The Dyer-Lecompton Charter for
Chicago.
We call particular attention to ft synopsis,
And examination in another part of this paper,
of Tom Dyer's charter for the city of Chicago,
shortly to come bufure the Legislature, and to
be whipped through that body if there are
whippers enough to do it.
War between Jttisbouri and Kansas.
A bill was reported in the Missouri Legisla
ture yesterday, authorizing the Governor to
raise and equip volunteers to repel an alleged
invasion ot the Western frontier from Kansas,
and appropriating $50,000 lor that purpose. We
fancy all parties will feel foolish when the vol
unteers get home, except those who pocket the
fSO,uOO; and it is not a violent presumption
that this weather will act detrimentally to the
military ardor set forth by tbe Missouri legisla
tors.
Ihe Streets of Chicago.
Editors Pejus axd Teibcki: 1 have read
with attention what .yon have recently said on
the subject of grading and paving, and fully en
dorse jour condemnation of the Joliet cobbles
for street paving. Tpe sooner their use is discon
tinued, the better for property holders and the
public. There is au excellent substitute which
can be adopted—.Nicholson block pavement, pe
culiarly adapted to our streets. The rapid ad
vances now being made to bring onr streets np
to grade, when completed, with the system of
surtace and sub-drainage, and with the beauti
ful pavement now so liberally adopted on Wells,
Clark and Washington streets (we mean the* j
" Nicholson pavement"), no city in tbe country ■
will be more admired lor its beauty, neatness
and bealthfulnees, than will ocr good city of |
Chicago. Tbe beautiful structures for business ]
and for private residences, constructed in a j
most liberal and costly manner, either of iron
or tbe delicately tinted stone of our own State,
rivoling in its beauty tbe richest marbles of
other States, give a tone to the surprise and
pleasure so generally felt and expressed by all j
intelligent visitors. |-
lt is much to be hoped that the pavement t
abore named will hereafter be put upon all our ''
streets, when they shall be brought to tbe fixed (
grade. That pavement was first laid down in
this city upon Wells street, near the bridge,
more than two ye*rs sgo. It has been exposed
to tbe heavy Led constant trovtl of that great
thorougLfure.and yet it appears scarcely changed
on its turface. Us noiseless quiet attracts the ®
attention and approving remarks of pedestrian! c
and those travellers who are subjected to the jolt- P
ing and noisy pavement in Byrne of ojr other
street*. One of the excellences of the Nicholson
pavement, is its resistance cf frost, thereby C(
adding security to the water pipes beneath, j,
through a cold winter, and of affording facilities g
for opening streets in frosty seasons, should
there be occasion to do so. Jt is a fact, that
during tbe severe frost in February, abouttbree hi
ycara «;o, it became necessary to repair the
water pipe* of certain buildings on two adjacent di
strceLs in Boston, one of which (State street) C(
was paved with etoi.e, the other (Exchange ,0
street) was paved with wood. In order to C(
make the repairs, the streets must be opened
It required several men three or foGFdays to
thawtiud drill through the atone and frosty
earth, which wis four feet deep in Slate street»
whilst at the same time only two men,
three hours, to do the job in the next street C 1
which was covered by the wood pavement. at
Mr. Nicholson has recently beeu in this city,
- and having attentively observed tbe careful lay
ing of his pavement, just put upon Washington
atreft, informs us that the material used, and !"
tha substantial composition cf our puvement has
been cquullcd but by u sjui.ll portion of that °°
which bus been put do>vn in Boston. lie states
that none ot 1113 pavement in Boston has been
removed by reason of rotten wood, that only a
small per conUge of the wood pavement in that C 0
city has as yet received repairs, that nearly all
of tuid pt-.vement wan made from cheap soft
spruce tiuibtr, or of the cheapest kind of lira- i ia
wood (akeu from the yardi of railroad corpora- fyj
lions. These kinds of cheap and soft wooi were Sh
osed as experiments. A part of Chuuncey street U c
and a.part of Exchange street, in that city, are to
paved with hard wood, aud are now in as per- he:
feet order as any pavement put down in this tcj.
city, ihe pavement oa Exchange street is of mi
rock maple, Burnetiitd, (prepared with a solu
tion of the chloride of zinc). The paving on
Ctuuncey a;rect id divided iutj portions con
sisting of chestnut, while ouk and spruce. Tbe ,
epruce wood is found to broom up after a lew
years and lubes its surface for travel
Hard woods will resist brooming for manv
years. ' P°
The refci'dents on many streets in Boston are [ KI
so much in favor of the N icholsnn pavement that .
they propose paying a pan of its cost if tbe city
will pave with that instead of stone. The stone ' UU
pavement on ikxebange street was removed on
the petition of abutters, and the Nicbolton pave
ment substituted therefor, and uttbeirsole cost.
As we have übundance ot hard and solt timber,
und no other plentiful und good materials for jj
paving, we trust our enligbieced'citizens will am
urge that which experience presents to us as CVt ,
the most durable and agreeable for the quiet and
clualuiuess of our good city.

