WokiaaM of the Supreme Court of ludisaa. NOVEMBeFtERM, 1851. aaroeriB roa ms state szxtixxl ar t. boilmaiv. TruiUsgsr t». Webb. Error to the Fountain Circuit Court. This was an action of trespass for digging coal, brought by Webb against Trullinger. Piea not guilty—judg. ment for the plaint,IT. The defendant moved to discharge a juror, before he was sworn, for the reason that on being interrogated, he had disclosed the fact (hat he Wat related to the plainlilf, having married the plaintiff's niece. The Court refused to discharge him. On the trial, the plaintiff showed, by deed, that he had conveyed the land to the defendant, from winch the coal was l iken, but had made a reservation of the right to excavate coal Irom lwo coal banks, situated one on either side of a cieck, Stc. The (tefrudanl then offered to prove that when the deed was executed it was lbe understanding and agreement between the parti.*, that the coal for which this suit was brought was to be the defendants, and that a coal bank wa* understood ro be a visible bank of coal, nnd not ihe entire vein. The Court below refused to hear this testimony. Judge Blackford held, 1. Tiiat the cause of the challenge to the juror was sufficient. “ Affinity or alliance by marriage,” Lord Coke remarks, *• is a principal challenge, and equivalent to consMiigninit*“ As wli«TTt the juror marry the daughter or cousin of the plaintiff.” CokeLitt.

The subscribers to Sartain’s Magazine will receive, with the February number, a highly-finished and beau-
tiful representation of the New C-'pitol at Washington, in vacation, to be discharged from arrest in a civil suit,
tiff. The Circuit Court refused to dismiss the suit. Judgment for the plaintiff below. Judge Blackford held, 1. That ns George H. Cornwell had filed with the justice his written acknowledgment as security for costs on the dav the summons issued, anti that summons required the defendant to answer the plaintiff by bis next friend, George H. Cornwell he may he considered as having been appointed such friend by the justice. 2. That it i* a very technical objection, and one which docs not show the tnmmons was a nullity, to allege that nn agreement in writing to he responsible for costs, is not an agreement of consent to his appointment as prochirn amy. It is at most nn irregularity, which could be waived, and which was waived by the defendant, who appeared in the trial before the justice and made no ob-
jection.
Judgment affirmed, with 5 per cent, damages. Carson rj. Steamboat Talma. Error to the Clark
Circuit Court.
In H4L Carson filed nn affidavit, upon which an attaebment was issued against the Steamboat Talma. It was served upon a person in charge of the Boat, but not an officer. In February, 1*49, a judgment by default was entered against the Boat, in favor of various creditors, who had filed their claims, but the damages in the case of Carson had not been assessed by a jury. In May, 1^49, a bond was executed by Watson and two others, payable to Carson, and approved by the Clerk of the Circuit Court, and the Boat was discharged. At the August term. 1*49, the judgment by default was set aside for good eunse shown. and tbo writ of attachment atiashed * n neeount of the insufficiency of the affidavit.
Judge Blackford held,
1. That the motion to set aside the judgment by default, did not waive all objections to the attachment, because the judgment by default was against the Boat, and when it was discharged, the judgment could have no effect. Alter the discharge, the owners of the Boat were the only defendants, and no judgment, except against them, ronld. afterwards, have been rendered for th® plaintiff: 5 Blaekf. 291. An appearance to a suit may cure a defect in the process, hut there are many motions that can he made before an appearance, and the
motion in this suit is one of that kind.
2. That the giving of the bond, in vacation, for the purpose of having the Boat discharged, was n«>l a waiver of any objection to the attachment: 2 Blaekf. 333; ft Blaekf 594. In England, the giving of a bail-bond,

