Cla? rion Sc Witto, opposite THE Narwa ornoo, was broken into on Wednesday night last, and f?ve? ral hags of coffee, a quarter cask of brandy, onda number ot small artioles were stolen, There wore plain marks where o wheelbarrow had been need to carry off tho booty. Appli? cation woo made for ? detective throe time? on Thursday and agalo on Friday and on Satur? day, on whioh day an officer did go to th? ?pot. Ho pursuit in ouch a case waa likely to be suc? cessful unless made while tho trail was bot, and wo kopo that ibero may bo tomo good teoso? why the detectives were so ?low in making their appearance. TUMS UV O TTAEBAJflO CAS E. . According to appoint mont. Associate Justioe Willard resumed, yoetorday attemoon, tho hearing of tho quo warranto against T, J. Mackey, David Barrow, and J. F. Greeno, Al? dermen. Mr. Prossley proposed to confine the argu? ment to the single point whether this court haB the right to try thia case, notwithstanding the relurus. There ia a olosa of oases in this State where there was no trial by jury. He contended, also, that the property that ex? isted in the office was not suoh property as as would require the intervention of a Jury to deprive one of. Ho contended that tho Legis? lature had a right to provide for tho trial of a right involving an office without a trial by jury. The very oflioe purporting to be held by the party is an offlc? from which other persons were ousted without the intervention of a jury, and he placed into office by legisla? tive enactment. The court in tho recent case decided that the Legislature m*y do what it pleases in reference to an office of a corpora? tion, lt the L?gislature then has the right to eject a party from office without the interven? tion of a jury, it certainly has a il^ht to order his right to the office to be tried without a a jury. If the Legislature has the right to provide for a method of trying these casos, bas it done so? He then proceeded to review the mode of procedure from tho early days of the common law up to the present time. The act of 1818 gave a judge sitting at chambers a right to try quo warrante, and make a de? cision as though they were in open court, and gave the parties the right of appeal to the constitutional courts of appeal. The case could go to a jury only when it comes to a question of damages. It is competent for tho court only to award judgment of ouster or discharge the rule. He also contended that tho g'vin g of th?, jurisdiction carries with it the right to try-be causo without the right to try, the jurisdiction would be a nullity, and tho act giving tho court jurisdiction in the subject matter ot a quo roar ran?o gives it jurisdiction to do everything else, and decide the case on a quo warranto. It followed, therefore, that if tho court did not have a jury, the court coal. try the issue it? self. The court should first hear the testi? mony, and if it appears-?rom this that there is a question of fact, it could be submitted to a jury. Mr. Bowen followed for the respondents. He contended that the powers which the court possessed and those granted by the Legisla? ture there might be caaes in which the facts were not disputed, and these cases the court could try, but m this case the allegation is de? nied. The aot provides that justices oan hear and determine issues of fact when both parties file their consent; and this implies that the party has a right to demand a trial. He con? tended that by the thirteenth and fourteenth artioles of the constitution the parties had a right to trial by jury. He also insisted that it was the province of the jury to decide as to the intention, in case a party be moved from the State. Much had been said about haste. If they wish to stop Council, they oan do it just cs well by ousting their own men. His clients had bees elected by the people of Charleston, and the parties ought certainly be content to give them a fair trial. He then cited a number of oases in sup? port of his position, that issues of faot must always be tried by juries. Mr. Thorin followed also for the respon? dents. He said that in mandamus the return of the respondents is conclusive until falsified by a jury. In this case they have not only failed to falsify the return by a jury, but they have not even falsified it by a jurat. The allegations in the information was not even seora to, a?d ie J us i so much waste paper. lt the party demanda a jury, the court has no I right to decide the question. The residenoe is a question of fact, and could be best deoided by twelve men. He contended that the. whole proceedings were unconstitutional. It was a question that should have been brought up by indictment, and not by quo warranto. The respondents now have to anster a clause which had not been set up, and he, therefore, claimed that they should be dismissed. Mr. Lord submitted the case to the court without adding to the argument of his prede? cessor. The argument, it will be perceived, was con? fined to the question of whether the case be? longed properly to a jury, and did not touch the real merits. The Judge announced that be wonld require some time to consider the motion, and would endeavor to announce his decision as soon as possible. LARGE SALE OF SEOUBITIES AND REAL ESTATE. Mr. Z. B.

