Hurd tclmzm g0 much raise, becomes clearly apparent., . - e In order to make the eccurities of an sdminis- trator or an executor Lisble, the common law re- quires, 1. A judgment against theadministrator or exocutor as such. 2. A second suit, also against the administrator or cxe_cntoxa and a ver- dict of detastavit therein: that is, & inding that the sdminisérator or oxecntor kas wasted the mesets, or bas eloigoed or disposed of and con- Serted tho sxme to bis ovn use. 8. After thers two suits havo been -carried through fo the end, then, and not till thon, are tho securities of an sdministrator or an executor Ziable to be sued. Theso' principles were long 20 declared to bo the lnw in thia State. Biggs et al. v. Postcihweaite, Bre. 154 (193) end’ cases {here cifed. So also in Greenup et sl v. W ood- eorth. Bre. 179 (232), and Same v. Drown, Bre. 103 (22). Those cases were all decided befora 1§79. In the revision of that year, two new sec- tions were prepared and enactad for the express jarpose of remoring thoso diflicultics. The first ispenes with a decastavit in thoso few cases where the Probate Court orders the payment of money. See Statutes, vol. 1, p. 823 §, 162, The second dispenees with o devasfgvil in all ofter cases. Stafates, vol 1, p. 825, § 175. From 1829 to 1873, theso two sections formed s part of the law. But- by ine extremely careful and_judicious revision of 3, Hurd, the latter section is “svept away" znd not ré-ouacted. Tho reenlt is that in a vory farge class of cases, meurly all that msuaily occar, the securitins of an adminietrator or.an erecutor 1o subject .to_no liavility, whatever, &t after two suits on tho same ceuse of sotion bave been brought sgainst their principal, and both hsve been' successfally prosecatod to the ead.

Hurd derived all his powers required him to t his revision to the Legislature in the form of & nfi)fimcd report, puridcularly noting fherein “all changes and additions.” And it has bean shown thiat this poeitive requirement of tho lew ‘was also eenctioned by usage and recedent, and was absolutely neccasary acd in- E\Fpenn\:ie, in order to afford tho Legislaiure a Inowleg, Vision. of the character of the proposed re- Without that-knovledge, 1o act imder- fundingly was impossible.

Iurd offers no rnp‘g. He Careleasly repaats his former statement that the Judiciary Committees “ dictated * the mannerin which his report should be presented. Andbence %e repeat that ro Committee, and no two Com- Iittees, nor all the Committeos of both Houses, power to release him from his obligations to Sbey that stainte, A maiter of fack, his dis- obedience was complete and perfect before either of those Committees had an _csistence. By failing to have n printed roport to present when the Legielature convened, he had failed in his whole duty, end ought then to have beendis- missed in disgrace. . But Mr. Hurd undertakes to eay that his ““changes and additions” could bo known. De- cause, he sars, he cat out of old books the old scctions of the law, and pasted them into his re- vised bills, and the old numbers_might there be plainly seen. And thisisurged as a sufficient compliance with the law, Buf let us consider. The mere fact that a certain section of a revisod bill was in priat, and pasted in, would only show that those words had ouce been printed. The reader might infer, though he comld not kmow, that they had been printed in & book of the acts of some previous session. DBut he certainly could not, from such s scrap, know from which one of some twenty different books it had been taken, nor on what page of that book he would find it. Nor could he know either the rabject or the date of tho original mct, for heither of theso would appear. Thero should hiave been & reference, plain and fall, from each one of those old soctions to the very book and page whence it came. In no othor mods is' it possible for &ny lcgislator, in tho limited timo at Lis command, to inform himself of the facts ho must possessin order to voto understandingly. But it is needless to repest tho arguments and gonxgdmtiom! which have alrcady been set orth. - j “ 'This cxplanation of Mr. Hurd contains anoth- or traneparent abswdity. It prococds upon the theory that each momber of the Legislaturo conld have all the orizndl bills in -his posses- sion, and could retain them in his hgpds for a suflicicnt timo to admit of his personal