As L'hitioatcd Scamp.—A man giring hii
name as Charles Brown, but whose real name is
presumtd to be Charles Boot, was brought be
lore Justice Atken, at tbe Armory, yesterday
morning, on a geoeral of vagrancy. na j
Facts, however, were elicited on the examina
tion, which proved him to be as unmitigated a
scamp as ever lived in fear of the halter. It C
was proven by three little girls and two little ?
boys, ranging from the ages of Bto 12 years,
that Root was in the habit of meeting them at 80, C
different place*, and endeavoring by promises
of money, confcciionery, etc., to induce the girls and
to accompany him to lumberyards, untenanted tow
houses, and other like places, for tbe vilest ol eD
purposes, and that he bad at various times given
boys money and other articles, to bring girls to and
him at such places. These evil ways be baa ia 1
been practising for some time, until finally tbe BOD
police oflicers got on bis track and arrested him. ion!
He was fined SIOO, which he has got to pay at
stone cutting for abont six months. He de- nan
serves a severer punishment.
Arrest tor Constructive Larcent.—Caspar is?
Koeder was arrested on Thursday and brought the
before Justice Aikin, at the Armory, for con- for .
structive larceny, in snatching valuable papers, jjill
from the hands of Almon Calkins, of Janes* the
ville, Wisconsin, with the intent to retain or dul J
destroy them. From the evidence given, it
appears that Koeper bought fonr lots of ground and
in the city of Janesville.of Calkins, giving him It*
a written agreement to pay for them at a cer
tain time. The time for payment of either a writ
part or the whole of tbe purchase money having P&Q
arrived, Calkins called on Koeper in this city
for the amount. Koeper stated that he had not
got tbe money, but woald transfer to Calkins 17 the
wagons, at $25 each, in 'payment. This was *^ Qe
agreed to by C., and a bitl of sale was made oat
and given to him. When he called for the wag- title
ons, Koeper declined to fulfil his bill of sale* l. ,rw
and finally offered Calkins one wsgon to be en- title
tirely released from bis operation with hiA. sale
This was agreed upon, and Koeper put together
the wagon and then demanded the bill of sale |f o „
and agreement before he would deliver th® self
wagon; and while tbe two were parleying be
violently snatched the papers from tbe hands of poj,
Calkins, tearing them in two in the operation, Sou
and then refused w deliver tbe wagon. Forthis lu K
he was arrested and held to baU ia SSOO to an-
swer before the Recorder's Court Wai

l E. A. Webber— A Cohrbction.—A paragraph '
i in our columns yesterday, is much regretted by I
us, inasmuch, as it did gross injustice to a city '
otiicer and resident of the West Division. What- [
ever of personal "malice" the item contained 1
' had no origin in our office, or with any of our i
assistants, directly concerned with its insertion \
Tbe information, which we are convinced is t
urjust and without foundation in fact, was in- I
serted without the cognizince or authority of '
either of the responsible editors. *=
We have the beßt of evidence that Mr. E. A. i
Webber has not "abtcondtd," and in retracting 1
tbe paragraph, which could scarcely be more re- 8
gretted, even by him than by ourselves, we give f
him the benefit of bis own disavowal in tLe u
Journal of yesterday: k
Messrs. EDiTORs-tff/jfc/-Will you do me h
the justice to contradict a malicious statement b
which appears iu the Prut and Tribune of Jan- ?

that I have absconded, leaving tbu pronertr n

paid me anything, to apply on their assessment I
lor the improvement of that street, minus T
1 have not left the city, nor do I intend to, but *
Ido intend to hold the editors ol the Pnn and h
inbuilt responsible for this malicious slander, h

