagg, and a neculiarily cdnstructed pair of tongs, or nippers, 'i h tons are about two and a half feet long, and have handles like shears. Mr. Toner gave the bag to his assistant, and took the dark lantern in his left hand and the tongs in his rijjht. Equipped in this manner he crept about the cellars among barrels and boxes, and every now and then seized a rat with the tongs. The assistant, who kept right at his heels, instantly opened the mouth of the bag and the'rat was dropped: into it, the process of the capture not occupying over ten seconds. He says that when he throws the strong light from the lantern upon a rat it does not run, but simply turns so as to prevent the light from shining in its eyts. As it turns there is no difficulty jn? seizing it with the tongs. Mr. Toner did not make any. use of his ferret until about 1 o'clock, when everything was quiet about the house. He first went all over the premises, examining the rat holes to familiariza himself with the rats' holes to run through when jthey are fright ened, and that any experienced rat-catcher can soon learn bow these holes lead. After acquiring this knowledge he went his ferret into a rat hole and stationed himself at the other end of the hole. For instance, he found a rat hole in the pantry, and traced its course down into the cellar, where it came out in some corner. , He started the ferret into the hole up stairs and stationed himself below with his tonga. The ferret pushed his way along the turnings of the hole and drove the rats aheatl of him. As the rats ran from the hole in the cellar Toner picked them, up with his tongs and dropped them into his bag Toner owns! the lares- rat pit in New York. St. Lotih Times. BA TTLE OF RAMSOUR'S MILL. This battle was fought on the 20th qf June, 1780, on land now owned by Capt. Wallace Reinhardt, Clerk of the Superior 4- Court of Iiincoln county. The battle ground is half a mile North of the village of Lincolnton. The Tories had assembled there to the number of 1,400, under a Liieut Colonel Moore, when they were attacked and defeated by Col. Locke with 400- men. All the advantages of prestige and position were on the side of the Tories. Charleston ' had fallen on the 12th of May of that year, and on the 29th of that same month Tarleton had butchered the almost unresisting com mand of Buford in the Waxhaw settlement. There were no mails in those days and told the people that the rebel cause was lost, and thev Droffered money to all who would ;0iQ their standard. The Tories under Moore occupied a wooiea knoll with an open field of 200 yards in fronti over which the Whigs would have to attack them. Notwithstanding these advantages, Gen. Rutherford, who, was encamped below Char- lotte with 500 men, resolved to marcl attack, and he sent an express to Colpnel .i m ui. reacnea ijocKe, auu omuci ucgau u march on his own responsibility.

A REM AUKAhLF DWARF. Count Joseph Bornwalski was nptly termed," a perfect copy of nature's finest work in duodecimo." His intellect was remarkable-and was early developed. He spoke several languages. To sounduess of understanding he combined quickness tf anwrel tension and solidity of iudgment. He eoou acquired an elegance of deport- ment only attained by intercourse with polished society. He was born in Challez in 1739, and measured but eight inches at birth. He was exceedingly well propor- tioned, and became & protege of the Count ess Humiska, a woman distinguished in her birth and personal accomplishments. She soon took him on a tour through the lead ing courts of Europe. He reached Vien na at the age of fifteen, and at that time was but twenty-five inches in height. He saw Maria Theresa, who became much at tachedtohim. ' That great princess was at that time at war with the King of Prussia. The Queen asked the dwarf his opinion of the Prussian monarch. "Madam, said he, " I have not the honor to know him. Were I in his place,; instead of waging a useless war against you, I would come to Vienna to pay my respects, thinking it more honor to gain your esteem than to gain a victory from yon." The Queen took him in her lap and kissed him. He 'bed. The Queen asked him what he was laughing at, his quick reply was: Toseelo small a man on the lep of so reat a woman." This answer procured him fresh caresses. He gazed at a ring on the hand of the Queen once when sit ting on her lap, and she asked him if he thought it pretty. " It is not the ring Bornwalski replied : I was looking at, but ! the hand 1 beseech your majesty to kiss." This was granted," and the Queen took from her daughter a diamond ring and save it to Bornwlaeki. The young lady from whose finger the ring was taken was the unfortunate Marie Antoinette, after ward Queen of France Maria Thersea inade .strenuous efforts to have the dwarf remain, a member of her court, but the Countess Humiska would thro? thg of its vast not consent to the arrangement. emPire n at heart When the Paris Count Olinski gave an '? d. nd death.