examina- tiou and comparigon of the printed ‘scraps they might contain. But there wero in the House 177 members; in the Senate 50 members; in all, 227 different mens' To assert that' all theso, or thohalf of them, or the tenth of them, could Tave tho uso of tho original bills, is too abstird for Berions reply. It is plainly impossible, then, that the changes and_ sdditions mado by the reviser conld ever Lo known in any such way. The facts abundantly show that hundreds of them néver were kmewn until long aftor the Legislaturo bad sdjourned; indecd, scores of thom are still unknown. Every bill was read twice and thon printed. Tho troth is that the printed copy was_all that any member bad or could have for his porsonal oxamination. It ‘would bavo beon impossible to keep any omo original bill out of the files of tho House, forfthe continuous study aud compariton’ which ooy one member- would require. The printed Dbill was 2l that amembercould Lave or did have for examination at his dosk or in his room. Upon this slono ho was compelled to rely; by this his yote was delermined. And herois juct where Ir, Hurd could and should havs rendered his sceistanco asa roviser. Had he put in-tho proper references to the acts whence he had bor- rovied, those referonoces would havo appoared in the printed bill ; every member would have seen them and might have used them. = Iind he en- clozed in brackets the words of the old law that ho recommended for omiseion, and printed in itallo new mattor, every porson who 2w tho roport conld have formed an intelli- font judgmentupon it. Thus easily might the plain’command-of thelaw, to let *all his changes ond cdditions” be known, have been oboyed. And thus eseily might evory requirement of ronsop, as sct forth hero and formerly, have béen folly met. Nor would such a course involye the purchaae of any of those ‘unbound statutes” with which Mr, Hurd is so_sorely burdencd. It wonld oaly reqnire from him a little of that prinstaking diligenco at which ho is so ready to snocr, and of which he has never yet been ac- cuged [ ‘Under an act precisely eimiler to ours, Afr. B.

BOARD OF: UNDERWRITERS. Meeting Yesterdny Afternoon--Commissions to Brokera--Report on the Unsafeness of the -Union -Park Congregational and Seventh Presbyterian Churches. . An adjourned meeting of the Chicago Board ot Fire Underwriters was hold ycsterday after~ noon. A most animated. discuseion was indulged in regarding the by-law referring to brokers and their commissions. It was finally decided to leavo the by-Iaiv nnchanged, the Board regarding any increass of commissions as tending tovward a: decrenss of insurance rates. A communication was read from the Babeock Fire Extingunishing Company, oifcring to pre- sent the Board one of their largest four-wheeled extinguishers, providing the Board would por~ chage horses forit, and uso it whenever o fire. occurred. The members were' not agreed as to whether it should be accepted. and the matier was finally reforred to the Patrol Committee. Tho Committce appointed to oxamine the churches of the city reported that they had bnt commenced their 1abors, and could not make a full report. The Chairmau, however, said that they had already found two churches which, in thelr judgment, were entirely unsafo, and they ~would: recommond that tho rates on them bo raised so. as to cover risks of the worst charac- ter.- These were tho Union Park Congregational Church and tho- Soventh Presbyterian. Tho. former was especially unsafo. The chicf danger in both churches erises from defective flues. The Committee will report in full when their la- born shall bo completed.

They were ‘not. The Mayor Had decapitated ‘Kepnedy and appointed Washbarn, and, although he had objeoted, be-- lioving that the Mayor had no right to make the” change, ho had supported Waabburn; but he (Washburn) had issucd orders withont the au- thority of tho Board. This was the causo of complaint. iz Commissioner Klokke thought ‘twelve hours daty was too much to expect of the men. . Commissioner Sheridan said the force was ef- ficient; thoy had madc 26,000 arrests during the past year. Presidect Reno remarked that the Board did not want to demoralize the force or place the Superintendent in o bad light’; they desired to do the best for the city and the men. Ald. O'Brien said Lie understood the men had no_confidence in the Superintendent.