Tko court opened at ll o'olook yesterday morn mfr, Chief Justice Ohaeo and Judge Bryan on the bench. The court resumed the consideration of the case of the steamship Moneka vs. Richard Ar? nold. Libel for damagea to throe horses ia transitu from New York to Charleston. A. H. Brown, Esq., was heard for appellee. Decision reserved. Steamer City J'oiut vs. James P. Smith. Libel for damages sustained by appellee in the breaking of the gang plank while passing from tho steamer to the wharf. A. H. Brown, Esq., appeared for appellant; G. D. Bryan, Esq., for appellee. The grounds taken by counsel for appellant for setting aside the decree of the District Judge were that the appellee,Smith,was one of of that class denominated as runners, and had no right on board the steamer; that he remained there until admonished that thevessel waa about to leavo the* wharf, and that he and his compan? ions then made a rush, Jumping from the wheel-house upon the gang plank, which broke and precipitated (Smith into the water, which resulted in his instituting an action for dam? ages. Counsel cited the act of 1852, which prohibits runners from going on board a ves? sel without permission. Counsel for appellee replied, showing that these mon were employed by a regular ship? ping master to take on board the steamer a number of sailors going to Savannah, and that the act of 1852 did not apply. The Chief Justice held that it was ck tho evidence, that the plank waa defective* ought cot to have been used for passengers going on board, or passengers from the steamer. It is the duty of ibo master to pro? vide a plank of sufflcieat' sfrettgtb, and ht was bound tb provida for" 41t the emergenoies of ordinary travelling that may occur either ia going on board or leaving the vessel. It, would be no excuse for a master to say that there waa a rush. It did not appear that the appellee in this oase was there as a runner, but was apparently employed in putting men on board who were to be transported on the steamer to another port, under a contract with the ves? sel itself. The act of 1852 did not apply to this case. That gives the master power to protect himself against runners as trespassers, and have them punished for a misdemeanor, but it doea not give him any power to have an j insufficient plank, by whioh any person may fall and sustain damage. The decree of the District Judge was therefore affirmed. Steamer Moneka vs. Strauss & Yanoe. Libel for damages on breaoh of contract of affreight? ment. Porter & Conner for appellant; J. N. Nathan, Esq., for appellees. Appeal dis? missed. Albert O. Stone, appellee, vs. Schooner Grapeshot, and owners, appellants. Libel for supplies furnished vessel. A. H. Brown and Edward MoCrady, Sr., Esqs., for appellants; Porter and Conner for appellees. James G. and D. C. Marsh, appellees, vs. Schooner Grapeshot, and owners, appellants. Same counsel. Eanapaux & Lanneau, appellees, vs. Schoon? er Grapeshot, and owners, appellants. G. D. Bryan for appellees; A. B. Brown and Ed? ward MoCrady for appellants. The Chief Justice affirmed the decree of the District Judge in the above oases. Nothing is dearer than that the owners of a vessel are bound by the action of the master who is ap? pointed by them and representa them. Where a master obtains supplies for his ship, neces? sary and proper for the vessel, whether in her own or a foreign port, the owners are liable, and the remedy exista against the owners. If the master undertakes to bind tho owners in a matter beyond the limit of bia employ, the owners would not be liable; but there waa no auch complaint in these cases. The owners were liable either jointly or severally, and pro? ceedings against them could not be arrested by showing that all the owners were not served with notice of process. The parties furnish? ing the material or supplies oould have their remedy against the agents or owners of the vessel, and if one of the owners failed to make settlement, the remedy must bo sought against him.