LAW INTELLIGENCE. h e
Important Decision in Chancery— I The Law JJj
in lUoaro to Tax Titles.—An important chan- pai
eery casa, involving principles of great interest
to landholders in this State, was decided by the
Circuit Court iu this County, a few days since, the
Tbe decision invalidates a large number of tax
titles now existing iu this city and Slate, and in wei
which apparently all the forms of law have been
complied with, on account of errors in the origi- aft<
nal assessment.. Tbe case was Bernard Hansen ? ea
and Frederick Jensch re. George T. Cline tt 4L
The complainants filed a bill in chancery to have ha?
a tax sale annulled, and to restrain tbe Sheriff ter
from making a deed of the lots which had been
so.d to the tax purchaser upon the certificate of mil
sale. moi
Tbe bill stated that the complainants were, we
and bad been since ISM, residents in the north to

Jensch, in January, 1653, bought of one Hillman wc
the east half of lot 120 in Bronson's addition to onl
Chicago, received a deed thereof from Uillman, a^°
and in April following recorded the same ; that s ' Je
in 1553 Jensch sold one-half of said lot to Han
son, who at once recorded his deed, and resided tho
upon tbe lot until the tiling of tbe bill; that the
land was assessed to Uillman for State and 5u S
county taxes in 1553, and was assessed in his the
same, for the tuxes for which the sale in ques- him
tion was made in the year 1554, notwithstanding J" tru
the change of ownership of the land and the re- J am
cording of the deed to Jensch and Hanson in mcc
1853; that the land was sold June 11, 1555, for P? e »
the taxes 0f1554, to the defendant, Geo. T. Cline, - T n
for $1.03. Tbe bill charged that the assessment,
under these circumstances, in the name of
Ilillnun, after he had ceased to be the owner of
the land, and ufler the deeds of transfer had been
duly recorded, was illegal, and that the sale based „
npon it was also illegal; that the time for redeem- , ,
ing trom said tax saie expired January 11,1857 ; 2™
and that frum about ten months after the sale, in
18*5, to tbe filing of the bill, the lots had been neT<
fcubdivided and occupied by a number of residents;
and that no notice of the sale and redemption, in
writing or printed, had been given to the occu- .
pants ; that Qillmon, in whose name the lot nad
assessed, lived in the county until the time of the 'L ai
redemption expired, but that no notice had ever
been given to him that the land was sold, and of c
the time when the right of redemption expired. Jr 1 *
Tne bill also charged that, grauting the aiisc-s- V 1?
ment and sale to be regular, yet the purchaser not £ IT
having civen the notices required before being en- 11
titled to a deed from the suerlff, within the time . *
prescribed by law, be not only had no right to a J am
deed, but it impossible that be ever could en- loar
title himself to a deed of the land ; that the tax
sale was an encumbrance on the title to tbe land, ro * c
and it prayed for an injunction to prevent the
pberiff trom making a deed, to have thst injunc- *' lDI
tion declared perpetual, and to have the sale iu
self aunulled on the grounds above mentioned. he n
Toe bitl was taken for confe&ed, referred to the him

the principle of law, which, he held, should gov-

the defence, in which he indicated their proposed
position, that the offence was that of manslangh

was of the nature of a misdemeanor simply, and
that tbe death was not the necessary result of

Hurd, I am willing to give myself up to yon or
any of the neighbors;" 1 jnst then took out my
• tobacco box; be asked for a chew, and I gave it
to him; he was dressed in shirt and overalls •
| had the corn-cuttei»still with him; two other
men started to come to us; he raised tbe corn
• cutter, and told them to mind their own busi
j cess; I told them they better go back; went
t with him to Mr. Frazer's, and thence to Mr.
Crawford's, who is a magistrate; the officer,
, City Marshal Rehm, came for Finn that evening 1
t about 11 o'clock; when we went to Mr. Craw- '
ford she was at work beside the road on the i
way to Mr. C.'s house; left Finn with the Craw.