Schaffuer said there was a difiiculty be- tween tho Board and the Superintendont.” It should be removed, and the question for them to {alk about was, What can be dona?” 'If the present conflict continued, the forco would bo demoralized. y g Commissioner Sheridan _remarked that there was no dosire on tho part'of the Beard to ob- struct the Saperintendent, other that in accord: ence with the rules and regulations of thoPolice | Department. . .[The -Superintendent had’ been-| asked to attend the moetings of the, Board and submit his propoaitions, but ho bad pleaded want of time. He had neyer been “direct]; requested to be presont, but it had been inti- mated to him that his attendance would be bene- ficigl. The. order in _relation® to . special bail was iven without the. -knowl- edge of tho Board, but they bad scquicecod in it, becauso the opinion of *the Cur{)umtien Counsel was that money could nob be deposited for the appearance of a prisoner, Commissioner Klokke eaid if anyoue thought the Board had autharized the Superintendent to. doas he pleased, they were wrong. A resolution had been passed roquiring him to submit all goneral orders to the Board. In -violation of that rule. he had issued a ganoral order, thoreby ignoring the Board. . About half an hour was then spent in discus- sing the quostion whether the Buperintendent posted himself as to the transsctions of' the oard. The minutes of the meeting were acces- gible, and a rule of the Board required him to consult them. v s : Ex-Comunissioner Titsworthexplained how the, old Board managed it.

Schaffner said the Board was responsible for the workiugs of the force, and showld re- serve to itself tho power toissue goneral orders. Otherwiso.there would always bo conflicts. Ald.

AE, President Reno said thero was novquestion about_tho Board having power to snnul all the | Buperintendent had done. = Something must bo done. : Commissioner’ Sheridan did not think; ‘when sn order did mot accord with their judgment, that the public should ‘imagine, from their silence, that they acquiesced in it. T Alderman Heath remarked that Washburn had said if he could have two months to test the sys- tem, and it did not work to the entire satisfac- tion of the citizons and of tho police, ho would - “throw down the glove.” Tho peopledemanded that something be done. s Commissioner Sheridan . said, in -his judg- ment, if the order was enforced, bofore the two months one-balf of the men would be lors de combat, and the city would have to pay them, although deprived of their eervices. Ald. Heath considered tho Board somewhat fo ‘blame for the prosont demoralization. . Commissioner Sheridan admitted that they were censurable for neglecting to put their foot down at the start. - They had been actually in- sulted. 3 ‘ Commigsioner Klokko remarked that, if the Aldermen knov a3 much about it ss' the Com- ‘misssoners did, they ‘would entertain_ smilar opiniene.

Jamee, United States Army, was’ GRANVILLE KIMBALL. The Michigan Central Thirty Years Ago. . A Reminiscence of an Usefnl Lite, - One by. one our old residents are passing ‘away. A few days since was chronicled tho death of Granville Bimball. At the first an- nouncement the event seemed shrouded with a painful mystery, but this has completely dis- solved, and it is certain that deceased met his fato by accident. There is nothing in his affairs or business that justifies any other view. Ho was possessed of a compe- tence, had few or no business cares, and a melancholy accidont has taken him from n community where, for so many years, his has been &’ familiar and most respected name. But the life thus closed deservos more than a brief mention of regrets. Like a fow who still remain among thie active men of city which has risen where they found a straggling prairie village, Mr. Kimball was strobglyidentified with some of tho most important phases of that carly period. 1n 1342, Alr. Kimball, originally from Nesw Hamp- shire, parted with hisinterostin the old American House at Buffalo, and came to Detroit to identi- fy bimaelf with the transportation of the tide of travel secking tho West. Michigan, like most of her sister States, bad gone strorgly into in- ternal improvements, ‘and was then running two partly built railroad lines, the Michigan Central and the Michigan Southern. The former was being pushed westward from Detroit, along ths old military rcad, and St. Josoph, proud and happy in its foture, was to be the weetsrn terminms. The Michigan Southern_loft Toledo and Monroe, and the two Tines made a junction at Adrian, a3 at prosout. Besides theso, the State had othor railroad and caual schemes, and the State Board of Public Works was a busy institution.