Halt vs. Warreo, 2 McLean, 332. That it made no diflerabcO ia this suit, that Reynolds waa on the l*oad given op— the graming of the injunction by the Carrofl circuit court, aad was a stockholder and director in the bank, ia whose favor the injunction bad been awarded, because it was uoi shown that the bank hud any agency ia procuring the attachment to issue, and that fact could not be presumed, for tha court might Ua.ro iwoed it as a matter of enurae. and because, too, bad the writ been legal, Reynold* waa as much bound to obey the command of the sheriff as any other stranger. Judgment affirmed. Robertson tt. Thompson. Error to the Jackson Circuit court. This suit was brought against Moore and Robertson, and process served upon Moore in Jackson county and upon Robertson in Clark county. At a subsequent teim Moore demurred to a part and pleaded to a part of the declaration, and a judgment by default was taken against Robertson. The plaintiff then obtained leave of the court to amend his proceedings by striking from the writ and declaration the name of Moore. A jury was called, and assessed damages, bnt this assessment was set aside on motion of the plaintiff, and a new assessment was made. Judgment was then rendered npon it. The cau>es of error assigned are. that the court bad no jurisdiction of the*per*on of the defendant, no process having been served upon him in Jackson county; that the court, after judgment by default, could not permit the plaintiff to amend bis writ and declaration; that it could not set aside the verdict of the jury, and award a venire. . Judge Perkins held, 1. Tiiat so far as appears, the judgment might have legally included Moore also, and as he had been served with process in the county where the suit was brought, the service upon Robertson was legal, under the 27 sec. of the R. S., p. 674. , 2. That such service being legal, the amendments made were authorized by the 98, 99, and 100 sects., p. 634 of the R. S. 3. That this court must presume that good cause was shown for setting aside the first award of damages, and, if so, the court below might set it aside. Judgment affirmed. Crane r». The Slate. Error to the Boone Circuit
Court.
This was an indictment against Crane for keeping a stallion, and letting, &c., within the limits of a town, 8io. The indictment alledges that this was done “ in the public view of the inhabitants of said town.” A motion was made to qnash it, because it did not allege that the plaintiff had not provided an enclosure. Judge Perkins hold, That the averment that the oflence charged was in public view of the inhabitants of the town, sufficiently negatived the fact that do enclosure had been provided. Judgment affirmed. Fowler vs. Smith. Appeal from the St. Joseph Circuit Court. This was an action of debt on a note, the consideration of which was an exclusive rigjit to make, use, and sell, in Laporte county, Harkness’ Patent Grain Rake. The jury gave judgment for the plaintiff; the defence being that the rake was useless. The only question was whether the evidence warranted the finding. The proof showed that the rake was useful in level land when the straw was not too long or too short, and that the plaintiff had told the defendant, at the time of the sale, that the rake would save one-third the labor, and that i boy fourteen years of age could keep up with a
cradier.
Judge Perkins held,
That the questions, whether there was fraud or a warranty and the value of the right sold, were for the jury on the trial, and npon the evidence this court could not. say that the court below erred in refusing to set aside the verdict. Hardesty rs. Smith at this term. 4

Judgment affirmed. Butterfield et al. rs. Beall. Appeal from the Ripley
Circuit Court.
The wives of Butterfield and Bush inherited from their father a certain tract of land situated in Ripley county, and afterwards, together with their husbands, excctited a power of attorney at Nauvoo in Illinois, to Jonathan C. Wright, to sell and convey the same. In the acknowledgement it was omitted to be stated that wives were examined M without the hearing” of their husbands. Wright sold and conveyed the land to Beall, the deed of conveyance describing the parties to it thus, “between Jonathan C. Wright, attorney in fact for OIH Butterfield, Caroline Butterfield his wife, and Richard Bush, and Adeline Bush his wife” &c., “witnesseth that the said Jonathan C. Wright, party of the first part, tec..” and concluding by signing the names in full o** Butterfield and the others, executed by Jonathan C. Wright their attorney in fact. An action of ejectment was subsequently brought by Stephen C. Harding, an attorney at law. on the demise of Bnttertield and the others, and ousted Beall. In 1850, Harding institnted a suit against him for the recovery of mense profits of said land, whilst in his possession. During its pendency, Beall filed the bill in this suit, setting out all the facts, anti praying that the prosecution of the action for mense profits be restrained, and the conveyance of the land perfected. An injunc-
tion was granted.
Judge Perkins held,
1. That by the marriage of Butterfield and Bush, they became possessed of an estate for their lives, in the real property of tbetr wives; that this estate they could respectively convey, 2 Kent. 133; and that an attempt to convey the fee simple, would not render void their conveyance, as to the interest they did possess.

That this decision was correct. A judgment for the plaintiff ia an act too a poo a dcmestic judgment, is not n satisfaction of the judgment sued <>n, lor it is not a payment of it. nor a merger of it.

