The unusally l*rg? amount of criminal caeca employed the Court till Tliureday k*t, part of which d?y and Friday only were devoted to civil eatee, but a great deal of tmlitigated buaineae Was neverthelcra dirDoped of hv Jiile* 0?? >i?l uhm! appeal* al*o from the Judge of Prohate and Trial Magistrate*. The Judge left for Andemon on Saturday morning, and is to hold Court there this week. His Honor displayed throughout the terns hi* usual High judicial ability and satisfactory ad ministration of the law. There was ease of Dower, BehethtenBstes vs. JotiM Baths, in which the decision ot Judge Ok* is of puhlio interest. The claimant., in 1862, with another, administer ?d on her deceased husband's estate. The same year she petitioned the Ordinary to sell the land to aid in raying debts and for distribution .end " to get her rights" fn the name. The land was duly sold by order of the Court of Ordinary, as the result of her application, purchased by the defendent Batks, and paid for according to the ternaa of sale. Th? debts w ere Istger than anticipated'perhaps enough to consume the proceeds ol the sale. But nothing further was i done, and the money laid 1.1 the Court and ! finally perished with all ether Confederate paper. In 1869. the widow ened Batrs the purchaser, for dower. The Piobate Court gavs judgment in her faror. Batks ap j pealed. Judge Or.R sustained the appeal, j and revieed the decision of the probate Court, on the ground that the land having : been once sold hy virtue of plaintiff*s own petition, she could not afterwards claim Her J dower out of the land itself. Her remedy might have been in the proceeds of the < sale. If the money was lost, it was- her J misfortune. The Judge sustained- his opinion in the ease in a clear and forceble man. ner. The following sentences were passed. We omit the misdemeanors: II nry Holcouihe?Manslaughter. Six months imprisonment. The defendant was a mere boy when the offence was commit ted, six years ago, and .mitigating circum" stances. John I*. Cooper?Aison. Fifteen years in penitentiary, Giorge Jntkson, colored?Burglaty.? Eightren months in penitrntinry. George Logan, c?red ? A'Siultand Bit tery with intent to kill. One year in penitentiary. Amos Uudgcns, colored?Convicted ol murder. Sentenced to be executed on Fiiday, 31st Xasch. The Wife'# Dower. We were surprised to see that a bill h?g been introduced by Mr. Wilkes in the House of Representatives in this Slate, to take away the wife's tight of dower. We hope the measure will he abandoned. Surely, in this age Of favorable legislation for woman, such a hill will not be pressed e>i? aJTowed to succeed. If it is founded on the fact that, itie law now [ro'ects the wifes property. It is n wholly insufficient consideration, for it aesnmea I hat nil w fves have separate prop crty, lands, Ac. Aa the law stands, it can work no injustice. Every one has notice of it. Power is often the only stay for a widow and children out of a wrecked ea tat?, and the only menus the wife may have of living ; besides it gives gome assurance whilst the bit-band is living against ultimate destitution of the wife. If the husband dies sol vent, his estate is bound to disks good losses by dower, and the wife cannot taken distributive part and dower also; ?he must cboose. The wife's fight of dower is even a protection and advantage to many a husband; it lessens the temptation of pharpera to cheat him out of his lands, or to run hiin in debt to sell him out. Qov. Scott's Message in Relation to Disturbances in Certain Counties. We publish in full the able Message of Gov. Fcott in answer to a call of the I.egis latere for information on the above question. It is wise and patriotic in its spirit and language, and reminds one of the old gemiine Re pub Uranism of the Jeffersonian atari,p It is very gratifying to see, too, that the Message is heartily approved ami applnude > by the press of this State, of all parties; and if the views it contains are carr e?l out in good faith hy the government o f this State, we shall have peace in reality in all our borders. From ail the indications. ' we bePeve (liat tlie war measures prepared by some of the violent members in the Leg islature will not succeed. ? ? -<? > ? ? Hon. Wm. P. Price. The Ktowte Courier of the 20th inst. ays: " This gentleman has recei tly been elected to Congress from the fiih Georgia Congressional District.

The French leaders are, therefore, responsible for whatever devasta* ' tion Paris may suffer. Trae, the people themselves are said to wish to hold oat to the last, bat we doabt it somewhat.