my bouse, when the Marshal found him; while '
1 1 was ffone Vial was taken to my house; I found <
him there on the bed; he laid there till be died, >

j Samuel Vial, worn-Live at Lyons; am bro
ther of Nathaniel Vial; last saw him on Monday J
s before tbe assault; he came to this region in (
1534; be had two tits of sickness, but his general
} health was good. (Witness described tbe bca- '
tion and nature of injuries received by deceased
which will be given in the medical testimony.)
He died on the ICth day of June; I was with (
' him often; saw him every day, but did not stay 1
[ with him; be never left his bed after the injury.
1 Kobtrt Vial, sworn:— Am a brother of >'a- *
r tbanisl Vial; reside at Lyons; have lived in •
this county twenty-four years; he lived with
t me; he left the house on June 2d with Pierre to c
go to Chicago ;|next saw hino|at Mr. Hurd's, on !
' plank road at 11 that night; mere was a wound !
on bis left leg at the knee, two wounds on his .
j bands, one between the fingers, and one splitting
p the nail of finger; there was a cut on his arm; t
1 Dr. tox was there when I got there; Dr. Max I
" Myers and another physician came there soon I
after ; was with my brother most all the time !
till he died; he did not leave his bed till he ♦
! died; was almost unable to move; his health on
. the morning be left was apparently good,
i Dr. X. Fox, sworn .-—Reside at Lyons; r
t have lived there since last spring; lived near «
Burch Hill for seven years; am a practicing v
( physician; have been bo for eight years; knew
Nathsniel Vial for Are years; visited him
on different occasions; last called to him at Mr.
Hurd's on plonk road; he wm on a bed in the sec- J
t ond story; he said he was hart, did not know how ii
much; there were two cuts on the head, tbe larg- *
est an inch and quarter long, cutt.ng though tbe
scalp; the other was less; they were made with
some sharp instrument; on the hand there were
three or tour cuts; on tbe left lej there was a cut
trausveiscly across the large bone, about 2 inches
below the knee, and about ihree-tonrths or an inch *
in depth; a three cornered-piece of the large bone li
was chipped out, and the cavity of the knee joint o
laid open; regarded the injury* on ibe knt*e us
serious; au injury of the knee joint when tbe
cavity i* laid ci>en, is usually a serious thing to
treat, and iu several ways might involve the life o
ol the patient—by tuppuration arising from ex- a
cessive inflammation, or the severe constitutional a
symptoms t,ui>erveniug might endager life, or 1
niurtificatiou might result from inflammation; I
regarded the wound as a serious one: Dr. Max. a
Myers was called, aud I consulted with him; at
tended Vial until his death, which iu my opinion
resulted from the effects of tbe injuries to the
kneejoint.
Crosse-kzimintd by Jfr. Harris - Have been a 1
practioner 8 years; am 27 years of see , grade
uated ot Castletou Medical College, Vermont; h
first practiced in Woshington County, >\ V.; ««
then came to this region; have occasion in my a
practice to attend various suraical cases, such
as are incident to country practcs; have per
formed amputation ; the country aoout that vi- \
cmity is well settled; I studied four years;
was in tbe Vermont State Hospital; reached
Vial about two bona after the iojury; about six
or seven of tbe other physicians got there later;
tbe wounds on the head were not serious; those c '
on the hand were slight; aided by Dr. Max
Myerp, we proceeded to remove tbe detached
pieces of bone, ond place tbe limb in oscom'ort-
oble a position as possible ; Dr. Max Myers has
the piece; it was triangular, abant an inch
across in its greatest length; its upper part, Ci
next to the Ijoint waa tbe thickest; it had been *
separated trom the bone, and the liga- u
ment had contracted, drawing it up
from its place; think only a small J
P* r t of the piece was a part of the joint; i
think it was the longest across tbe middle of the Z.
piece of bone; the wound was square across the ?
tibia ; the applications were cooling, simply to V,
subdue inflammation; tirst osed only cold water ♦
with the addition of sngar of lead; it was nsed
until the second day; the dressing over the op
e'tore was put on next morning; Drs. Isham
and Max Myers were present; the limb fas
placed in an ordinary fracture box, first by a
strip of court plaster, with lint over that, and
bandages wet with cold water and the addition a
of sugar of lead; it was kept constantly moist
and cool, wet as often as every half hour; two
days after I ordered application of poinded ice
in cloth; this was on Friday morning; the inner Ir
dressing was not removed, merely o change in
outer dressing; it was continued until the eighth
day after the injury, until the 10th of Jnne Tthe
fSSSlViljs* re D °t removed ; the knee
•»? S WM lcfl4 . m ? d Ter y severely, until J 1
the fourth day, remaining abont the same to 8u
the eighth day; on thia d>y he passed pl
a bad night, the knee and thigh swelling; on tbe
Sth day he bad a very severe ehill; commenced o*>
complaining of eold dressing, and it was re- Pi
moved ; Dr. Andrews in consultation ; we de
cided that the inflammation was of an erysipe
latous character; limb bathed in tincture of
iodine; nourishing diet; ordered beef tea; also JJ.'
quinine end wine; also gave internally
muriate tincture of iron; on the eighth "
and ninth days he showed symptoms of
prostration; limb presented inflamed appearance oa
Irom the first; much constitutional irritation; f o '
during this titne we give him anodynes to keep
bin quiet, al«o laxatives to open tne bowels;
think I gave Seidlltz powders and castor oil; the thi
prostration commenced on the eightn, became «tr
marked on the ninth; the limb suppurated above for
the knee; laid it open and found an abscess which t«r
di charged fre:id pus. Oa the next day spots t!n
appeared of a gangrenous aspect- The joint sup. m
on the eighth discharged more freelv oa
the ninth; no marked appearance about tbe limb
below the injary it was all this time in the rncture I
box after the tenth day the limb grew worse, the ?.[
mortification spreading; first discovered svmD- ,
toms of erysipelas on the eighth dav; the weo- '
ther from the 2d to tbe 16:h of June, 1 think,
was moist, not excessively warm; the patient
loyonastriw bed, 1 think; my impression is (
the feather bed was removed; examined irju
nes of the scalp; think ther went to the bone,
made by a sharp instrument; one was on top of
the head, the other back of that and to one tide;
they healed readily, we had occasion to notice «*»
them after tbe first application; patient eon*,
plained of severe tenderness in his stomach*
said the man kicked him there.