~ Our esteemed and venerable fellow-citizon, Colonel Samuel Blone, was Socretary of thia Doard, with his oflice at the corner of Woodward avenue street, Dotroit. Mr. Kim- With tho Stage Com- pany which connecied with fhe terminus of the Michigan Cenral for Chicago. Among fta other propristors was ths late B. F. Hadduck, of this city. The Micliigan Central, in State control, thirty 'WAS & primitive affair. Its track was strup . rails of unpleasani remem- brances, given to sudden snake-heads, when the rail would curl up throngh the car, to the havos and horror of passongers. It was no uncommon thing to run off the frack. It was the early dsy of railroading. In 1842 tho Michigan Central was open to Jackson, eighty miles from Detroit, giving to passengers's plump 200 miles of stag- ing before they rolled across the prairie inio Chicago. - In 1845 the lino wes finished to Mar- shall, and in 1846 to 146 miles from Detroit, about 140 miles frum Chicago, in & good Btate of the ronds. At Bome periods of tho year- it waa fally 1,000, , During this period, from 1342 to 1846, Gran- ville Kimball received and forwarded tho west- ward travel from Detroit, always cheerful, ur- bano, and busy, the very model of n passage agent. - Each vight ho set down with Colonel Stone as Becretary of the Board of Public Works of Michigan to render account of ticketa by rsil. In 1846 the State took a square look at tho and retired therefrom. The MicLigan Central had, up to tlis point, cost £2,080,000. It was eold for £2,000,000 toJ. W. Trooks and the Eastern .partics he represented, and go hiappy was the selection of a successor to the State_managoment, that tho spirit of J. W. Brooks, -its first Superintendent, livos to-day in the magnificently-equipped and appointed Michigan ~ Central, in whose . history since 1846 no mistake scems to bave been chron- icled. To furnish the historical reference, it noeds to be added that in 1846 the RAfichigan Southern was also sold, for $500,000, 4fter hov- ing cost the State $1,300,000. At the same time the State sold out the Clinton and Kalamazoo Canal, which had cost $600,000, tho™sale being effected by paying grivate parties 10,000 scres of land to take the ditch off the hands of Stato and put things torights along tho_sbandaned line. The present age must not turd up ita nose at tho efforis of our early Western Stato logis- Istors in the way of improvements. They wero livomen, eaw the fnture, and struck boldly and Michigan ball was susociated assenger business, out to grasp it. Who can reckon the importanco’ of tho piomeer work they did to make it possible for _thoso who came after them? Perhaps moro of their spirit shonld bave remained in the State policy concerning routes of travel, for these old fol- 1ows belioved honestly that the Tor the people, and never dreamed that thero might bo a danger in reversing the proposition. Bat the change in the control of tho Alichigan Central onded Mr. Kimball’s relations in Detroi and he camo to Chicago, heyo to reside, and s and for years to bo associated with siago linew westward from this city. -And when the iron horgo had succeeded to the last of the Frink & Walkerlines, and the stage offico closed; Mr.'Kimball lapsed into the quiet and.urbsne citizen, moderately active in quiet echemes, and long ago reckoned among our well-to-do men. The incidents of ahuman life like his are human history ; the annals of his age conld bo well told in his expericnces and business lifo, which had g0 - much’ to do with the inflax of population in the West. What would the new comer in Chicago give to look out through such eyes as his upon the ewift pano- rama of thirty years growth of the city of Chi- cago and of its tributary region, angd note low & ecrambling collection of cheap tonements ba- came & magmificent and wide spread city, with its scoro of radiating - railway lines, making it the great interior focus of tho trade and com- merce of the continent? Mr. - Kimball will be missed by many who kaew his quiet worlh and who lament his sad, untimely fate, and this reminescence will recall him to many who in the years of his connection with travel remem- ber bis kindliness aud courtesy. Do all that have to do with the travelling community re- ‘member how long 5 kind emile, & choery Word, a ready service willlive in the mind of the stranger and pilgrim, such aa we ali become when we journsy among strange scencs ?