The state of things in Franco i* the old story over again?the masses of the people, the million* are sacrificed for the ambition of few, for the rulers for the time, and would* bo rulers and oSre-helders. and for the fieri Oration of a particular General. IVe think enlightened history will stamp with crime, and perhaps infamy, the General who shuts up bis army in a great city and holds out to its destruction by the engines of modern war. It is different now from what it was in old times. Sealing over or battering walls, when bopc might coat in ac to the last, and destruction only coald ensue when a hostile army en- : tend tbo sity. Kuw whenever the great bombshells can rain down thick among the Houses and inhabitants of a city, the foo i, practically villiu it; and if the besieged army is unable to drive biui speedily from the besieging point whence the guns send their missiles of desolation, that army is already defeated, and worse than defeated?it is attempting to save its rcpntution l>y the destruction of the place and people whom they falsely boast- ol defending. Shame on such heroism; it is vain glory?folly and moral cowardice?the very opposite ol the virtues displayed by Gen. Lf.f. in his surrender ut Appomattox.

Editor??Since my Inst letter, business lias been constantly accumulating upon the calender. There are now eighty-four hills on the calendar awaiting their second resiling. Alter the call of counties for the last four days, the inevitable question of martial law in the refractory counties, already referred to, has engaged the time of the House. winpper, liyas, Jones and Juno MoMey, all colored, are the principal speakers who advocate the passage of the bill. The House has been ready for a vote upon the bill two days ; but Mobley, although he says he docs not fully approve of the bill, is unwilling it should be voted down until some other adequate remedy is adopted. He has held the floor for the lust two days, and the fuither consideration is made the speoial order for Tuesday. The bill will be voted down by a large majority. All the white Radicals have opposed the bill, for which they were taunted by the colored orators. Toe most rampant advocates of the measure, have bcon those farthest removed from danger. This did not j escape the notioe of the Radical speaker* of the opposition. The proceedings io the impeachment e?s?, were initiated on Friday, and at the request of council for the defence, Mr. J. D. Pope, farther action waa postponed until Tuesday next. A motion waa made in the Senate for lha State to pay the expenses of Judge Vernon's witnesses. It bowevet failed, hut Mr. Leslie, oa tbe Senate floor, declared bis purpose to pay tbe costs of Judge Ver non'a wtrneaaav httneeif, and atnhorlted Mr. v Pope to summon a* many witnesses a? be nnaded. Mr. Lnaile advoaoted tbe jontice of tba Stat# paying all expanses in tbe caae, ax ' tba State w#a at mneh int erotic J in aa acquit* tal at in a coarlotion, tfhe trial ought not to oocaipy mora than b*o or jfonr 'day*; but if tba Sonata U at dilatory In this, aa iu matter* of legislation, it may take a week or two. Col. Crittenden baa introdaced a bill to amend tha present road law, by including all from 10 to 00 year# ol age, Inatead of 18 to 45( and to collect forfeiturca in the tame manner at tazct. Another bill on tbe tamo subject, { |irvnuc> tuiriy aays imprisonment for failures. The Utter remedy will reach some ease* where jhe former will fail. An appropriation of half million for free schools, is talked of. I trust wo shall be able to scale down the exaggerated ideas the Radioal members entertain on this subject. A hundred thousand dollars, with the poll tax rigidly collected, will be adequate to tho general necessities. It is at least as much as the people can dcento to this purpose. The salaries of School Commissioners will be reduced. The hill now pending is undergoing amendments. I think they will bo curtailed nearly half. Two railroad charters arc now being asked ' for?the Savannah Valley Railroad, to connect Adcrson with Augusta?tho other called Tugalo, to commence at the point where tho 1 Air-Line Railroad mar cross the Blue Ridge, I 1 and terminate at Hartwell, (ia., and to connect with Augusta by the llartwcll and Aa- ' | gufta Railroad. The Savannah Railroad is i not a new project. A charter was obtained, | I think, in 1854 ; and Governor Perry, if I I mistake not, opposed it, upon the grounds, that the road woald detract fro in the business of the Greenville A Columbia Railroad, ( and would build np the cities of Georgia in- r stead of Columbia and Charleston. This view ; of the case is still pertinent, and I bare grave j doabts as to the expediency nnd jnstice of the ! . matter, as it relutcs to tho interests of the !
