Promptly at 10 o'clock bis Honor Judge
Mitchell took his seat to continue the habeas

witnesses examined on Thursday last were
examined ugsin to-day, and I am ?ble to
correct some trivial errors that occurred in

Or J. *T. Mott did hear II. C.Kl'iott order
Ned to leave bis house twice, but did not
hear Neal say he would not go.
H.V.Elliott testified that Neal behaved
badly at the dinner-table on the day of the
homicide ; that he used profane and unbe
coming language. T .
James Kouehe, engineer on the A., i . ?

II C Elliott immediately walked into tin
office*, followed by prisoner. In a very *>hort

Warwick Rcid (colored) testified that he
came from Richmond, Va? to this place last
\u,ru*t ; that he was engaged for some time
In uie tobaeco business and aUerwards w^s
pmnloved as a waiter m the St. Chants,
that he was present waiting on the dinner
table on the day of the homicide. Did not
hear deceased use any profane, vulgar, or
SoiKT language. That three (lays before
deceased started to Virginia he >aw him
have a dirk-knife in a sheath. Witness put
the kuife in deceased's trunk. After tbe hom
icide he opened the trunk and louud tbe
kuife just as be had placed It. Before wit

quested the witness to look alter bis sou.

in regard to tbe character of the prisoner.
Two witnesses thought he bad injured his
character by a former transaction, the
others thought his character was good.
\fter tbe evidence hud been ^ cry fully
commented on by counsel, Judge Mitchell
decided to reverse bis former opinion, and
ordered the prisoner to jail to await his trial
at the June tern, of the Superior Court.

Letter from Monlsoinory County.
Coristiansburo, Va., February 26', 1874.
This has beeu court-week with us, and
therefore notable in our calendar. True; iu
decd, county court has ceased to be what it
was in point of dignity and importance ; but
the people cannot easily get over the habit of
"going to town" on court-day once a
month. Tbe weather this time was so bad
that the turn-out was not as large as usual.
It was arrand-jury term, and a large number
of indie ments were made? twenty-three, 1
believe, in all. The negroes figure princi
pally in the list, as usual, for all sorts of
offences from tbrowingstones up to shooting
with intent to kill. Gus. Goff, the nejaxo who
recently shot Dr. J. P. Hammet, "of this
place, in an altercation which took place be
tween them, was indicted. Dr. Hammet's
wound proved a slight oue, and he Is now
out and well. As an item which will helpout
the Dispatch in its argument for a return to a
CONSTITUTIONAL C0T7NTV-C0URT
system, 1 learn that tbe list of criminal cases
for the next circuit court here is sufficient
to occupy aM the time of the court, to the ex
clusion of all" other business.
It is the general testimony of
FARMERS
from all pirts of the county that wheat
never looked better here. The winter has
been a remarkably mild one and very favora
ble to its growth. The season has been fine
r.l>o for wiuter ploughing, and a great deal
has been done in preparation for oats and
corn. At present the whole face of the
country is covered with snow. Yesterday
and the day before we had the heaviest snow
full of the season, accompanied by some
sleet. As tbe ground is warm and not in
condition to hold it long, we have the pro
mise of a Oeligbtlul slush for some days.
Business is still very dull and monev
scarce, but as an evidence of both money and
enterprise we note the establishment in our
town of a large tannery by a couipan}* of our
own citizens.

Coal from the mines in this vicinity has
been brought into the village, and upon
trial has proven a very fair speeimer. The
prospect is improving; and, doubtless, as the
weather opens, the mine will be worked
more extensively.

The ceremonies connected with the forma
tion of a Grand Coram indery of Knights
Templar for West Virginia were had yester
day in this city, and attracted almost uni
versal attention. Notwithstanding the con
tinuous snow-storm, the streets were
thronged with citizens to see the parade of
Knights and to hear tbe splendid music dis
coursed by three brass bands that accompa
nied tbe procession.
A special conclave of the Grand Encamp
ment of the Unitrd States was held, Sir James
H. Hopkins presiding, arid tbe Grand Com
mandery of West Virginia was regularly
coustituted and proclaimed. Tbe following
named Knights, who had been previously
elected at a convention composed of the
qualified representatives of the several subor
dinate Commanderies in the State, were then
feeverally installed: Sir O. S. Long, grand
commander; Sir R. G. Lyle, grand gene
ralissimo; Sir (i. W. Pat ton, grand captain
general; Sir Th >mas II. Logan, grand prel
ate; Sir Alexander Parks, Jr., senior grand
warden ; Sir C. Y. Lucas, junior grand ward
en ; Sir L H. Williams, grand treasurer ; Sir
M. A. Chandler, grand recorder ; Sir A. L.
Nye, grand standard-bearer; Sir Henry
Iieed, grand sword-bearer; Sir George Da
vis, grand warder; Sir Hugh Sterling, grand
captain of the guard.
After tbe transaction of the necessary busi
ness for setting the new Grand Commandery
in motion, that body was cioicd, appointing
i's next meeting in "the city of Wheeling on
tbe Friday succeeding the second Tuesday
iu November, 1874.
the banquet.
Al 7 o'clock tbe Sir Knights with a num
ber of their invited lady-lriends assembled
at the MeLure House, and shortly afterwards
sat down to an elegant suppe'r. A great
many speeches were made in response to
toasts, and the following letters were read
wnen the toast to the Grand Commandery of j
Virginia was drunk:

Sir Knigbt,? Your courteous favor of the,
10th, inviting me to be present at the cere
mouy of constituting tbe new Grand Com

of West Virginia, has just been received.
Should circumstances permit, it will afford
me much gratiticition to attend on so inter
esting an occasion, and to accept tbe hospi
tality of Wheeling Commandery, No. 1, so
politely tendered. As the nature of my en
gagements are sueb as to render it uncertain
whether I can leave this city at tbe time de
signated, I assure you that even in thai event
1 shall be present in spirit, and my warmest
aepiraions will bid you godspeed in tbe
new carw that will then be opened to you.
I am fraok to confess, however, that these
sentiments are - somewhat tinged with'