From the Indianapolis Nevs, The intense cold of tho past few nights has eatly worrted & _married couple in the West g;d, and the retirement to bed at night was a matter of much discomfort. A few evenings ago, the good wifo hit npon having a heated brick at their feet, and this not ben:g easily ac- cezgible, substituted a well-warmed flat-iron, snngly envwrapped in mnewspapcrs, and that within & fragment of an old dress.

With & cumse and a tre- mendous kick tho bedclothes wero heav- ed “high in the sir, * and he tar- ried not in a hasty scramblo to the door. The wifo followed, landing on hor head and shoul- ders; a dense smoke shot up, succeoded in- stantly by & flame, showing tho paper and dress on fire, The husband kicked at the burning mass, struck with Lis band. and finally knocked it to the floor. There waa a ecramble to prevent tho carpet from burning, and, when it ended, 1he huaband was severely ecorched on the hands, besides a burning, flimfi fragment of paper bad dumaged hiy bair and whiskers, The wife, poor thing, was paralyzed with terror while all this row Insted, and it was unanimously agreed, after quict was fostored, that hot irons were not such A& cozy comfort after all, and that it wasn't nocas- gary to “‘keep this thing up all winter.” BREAKING A WATERSPOUT. - An Almost Miraculous - Escapes-A .Olcar-Jleaded Sailor’s Expedient in 1he Absence of & Gun. The Rhine, s -sailing vessel of 1,006 tons, which has just arrived at New York from Lon- don, encountered an immense waterspout about 1,200 miles ont. Jobn Richardson, ono of the seamen, decnbes the phenomenon thus: “ About the time that you ask me, boss; the ship Rline was running along at therate of four knots an hour, which was pretty de speed for ench an old tab, now, I tell you. I think I heard the firet mato say that we wore in Iatitude 42 do- Feea when ho took the eun at 12 o’clock that day. Ve had boon out of a heavy galo only twelve hours, and the ses was ranning pretty high, At whout 2 o'clock in the afternoon something secmed to happen, the like of which I never saw before. The sea seemed to go down snddenly, as though something had been thrown on top of it and bad flattened it out all over, Then tho wind went down, and wo stood stock still. We looked anxiously for another squall. But there wore no signs of it In tho sky oraround the edges of the hiorizon.. At 8 o'olock we comldn't see ripplo on‘tho water; it was just 88 smaoth 28 the smootlest glaas I ever eaw.” The sails hung perfectly motionless and the atmosphere soemed to got heavy. A fellow felt as though ke would tike to take s full breath, but thatif he tried ho couldn't. As we hadn’t anything to do, and had been worked very hard. for forty-eight hours previous, we (the crew, I . mean) essembled around the forecastle, and to drive away tho nasty feeling that we all had,—n fecling of something Tough somewnero around that was only waiting for a good chance to make troublo for ua,—tegan teling Jokes and epinning yarms to ouc anofhier. Someliow or othar, though no- body ecemed to be interested by anybody's yarn, and no one laughed at & joke. I felt just 23 bad as tho rest, I guess, for I conldn't ace any fun in anything elther. Then we didn't say any- “thing for a litllo while, and I thick I must have fallen asleep, for I w: akened up suddenly by henflx;&lhc Captain's big baes voice,—he had a Eniia’ o bull, gir,—singing out, “ All hands on eck.” T jumped up as quick asT could—T couldn't jump very quick, for you see I'm old—and hastened aft to the mainmast. The other fellows were there ahoad of me, and when I gotup to them they all turned off in a different direction like madmen. Inoticed that the faces of most of them were 23 whito as chalk, and that the Captain wasasred 88 blood. His faco always got that way when he was excited in a_gale. % didu't know what wes tho matter, and a8 I looked around me at tho confusion, the cause for which I coaldn’t sge, I felt my heart do what it hadn't done for seventy yoars—boat against my ribs. I saw the zccond mate and asked him what was tho matter. He answered me by telling me to go to tho main brace or he would pitch mo overboard. I went there pretty gaick; 10t becanse I was afraid of