'k® ,*'. nn ® s*—Much tbe same aa yesterday j com
the plaina to-day of soreness in the region of the
len stomach; said the man tliat assaulted bin had
rae kicked him there; ordered the same course of
?ht treatment to be continued; said his limb felt
jon better when kept very cooL This coarse of
on treatment was continued up to tbe 10th, the
ind eighth day of the injury, there being no mate
ian rial alteration in symptoms up to this time. On
iim. tbe morning of the 10th I found him worse, tbe
j knee was swollen more than it bad been, and
me. tbe thigh abore the knee; the pulse was 110
cb; per minute at*d rather weak; he bad had a bad
ara night; tbe woand below the knee was discharge
iu- ing some thin, bad smelling pus; was going to
he the city and asked Dr. Andrews to see the pa
:be tientwith me in the afternoon; auring my ab
inn scence the patient had a severe chill; we, on a
ras careful examination of the limb, decided that i
ce; tbe spreading inflimmation of tbe limb was aa
tea earning an erysipelatous character; the cool
dressing was no longer grateful, and ordered it
discontinued, bathed the limbs with Txnei. lod.\
a " ordered beef tea with wine and Quinine, also
£ ur ' Ferri, taken internals; we dis-
D '» cussed the propriety of amputating the limb and
a came to the conclusion that the patient stood
Q S more chances of recoreiy with the limb than
with an amputatioa, in his condition,
int Jane 11.'—General appearance of the patient
in- rather worse; on examination of the thigh just
'nbove the knee I discovered a large abscess,
_ chich l laid open, and & large quantity of Tery
*hin t bad smelling pus was discharged; the
U* woand below tbe ko*a was also discharging a
-d, large quantity of the same kind of pas; tbe
or whole cavity of the joint was evidently in a
oe sajpirating condition; same treatment as yes
u- tereay continued.
he June 12.—Dr. Andrews met me again; the
al patient is evidently getting worse; wound and
■is abecees discharging enormous quantities ofvery
as bad pus; a black spot on tbe ouriide of the limb
looked like gangrene; stomach very irritable,
e; vomits;food and* medicine; pulse 125 to ISO,
u weak; ordered injections of weak solution of
is Sulph. Zinc into cavity of abscess, to check if
|d possible the excessive discharge, also to bathe
J tbe whole front portion of the body with £M.
Jlur. Tine. Ferri, and to use injections of beef
l * tea, to nourish the patient as much as possible;
the other remedies to be continued if the stom
al ach would retain them. From this time until
r > tbe morning of his death, the 16th, this course
f of treatment was steadily followed up; be con*
r - * tinned to get worse, tbe whole thigh being more
r or less in a gangruous condition at the time of
7 his decease. From the 12th to the 16th Dr. An