The first judgment ngaiost Pattoo, not being extinguished by the second, the parties !o it were subject to Urn proceedings to enforce its collection. Judgment affirmed. Henry nr The State Bsak. Appeal from the Dearborn Circuit Court. This wss an action of assumpsit brought by the Bank against Henry (an indorser) and five others, as the maker and indorsers of a promissory note. After the evidence was beard, the plainud obtained leave to strike from the writ and declaration the names of all the defendants except Henry, when, the cause was continued at the cost of the plaintiff. At tbe next terra the Rank obtained a judgment, Tbe notice of protest stated that tbe note ** was this day presented for con-payment in said Branch.” &c. The evidence showed that Vinson was the immediate indorser before Hvnrv; that tbe notice to him had been sent to Wilmington, in Dearborn county, which was from five to seven miles from his residence, when there was a post-office, called Dillsboro, within from one to two miles of his residence, and at which he received his letters. See., and that be had resided where he then did about six years. On tbe other hand it was proved that when he commenced endorsing he lived at Wilmington, had never informed the Bank of his change of residence, which, during the 1st six years, had always sent notices of protest, of which there were many, to him at Wilmington, Sic. It was also shown that the Bank was in the habit of bfeving its notary public send notices to all the indorsers, not, however, for their accommodation, but its own security. Judge Perkins held, 1. That tbe Court below committed no error in allowing the amendment to tbe writ and declaration. Smith’s R. 5. 2. That as there is no taxation of the costs, either as to the continuance or at the final judgment, on record, the Court cannot say whether any injury has been committed to the defendant below, by the judgment against him for costs. 3. That as the not'ee stated that the note was presented nn the day. Sic., “ in sail Bank,” it will be presumed that it Sras presented within banking hours and before the closing of the Bank. Story on Bills, sect 390, and note. Smith’s Mercantile L. p. 247, and
note.
4. That by law, the holder of a note has a right to notify all the indorsers and hold all of them, or anv part of them, responsible to him, and if he notifies all and sues but one, the benefit of such notice ennres to that Or but one may be notified, and that one must secure the liability of prior indorsers to himself, by giving notice. Chitty on Bills p. 530, 8th editon. Story on
Bills, sect. 381.
5. That a Bank is bound by a custom it has established in reference to such matters as are permitted by the law. as if a Bank should allow four days of grace instead of three. 18 Maine R. 99; but as in this case, if it has been accustomed to give notice to all indorsers, it is not thereby precluded from giving notice to but one, for that would be, in fact, abrogating a part of the law
itself.
6. That it is not necessary, under our present Constitution, to determine upon the validity of the notice given to Vinson, for by the questions already determined, it is shown that Henry was not discharged by the act of the
Bank.
Judgment affirmed. „ Williams, Executor, Sic. r*. Williams. Error to the Morgan Circuit Court. This was an action of assumpsit by John R. Williams agains William Williams, executor of William Williams. deceased, for a certain sum due him from the deceased. The pleas were non-assumpsit by the decedent, and non-assumpsit within six years. Replication to the last plea that the decedent, in his life time, concealed the cause of action, &c. Tbe (acts, as stated by a witness, were that the deceased had purchased land of John R. Williams, that as part payment thereof he was to pay a certain safe note siren by said John, when he should sell the land; that he had sold tiie land, and that he had refused to give a letter to said John, and had persuaded the witness not to take one, both of which were from the payee of the note, and were written to inform John R. Williams that the note was unpaid. Upon this and other evidence, the Conrt below rendered judgment for the plaintiff below. Judge Perkins held, k 1. That the evidence showing that the re-sale of the land was in 1841, the eause of action, under the contract, accrued in that year, being more than six years before the commencement of this suit. - 2. That the only matter concealed or attempted to bo concealed, was the non-payment ol the note, and not the sale of the land, and such non-payment was not the cause of action. Judgment reversed.

This was an action of assumpsit on a hill of exchange drawn by T. F Cheeke, at Lawrencelnirgh, on E. C. Chcekc at Cincinnati, endorsed to Pane, by him to the State Bank, and by it sent to the LaLjette Bank at Cincinnati for collection. It was protested, and the notary. through the post office, immediately sent to the Cashier of the Branch of the State Bank at Lawrenceburgh, a letter containing notices of tbe protest, addr eased severally to the drawer and endorsers. Oo the same day it was received, tbe notice to Pate was mailed to him. Jndgment was given for the plaintiff below. The only point raised was as to the snfficiency of the notice. The plaintiff in error contended that notice should have been given him directly by the notary, aad that proof should have been made that the notice bad liem deposited ia tbe post offica al Cincinnati in time to
go by the next mail. Judge Smith held,
That the course taken by the notary was in accordance with the practice sanctioned by the Supreme Court of Ohio—Ohio R., 54. The residence of the last endorser is the only one thnt is supposed to be known to tbe holder, nnd if all are notified through such endorser, they Itecome liable. The fact that the bill waa sent hy the Sia’e Bank to tbe Lafayette Bank, is sufficient to wntrant the notices being forwarded to it: and the cashier, haying received them oa the day after tiie protest, i* proof that they were mailed nt Cincinnati in due time.

