That a decree against a defendant, the surety of a guardian, is not violated by a plea of bankruptcy unsupported by proof.

That in a proceeding in the Probate Court 1o have an estate declared insolvent, if it appears that the ass in the hands of the executors is the of $1,610 92, and that the amount the claims against the estate is the of $2,549 76, then such estate may declared insolvent. 8.

At fall term, 1868, on motion of appellees, judgment was set aside and a new trial granted, and an appeal was taken to this Court on the order setting aside judgment and granting a new trial, and said appeal was dismissed on the ground that the order setting aside judgment and granting a new trial was not a final judgment. 2d.

On a final settlement by Executors of their Executorship in the Probate Court, a credit for several items consist ing of Confederate notes and bonds, which amount to the nominal sum of $8,118,000, is improperly allowed to reduce the assets in the hands of the Executors, unless it appears that they have already charged themselves with the same items as property of the deceased received by them, or that they have charged themselves with the value ot the property ot the deceased which has been converted into such Confederate funds. legal FARIHER8 STOCK UWNER8 HE Coic Cure so highy recommended T1 igtrj 50 PIECES PRINTS, varions brands, at from to 13 cents per yard, FRENCH 1HERINOS, all woolat from 75 cents to $1 per yard, A ge lot of city-made hand-sewed Ladies and Misses SHOES AND GAITERS, GENTS DOUBLE CALF BOOTS.

Wholesale Grocers. Totoaooo. Agent for the salo of various brands of Virginia Tobacco, at manufacturers prices. The (September Sold Pknlc. The committee appointed by Cotigress to investigate the September gold panic are proceeding with the work, and have had before them Mr.

James (or Jim) Fisk, and Jay Gould, the Erie potentates. Fisk, in his testimony, which is perhaps the spiciest entertainment that has been furnished for some time past, goes very elaborately into the origin and history of the great gold ponic. His testimony differs but little from the statements published in the New York World just after the crash, purporting to come from him. Fisk and Gould, as the whole country know, are the head men of the greatest railway corporation in the United States (if we except the Pacific railway), and Fisk tells us that the necessities that corporation induced them project the great speculation that carried such havock and financial distruc-tion to the speculations in Wall street. He says that the low price of gold kept back grain from the West, and of course the business of their road, over which a vast bulk of western grain reaches New York city, to that extent suffered.

He says that the road was losing money, and he was fearful its condition would become very bad if something did not occur to bring forward western grain. The price of gold, to a great extent, controlled the price of grain, and if the price of gold conld only be ad vane ed, then grain would also advance in price and come forward to the market. To advance gold, was, ia the opinion of Mr. Fisk, the only way to revive the grain trade and the business of his railroad. Fisk gives some interesting information concerning this great corpo-.

ration, and says, among other things, that it employs seventeen or eighteen thousand men, that it has one thousand four hundred miles of road, etc. This speculation, according to his statement, was deliberately planned, and, as he thought, every precaution had been taken to make it successful. The pre liminary condition to success was to ascertain beyond any doubt what the financial policy of the Government would be, and to accomplish this they determined to first soan President Grant, and see what could be got out of him. The President, it will be re- membered went to the Boston Peace Jubilee, and on bis Aay traveled on one of Mu Fisks boats, when anywhere the effort was made to get him to disclose his views and the financial policy of his administration. Grant, it appears favored an early return to specie payments, and Fisk and his crowd advanced all the arguments they could invent to change the Presidents opins ion, but he says they were unsuccess-tul, and thht the President expressed the opinion that then was as good as anytime to prick the bubble.

The efforts to get Grant to agree with them were renewed subsequently, at Long Branch, but with no better success. But another party makes his appearance on the stage as one of the principal actors, and it is no less than the Presidents brother-in-law, Mr. A. R. Corbin, whose acquaintance Gould had formed and as a preliminary step, schemes were at once set on foot to get a treasurer at New York who would go in with them.

This was accomplished when Butterfield wa3 appointed. Corbin assured Fisk and Gould that he would fix everything right with the administration, and operations were commenced by the purchase of two million five hundred thousand dollars in gold, half a million of it being for Mrs. President Grant, and half a million for General Porter, the Presidents Secretary. These statements Fisk makes to the committee very positively, and when he is, if we are not misinformed, under oath. Corbin claimed that everything was understood with the President, and that no government gold would be put upon the market.

Fisk says that Corbin told him that everything wa3 arranged; that he had this stock with Mr. Gould, who held $500,000 for Mrs. Grant, which Lad been sold out, and he had received a check for $25,000, which he had forwarded to Washington. The transactions for the two or three days immediately preceding black Friday and of that day are graphically portrayed by Mr. Fisk, and his evidence on these points is quite entertaining.

There can be no doubt from Mr. Fisks statement that Corbin made an attempt to control the action of the administration on the question selling gold and it is very certain that fie believed that he had succeeded he certainly deceived Fisk and Company, for mainly upon his representations did they go in. The testimony of Gould and Fisk is harmonious in the main particulars, and we have no doubt is true. The Assistant Treasurer at New York, General Butterfield, is implicated, and Gould says that he had bought one hundred thousand on Butter-, fields account. General Porter, the Presidents Secretary was interested, and so was the Presidents wife, that is if these men have spoken truthfully; and as their statements are made under oath, they must be controverted by showing them to be false or a stigma must rest upon the Presidents family and household.

The evidence of these men can not be destroyed by simple denial for the public requre something more. It is the first instance in the history of the United States in which the wife of the Chief Magistrate has been charged with being interested in Wall street gold gambling, and let us hope the sake of decency it may be the last. If Congress would only make the investigation now going on thorough, and search ing and publish all testimony taken, it would make a book whose like has never been before seen in the United States. Bntthey will not do it. They will attempt to whitewash the prominent men who are involved in it, and endeavor make a scape goat of Fisk and Gould.

Fisk and Gould are able to take care of themselves. Are the Grant family equally fortunate charged against a is not 2. as 3. of shquld et sets sum of sum be the et. for on 300 stacks Alabama and cria FLOUR for sale low at MOREY, WATSON 1 UNLAPS, Wholesale Grocers.

Some favor placing the gentleman next to Garret Davis, or Vickers, of Maryland, or Thurman, of Ohio, It is urged that to force Garret Davis or Yickers into such close proximity with the colored Senator would be the perfdc tion of refined cruelty, and might result in the resignation of whichever of those redoubtable democratic champions Revel might be forced upon.
