When court met Et 3 o'clock yeEterday afternoon the Jury in the Powell-Courad caae was dtscha iped, again haring declared Its Inability to ever agree. The Lynch-Martin matter was then re sumed by Mr. Lore. After making a few preliminary remarks he took up and con sidered the affidavits which were presented to Impeach the sworn statement of Thomaa Toy. All the affidavits stated that Toy was not at the polls during the entrle day, but did not deny he was present at the voting place. One of the affldavlta, that of Henry Dupont, waa qualified by thé statement that Toy was away f rom the window of the polls sometime. _ -, There was no denying of the assertion that 30 Illegal votes were cast at the polls election day. Positive evidence of course always outweighed mere licresay. The affidavits of the respondent were criticised as not meeting the affidavit of the relator, and the weak points In them shown up. The assertion of Toy that 30 illegal votes had been cast for Marlin showed that there waa a defect in his title. He agreed with Mr. Bradford that the burdt'if'M proof did rest with Mr. Martin to show that he waa legally elected. When, in the pleading Martin should show that he had a legal title, *ben the burden of proof would come hack to the relator. There were many discrepencies In the various counter affidavits, some de daring one thing and others another. It was not proved that Thomas Toy's affidavit was not conclusive. Mr. Higgins thought the exhaustive char actor of his colleague's argument made his He reviewed the Tarn» A & 1 DU task comparatively easy, remarks ot the other speakers, and Wanted to know how Thomas Toy knew that 30 ille -.„i K â ii 0 *. were cast, aud cast for James Tin*! The rule as'ked lor could not lot Wanted because Toy^ '» affidavit was insum WJftJSRSÄiur - Av the conclusion ot the argument the Chief J usticc remarked that the case was a very u#n cu lt one from ordinary applications for a.rtk*. There was a reason why the matter atauld be well examined into, and he proposed with the approval of counsel to take some tim« to do so. The whole sub ject would be taken into consideration aud judgment delivered at the first day's meet ing of the Court of Appeals, qn the first day of January uext, in Dover. Alter consider able discussion tt was mutually agreed that the second day The court the case should come up of the uext term, Feb. 7, 1583. requested the counsel on both aides to pre sent their briefs and citations of authorities JAMES n. A A IlON AGAIN. By this time all the judges were evidently very anxious to leave the bench and adjourn. The Chief Justice did so, and after a little quibbling the matter of dissolving the foreign attachment issued against the pro perty of James H. Aaron was again taken up. Mr. Nields moved to have the attachment dissolved, but counsel on the other side ob jected, and they were permitted to call the stand fteujumin II. Money, a brother of James II. Aaron's. The witness was ques tioned as to Aaron's condition before disappeared, and also os to the latter's busi ness affairs. All matters of record were he did not appear to be sick; be went to knew where he was, to his wife ; witness . hi Chicago; no one ami he never wrote he at last wrote to ua fellows: "I want you to eend me money by po.t office order, f50, Immediately, as - want to come home to attend tobuainess, iny absence is being mterepreaented. ueaa went on to Chicago and found Aaron In the poet office; went there because he thought lie would expect a letter, and I did not write; Aaron first stopped at 35 West Washington btreet, Chicago; I lived with his w ile, who Is my slater, and during hie ab pported her ami her children, who would otherwise have starved; did not notice anything unusual iu Aaron's appear mice when he was iu Chicago; Aaron lived under an aiibumcd name In Chicago. Mr. NIclda banded Money a note of for $175 and asked if he didn't owe that to Aaron. He said yea, hut that Aaron owed him $300. The reply caused a laugh at Mr. Nielli's expense. The WjtneSs then pro duced a note of his own for $300 payable to Aaron, which he saiil was what Aaron owed him. The laugh was then the other way, but the witness explained that iie liad had a transaction with Aaron about some horses und had never received his uion»y. The court at last agreed to dissolve the attachment with costs, it not having been proved that Aaron liud chauged his resi dence. Btiuce dence. A DECISION GRANTED. A decision was given by the court in . Seidell, Hast case of Henry E. Shimp lugs & Co., argued at the last term ol Superior Court. The claim was $363.23 three tarloads of charcoal supplied to feudants' order ; the defense pleaded set aud recoupment, the whole of the order not having been executed and the defendants, us they claimed, being put to ad expeuse in supplying . Plaintiff deb ur red to . a ditional deficiency pica aud the court sustained the demurrer, holding that the. special plea w as bud, but that it could be given in evidence under general issue. The decision establishes point that when an order is only partly executed the amount of the executed por tion may be sued for while the defendant may plead the damages caused by nou-de Uvery of the remainder Instead ol having to bring a counter actiou for breach of con tract as heretofore. Charles B. Lore, Esq., represented the plaintiff and Anthony Hig gins, Esq., the defendant. Court adjourned lute in the afternoon to the February term. ! h( the the NEW LIQUOR BALIFF.

Last night between the acts in "The Lace Handkerchief, a deputy Queen's sheriff walked up to Tracy Titos, manager of the company, as he came off the stage, and said: "I have a capias for you, Mr. Titus." "All right," was the cool remark of the young manager, "I'll go with you in a minute. Then the two walked quietly down to the Clayton House, where the matter was fully explained. The whole thing was done so quietly that very few people, outside of the Initmate friends of Mr. Titus, knew aught oi what had taken place. The capias on which Mr. Titus wss arrested waa lsaucd ou the oath of William Green, formerly an Iron dealer of this city, through II. C. Turner, Esq., his counsel, aud is for a debt of over $700, including ' terest, against Alice Oates' Company, wli was advanced the troupe about seven years ugo. while performing here.

The Mawarean of to-day says : The opin ion as expressed throughout the State, both by Individuals and the press, concerning the action of Governor Hull In reprieving Ilar rlgan, convicted of the mûrier of Dennis The additional THE Shea, is commendatory. _ evidence ofTered in beball of Harrigan was of so mitigating a character that it could not have been expected that the Governor would not have done otherwise than he did. me causea of the killing of Shea were of an ag gravating nature. No man that has any re spect for himself can quietly alt by and see his home broken up, the love of hla wire eatranged from him, hla peace and happineaa destroyed and not resent it, and the manner which It was resented by Jiarrlgan In who caused bis A 'speech soon good a tain The ou 000 the is of In taking the life of the man troubles seems, under all circumstances to be justifiable. _ . u • Despite the fact that leading Republicans of the Dover Sentinel '« own faction recom mended Handgun's respite that paper to-day remarks with a growl : "Governor Hall has respited Harrigan again for 12 moEtbs. This carries him over to Governor-elect Btockley's term, aud of course secures Uar rigan from ever betiig''lmffff, as Governor Stocklay will hardly want to be his predecessor's executioner. * The list of Democratic criminals who have escape^ because of their politics is a long one, while any Republican who happens to be so unfortunate as to get in the meshes oi the law receives its penalty not only "swift, Bure and high," but "speedy" also. Gov ernor Cochran showed what might be ex pected from them, when he refused to grant two unfortunate negroes a respite from death for a lew weeks." The Middletown Transcript says: miali Harrigan, who fatally 6liot Dennis Shea, his wife's cousin, near Hockessin. on September 19,1881, and who was to have been hanged to-day, was on Wednesday re spited by Governor Hall until December 14, 1883. The Governor's action in this case will be approved by a very large majority of those who have given any thought to Har rigan's crime and the peculiar circumstances under which it was committed." Jere City Council Lut Nlglit. At City Council's adjourned meeting last night President Conrad presided. Mr. Gar rett moved that the Opening Streets Com mittee be authorized to grade Market street from Twenty-third to the city line.