ing, the rightful possession of said land is in Beall, the mean profits belong to him, and be bad a defence at law
to the ejectment salt. i 3. That on acconnt of the defect in the acknowledge
ment, the power of attorney is void as to the wives, but being sufficient as to the husbands, it is good as to
them.
4. That although the deed is very inartificially drawn, it is held (not however without a good deal of hesitation) that it is sufficient to the extent ol power legally conveyed to Wright. Story on Agency, Sect. 147 et

5. That as to the possession of the land, Beall’s remedy is at law; and that there has been no adjudication below npon the question of his right to a decree perfecting the deed as against tbe female defendants in the bill.
Decree reversed.

ded, the judgment is reversed.
Carter vs. Thomas. Error to the Cass Circuit Court. Carter as one of the administrators of John Tipton’s estate, accepted an order on former administrators of the same estate. Tbe acceptance was as follows, “accepted to be paid when funds are received.” Tbe declaration contained • special and common counts. Tbe defendant filed the general issue and special pleas, but the latter were held bad on general demurrer. Judgment was rendered against the defendant de bonis pro-
priis.
Judge Perkins held,
1. That the common counts were sufficient to support tbe judgment, if tbe special count was bad, and the evi-
dence was offered nnder all.
2. That as the defences set up were all admissible under the general issue, the defendant sustained no injury by the deeison on the demurrer to bis special pleas3. That the judgment was necessarily against the defendant de bonis proprxit, became be was declared against in bis individual capacity. It is laid down that "if an exeenter or administrator promises in writing that in consideration cf having assets be will pay a partieniar debt of the testate* or intestate, he may to seed oa his promise in his individual capacity, and the judgment against him will be de hunt propria, 2 Williams on Ex. 1267.

Presentation of Governor Kossnth to the Sen* ate of the United States. This imposing ceremony in honor of the great Hungarian, and in testimony of the approval by our govern. | ment of the cause of liberty in Europe, which he represents. took place yesterday in the Senate Chamber at one o’clock. The proceeding, though august in its sig- j nificance, was unostentatious in its character. As no similar presentation to either House of Congress has occurred, except in the case of General Lafayette, we deem it proper to uote the details of the proceeding with exactness. At the appointed hour, the«6enate, on the suggestion of its President, suspended its usual business. Governor Kossuth, in his official costume, and with his swurd at his side, appeared at the main entrance, preceded by two memhejs of the committee of intrduetion, (General Shields and Mr. Seward,) and followed by the third mem her, (General Cass,) and advanced in this order till he stood in the center of the Senate Chamber. Gen. Shields, the chairman of the committee, then said: “Mr. Pkisident: We have the honor to announce to you Louis Kossuth, and to introduce him to the Senate of the United States.” The President of the Senate then rose and said: "Louis Kossuth, I welcome you to tbe Senate of the United Plates. The committee will conduct yon to the seat which I have caused to be prepared for yon.” Gov. Kossuth bowed in acknowledgment of this public reception, rnd, being conducted by Gen. Shields and Mr. Seward to a seat immediately in front of the Secretary's table, took his seat, with Gen. Shields on his right hand, and Mr. Seward and Gen. Cass on the left Mr. Mangnm then rose and said: * " For tbe purpose of affording to the members of this body an opportunity to pay their respects to our illustrious guest. I move that we do now adjourn.” The motion was carried, and the Senate adjourned. The President of tbe Senate and senators then left their seats, and, as they approached Governor Kossnth, were severally presented to him by the members of the committee. The entire front and side galleries of the Chamber were completely filled by the ladies, who bad assembled to witness the ceremony. Many ladies found places on the floor of the Senate, tbe rule having been suspended with a view to their admission there. The reporters’ gallery was assigned to gentlemen, and was also crowded. There was no applaase—tbe spectators apparently refraining from any such demonstration as unsoited to tbe occasion and tbe scene.—Union.
