A CONFLICT OF AUTHORITY. < - Carious Complications In the Inferior Court-Who ls Solicitor ? The new tribunal for the dispensation of j Justice known as the Interior Court appears to have run against a snag, owing to a conflict o? authority between the two solicitors who claim the right to conduct the prosecutions in the new court. To explain the merits of the matter lt will be necessary to refer to the his? tory of this solicltorshlp. It may be remem? bered that at the last general election Ur. D. H. Chamberlain, with the thrifty design of | making sure of one or the other, ran for both the office of attorney-general and the solicl torshlp of the First Circuit. Being elected to both these positions he chose to occupy the former and more lucrative one, leaving a va? cancy in the Bolicltorsblpto be filled, accord? ing to the constitution, by the judge of the First Circuit. Judge Graham accordingly ap polnted Ur. E. B. Seabrook, who performed the duties and was fully recognized as the so? licitor ef the circuit until recently, when a Charge wa9 made, Mr. Seabrook was remov- j ed, and Mr. John G. Mackey appointed by Judge Graham lu the exercise of his undispu? ted con8lltutlonal authority. This was the po? sition of affairs when the new court was opened, and the law creating the new court distinctly enacts In Section 2 that "all prose? cutions shall be conducted by the attorney general or the solicitor of the circuit to which the County of Charleston may be at? tached." Solicitor Mackey supposed that be be? came the prosecuting officer of the Inferior Court, and accordingly prepared the cases that were to be brought before it, and attend? ed its opening session In the capacity of solici? tor. Judge Lee, however, appeared to take a different view of the matter, and, at the open? ing of the court, ignored entirely the appoint? ments by Judge Graham, and went back to Mr. Chamberlain as the solicitor who had been I elected by the people, although lt Is stated > that he bas not even qualified as solicitor, and I it ls certain that he bas never exercised the functions of that office. The form of calling I " Mr. Chamberlain to act as solicitor was pone through with, and, Mr. Chamberlain not - I spondlng, Judge Lee Issued an order appoint- j lng Mr. E. B. Seabrook the solicitor pro tem- j1 poi e of his court, claiming to act under the 11 BameTSconstltutlooal authority as waa exercised J by Judge Graham in bis appointments. Solid-1 ' tor Mackey thereupon retired from the court, I i after delivering the protest which was pub-1 ' li?hed yesterday, and took with bim the papers which he bad prepared for the consideration I ' ol the grand jury. These papers he turned I < over to the clerk of the court, by whom they 11 were afterward delivered to Mr. Seabrook, 11 and yesterday the court came to a stand-still, I i and adjourned until Monday to allow of the I < re-preparatlon of the cases. As the matter J now stand*, therefore, Mr. Seabrook is In fact I j the acting solicitor of the court, while I ? Ur. Mackey claims-to be the only officer I ( entitled to perform the duties of that position, j { It is a very pretty quarrel as lt stands, and I ( may lead to some curions legal complications. I j If the prosee uti ocr officer of the new court ls II- 11 leg^By appointed,the whole ofthe prosecutions I j mu>t be illegal and the convections will be nail I. and void. An excellent ground fer an appeal I ? to the Supreme Court will be presented in j ? every case which may be tried before the new I t court, and writs of ha heos corpus for the liber- I a atlon of prisoners convicted therein may be I d 'expected to be plentiful. In the meantime, IE Solicitor Mackey declares his Intention of ex- fi erclslng the right of nolle prosegu? and other j ? functions ol his office, and has filed his com-1 c mission with the treasury to secure his pay as I a solicitor. In the new court yesterday the only business I u transacted was the formation of the following I c petit Jurors: jury No. 1-W. T. Elfe, foreman; H. L. Bent- r( ford, Garret Byrnes, Roland Brisbane, William 11 Corbett, E. Daly, W. F. Dover, Henry Dixon, Allen Edwards, W. H. W. Gray, W. H. Gibbes, James Hasell. 11 Jury No. 2-A. E. Phllippy, foreman; Paul J t Holmes. William Jackson, F. S. Ll lien thal, r W. C. Ultchell, Peter Uota, A. UcCoy, Wm. j c Murrell, Samuel Mears, C. S. Uliler, George I: Nelson, Samuel Peronneau. . I? The United States Court. I 8 In the United States Circuit Court, before a Judge Bryan yesterday, the following order I r, admitting Colonel Joseph F. Gist to ball was d granted: 11 The United States vs. Joseph F. Gist. On t motion ol Henry Buist and T. Y. Simons, Esqs., r and io consideration of the feeble heatth of . the defendant, lt is ordered that the said de-11 fendant be allowed to give recognizance in I f the aum of ten thousand dollars, conditioned I ii that the defendant shall attend court from j day to day and not to depart from the limits I [ of the City of Charleston without the order of fc the court. I r Colonel Gist appeared with his bondsmen, c Messrs. A. J. Crews, L. D. Mowry and J. B. ja Sloan, who gave the required security, and he 1 was released. r In the case of the Goodyear Dental Vulcan? ite Company, et al, against George U. Jones, L. D. Owens, George Smith and Allen W. P Snyder, lor au infringement of a patent, Judg-10 . ment was rendered for the plaintiff, and the 8 case referred to Daniel Horlbeck, Esq., to '8 take testimony as to the amount of damages to be awarded. The case of John L. Biakely, charged with opening a letter contrary to law, was nolle prossed. Wm. H. H.

Many of C'tr Citizens have contributed liberally towards the purtle ot these guns, but there yet remains to be raised a small amount to en? able the club to complete the purchase, and there !B no doubt that the people of Caries ton, with a jost appreciation ot the merits o' the object, will meet ibis demand upon their generosity with promptness.