going overboard, but beceuse I felt that something terrible was go- ing to Loppen, and that evon ey weight mxi‘;ht #ave_ the ship. When I got to the rope a fellow standing near mo. said,. “ Pull old man; don't you see the water-spont 5 I followed the direction of his eyes, and there, snre cnough, not more than ha!f a milo from us, was the biggest water-spout that I had ever seen in-all my life. It towersed above the shipat balf tho ocean. It was coming toward us like a stcam-engine, and the water for hundreds of i:\rdn ahead of it waa boiling like water in a ottle. We braced the yards around, put the wheel hard-a-port, and’ did everything that Iasy in our power to get- out’ of tho way of the.terrible destruction that was rushing upon us. There wasn't a breath of wind stirring, and there we lay right in the path of the water-spout, unablo to do thelesst thing to eave ourselves from the death that we felt sure st come in & fov moments. There were about seventy stecrage passengers with-us, tho most of wiom wers women and children, and tho way they screamed and . went on was enough to take the heart ont of any man. One old woman caught me round the legn and begged of mo for God's saka to save hor, while every one was rushing around trying to find out of his mind, for X eaw him deliberately kr & man down who was standing near him.. Some of the men ran down the forecastle ladder that they might not aee themselves die. - . What [ have been telling you nowalt occnrred in o moment, but the waterspout had coms, much nearer to us, and wo could hear the fear- ful hiss avd splash of the water £a it came whirling on. Just then I heard a young gentle- man in the cabin ask the Ceptain whetherhe had -8 gun on boerd. Tho Captain said “No,” and the young man’s face turned as white a8 snow, and I saw him ehake all over... Ho put his hand_ to his head and staggercd toward the main’ Datch, and in another moment ho would have fallen' down “tween” decks, when suddenly. thore was a cry from sbove that sounded like tho roar of a madman. It was heard above the loud roar of the surging water, and every eye was turned in the. direction that it came from. It came from a “shipmate” that we called ““Jnck.” ¥e was a emart fellow on his feet, and was s regular monkey among the ropes when he got aloft in a storm. Thore he was with a heavy block of wood in his hands thet he held above his he: and. was ghouting for us to “stand from under!” He +wzs on the main-yard-arm, the yard that carries the* storm aail,” you know. -We all ran for- ward, and when'the_coast was clear, *Jack” gavo the block swing and sent it down on deck a8 quick as a dash. It struck a shogt iron that was near the main hal and made » terrific report that sounded like & can- non's. We kept our eyes on him, for ho seemed about to fall, but he caught hold of the “port bowlines” and regained his balance. Just then tho ship carconed over onm her besm ends, lurched back again, and then stood steady as before. Nearly every one was thrown down, and some of the passengers wero badly hurt, As soon a8 we got upon our feet We B&W no more of the water-epout, but in its stead the whola sen was just as white as though it was composed of soap suds. ° We felt that it was over, aud that the noble “Jack™ had saved us by Ius cool-hezdedness ; but it was some time before we could recover fmfll the paralysis that seemed to have stricken us all, g ‘When we did recover, we felt a5 only men can feel who have been snatched from the jaws of death. Work scemed a pleasure after that, for it reminded us that we had life in us. ‘There were on board. counting the officers, crew, and all, abont 160 persons, and if that spout had struck us it wounld have sent us, ship and all, to the bottom of the sea, and no one could have known what eunk us. = Ever sinca that day I have been convinced that the City of Boston was lost in this manner, 1 suppose the water that was in the air would have weighed 10,000 tons; it couldn’t have been Jess; and as thero was brig sailing ten miles fromus inthedirection of the waterspout’sconre, and no one on board eaw it, it must have form: botween us two, aud reached its immense pro- portions in abont half an hour. i SPECIAL NOTICES.
